"I knew Just what my men could do," FaUl Coach Victor M. Place, after the game, "and felt reasonably afe In predicting a victory. I know, and every man who haa played football knows, that It li out of the Ques tion for a team with no hard practice to win from an aggre gation that goes In for hard knocks dally. The Multnomah players are (rood men and all they need is praetioa to make a winning team." "Of course I am surprised," said John Horan, manager for the Multnomah Amateur Athletic club team, "but we have no ex cuses to offer for our defeat. The college boys were In better condition and' they deserved a victory by tbalr playing. Most of us are still soft but we shall endeavor to become hardened for our future cortUsta, It Is now our purpose to train faithfully for the Oregon game Thanksgiv ing day." Dave Jordan, one of the best ends the club haa ever had and who captained the team last year had the following to say of Mult nomah's defeat: "Multnomah wag clearly outplayed, although Washington had some good luck. There are two or three weak spots in the club team which will have to be strengthened and more modern plays will have to be Introduced and perfected to enable them to win the big games. Pratt. Horan. Lltt, Dow lirig and Stott played, the game for Multnomah. Bagshaw, Clark and Trott were tha stars for Washington. The collegians play well together for an early gama but should have been penalised a number of times for offside playing and starting before the ball was in play. The Mult nomah team was materially weakened by the loss of Loner-gan." 4 ' In i m X) WVrm, Say, Multnomah, ''"IMiWJLV SJW,,1, CHICAGO TEAM (I I PUAMDini IILH UllHIIiriUll Cubs Outfield, Outbat and Outplay Detroit Amer i leans in Series. .

Nine minutes after play had been called in the Washington-Multnomah olub football game yesterday afternoon, the speedy collegians crossed their op ponents' goat line for the first touch down. They repeated the performance in the middle of the second half. Mult nomah's giants, with practically no hard training, were powerless against their younger competitors, although at times there was a flash of that old spirit which has made the club games famous. Once before the Washington uni versity and Multnomah met on the local field and the 'varsity was given a se vere drubbing. For years the Evergreen tam haa been anxious to wipe out this 4fnt and the oDDOrtunity came yes terday. Coach Place announced before the game that there would be little trou ble In defeating the wearers of the winged "M," and his assertions proved truthful. aok of dinger In Game. There was a noticeable lack of dash and ginger in the plays of both teams, although the lassitude of the clubmen was moat notlceaoie. fiace s young tern had hetter wind and better exeeu tion of plays than the wearers of the wlneed "M." but they were slow in starling and their offensive game was a hit raggrea. It is doubtful if more fumbling has r hpn seen on Multnomah field. Both teams were careless in handling the spheroid, Dut mere was noi so mucn xeuse for the collegians. The only exhibition of real football came Just before Washington made the first touchdown. Bagshaw, who was then J laying quarter, ripped out a volley of signals which called for a succession of rapid evolutions. The clubmen seemed bewildered at this snappy playing, and try as they could, it was Impossible for them to atop the progress of the ball toward their goal. Washington used the forward pass and quarterback kick time after time for good gains. Bagshaw has the feat exceptionally well for mo early in the season and never hesitated to use either when there was chance for success. In fact the Washington backs showed a spirit of recklessness in their forward pass plays that amazed old football men. seemingly wunoui noticing whi t.h ball would llcht they would hurl it with all their strength and it In variably dropped into the hands of nine waiting wearer of a blue Jersey. The element of luck entered largely Into thin play. On the other hand when and had he bean given the right kind of support would Lave been a consist ent ground gainer. Pratt played a great defensive game and time after lime broke up the trick plays started around his side. Dowllng was a tower at right end end his defensive playing stood out nromlnentlv. Always down the news on punts he succeeded In downing the Washington backs in their tracks a number of times. Horan played a good game at leu tackle, but was in poor condition. Owens was one of the best ground gainers the club team had. Bagshaw and Clarke were tne stenar attractions of the "V eleven. Both made long runs that ranched the safety back. Matthews put up a wonderful article of football at end and will be one of the best In the northwest when he la at his best. Place changed his men about so that all could have a chance under fire. He brought along the 17 best players In college and every one had a chance to buck up against the older players. He has as many more at home who, he thinks, oould put up nearly as good a game. Place believes he has the best team in the northwest and will put up a strong bid for the championship. The Oame In Detail. Immediately after the referee's whis tle announced the opening of the game Captain Bagshaw of Washington kicked 45 yards to JL.1U. Multnomah began a rushing game, but was stopped short by the collegians, and the clubmen were forced to punt Washington could do nothing and was forced to kick. After an exchange of punts Multnomah fum bled a double pass after a five-yard '"with the ball in their possession the visitors began a march down the field. Clarke tore off 10 yards before he was downed by Pratt. Pratt downed Willis almost in his tracks, and Bagshaw tried a quarterback kick, which netted IB yards. Horan downed Bagshaw on a quarterback run, and Dowllng threw Clarke for a loss. Bagshaw pulled off another quarter back kick, which placed the collegian 24 yards nearer the Multnomah goal. Willis tore off five yards through the line, and Bagshaw came back with a forward pass, which placed the pigskin on the clubmen's doorstep. Trott Comes to the Scratch. Trott was called upon to plunw through the Multnomah line, and he was equal to ti occasion, landing the ball squarely between the goal posts. The first touchdown was made nine minutes after play began. Horan charged on the ball the moment It touched the ground for the gonl kick and rapped it on the nose as it sailed In the air. It went away wide of the mark and the score was 6 to 0. Lionergan received wrenched shoul der and retir-d from the game. No m"ro scoring was done In the first half, although the visitors at one time succeeded in getting within the 20-yard line. The second half started by fitott kicking to Willis. Washington lost the ball on downs one of the few Instances of bad Judgment in falling to put on the third down. Willis hurt his hip early in trie sec ond half and was for-p1 to leave the field. Ward relieved him at fullhnck. Rhortlv afterward Tegtmler went out, to be followed bv Trott. who had been playing a splendid game at left half. Bagshaw was shifted to half, and Pr- ker went in at quarter, plaving nn able game for the rest of the "naif, 'lnhertv was also tanen out ana me piayers shifted to give Mackay a chance. Har ris also relieved Ward In the back field. Some Spectacular Gains. It was (hiring this half that the two most spectacular gains of the day were- made. Little Kagshaw slipped tnrougn the rlg'iit side of Multnomah's line and before he could be stopped by Stott, who was playing safety, had covered 85 yards. Shortly afterward Clarke plunged through the Multnomah line, eluded t ie defending backs, straight armed an opponent and reeled off 85 vards also before he was brought to the earth bv Stott. I.ate In the half, with the ball 10 yards from Multnomah's gonl line, the Washington boys essayed a line plunge which came near being disastrous. Ward and Clarke were both on hand wnen the fumble occurred, and the former grabbed the pigskin and planted it on Portland territory for the second touchdown. Bagshaw failed to kick goal on ac count of Multnomah blocking. The remainder of the game the bat tle waged beck and forth near the cen ter of the field, although at one time it was within nine yards of the 'varsity goal line. Xilnenp of the Team.

The event was a tryout for both teams and showed them well lined up for a season of hard, grinding con tests on the gridiron.

There are more honest people to be found on the race track than the general public believe. An evidence of this assertion is the number Of lost things turned into the bureau established for that purpose by the Plnkerton agency. Some people grow so excited during a race and Just after It that they forget all else and have been known to leave coats, umbrel las, glasses and pocktbooks on the seat beside them when they departed. Women are more numerous in this re spect than the men. These articles are picked up by someone passing and In nine cases out of ten they are turned in. One day last week the following articles were posted as having been found and awaiting a claimant: A sum of money, two diamond lOCKets, a parasoi, gum watch, two emblems, press badge, rail road ticket rain coat and a fountain pen. All the owners of these articles have to do is to prove his or her claim and sign a receipt and their property Is restored. A man several weeks ago, while in the betting ring lost a roll of money amounting to 280. He reported It to the bureau and while he was giving a description of the roll it was turned in by a New York lawyer, who found It. It was immediately restored to Its owner, and then came the usual cold bottle. Billy DuBols Very Lucky. Billy Du Bois, the clubhouse com missioner, Is Indeed a lucky individual. At the Brighton Beach meeting lie bought Charles Edwards for $8,500 and ttien won $18,000 In stakes right off the reel with him. besides picking up sev eral good bets. At the same meeting he purchased Nealon for $14,000 and at his very next start at Sheepshead Bay got 6 to 1 against him and bet enough which, added to the stake money, won the horse out and a few thousand be sides. Several days ago he grabbed Running Account, a Kepne cast off out of a selling race for $2,500. started him three times, once at 7 to 1, the second time at 6 to 1 and again at 10 to l and won all three races, adding to his ex chequer $15,000 and has a filly which Is easily worth $7,500. Something About Clockerl. It Is only In recent years that "dock ers," the men who tihie every horse that appears on the tracks for workouts, have become so prominent In racing cir cles. It Is quite the proper caper now for each layer to have his own particu lar "docker." Many of the big bettors are similarly supplied, so it Is a hard matter for a liorse to receive a "work out" and get away with It without 200 or 300 "dockers" noting It. The "dock ers" tips are now quite the thing around the New York tracks. "What are the 'dockers' playing?" Is a frequent expression heard In the ring. It Is often the case that the "dockers" money will force a horse into favorit ism, so much respect have the layers for the tlmetakers' Judgment. Most of these dockers receive $10 a day, but a great many of them get $15 a day. It is an Interesting sight before betting be gins to see a hundred or more layers setting In the grandstand, each with his "docker" receiving reports of trials, horses carded to race thnt day, have done In the early morning hours. Jockeys Have Swell Tdraonts. In former years, after the day's rac ing was over, the stable Jockeys gen erally returned to the barn, helped to feed the horses and do a few stunts in the wav of cleaning up. At candle light most of them had retired to their cots, located In a box stall. Things are dif ferent now. No stables for the leading "drivers" nowadays. It's the big hotels and all that goes with It for them. Thev are also becoming so fashionable that most of them have their own turn outs. Miller, as a rule, drives to the track in a basket phaeton behind a roan pony. NIcol has a runabout and a verv fast trotter. But It Is to little Rddl Dugan that the palm must be given. He has 1nst bought a big red automobile, which he usectn golnir to and from the track. As a rule. In the evening ho takes all of his fellow riders who are not fortu nate in owning their own rigs, to their barns in Sheepshead bay. where all the riders live. It's one of the Interesting sights to see Pugan's machine leava the track wnn eignt or ten iockcvs in It. and with the driver In the chauffeur's seat, and speed up ocean avenue at a i 20-mfIe clip. v (United Trout by Special Leaaed Wire.) Detroit. Mich., Oct. 12. Champions of the world. This is the title the Chicago National league team won this afternoon when they defeated their rlvuls in the American league the IJe trolts for the fourth consecutive time. Outbattlng, outfiolding and outplay ing the Tigers In every point, the Cubs demonstrated their absolute superiori ty. In only one game did the American league champions have a look-in. That wnn I he flmt contest In Chicago, a drawn battle after IS innings ana which would have been the Tigers' but for an error by Schmidt In the ninth Inning, permitting the Cubs to tie the score, lay a Steady Game. In the other battles the Cubs showed to advantage, played the steadier game and with their pitchers In excellent form, took, four straight games from the Tigers. True, the advantage was with Chica go. They practically won their pen nant a month ago. and then took things easy, while Jennings' men fought al most to the last day to capture the coveted American kague ribbon. The strain of the last lu days of the season weakened the Tigers.

Cubs Play Great Oame. Today's game was a hard-fought contest. The Cubs, even without the aid of their manager. Chance, who was laid up from being hit by a pitched ball yesterday, played with a determin ation to make it four straight and suo ctedej. "Three-Fingered' Brown, held In reserve for an emergency, was In the box and the Detroit batsmen were helpless. Urown wak especially effec tive with men on bases and was always master of the situation. Only one De troit batter reached third. Mullln also pitched a good game for the Tigers, who displayed a determina tion to at least check the Cubs' win ning streak but the National league champions scored one run In each of the first two Innigs. This gave them the game and the title. In the first Inning Slagle walked. The next two men were easy out. Sheckard flying to Jones and Howard fanning. Then Slagle stole second and came home on Btelnfeldt's single. Kllng ended the Inning with a fly to Cobb. Score la the Second. The only other run of the game was scored in the second. Evers reached first on Coughlin's low throw. After Schulte fouled to Archer. Tinker sin gled to right and he and Evers worked a double steal. Brown walked, and with the bases full Slagle sent a grounder to Mullln who could not catch Evers at the plate and the Chicago second baseman scored the last run of the series. At the conclusion of the game the Chicago rooters, who had accompanied he Cubs to Detroit, made a wild dem onstration.
