The first race, a three-eighths mile dash, was easy for Frank, the fleet runner owned by V. O. Breyman. The horse, well handled by W. Walter, showed in front when the starter dropped his flag and was never headed cantering under the wire a half length in front of Clanthus. who came from behind gamely to wrest the place honors from the tiring Kentucky Babe by a neck. Oregon Maid managed to be fourth. FTank was disqualified, much to the disappointment of the spectators because Ms rider had not weighed In. The Judges awarded the prizes to the next three horses in the order named. In the, second race, a one mile trot for horses ridden by ladies, Kitty nicely rated by J.,ss Mabel Lawrence, led all the way and won by seven lengths. Jack and Little Rock finished second and third. The race might have been close if these two had held their strides without breaking. Baby beat the barrier In the third race, a three eighths dash, for polo ponies, and setting a whirlwind pace into the stretch finished with plenty to spare a length to the good. Broncha outgamed Roy for the place. The lat ter was third, a half a length away. Tom Fox Breaks First. Tom Fox broke first In the fourth, race and showed the way to the turn, whe:e he was passed by the Hose of Hllo who looked to have the race won half way down the stretch. At this juncture, however, W. M. Davis who had skillfully reserved his mount, let him down and the horse shot to the front like a bullet to gallop past the judges' stand four lengths In front of the Rose, which tired a bit right at the end but lasted for the place. Tom Fox, which mali) the early running and kept in close attendance on the leaders all the way. got the show. Fannie, off In front In the Junior Hunt club event, maintained that po sition to the finish past which the flllv romped tinder a gentle hand ride by Kenneth Drake, her skillful pilot.

Sullivan down for the count and he is going to take all the time allowed him by the referee before he comes back for another mlx-up. The old gladiator felt symptoms of rheuma tism before he left Los Angeles, for Se attle, and since he arrived here his first guess that something had crept Into his bones has been verified. Sullivan's right aim Is off bad. When he attempts to spar with Jake Kllrain he raises the arm by supreme effort but he holds it aft nearly stationary as pos sible and Kilrain uses every possible endeavor not to touch it. But every now and then something happens and Sullivan, is compelled to suffer excru ciating pain. A lot of suggestions have been made but only one of them has been accepted by Sullivan. He is trying excessive heat to bake out the rheumatic pain and then he will try a complete rest. Some of the -old fighters' friends have ad vised that he try Soap Lake, the pana cea that all Washlngtoniana suggest at some time for rheumatism. Sullivan will leave the exposition next week. He will put In about three weeks trying to shake off the rheumatism and resting on John Cort's ranch. Then he may return to the fair or he may go out on a vaudeville tour. At the fair it is declared he will come back but if the rheumatic symptoms continue probably he will not IVinceton Trims Yale (Hearnt New by Lou tent Leased Wire Princetbn, N. J., June 12.

(Sueclal DisMtcb to The Journal. I Tacoma, Wash., June 12. By hitting the ball whenever the mood moved them the Portland Colts walked away with the sixth game of the present series with the Tacoma Tigers here today. Both 8amuels Hnd llurd were hit freely and presented the visitors with bases on balls whenever such a procedure would help things along. mere was an excess or politeness on the part of the Tacomans, Hurley even going; so. far as to take off his glove to a pair of horsehides that camo ca vorting out into his territory. The final score was 6 to 1, a lone tally resulting from a batting streak In the fourth in ning, saving the .Tacomans from a shut out. Klnsella was on the firing line for Casey's Colts and he was as nervous as a small boy creeping home from a for bidden swim. He got so very nervous that in three innings It was necessary to send out another twlrler to warm up before he would settle down and throw the ball over the plate, which proved all that was necessary to keep the locals from scoring. Oregon Boys Start Triple. The game wan relieved somewhat by a triple play executed by Tacoma in the eighth Inning. Staton oeeuped third and Mullln second when Murray came to bat. The latter slammed the ball on a line and Uurd, who was pitching, man aged to get In its way long enough to send it skimming into Coleman's hands, still on the fly. Both are University of Oregon boys. Staton had started for home and Coleman tossed it to the atelier, who tagged Staton out ami sent It bck to second in time to catch Mul len before lie could return to the sack. Score: TACOMA. A B. R.

XOTKS OF THE CJA.ME Back in third dace after the hardest kind of a fight. Come on, you Seals. Tet the Beavers play all next week like they have against the Senators and there will be a decided drop In the Mohlerites' per centage. Breen held the error record yester day. He made four and Olson followed with three to his credit. In the two and one third innings which Graney pitched, he gave six bases on balls, while Fitzgerald passed out only two during the entire game. Garrett did not Issue a single pass. Johnson reached first h se pirv time at bat yesterday, and score? twice.

Multitudinous errors and hard hitting on the part of the Beavers, combined with a score which fluctuated for and against Portland five times during the performance yesterday, went to make up the most peculiar game of baseball seen in these confines this season. Portland won, 7 to 6. Not until the ninth Inning, when with Oandll on second and two out. House was robbed of a two bagger by Ken nedy in left garden, after a briUiant sprint, did Portland really have the plav cinched beyond measure of chance. Considering the seven errors regis tered against the Portland swampers the fans are fain to believe that the fates atone intervened to save M.C Credie's mighty men from defeat. With bo many different and distinct features potpourried into one mere game of baseball. It is difficult to at tempt a summary, without eliminating some and obscuring others. Some few were the inability of Graney to stand up against the Senators, the 10 opportune hits smacked over by the Beavers, and the fact that many of the runners who scored were those who had been walked by the twlrlers. Graney Grows Oenerous. In the first Inning the Senators pulled off their first score with the aid of Graney. who generously walked three men. Shlnn and Doyle, the first two batters up, were passed, Blanagan singled, filling the bases and then to top it all. the Southpaw passed Gandil and forced Shlnn across the plate. Mc Credle made a motion to derrick Gran ey, hut was not allowed to do so in the course of ttie inning. Haymer. House and Jansing ended the grief in the In ning, House fanning for the only time In the game Hut In their half the Beavers man fully faced the, lead and with the aid of two hits pulled off two runs. Olsen walked, Breen went out to Fitzgerald unassisted. Ryan doubled, scoring Olsen and Johnson, following McCredie, who went out on a grounder to Gandil. doubled, scoring Ryan. Ort ended the inning by going out When the third Inning came to an end the Senators were again In the lead, having passed two men over the plate on a base on balls for Gandil, a hit and an error. When Gandil walked Raymer sacrificed him to second, Graney to Ort. House next came up with a lilt and on olscn's error the two scored. Jansing was safe on the miscue, but Graham and Fitzgerald died easily. Again In the fourth the Senators got a run on Shinn's single and Breen's error in handling Flanagan's binglc Sacramento could do nothing In the fifth, but Portland succeeded, riy good luck, two hits and two errors. In push ing in three runs. Breen singled. Ryan as sa rr on F1 1 zgcra Id's error. Me Cr".1le flew out to Doyle. Johnson dou bled, scoring: Breen and Ryan. Ort was safe on Raymer'-i error and Johnson scored. In the sixth Innlntr Sacramento got two runs on a hit and Breen's two er rors and in..ths?lr half the Beavers oasse.l over one with an error and a hit. The Senators were unable to get more and the Beavers won the game wjth Johnson's double In the seventh. The score : SACRAMENTO. H. PO. A.
