' Time after time great fielding stunts were pulled off that saved the plate ; from being dented by the Invaders. Now . j Billy Spaas would cut off a -Mt and again Tommy Sheehan vould crush Into some well Intended play. On tha other - side It was Wares who broke up things : when the Beavers wer on the verge of i crowding Lively off J, the eminence. Wares accepted It chances perfectly, . and some of them were most speotaou lar. ' : ".. -..r .-:,,,; AU rinds of Baseball. ; All kinds of baseball was tried by "Managers MoCredla and Wolverton, and for three successive times MoCredle sent Rapps la with 'Instructions to sacrifice, and' thrice, did the roaring, one carry-out the boss" orders perfectly. , - While SfSen was touched up for more bits than Lively during the 18 rounds, ho kept them well scattered, except tn hna mmn mhn thftv. hnnnhert thrM at fl them, but only secured one run.

With Swander gone, Mltze dou bled to left field bleachers. Llvely'sout did not allow him to take third,' but he raced home on Maggart's double to the same territory. - Borne JTlfty rieldlng. " Wares Singled and stole .second, but Maggart was held on third, dying there when Eheehan retired Hogan, In the sixth round Wolverton's grounder was prettily handled by Sheehan, while Billy Speas backed up against the "Bull Dur ham" sign after a bard run and gath ered Cutshaw's skyer lu. Although Portland had been hitting the ball, nothing In the line of a score was apparent until, tha. ninth. Qlaon drew a pass ang Rapps sacrificed. Fish er's out put the shortstop on third, and he was there when Casey came to the "Sat. Although Lively put on all sorts of steam there was "ease in Casey's manners," and, picking out a nice one, he slammed it; into left field for. a long blngla that scored Olson.

I was as dippy as the rest Even Murphy was screaming With delight 'when the Beavers tied the score in both Instances. Olson played great ball around that short station.

He stole third when everybody waa asleep. , Casey's drive In the ninth tied the score for the Beavers. Casey went to third on Sheehan's drive. Oh, there were ever so rrjany blngles.

Sheehan of the Hyperion club, Des Moines, on tha 86th green at the Denver Country club this afternoon, failed to hole a put for a half, and Barry G. Legg of Minneapolis retained his title as transmisslsslppl golf champion, after one of the most heart-breaking matches la the history of the trophy. A huge gallery that bad followed the two golfers clear around the course in the last half of the final round stood breathless around the last green while Sheehan carefully measured the dis tance to the hole and prepared to put His ball lay hargjy two feet from the hole and had he gone down he would have halved the hole and thrown the match into extra holes. The Des Moines boy was nervous, however, His ball disappeared from the sight of the spectators, whirled around the edge of the cup and stopped on the rim. Instantly Sheehan picked up his ball and resigned the hole and the match to Legg, whose ball lay within two inches of the cup at the time. I I (By the International News Service,) Spokane, Aug. 20.

London, Aug. 20 A polo team 1I1 ko to America to play In the spring, but not, to try to bring back the interna, tlonal cup. : Polo is being played umkr American rules here so that it can be seen where the American rules are hot ter than the English. Lord Harrington, who although 06 years old, still plays regulpxly, and Lord Woodhouso, holr to the Earl of Klmbrr ly and back for the old Cantabs, are In , favor or making a change in England' a rules. The Earl of Harrington saldr "I am entirely in favor of the adoption of the American rules in England. ; Tby make the game faster and If adopted our players would have to learn to bit :' straighter and , harder than : they da , now," -.-v.. '- Lord Woodbouse said: "As a back X like the game under 'American rules hot ter than I do under ours. Tha play is , a lot faster". 'v .i... a-r. . W. S. Buckmaster, captain of the old Cantabs, said: ' "While the game U faster, the polo is not so good, and I ' don't think there is any likelihood of ; Kurllngham adopting the 'American rules. Then the strain oq tha ponies lif Increased enormously and practically all ' the fine points of the game sacrificed for speod. American polo is fast But it is not enjoyable, nor are there nS many fine points in It as in our Englia.t gam-" Reginald Grenfell ofthe old Etonian has this opinion: "Playing without off side makes a brighter game. It favors good bitters and hard gallopers. On the whole l am not in favor of any change being made in our rules. What we would gain is speed by adopting tha American' rules. Then the strain on the ponies is increased enormously and practically all the fine points of the game sacrificed for speed.' American polo is fast "Again, the pace at which the Amerl can game is played puts a premium on speed In ponies. Cleverness Is merely secondary, and It means additional ex pense to all first class players. . n ",.-Y American League Games. (Uolt4 Press Uuid Wire.) t Boston, Aug. 20.
