If he haa the number of the McCredle Ites. Did Mohler chsnged the batting order ; Of his team yesterday and substituted a few players. He played second base himself, put Weaver in center and "canned" Hunky Bhaw to right field. The change worked harmoniously, aa each man had plenty to do, and got away without an error. ' The field waa in fair condition after .the evening's rain, but the outfield was I can't find any word that would con v rey to you what I mean. When Krueger - went after McArdle's drive In the first . Inning he plowed up the water like the - j battleship Paloma. All you could see was the water shooting into the air. j Claude Berry, the dapper catcher of the Seals, wanted Umpire Finney to call - It quits In the first inning, when a "lit- - tie" Oregon mist covered Claude's dome, but the umps refused until it came down : too hard, and then they all hiked for the grandstand. Wasn't It awful, Ella? r Sure. i Sensational fielding seemed to be In I order during yesterday's game, for sev-'' eral of the boys made catches that bor- ! - dered on thl sensational style. Powell's catch of Krueger's drive was one of the ! best of the day. After making a fast i sprint and copping the pill. Powell turn- ' bled head over heele but held on to the ! ball. He shone on another occasion ! When he tried to get Chadbourne's single ' , en his snoetops. He Just missed it and ;, In doing so tore the knee out of his trousers. Kid Mohler went up Into the clouds in the fourth inning after Buddy Ryan's - drive and robbed Buddy of a slngla Bobber! Thief! and many other epithets were hurled good naturedly at Mohler. - The fans gave him a t ig hand. s tCuhn'S throw to Shtehan at third bas In the .fifth Inning was as accurate a peg as one would tare to sec. Powell, a fast man on the bags, was looking off .third when JCuhn ht the ball over nailing hint a foot from the bag. Some " peg. Red, and you want to keep it up. j Buddy Ryan made one of the star V catches of the day when he copped Ten- nant's Tly 10 rignt. after a hard run. a. There were two Seals on the bases and " two down when Tennant slammed the ball, and If Ryan had not been on the - Job twn rune would surely have scored.

Keep U up,-o a-Weavera, ;; V) ; and How They Are Perpetrated ( While it it impossible by any amount of warning or exposure to protect those gullible people who will insist on believing that in this world something can be obtained for nothing, and who therefore, fall easy victims to the unscrupulous, still there are some "Frauds" in the piano business that should be laid bare for the protection of reputable makers and dealers, as well as that portion of the public which asks and expects only full value for the amount of money ex pended. f Among the many "Dodges" used to gull the public are the mock auction of furniture in a private house, including a piano for which "great renown" is claimed, the "sacrifice" which "a lady about to go to Europe" is always will ing to make; the "wonderful bargain" to be obtained by addressing some "Pri vate Party" or "Transfer oVStorage Company"; the "Prize Puzzle or Dot Count ing Contest," during which some manufacturer who is worth only a few thou sand dollars gives away several millions in "fake checks" or "purchasing cou pons"; the "was $550, now $167 sales," 'liistcnry-making reduction sales," "going at half price saleT," false "retiring from business sales" and many others. J All these cheats originated in the East but as soon as each one was advertised in the Eastern papers it was copied by the "circus" or "trick" dealers in Portland. $ Cheap pianos bearing a name closely similar to that of some well-known maker are often offered at private sale, at the furniture sales, and even by some unscrupulous dealers. Such names as "Mason & Hamilton," "Mason & Hamp den," "Hamlin & Mason," "Mason & Hampton" are all evidently intended to trade on the reputation of the costliest piano in the world (the Mason & Ham lin), while similar attempts have been made to trade on the high reputation of the Hardman, Krakauer and other distinguished instruments. As every piano of even decent reputation has a fair value in the trade itself, it is self-evident that it is not likely to be sold at a "sacrifice." If the so-called "Bargains" now being advertised in Portland by the circus piano concerns Were real, as their advertisements claim, the substantial Healers would buy them in stantly; but when the buyer is not familiar with the value of ari article, it Is easy for the salesman to add some to the price in order to allow for reductions, and it often happens that the reductions do not equal the addition. f 1 The Wiley B. Allen Co.'s immense business has been developed upon a be lief in the common sense of our public meaning by "our" public those people who realize that it is good judgment and economy to pay fair prices to get good pianos. J Our business consists exclusively of selling Pianos and Player Pianos, of the most advanced types, at prices which represent their actual retail values. We have no profits to add in order to cover the expense involved by providing gift inducements to purchasers. J Sensationalism and misrepresentation find no place in our business. Our goods speak for themselves. They are well made, fully guaranteed, and sold at the same identical prices that are asked on the floors of their manufacturers, whether in Boston, New York or Chicago. Investigation will convince you and will save you money. i - T Do You Love the Trusts Enough to Pay Four Profits on Your Shoes? Every year the American people pay Millions of Dollars more than they need to for their shoes. They pay Four Excess Profits the Hide Trust's profit, the Leather Trust's profit,1 profits to the Leather Jobber and the Shoe Jobber. Endicott-Johruon shoes are the only shoes in this country that are free from these four profits. Endicott, Johnson Si Co. buy their hides in the open market of the world. No profits to the Hide Trust. They tan in their own tanneries every foot and every pound of leather they put into their shoes. No profits to the Leather Trust and the Leather Jobber. They sell direct from the factory to your home shoe dealer. No profits to the Shoe Jobber. Endicott-Johnson shoes reach your feet 50 cents to f 1.00 cheaper than any other shoes of the same appearance and style.
