(Pacific Coast League.) 34 29 5404 Portland .... Jake Thielman, star of the north and longed for in the city of the world’s fair, took to the mound yesterday af- ternoon at Recreation Park, but even his presence in the box could not bring a game to the Brownies. For seven innings they had the commuters stowed away. It was only for seven. The next spasm was a heart-breaker for the admirers of Dugdale’s clouters. Three commuters arrived and then it was off. Score, 4 to 2. It was one grand game of ball, ex- citing and wholesome from round to round. Portland flelded perfectly and hit hard. Oakland did not do so well in the field, but Mr. Schlafley was a regular four-miler on the sacks and was also daring enough to tear to the plate on a short hit and thereby tie up the score. It was 2 to 1 in favor of the Oregon- ians when Oakland came up to take its wallops at the ball in round eight. Kruger did not infuse any en- thusiasm into the Oakland fans when he cut three wide swaths in the atmos- phere. It looked a little better after Moskiman and Schlafley got on the bags—each by rapping the ball gently but firmly cut to right field. Along came Julie Streib with an easy one to the pitcher, forcing Moskiman at third. That did not 100k so inviting either, but Old Red Devereaux sneaked softly up to the rubber and landed that ball out to left field on a line. Schlafley tore a' ay from second and came right to the plate. A good throw would have nailed him for fair, but the throw was not good and, therefore, the score was tied. Streib ambled around to third on this bingle and Brick stole second on the first ball pitched to Francks. The next one came salling up lovely and bigs Buck liked it and shot it out past Beck. Streib and Devereaux trotted in and then-it was really all over. Cooper pitched a grand game of ball, theugh getting. hitchardjn spots. Tay Streib started to play short, but hurt his zjkle while fielding the first ball hit. He retired and Buck Francks went out to work. He saved the game. In the seventh,. after. Thielman had doybled to the flagpole and arrived on third on Drennan’s out, McCreedie hit a fly directly over Francks' head, It was one of those balls that gc for hits in any man's lezgue. Francks got one mitt on it and executed a catch that made the people yell involuntarily.

Travis and E. D. Blackwell started to play the final tie of thirty-six holes for the amateur golf championship at Sand- wich to-day in a high wind, which greatly affected the driving. Travis won the first in five to six and, running down one of his long putts on the sec- ond green, became two up. Blackwell missed a hard putt for the third, which was halved, and he lost the fourth, where Travis holed out a long putt. The American also won the fifth by getting down a fifteen-yard putt and then missed a short putt for the sixth, where he sustained his first loss. The seventh was halved and Travis won the eighth, where Blackwell missed a five- foot putt. The Scotchman took the nirth hole, where Travis drove into a bunker. The American was three up at the turn, his outward score approxi- mately being thirty-five strokes. WIND PROVES PUZZLING. The American found the wind dif- ficult and lost the tenth. The next two were halved, and Blackwell ought to have reduced his deficit to one at the thirteenth. His putting, however, was bad and he lost the holc. Thereafter he never looked like drawing level, and Travis finished the first round with four up. His score by strokes was eighty, Blackwell taking eighty-three. Travis, throughout, gave the same remarkable display of putting which has gained him here the reputation of being the finest exponent Iin the world of the short game. He was never in the slightest danger throughout the tournament. The gallery numbered about 500. Although their sympathies were almost unanimously with Black- well, they could not refrain from ap- plause at Travis’' brilliant game, and the American’s superiority over the Scotchman was admitted, coupled with expressions of regret that an older and a more representative golfer was not pitted against the American in the fizal. About a score of Americans fol- lowed the game. The Britons extracted some comfort from the fact that Travis was born in Australia. The best feeling was manifested on both sides, and the winner was heartily eheered. BREACH OF ETIQUETTE. { The only breach of golf etiquette oe- curred during the aficrnoom, when a | few spectators applauded Travis’' fail- ure in putting at the third hole. This offense was instantly hissed .y the ma- | jority of those present. -.s a rule the American’s brilliant game elicited | bur-ts of applause almost every | hole. The large Scotch contingent was | the most ready to con. le Travis’ su- | | at periority, even before the afternoon round was started. Bilackwell, after | the match, said to a representative of | the Assoclated Press: “Trav is a great golfer. He deserved to win. I | was a trifie off my game du ‘ng the morning and lost £ veral holes I ought | to have won. The strain told o1 me.” Travis must defend the championship on this side next year. The Prestwick, Ayr:iire, course has been selected for the contest. — e ——— ACCUSED OF DEFRAUDING NUMEROUS DRESSMAKERS Harry Singer, Alias Weiss, From New York, Is Arrested on Three Charges of Burglary.
