Coach George McMillan, of the Multno mah Club team, left for Seattle last night on the 11:45 train, together "with the fol lowing players: Joe Pratt, Klrkley, Kel Jar, Van Voorhles. Mare Pratt, Tltcomb, Stott. Kerrigan, Bishop, Cook and Smith. Multnomah will line up this afternoon at Seattle against the strong eleven from the University of "Washington to settle the championship question. Taking all things into consideration, Multnomah should win this game by about two touchdowns, for, while the Washing ton men may have the advantage in weight in a few instances, their linte is hot the equal of Multnomah's either in weight or experience. They can only liope to score if they get within striking distance of Multnomah's goal line and Spiedell works one of his famous place-kicks for five points. Spiedell hae already worked four of these kicks in games with Northwest teams, making every one he tried, and when it Is taken. Into consideration that most ot them were kicked from the 30 and 35-yard lines, it will be seen that he is a danger ous man, to play against. Both of the teams have won all the games they have played this season, being the only ones in the Northwest race that liave such a record, and the result of to day's game will virtually settle the fact aa to which is the champion team of the Pacific Northwest. When seen last night Coach McMillan said: "The men will play the best game that they can put up, and will do all in their power to keep Spiedell from getting near enough to make a kick. We have a light team, but I think that we will give a-' go'od account of ourselves." Charles McDonell accompanied the team and will act as official today. Manager Buckenmeyer went along to take care of the finances, and Dr. Woodruff to attend to the damaged players. A few days ngo Coach McMillan wrote to the Washington manager aa follows: "The members of our team are all bona fide members of the club, and are all, reg istered amateurs. I think you will find them as clean amateurs as any college team you have met or will meet this sea son. "Our club has taken a very strong stand on clean sport, and the result is our team is made up of bona-fide club members. It is the lightest team the club has ever turned out. and, I think, lighter than your team, and If they defeat you next Satur-. day It will be because they outplay you, not on strength and weight." The line-up today will be: Multnomah. Position. Washington. 132 Pratt, J LER Tlbbalsl34 lTlKirkley (Capt)LTR ZigristlCT 172 McMillan LGR Newton 172 16oKellar C .. SchererlSS 172 Van Voorhles.R GL.

UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON, Seat tle, Nov. 14. (Speclal.)--Tomorrow after noon the University of Washington foot ball team will meet the strong aggrega tion from the Multnomah Amateur Ath letic Club, of Portland, on the Athletic Park gridiron. The game will undoubted ly be the hardest and fiercest football battle that will take place in the North weht this season. Up to date the univer sity boys have not been beaten. The Ore gon Agricultural College, which played a tie game with the University of Oregon, was easily defeated by a score of 16 to 6. In the game against the University of Idaho, Washington won with 10 to 0. The last game played, which was with Whit man Collefie, was won by Washington with a score of 11 to C. In the contest with Multnomah the Seattle players do not ex pect to win. They realize that their op ponents have one of the strongest teams on the Coast, and If able to hold the score to a couple of touchdowns, the boys will feel well repaid for their hard work. READY FOR BIG GAME. Oregon and Albany Will Play for Championship. ALBANY COLLEGE, Albany, Or., Nov. 34. (Special.) Tomorrow, on the Rambler Park gridiron, will occur the greatest football game in collegiate circles for the season 1902-3. It is the final contest for the college championship of Oregon, be tween the teams of the University of Ore gon and Albany College. These two teams played a scoreless game early In the season, and neither aggregation has been defeated In the numerous games played since, which has served to empha size the confidence of each in Its own In vincibility. However, it may be remarked that the University of Oregon eleven has not yet been scored against this season, while last Saturday, at Monmouth, the team from the State Normal .School, at that place, succeeded in scoring one touchdown and goal on the college boys from Albany. Yet It is claimed by the home team that the points were scored on a fumble, and that just such a "fluke" would not occur again In an entire sea son, and should not be reckoned in con sidering tho relative strength of the teams. However this may be, local foot ball cranks predict that tomorrow Ram bler Park "will be the sceno of one of the most stubbornly contested football games ever witnessed In Albany, and opinions as to the probable victor seem to be about evenly divided. It may be said to the credit of Eugene that tomorrow's game is due largely to her bigness of heart In consenting to fill a date with Albany which should have been filled by another. The result of the recent game between- the University of Oregon and the Oregon Agricultural Col lege was the complication of tho football situation In Oregon, so far as collegiate championship honors go. In the opinion of local enthusiasts, last Saturday's game formed the second angle of a triangular situation, "which can only be completed by a game between Albany College and Ore gon Agricultural College. Albany College and Oregon and Oregon and the Agricul tural College have played scoreless games, and the only solution to the prob lem seemed to be a game between the elevens from tho Agricultural College and Albany College. But the absolute refusal of the "Farmers" to consider any over tures' for a game with the Albany boys materially changes the situation, In so far as It places the collegiate champion ship 'plum just beyond the reach of the Agricultural College eleven. With the Agricultural College team eliminated from the contest, the championship rests between the gridiron gladiators from the .University of Oregon and the Albany Col lege, and tomorrow's game will determine to which team belong tho honorst unless perchance there should be another score less , game. , The Albany boys are in excellent shape, and have put in a week's faithful work under Coach Edwards. With every man In his accustomed position and in the pink of football condition, the college boys should win the game tomorrow, if it is in them to do so, while should they be defeated, they cannot but acknowledge that. In the boys from Eugene, they have met their superiors on the gridiron. Coach Edwards, when asked whether he thought his team could win the game, said he did not care to make any such statement. "Yet," said he, "we will hold the university boys down; there will be no walk-over for either team." Quarter-back Snyder, who played in thp game with the university early In the season, will not don a uniform tomorrow, owing to a bad ankle. His position will be taken by McBride, a young but heady player, who experienced work on the sec ond team last year, and participated in some of the games this season, showing up to advantage. Excepting the quarter back, the Albany team will line up as in the previous game with Eugene. The weights and line-up will be: Oregon. Position.

Seventeen men of the -varslty football squad left this afternoon for Albany, where they will again contest with Albany College team for victory. The men are all In good shape, and have fully recovered from the game last Satur day with the Corvallls eleven. The team In gerieral will put up a better game to morrow than it has at any previous time during the season. The men are really in better condition; they are better coached, and they know their chances for the championship of the Northwest depends wholly upon the result of the conflict. The prevailing belief here Is that the uni versity has the strongest collegiate team in the s,tate. and that victory Saturday will surely be with the home men unless flukes and fumbles wrest it from them. The team has been doing some excellent work during the week, and much im provement has been made in passing the ball. A large crowd of students and Eu gene people will be in Albany for the game, many having left this afternoon, and others will go tomorrow. The follow ing men were taken: Center, McKinney; guards. Kerron,Frlzzell 'ox Earl;, tackles, Thayer, Watts; ends. Jordan, Chandler; quarter, Murphy; halves, Goodrich and Payne; full-hack. Templeton; substitutes, Latourette, Penland, Casteel, Starr and Hale.

Hill Takes the Offensive and Forces Opponents to tPlay Kicking Game. The team from Hill Military Academy won from the Bishop Scott Academy eleven yesterday afternoon on Multnomah Field by the very close score of 2 to 0, made by a safety behind Bishop Scott's goal line. The game was exciting from tart to finish, and the play was charac terized by fierce line plunges, and hard runs with the ball on the kick-offs. The Hill team kept the ball In Bishop Scott territory must of the game, and were within scoring distance several times, but at the critical moments Bish op Scott braced up, and kept the ball from being carried over by the Hill men. When the 'Bishop Scott players got pos session of the spheroid, they punted out from danger, but on one attempt Swope was nailed behind the line, and the ball went down for a safety, giving Hill the two points that won the game Van Houten backed up the Hill line in a way that won admiration from the spec- ELECTED CAPTAIN OF THE TRACK TEAM Clyde A.

Lewis will be back for the sprints. Several men are in school who have had experience in the Jumps and weights, making the prospect at present very bright for a' suc cessful season. Manager Earl is making an effort to secure the services of "W. O. Trine for trainer, and it Is likely Trine will help the boys out. Trine Is the most successful trainer the 'varsity boys have ever had', and it is a notable fact that they have never met defeat under his efficient direction.- tators, and Martin worked his punts and end runs very successfully. Holman was the star of the Hill team, running back the ball many yards on the punts and kick-off, cleverly breaking" through the wall of men that were lined up against him. Kelly at center put up a strong, heady game, and won merited applause. For 'Bishop Scott Frank Swope played a remarkable game, punting well at every attempt and making good yardage when given the ball. Captain Smith put up heady ball and kept his opponents guess ing when Bishop Scott was in posses sion of the pigskin. Hill ' kicked off 30 yards, and Bishop Scott worked 'the ball back to within 10 yards, of the center, where the ball was lost on a fumble. Hill plunged back for good gains, till the 24-yard line, and then the ball changed, hands again on another fumble, and on " the first formation for Bishop Scott Swope made a beautiful end run for 12 yards. After three plays, Swope punted, and Hill was downed 12 yards past the center of the field. Bishop Scott got the ball on a fumble near the center line, and then fumbled In turn to Hill, the ball being downed on Hill's, 47 yard line. By line bucks, and five yards' penalty, Hill advanced to the center line, and then the. fifth fumble of the game gave the pigskin to Bishop Scott. After three downs, Swope punted to within 8 yards ot. the Hill goal line, and Holman made a fierce run back for 15. By end runs and line plunges the ball went to the center- again, and another of the many fumbles gave possession to Bishop Scott, and Swope punted. Hill worked back to their 40-yard line, and then time was called. The Second Half. Bishop Scott kicked off to Hill, and after failure to make yardage, Martin punted 15 yards past the center. Swope tried to punt in turn, but Kelly blocked t!he ball, which bounded back to Bishop Scott's 15-yard line. After an advance of three yards, a fumble gave the ball to Hill, IS yards from the coveted line. Mac donald made two end runs for seven, and Van Houten lost one, making three in a second attempt. Martin went to the 5-yard line on a right end run, and Mac donald went one yard more. The excite ment was intense, and Martin tried to make the coveted four yards, but he could not, and Bishop Scott punted out from behind the goal line. Hill worked back, and Martin punted, Bishop Scott downing the ball on the 7 yard line. Swope tried to punt from be hind his own line again, but Palmer broke through and downed him, thus mak ing the safety that won tho game for Hill. Swope kicked off from the 25-yard line, and after.. that the players worked the ball back and forth, most of the time In Bishop Scott territory, and when time was called It was on the 35-yard line.

UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, EU GENE. Nov. 14. (Special.) The track team men of the 'University of Oregon met yesterday In the gym nasium and elected Clyde A. Payne, 1004, captain of the team for the coming season. Payne has been a member of the 'varsity track team for the - past three years, and through his efficient work he Is well deserving of the honor bestowed upon him. Mr. Payne Is an athlete well known throughout the North west, havlnc a record that is sel dom excelled by single men. "When he entered the university. In the Fall of 1899, he made a place on the football eleven, and In the Spring was a member of the track team, running the middle t. distances. In the year 1900-1001 Payne was full back on the 'varsity eleven that won over the University of Cali fornia team. Also, durlnc this same 5-car, he ran his former dlsr tance races and made the record of 2:03 2-5 in the half-mile, which stands as the' Northwest record to day. Last 'year he did not play football, but took part on the track, winning several sprints, doing fast time In the 440-yard and 220-yard runs. This year Mr. Payne Is play ing rlsht halfback on the 'varsity eleven. The prospects are yet a little dim for making a prediction as to the strength of the track team of 1003, yet some well-tried men are in school. Payne will run In the sprints again this year, leaving the slonally held for .downs, the Agricultur ists found it easy, in spite of the heavy field, to skirt ends for long gains.

DANGER OF MODERN TIMES Dr. Harper Says It Is Specializing Common to AH Lines. CHICAGO, Nov. 14. "The greatest dan ger of modern times is the tendency to specializing in all lines, and I think this spirit Is responsible for unions, trusts and combinations. We would not have had these combinations had not the spec ialists forced their organization." So de clared Dr. William R. Harper, president of the University of Chicago, at "Handel Hall, last night, at an entertainment giv en under the auspices of the city lodges of the Independent Order of B'Nai Brith. Dr. Harper's subject was "The Ideal Spirit," and he said In these modern times the questions of literature, religion, society and politics were not studied deep ly enough and men did not think with the right spirit. "It is more in what spirit one thinks," he said, "than of what he thinks." He declared the modern man should adopt the spirit of caution and of open mindedness. To be cautious was not timidity, but courage to be cautious is scholarly. AT THE HOTELS. THE PORTLAND. Rlcchard Smith. Spok IA J Daly. Alaska A.I Ryerse, Mlnnpls JE R Wheeler. Taconu F "VV Jackson.
