THE MORNING OKEGONIAN, MONDAY, FEBRUARY 18, 11K)7. 0 DEEP INTEREST IN TRACK UNO FIELD Favorite College Sports Will Be More Popular Than Ever This Year. TALENT IN THE NORTHWEST Pact Performances IrkUcnte That the Athletes of This Section Con Id Hold Their Own In the Very Best Company. With the opening of the second se mester of the college year, there comes a revival of interest in track and field athletics, the oldeHt and one of the most popular branches of college Sport. Here in the Pacific: Northwest the raw, wet weather of the early Spring Is not conducive to outdoor training, hut de "spite this handicap, this section has produced sonie of America's most re nowned athletes. Kerrigan, the .Mult nomah jumper; Gilhert, the Yale Uni versity poie-vaulter; Joe Pearson, the Washington sprinter, and Dan .T. Kelly, the fleet-footed youth from the Uni versity of Oregon, are but samples of the athletes of the Northwest. Track and field athletics of this section, like all other branches of sport had hum ble beginnings. Fifteen years ago Port land" people looked with wonder upon a man who could run 100 yards in 10 4-6 seronds, or clear nine feet in the pole vault. The Multnomah Club. first took up track athletics in the early '90s. Some good men were developed and in 1806 the club put out a strong team, winning the dual meet from the Olym pic Club, of Pan Krancisco. "With such men as Kerrigan.'Tallant, Morgan, Wat kins. Fuller, Coyne, Trenkman and Brazee, Multnomah had one of the best teams in the country, and besides defeating the Californians, won the championship of the Pacific Northwest. Multnomah has supported track ath letics ever tdnce the club was organized and has. in most instances, been vic torious In the championship meets. First College Meet at Salem. The first intercollegiate meet ever held in the Northwest was at Salem, in June, 1S95. Teams representing all the colleges of Western Oregon were present and the meet was a most Inter esting affair. Tho University of Ore gon won tho honors of the day, while Willamette and Portland Universities tied for second place. The old Inter collegiate Amateur Athletic Associa-, tion of Oregon held six meets at the State Fair Grounds. Five of these were won by the University of Oregon and one by tho Oregon Agricultural College. The association disbanded In 1901, but was revived again In 1905, when the Oregon Agricultural College won the meet by a big majority. The University of Oregon won the Salem meet Inst Spring, duplicating the big score made by tho "Aggies" in 1805. There is some talk of abandoning these Salem meets, as they have proved nothing more or less than dual con tests between the University of Oregon and the Oregon Agricultural College. As the institutions hold a dual meet each year, alternating between Eugene and Corvallis, the Salem meet really seems unnecessary, especially since the smaller colleges of the state are not represented by strong teams. The first interstate intercollegiate meet In the Northwest was held In this city in the Spring of 1898. The contesting teams were composed of the colleges of Oregon and Washing ton. Oregon won the meet by a big score. The bright particular star of the day was Kuykendall, the University of Oregon sprinter. Others who dis tinguished themselves were Saunders, of Willamette; Smith and Read, of Ore gon, and Palmer, of Washington. First Dual Meet at Seattle. The first dual meet between the Uni versity of Oregon and the University of Washington was held In Seattle in J 000, Oregon winning out by a score of 62 to 60. Oregon won again in 1901, tho year of Heater, Payne, Foley and L'lck Smith. Owing to a misunderstand ing, no meet was held again until 1904, when Washington defeated the Eugene men by a big score. Oregon won the dual meet in 1905 by 62 to 60, and last year won the Oregon-Washington-Idaho meet at Seattle. This waa the first "triangular" meet ever held by the State Universities of the Pacific North west, and it was an unqualified suc cess in every way. It will undoubted ly grow in popularity during the com ing years, and will attract the atten tion of athletes all over the Coast. The P. N. A. meet, which will be held in Seattle about July 1, will likewise prove of great interest to Pacific Coast athletes. This meet was held at Spo kane last year and was made memor able by the wonderful performances of Pan Kelly and other members of the Multnomah team. Kelly's record of 9 3-5 seconds was subsequently al lowed by the officials of the Amateur Athletic Union. Oregon Has Fine Material. Prospects for a successful season in the Pacific Northwest were never better than they are this year. Candidates for the college teams are already at work, and clubmen will begin training later on. The proposition of sending an all-Northwest team to Jamestown appeals to the young atnietes. and there will be some lively competition for places on the team. With such men as Kelly. Moores and McKJnney of Oregon; Carey, of Montana: Parker, of Washington, and Greenhaw, or O. A. C, the Pacific Northwest could muster a strong, well-balanced team. The University of Oregon seems to have fine material this year, and predictions are made that Hayward's men will win the Coast championship. With one or two exceptions Oregon has every point winner of last season's team, besides a bunch of freshman material that should look good In any college. Zacharlas, an old Berkeley athlete, is helping Hug and McKinney with the weights, and there are freshmen candidates in nearly every event. Hayward has instituted a series - of cross-country runs and inter-class meets that will bring out new material for the varsity. In addition to the meets of their regular schedule, the Oregon athletes are counting on a dual meet with Stanford. Manager McCarty, of Oregon, is concluding arangements with Manager Dudley Sales, of Stanford, for a meet in Eugene on May 24 or thereabouts. This meet, if arranged, will be the biggest thing ever attempted In the line of inter collegiate events in the Pacific North west and will undoubtedly draw a great crowd, especially If Oregon and Stanford are victorious In their earlier contests. There are a large number of candidates for the track team at the Oregon Agri CuHural Collegia, and although a, number, of the old-time stars are missing, the "Aggies" are still a potent factor in Northwest athletics. The Corvallis In stitution has produced a number of very creditable athletes in years gone by. Williams, the famous middle-distance run ner, and Smlthson, the sprinter, were two of the best men in the United States in 1904 and 1905. Williams is now In the Philippine Constabulary and Smlthson is at Notre Dame University,, where he Is distinguishing himself In athletics. The Agricultural College still has Greenhaw. the 440-yard and SO-yard runner; De Volt, the mile runner; Swan, the vaulter, and a number of others that are sure point winners. - At the University of Washington a large squad of men are working under Trainer Conibear. Washington has lost a num ber of her veterans, but new men are coming in each year to take their places. Seattle to Hold Indoor Meet. The Seattle Athletic Club has made plans for a big indoor meet, to be held at the Seattle Coliseum about the middle of March. This affair promises to be the most important Indoor athletic event ever pulled on! in the Northwest. Invitations have been sent to all colleges and athletic clubs in the Pacific Northwest, including the athletic clubs of Victoria, Vancouver and New Westminster, B. C. The meet will be open to all bona fide amateurs and will include all the customary indoor events. The big feature of the meet, however, will be the Marathon race, for a distance of from six to ten miles. There will also be a series of Interesting relay races. The colleges of the Inland Empire will MONEY RAISED FOR FIRST CHURCH IN TOWN OF ESTACADA ESTACADA CHUBCH AS IT WILL APPEAR COMPLETED. Plans have been completed and nearly all the money raised for the erec tion of th first church in Estacada. The nearest one to the town being- three miles distant. This building project is the result of efforts put forth by Rev. C. T. McPherson, a Methodist pastor, who went to that town and organized a church. Beside the church building a parsonage will be erected. Three of the best lots in the city have been donated for the church by the O. W. P Town site Company, and two lota have been given for the parsonage. The church and parsonage will be erected at a cost of $3000 and $1500 respectively. It la thought that after the buildings are completed the property will easily be worth $10,000. Friends of all denominations In Estacada and Portland have contributed to the church erection fund, the glfte from this city amounting to $600. The project is under the auspices of the Methodist 1aymen's Association. be well represented on track and field this season. Rumor has it that Archie Hahn, the fast man from Michigan, will train the track team at the Washington State College. The Pullmanites had a very formidable team last year, and un der the training of such a man as Hahn should be even stronger this year. The management of the Pullman team is ar ranging for a trip to Corvallis and Eu gene, where meets will be held with trie Oregon "Aggies" and the University ot Oregon. Whitman and Idaho both have some good athletes and the fight for the Irdand Empire championship promises to be closer than ever before. A REAL INDIAN PRIEST. A Pottawatomie Who Spoke His Na tive Tongue in Rome. Topcka (Kan.) Capital. To be the first full-blooded Indian to be come a Roman Catholic priest is the un usual distinction of Rev. Father Albert Negahnquet, of Kansas, now conducting religious labors among his fellow race men in Oklahoma and Indian Territory. So far as now known Father Negahnquet is the only living Roman Catholic priest who is a full-blooded Indian. Father Negahnquet was born on the Pottawato mie reservation near St. Mary's. "Kan., in 1877. Soon afterward he waa brought to Topeka by his parents and in the. Church of the Assumption here he was baptized. He was the youngest of a family of 10 children. His parents and members of the family removed to Pottawatomie County, Oklahoma, where there are now many members of that tribe. In the southern part of that county the Catho lics in an early day established a great community amonastery, schools and the like. The missionaries of that church naturally came and worked among the Indians near by. Father Negahnquet, as a boy, was sent to the school. He was an Interesting child, readily tractable, and he applied himself to his studies. " Mother Katherine Drexel, daughter of the millionaire Drexel, of Philadelphia, on the occasion of one of her periodical visits, took notice of this particular lit tle Indian boy. She never forgot him, and when he became old enough she sent him to the large Indian school at Car lisle, Pa. Later he was transferred to the Catholic college at Washington, D. C, with the purpose In view of educat ing him for the priesthood. He was the honor man at Washington, and from there' he went to Rome. He studied philosophy and theology there In the Propaganda College, being one year In the college of the pope. Before the de parture from Rome of priests of his class it is customary for each la his mother tongue to give an address. It must have been strange when the young American Indian priest came forward and in the tongue of his fathers, the warlike Pottawatomies. spoke. Then Father Negahnquet sailed away to Oklahoma Territory, and for a few weeks was the guest of his parents In their rude home. Soon afterwards he sang the first mass given by a full-blood Indian priest on American soil In the big Catholic church at Oklahoma City, Okla homa. His consecration was by Bishop Theophile Meerschaert, of Guthrie, Okla homa. The bishop spoke proudly of the honor of consecrating the first Indian priest and of having him in that diocese. Since coming back to America three vears ago. Father Negahnquet has la bored faithfully among his people and those efforts have been well rewarded, Origin of "Cutler." Philadelphia Bulletin. "Cutler" according to its present use should mean a man who makes things that cut, but really it has no more to do with "cut" than "cutlass" and "cut let" have, which is Just nothing at all. "Cut" has some Teutonic origin, but "cutler" comes through French from the late Latin "cultellarlus," which meant either a soldier armed with a knife or a knlfemaker. and "cultellus,' a little knife, was the diminutive of "culter," which, among other things, meant -a plowshare (or "coulter"). Cutlass" comes from the, same source, and "cutlet" is "cotelette," a little rib. Why don't you try Carter's Little Liver Pills?

" His San Francisco Resort Headquar ters for Pugilists and Other Sporting' Men. BY WILt, G. MACRAE. In the death of Harry Corbett, the sporting world has lost one of Its fa mous characters. Harry Corbett's rep utation as an honest sporting man was world-wide, made so when his brother. Jim Corbett, was champion of the world, and since then because of his Ellis-street resort In San Francisco and because he was honest and trusted by men who make up the sporting world. Hairy Corbett sprang Into fame when his brother Jim whipped John L. Sulli van, and while from time to time scan dal was directed his way, his name was never besmirched. , For years before the fire and earth quake that wreoked San Franciaco. Harry Corbett's resort was the Mecca for men famous In the sporting world and for the sporting gentry, from the lowliest fighter who ever stepped into a ring, to the highest. Men whose names were always on the public lip, BCNJAMttt D. PMCK. MAX CNABLt S HK well known on the turf. In politics or on the stage, made Harry Corbett's place their headquarters when in San Francisco. There fortunes were won and lost on the great fights that have taken placo in San Fraidsco and else where. When the big fistic events were on in San Francisco. Corbett's Ellis-street place was thronged with prize ring notables, turf plungers and the followers of the game of chance. For weeks preceding any of the cham pionship battles, for which in recent yearB San Francisco has been Justly fa mous, it was almost Impossible to enter or get out of Corbett's place. Fights that have gone down in history were made there. Fighters on the eve or afternoon of their battles weighed in there, and any time that. Corbett's name was attached to a set of fighting agree ments,, or tnat his name was in any way used in the negotiations, it stood for a square deal. Could Harry Corbett have left to his blind daughter one-tenth part of the money that had been intrusted into 'his hands as wagers without a dollar's worth of security but his name, she would be famously rich. Men placed thousands of dollars In his keeping without the scratch of a pen and when settling day came, the money was al ways there. He was a sporting man and never made any pretense of being anything else. Had he turned his at tention to politics for his own advance ment, with the large following he hud with men in all walks of life in San Francisco, he could have won impor tant offices. Corbett will be missed in San -Fran cisco. The fighters who have fought their way Into fame and drifted back to the down and outs, will find their meal ticket gone. He will be missed by tne moochers and hangers on, for it was said of him that he never allowed any one that had been square with him to go hungry. Corbett had many pension ers on his list, who will have to shift for themselves now that he has "cashed in." GOLF CUP WOX BY MURPHY Becomes Permanent Owner by De feating Wright on Waverly Links.

Your Past Shouldn't Worry You. O. S. Harden, in Success Magazine. There is nothing more depressing than dwelling upon lost opportunities or a misspent life. Whatever your past has been, forget it. If it throws a shadow upon the present, or causes melancholy or despondency, there is nothing in it which helps you. there is not a single reason why you should re tain it in your memory, and there are a thousand reasons why you should bury it so deeply that It can never be resurrected.

DEBATE A FREE-FOR-ALL Socialist Orators Engage in Argu ment While Audience Dwindles. "Would Socialism Abolish Rent, Taxes and Interest?" was the subject of a lively debate at Alisky Hall last night, where a meeting of Branch Five of the Socialist organization of Portland was held. The debaters were H. D. Wagnon and H. A. Mosher, to whom were opposed J. D. Stevens and J. H. Falrbrook. After the debate several speakers were introduced and made brief addresses, fail ing to agree on any one point. The trou ble seemed to be that all desired to talk at the same time and Chairman F. J. McHenry was unable to check the flood of oratory. While H. A. Mosher was on the floor answering questions William Vandergoot stepped out in front of the audience, removed his coat and announced that he himself would take a little of the remaining time. Chairman McHenry fol lowed Mr. Vandergoot and announced that the chair had a few remarks to make ana all continued to pour forth their views on Socialism. At this point the audience seemed to take it that the meeting had adjourned and quietly left the room. At llome and Abroad. Baltimore News. An American ordered at a Parisian cafe a hors d'oeuver, sole, agneau pre sale, artichoke salad, peche Melba, and so on, and, when the waiter brought him a bill of 30 francs, he paid it like a man. After his change was brought, he counted it. and pushed a franc toward the waiter for a tip. But the man, pushing back the tip, said In gentle reproach: "Pardon, monsieur, but that is the counterfeit franc." A gentleman, after eating a good dinner, said to the Washington, D. C, waiter: "I am sorry I can't give you a tip, but I find I have only just enough money to pay your bilj." The waiter seized the bill hurriedly, "Just let me add It up again, sir," he muttered. Foundation Total Loss. It has been found that the concrete foundation for the new Evangelical church at Mllwaukie is a total loss. It was built just before the extremely cold weather and had not "set" before the freeze. It was hoped that some of it might be saved, but it is now thought that no part of it can' be used. The loss will probably be over $100. Cambridge, Mass., provides for privi leges of study and travel one year in seven for the public school teachers.
