Defeat Two Aspirants for Title at MmltHoma.il Clab McCalllg: and De France Go a- Draw. Ed C. Johnson maintained his suprema cy as champion middle-weight vrreEtler of the Northwest, at the Multnomah Club tournament last night. This was the only match decided, and the finals In the other classes will be decided this evening. De France had the battle royal of the competition, working up to the finals In both the lightweight and welter-weight classes. His match with McCallig, In the welter-weight class, was hard fought from start to finish, and the referee, Her bert Greenland, had to put the two through three bouts, and even then be was unable to come to a decision, as the wrestlers were so evenly matched. The result was submitted to the toss-up of a coin, and McCallig won. De France was then compelled to meet King in the same class, for the right to contest In the finals. King weighed 145, having 10 pounds over De France, and De France faced a hard proposition. He played on the defensive, while King wore himself out, and then suddenly took the offensive, catching King In a dangerous position and winning the fall. This gives De France the right to compete with McCallig tonight, for the welter-weight championship of the club. In the light-weight competition the con test has also narrowed down to a matcn between McCallig and De France. Both men defeated the men pitted against them last evening, and will therefore wrestle for championship in both classes. Johnson met and defeated two new as pirants for the middle-weight champion ship of the club R. A. Lamberson, tne prominent oarsman of the Portland Row ing Club, and Hal Rasch, the well-known all-around Multnomah athlete. Johnson defeated Lamberson in his bout in one minute, 43 seconds. Lamberson then went against Rasch, and to the surprise of ail the. spectators, who thought Rasch's mag nificent physique would land him a win ner, Lamberson won out. Rasch started In aggressively to roll Lamberson, but the latter used his great strength In his back and arms to turn the tables on his husky opponent. After that Lamberson met Johnson In the finals, and Johnson won the victory In one minute 30 sec onds. There was a good attendance, with a fair proportion of feminine spectators, a distinct innovation at the Multnomah Club that is certain to prove popular. The feminine element enjoyed the sport, and shrill erica of appreciation, as the men wriggled in and out of dangerous po sitions, were heard as the meed of praise for which the athletes struggled. Herbert Greenland acted as referee for all the events, and "W. C. Dunlway as master of ceremonies. All the matches were pulled off quickly, without delays, the men wrestling six-minute bouts, with the same space for rests. Following Is the summary of the events: Bantam-Weights 115 Pounds. First bout A. W. Phllpot vs. Kenneth Fenton; won by Fenton in 50 seconds. Second bout Edgar Frank vs. A. C. Gil bert; no fall, Frank won on aggressive ness. Finals, Saturday, Frank vs. Fen ton.

' SIG SICHEL & CO., S2,TbJrd Street. TREES FOR MONUMENTS "PLANT SEQUOIAS TO LAST 4000 YEARS," SAYS L. L. HAWKINS. He Gives His Ideas en Beautifying 1 City's Parks and Erecting Me morial for Year 1001. Park Commissioner L. X.. Hawkins has a project In view whereby a series of monuments may be erected, which will endure for at least 4000 years. These monuments' arc a number of sequoia trees which are to be planted In the city's 29-acre tract near University Park. "The oldest living thing on earth is the sequoki tree," Mr. Hawkins said yester day, "and there are a number of that species growing In Portland to such a size tfiat they will soon have to be taken down. My Idea is to have them dug JOHNSON. up and transplanted in the city's park, north of Albina, where they may, be per mitted to go on growing for the next 4000 years. I would have them set within 350 feet of the park enclosure, so that should some unusual wind storm topple any of them over, there will be no dan ger of them falling on private property. I would place one In the center of the square tract, and the others at equal distances along this 350-foot line. "The sequoia tree Is the tree that has become world-famed In the Mariposa grove of California, where It has attained a height of 350 feet and a diameter of 25, its age being computed by scientists at 4000 j-ears. A number of trees of this age are now flourishing In different por tions of the Sierra Nevada Mountains, and there is no telling how many hun dreds of years they may continue to live. Their thick, almost fire-proof bark has enabled them to withstand the forest fires that have swept around them for 40 centuries. While the ordinary sugar pine and balsam fir of the Sierras have grown up about them and lived their brief lives of 500 or 600 years, these se quoias have gathered renewed strength from the ashes of the smaller conifers, and have sent their tops scores of feet beyond the tallest of their transient neighbors. The sequoias I propose to transplant will therefore outlast the most solid granite structure that could be erected, while a marble monument would have crumbled into dust thousands of years before the sequoia will even show signs of maturing. "This giant redwood tree is one of the prettiest and most graceful of the conifer species. Its branches droop grace fully, something like the ribs of an open umbrella, while Its spear-shaped top pierces the sky at a dizzy height Its bark near the ground is over three feet thick, and a specimen of it can be seen .at the Portland free museum. The trees, therefore, will be a curiosity to Portland ers who are living in the year 5S01, long after the other structures of his cen tury have passed Into oblivion. "The cost of setting these trees up on the Peninsula will be a mere trifle. The sequoia In front of the Postofflce on the Fifth-street side will soon have to come down to give way to the extension to the Federal building, shortly to be construct ed. Tho tree at Frank JDekum's place. Morrison and Twelfth streets. Is getting too big and must be topped off or re moved. There is one at the corner of Fourth and Lincoln streets that is con sidered in the way, and there are several growing in the vicinity of the City Park which are In the same fix. When theae are all transplanted to their future home, they will be safe from further Interfer ence and can grow and spread to their heart's content. The smaller growth about their roots may be cut away as occasion demands and future generations consider necessary. This grove of gi gantic trees will be a fitting souvenir of the bustling year of 1301, when Portland had just awakened to her vast possibil ities, and her citizens had begun to re alize her grand future as one of the great commercial cities of the earth." FEW PEOPLE AT CHARLESTON But Crowds Are Expected After the Holidays. Under date of December 12. Henry E. Dosch sends the following letter from Charleston, S. C: "Attendance at the exposition is yet light, and I don't look for much Improve ment until after the holidays. On a re cent Sunday evening we had the first earthquake. Our house, which is a new one, and well built, shook like some one falling down stairs and for all the world sounded like it so much so that we rushed into the hall to see who had taken a tumble onto himself and when we found no one with broken ribs It dawned upon us what the cause was. Next morning we read an account of It. Have had frost sufficient enough to kill all tender plants. Towards noon a gentle chlnook began to blow (they call It trade winds here), and by evening an Oregon mist began to fall, lasting all night. It made the Oregon delegation decidedly homesick, and they all looked It. They all growl about our rains, but I have to see the first Orcgonlan, who comes East, Summer, Fall, Spring or Winter, who is not glad to turn his face to the setting sun, as soon as his or her busi ness Is concluded. "Charleston Is a quaint old place and its people are friendly, courteous and hospitable, and strive to make U3 feel at home. We have been Invited right and left here; been to 'two balls, several par ties, a number of dinners and teas. Only lack of time prevents my acceptance of excursion and hunting expeditions. Last Sunday my wife and I attended service in the only Huguenot church In the Unit ed States. It was built in 1752 and is a quaint little Gothic chapel. Services are In French. The chapel, like all chapels here, and there arc only 42, are surround ed by the graves of the old Carolinians, and one can almost hear their spirits gliding along the corridors and aisles in the semlc gloaming. It makes the timid face 'woozey,' as I heard one lady ex press it. "We entertained the officers of the At lantic Squadron today. I said 'we.' I meant the exposition management. Mr. Johnson and myself were asked to help entertain them on the grounds. To morrow afternoon we shall take them to the new naval Btation and afterwards dine them at the old. Hunters' Clubhouse, which is an old plantation several hun dred years old. The Southerners know how to do things and they do them so quietly and cordially" and most delightful ly, and at once make you feel at home, and every one the host and not the guest the great secret of true entertaining." NO RAILROAD TO NEHALEM And It Remains an Isolated if Pro ductive Region. John Campbell, a stockralser of the Nehalem Valley, who was City Surveyor of Albina before consolidation, is visiting Portland". He Bays the residents of his section are still patiently waiting for rail road communication, though a good many became tired and. selling out their home steads to timber land speculators, have moved away. Mr. Campbell's stock range, therefore, has increased in area since he went over there 12 years ago, and he has abundance of feed for his cattle. Winter and Summer. "Vernonia, near where I live, is 23 miles distant from tho Northern Pacifio at Scappoose," he said, at the Portland yesterday, "while Forest Grove is 25 miles away In another direction. We would have to haul our produce over a range o" rough, timbered hills In order to get It to market, so most of us confine our selves to raising something that can walk out. When the railroad 'finally reaches the Nehalem Valley a large area of farm ing land will be made productive that Is now used as pasture. We have a right of way staked out to the Nehalem River from Scappoose, and it follows down the river to the coast, but the simple setting of the stakes docs us no good. What we want is the rallroatl Itself." Although the Nehalem Valley Is heavily wooded In places, there are very few wild animals to prey upon the stock, he says, and the coyote Is altogether unknown in that portion of Oregon. Even domesticat ed dogs cannot live over there very long, so the canine race Is conspicuous by Its absence. His reason for this Is that large numbers of salmon follow up the Nehalem River from the ocean, and be come stranded on the river banks, and in the numerous tributary creeks. These salmon look tempting to the coyotes and dogs, which eat them with avidity, only to suffer sure death as a consequence. "There is no known cure fqr the dog that has been 'salmoned,' " he said, "and the animal begins Immediately to droop. It refuses food, but becomes crazy for water, and the suffering appears to be in tense for a period of 10 to 12 days. We can get along very well without coyotes or wolves, but some of us would like to keep a house dog. I have heard that the Alaskan dogs thrive on raw salmon, and. if I can find such an animal In Portland, I shall bring one home with me on my return." Mr. Campbell wonders at the enormous growth of Portland since he left here, and says If he could have seen ahead a score of years he would have stayed. "Portland's position," he said, "will make her to the Northwest what Chicago has become to the states between the Great Lakes and the Rocky Mountains. I se thU now, though I did not realize it 20 years ago, when the city had only a frac tion of its present population, and it was not spread out for miles on each side ot the Willamette River, as It is now." CLASH IN MUNICIPAL COURT Deputies of City and District Attor neys Resume 'Hostilities. There was a resumption of hostilities between the District Attorney's office and the City Attorney's office In the Municipal Court yesterday afternoon. The ex change of courtesies took place when Officer Church asked that the case against John Fuog, charged with operating a slot machine, be transferred from the city to the county docket. Assistant District Attorney Gatens said that he could not consent to the transfer until he had consulted his chief. Assist ant City Attorney Davis retorted that there would be another grandstand play coming from Mr. Chamberlain, and things were warming up when Judge Cameron Interposed and ordered the attorneys to refrain from personalities. The Fuog case will be argued Monday before Judge Cameron. It Is understood that the case will be a test one, and that the owners of the slot machines are back ing Fuog in his legal fight. The machine had a musical attachment, and a sign over the head stated that all money won must be played back for more music. The machine was confiscated and Fuog arrested Thursday night.
