Jordan Is eaally one of the best plaj-em that ever supported the winged "M" and the honor bestowed upon him Is none too little for the service he has rendered the Mult nomah Club on the gridiron. The din ner given the football team was ap propriately a celebration over the fact that the Multnomah Club In their game " p-eterday proved themselves the football Champion' of the Pacific Northwet.

Yes. and In the tame breath let us say. great Is Seattle. Xhe visitors were beaten, beaten by a single touchdown and a smgie eu. uui they fought as only gridiron warriors can. While another touchdown, and pos sibly a goal, should have been scored against the invaders from the Sound City, they gave an afternoon's pigskin exhi bition that was worth seeing. There was some rough work strewn through the game. Slugging and hold ing Is not permissible according to the rules, and perhaps Walter Camp would have been shocked had he been present. -r ..imtrv Vinn-ovor th!: footba.ll iwa "-i""'" J ' " - Itlo, -while he Is esteemed, does not Knt waW tno game is aciuiuy m itew&e to roughness, the Seattle t 'DOT unqueeuunuui me SutViav Vmlrl and thev nassed Srftm-ic oholre collections of stiff arms n"Qilorw. but pshaw, who cares if there is slugging when both sides have an even break at the game. The officials could have retired the offenders, but if they had, they would have stripped both teams, and there would have been no game. Infants and women can't play football, and those who had passages at arms during the skirmishes forgot them when the game was over. This is said for the benefit of those who saw the game and were Inclined to "roast" both teams and officials. Murphy a Great General. The Multnomah men simply had to win." They had to wipe out the defeat of De cember 17. And how they fought for the victory, a victory that only came after one of the fiercest, and roost bruising struggles that Multnomah ever had. It was a splendid team that the clubmen met They knew It and they gave an exhibition of teamwork and loyalty to the Multnomah Club that is rarely seen on any gridiron. Chester Murphy is truly a great football general and strate- rREVIOUS DEKEAT WIPED OUT. Multnomah won the game today through the superior defensive work of ber team, and also with the assistance of Murphy's head and feet. It was one of the most stubbornly contested gasies we have played this year, and while Multnomah only secured one touchdown, I think our team is easily at least IS point9 better than Seattle's. Had we had Just a few minutes more to play, I think we would have demon ctrated that. I am particularly pleased that we won this game, since it marks the close of the season, and also for the fact that we bave wiped out the defeat met with In Seattle. F. E. "Wat klne. Manager Multnomah Team. riet. He out-generaled Seattle, he out- punted the great Dr. Roller, and when it came to headwork, he was incompara ble. Then behind him was a team of seasoned football veterans. There were Dolph, Jordan, Horan, Lonergan. Stott. Stow, Kellar. Pratt. Seeley and Ross. These men fought as they never fought before. Stow, who was playing a brill lant game, was a bright and shining mark for Seattle, and they bruised and smashed into him until the ligaments of hi right leg were torn and twisted -so sorely that he was forced to retire. Xirkley was called to the firing line, and he. too, was in the thick of the battle until he, also, was forced to retire. Then came the call for McMillan. When the ex-captain of Multnomah stripped off his sweater a great shout went up from Mult nomah's rooters. The veteran had little chance to pull off great plays, but he was ever in the thickest of the scrim r mages. Multnomah Scores in First Half. Multnomah's score came in the first half. A fumble on Seattle's ten-yard line. In the second half, cost the team a sec ond touchdown. It was Murphy's wonder ful punting that made the score possi ble. He had made his plan of battle be forehand that was to boot the ball. The fight all the time was in Seattle terri tory, yet Multnomah was held for downs. and whenever this happened the right Xoot of Chet Murphy was called Into .play. When he lifted the ball to within a couple of yards of Seattle's goal line. he won lor the clubmen. The ball was on "Seattle's 40-yard line when Murphy buried his toe into the oval. Up It shot and then forward, and the steam behind it cameo it to xsewmeyer. ho was downed on the two-yard line. The gloom -ef the afternoon was rent with the ex l ltltsmt shout of Multnomah. Men -am- fjacn and children seemed to know that lit was time to Kore. Ur. -Holler tried Mb straight buck, jt the whole Multno- man. team fell on him and be was buried beneath a ton of human muscle and brawn. ' Desperation was written on the faces of the visiting team. Dr. Roller dropped back for a punt. It was his only chance. It failed because the pass to him, like all the rest during the whole game, was wretched. Holler faltered a second. That second tuned the death- knell of Seattle's hopes, for like a flash, the club men broke through the lines and charged upon him. Jordan Captures the Ball. Manfully he tried the punt, but the compact of ball and foot was far from being fair and the oval, like a wing-shot bird fluttered high into the air and to the right Jordan, whose spectacular playing had already made him a star. saVr the fluke, and was under it. Without waiting for It to come down, he leaped Info the air and grabbed the oval. This threw him off his balance a bit, and It denied him a touchdown, but in spite of this, he carried the ball to within a foot of Seattle's goal line. Dolph, with Lonergan and Horan behind him, like a pair of locomotives, was shoved over the. line. Then bedlam broke loose. Men and women sent up frenzied cries of victory- Hats and canes were tossed into the air, rooters screamed, shouted, talked a wild incoherent babel. Murphy's kick ing a jgoal. was a matter too trifling al most to watch. Only the Seattle root ers hoped he would miss it. Multnomah and rooters knew he wouldn't. Mur phy lifted the ball over the bar and be- G&L S a 5 JZU 2S 30 G(KL 5 O 5 20 25 1I0W THE BALL tween the posts, with an ease and non chalance that stamp him the brilliant football player that he is. Murphy s head and his foot gained for Multnomah fully 200 yards. This, he says. Is his last game, and in the passing of Chester TEAM WORK WIXS, SAYS MURPHT. We won the game by the entire team working together. We have always failed more or less to xet together before, but this time the boys were all there. We bad planned a kicking game, but this was not altogether necessary, on account of the superb playing of the Multnomah men. As the game progressed the boys chowed up better and I felt proud of them. We. should have had at least another touch down, and I think It was only the ele ment of luck that prevented It. Our goal was never really In danger. Ev eryone of our boys played like etars and it would be Impossible to choose any particular one for the credit of winning the game. Chester O. Mur phy, Coach Multnomah Team. Murphy from the gridiron, goes one of the greatest football players this Coast has ever seen. Team's Magnificent Play. Now a word for somebody else. Horan. with his ribs done up In harness, was there with bells. By his work and Mur phy's fake play. Multnomah's coach ran 40 yards. Dolph is a human battering ram. Port Arthur would have fallen be fore, had Dolph, Horan and Lonergan been pounding away at the fort. Kellar loomed up in magnificent style at center against Bracket t, whom he wore to a frazzle. He, tired as he was, was more than a match for Larnbel. who succeeded BracketL Seeley had a worthy opponent In Roller, who played defensive guard, but he had It on the medico, and In hav ing It he more than evened up what hap pened at Seattle on December 17.

WAS CARRIED IN THE SEATTLE-MTJLTNOMAH GAME. the Scattle-Multnomah game will become a yearly feature of Portland's football eeason. The same can be said of the root ers. There was a tally-ho of them. They had wagered several hundred dollars on the game, and were pulling for their home team. Yet they accepted defeat grace fully and even when a local enthusiast, not a member of the club, became nasty, they overlooked It and told several Mult nomah members standing near that they did not consider the Insults from this person as coming from a club member. The officials could not have been better. Count Villa and Chauncey Blahop were absolutely fair. They deserve great credit, for they could have punished offenders and by doing so would have hurt the game from a spectator's standpoint. SHORT PUNT LOSES THE GAME Jordan Catches It Near Goal Line, and Multnomah Scores. The game opened with Multnomah on the defense. Roller, the booting man for Seattle, kicked to the local club's 15-yard line, where Lonergan caught the ball and returned It 20 yards. The strength of Seattle's line was shown in the first try for yardage. Using Horan, Pratt and Lon ergan. Multnomah made but two yards, and on the last down Murphy punted. Newmeycr caught the ball on his 3T-yard line and returned the punt, equaling Mur phy's distance. Murphy received the ball and was good for ten yards before being downed. Multnomah was held for downs, and It was Seattle's ball on Multnomah s 50-yard line. Huntoon and McDonald went through for three yards, and Xcw raeyer made yardage on the third down. Roller's plunging only produced a two yard gain. Wells was next tried, and made a ten-yard run, but Seattle had been too anxious, and he lost his gain, with an additional 15 yards for offside playing on the part of the visitors. The third down for Seattle only netted two yards on the straight buck of Roller. Forced to punt. Roller managed to land the ball on Multnomah's 20-yard line. Then came the really brilliant run of the day, when Murphy, by means of a fake punt, tore off 40 yards of Seattle's advantage. A large part of the credit for that run belongs to Horan. who put up one of the most perfect exhibitions of in terference 'ever seen on the local field. Dolph was good for two yards, Lonergan made three on a cross buck, but Koran's CARTOONIST HARRY usually effective delayed pass play only netted two yards.- Wells broke through and xorcod Pratt "back, and McDonald immediate! turned the saate trick on Lonergan. Murphy punted 30 yards to Newmeyer, who was downed in his tracks by Pratt. Seattle immediately returned the punt. Murphy making a fair catch on Seattle's Vyard line. Murphy's try for goal fell short,. Wells falling on the ball on the ten-yard line, after a fumble by Roller. Seattle tgain took the safe -course of punting, and Lonergan made another fair catch cn SeatUe's 35-yard Jlne. Stow tried the oal this time, but Jd:ked out of bounds. Holler punted 25 yards frcni his 20-yard line, Lonergan returning the ball ten yards before he was downed by Pul len, Stott made five yards on an end-run and a tackle play with Stow carrying the ball added ten more, placing the ball on. Seattle's 30-yard line. In the next play Pratt fumbled, but Murphy recovered the balL A delayed par, by Lonergan was worth two yards, and the new fake place-kick play of the Multnomahs enabled Murphy to carry the bail seven yards. Dolph. aided by Horan and Lonetgan, made 12 yards, following this w'th a gain of three yards, but the ntxt attempt resulted In no gain, with the ball 12 yards from Seattle's goal. Murphy's kick was received, by Christy on his goal line and returned five yards. A quarterback run gave Seattle ten yards, but Roller on the next play found Mult nomah's line too solid and made no gain. He then punted out 40 yards to Murphy, who returned the punt to Newmeyer on V jzs jsg g g & C4L Pf x.a sa&raAF tfvr- 30 25 20 5 a 5 GQfL his two-yard line. Newmeyer was tack led by Stott and Jordan the Instant he caught the ball. Roller dropped back for a punt, but the pass was poor, and with Multnomah men tearing down upon him the best he could do was to boot the ball straight up. Jordan caught it on the ten yard line and brought it to within a foot BEST TEAM .WON". SAYS VILLA. I think the score shows the relative strength of the teams, although Mult nomah might bave had another touch down. The Multnomahs were particu larly good on the defensive, and It reems to me that their offensive work has Improved greatly. I was particu larly struck with the work of the M. A. C's ends, and I doubt if a bet ter player than Jordan can be found on the coast. This was' a much better game than the one played In Seattle, the boys all worked harder and I think there was a keener spirit shown. . It would be a good thing If at least two annual contests could be arranged be tween the two clubs. G. R. F. Villa, Referee. of the goal line. Dolph was shoved over the line on a straight buck through cen ter. Murphy kicking an easy goal. Roller kicked to Multnomah's ten-yard line, Lonergan returning the ball 15 yards. On another quarterback run Murphy al most duplicated his former performanco by running 30 yards before being tackled by Roller. Stott was next thrown back for a loss by McDonald. With a tackle over formation, Dolph made two yards and Murphy punted to Seattle's 30-yard line. Lonergan Btopped Huntoon's pas sage with the ball, but Roller on a tackle back, play made two yards. Newmeyer then made four yards, and followed It up with a gain of 12 yards. A violation of the rules governing the number of men. behind the line gave Seattle a penalty of 15 yards, but Christy recovered this on a quarterback play. Christy was used again and, followed by Newmeyer. the neces sary yardage was made. Roller pulled off five more on a delayed pass .Stow was replaced by Kirk Icy at this time.

Murphy opened the second half br kicking- to Christy, who received the ball SEATTLE LACKED TEAMWORK. The most noticeable feature of the game as I saw It was the- immense Improvement of the Multnomahs over the work of even a week ago. The team played as a team and not lndl Tldualy, and their defensive work simply could not be beat. The Seattle team lacked this organization, and. I think, relied too much on Roller. The Mult Bomaha were aware, of this and laid for him. I think two touchdowns for Multnomah would more nearly repre sent the relative strength of the teams. The game was clean all the way through, and. In spite of what some people might say, tbers wan no slug gleg or brutality. Chauncey Bishop. Umpire. on his 10-yard line and ran it in 15 yards. Huntoon went throuzh the line for two yards. McDonald advanced three, but dropped the ball, allowing Lonergan to fall on It. The ball was now on Seattle's 30-yard line, but a mistake in signals and a fumble put Seattle on the offen sive. Roller found a path for Ave yards, McDonald added four and Newmeyer was good for two more. McMillan, who replaced Klrkley at tackle, showed his old-time spirit In his first scrimmage by nailing; Newmeyer on another try, but toner made the necessary yardage on the next play. Christy tried another of his runs from the quarterback position, but Horan made a brilliant tackle through the line, and tne result was a loss of several vard3. Roller tried a punt from the regular for mation, which was blocked by Ross. Roller then tried the line without gain, but on his next attempt mado yardage. A delaped pass advanced Roller four yards on the next play. Plays In which Roller. Newmeyer and McDonald were, used put the ball on Multnomah's 25-yard line, where a hurdle by Roller gave Se attle another five yards. In the next few plays Multnomah took a brace and held for downs, securing the Dan on tftelr l-yard line. Horan In two plays made four yards. Dolph Dulled and shoved by Horan and Lonergan, made 15 yards In four plays, but the next three attempts made no gain and Murohv punted, booting the ball 43 yards. The ban was brought back, however, because time had been called by the Seattle's, and on the next punt Murphy only made 25 yards. Christy and Roller worked their way through for six yards, when Roller tried another punt from the regular formation. His 30 yards' gain, however, was spoiled by Murphy, who brought the ball back 20 yards before being downed. Horan was again used to push Dolph through the line for five yards, but Van Hoven berg broke up Murphy's run. Horan made good for yardage on a fake nunt. and Lonergan followed with a ten-yard gain. Horan, Dolph and Lonergan added 15 yards, and the sama trio went through the line for five more. With the ball on Seattle's ten-yard line Multnomah fum bled, saving Seattle from another touch down. Jordan stopped Christy, and In the next play Stott threw Chrslty back again for a loss of five yards. Roller's punt was ineffective, and the ball was caught on Seattle's 15-yard line Just as the whistle blew. THE LINE-UP. The teams lined up as follows: Multnomah. Posl Uon. Seattle. Stott R. E.

KAY Marlon and Multnomah Candidates Are Both Anxious to Receive Six Votes That Vawter Has Pledged. Members of the Oregon Legislature and the "thirl house" will be drifting; Into Portland all the rest of this week for caucuses preliminary to the as semblylnff of that body lext Monday. It is customary, for the lawmakers, before meeting at the capital, to put their heads together to swap notions at Portland, and inform themselves "how things stand." That Dr. W. Kuykendall, of Lane, will be elected President of the Senate la the general opinion, for Multno mahs seven votee are behind him and his opponent E- V. Carter, of Jackson, apparently cannot win In cau cus without Multnomah's aid. Tha con test for Speaker, however, between A. T. Mills, of Multnomah, and T. B. Kay, of Marion, Is very lively. Kay's for tunes depend on his ability to hold to him the men who were his allies be fore Mills was put forth as a candidate six days ago. Mills" fortune depends on the ability of his workers to pull away men from Kay. For it was obvious before Mills went into the fight that Kay had everything his own way and that probably more than a majority' of the Republican members of the House were In his camp. Vawter Still in the Race. W. I. Vawter, of Medford. holds him self still In the runnlns for Speaker, though he admits the greater po tency of both Mills and Kay. But the Jackson man thinks the see-saw between Kay and Mills is sure to be an interminable balance and that one of the two will need his weight to land on terra flrma or that after the two have see-sawed to a finish he, can in herit the best place on the. teeter board. "With these two alternatives In view, "Vawter paid a visit to the politi cal mlghtleg of Multnomah County last week, and entered into the pre liminaries of a protocoL The Mills boomers are encouraged to believe that at the proper time the "Vawter patriots will be on their end of the see-saw. So sharp is the fight between Mills and Kay likely to be. that Vawter's In fluence will be of strategic Import ance. The Mills workers would like to have the six votes which Mr. Vaw ter is said to have pledged to himself In Southern Oregon, for they need them in their business. And there is such an anxlousnesit in the Kay camp, lest some of those 28 votes which Kas claims as "promised" may be stolen away, that the Marion candidate would probably like to have the Vawter votes too. "Whatever comes to pass, Vawter seems to be in a fair way to have "goo'd things" passed out to himself and his compa triots and to regale himself with the hope that he may become a compromise candidate. He will be in town again in a day or two, ready to talk business again. Mills' Boom Is Growing. Meanwhile the Mills boom, buoyed up by the Republican organization not only of Multnomalr County, but of the state, is said to be receiving accretions from places where Mr. Kay has thought him self fortified. A strenuous endeavor la being put forth to break up Kay's sup port in Eastern Oregon, where the Mar Ion man believed he had lined up prac tically all of the 11 votes from that Dart of the state. Such men as Jayne, ol "Wasco; Steiner, of Klamath. Lake, Crook and Grant; McLeod, of Union: Smith, oi Baker; Stltz, of Malheur, and Harney and Cole, of Umatilla and Morrow, are sought after by the Mills managers. All of them were said by the Kay people to be allied with the Marlon man. The "Wash ington delegation of three men, consisting of Print. Barnes and Newell and the Clackamas delegation, consisting ol Bramhall.'Jagger and Huntley, are storm centers Just now. The MIHs people ex press confidence In being able to land the six men from those counties even against Mr. Kay's confidence In the steadfastness to -himself of the three-men from "Wash ington and two from Clackamas. Then, too, Carter, of Benton, and "West, of Til lamook and Yamhill, 'both said to have been avowed Kay men before the advent of Mills Into the arena, are feeling the influences that are working for the Mult nomah candidate. Mayger, of Columbia, Is another man on whom both the Kay and the Mills forces are relying; also Gray and Sonnemann. of Douglas, who are understood to be backing Vawter and on whom Kay Is relying for second choice. WAHT TO CHANGE. Ministerial Association Advocates Present Local-Option Law Prevail. The Ministerial Association of Portland Is still urging the closing of the Lewis and Clark Fair on Sundays. At Its meeting in the Taylor-Street M. E. Church yesterday the matter was again brought up and the following resolution passed: "Resolved, that It is the sense of this association that it will be best for all concerned that the gates of the Lewis and Clark Fair be closed on Sunday, but inasmuch as the directors of said Fair have not publicly said what will be done In this fegard. that we appoint a com mittee to confer with the directors on the matter. B. L. House, chairman of the asso ciation, stated that he had found that some departments of the Fair would be open on Sundays. It Is the wish of the association that the entire Fair shall be closed on Sundays and their work will be continued with this end in view. It was announced at the meeting of the association yesterday that Booker T. "Washington will be In Portland during the latter part of June, and it was de cided to make arrangements to have him deliver at least one lecture here. Another matter before the association was that of the local option law. No change or amendment to the present law is desired, and a committee of the follow ing clergymen was appointed to take the matter up with the Legislature: C. E. Cllne, M. D. McClelland and B. Nelson Allen. PREPARE TO VIEW THE ECLIPSE American and British Astronomical Expeditions to Go to Labrador. OTTAWA, Ont, Jan. 2. Arrange ments are now beine made through the Newfoundland government for the con veyance of British and. American as tronomical expedition to Labrador next Summer, for the purpose of observing the total eclipse of the sun on Au gust 30, 1905. The matter has to be arranged In advance for the coast Is now blocked with ice and will not be free until July, leaving only a few weeks in which to transport the parties to the far northern region and enable them to Install all the observation points selected with their telescopes and other instruments. The ecllDse can be observed most advantageously in Labrador, because the period of eclipse will last longer there (a little over two minutes) than any other place on this continent." In Time of Face. In the first months of the Russia-Japan war we had a striking example of the necessity for preparation and the early advantage of those who, so to speak, "have shingled their roofs in dry weath er." The virtue of preparation has made history and given to us our greatest men. The Individual as well as the Nation should be prepared for any emergency. Are you prepared to successfully combat the first cold you take? A cold can be cured much more quickly when treated as soon as It has been contracted and be fore it has become settled In the system. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy Is famous for its cures of colds and It should be kept at band ready for instant use. For sale by all druggists.
