HELD AT HOTEL PORTLAND
C'Hptaiu Frank Lonergan, Who
Headed Winning Team, Present-
ed With Gold Watch E. Plow
den Molt His Successor.
E. Plowden Stott, quarterback of the
past season's football squad, was unani
mously chosen captain for 1908. and Cap
tain Frank J. Lonergan, the leader of
the victorious team of 1907, was presented
with a handsomely engraved gold watch,
at the annual banquet tendered the grid
Iron heroes by the directorate of the
Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club at the
Hotel Portland last night.
In addition to the directors of the club,
the members of the football squad and
the heads of the various departments of
the institution, representatives of the
press were present as special guests. The
only regrettable feature was the unavoid
able absence of Mr. Stott. Martin Pratt
and Bert Pilkington, members of the vic
torious eleven, who were prevented from
participating by Illness. The rest of the
football heroes who upheld the, glories of
the club on the gridiron were gathered
at the tahlc and were lavi3hly showered
with honors.
The dinner was elaborate, as befitted a
testimonial to the men who labored so
faithfully in behalf of the club, and each
and every one present was made to feel
as though he. individually, had had con
siderable to do with the success of the
past year's efforts.
All Sports Considered.
While football was the leading topic, it
was, nevertheless, brought forcibly to
bear on the gathering that the other
branches of athletics fostered by the su
perb Institution were not without their
uses. Short talks on the various sports
were made by the chairman o the com
mittees having each branch in charge,
and each suggestion, brought forUj
through the attendance of practically the
entire board of directors, was entlitl'.ias
tlcally received.
Aside from the stirring speech of Cap
tain Lonergan expressing his gratitude
and thanks for the handsome gift from
the elub. which was undoubtedly one of
the finest ever made at an annual club
banquet, the speech of Professor Hugh
H. Herdman on the "Foundation of the
Success of the Multnomah Club" was the
feature of the night. Professor Herdman
Impressed upon the club members that it
was unquestionably due to the confidence
of tho mothers and fathers in trusting
their children to the care of the Institu
tion for physical development that the
winged "M" owes Its present standing.
Professor Herdman dwelt on the influence
exerted by the large classes of women
find children, who are Instructed In the
nrt of physical Improvement at -the club.
"Wherever tho home influence Is in ac
cord with the teaching at an athletic
club, that club is bound to be successful,
for it is necessary that we have the con
fidence of the parents before we can hope
to succeed ill developing athletllc talent,"
eald Professor Herdman.
Nominates His Successor.
In concluding his remarks Captain Lon
ergan placed the name of his successor in
nomination. The election was made- by
acclamation. All present expressed sin
cere regret over the unavoidable absence
of Mr. Stott, on whose shoulders now de
volves the task of whipping into line
another winning football eleven.
Manager John A. Horan, in the course
of his remarks, after extending his
thanks to the club for past favors and
tlie loyal support he had received during
the season, made a suggestion which met
with the approval of all present. The
proposal was that the club should recog
nize a second eleven, as was customary
In years gone by. During the past sea
eon it seems that several exceedingly
clever players were among those who
tried for the- senior eleven, but owing to
lack of weight they were handicapped.
It is for the purpose of recognizing
such willing young athletes, that the
forming of a second eleven is proposed.
This proposal will likely be acted upon
favorably at the annual meeting of the
board of directors in February.
George W. McMillan, president of the
club, in his address pledged himself to
exert ills Influence with his successor to
adopt the suggestions for Improvement
of various branches of sport as pro
posed by the members present.
Director B. K. Morgan spoke on cleaner
athletics, touching on various phases of
undesirable athletics in the Pacitio
Northwest Association.
Xo Financial Stringency.
Director Edgar Frank spoke entertain
ingly on the progress of Multnomah's
boxers and wrestlers, while Arthur O.
Jones, treasurer of the club announced
that the club had not suffered from any
"'financial stringency." and was doing
splendidly in the matter of paying off its
indebtedness.

Half Hour Chat With Kubelik
Discusses Violin Technique, and Doesn't Think Paganini Was Inspired
by the Devil.
BY J. M. QUBNTIJT.
WHEN I stepped aboard the car
Oceanic near the Terminal Depot,
yesterday afternoon, to pay a
friendly call on Jan Kubelik, the world
renowiied violin-virtuoso, quite a stirring
display of men's wearing apparel beau
tified the compartment as I entered the
car from the rear end. and a colored man
was handling the aforesaid garments with
satisfied appreciation.
"Are these Mr. Kubelik's clothes?" was
asked, but the colored man answered
not. He wore a I-don't-talk-to-reporters
look. . Just then a young man, who from
his personal appearance was certainly the
great violinist, strolled up and looked in
quiringly around. "Mr. Kubelik?" was
asked, and the person addressed admitted
the identity.
"You must have recognized me from my
hair?" he -queried, smiling. "No? So
many people say they do. And you want
to interview me concerning my early musi
cal experiences? My earliest teacher was
my father, who lived in Prague, Bohemia.
His name was Josef Kubelik. When he
was about 15 years old he suffered from
weak health, and had trouble with his
eyes. His parents were poor people, and
trying to find an easy way by which he
could earn his livelihood without hard,
manual labor, they persuaded him to
study music.
"Without their knowing it, my father
was a natural musician, and he began
his studies by taking six lessons on the
violin Just six. And that was all he ever
received. He became known, largely as a
self-taught musician, and in addition to
playing the Violin and piano he was a
noted composer of music. He also made
a living by growing vegetables and
flowers in his garden. My brother, who
was a few years older than I, asked my
father for violin lessons, but my brother
evidently did not have talent in that di
rection, and the violin lessons ceased.
"When I was 5 years old I asked my
father for violin lessons, but he was un
willing at first to spend the time on me,
remembering his musical experiences with
my brother. However, he finally agreed
to see what I could do after one violin
lesson. How well I remember the event!
I was so eager to please, and did my best.
My father admitted that it might be
worth while to teach me the violin, and
he gave me violin lessons for one year.
Then he thought I would learn faster
from some other teacher. After that I
had several of the latter, as my father
was difficult to please about a teacher,
and made many changes. Ultimately I
had the happiness to be placed under the
instruction of the great Professor Seivck.
of Prague, one of the world's greatest
authorities on violin, and studied with
him for six years. Most of his pupils
practiced from five to six hours every day,
but at first I could not do this as I lived
some distance from the conservatory, and
had to walk all' the way. In those early
days I practiced from two to three hours
a day, and worked harder when I be
came stronger.
"I practically began my career as a
professional violin-player In Vienna,
where I played for six months in small
concerts. Then I began to appear on
my own "behalf at concerts in Prague,
Vienna and -Budapest the latter premier
concert being the most important of all.
Then my career widened, and I began to
play long tours through Europe. I have
twice before visited the United States,
the first time in 1901-'03, when I played
85 times, and the second in 1905-'O6. when
I played 115 times. During the present
tour I hope to play ISO times. After this
city, I am to play in Eugene, then a sec
ond time here and in Seattle, and then
through California. I hope to finish this
tour in April, when I go to Australia."
"Is madame, your wife, with you this
tour?" was asked.
Instantly what may be called the ''busi
ness' tone of Kubelik's voice grew tender,
and his eyes lighted up with devotion, as
he said: "She is with me on this car,
now. She was the Countess Csaky-Szell,
a Hungarian. We have four children, all
girls. Two of them were twins. Our
children are now with my wife's parents
at Budapest, and this Summer they go to
a country place in Bohemia. My wife
plays the violin and piano and she sing
but of course only as an amateur, and
never in public
"My violins? I have only two of them
with me on this tour. One is a Stradl
varius. which no money can buy. It was
nreaanted tn me about six years asro by

I play oftener on it. Its money value?
Oh, about $15,000 but remember it is not
for sale at any price. My ' other is a
Quadigninl, worth about $6000, and I bought
this one myself. Yes, violins sometimes
get tired just like human beings, and
then they require a rest. On the days I
play at concerts I practice only about
one and one-half hours. Other days,
when I do not appear -at concerts, -I prac
tice five hours daily. My favorite bit of
music? That's a difficult question to
answer. But I like to play Bach's "Clac
cone." .
"Do you think when Paganini played
the violin he was sometimes inspired by
the devil, as the old books say?"
Kubelik laughed outright. "No, indeed,"
he protested. "You must think of the
times in. which Paganini lived, when what
is now known as violin technique was
practically unknown. When Paganini ap
peared he was the very first to use violin
technique, as we know it today, and peo
ple who lived before the year 1840 for
Paganini died that year were so as
tonished when he played that they
thought he was in league with the devil.
Then, no oil painting of Paganini exists
today, at least I have been unable to dis
cover it. The so-called pictures of
Paganini were drawn entirely from im
agination, and these pictures usually gave
Paganini a weird, terrible appearance.
One of the great violinists who was a
contemporary of Paganini, was Ernest,
and as Paganini lay in bed suffering from
his last Illness, an unknown artist made
a drawing of the great Italian and in a
day or two afterward Paganini died. This
drawing passed into Ernest's possession,
and when I visited Nice I had the
pleasure of being presented by Madame
Ernest with the valuable drawing made
of Paganini while he lay on his death
bed." Kubelik was dressed in a neat gray
tweed suit, and his necktie was purple.
He talks excellent English, and Is never
at a loss for a word. He also talks Bo
hemian, French and German. My "ladye,
the Countess," was present during a por
tion of the interview. She is a beautiful
brunette, with rich coloring.
ACCUSED OF TAPPING WIRE
G. M. Stevens, a Photographer, Ar
rested for Stealing Electricity.
Charged with stealing electric current
from the Portland Railway, Light & Pow
er Company, G. M. Stevens, a photogra
pher with a studio on the top floor of
the Goodnough building, was arrested yes
terday and taken to the county jail where
he was released on ball. The arrest and
the charge against Stevens was made by
W. P. Lillis, a special agent of the electric
light company who declares that Stevens
for the past two months has been lighting
five of his rooms with 32-candle power
lights besides having a powerful arc light
in his finishing room, all without the
knowledge of the company and has
cheated it out of its just dues by making
unauthorized connection wich the com
pany's wires.
It was said by an official of the com
pany last night that special effort would
be made to have Stevens suffer the
heaviest punishment under the law in or
der to make an example for the numerous
electric light thieves w;ho of late have
caused the company much loss and trou
ble. Heretofore offenses of this kind have
not been punished criminally but recent
inquiry shows that under Legislative Act
1583 of the Bellinger & Cotton Code they
are punishable with either fine or impris
onment or both.
Stevens' case- will come up today before
Justice Reid where effort will be made to
have him bound over to await indictment
by the grand Jury. In tbls event he
would be tried in the Circuit Court.

STATE PRESS ASSOCIATION
Oregon Kditors Will Meet In Port
land January 17 and 18.
Every effort possible Is being made
by the officers of . the Oregon Press
Association to make the meeting of the
editors in Portland next week, Janu
ary 17 and 18. a success, and they are
receiving the heartiest response from
all the newspapers throughout the
state. The fact that over 100 have al
ready secured transportation shows the
keen interest that is being taken.
All lines of business form combina
tions for mutual protection of their
interests and improvement of their
conditions, except the country news
paper, and at the present time, with
the Increased cost of all newspaper
supplies, labor, paper and ink, they
realize that a step must be taken In
the direction of a friendly organization.
Editors as far away as Harney County
have expressed their intention to be
present and in one instance an editor
is going to travel for two days by
stage and 350 miles by rail to reach
Portland.
Many important matters are to be
taken up and many good speakers are
to be present. The meetings are to be
held in the Knights of Pythias hall.
The railroads, both O. R. & N. and the
Columbia River & Astoria are furnish
ing transportation for the editors and
their families.
An interesting and instructive pro
gramme has been prepared and will be
sent out within a few days. The meet
ing is to be one for business only, the
social event being a reception given by
the officers and their wives.
GIVES EXPRESS SERVICE
Oregon General Electric Railway
Makes an Innovation.
Unlike other interurban electric lines
now in operation out of Portland, the new
Salem road will conduct an express serv
ice, which will be distinct from the freight
business of the company. General Man
ager Talbot has signed a contract with
the Wells-Fargo Express Company y vir
tue of which that company will handle
all express business on the new line.
Express matter will be carried in sepa
rate compartments in passenger cars for
a time and the service will be as frequent
as the business warrants. It is likely
that separate express cars will be put on
during the coming Summer, and that at
least three such cars will be operated over
the line in each direction daily. For the
prompt handling of . this business, the
Wells-Fargo Company will establish a
branch office at the city terminal of the
Oregon Electric Railway Company at the
foot of Jefferson street
This express service will give splendid
facilities to farmers throughout the ter
ritory reached by the new electric line for
the prompt marketing of all perishable
products.
The Oregon Electric Railway headquar
ters will be moved to the seventh floor of
the new Corbett building as soon as the
offices to be occupied are ready. This
is expected to be not later than January
15. The company will occupy a suite of
six rooms for general offices.
C. H. Still has been appointed to the
position of assistant treasurer and chief
clerk of General Manager Talbot, vice F.
B. Reed, resigned.
- Dixon to Be Buried in Boston.
NEW YORK, Jan. 9. The. body of
George Dixon, "the greatent little fight
er in the world," was shipped from
New York yesterday to relatives in
Boston, where it will be interred. Two
ministers, one white and one colored,
made brief remarks over the body,
while 1000 people listened. When the
coffin was conveyed to the railroad
station it was hidden in flowers sent
by prominent sporting men and ath

free-handedness in his days of pros
perity refused to help him in his days
of adversity, nor were they among
those who contributed to the fund for
his. burial or who sent the flowers that
covered the coffin.

OLD MAX MEETS TRAGIC DEATH
OX EAST SIDE.
Body Is Found at Edge of Haw
thorne Lake Believed to Be
Charles Rledl's.
Almost completely buried in the mud,
the dead body of an old man who, from
papers In his clothing, is believed to be
Charles Riedl, a machinst, was found
yesterday afternoon on the edge of Haw
thorne Lake, at the end of East Tenth
street. The discovery was made by a
junk dealer who was looking for old
iron. Coroner Finley was notified and
the remains were removed to the Finley
undertaking establishment. The dead man
was poorly clad and but 15 cents was
foiind in his clothing. He was about 60
years of age and answers the description
of a man of the same name who up until
last September was employed as the
storekeeper at the new railroad bridge
being constructed at Vancouver. Noth
ing was found on him indicating that he
had a home or a family.
From examination made by Coroner
Finley it appears that the man had
walked down Tenth street, where his
.footsteps were plainly visible in the mud,
and, coming to the edge of a trench
which extended for about 30 feet down
to the edge of the lake, slid or fell into
the mud. The place at which he met his
death is used for a dumping ground by
the teamsters who are making a fill along
Belmont street and the edge of the lake.

city where my pianos arc in dally use.
These people paid the above prices,
and they know our pianos are well
worth the money.
These pianos were shipped to a
dealer, here who has met yith misfor
tune. He can't take them now. I have
offered them to other houses. They
won't buy them. The instruments are
here, and the freight is paid on them.
My instructions are to dispose of them
to best advantage, quirk.
Since the dealers will not buy them.
I will sell them to anyone who will
come to take them. I will willingly ac
cept the dealer's price. Yes. I will do
more than this I will accept the ac
tual factory cost to build these pianos.
I have only a few days to devote to
this matter, for I must return East at
nnce. If you want a fine piano and
want one without paying a dollar of
profit this side of the factory that made
them, now is your chance.
I am not obliged to get all cash. I
will sell on as reasonable payments as
any reasonable house would take, and
I will sell the piano at cost besides.
Every piano I sell Is accompanied by
our factory guarantee for five years,
and I will also arrange to keep the
pianos in perfect tune after they are
sold.
This is 8 bona fide offer, and if you
will act quickly you will secure the
bargain of, a lifetime.
