Splendid shape for Multito
mall Club Events.
Accompanied by two clever young ring
artists and two equally as promising 'dis
ciples of the grappling game. Wrestling
Instructor C. A. Mclntyre. of the Re
liance Athletic Club, of Oakland. Cal.,
arrived In Portland yesterday, prepared
to enter the contests to be held In the
three-night tournament under the aus
pices of the Multnomah Amateur Athletic
Club, commencing at the Exposition rink
tomorrow night.
The Reliance boys, who worked out
under the direction of Mclntyre at the
Multnomah Club yesterday afternoon, are
a most likely looking bunch of young
gladiators. The visitors at the club had
an opportunity of sizing them up along
side of the Olympic representatives, and
to Jude rrom appearances, there will be
some lively happenings when the young
Callfnrnlans come together.
Instructor Mclntyre's boys are: G. J.
AnlolT, the crack amateur wrestler of
Oakland, at 158 pounds, who is also en
tered In the heavyweight division In the
coming tourney: Frank Brownell. a prom
ising young grappler who goes on the
mat In the IW-pound division; Fred Cou
ture, the 116-pound boxer, who won the
trip North by defeating a number ofi
clever men during the preliminary tour
naments at Oakland, and Iarry Stokes, a
speedy and splendid-appearing welter
weight boxer, who will compete not only
In that division, but also in the middle
weight, or 158-pound class. Stokes is one
of the most promising men produced in
Oakland In years and his. friends believe
that he will win the events in which he
has entered here with ease. This after
noon Stokes will work out at the Multno
mah Club with Don MacKenzle, the for
mer manager and sparring partner of
Tommy Burns, who is now In business
here.
Kddle Dennis (115) and Ijtwrence Grand
field !26), of the Olympic Club, of San
Francisco, displayed some of their ac
complishments before the privileged few
of the club members who assembled at
the gym yesterday afternoon. Both are
shifty youngsters and are quick think
ers and evidently possess forceful biceps,
to judge from the clouts thejr adminis
tered to their sparring partners yester
day. The. Seattle boxers and wrestlers will
reach Portland either this morning or to
night. Director Frank, of the Multnomah
Club, was advised yesterday that they
will be in Portland Wednesday, and ac
commodations have been arranged for
them. The Spokane contingent is also
expected to reach Portland tonight, and
with all these athletes limbering up in
the club gym. the place assumes the
busiest of aspects.
All the boys will be in perfect condition
to enter the different contests tomorrow
night, and. a rattling good three-days'
tournament Is assured.
Jack Grant, of Portland, has been se
lected to act as referee of the boxing
bouts, while J. N. Teal and Joseph Smith
will act as Judges according to the rules
of amateur boxing. Herbert Greenland
will be referee for the wrestling bouts.

If it docs.. why, put your money in a bank and let it slay
there. If it does not, and you wish to get all of the earning
power of your money, read the following announcement, and
question yourself as to the advisability of keeping your mouey
in bank.
We are offering our stockholders and the jrcneral public
stock of a r-ar value of $1.00 per share for TWENTY CENTS.
This stock is amply secured by an immense tract of the finest
hardwoods in the world mahogany, cocoabola, lignum vitae,
espava, mangrove, balsam capheba, and fifty other varieties
of hardwoods, all of the greatest value for use in the manu
facture of the finest furniture, pianos, billiard tables, inside
finishing, and a. hundred and one other necessary uses.
This tract contains over FOUR BILLION feet of valuable
timber, and every share of stock sold is secured by one thou
sand feet, of an average value of at least $100.00. Can you find
better security than thist
Mahogany, of which there is a great amount on this tract,
sells in the open market for from $250.00 to $400.00 per thou
sand feet. Lignum vitae and coroabola, both extremely heavy
woods (running five to ten pounds to the foot), sell in San
Francisco for from twenty to thirty cents per pound. Just
think of this I At the smaller weight and price, this means
ONE THOUSAND dollars per one thousand feet, or $1 per foot.
Our cruisers' reports show that this tract is exceptionally
well adapted for logging purposes, and that all the timber can
be logged to the streams at an average cost of only $6.00 per
thousand feet.
The following is an extract from a letter bearing upon this
particular tract, and written by V. D. Leadbetter, for years
cohnected with the United States' Hydrographic Bureau, and
a well-known and esteemed resident of Portland.
"I have explored some of these rivers for a distance of 20
to 30 miles in steam tugs, and find sufficient water in them for
st Satisfy You ?
vessels to ascend for loading, and deep water is fnund where
large vessels can load at a dock. ... In fact, in all my
travels, both upon Atlantic ami PaVifie Coasts. I. do not recall
any other port where conditions favorable to cutting, logging
and exporting of timber meet the ideal as do the facilities pre
sented in this particular locality. . . . Conditions that are
presented here do not and cannot exist anywhere else in the
world. I have not any sti$rcstioiis to make, as 1 am leaving
this week. ... I feci, however, that you have brought to my
nttention a matter of greatest merit and splendid possibilities.
If I were to remain in tips country, I would follow with interest
what appears to me to be one of the greatest commercial oppor
tunities for capital that I know."
The rivers mentioned in this letter arc five in number, antl
cut this tract almost at regular intervals, running from the
mountains to the sea. This nirvins a tremendous saving in
expense, as the entire tract can be logged. to these streams by
means of donkeys, and from these streams by rafts and lighters
to the mill. Our cruisers' reports show this land to be gently
undulating, not precipitous, and with but little undergrowth
(not more than occurs with Columbia River timber).
Our market is already established. Our common grades of
lumber will all be used within fifty miles of our operations, and
the demand for the better- grades far exceeds the supply.
As to the earning power of your money, invested with us,
and if we cut only 23.000 feet per day, your money would earn
for you over 50 per cent per annum. Hut we want to put in a
mill with a capacity of at least twice this amount, in which
event j'our money will be earning for you at least 100 per
cent per annum.
Coine in and see our exhibit of these fancy woods, and let
us show ydu the proofs of the above statements. The price of
this stock for the present is TWENTY CENTS, par value $1.00.
The company reserves the right to increase it at any time.
