Some additional facts came to light
yesterday regarding the lease of the

printed in The Oregonlan Monday.
The Bollam Investment Company,

$70,000 within five years.
The syndicate agrees to duiiq a
three-story brick building to cost about
JiiO.000. A lease has been made by the
syndicate with Ie Lung and Lee Hong,
Chinese merchants, for the same period
as that of the first lease, at a yearly
rental of $9600 for the first ten years.
$10,200 for the next, ten years and
$10,800 for the remaining ten years.
It Is the purpose of the syndicate to
begin building in January, at the latest.
Mr. Bollam says he was the first realty
opjerator to influence Chinese to take
up their quarters on Kortn ourtn
street, as he owned the northwest cor
ner of Fourth and Everett, now part
of the Bite of the Dammeier building,
which he sold to a Chinese syndicate.

poured out. He Is a master of all the vo
calist's art a consummate artist in every
way." Gogorza brings one of the fore
most of the young accompanists from

paniments. The song recital on the 29th
