ATHLETICS.
Defeated tlie Mnltnoxaalts by a. Score
o 61 Point to 43 Heater
Was the Hero.
There was a hot ime yesterday on
Multnomah Field, in the athletic contests
between the University of Oregon and
the Multnomah Club. The collegians
showed themselves the warmest aggrega
tion of athletes that bas ever come to
town In many a day, for they defeated
the clubmen easily by a collective score
oZ 61 points to 43.
The Northwest record was broken in
the 440-yard run, by Payne, TJ. O., who
ran the quarter mile in 511-5 seconds.
Heater, the collegian, was the hero of
the day, for he won all five eventa in
which he competed, namely: The 100-yard
dash, the two hurdles and the broad and
high Jumps, thereby contributing 25
points to the score of the University.
Payne, U. O., was another star. He won
the quarter and half-mile runs from the
fleet-footed OdelL The one other first
place man -of the students was Poley,
who ran away with the mile in 4:43 3-5
second. "Winners among the clubmen were
Gaminle, who captured the 220-yard dash;
Zan, who beat the Eugene boys In the
dlbcus throw, and Trenkman, who bore
away the spoils of the high Jump.
Not since the memorable day in 1S96
when the Multnomahs outdid the Olym
pics has there been such spirited and ex
citing sport In Portland. There were
many surprises, and friends and admiring
enthusiasts exhorted their favorites with
nervous shouts of encouragement. The
spectators could not bave been more than
500, but they made up in enthusiasm what
they lacked in numbers, and rewarded
the athletic heroes with generous shouts
of approval. There were many fair faces
in the grand-stand to reflect the splendor
of the day, and the hopes of the athletes,
and to excite herculean efforts.
The day was auspicious for record
breaking before the contests. The tem
perature was quite warm and this allowed
the contestants ot limber up perfectly.
The rays of the sun were focalized on the
low club grounds and there was hardly
any breeze stirring on the field. But the
star athletes had a good deal of heavy
"work to do, and this may be the reason
only one new record was made.
Best of Feellns: Prevailed.
The best of good feeling prevailed
throughout the meet, and although the
Multnomahs were surprised by the
doughty visitors from Eugene, they kept
an eve ntemper and a courteous mien; and
although they saw after the first two
or three events that the odds were against
them, they summoned up their Multnomah
pluck and made the students win victory
by the hardest kind of labor. The Ju
bilant yells of the collegians did not in
the least disturb the equal poise of Mult
nomah good nature, even when the club
men were flurried with anxiety.
The University boys bave had many en
gagements with the Multnomahs, and
this is the first time they have triumphed.
Everybody thinks they are entitled to a
victory after having -waited and worked
for it so long. The equanimity of the I
meet was only once disturbed. This was
after the mile run. Shivis, U. ti., charged
J5an with having fouled him, and Zan
entered a counter charge. After some
debate and a little testlness on the part
of a few hotheads, both were disquali
fied and third place was awarded to De-kum.
onds. Here was a chance for Multnomah
to yell, and it yelled as In the old days.
Score, 15 to 12, in favor of the clubmen.
The Broad Jump.
Tfie broad-jumping contest, as usual,
was .long drawn out. Kerrigan covered
20 feet 4 inches, 20 feet 9 Inches, and
20 feet 11 Inches. -Heater -Jumped 19 feet 4
Inches, 20 feet 7 inches, and finally, nerved
by the close competition of Kerrigan,
made 21 feet 2 inches. Lewis, U. O.,
jumped successively from. 19 feet up to
20 feet 1 Inch. Other contestants were
Tilley and Smith, who soon dropped out.
For a time it seemed as if Kerrigan had
a mortgage on the event, Heater being
unable to beat 20 feet 9 Inches. After
repeated trials, he finally .got a good start
and made a beautiful leap of 21 feet 1
Inch. Kerrigan was exhorted by the
grandstand to Improve the Jump, -and al
though called by such affectionate names
as "Doc" -and "Bert," could not-accomp-llsh
the feat Multnomah's hopes had
been raised by the repeated failures of
Heater, and when he sailed out over
Kerrigan's mark at last, those expecta
tions were rudely shocked and the col
legians set up their din again. It was

The leather workers' strike is over, and

for six weeks will go to work tomorrow.
The Breyman Leather Company and the
George Lawrence Company have signed
the agreement with the workers on terms
reported to be satisfactory to both sides.
The terms of the agreement have not
been given out in detail, but It Is known
that the workers secured substantially,
all the concessions for which they struck.
The burden of the strike, however, has
fallen rather heavily on the working
men, and all are glad to resume work.
The P. J. Sharkey Company has not yet
reached an agreement with its men, but
an immediate adjustment of all the trou

SCENES AT THE UNIVERSITY OF OREGON-MULTNOMAH" MEET.
Oregon's Hoodoo Broken.
The college boys have been waiting a
long time for a chance to break the bad
luck, as they call it, which they have had
in Portland, and they now hope the hoo
doo bas been raised. After the games
they were heard to announce that had
Multnomah consented to leave the weights
in the list of contests, the University
would have run up a score of 75 points.
By another year the Eugene team prob
ably will have become a formidable rival
for the Coast championship, for only
two of its men, Smith and Wagner, are
seniors, and they took part only In the
discus.
The only reason that can be given for
Multnomah's failure is the lack of train
ing of its athletes. Its representatives
are very strong men. but the collegians
had superior advantages for training,
whereof they made good use. The club
men pinned their faith to Odell. He is a
very speedy man, and his defeat can be
attributed only to his being In poor form.
Had be won the events which he was ex
pected to -win, and had Tilley got away
with the 100-yard, Multnomah's expecta
tions would have been realized. Both
sides are equally satisfied with the out
come, however. Decisions were rendered
impartially and with the best of judgment
in trying places.
Tlie First Surprise.
Multnomah bad an eyeopener In the
100-yard dash. This was the first rattle
out of the box. and it almost knocked the
breath out of the Portland contingent.
This was supposed to be a home event,
for Tilley and Gammie scratch gravel as
fast as anybody. After an excruciating
delay, such as always oppresses the be
ginning of field contests, and a heart
sinking suspense such as precedes the sig
nal gun, the race began. Lewis (U. O.)
got off instantly, and held his own well
in the Ifcad for 50 yards, but was soon
overtaken by Heater -and Tilley. Heater
pulled away from the bunch with strong
strides gathered In the ground toward
the goal. It was on easy race for him,
and he slackened a little before striking
the tape. Tilley won second place by a
narrow margin, and Lewis was third;
time, 0:10 2-5. The other two starters
were Gammie and Dammasch, M. A. A. C.
The collegians went wild and yelled their
loudest, for they had not been confident
of winning this event. The score now
was 6 to 3 in Oregon's favor. Thus intro
duced to a promising day's sport, the
grandstand settled down to anxious con
tentment after its nervous flurry.
The star event was the half-mile. The
Multnomah rooters were somewhat whet
ted up by the hard rub they had received
from the 100 yard, and they expected their
feelings to be repaired by the outcome of
the half. This race showed clearly how
the day was going. After Payne had run
away from Odell the Portland people be
gan to be uneasy. The other men en
tered were Zan and "Wood, M. A. A. C,
and Russell and McDanlels, U. O. This
was a very hard race, for competition be
tween Odell and Payne was very sharp.
Russell got away first, followed by Payne,
Odell, Zan, McDanlels and "Wood in the
order given. Half -way around the course
Payne took the lead, and Odell, who
had been hanging close to mm. evened up
to -pass. Then ensued a lively race, which
ended in Payne's drawing away and
finishing in almost record time, 2:03 3-5.
Odell reached the tape almost two yards
behind, and Zan came in third. This
was a beautiful contest. The two rivals
are very smooth Tunners, and seemed to
glide over the ground without even touch
ing It. The score "was now 11 to 7, in
Oregon's favor, and the college howlers
set up their bedlam again.
The club seemed to have stayed its
bad luck in the 220-yard dash. The con
testants were Gammie. Tilley and Blu
menthal. M. A. A. C, and Lewis and
Payne, U. O. Blumenthal thrilled his
friends by leading away. After a short
distance Tilley took the lead, Gammie
holding back for better things. It was a
close race, and the grandstand dared not
draw its breath. Gammie, Tilley and
Lewis courted fortune with varying fa
vor, but Gammie showed his superior
ity at the finish by a cyclone of speed,
which set his friends wild with joy. Til
ley and Lewis had a lively run for sec
ond place, and it seemed on the final 100
yards that the latter might overtake his
rival, but Tilley was not sq easy, and
managed his end of the job so well that
h won the decision, although the heat
was almost a. I&ad one. Time. 23 3-5 .sec- J
plain Kerrigan was out of his usual form.
Murphy did not compete, evidently sav
ing himself for the future. The score
was now 18 and 18.
Heater had no trouble negotiating the
120 hurdle; In fact, nobody could do busi
ness with him, and he finished In 17 3-5
seconds. The other starters were Murphy
and Dammasch, M. A. A. C, and Palmer,
U. O. The latter and Palmer had a hot
time of It for second place, and their race
was almost a dead heat. The decision
was awarded to Murphy after delibera
tion by the judges. Several students start
ed to roar, but were silenced by soberer
companions. Score: U. O., 24; M. A. A.
C 21.
The contestants in the discus throw
were Zan, Johnson and Kerrigan, M. A.
A. C. and Wagner and Smith, U. O. Wag
ner threw out to SS feet 11 Inches, which
for some time was the standard. John
son and Kerrigan soon dropped out. Zan
worked a long time trying to do better
than 97 feet. At last he discovered what
was the matter, gathered himself to
gether, and gave the right twist, which
sent the missile sailing out to 105 feet 1
inch.
Wagner and Smith, the football captain,
took second and third places, respective
ly. Score, 2S to 26, In Oregon's favor.
The score was close, so far, but Oregon's
events were just beginning to come along,
and the home people were depressed.
A Record-Breaking Race.
The 440-yard run was a hummer, and
Payne won It In 511-5 seconds, thereby
breaking the Northwest record. Other
starters were Blumenthal, Russell and
Odell. The latter had his Dutch .up this
time, because Payne had run away from
him in the SS0. He had a set look on his
face, but the fates were against him. He
put up a noble race, and came In second.
He hung fast to Payne until the last
150 yards, when the latter began to pull
In the ground toward home at a furious
rate. Blumenthal got third.
The pole vault was won by Heater easl.
ly at 10 feet 5 inches. This was as every
body expected. Kerrigan, Tout, Knox
and Murphy could offer him no competi
tion, and had It out with themselves.
Tout and Kerrigan quit at 10 feet. Knox
vaulted over Murphy for second.
Poley, the fast collegian, won the mile.
Hansen. M. A. A. C, led away, followed
by Shevls and Casteel, U. O., and Dekum
and Foley. The three first named took
the fore alternatively, and paced the
bunch, Poley contenting himself with a
less ambitious place behind. On the last
lap Poley forged ahead, and with a fu
rious burst of speed tore down the home
stretch, winning by two yards over Han
sen. Zan got in third, but was dlquali
fied, and Dekum. was given the place. It
was a very fast and furious contest, as
the time will show, 4:43 3-5.
As usual. Heater had his own way In
the 220-yard hurdle, and finished almost
on a jog. Tilley got away fiajn the
bunch for second, and Palmer took till! i
Murphy did not get a place.
The high jump was won easily by
Trenkman. All cleared up to five feet six
Inches before the weeding-out process.
Tout won eecond place and Knox third.
Kerrigan did not win a place.
The Relay Race.
The relay race of four laps was an ex
citing event. Redmond and Dammasch
ran the first quarter, the former finish
ing a yard ahead. Lewis and Blumen
thal ran the next relay and got In
abreast. Heater then xtook up the for
tunes of the university and ran the lap
of 420 yards against Kleeman in 37 sec
20 feet 11 inches, second; Lewis, U. O., 20
feet 2 inches, third.
Pole-vault Heater, U. O., 10 feet 5
Inches, first; Knox, U. O., 10 feet 4
inches, second; Murphy, M. A. A. C, 10
feet 2 Inches, third.
Relay race Redmond, Lewis, Heater and
Payne won for U. O.; Dammasch, Blu
menthal, Gammie and Odell ran for M.
A. A. C. Time, 2:36 3-5.
REJOICING AT EUGENE.
College Totto "Wild With Joy Over
v Victory of Athletes.
EUGENE, Or., May 25. The University
town Is wild with joy over the athletic
victory achieved by the Oregon men In
Portland, this afternoon. It was generally
thought here that Multnomah would win,
and Oregon's first victory of the club
men came as a pleasant surprise. There
was considerable excitement here when
the results were known, and the U. O.
students were loud In their demonstra
tions. It Is generally thought that, had the
shot and hammer events been included
in. the programme,' Oregon would have
scored 75 points. All Eugene will turn
out to the train tomorrow to bid the
victors welcome.
To Organize Builders' Exchange.
There . is much talk among the labor
unions, represented In the builders' trades
In favor of organizing a builders' ex
change, In which it is proposed to have all
the building trades .affiliated. The plas
terers' union appears to be taking the
lead. .As yet nothing definite has been
done, but the movement is expected to
take shape In a few weeks.

EMPEROR WILLIAM COMING.
Y. M. C. A. FUND $41,000.
Remaining: $4000 Must Be Raised Be
fore Saturday.
The T. M. C. A. building, with the pro
posed changes and additions, will give a
three-story pressed brick over the entire
100x100 feet, corner of Fourth and Yam
hill streets. If the canvass now under
way to raise ?i5,O00 succeeds, the associa
tion will have land and building worth
?S0,0C0, clear of Indebtedness. The work
of the past week has brought the sub
scriptions up to $41,000. Today an appeal
will be made In several of the large
churches.
The present week closes the campaign,
for unless the whole amount Is subscribed
by next Saturday night the pledges taken
will lapse. The city has been pretty
thoroughly canvassed, but there are still
a number to whom the matter has been
presented and who have their pledges
under consideration. The committee Is
hoping for some large results from these
sources.
The association has 1100 members, and
is seriously crowded and hampered In Its
present quarters. The campaign now on
for a better equipment was undertaken
by the Board of. Directors as a matter
of necessity." Those who have In mind
to do anything toward its success are
urged to give their responses within the
next few days.
Policeman Outwitted Wheelwoman.
A policeman in Central East Portland
caught a woman riding a bicycle on the
sidewalk Thursday. She refused to give
bail or furnish her name or address.
The policeman said he would be under
the painful necessity of calling the pa
trol wagon, but the woman said it would
take more than one policeman to get
her In the patrol wagon. Finally he
agreed to let her go If she would report
to the police station. She gave a name
and address, both fictitious. She did not
report to the station and the policeman
meanwhile found out who she was and
where she .Hived. He called her up over
the telephone and asked her how she
enjoyed her bicycle ride, giving her right
name. Thinking she was talking to a
friend, the woman answered that she
would have enjoyed her ride but for "a
nasty policeman who stopped her." She
nearly fainted when the reply came over
the telephone, "I am the nasty police
man that stopped you on the sidewalk.
You would better report at the police
station at once and settle that fine."
She reported.

A Cornell girl was put on a Grape
Nuts diet and dlspovered some facts. She
says: "While a student at Cornell I suf
fered from improper diet.. The banquets
and other social functions with their rich
refreshments served to completely upset
a stomach already weak from rich pastry,
highly seasoned meats, and confections
furnished by loving parents at home.
"I became irritable, nervous and my ap
petite became more and more capricious.
Only rich, highly seasoned food suited'
me. and this further wrecked my health.
I was sallow, having lost my pink and
wliite complexion. I became dull eyed
and dull brained, the victim of agonizing
dyspepsia and Intestinal trouble.
"I was finally forced to leave school and
came home an Irritable, wretchedly sick
girl. The plainest food disagreed with
me. and I bade 4alr to starve to death.
when a physician advised my physician to
put me on Grape-Nuts Food diet. To
make a long story short? the transforma
tion from wretched ill health to good
health was marvelous. I liked the new
food so well, and it agreed with my tor
tured stomach perfectly, regulated my
bowels, my headaches left, and the color
of the skin gradually grew better. In
eight months I found myself rosy, plump
and strong.
"I would not sell my clear complexion,
bright eyes and general good feeling for
the costliest, richest mess of Delmonlcan
pottage.
"I returned to Cornell, finished my
course, and can now study, think and
live. The food that enabled me to re
train mv health I shall never forget."
