BOX-HOLDERS ANNOUNCED
Larpe Number or Reservations Indi
cates That Mnch Entertaining
Will Be Done More Than 700
Entries Haw Been Received.
Reservations of boxes for the Portland
Horse Siiov are evidence that local so
ciety Is to turn out In force October 7,
8 and 9. while the show is in progress at
the Oriental, building on the Lewis and
Clark Exposition grounds. The Horse
Show Is nearly two weeks off but a large
proportion of the boxes have been taken
and more are being engaged each day.
There is now no doubt but that every
one of the SO or more boxes will be re
served before the opening. This means
that entertaining, which was so popular
during the two previous horse 6hows.
will again be. a very pleasant feature.
Ambrose Cronin. president of the Hunt
Club, has Just compiled the following list
of those who ' have already reserved
boxes:

Vancouver Hunt Club.
There will be accommodations, outside
of th boxes, for seating 10 people and
Hunt Club Officers predict that these ac
commodation will be taxed. The horses
to be shown this year will be both more
numerous and of higher class than those,
entered in the two shows already held
and it is believed that the show this
year will accordingly draw much larger
crowds.
Expect Crowds Every Night.
Report received from Victoria. B. C
where a horse show has been In progressj
throughout the entire week, are to the
effect that the attendance there has been
very satisfactory. While Victoria is
known as a -city where riding and driving
are very popular, it is argued if that
place can support a six-day show, Port
land with- a much larger population,
should crowd the Oriental building to the
limit during the three days of the event
here.
Those who have In hand arrangements
for the local show are confidently pre
dicting that H will surpass In every way
both the Victoria shows and the one to
be held in Seattle. In fact it is declared
that the Portland show will bring' to
gether the fines collection of horses and
the most skilled riders and drivers ever
assembled at one time in the Pacilio
Northwest. There, will be over 250 horses
here, and ao manjf of these will be shown
in more than one claw, about 700 entries
will be catalogued. The value of the
horses to bo exhibited will be in the
neighborhood- of 1150,000.
Several cltixens of Portland have
profited by the shows of the past and
are now the owners of some splendid
specimens of horse flesh, some of them
even having taken the trouble to visit
New York City and there select horses
of considerable show merit in order
that they might he In the front rank
of exhibitors. The principal reason
for the activity of. the Portland horse
lovers Is that Vancouver and Victoria,
B. C-. exhibitors have imported a large
number of the. finest English . and
Scotch show horses, which means that
there will be the keenest competition
at the coming Portland show, as well
as . all over the show circuit of the
Pacific Northwest.
Among the newly imported show
horses secured by Portland eouine
lovers Is Flashlight, a famous' New
Tork show horse which was recently
purchased by J. P. O'Brien for his
daughter. Miss-Lucille. Miss O'Brien,
who is a clever horse woman, will ex
hibit this splendid specimen of horse
flesh at the Portland show, and may
show her entry at the other North
western exhibits. Among the other
Portland people to add new blood to
their stables are Mrs. H. C- Wortman
and her daughter. Miss Markham.. Mrs.
A. Keyer and H. C Embody. Professor
Samuel E. Kramer, who will act as
assistant to President Cronin at the
coming show, is an expert whip anr
has undertaken the training of sev-
: eral of the imported show animals.
LECTURES 0N "HAMLET"
James Younfj, Shakespearean Schol
ar, Talks to Audience at Orpheum."
James Toung, an exponent of Shake
spearean drama, was heard at the
Orpheum Theater yesterday morning In a
xinique and Interesting lecture on "A
Rational View of Hamlet.'" which was
given complimentary to the teachers of
the public and private schools and the
clubwomen of Portland. The programme
also included a recital of the interview
between Hamlet and his mother, in which
Mr. Toung assumed the four characters
in the scene. -,
The subject was treated In an entirely
original manner, and Mr. Toung proved
to be a delineator and an analyzer of
character a lecturer who lectures dra
matically, and who is an educator. In
liis discussion of this most widely known
and interpreted plays," Mr. Young dwelt
on Its charming simplicity and brought
out the similar sweetness and charm of
llnmlet's own nature. He came to the
rescue of the character wherever It had
been accused of weakness, and illustrat
ed his lecture with timely quotations
from the melancholy Dane.
The three characteristics of the prince,
which have been most discussed, are his
mystery, madness and weakness of char
acter. But Mr.- Young does not regard
Hamlet as mysterious in any way, and
gave many Interpretations In proof, of his
assertion that mysticism is not a part of
his character. Regarding his madness,
Mr. Young's emphatic idea is that Shake
speare did not intend to create such an
Idea, instead, giving the world In Hamlet
a character that would live forever; and
since to our modern eyes, said Mr.
Young, Hamlet has every appearance of
sanity it would be a natural conclusion
that his contemporaries would consider
him of unsound mind. No other author
has ever dared produce a Hamlet, and
no other -writer tnan enaaespeare pos
sesses the prophetic instinct which is the
strongest Indication of his pre-eminent

There are practically no fish in the

tie. Mr. Dickson experienced some dif
ficulty in deciding whether Portland or
Seattle should be first, on the floor. The
rules of the contest provided that the
lodge making the first entry ehould be
first on the floor, but Seattle and Port
land lodges entered the same day. It
was therefore suggested by the execu
tive committee that Portland and Seattle
east lots, but Seattle declined. Hassalo
then, upon advice of Dr. Stryker, Dr.
Newcastle, Henry S. Westbrook and
George Cummings, waived theee rights In
favor of Seattle.
The contest was held in the Eagles
Hall, Seventh avenue and Pine street.
Long before the hour for opening an
assemblage of 2500 Oddfellows from all
parts of the world filled the hall, and as
many more were denied admittance for
lack of room. The Judges were B. D.

Winnipeg, Man.; O. E. Tlsdale. grand

R. G. Elliott, P. G. M., P. x. P.. P. G. R.

Hassalo Lodge entered the contest
amidst the plaudits of an enthusiastio

on arrangements mounted the rostrum
