Worth ft, 000,000.
Members of the Multnomah Amateur
Club are looking forward to occupying
their new home, which will bo on of
the finest athletic clubhouses In tha
Vnlted States, by January 1." The ex
terior la completed and the workmen
are engaged In finishing th Interior.
At firat It was thought that th
building would be ready for occupancy
by Thanksgiving day. but tha magni
tude of tne undertaking was not at
that time fully appreciated. Very few
change have been made In th origi
nal plan, but Dow Walker aaya that
even yet he Is not abla to promise with
certainty that th big housewarmlng
that waa planned for Christmas can ba
given at that time, and it may have
to be postponed until tha early part of
January.
Bidding for rooms in the building
waft eager and every one of the a7
room that will ba avallabl have been
secured, while tha club has a waiting
list large enough to fill almost aa
many more, could they ba arranged
for, within the building. Th resi
dence apartments ar all situated on
the second and third floors.
On tha second floor ar alao tha
gymnasium and boxing and wrestling
rooms. Tha first floor la fitted with
lounging rooms, caard and billiard
rooms, reading and writing rooms and
tha club offices. Bowling alleys, tha
swimming tank and looker rooms are
In tha basement and th sub-basement
la fitted out with Turkish baths and an
additional equipment of lockers.
Th property upon which the build
ing and grounds are located Is esti
mated to be worth $1,000,000. Tha
building Itself will cost $16,000 and the
furnishings ar valued at $50J00. The
new building was begun In March.
Tha big fireproof grandstand haa al
ready been completed and the athletic
field put In condition for Fall football.
Squads from the high schools and
members of the club teams ar practic
ing dally, while the arc lights with
which the field Is equipped makes It
possible for th clubmen's first tesm to
practice late Into th evening several
time each week.

orcan, Coot $33,000.
At a meeting of the Tillamook Coun
ty Court last week an appropriation
was allowed for the building of a road
from Tillamook along the river of that
name to Tillamook Bay and along the
shore of the bay to the center of Bay
ocean. It will be 26 miles long and
18 feet wide and will cost approxi
mately $25(00.
The money was allowed despite th
protest of the Bay City Commercial
Club and about 4 per cent of the prop
erty owners of the Tillamook Bay
region. A communication from the
Portland AulomoU'j Club and the
agreement of the B. Potter Realty
Company to build forty per cent of tha
road wriZt"ut aid and to contribute
t&OOS tha county to apply on the
construction of the balance Influenced
tha court to a great extent.

In Portland Barns Excellent Stock
Is Groomed for Oregon Honors.
Women Horse Lovers Active
In . Sport of Kings.
Oregon Is forging to tha front In
harness racing circles, and some
horses of national class are being
groomed in her stables, while owners
of breeding ranches in this state have
produced horses within the past few
years that bava torn Into national
records. The present season in Ore
gon has not been as brilliant as might
be wished, because of rainy weather, j
out tne snowings maae oy uretron
horse in California and other states
has fully mad up for disappointments
of th local season.
Ther appears a steady tendency on
tha part of all of the larger breeders
In tha stat to better their stack with
each succeeding year. While many
of th old time breeders whose horses
wer prominent on the tracks a num
ber of years ago, have gone . out,
stables are still to be found all over
the state.
...
Captain C. P. McCan, with' his great
ranch at Hood River, brought into
Oregon last year The Bondsman, sire
of the world-famous 3-year-old cham
pion, Colorado E., 2:04. Mr. McCan
brought The Bondsman at the Old
Glory sale In New York, last year,
paying 111.000 for him. He also owns
The Patchln Bjy. 2:10 sire of
Francis J., who won the 5,000 2:08
pace in Portland and In Salem. Orlena,
2:lltt, is also one of his favorites, and
among his young stock, Common Mc
Can, Lucile Wilson and Luclle Patch'n,
give promise of fast time in the races
of the coming yesrs.
Captain McCan has been as success
ful as a showman as he has been on
tha track, and has cleaned up enough
ribbons to cover the side of a room.
...
While C. H. Larrabee's ranch is in
Montana, he la a resident of Portland,
and his horses, appearing frequently
on the local turf, may well be Included
in tha list of Oregon's racers. Mr.
Larrabee's ranch la the largest In the
world where pure bred Morgans and
standard bred horses of the successful
Wilkes and Membrlno Patchln strains
are raised. W. I. Hlggins' King Brook,
1:0? 4, was bred on the Larrabee ranch.
While King Brook's performance in
recent races has not come entirely up
to expectations, given a good season
and a satisfactory track, fast work Is
looked for from him.
N. K. West, of La Grande, raised
Saddon Royal, 1:16, a standard bred
stallion that has since been purchased
from him and taken to the turf of
British Columbia. He also owned The
Commonwealth and has a bunch of
young stuff, largely registered fillies,
coming to the front with promise.
.
Paul Wesslnger, of Gresham. has
Hal 1:04 H. whose son, Hal B., Jr.,
took tha record for 1:03 pacing in the
East. Hal B. sired four fast pacers,
that have been taken out of Oregon,
and are making a great showing on
other tracks. Hal Raven. 1:03, Hal R.,
l:0ttt. Hallle Lou, 2:07 'A, and Hallook
M.. 2:09. Among the brood mares
owned on the Wesslnger ranch, the

track In future. Among his brood

Onlska. dam of San Francisco, who has
been taken from California to .Ken

Among the horses that are making
big showings on the coast at present,
Oregon has produced and owns a
goodly number. Cap Apperson, 2:18V4,
who won the :16 pace in Portland this
year, was bred by J. T. Apperson, at
Oregon City, and developed by S. S.
Bailey, of Alftany. He was purchased

Elinor Vaughn, of Molalla. Cap Ap-
peraon was slrea oy Mmoo, i.n, unm

CORNELL GIVES INSIDE DOPE
Los Angeles Athletic Tells His Idea
of Beaver Pitchers.
Roger Cornell has broken into print
again this time in Los Angeles where
he Is training the Los Angeles Athletic
Club athletes. The former Portland
Coast League "doctor" claims credit for
winning the 1810 pennant for Portland,
because of the superb condition of the
pitchers. McCredie invariably smiles
whenever the subject Is. mentioned, but
probably not more so than Vernon root
ers In th light of the past week's
carnage.
Cornell's communication is- headed.
"Inside Dope About Portland's Star
Pitchers." and Is submitted without
further comment:
"One of the best pitchers that Mc
Credie will bring down for the Vernon
Portland series is Bennie Henderson.
"Henderson is a very reliable pltoh
er; but he likes the fans to keep quiet
when he is in the box. He has a great
curve and a good change of pace; is
not a Marathon -pitcher, but Is very
good if everything breaks right for
him; must have good support. Don't
blow your horns wh,en he is In the box,
as It rattles him.
"Koestner: Great pitcher on the road
and at Portland. In Los Angeles knows
too many people, inclined to get rattled
when good friends root against him;
wia be a severe trial for him. If his
Los Angeles friends stick by him, he
will make it warm for Vernoni but if
they make a noise h will get mad and
march to the bench. He Is a great speed
artist; depends entirely on fast ball.
All's fair in love and war, so guess his
friends will turn on him for once.
"Tom Seaton: First-class pitcher;
best on the team if in condition: but
gets out of condition very easily.
Needs lots of care. Is nob strong. Is
purely curve-ball artist. Is very cool.
You need not blow your horns while
he Is in the box, as it is music to his
ears. Seaton does not like to see
ladles in the grandstand; dlstracta his
attention from the game; good pitcher
to take out If in a hole, but very sel
dom gets there. !
"BUI Steen: One ef the best pitchers I
on the team, but Inclined to be a little
wild at times. Always in good condi
tion. Relies entirely on a spit ball
The longer he pitches, the better ha
gets. The' only pinch pitcher on the
team who can go in on a minute's no
tice and pull the team out of a hole.
Very cool-headed and hard to get rat
tled. t ,
"Speck Harkness: Is coming back
fast aa a good pitcher; but has not re
gained atrength he lost in big leagues.
Depends on fast ball: inclined to be
wild. Must have good support. Needs
lots of attention. Is easily rattled
when not in shape. Is Irish and wants
to fight the bleacherltes tf they get
sassy. He requests the fans to keep
quiet while he is in th box. Do you
get thatr-
NOW comes rotund Danny Long and
announces that his band of Seals
will have something to say when it
comes to who's who In pennant land.
He even ventures the assertion that
the tobogganites really will decide
which club will land the flag.
"I think the pennant race hinges
around whether ,Vltt, Schmidt and
Mohler will be in condition for the last
week of the season when theSeala
tackle the Beavers," says Long. "If we
have our regulars in the field. Port
land will have a hard battle. Players
like to beat a leader, and you cgn bet
that thev will play hard. I have heard
some talk about Los Angeles laying
down to Vernon, but there Is nothing
to it. I know that Dillon and Hogan
are deadly rivals, and if there is one
thing Dillon would like, it would be to
beat out Hogan." '
While he was in an opining mood.
Long picked Brackenridge as the best
bet in the Vernon flinging stable.
Long thinks Brackenridge and Roy
Hitt are the best men to use against
Portland.
. "
Hogan waa unusually optimistic be
fore the tart of the present series with
FANDOM AT RANDOM j
Portland, even though he suffered In
glorious defeat while here.
"Nothin' to it," said Hap. "We'll .
simply murder them. So far this 841
ton they have been lucky against us.
Last year the Tigers had the pleasure
of trimming Portland 24 out of 40
games. All my players are confident
and will Just walk ail over th Beav
ers." ...
It certainly pays to be on a winning
team In the big show. Aocording to
Robert B. McRoy, secretary of the
American League, the present seat sale
Indicates that each player wiU receive
86000 as his "bit." The players' share
In the last world's series was 879,000.
McRoy says it will be over $160,000
this year.
...
Manager Long Is out with the ulti
matum that any Seal who breaks
training rules will be penalized. He is
still firm In his desire to dispose of
Tommy Tennant and declares that un
der no circumstances will he take back
the fiery first sacker.
. .
Manager McCredie routs all the talk
that Frank Dillon made things easy
for .Hap Hogan during the recent Los
Angeles-Vernon series with the declar-,
ation that he has too much confidence
in the character of both men to ven
think them capable of turning such a
Bcurvy trick. He further adds that it
would be virtually impossible for any
club to "throw" a series because the
fans would easily guess what was do

Lacrosse Team Loses Last Game to
Toronto but Takes Series.
VANCOUVER. Oct. 7. The Tecumseh
team of Toronto defeated the Vancou
ver lacrosse team in the last game of
the series for the Minto cup and the
championship of the world 3 to 2 to
day. Despite their defeat today at the
hands of the Toronto team the Van
couver team retains the cup and the
world's championship, having out
scored the Tecumsehs on the series,
7 to 3. -
The visitors' victory today was a
complete surprise, Vancouver having
shut them out 6 to 0, In the game last
week. The eastern challengers played
superior lacrosse today and deserved to
win. Only the fine work of Clark in
goal for Vancouver saved the cup
holders from a worse beating and the
loss of the championship. The play
was clean and few penalties were
imposed.
By defeating the Torontos in the
East today, the Vancouver amateur
team won the world's amateur lacrosse
championship by a total of 9 goals to
Toronto's three in the two game series.

H
ILL MILITARY ACADEMT will
leave Thursday to make a try at
one of the schools of Seattle, Queen
Anne High, who last year gave Wenat
chee High School a close run for the
Puget Sound championship. This will
be one of the hardest games that Hill
will have, nevertheless they are conn
dent of making a good showing at tba
Sound City, even to coming horn with
a victory.
The Holladay Athletic Club's football
team today will - play ihe St. Johns
football team on the Jefferson High
School grounds. The Holladay organi
xatlDn Is probably one of the strongest
independent teams in the city, and haa
laid claim to the championship of the
city for the past three seasons. Tb
St. Johns aggregation is a band of
heavyweights, and will probably give
the Portland boy a lively time- Some
of the club's stare will be Oien, full
back, W. Hastings and Smith.
