BT THELMA PEVTCH.
rUffn Dputrfr jS the pirl who. with Walter
Parks, mater uch a furore with their
wonriprfu exhibitions of fnvcv skating at
the Portland Ire I'aJace last week.)
Io you ivant to have Jots and lots
f fun, and experience the most joy
ous thrills in the world? Yes? Well,
then, put your Mraigrht skates in a safe
deposit and obtain immediately a pair
of figure skates.
Besides being fun, you will find fig
ure skating- to be the most graceful ac
complishment, the most inviproratintr
tfport, and the healthiest recreation
within the reach of every one. To see
hundreds of couples dancing and evolv
J(7 difficult stunts on the ice is the
most pleasing spectacle that can be
witnessed on almost any frosted field
or prreat ice rink, such as the Portland
Palace, in the United States. So let
us all pet busy here and join the merry
throng- ot artists.
Instruction Are Given,
I am now going- to give you some of
the essential points that all beginners
should observe most carefully.
The body should be easy and pliable,
with no degree of stiffness, leaning
slightly forward. The head should be
carried uprierht, inclining a bit back
ward the skater always remembering
t h is most importan t caution nevr
look down at the feet while in motion.
The legs should not be stiff. Nothing
sc effectually destroys the beauty and
prracefulness of the movements as stiff
ness oT the limbs. The knee of the
"performing" leg should be slightly
l ent. This rule is absolute. The arms
must hang loosely at the sides, the el
bows slightly bent, the hands naturally
f i ng the body.
The "unemployed" leg, as it is usu
ally termed (which, I may add, is gen
eially employed more than the other),
shou Id always be more or iss bent,
according to the movement, and should
never be held with thf knee perfectly
straight like a crowbar. Unless there is
a sli ght bend to the knee, the skater
has an ungainly appearance.
Curve In Main Elctnfnt.
If T were asked the question, "How
should the body be held while skat
ing?" I should say, "I live while I
skate: I feel every motion; all the
muscles spea k and answer me. as It
were. I talk with my arms, my shoul
ders, with all my, limbs, and think of
poetry, of music of flying, if you
will."
titrictly speaking, there is but one
element ot" figure skating, the curve;
more strictly, two a progressive ele
ment, t he curve or edge, and a non
progressive element, the spin on the
flat of the skate or the point of the
toe f pirouette). By means of these two
elements all possible figures may be
skated. .lust as mere straight and
curved lines a re combined into the
jnore serviceable units of the 26 letters
of the alphabet, so the simple curve
i.4 combined by three motions of the
body into double and triple curve units,
forming a figure skating alphabet of
2fi fundamental figures. These three
fundamental motions are:
P. From side to side, causing a change
of edge.
2. Backward and forward, causing: a
change of direction.
3. Hound and round, causing a change
of front.

JOKER SALVES CONSCIENCE
Monmouth Gets $5 for Damage in
Halloween Prank 12 Years Ago.
MONMOUTH. Or.. Oct. 20. (Special.)
Twelve years ago Monmouth saw
the destruction of some of its city
property on Halloween night. Today,
with the destruction forgotten and the

Mayor Ostein received the following
letter from Henry Lewis Peek, of

lines to you in confession concerning
a water wagon that was broken on
Halloween night. 1905, by a bunch of

it was da m aged am sending you $5
for my part of the foolishness in de
struction of city property. I am liv

No member of the City Council could
recall the incident, but it was decided
to absolve the petitioner and place the
money in the general fund.

COPKNHAGEN. Oct. 20. Representa

RESTS
ON HIS ones NOW
Bronson-Hoppe and Wing-Bro-
meo Bouts, Scheduled for
October 30, Attractive.
WAGNER TO MEET MADDEN
Fast-Coming- Portland Lightweight
Will Be Given Acid Test When He
Is Pitted Against Pride of
Seattle In Special Event.
With Willie Hoppe's contract in his
pocket and Claire ("Kid") Bromeo's
telegram cf acceptance tucked beside
It, Joseph P. Flanlan. manager and
matchmaker of the Columbia Athletic
Club, can rest easy for a few days and
devote his time to gettlnir Muff Bron
son and Weldon Wingr in shape for
their bouts on October 30.
Muff Bronson realizes that when he
is stacked up against a boy that boxes
like Hoppe, perfect condition must
be his Ions suit, and if hard, diligent
work counts for anything MufT will be
in the best shape of his career. He
land his stablemate, Weldon ("Toutchey")
Wing, featherweight champion of the
Northwest, are burning up the roads
every morning, and battering up a
corps of sparring partners every aft
ernoon, besides tearing off the covers
of several punching bags anC skipping
the rope.
The Muff Bronson-Willie Hoppe bout
Is not attracting all of the attention on
the bill by a long: siKht. Weldon Wing
will- defend- hl- featherweights cham
pionship against "Kid" Bromeo, the
sensational San Francisco feather
weight, who is at present in Salt Lake
cleaning up the Middle Western title
aspirants.
Bromeo claims the Inter-Mountain
featherweight title, and will defend it
In Ogden. Utah, this week, so it may
be
champion against champion.
Claire, or "Kid," as his letterheads
read, is a "go get 'em'1 type of boxer.
and Is mixing things all the time. He
1 also a clever boxer and outboxes
many of his opponents. His most not
able bout was when h outboxed and
outfought Harry Pelsinger at the
'Grizzly" benefit in San Francisco sev
eral months ago. Since that time he
fought Charley Moy and knocked out
Jimmy Dundee In one round in Oak
land. Since his trip to the East Bromeo
has met and beaten till except one of
the boys sent against him. He fought a
draw with Willie 5t. Claire, of Sacra
mento.
Wing will be making his first Port
land appearance since his return from
' successful invasion of California.
Wing had five straight bouts in Los
Angeles and won four of them. He
was robbed of the decision in the other
one, according to the Los Angeles
papers, whowere all for Wing.
Weldon fought a fast six-round draw
with Joe Harrahan In Tacoma last
week, and is in fine fettle to give his
Portland admirers a real championship
battle.
Jack Wagner, the fast-coming local
lightweight, will get the acid test
against Lloyd Madden, the pride of
Seattle, in the special event. Wagner
has been improving with leaps and
bounds of late, and the fans are forced
to take him into consideration when
it comls to judging as to who is the
best lightweight in Portland. Madden
is claiming the lightweight champion
ship of the Northwest since the retire
ment of Eddie Pinkman. Pinkman won
the championship from Madden.
Johnny Boscovitch will meet Fred
Gilbert, and one more bout will make
up the card.

the Portland Boxing Commission,

imum rate has no jurisdiction in the
matter and that the City Council was
the proper body to decide just- what
rates should be charged consumers. Tru

made a contract with Mr. Oates for the
$1.25 rate for a period of 20 years.
