OLYMPIC CLUB IS .:>~... :: AGAIN IN FAVOR
WILL. REJoIN THE AMATEUR
 ATHLETIC UNION.
Election: of a Nominating Committee .':; Goes Over: Till Friday Night. *:.. No Difficulty Expected.

The members of the directorate of the Olympic Club have determined to rejoin the. Pacific Association; of the Amateu Athletic Union. and thus regain the posi- tipn. in the field of sport that they gave up voluntarily last year. The reconcilfa- tfon of. the club: and the association was effected by the football enthusiasts, un- erCaptaln Percy Morse:
 : The matter. was given careful considera- tton by the officers at their regular meet ing last night This was held immediately upon the adjournment of the members meeting: It was: determined that a con ference should be held between President NewhalT Of the Olympics ard President ": R.. Berry, representing the associa- ti0n. The question upon which they diff :fered originally will be discussed. This has reference to the representation of the club upon the beard of governors
 Their original contention was that it was upjust that a rowing club, with twenty members should have equal rep Fesentation with the Olympic Club and It's great membership. They claimed that the boating men dominated the associa- ton, and gave no heed to the development of other sports. If the. matter of repre- sentation can be adjusted the big club will be again within the fold.
 President. Newhall has instructed Cap tain Morse to prepare a statement as to what the club has done in football, what material he has in view for team and pect from the parent organization. The conclusion will then be reached readily as to. whether the winged 70" will be seen upon the gridiron this season.
 The meeting of the club members to elect a nominating committee was not a success. A quorum was not present and President. Newhall at once adjourned the meeting until Friday night. This Is the occasion of the McConnell-Tracey fight and 1t Is expected that the business will then be completed. President Newhal said that he anticipated no difficulty iI the matter He said that he had promises mittee He also said that good men ha6 been found who will accept office, so there will not be- a repetition of the difficulty experienced in the past.

OF LOW-GRADE ORE

J. R. Macdonald, president and
manager of the Majestic Mining com
pany formerly the Golden Sceptre, of
Quigley, Montana. was in the city
Friday, says the Miner, and left that
evening for his home in Philadelphia.
Mr.. Macdonald has reorganized the
Golden Sceptre company and the mine
and mill will both be put in operation
in the early spring. The old com
pany spent $650.O0 on the property
and when Mr.. Macdonald took hold
Of the concern he found it in the hands
Of receiver with debts aggregating
a quarter Of a million dollars. Ina
few months the whole concern has
been reorganized and new stock issued
to the creditors and $400, 900 new cap
ital put into the property, which is
now on the way to become one OF the
big gold producers of the state.
"We are well satisfied that the prop
erty will soon be paying dividends on
the new capital stock which is over
two million dollars,' said Mr.. Mac
Donald. "There will be over million
dollars in the plant itself, which is one
Of the finest in the United States, and
we have in sight enough low grade
milling ore to turn the mill for the
next 80 years. The ore runs abont 81
to the ton. b we can handle it for 81
ton when the plant is once fairly in
operation. There remain four miles
~ a tramwav tn he comnleted over
which the ore from the mine will be
transported to the mill. which is stu
ated i'll the town of Quigley. We feel
sure that we have second Treadwell
as the ore in the mine is mountain,
good perhaps for nearly century. and
by our improved appliances we hope
to make new worlds record for
cheap handling and treatment
