BEAT CHAMPION

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. q
Andy Mulligan, well known sport
ing manager of Hot Springs, will
soon make Los Angeles his head
quarters. He has deposited with
Eddie Graney, $1,000 to bind a
match between Kid Scaler, light
weight champion of the northwest,
and the winner of the Gans-Nelson
or the Attell- Moran fight, the con-
test to be held in Los Angeles.
There will be side bet of $500.
Mulligan says Scaler is able to
hold his own with any lightweight
in the ring for ten rounds, and he
believes Scaler can Outlook any of
the topnotchers, at least his idea is
to give the boy chance to make
name.
Mulligan recently secured the
management of Kid Scaler and
writes that he intends to put the
boy to the front ranks 1t was at
Mulligan's Hot Springs club that
Battling Nelson turned out The
Battler and Mulligan are friendly,
and Mulligan says he will get

fight Nelson has been Scaler's
secret ambition. Twice he has
been matched with him, but each
time something came up to prevent
them getting together.

expositions. Special attention will
be given by the government to ex-
hibits from Alaska, Hawaii and the
Philippines and of Pacific ocean
fisheries.
A large number of the states of
the union are making arrangements
for their participation. Oregon
made an initial appropriation of
$4,000 and will give $4,000 more
at the 1909 session of its legislative
assembly. Oregon's building is
nearly complete. California has
broken ground for large building
in the old Spanish mission style of
architecture, and already finds that
it will need more money in addi-
ton to the 800. 900 appropriation
made by its legislature in 1907.
Washington appropriated 800, 900
for its participation, and will erect
a number of buildings, among them
state building which will be the
/ finest and most costly state build
ing ever seen at an exposition.
| The amusement section of the ex-
position, known at Chicago as the
/ Midway, at st. Louis as the Pike, at
| Portland as the Trail, and at James
town as the Warpath, will be
known at Seattle as the Pay Streak,
term well known to miners in all
countries, and especially to those
who have worked along the Pacific
coast and in Alaska. The Pay
Streak will be three-quarters of a
mile in length. 1t is the aim of the
exposition company to get away
from the old and threadbare class
Of amusement features at exposi-
| tons.

Special Correspondence to The Press
SEATTLE, Wash, Sept. 2.-The
Alaska-Yukon-Pacifc exposition,
which is to be held at Seattle,
Wash, from June l to October 16,
1909, has made more rapid progress
toward completion than any other
national exposition ever held in the
United States.
On Aug. i the management was
able to estimate conservatively that
the exposition was 65 per cent COM
plete in its physical work. Without
doubt the exposition will be COM
plete in every department on the
day fixed for the formal opening.
The exposition company is amply
supplied with funds for completing
its work. The capital stock of the
controlling corporation, fixed at
100000, has been fully subscribed
and paid in, and the several coun-
ties of the state of Washington
have contributed in the way of di-
rect aid over 100000 more. Many
of the counties will erect buildings
of their own. The exposition will
have 10 large exhibit buildings.
These are: Manufactures, agricul-
ture, mines, fisheries, fine arts, ma.
chinery, transportation, oriental
European and forestry.
The United States congress has
officially recognized the exposition,
appropriating 100000 for a govern
ment exhibit and six buildings The
government exhibit will be the fin
est ever made by the government
