an unusually artistic cover page,
the publication contains a most
complete record of the history of
the range, it's cities and towns and
their industrials, as we'll as the
great mining industries. The mag
azine is profusely.siaIusttated,~ but
in excellent taste, and the various
subjects are prepared in good style.

Shipment of Snake River Steers
And Cows Bring Good
Prices,

Eight cars of Snake river cattle
were shipped out Sunday by Chandler
of Elgin. The cattle were bought for
him by NJ. E. Hotchkiss from Ben

The cattle were in prime market
condition and brought the owners the
fine price of $29 each for cows and
SAB for steers.
The cattle market is still improv-

RATE REDUCTION
NOW IN EFFECT
RAILROAD COMPANY ACCEPTS
COMMISSIONS DECREE IN
GOOD GRACE.

The new freight rates, ordered by
the state commission because of the
complaint by the Enterprise Com
mercial club. were put into effect
last Thursday, August 5, and mean
a reduction on all incoming freight
from Portland or elsewhere in Oregon
Of from 10 to Is per cent, according
to classes and towns. The reduction
TO Joseph and Enterprise is much
larger than to Wallowa, because
more of local rate was knocked off,
but there Is a substantial reduction
to Wallowa.
Formerly the first class rate Port
land to Wallowa was $1.69, now it is
$l.53 per cwt. To Enterprise 1t was
formerly $1.79, now it is $l.57 or
but cents more than to Wallowa.
Following are the rates to the four
towns from Portland:

From La Grande the rate was
formerly So cents on first class TO

NOTED NEWSPAPER
MAN IN VALLEY
w. E. CURTIS GREATEST OF
TRAVEL WRITERS VISITS
WALlOWA LAKE,

w. E. Curtis, the premier news
paper correspondent of the world. was
In Wallowa Valley Tuesday afternoon
and night. He came in General
Passenger Agent McMurray's private
car attached to the regular train,
visited Wallowa Lake, and went out
Wednesday morning. He was accom-
panied by Mrs. Curtis and their
daughter.
Mr. Curtis is the greatest traveller
and writer of travels in the world
today For over a score of years his
daily letters on the first page of the
Chicago Record, and since the con-
solidation, of the Chicago Record
Herald, has been eagerly watched for
by hundreds of thousands of people.
He speaks daily in personal sense
to the largest and most intelligent
audience OF any writer in the world.
His letters are the making of any
scene Of natural beauty that he choos-
es to describe. His description of
Crater Lake made that greatest of
natural wonders known to the world.
AS a word painter he has no equal,
yet his letters are remarkable as
Steyenson's work, for their clear,
limpid, elegant style.
So it can be understood that the
visit of Mr., Curtis is one of the
greatest pieces Of good luck that
has happened to this beautiful val
ley, whose treasures have SO long
been hidden by it's cloak of isolation.
In one day it will become famous.
Mr.. Curtis is famous in other ways
besides as q newspaper man. He
was James G. BlaiRe's main dapend-
ence in the attempt Of that great
statesman to draw closer together
the republics Of North, South and
Central America, and was secretary
of the Bureau of American Republics.
He has written many books Of big
circulation and is the intimate and
doubtless the confident of more of
the great and powerful of earth than
any other one man. He enjoys a
princely salary and is free lance
to go wherever his inclination may
lead, his sole duty being, and that a
voluntary one, to write letter a
day for Victor F. Lawson, which is
published in Lawson's Chicago Record
Herald, in many respects the best OF
newspapers.

esting to note the difference in the
training methods of the two men. Bill
Chiffon, of motorcycle fame, is jack
sons manager and he states that he
is going to put the safety valve on
Nigels enthusiasm and keep him we'll
within bounds while he is doing his
road work
Jackson has a way of doing 700
much work and letting his feeling OF
fitness run away with him. Chiffon
will not strand for this, and since jack
son has given his word, to adhere
strictly to his managers course OF
training, we may be sure that he Will
start in perfect condition on the day
of the race.
Tsukamoto is very fond of all kinds
of athletic exercise and amuses him
self with stunts peculiar to his own
nation Jiu-jitsu and sword play he Is
very fond of and finds magnificent ex-
ercise for the wind in INDUCING in
these.
He does plenty of running, especially
up and down hill. In this way he i'm
proves both breathing and running
powers. He makes a feature of at
tending strictly to correct stride
while he is going up steep grade and
also to maintaining the same pace that
he can keep up ON the level.
In running downhill, Tsukamoto
keeps himself back to an equal pace
with that which he can made going up
and, in this way subjects his muscles to
exercise and restraint.
The race is already causing much
comment round town. There are many
who believe that Jackson can repeat
his two HISTORIES over the long dis
lance while there are others who are
equally sure that the Jap will do the
trick. The Japanese population is
very much stirred up over it and there
will be plenty of money to wager OF

how BLACK JACK
Defeated KAUFMAN
Finally, holding

his left into action. Finally, holding
one in the audience.
Round al took the initiative in
this round, and by rushing in put
light left to the face and bothered
johnson for a moment with couple
of body punches. Jack, however, got
his left into action inally, holding
Kaufman off with his outstretched
hands, Johnson grinned at Kaufman's
feeble efforts to break through his
guard. Toward the close of the round
Johnson backhanded Kaufman with his
right across the face.
Round S-As usual, the round start
ed with one of Johnsons straight lefts
to the face, after which he sent in
two body punches, using both hands.
He started after Kaufman with will
and chased AL around the ring. 1t was
in this round that he twice missed, first
failing to land with fierce right and
then with left swing. Kaufman put
in a glancing left to the mouth as the
gong called the men to their corners.
Round 9-Kaufman's nose started
bleeding as the round opened, for john
son worked half dozen uppercuts.
AL twice tried to mix it with his OPP
ponent, but for his pains received a
left to the face and a right to the
body. Johnson stopped his every lead
and gave wonderful exhibition of
blocking. In a elmer, Jack used his
right uppercut almost at will, and sent
Kaufman to his own corner to get
away from his beating. There were
Kisses for johnson and complaints that
he was not working fast enough, but
he made no reply.
Round 10-Johnson tried hard for a
knockout in this round. He rushed
Kaufman and landed a right uppercut
as the men we're we'll together After
another left he forced Kaufman once
more to the ropes and beat the white
man about the face with lefts and
right that Travelled no great distance,
but had plenty of steam. Then he
slowed down a trihe, but just before
the close sent in another of the same
sort to the body.
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1909-09-21

Round Both men fiddled in the
center of the ring, and Johnson was
the first to land with a left to the
body The champion sent another light
left to the face and in coming out of a
clinch shot IN his left twice more.
Again a straight left, and in the clinch
a right uppercut to the nose scored for
Johnson, who easily planted dozen
more lefts before the round was over.
Kaufman hadn't even broken through
his opponents guard, and was showing
blood at the nose. 1t was an illustra-
tion of the mastery of the colored man.
Round John came into a clinch
with Kaufman and showed his strength
by pushing the white man OFF. He
shot two stiff lefts to the race in rapid
succession, and in a clinch uppercut
AL with his left. Kaufman led with
his left only to be blocked, and john
son replied with left hook This was
repeated, but Johnson this time used
his right Johnson used more upper
cuts, and as the round closed jabbed
kaufman into a neutral corner. Again
Kaufman had failed to land blow.
Round 3-Johnson opened the round
with two lefts and a right. Then the
negro planted a hard left over the
heart and cut loose with more right
uppercuts. One of them brought the
blood profusely and AL held on to save
Of n
series of Johnson punches, the right
Uppercqts doing the most damage.
Kaufmans eyes were CLASSY as he
went to his corner at the sound of the
gong.
Round 4-The early part of the round
was a repetition of the three that had
passed Jack started off with two left
jabs, followed that up with three lefts
and finally sent Kaufman against the
ropes with short left and right swings
After that Johnson stood off, and with
open gloves, laughed at the Californian
1t gave the crowd the impression that
he was merely playing with AL and
possibly trying to show him up.
Round 5-As Kaufman led and was
blocked Johnson sent a left to the face
and after clinch hard punch over
Kaufman's heart, Kaufman landed
two light lefts to the face and Johnson
stood with his back to one of the cor
ners and dared Kaufman to come IN.
The white man did come, and for his
pains was uppercutted as he met the
negro. AS the round closed Johnson
was holding Kaoufmans head with his
left and pelting him with his right
Roundw 6-Kaufman missed swing
and Johnson smashed him across his
bleeding face with left. Then Jack
forced AL to the ropes and landed some
hard stomach blows. The men were
separated, and as Johnson blocked a
right with his elbow, Johnson hooked

The date of the Tsukamoto-Jackson
race has been set for a week from next
Sunday October 8. The race will
start at O'Clock in the morning and
should of course be finished before one
o'clock
Both men have started training in
dead earnest. Jackson who works hard
all the time on a laundry route, has
arranged for a man to take his place
and will do nothing but training from
now until the day of the race.
Tsukamoto has his own method OF
training and has already been devoting
himself to it for some time as he felt
sure that this race would come off and
ne wished to be ready.
The judges are not yet selected. 1t
is expected that a prominent officer
from the fleet will act as one of them
and that the other two will be local
sportsmen of note who are thoroughly
acquainted with the rul es of all KINDS
of athletics. In Difference to Tsuha-
motto and the country which he repre-
sents, one of the judges, so it is rumor-
ed will be a Japanese who has been
interested in local baseball and otner
athletics for many years.
All arrangements for the perfect
policing of the grounds will be made,
The bleachers will be divided from
the track and not a soul will be al
lowed inside the track, except the
judges, one manager and one rubber
for each of the two contestants, scor-
ers and the press.
The scoring will be done properly
Each runner will be represented by
board elevated above the scorers
head so that everybody can see just
how many miles and. laps have been
covered by each man. In addition tc
the boards there will be an ofticia
chief scorer VINO will keep tab or
