WASHINGTON LOSS
Couples Going Elsewhere to
Evade Marriage Law Cost
State Sum of $20,000.
PORTLAND GAINS $3500
One Hundred Grooms and Brides
Get Licenses Here In Two Months.
Economy Sends Others to
Various Points.
MuchkitU. doctors r.d ministers In the
fte of Washington have lost at least
JJDflni) In the last two months on account
of the new marriage law requiring phy
sical examinations. Portland has been
the gainer by at least 3i3t). and If prices
In British Columbia tally with local de
mands wise and lucky grooms still have
J13.KX) of the , with which to furnish
their homes.
At first thought this would hardly seem
possible, but when It is known that be
tween Tfy and 100 Washington couples
have come to Portland to be married
lnce June 9. when the Washington law
went Into effrct, that Oregon City and
neighboring county seat have also had
their share, and that couples are flocking
over the line to Vancouver. B. C it
ceases to be a wonder. Couples; young
and old. are coming to Portland to be
married, for the ceremony performed
here costs only 8 and WS In Washington.
Besides, they avoid all the bother at
tending a physical examination. Here
are the figures:
The doctor's certificate of health In
Washington costs from V to S5; aver
age The license costs Jo. and the
preacher or judge asks $5: total, $45. In
Oregon the license costs S3, and the
minister asks S: total. JS: doctor's cer
tificate not required. With the expendi
tures for presents, refreshments, and
flowers each of the weddings would prob
ably have cost 100. in addition to the
I4S for fees. Fifty weddings at JlnO each
cost 7oO. To be married at all the
other 60 would have been obliged to pay
making a total of 10.0u0 for the
IK) weddings. Allowing for a sitnilar
number of couples having gone to Van
couver. B. C. to be married, the loss to
Washington is just M.O0O. Besides Hood
Itiver and The Dallea and other towns on
the boundary line have had visits from
Washington bridal couples.
Harry Mills came to Portland last
month from Seattle, bringing with him
Parah Smith, bis bride-to-be. He paid
Deputy County Clerk -Prasp $3 for a
license. Circuit Judge Gaten S3 for per
forming the ceremony, went to the ball
game with his bride after the ceremony
had been performed, and took an auto
mobile ride In the evening. "He was
In the automobile throe hours, but two
other couples had gone with him. so he
was called on for but S5 of the 115
charge.
The second day he took a "Seeing
Portland" trolley ride, which cost him
SI. went to The Oaks with his bride in
the afternoon, and spent J1.50. taking In
the cnutes. the figure 8. the tickler, the
old mill and buying refreshments. In
the evening they went to Council Crest,
took two rides on the scenic railway,
tent some time at the Joy wheel and In
the dancing pavilion, and paid SI for
postcards. They went to The Dalles on
the third day. After Mr. Mills had paid
his hotel bill of S3 a day he found he
had spent tiO in all. besides the S15 for
round trip railroad tickets, and thought
hlmseir lucky to have spent only SSS.
When Dave Taylor, of Spokane, came
to Portland with Miss Kewland. to be
married, he spent only $52.60. railroad
fare, marriage fees and all, while he
would have been compelled to pay J4o for
the ceremony at home, without any
honeymoon trip at all. He spent J1&.60 in
Portland, spending one evening boat
riding on the Willamette, and a part of
the next day at Vancouver Barracks.
Besides this he visited the Forestry build
ing with his bride, went to Willamette
Heights, and to Oregon City.
Tiie average groom probably spends
about S35 while In Portland. At a low
estimate the ICO who have come from
Washington In ihe last two months have
spent fciViO here.
The clauses of the Washington mar
riage law compelling physical examina
tions are as follows:
The County Auditor, before a marriage
license is Isuued. shall require each appli
can therefor to tile In his ofdee, upon
blanks to be provided by th county for
that purpose, an affidavit of at least one
duly licensed physician other than the per

contracting parties are not feeble-minded.
Imbeciles, epileptics. Insane persons, com
mon drunkards, or persons afflicted with
pulmonary tuberculosis in Its advanced
stapes: Provided, that in addition, the af
fidavit as to the male contracting party
shall show that such male Is not afflicted
with any contagious disease. He shall also
require an aftidavlt of somo disinterested
creditable person showing that said persons
are not habitual criminals; the female is
over the age of IS years and the male Is
over the age of - 1 years, unless the consent
In writing Is obtained of the father, mother
or other guardian of the person for whom
the license is required In cases where the
female Is under the age of IS years and the
male Is under the age of 21 years: Provided,
that no consent shall be given, nor license
Issued, unless such female be over the age
of 13 years. Said aftidavlt may be sub
scribed and sworn to before aay person
authorised to administer oaths.
Anyone knowingly swearing falsely to the
statements contained In the affidavits men
tioned In this act shall be deemed guilty
of perjury and punished as provided by the
laws of the State of Washington.
Any pe-son violating any of the provisions
of this act shall, upon conviction thereof,
be punished by a fine of not more than
STOOe. or by imprisonment In the state peni

ACT EXTENDS TIE
Underground Wire System to
Be Granted More Grace.
ORDINANCE IS PREPARED
Power Company Completes Work In
Large Territory Measure Adds
Periods of Six Months
and Two Tears.
September 1 Is the date fixed by city or
dinance when all electric, telephone and
telegraph wires roust be underground, but
an ordinance will be presented at the next
meeting of the City Council extending the
time from six months to two years.
The Portland Railway, Light & Power
Company was delayed nearly a year in
commencing this work by the Lane ad
ministration, which was figuring on put
ting In a municipal conduit for the ac
commodation of all such wires. After this
scheme had been exploited and aban
doned, the electric company proceeded
diligently with placing its wires under
ground, with the result that the work
has been practically completed In the dis
trict bounded by Front, Yamhill, Park
and Oak streets.
Cables have been drawn in the con
duits and the work of transferring cus
tomers from the overhead to the under
ground circuits is being done rapidly by
various electrical contractors in the city.
The electric company is now ready to
take down Its wires In this district, but
until Its customers can be connected with
the new system, this cannot be done with
out working a hardship on the business
interests of the city in the territory de
scribed. The conduit system Is being built
In the remainder of the West Side fire
limits, but cannot be completed for some
time. For that reason an ordinance will
be submitted at the next meeting of the
Council granting an extension of six
months for customers to make their con
nections In the district referred to and an
extension of two years in which to com
plete the underground system In the re
mainder of the fire-limit district.
The electric company has begun taking
down Its wires and poles wherever It will
not work a hardship on the business in
terests. Its new machinery for operat
ing the underground system is arriving
rapidly and most of it is now installed
In the Seventh and Alder street sub
station. "It has been a tremendous undertaking
to Install this new machinery, erect a
nine-story office building over it and keep
the service running in the meantime,"
said President Josselyn yesterday. "It
Is doubtful If such a condition of circum
stances were ever before met with by
any other electric company and credit is
due the contractors and electricians for
the satisfactory manner in which the
work Is being carried on under such try
ing circumstances. The electric company
has expended to date upwards of tSSO.OOO
In making these changes in Its system
and It will cost approximately $500,000
more to complete the work.
"The alternating and 600-volt direct cur
rent service in the underground district
win be abandoned and the Edison 220-voIt
direct current service will be substituted.
This is the most modem and up-to-date
system in general use in the large cities
of the United States. This makes it neces
sary for all motors in the underground
district to be changed by the consumer,
except in a few Isolated cases, where 500
volt direct current Is used for elevators.
That service will be continued temporarily
until the elevator motors can be changed
to the new type. The electric company
is assisting the customer In the costly
changing of his equipment to meet the
new condition by paying him the differ
ence in cost between the wholesale and
retail price of the motors. All wires must
enter the premises underground and
through the sidewalk and up to the vari
ous floors either on the outside or the
inside of the building In iron pipe con
duits instead of being served from poles
through windows as at present."
I and were trained by the wizard. Albert
Schumann. A simple and direct state
ment of what the marvelous animals do
would scarcely be believed. One would
think it a physical impossibility for a
horse to raise a glass of water to its
mouth and drink every drop of the con
tents, nevertheless that is what these
animals do. They also push each other
about in Immense beer barrels; they walk
on their hind feet and waltz to music
One of them actually smokes a pipe.
The trained animal features are one of
I the wonders of this year's programme.
There is a new elephant act in which
! a half dozen elephants telephone to each
, other from one end of the main tent to
the other. There are pigs that skip the
rope and play on musical instruments,
zebras, llamas and camels that do many
wonderful things in one big act and a
donkey that rides a velocipede.
Then for good measure there Is the
most ghastly of all thrillers, the automo
bile double somersault and the act of the
great Spanish wire dancer. Roblidello.
The show will come here with an entire
new outfit. The two performances will
be given exactly as presented at the
Madison-Square Garden in New York
City. Such a hit did the show make there
that In the five weeks of its stay 50.000
people were turned away unable to get
seats.

DEATH OF SCAVENGER ALARMS
HEALTH OFFICIALS.
TOT DIES, FATHER BLAMED
Fred W. Metsner, a Barber, Is Ar
rested on Murder Charge.
That he starved his 5-months-old baby
to death Is the charge lodged against
Fred W. Mestner. a barber, living at 48S
East Grant street- He was arrested yes
terday on a charge of murder filed by
Deputy Coroner James J. Dunning. This
action followed complaints of neighbors
after the death of the child three days
ago. Neighbors asserted that the child's
death was the result of ill-treatment at
the hands of the father.
A post-mortem examination Saturday
showed that the child died from inflam
mation of the stomach, which might have
been caused by lack of proper food. The
arrest of Mestner was due largely to Dr.
Clayton Seeman, who attended the In
fant. It was stated by a neighbor, stated
Dr. Seeman. that the child was left alone
In the attic one whole night without
food and that the little one cried pite-ously.
JIU JITSU EXPERT HERE
Eddie Robinson, of Los Angeles,
Slops on Way to Seattle.
Eddie Robinson, of Los Angeles, box
ing and -vrestling instructor and a JIu
Jitsu combatant, stopped at the Nortonia
Sunday night on his way to Seattle, where
he is to meet Japanese jiu Jitsu experts.
Mr. Robinson is boxing and wrestling in
structor of the Los Angeles Y. M. C. A.
He Is said to be one of the few boxers
and wrestlers who ihave been successful
in matches with Japanese skilled In JIu
Jitsu. This success is attributed to the
fact that he combines wrestling and
boxing tactics and meets his Japanese
opponents at their own game. His hard
est bout was with Shasha Yokayama In
Los Angeles last June. Thla opponent
was over six-feet tall and weighed l.o
pounds. He was defeated by Robinson
who went In the ring at 164 pounds.
SCHUMANN HORSES COMING
World's Greatest Animal Act Is With
Ringllng Brothers' Circus.
The wonderful Schumann horses which
electrified all Europe are at last being
exhibited in America, and it was the en
terprise of the Ringling Bros, that lias
brought this about. Portland will have
an opportunity of seeing thts act Tues
day and Wednesday. August 24 and 25,
those being the dates of the visit of the
world's best show.
The Schumann act Is the grandest
achievement of all the animal trainers
that have ever lived. It has no prece
dent in history. The animals are under
the direction of Professor Edward Wulff
John McCarthy's Body Quickly Cre
mated and Guinea Pigs Inocu
lated With Germs From Man.
City and county health officials expect
to know by tonight whether or not John
McCarthy died of bubonic plague. Mc
Carthy died Sunday morning, and the
results of the post-mortem examina
tion convinced the authorities that he
died either of plague or malignant
typhoid fever. If it was the plague,
they say the rats of the city must
have had it for some time, as these ani
mals almost always take it first. It be
in? primarily a rat disease. Several
guinea pigs have been inoculated with
the bactlli. and if these take the disease
it will prove conclusively that the
plague exists.
McCarthy was a scavenger, living on
the west side of the Willamette River
near the North Bank Railway bridge.
He fed to ducks the city garbage he
gathered. During several days' illness
he was attended by Dr. R. J. Marsh.
The symptoms of the disease puzzled
the doctor and he called in City Health
Officer Wheeler, County Health Officer
Geary, State Health Officer Yenney and
Marine Hospital Surgeon Magruder. A
hasty post-mortem examination caused
them some alarm, and they ordered the
body cremated at once.
Pr. Ralph Matson, who is making the
bacteriological test in the laboratory of
the State Board of Health, said last
night that the organisms submitted to
him had all the appearance of plague
bactlli. "But It is impossible in every
case to make a positive diagnosis on the
appearance of the germ," he said. "A
lar&e number of germs which might be
foviid in the same locality resemble
th.s germ very much. The proof will
depend on the results of the inoculation.
We expect to know positively tonight
whether it was a plague case or not.
But the inoculation might not take ef
fect for 72 hours instead of 48.
At the. time of the San Francisco
plague scare Portland health officials
made a thorough examination of ma,ny
rats, and there was no plague then.
But the rats have not been examined
for nine months. Gophers and squirrels
as well as rats will carry the disease."
Dr. Wheeler said last night that he
found no Indications of plague about
McCarthy's premises. But they are be
ing thoroughly disinfected, he said, and
near-by premises are being cleaned up.
Such quarantine measures as are neces
sary will be taken.
