Oity
Physician
Must Certify to
Claims by Firemen.

sick claims to the fire department sick
benefit and pension fund committee,
the committee at a meeting today will
pass a rule requiring the sickness cer
tificate of each applicant for benefits

make the first call on the sick man and
sign the certificate. After the first
call the fireman may call any phy
sician he desires.
City Auditor Barbur, who ia a mem
ber AT the benefit committee, says the
action is not being taken because of
any question as to the propriety of any
sick claims presented so far, but Is
merely a precautionary step. At the

$186.60 and disability claims amounting
to $228.91 will be up for consideration.

Portland Girl Is Married to
Austrian as Clash Comes.
HUSBAND MAY HEAR CALL
Miss Gertrude White and Hugo Alt
schul Are United in Old Syna'
gogue at Prague When Armies
Begin to Gather for Fray.
With her choice lying between the
promptings of love and escape and
exile through avenues that were rapid
ly closing with the progress of war.
Miss Gertrude White, of Portland
yielded to the pleadings of her fiance
Hugo Altschul, an Austrian, and be
came his bride August 9.
The wedding was solemnized ir
quaint old synagogue 624 years old in
Prague, the family of the bridegroom
being the only guests. Miss White
who has been traveling and studying
music abroad for the past two years,
was in Vienna attending to the prepa
ration of her trousseau, the wedding
date having been set Tor September
when the command was issued that all
Americans must leave the country at
once.
Immediate Weddlns; Determined.
Miss White hastened to the home of
her fiance in Prague, a trip usually
consuming six hours, but which took
her 3$ hours, and after a hurried con
sulfation with relatives, an immediate
wedding was decided upon.
A postal card to the bride's brother,
I. I White, of this city, told the
news. It was written by the bride on
August 13, from Prague, four days after
the wedding, and in the same post
letter dated July 31 from Vienna was
received. The postal card said that
the bride and bridegroom were at
the Altschul home in Prague, and.
while conditions surrounding them
were terrible, they were at least safe
and comfortable.
Mr. Altschul's business has been
suspended, and it is probable that ha
too, will be called to defend his coun
try. Little Miss Henrietta Tichner, a
niece of Mrs. Altschul, with whom she
has been traveling, is at present In
school in Lausanne, Switzerland.
Furniture la Withheld.
Early in the Summer Mrs. Altschul
sent to Portland for a number of pieces
of furniture and other belongings that
she wished to have with her because
of their associations, and the goods
were all carefully boxed and marked for
'Austria. '
When they arrived in Seattle chey
were held up by the customs officials,
and were not permitted to be shipped,
as the talk of war was then insistent.
The goods have since been returned
to Mr. White, and will be held until
such time as shipping facilities are
resumed.
