SOME APPROVE WEDDING T3TE 3IOHXIXG OREGOXIAX, THURSDAT, MINISTERS COMMENT ON MARY'S MARRIAGE NAT Pretty Omaha Widow "Mushes' Over Alaskan Trails to Regain Health Caribou Killed. With the record of being the first white woman to visit the. Mount Mc Kinley national par in Alaska, with miles and miles of "mushing" to "her credit, with a caribou and o.ther big game scalps testifying to her marks manship, and, best of all, with her health entirely restored after a year in the Interior, Mrs. Ruth Y. Wilson, pretty young Omaha widow, arrived In Portland yesterday. She was a passenger on the steamer Alaska that reached Seattle last Friday. She left last night for California. Mrs. Wilson is he wife of the late Frank H. Wilson of Omaha, former wire chief of the Nebraska Telephone company, who was killed at Fremont, Neb., In 1918. After being selected for overseas service in the war and hav ing the armistice put an end to those activities, Mrs. Wilson suffered a nervous breakdown and set out on a !O00-mile Journey to visit her brother, William Campbell, a mining man at Fairbanks for the last 22 years. Experiences Kaleidoscopic. From the time she arrived at Fair fiauks until she reached Portland yes terday Mrs. Wilson's experiences have kept her at the highest pitch of en thusiasm over the wonders of Alaska. From Fairbanks she made the trip to Cordova and Chi tin la over the Cop per river railroad, took the long trail, 300 miles, by stage over the Alaska and coast ranges. In April, 1919, she was on the move by train, automobile, ledge, dog sled, steamboat and afoot, penetrating into the deserted wilds of the interior. She was on the first steamer to make the trip up the KantlBhna to the deserted mining camp, Roosevelt City, since the gold strike was made there In 1906. The steamer carried two barges loaded with supplies for Joe Dalton and Mr. and Mrs. Joe A. Qulgley, the only persons left at Roosevelt City. It was the first sup plies they had received except by packing in more than 12 years. Tom Dalton was at Forty Mile before the Dawson strike and has never been out since, and' the Qulgleys have not been outside in many yeare. From Roosevelt City Mrs. Wilson started on her first mush, 30 miles to the Qulgley home, where she was taken in charge by Mrs. Qulgley, or as she is known throughout the in terior, Fannie McKenzle Qulgley. A hunting trip to the Bear creek country which netted nine moose, five black bear and four glaciec bear was the first experience with the Quig leys, and then a trip was undertaken to the Mount McKinley national park and Wonder lake. - ThU entailed ten-day boat trip' up the Tanana river into the Kantlshna country and Big Moose creek canyon, believed by scientists to be the old bed of the McKinley river. Days of hiking fol lowed with good hunting all the way Mrs. Wilson had her first shot at big game and brought down a caribou with her first shot. Mountain goats and bear were later added to her trophies. On one hunt nine rams were killed and Mrs. Wilson got per mission to bring a couple of heads out. Gold Claims Staked. The gold fever struck this intrepid little woman while she was in the deserted Roosevelt City camp and she staked out several claims on which her brother is now doing assessment work. The one mine operating in that .section is turning out rich ore ac cording to Mrs. Wilson, so rich that It pays to pack and transport it .sev eral hundred miles in sacka to the nearest smelter. The steamer Bhu tan a, which made the first trip to Kooseveu city in 12 years, brought back several tons of ore which had been packed in sacks 30 miles. Mrs. Wilson's enthusiasm for Alask: know no bounds. "It is the most won derful country in the world," Bhe de Blared. "Mr. and .Mrs. Qulgley, who were so kind to me, live nearly 6000 feet up on the mountain side and Mrs. Juigiey raises enough vegetables for their use right there."

The entire record , of the Mary Plckford divorce case is under a. close investigation by Robert Richards, deputy attorney- general of Nevada, for the purpose or ascertaining whether it holds any ir regularities or evidence of fraud or collusion that would justify an action being taken to set the decree aside. The deputy attorney-general said this morning that when his Investigations are concluded action undoubtedly will be taken by the state in case the facts justify it. 'Just at this time," said the deputy attorney-general, "I am unable to say what will develop In the Plckford case because the investigation I am mak ing has not been completed. I am going over the entire record of the case and if there are irregularities or any evidence that a fraud was worked on the court or that there .s collusion, some action undoubt edly will be taken to set the decree aside." LOS ANGELES, March 31. Mary Plckford, whose marriage Sunday night to Douglas Fairbanks became known yesterday, tonight declared there had been no collusion or ar rangement of any kind between her self and Owen Moore, from whom she obtained a divorce in Nevada early in March, to enable her to secure a decree. Money Settlement Denied. She asserted also there had been no financial settlement between herserf and Mr. Moore and declared the Ne vada authorities reported investigat ing the circumstances surrounding her divorce would find her statement correct. "Everything was all right." she said at the Fairbanks residence in Beverly Hills near here. "I have nothing to fear from any investiga tion." According to dispatches telling of the divorce, Moore was served with papers in the case at Wally Springs, Nevada, March 1. The next day, after a brief hearing at Minden, Nev., be fore Judge Langan, a decree was granted on the grounds of desertion. Moore did not contest the case, but was represented in court by counsel, dispatches stated. Upon his return here, Moore said in an interview: "There was absolutely nothing pre meditated about the divorce." He said he had been "on location" at Wally Springs when the papers were served on him. Opportune Time Coram. When Miss Plckford returned here from Minden March 6 she gave out an interview in which she said: "I went to Minden three weeks ago with my mother. I had not planned to secure a divorce at 'that time. I was nervous and unable to work at the studio and I wanted a rest. A friend of mine recommended Wally Springs, a quiet, healthful place near Minden and high up in the mountains. While I was there I was informed that Mr. Moore was not so far away, working on location. Then I decided it was the opportune time. I had no knowledge beforehand that Moore would not contest the case, so I im mediately engaged an attorney and filed my complaint. "Mr.- Moore certainly did not re ceive any sum of mony from me with the request that he refuse to contest the case." Mrs. Fairbanks said tonight that statement still held good. Owen Moore could not be located tonight. LOS ANGELES, March 31. Appar ently overwhelmed by the rush of the curious, Mr. and Mrs. Douglas Fair banks plugged their telephone at their Beverley Hills home here today, and drecllned to receive further visitors. Members of the household declined to convey to them word of proposed ac tion in Reno to Investigate the di vorce decree recently granted Mrs. Fairbanks (Mary Pickford) from Owen Moore, which decree paved the way for her marriage to Mr. Fairbanks. Right Rev. Bishop Cantwell of the Catholic diocese of Monterey and Los Angeles, issued a statement here to day on the theme of divorce and re marriage. Mrs. Fairbanks is a Cath olic Bishop Cantwell characterized di vorce as "the greatest of all modern evils," deplored what he character ised as a trend toward laxity and closed by saying: "The laws of God and man must be obeyed for conscience sake. Laws wisely made for government of civil and social life should not be easily set aside. I fear that we in Los An geles are not giving to the world at large an example of the ideal Chris tian life." , TAX LIMIT ATTACKED Portland Ad Club. Thinks Restric tion Is Expensive in End.
