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."

RESIDENTS OF NEIGHBORHOOD
COMPLAIN OF NUISANCE. '
Attorney La Roche Will Be Asked
for Opinion as to Powers
of City Council.
The right to re-open a woodyard
without, permission from' the city
council when such woodyard is in the
center of a residential district 1a a
question passed along to City . Attor
ney LaRoche yesterday by the city
council. .... ... . .
The matter arose through, protests
filed by property owners within 200
feet of a woodyard operated by Miller
brothers at East Thirty-first and Al
berta streets.
According to information given the
council, the woodyard was first
opened in 1910 and after several years
was closed. Last July Miller brothers
re-opened it. Between the time it was
closed and re-opened the city coun
cil passed an ordinance making a per
mit necessary for the operation of
woodyards.
W. W. Dugan, who headed a large
delegation of protestants, claimed
that the sidewalk in front of the
place was constantly blocked and that
it formed a nuisance in the district.
Members of the city council seemed
willing to grant Miller Brothers a spe
cial permit for a limited time in the
event that the city attorney hold It
is within the city's rights. A week
ago the council refused application
made by the same parties to open a
woodyard at a proposed site not far
distant from the present one.

Deputy Attorney-General' Is Inves
tigating Case and Declares
Action May Be Taken.
RENO, Key., March 31. 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." ,

weight Is not to be desired yet the
fact remans that many men and wom
en are thin to the point of danger.
This danger lies in their having no
reserve force or nerve power to com
bat deadly diseases. A little extra
flesh is needed by all to feel well and
to look well, and this calls up the
question of how best to increase the
weight. Physicians and chemists by
experiments have solved the problem
of increasing the white and red cor
puscles of the blood by the adminis
tration of 3-grain hypo-nuclane tab
lets, and this is usually followed by
an increase of weight. Obtain in
sealed packages, and take for a period
of several months, according to di
rections with package.
