PHYSICAL DIRECTOR SAYS WALK OF
BUFFUM BROTHERS NOT TRUE TEST
Head of Loj Angeles Y. M. C. A. Athletic Department Declares Diet Data Gathered by Men Who Made Trip
Across America Are Not Binding Alaskan Pioneer Has Romantic Career.
LOS ANGELES. Dec. 30. (Special.)
The recent walk from Boston to
Los Angeles by Jesse H. and War
ren H. Buffum is not accepted by Pro
fessor Wilbui A. Reynolds, physical di
rector at the Los Angeles Y. M. C. A.,
as having finally determlfied any die
tary or physical endurance questions.
Professor Reynolds pays the records
k-ept on the trip, the physical condi
tion of the brothers, what they ate
from day to day. and the general effect
of th. undertaking on them, are too in
definite. "The fact that Warren II. Buffum
wss on an exclusive vegetable diet and
cam. through in better condition than
hisTirotiier. msy have been "due to su
perior constitution and more equable
temperament.'.' said Professor Reynolds
today. "A reversal of treatment might
produce the same results: Warren Buf
fum msy be better fitted for the test
than Jesse. The oniy way 1 should
satisfied with such a test would
b. where a complete and comprehensive
l-erord Is kept by someone who is com
petent to ke-p it. Thts should include
form charts before and after the trip,
together wltn dnta entered from day to
day or from week to week."
met Not Flaed.
The walk across the Continent by the
Buffums was not fair to them nor to
the theories they sought to demon
strate, according to Professor Reyn
olds. "In the first place, a time limit
should b. fixed for completing the
trip." he continued. "I am not saying
the tlmo they consumed upwards of
fire months was too much: but I am
trying to convey the Idea that almost
anyone could walk from here to Boston
If given sufficient time and almost
any- kind of a diet.
"Ho conduct such a test fairly, the
men should set out with full knowl
edge .of their relative physical quali
fications, to be arrived at by not only
a physU-al examination, but by various
preliminary try-outs. Then they should
have their task laid out for them, and
to he effective, this would involve send
ing someone along to advise and super
vise them, see that they are properly
nourished end tared for. and relieve
them of everything except the ordeal
of the walk -itself.
Wor.-y Held I'nfalr.
"For example Warren Buffum, who
came through on the vegetable diet,
tells me that his elder brother, who ate
meat, worried during the trip. 1 asked
him what he worrVed over, and ho said
it was mainly over the probability of
their reaching food stntions from day
te day. and the possibility of being
caught out and suffering from hunger.
This may have affected the physical
condition of the man.
"To obviate such conditions, an auto
mobile should be. sent with the men to
Insure a supply of suitable provisions
in the way of food and drink, and the
man in the automobile should arrange
the Itinerary, designate the stopping
places and attend to all tbe non-essentials,
thereby relieving the men on
foot from all unnecessary efforts and
acxleties.
"This man should also be able to
carefully note snd compare the condi
tion of the men and tabulate the re
sults." Early Life Romantic.
Harry Dobson. one of the real pio
neers of Alaska, Is In Los Angeles for
a few weeks in consultation .with B. F.
Taylor, J. p. Campbell and other offi
cials of the Budd Creek Gold Mining
& Predgirg Company, which secured
its 12 claims in the Port Clarence min
ing district from him. Dobson dis
covered this rich territory and staked
out his claims 10 years ago. In all ha
owns 84 full claims, and he has done
the assessment work on them for the
panel 0 years, most of the time being
accompanied by his wife.
In this time he hss taken out enough
money to carry him along, and Mrs.
Dobson has panned from 33 to $7 a
day with the crude means at hand.
bobson's career In the Far North
reads like a chapter from a Rex Beach
novel, and some of his experiences In
the Nome district actually figure in
Beach's novel, "The Spoilers. He first
went to the Yukon district of Alaska In
1894. before the Klondike was discov
ered. "The discovery of the bonanza
district immediately surrounding Daw
son was .made by George earmark In
1896. Before that time, as early as
1881-82, men were "rocking on the
bars" at Forty-Mile, and there were
"wage-diggings" around Circle City.
Now Clarence E. Berry and associates,
of Los Angeles, are operating at Circle
City, practically controlling the terri
tory, and the Guggenheims are In con
trol of the Forty-Mile and Dawson dis
tricts. Carmack's discovery of the great
bonanza ground around Dawson was
prosalc-ln the extreme. He was not
looking for gold there. He had wan
dered far afield, and was yearning for
his own fireside. Fryingpan In hand,
he was scouting for food. Idly he dipped
up some gravel and in shaking it about
In the pan he saw the "color." Not be
ing exactly a tenderfoot, he located
claims and became a millionaire.
Selling of Girl. Denied.
Investigations may be made by the
state of the sensational charge that
the Russians In Los Angeles sell their
daughters In marriage to the highest
bidders. At a Christmas eve mi.-i
meeting In the big hall at 118 South
Clarence street the most prominent
members of the colony drafted a let-
daughter. Gertrude Ruth, to Ralph R.
Rudolph, of Pennsylvania. Miss Carter
met Mr. Rudolph while at school in the
East. She comes from one of Port
land's oldest pioneer families, being the
great-granddaughter of Thomas Carter,
whose original donation land claim is
now a part of the city. She is a Port
land Academy girl. After attending a
finishing school in New York. Miss
Carter passed some time in European
travel.
Mr. Rudolph Is a native Pennsyl
vanian. a graduate of Lehigh Univer

and mother bad arranged to sell her

had threatened her with death if she
did not consent. The girl, who is 17

Society Divorce Stirs.
Threatening letters warning him as
counsel for Mrs. H. B. Guthrey, a beau
tiful young society matron, charity
worker and devotee of athletic sports,
to get her the divorce she is suing for
or be shot within the next six weeks
have been laid before the police by At
torney A. M. Strong, of Hollywood.
Strong -charges the letters were sent
by Guthrey, who has been missing
many weeks. Mrs. Guthrey corrobo
rates his assertion by declaring they
are in her husband's handwriting. In
consequence, the police advised that
the letters be handed to the Federal
authorities, and Strong will comply.
Guthrey Is a rich young oil operator
and a fugitive from a court order di
recting him to pay 1100 monthly ali
mony pending decision of his wife's
suit.
The 'letters were mailed from San
Antonio, Tex. Mrs. Guthrey, who
charges her husband In the divorce pe
tition with misconduct, said yesterday
she is positive the handwriting is that
of her husband.
The police told Strong 'the letters
were in open violation of the postal
laws and the lawyer said last night
that lie will push the case to the limit
One hundred members of the Los An

annual banquet at the Union . League
Club, were warned by Judge Paul Mc
Corinick, of the Superior Court, of t'The
Criminal in Commercial Life."
By the use of concrete local illus
trations the speaker brought forcibly
to his auditors the part the business
man plays in the making of crime and
criminals.
"Much of the crime of the business
world," he said. "Is due to the lax
methods of the man engaged In trade.
Most of the crimes that you have to
deal with are committed by men be
tween the ages of 16 and 30. The aver
age man in transacting his business
does not inquire closely enough Into
the financial standing of the one desir
ing credit or the character of the se
curity he offers."
In this day of divorce and trial
marriages, news . of the celebration
of the golden wedding anniversary of O.
E. Newton and his good wife, for 11
years residents of Portland, and more
recently and at present Jiving at 137
South Hancock' street in this city,
comes as a relief and a harbinger of
better times to come. For on the day
of the celebration Mr. Newton. 70 years
old and happyas a young man with his
blushing bride on his arm, gave to the
world some "Divorce Preventives and
Happiness Receipts." They are not
elaborate, but the old-young man
vouches for their efficacy, for he says
he has lived by them for a full half
century fifty years of Joy, "for," he
says, "I can't remember the sorrows."
Here are the simple rules as he laid
them down to The Oregonian corre
spondent: "Shun outbreaks of temper.
"Don't be afraid "to say you are
sorry.
"Show you profit by making a mis
take by not repeating it.

Simple rules? Certainly, but to see

gazing at each other, was enough to
make many a less worthy man grieve
that he had not known the wisdom of

Mr. Newton could not refrain from
showing the check received that day
from W. B. Strong, formerly an official
of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul
Railroad, under whom Mr, Newton
served at Janesville, Wis., for a num
ber of years many years ago. The
check for $50 represented more to the
old man and tp his good wife as
well than the money, for he is not In
need It meant a friendship that has
endured through years and the memory
of olden days when the two men were
working together in a new country to
build up a great business.
Indiana Good Sculptors.
That there are Indians living in
Southern Arizona who need only a
little of the kind of attention under
which genius blossoms to become a
race of Michael Angelos and Leonardo
dl Vincls, Is the opinion held by Mrs.
A. L. S. Hanson, who lives in Tasa
dena. Mrs. Hansen, after her graduation
from college, lived for nine years on a
ranch in this part of the Southwest.
Slie has made a thorough study of the
characteristics of the Pima. Papago and
Maricopa Indians. Yesterdf y she spoke
to the children of the Grant school,
and has been asked later to address
the members of several women's clubs
in Southern California.
"I do not believe," she said lat
night, 'that it would be going too far
to say that some of the greatest artists
the world would ever have produced
would come from among these Indians if
only they were given a little encour
agement inv this direction. Few know
of the talent, that exists among them.
They are wonderful designers. If they
were to be aided in following their nat
ural bent they would produce master
pieces In art that would startle the
jvorld.
"I do not think that the United
States Government is pursuing the
right course in their education. An
Indian carpenter has a hard time com
peting with a white carpenter. But
why make a carpenter of a man who is
a sculptor? The Government is not en
couraging these Indians to accomplish,
that which is in them. Rather, it ia
discouraging them.
'Hundreds of Indian girls, many of
whom excel in artistic work of mar
velous expression, are going into Phoe
nix for employment. To me It seems
cruel. These Indians should not be
taught trades. They ar-far above
that. They are endowed for some
thing much better. Many of them are
remarkable geniuses. Their tastes
should be cultivated."
"How about the theory that real gen
ius always finds a way to manifest It
self," Mrs. Hansen was asked.
"That is all right, too," she replied,
"but how, I would like to know. Is an
Indian to engage in art when the task
of procuring his bread and butter is
staring him in the face? One has to
eat.
"I have, been away from these peo
ple for five years now. I hav three
children of my own to take care of.
But I hope that some day I will be '
able to go-back there and devote, some
of my time to bringing about the thing
of which I speak."
