VANCOUVER. B. C. Dec. 7. (Spe
' cial.) Wrestlers and boxe-s wearing
. the Winged "M" of the Portland Mult
I nomah Amateur Athletic Club tailed to
.' score one victory in the big Inter-club
- tourney here tonight. Despite the fact
I that the boys from the Rose City were
1 defeated in both wrestling and box
' Ing bouts, they made warm friends
with the 1400 enthusiasts who filled
; every seat in the Vancouver Athletic
J auditorium.
Fred Smith, of Vancouver, secured
',' both falls from Kirk Montague. Mult
' nomah, the first in 7:07 and the sec
!' ond and final fall In 6:21. Montague
was the aggressor in the first fall, and
; It was only through a trick that his
shoulders were pinned to the mat with
" a half-Nelson and crotch hold. Smith,
': however, assumed the aggressive in the
; second fall, winning with a bar-arm
! and head hold.
Fred Hatch, the Vancouver welter
1' weight wrestler, had a rather easy
. time taking both falls from Tom Bratt,
of Multnomah, the first In 4:13 and the
..' second in 52 seconds.
' Earl Mebus and Gilmartin," In the
" middleweight boxing division, kept the
-audience in the anxious seat through -
out. Mebus had a shade only In the
I! second round and at the end of the
third the judges ordered an extra
'' round. Mebus tired badlr in the final
" session, but gamely fought until the
" finish.
Walter Knowltoh assimilated tons
.of punishment at the hands of Frank
Barrleau, but was beaten in every
( round by the clever Vancouver boxer,
' holder of the Canadian welterweight
:. title, but who made 135 pounds for the
bout' tonight.
"We were beaten by better boys,"
is the way Edgar Franks sized It up at
; the conclusion of the tourney. "Gil-'-martin
and Barrleau won their bouts
': and. while I am disappointed. 1 cannot

1 the Vancouver boys were Justly de

WINGED LOVE GOD RESTS
AT IAST MIXTTTE CUPID LEADS
LOXE COUPLE TO MART.
Marriage License Clerk Frets Under
Dearth of Business, Worst, He
Says, In Recollection.
From. 9 o'clock Friday morning,
when the County Clerk's office opened,
till nearly 5 o'clock In the afternoon,
closing time, Cupid, the little winged
god of love, was mysteriously absent
from Multnomah County, if the mar
riage license book may be taken as a
criterion. Deputy 'County Clerk Noonan,
the little fellow's chief aide at the
Courthouse, had about given up In de
spair. For the first time during the
four years he has been in the office
the day threatened to pass without a
marriage license being issued.
A couple entered the door hesitating
ly just as the clock pointed to 4:45.
Their bashful and diffident manner In
dicated their errand and Noonan let
loose a yell of exultation which brought
several of his fellow clerks, of both
sexes, on the run to partake of his
Joy. W. A. Burchell, of Clackamas, Gr
it, r . u. No. z, aged 39. ana Anna
De Busman, of 6029 Fourty-ninth street
Southeast, aged 32, were given a permit
to wed.
Cupid, according to Noonan, followed
the couple In and went out with them
again and to the marriage clerk's In
tense disappointment had not re
appeared with another loving pair in
tow when .the hands of the clock
pointed to 5. As Noonan closed up the
book for the day, however, he declared
that he "just knew the little beggar
wouldn't pass him up altogether."
Yesterday's scarcity of licenses was
in marked contrast to the record of the
day before Thanksgiving, when 42 li
censes entitling the holders to enter
Matrimonial harness left the Court
house, leaving the county treasury $126
to the good. Noonan states that he can
not remember a day when only one li
cense was issued, and F. G. Wilde, who
has been in the office about 10 years,
says he recalls just one.
SOCIETY SON IS ARRESTED
Percy Hal, of Omaha, Faces Charge

Mrs. M. A. Hall, a prominent society
woman, of 118 North Thirty-ninth

der charges of vagrancy. Detective
Swennes, who made the arrest, Is In
vestigating the record of the young

hotel where he lived and taken the
nickels from the iron receptacles.
Checks aggregating about 8200 are
also being traced, and several have al
ready been located, which Detective

them.

Minister Disappointed on Finding
Women Voting; Hopes for4Best.
Dr. and Mrs. Clarence True Wilson
returned to Portland last night after
a tour of the country lasting four
months, during which they visited
Methodist conferences from Oregon to
New York. The doctor has averaged

ries of lectures at the Drew Theolog
ical Seminary at Madison, N. J., on
"The Church and the Problems of Re
form." This series in to be published
in book form.
Speaking of the successful issue of
suffrage in Oregon Dr. Wilson said:
"Of course I am disappointed and still
am an anti-suffragist, but I hope sin
cerely that it will be a success in Ore
gon. Having a high regard of the
sense and sanity of the women of this
state, I think that here, if anywhere.
It will prove successful. For the suf
fragist in Colorado and other states I
have no use."
COUSINS FIGHT; ONE SHOT
Louis Boich Is Wounded in Leg by
Dan Pakoich.
Grudges, which had lasted years,
found vent Friday night at Third and
Couch streets, when Dan Pankoich and

iki Is Internationalized.
LONDON, Dec. 7. Pending the as
sembling of the peace delegates in
London, the Balkan aUies are occupied
in preparing a joint draft of the de
mands to be made upon Turkey and,
it is understood, exchanging communi
cations with a view to arriving at an
agreement defining their own mutual
obligations.
The formal acceptance of all the
powers to send delegates to the am
bassadorial conference to be held In
London have not been received, but
there is no reason to suppose there
will be any delay In the assembling of
the conference.
The position of Greece in refusing to
sign the armistice remains unchanged.
The Greeks are said to be continuing
their campaign on the island of Chios
and at Janina and their ships are
closely searching foreign steamers
found between the Dardanelles and
Smyrna. It is reported from Vienna
that Servia has set up several bat
teries on the right bank of the Danube,
opposite the Hungarian town of Or
zova. Telegraphing from Constantinople
the -correspondent of the Daily Ex
press asserts that Vienna has been
chosen as the scene for peace negotia
tions between Turkey and Greece. He
says the Turkish ambassador at Vi
enna had received full powers to nego
tiate with the Greeks and that he will
be assisted by Ozman Nishml Pasha,
the Turkish ambassador to Germany.
A dispatch to the Daily Telegraph
from Sofia says that if Saloniki is in
ternationalized Bulgaria will devote all
her. financial energy to the establish
ment of a great town and seaport at
Orfano, southeast of Serres, and the
building of a railway straight down
the Strum Valley to the sea, placing
Sofia in direct and easy communica
tion with the Mediterranean.
If this railway should be built, the
correspondent adds; Saloniki would
lose much of its importance. A dispatch
to the same newspaper from Vienna de
clares that Bulgaria and Turkey have
agreed in principle on peace and are
ready for an alliance.
Both countries, the correspondent
adds, are so well acquainted with each
other's intentions that they could draft
and sign a satisfactory peace treaty
within 48 hours.
The correspondent concludes by de
claring that peace in the Balkans
probf.bly will leave Adrianople and Sa
loniki internationalized.
HASKIN'S BOOK TO BE TEXT
"The American Government" to Be
Used by Woman's League.
PORTLAND, DecTT (To the Editor.)
The public is indeed fortunate in be
ing able to secure so much valuable In
formation on the workings of our Gov
ernment, as that found in Frederic J.
Haskin's book, "The American Govern
ment." Its simplicity In language
makes it more valuable, from the fact
that it can be read and . understood
alike by young and old.
The Loyal National Woman's League,
realizing its worth, have adopted its
reading as the opening wedge of the
educational department and will then
hold it In reserve as a reference book
and would recommend Its adoption to
all women's clubs, for It furnishes the
foundation necessary for the making of
good citizenship, of which we women of
Oregon are now a representative part.

was taken to the police station to ex

his belt a half dozen- small traps, the
boy had made the trip In less than
three days, most of the time by the

when he left Tillamook, and none when
he arrived in Portland, part of his
subsistence having been from "hand

bought.
Bakcsy's suspicions were aroused
when he saw the boy walking along
Front street, with his ax stuck in his
belt and the traps dangling. Fear that
he had done something wrong In ap
pearing in a city so appareled made
the boy refuse to give Information con
cerning himself, until threatened with
arrest. He then told his story and was
