j ) '. Chicago. Nov. 24. It , is little
mother's Thanksgiving eve. She sits
huddled in a chair In her home,
everything in it had been fitted up
Just for, her, staring straight ahead,
agony written in her eyes. AH around
, her, kind-.Jewish friends whispered
sympathetically. Abe and Simon,
two of the noisiest boys in the neigh
borhood, are extraordinarily quiet.
Bewbiskered men in black skull caps
" walk nervously to and fro, hands
clutched behind their backs. Women
'weep as "little mother' moans and
utters something in ' her native
tongue. A reporter for a Jewish pa
per begins taking notes.

Vancouver, which always expects a

at holiday seasons, and particularly at
Thanksgiving, Christmas - and New
Tear's, experienced a noticeable falling
off in Wednesday, when only 13 licenses
were Issued.
But at the Multnomah county court
house the activities of the two days

about the issuance of 43 marriage li
censes for weddings to occur mostly to
day. The record for Wednesday was 23
licenses and there were 20 unreported

Burglars Escape
With $40,000 From
'Thiefproof Safe
New York, Nov. 251 (I. N. S.) Jo
seph Tubitx, wholesale Brooklyn jeweler,
didn't celebrate Thanksgiving. He was
oppressed not only by the fact that
burglars had ripped open his thiefproof
safe and made off with $40,000 worth of
diamonds, but also because the robbers
used electric current in 'the process for
which Tublta will have to pay. '
The yeggmen spent the night at Tu
bltz's place of business, using an elec
tric drill and acetylene gas torches to
demolish the hinges and locks of the
safe. .
For five years there was no news frm
"Little: Mother." but Sarah prayed and
hoped, i ',

Ellis Island that "Little Mother" and
Amelia and Ruth and Pearl had arrived
Iif America ! But she must send more
money; She sent it. at once.
Then she fixed up the cozy little apart
ment .she had for "Little Mother." New
chairs, rugs, tables and even a talking
machine with Lithuanian records that
mother could understand. She bought a
gorgeous turkey. She stocked the pan
try with mince meat, pumpkins, cran
berries, nuts and raisins. '
Then came a ' delay at Ellis island.
All day Saturday she waited. No news.
AH day Sunday. No news. Monday
her brother-in-law, Henry Horwitz, got
a telegram. "
"Sarah !" he cried. "Sarah, she'll be
here tomorrow."
"O, little mother!" said Sarah. "Lit
tle mother, 16 years have I waited j to
see your dear face again and now ",
She swayed and feu. She spoke no
more. . She was dead. Excitement bad
caused a blood clot on Sarah's brain.

N. Y. ATTACKS
BRITISH FLAG
Emblem Flying From Union Club
Is Object of Sympathizers Re-
; turning From Memorial; Stones
Break Windows; Pol(pe in Fight
New York, Nov. 25. (U. P.)
Sinn Fein sympathizers, leaving St.
Patricks Cathedral, where a . me
morial service was held this after
noon, attacked the Union club, on
the other side of Fifth avenue, where
a British flag was flying with the
American and French emblems. Sev
eral windows of the club were shat
teied by stones. A number of per
sons were injured in a battle with
police reserves.
The usual Thanksgiving crowds were
strolling along Fifth avenue when a
shout arose from a group which had
just left the cathedral. Members of this
group began gesticulating and pointing
toward the Union club, from which a
British flag was flying. Suddenly a
stone sailed through the air and crashed
through a big plate glass window on the
ground floor. The group shouted its
approval and more stones began to fly.
Soon every window on the. ground floor
was broken..
POLICEMAN HALT MOB
Other Sinn Fein sympathizers, coming
from the Cathedral, joined those in the
street until there were more than a hun
dred. As they began to surge across
the street toward the club building,
however, a squad of policemen dashed
in front of them and turned them back.
Meantime spectators began gathering
until more than 2000 were packed in the
avenue, completely blocking traffic. The
police were reinforced and drew a cor
don in front of the club. A group of
Sinn Fein sympathizers started a flank
movement around the corner of the ca
thedral. Policemen headed them off and
soon a battle royal was under way, in
volving about a hundred civilians and
half as many policemen. Fists flew and
clubs rose and fell. Several civilians
were knocked unconscious and were car
ried away by their friends.
Several staggered away by themselves,
holding hands to bloody heads.
CROWD THROWN BACK
The police were victorious and again
the crowd was thrown back beyond the
deadline. There the Sinn Fein sympa
thizers and onlookers were still massed
more than an hour after the trouble be
gan. Occasionally a . stone would be
flung and when one of these missiles
would find its mark the accompanying
crash r of broken glass would - be ac
claimed by a shout , of approval. The
police made no effort to disperse the
crowds at this time, contenting them
selves with keeping them back from the
club. .
None of the members of the club could
be seen. They 4kept well back from the
windows.
An official of the club explained that
the British and French flags were put
up in observance of the tercentenary of
the first Thanksgiving.
SMALL IS ALIVE
Spokane, Wash:, Nov. 25. (U. P.)
All doubts that the British empire
might be crumbling were set at rest
here last night, when John Doughty,
wanted in Toronto in connection
with the disappearance of $100,000
worth of bonds, and Detective Ser
geant Mitchell of the Toronto police
consented to interviews as they "took
in the town" between trains for the
East.
-It I live. Jack shall have a fair
trial. orated the detective, "and he will,
anyway, under British law. A British
judge has said that no man shall be
convicted in the newspapers before he
is brought to the bar of justice"
" and I guess that settles it"
smiled Jack Doughty.
They gave a fair . imitation of the
Damon and Pythias act and strolled
around town like a couple of school boys
out on a lark, accompanied by American
reporters. who pointed out the points of
Interest
Most of the points of Interest were
much inferior to similar points in Can
ada, the prisoner and his guard let it
be known.
Beyond saying that "a big part of the
story hasn't broken yet" neither of the
visitors would reveal further details.
Doughty Baid he thought Small might be
alive, but doubted it
The couple is due to arrive in Toronto
Monday morning. ' -

DOUGHTY DOUBTS
PORTLAND IS
CELEBRATING
THANKSGIVING
Needy Families Supplied With
Turkey and Trimmings? Many
Church People Join in Serv
ices; Newsies Given Feast.
King Joy reigns supreme in, Port
land today.
As probably never before it "tier
history Portland is truly celebrating
Thanksgiving day. "Suffering j and
poverty have almost been reduced to
an absolute Lii.ifmum.
Charitable organizations have not
made their usual appeal for aid. Here
and there a struggling widow with a
large family has been found, and her
Thanksgiving needs supplied,- but these
cases are not' so prevalent as in former
years.
The only place in the entire city from
which & general appeal for aid was re
ceived was from the i Pisgah Home.
"Mother" Hattie Lawrence has depended
upon public charity to give her aged
charges a Thanksgiving dinner.
Many a tired laborer, who shirked
from the 65 cents per pound asked for
turkeys a few days ago, yielded to the
temptation late last night' on his way
home, when butchers cut the price to SO
cents per pound. The sorrow of many a
Portland boy who told "the gang'1 yes
terday that they were only going to have
roast beef, .has thus been turned to joy.
CHURCH PEOPLE GIVE PRAISE
Not a few" journeyed to the union
Thanksgiving services this mornine in
all parts of the city and devoutly ren
dered thanks to God for the blessings
of the past 12 months. About 50 young
people gathered at the First Presbyterian
church at 7 o'clock this morning for a
sunrise prayer service. Roland C.
Davis, county president presided. Bap
tist youngi people from all parts of the
city met at the Third Baptist church at
the same hour and gave testimonials of
thanks for Providential care during the
year. . ,
Members of Temple Beth Israel and
the Church of Our Father met at the
latter church for their special service,
Th First Congregational and First
Methodist churches also joined at the
latter church for a praise service, A
union service of First, Westminster And
Fourth Presbyterian churches, was held
at the First church, the- sermon being
by Dr. H. L. Bowman.
JfEWSBOYS AT FEAST
All the Christian churches in the city
gathered at the East Side Christian
church and Kplscopals at the Pro
Cathedral. Union services were also
held in virtually every east side com
munity. The hearts of 400 newsboys were light
ened at noon today when they sat down
to a real turkey dinner at the Hotel
Multnomah, as the personal guests of
Eric V. Hauser, proprietor. Everything
a hungry newsboy's stomach could
crave was on the table, and the word
was passed around to "eat, until you're
run." -One
of the sights of this feed came
before the noon hour, when the "boss"
newsies gathered the younger boys
"around the corner from the hotel" and
inspected everyone to see if his hair
was combed, shoes cleaned and face
washed. Many orders were also given

THOUSAND CAUGHT
IN CHICAGO RAIDS
Chicago, Nov. 25. (U. P.)
Thanksgiving day was merely No
vember 25 for a large part of Chi
cago's underworld. ,
With Charles Fitzmorris, Chicago's
new chief of police, following closely
on the trail of the gamblers and gun
men, and Judge K. ; M; Landis after
the bootleggers, the outlook wasn't
bright for the city's criminals.
More than 1000 met, have been taken
within the last five days In the police
drive against gamblers and other crim
inals. Squads swept through the bad
lands of the west side, the "black bejt"
of the south side and into the rendez
vous of the Camorra in "Little Hell"
the Italian district last night and early
today, picking up all gamblers and
suspected criminals.
The dives were crowded, in most in
stances, due to the coming holiday, and
large hauls were made. Scores were ar
rested. As none of the courts were open
today, thos arrested faced a sojourn in
Jail until Friday. . ;
In federal court, where the bootleggers
were brought t to the j bar, preparations
were made to rush the work of clean

The fact that the contest will be played
