peace parleys at an end.
When an agreement was reach

down.
Delegations Pledged.
London, Dec. 6 (By Associated
Press.) The agreement reached
by the British and Sinn Fein dele
gates today binds both sides to
recommend it to their parliaments.
It Is a formal, detailed and con
clusive document, and its terms
prevent the necessity for further
negotiations.
Should the Dall Bireann agree
to the document and a disagree
ment is not looked for, as It meets
satisfactorily the points raised by
the Sinn Fein it will be embodied
In a bill and submitted to the
British parliament' which is ex
pected to be called in special ses
sion to consider it. The consent

sont to Sir James Craig, the Ul
"ster premier an unfavorable de
cision from him will not prevent
the scheme from maturing. .
Provisional government will be
formed In southern Ireland while
the British parliament is consider
ing the agreement.
On the question of elleglance a
form of words was found which
satisfied both the government and
the Sinn Fein. The recognition
of Ireland as an Independent
state is said to be clear.
The principle at last adopted
by the government is said to have
been that of trusting Ireland fully
and giving her full power of de
cision without hampering her by
conditions.
"It also- understood that an
agreement satisfactory to the
Sinn Fein wag reached regarding
control of Irish ports by the nuvy.
' The agreement was signed for

Atlanta, Ga., Dec. 6. The old
paper-backed novel has passed. But
some of those plots which called
down condemnation from the pul
pit have a counterpart In fact.
Chief of Police Beavers received a
letter from Mrs. Ethel Burham, of
Cheyenne, Wyo., in which was told
the story of a father's desertion of
a' wife and one child and the ab
duction of another. Mrs. Burham
is the stolen child, and the letter
states that not until her father's
death-bed confession as to the
whereabouts of her mother did she
know her mother might be living.
Her father's name was Miles Car
lisle of Atlanta, and twenty-five
years ago he left here.. Her moth
er's maiden name was Mollie Mar
tin. The police chief has request
ed anyone having any information
of the family to communicate with
him at once,
Efforts to Find

Mexiea City, Deo. fl. Efforts to
bring ta punishment those who as
sassinated President Francisco I.
Madero and Vice President Jose
Maria Pino Baurei, la 1(13, and
President Verustlano Carrania, in
1920, are being continued in a
rather desultory way. It Is not
believed that any of the men ac
cused will suffer execution, even
though convicted. The prevailing
opinion is that prosecution will'
stop when clamor for vengeance
ends.
At present there is a resolute
group which is determined to press
the proceedings against the ac
cused men. Some suspected men
have fled from Mexico. Some have
committed suicide, or have been
shot, when trying to escape after
having been arrested.

College Girl Will
Help Society Out
Chicago, Dec. 6. Through; the
influence of the college girl a
change for the better will be
brought about In the character of
society, in the opinion of Presi
dent Henry Noble MacCracken, of
Vassar, who, has been addressing
alumnae meetings- in Chicago. The
college girl, according to Dr. Mac
Cracken, will not be content with
perpetual frivolity.
" Too much frivolity bores the
college girl," said Dr. MacCrack
en. "She will not tolerate the!
unwholesome' things in society life. '
And because she has been trained;
to be a leader she will do away
with them."
Dr. MacCracken said the college'
girl will substitute pleasure and;
Culture for frivolity and speed.
"If girls are to be happy," he
declared, "they must have some
thing more to think about than
style."
John H. Rudd, secretary of the
county Y. M. C. A., returned last
night after spending a' few days
in Portland on business.
