Moffit in the first ward; Manning

MAKE WAR ON
The MIXING
OF The RACES

Vancouver Wash, Oct. go
Aroused by the unusually large num-
ber of mixed marriages which have
taken place here recently, the clergy
men of Vancouver here launched a
war against mesalliances, determined
to stop the practice Fourteen inter-
racial marriages have taken place
here recently. In each a white wo-
man became the bride of a japanese,
Chinese or negro.
Couples from Idaho, California,
Oregon and Washington, who were
unable to secure licenses in other
places, have come to Vancouver and
have been married. At the last ses-
sion Of the legislature an effort to
enact a law prohibiting marriages
between whites and negroes or Asia
tics failed.

Reports Are Confirmed.

Shanghai, Oct. 30-Conflrmatlon
of reports that the imperial troops
had recaptured Hankow from reb-
els preceded the reports of burning
of the city. Strategists here think
the rebels abandoned the city after
heavy losses, finding 1t difficult to
hold.
The wireless dispatches from bat
tleships say that after the imperial
lists entered the city they slaughtered
thousands of unarmed non-combat-
ants. 1t is feared some of the Eu-
ropean residents may have suffered
in the sacklng Of the city.
More than 500 rebels were killed
and 1900 wounded in Fridays fight.
Rev. A. II. Kepler, an American, was
among those wounded during the bat
tie and Is in a critical condition. He
was struck in the neck by bullet
while watching the fight from a roof
There was no intention apparently
to assault the missionary, whose
wound was received from a stray
bullet.

Charleston, S. c., Oct. 3O.-Joseph
Pulitzer, proprietor of the New York
World and the ST. Louis Post-Dis-
patch, died at 1:4O o'clock Sunday
aboard his yacht, the Liberty in
Charleston harbor.
The immediate cause of Mr.. Pu-
litzers death was heart failure. He
had been in i'll health for several
days, but until a few hours before
the end none of those around him
suspected the gravity of his condl-
tion. The change for the worse came
about 2 o'clock this morning, when
he suffered an attack of severe pain,
BY daylight he appeared to be bet
ter and fell asleep after 10:30. He
awoke at 1 o'clock and complained
of pain in his heart. Soon he fell
into faint and expired at 1;40
o'clock.

Eugene High School defeated Sa-
lem High at Eugene last Saturday by
80 score. The game was played
before a large crowd of enthusiastic
rooters. The day was ideal for the
gridiron game and both teams and
spectators were on edge. The cheer

team in crucial moments. Salem
took 175 enthusiasts on her eXcur-
sion train and they were enthusiasts,

Some previous disagreement in re-
gard to officials and the customary
tactics of the Eugene management
sent the teams onto the field with at
least one official selected at the last
moment. While these incidents may
have no effect upon the results Of the
contests, their continued occurrence
is unpleasant and apt to cause some
unpleasantness.
Both teams appeared on the field
at 2:3O and the game, was called
