In view of the fact that much boast
ing has appeared in the press with
regard to the endurance of soldiers on
the march, 1t may be of especial In
terest to tell what Expressman Ma
thiesen of lvedalen. who is sixty
five years OLD has managed to accom-
plish as a pet jstrian. He started on
foot from Lardalsoren, Sogn, across
the mountains, his destination being
Christiania. At several places he had
the best of chances to travel by rail
or steamer. But he stuck faithfully to
the wagon road, and after an eight-day
walk he arrived In Christiania without
any mishap. He averaged about thirty
English miles a day, carrying load
of about twenty-four pounds. This was
certainly well done for a man of
sixty-five.
When a freight train from Drammen
arrived at Sande station the second
conductor, Mr.. Engerud, was missing.
Some men were sent back to look for
him. He was soon found. But he was
in a strange plight. walking about aim

give an account of what had happened
to him. He was taken to Drammen.
where competent physicians explained
that some kind Of concussion Of the
brain had deprived him of his mem
ory. Only some slight bruises were
visible on his body. He had no doubt
fallen off the train, but no one knows
exactly how 1t happened.

US. IGNORES ALLIES
NOTES ON BLOCKADE
Only Order in Council May Be
Considered, Says New Pro-
test, Being Drafted:

The trst rough draft of the protest
of the United states against the Brit
ish blockade of Germany reached the
President today.
1t specifically states the allies action
is a matter OF fact rather than a mat
ter OF law. And, because OF that, the
correspondence which has passed be-
tween the United States and England
and France is ignored.
It Is stated in the draft that no mat
ter what assurances are conveyed to
the United States by the allies in con-
nection with the limitation of the zone
of activity, this Government must rely
entirely on the order in council. which
states very frankly that it Is the in
tention of the allies to interfere with
all commerce to or from Germany, no
matter how that commerce Is carried on.
1t is unlikely that the protest will be
sent to either England or France for
several days. Officials at the White
House and the state Department say
there is no apparent need of haste.
The first protest Is to be general
one against the entire suggestion. ii

should hope to create a general SIT.
uation which would interfere with all
commerce to and from the German
coast cities, unless such blockade is
established within territorial waters IT
will not be considered effective by the
United States.
And the United States Will suggest
that In the last analysis the question
really at issue is the right OF American
citizens TO trade with whom they please,
so long as they are not dealing In con-
traband.
1t was officially denied at the White
House today that President Wilson Is
considering a special session of Con-
gress to authorize an embargo. OFFICIALS
said the President had decided such an
act would be construed as a violation
of neutrality.

WANTS WOMEN ORGANIZED

LONDON, March ia world con
quest by imperial Germany and a Ger.
manization of men would deal a heavy
blow at civilization, Mrs, Emmeline
Pankhurst, English militant suffragettt
leader, declared in an interview with
the United Press today.
Mrs. Pankhurst was discussing with
me the appeal of President Runciemar
Of the Board Of Trade, for organization
OF English women to aid in the war
The miiitants, she said, welcomed the
chance to show that, women may be
made an important asset.
. But what is the position of the Ger
man women in the war?' l asked.
How They Treat Women.
1T would be a terrible disaster If the
Germans conquered the world" was her
decisive response. The Germans,
must admit, take good care of their
women. But they regard them as-l
don't like to use the word--as breeders
They consider them solely as a means
of maintaining the race.
/ "On the other hand, conquest OF
Germany by the allies will mean not
ionly the liberation of civilization, but
the liberation of German men and
women from German ideas"
, l was about to ask another question
when Mrs. Pankhurst interrupted.
! And what about the violation OF
women by the Germans?' she asked.
. l suggested that probably there were
bad men in every army.
Would Cut Off Alcohol.
But there are the most bad men ir
the army which consumes the most al
.cohol," she replied. Il don't believe
the British soldiers would behave like
the Germans under similar circum
stances. But when the tables are
turned and the allies begin to advance
into Germany the supply of alcoho
should be cut off"
There is no necessity, nor will there
be any. for Anglish women actually tc
stake up arms, Mrs. Pankhurst said
with a smile, but it is the duty o.
English women to perform the norma
work of the nation while the men are
at the front, If they are needed.

TRIP OF THE BOY
SCOUTS TO PORTLAND
lRp Lewis BaileYl

On Tuesday morning at 9.35 10 men,
hers of the Hood River Boy Scouts,
started on the train for Cascade Locks,
the starting point of the journey to
Portland and the rose festival.
When the Locks we're reached every
Scout started at brisk pace for Bon
neville. about seven miles distant. The
route followed was the uncompleted
section of the Columbia highway. Ar
irving about noon we ate our lunch and
then viewed the hatchery, where we
saw fish that were just Matching, up to
ones that were about Is inches long.
Leaving Bonneville about p. m.,
and after viewing one of the concrete
bridges near the hatchery, we started
on the tramp through to Rooster Rock.
The highway is in the rough state at
Bonneville, but cars could come up that
far if it wasn't for the uncomp eted
bridges. These bridges are certainly
wonderful. They are built of re-en-
forced concrete.
The next place of interest is Horse.
tail Falls, which is very beautiful
place. Next comes Oneonta Gorge.
This we did not enter because our time
was limited. A few miles from One
onta is Multnomah Falls, the most
beautiful falls along the highway. The
Scouts all went behind the upper falls
and got thoroughly drenched with the
spray. Another beautiful spotsis Shep-
herds Dell near Bridal Veil. The roao
where it comes down around to the
Dell is cut out of solid rock. Bridal
Veil Falls and all its grandeur has beer
ruined by the lumber mill at Brida
Veil. The highway then runs up oVei
the hill above Rooster Rock to Chanti
cleer Inn, where grand view of the
Columbia valley can be had.s The lnT
is also very picturesque.
From Chanticeer the highway rum
directly towards Portland and does no
again touch the railroad. This portion
is completed.
The first camp was made near Chan
ticleer Inn, and after a sleepless night
all scouts were up at $3.50 a. M, read.
