KANSAS CITT. March 28-Frank Ooteh of Iowa, champion of the world, laat night retained hla title by defeating Raoul De Rouen of France In straight falls. The . winning fall was won with Ootch lamous toe held. The Frenchman allowed his. ahouldcra to be put to the mat almost with, out an effort. De Rouen was repeatedly cheered for hla gameneaa. The champion waa never In serious trouble, and It Boon became evident that Ms ultimate victory waa only matter of time. Ootch really won the bout In the first fa'l, when he so weakened hla op ponent with the to held that Da Rouen did not care to repeat the experience In the second fall. The time of tha falls waa 34:45 and 13 minutes flat, respectively. Bl Crowd 9ea Match. One of the biggest crowds that ever wit nessed such an event In this country waa present. W. D. Scovllle, manager of the Missouri Athletic club, which put up the $8,000 purse for the match, estimated the attendance at over lO.ono. Of this number 2,600 were from out-of-town points, Includ ing Chicago, St. Louis and Denver. The winner's end of the purse waa 16,000. Both contestants' were In excellent condition. Ootc h, who weighs 211 pounds, was a 10 to S favorite, though De Rouen was forty nine pounds heavier. As they entered the arena, the French man appeared nervous. The gong sounded at 8:30. Dc Rouen was the aggressor, while Ootch seemed to take It easy. They went tp the mat at 9:37. Gotch throwing De Rotten with a leg hold. De 'Rouen seemed to have all he could do to defend himself. Gotch tried for the toe hold. De Rouen several times tried to strike Ootch In the face with his elbow. In the struggle both men got to their feet. Ootch In a few minutes again secured a leg hold on his opponent and brought htm to the mat. Ootch secured a toe hold on the French man, whose face showed extreme agony. He struck Gotch fwbty with his elbow, but soon lay still with his chest heaving. Then he slowly rolled over, but finally broke the hold by bridging and rolling clear over. French ma a oa the Defensive. Ootch then secured a bar lock and only a supreme effort saved the Frenchman, who made no effort to take the offensive. Referee Dave Porteous brought the men to the center of the ling. After a few minutes' sparring, Ootch secured a ham- mcrlock. De Rouen bowed again ejid broke It. The Frenchman regained his feet and Ootch pushed him backward over the ropes. Gotch for the third time threw De Rouen with a leg hold and In a moment secured a full Nelson and put his shoulders to the mat In 34:45. When the men ra-entered Ihe ring for the second time the Frenchman advanced as at first, but with extreme caution. Alter eight minutes' sparring, Ootch re peated hla former feat of catching De Rouen's leg. and they went to the mat, Gotch uppermost. Twice the men rolled through the ropes and were brought back. Finally Gotch felt the toe of his opponent cautiously, smiled, gave It a quick twist and De iRouen's face became distorted with pain. A moment later Ootch waa pro claimed the victor. There were two preliminaries of two falls each. Tommy Mowatt of Chicago and "Dago Kid" of Kansas City each won a fall, tha last one going to Mowatt.

"Of course we are going to win the pen nant," said Captain Buck Franck at the Smoke House Friday morning, anticipating any question which might be asked. You never knew Omaha to have a team which was not up In the running all the ,-tlnio, especially since Pa Rourke has been at the helm, and this year will be no exception. "We realise that we will have to do some hustling to fill the placea made vacant by Autre-. Austin and Ragan, but Pa has what looks like a fine bunch of material lined up. While 1 have seen but a few of the new men I know from their record and from what the other players and Rourke tell me that we have some crack-a- "Papa Bin la noi going in chances, however, and last night wired a hot proposition for two players whom I recommended In California, and If we can get these I know we will have a great team rluht at the start. These are a pitcher and a first baseman. That will give us a fine line of material from which to choose a temn." , , Captiiln Franck came to Omaha ftvm Oak land, via Los Angeles, where he picked- up Kid IeBrand and brought him with him. He said also that Rourke had a couple of trades In sight which would tend materially to strengthen the Omaha team If they were carried out. The captain says he haB not touched a base ball since the last game he played with the Omaha team at Wichita last fall and is in fine condition. He made the mis take of playing winter ball a year ago and was not In very good shape when he re ported last spring and had hard work get ting in condition at all.

After five years of "trial marriage" a young San Francisco couple have decided that the experiment la a failure' Their con tract having expired, the two people feel themselves free to choose other mates and try again. Presumably, each of them will keep on trying until a satisfactory mate la found or until they grow weary of the sport and blighting old age cuts short their fancy's dalliance. This world would be a fine place to live In If all people were free to repudiate a contract at their pleasure. Marriage would cease to be a matter of any moment, and the bringing of children into the world would belong among the trivial Incidents of life. In business, when a man tired of his contract or found that what he had contracted to do was no longer1 pleasing to his whim, he would simply throw his contract Into the waste basket and tell the other fellow to go to the deuce. It would work that way for a while; then, after a little while, there would be ne business and no society; simply choas and anarch. Bald the man-party to this easily broken contract: "We are going to separate because we find our liberty has been too greatly re stricted. I have been taking my wife everywhere I go, and I don't propose to have to do it any more. She feels the same way about her enforced deference to my wishes In many respects. We have given our contract a fair trial and have decided to quit." They may have given their contract n fair trial, Indeed; but if they are under the Impression they gave marriage a fair trial they are wrong. Theirs was never a marriage. The Saxon terms fit to cltsslfy It are not pretty on the printed page. Marriage must begin In love and trust and the desire for inseparability. These things are permanent. The cere mony only announces their existence to society and fixes upon those who would enjoy them the responsibilities they en gender. One can enjoy nothing without assuming the responsibility It entails. Peo ple who balk at this ceremony, which in forms the world of their love and trust In each 'other, do not possess enough of theso to make a marriage. The "trial marriage" is an abomination, because It defies every law upon which society, business as such, and the recog nition of human rights are founded. It la evil, because It questions and passes Judgment upon the eternal nature of love, it Is abhorrent, because It sets up the standard of selfishness In the human breast and would Insist upon anarchy no law but that of self In the constitution of mankind.
