FEHGVSOX RECEIVES ORDERS TO THAT EFFECT Despite Fact That Local Company Is Not Recruited np to Full Strength. Boys Will Go to American Lake Want Large Attendance as Possible. Co. L has been ordered to partici pate in the big encampment at Ameri can Lake, early next month. Owing to the fact that the company has not been recruited up to full strength It v.as not believed that it would be pos sible for the members of the company to make the trip as a company. This morning, however, Captain Ferguson received orders directing him to take his entire company to the encamp ment. If he cannot muster more than a dozen men it will be necessary for him to take them and go. Captain Ferguson and the other of ficers of the company are therefore redoubling their efforts to secure as many members as possible to make the trip. They will leave Pendleton on train No. 5. the morning of August 8. - The following instructions to the Adjutant General for the state of Ore gon from Major General Henry C. Cabell, is responsible for the orders received this morning by Captain Fer guson: Headquarters Department of the Co lumbia, Vancouver Barracks. Wash. July 22, 1910. The Adjutant General, State of Oregon, Portland, Oregon. Sir: I desire to call your attention to the great importance of having as large an attendance as possible at the maneuver camp at American Lake next month. It is fully appreciated that members of the Xational Guard cannot always conveniently leave their civil vocations to perform their mili tary duties, but it Is so necessary to have a full attendance in order to de rive any considerable benefit from the camp that every effort should be made to secure the presence of as many men as possible. It is confi dently believed that if the members of the militia and their employers can be impressed with the Importance of this matter no difficulty will be ex Never come back when cleaned by the BERLIN DYE HOUSE Dry, wet, chemical and steam cleaners.

Congress this year has appropriat ed over a million and a quarter of dol lars for the maneuvers, and we should do all we can to render a full return for this liberality. As President Washington said, it is necessary to prepare for war in time of peace. Af ter hostilities have commenced it is ; too late. The conditions of modern ' warefare require such a high degree of discipline and such thorough train ing that much preparation is required before soldiers are ready to take the field against an enemy. The man euver camps are the most Important part of the years' training and no man should be absent If it is possible for him to attend. It is hoped 'therefore, that all mem bers of the Xational Guard will make every effort to be present and that their employers will see the necessity of granting vacations during the en campment to these young men whose patriotism has led them to join the Xational Guard in order to prepare themselves to defend the nation In the time of the nation's need. Very respectfully Signed, HEXRT C. CABELL, Major, General Staff, Chief of Staff. SFLTAX TESTS HIS MEDICINE. Tries It on Young Folks Before Taking. Paris. As to the talked of marriage of a daughter of the ex-sultan and Prince Alexander of Servia, there are still difficulties in the way. He could not be converted to the Koran, and there Is a great fear that were she to go from Stamboul the bride of a Giaouh, the common people might rise in rebellion against the union and progress committee. One of the reasons why they and their stepmothers were removed from the villa serving as the fallen sultan's prison is that he used to test his medi cine on them. If they showed symp toms of poison he had made up his mind to discard the pills, powders or draughts the chemist might have, on a doctor's prescription, sent to him. Hello!. Rome to Berlin. Rome.

He will be accom panied by Mrs. Taylor. All told some thing like a dozen men will be in at tendance from Oregon. russian scrire arrested for i.ettino secret oct St. Petersburg. The arrest of Bar on von I'ngern-Sternberg promises to develop into an affair, rivaling in dramatic Interest to famous Dreyfus affair. That a number of members of the Duma will be involved seems certain, and It may be that officials of the war department may be drawn int.) the net. Von Ungern-Sternberg Is a Rus sian subject, and Is correspondent of an Austrian newspaper. The formal accusation against him is that of communicating to Austria a report of a secret sitting of the duma dealing with the new distrlbu tinn of the Russian army. A printed copy of the report was found among the papers seized at his house. As he Is a Russian subject and an ex-officer, this charge is undoubtedly se rious. A notebook was also found containing entries of sma41 sums re ceived from various members of the Austro-Hungarlan embassy, where he was employed as a translator. One of the sums was 150 roubles ($75) received from Count Spannoc ehi. It is Inferred that an attempt will be made to trace the disclosure of the secret report to M. Mlliukoff. The witness repflied that her husband was personally well acquainted with Count f-'iiunnocchi and had occasion ally borrowed money from him and oilier members of the embassy staff. He considered the facts of having a secret report in his possession and his pecuniary transactions so little com promising that he. left the one on his table and Inscribed details of the Oth ers in his note book. Some Journals declare that he act ed as a secret service agent for Aus tria and that Count Spannoccni would have to leave his post. Baron von lingern-Stern-berg's friends wonder how a secret service agent could lack money. For me I have determined to lay up, as the best treasure and solace of a good old age, if God vouchsafe it to me, the honest liberty of free speech from my youth, when I shall think It available in so dear a concernment as the church's good.

ROY SAXTON IS DEAD AT HOT LAKE SUDDEN DEATH DVE TO POMKNCEIMIAMTI3 Young una Popular Reclamation En pinivr Mounioxl by Host of Frieiuls In This City and West End Country Had Huffllng Disuse. W. Roy Saxton, well known and popular member of the reclamation corps at Hermlston, and who has a host of friends in this city as well as in the west end. Is dead nt Hot Lake. He died there at 12:30 this morning and his death Is attributed to the ravages of the new disease, pollence phalitis, which is characterized by an enlargement of the spinal chord. When the news of the young engi neer's death reached the city this morning it produced a profound shock among those who knew him. Few if any ono in the city knew he was ill and in danger. He had gone to Hot Lake last Thursday and at that time, according to his friend, Maurice Scroggs of Hermiston, was complain ing of feeling unwell. He felt he was threatened with typhoid and went to tho sanitarium to recuperate. Night before last Scroggs was at the bedside of his friend at Hot Lake. At that time Saxton was dellrous but recog nized ,his friend. The case at that time was diagnosed as typhoid fever, but it is now understood that he was afflicted with poliencephalitis a dis ease now more or less prevalent In eastern Oregon and which has usual ly proven fatal. Several deaths have occurred In Umatilla county and an even greater number In Union coun ty. W. Roy Saxton was a native of Berlin, Green Lake county, Wiscon sin, and was born November 6, 1881. His parents, Mr. and Mrs. George B. Saxton now live In Madison, Wis., and were notified by wire this morn ing of their son's death. So was a brother who lives at Miles City Mont. Funeral arrangements are deferred, awaiting Instructions from the rela tives. The deceased first came to this sec tion when the reclamation service en tered the eastern Oregon field about eight years ago. At that time Saxton was an engineer under J. T. Whistler and worked with the crew which had offices in this city. Wlien the head quarters were moved to Hermlston he went with the force and was actively in the government service until his death. The deceased was a member of the Masonic lodge at Hermiston and of Pendleton lodge No. 288, B. P. O. E. Frank J. Qulnlan, exalted ruler of Pendleton lodge, is representing the Elks in making the funeral arrange ments and at his request the members of the Elks lodge at La Grande are qifering their services In caring for the body. A delegation consisting of Maurice Scroggs and J. W. Campbell of Hermlston and two young men from this city will go to La Grande this evening to take charge of the re mains. Of a genial and lovable disposition the deceased was popular among all who knew him and he had hosts of friends among the young people of the west end and of this city. He was a violinist of ability. He was a familiar figure in local social crcles. A Baffling Disease. The disease with which Saxton died is a battling one for the physicians. It is a form of spinal meningitis, but differs from ordinary meningitis and is much more severe. According to Dr. C. J. Smith the medical men of Massachusetts have studied polience phalitis thoroughly, up to this time have arrived at no satisfactory results. They can neither trace the origin of the disease in a positive manner nor are they able to combat it effectively. There Is a theory that the disease follows the flow of riv ers and may be due to conditions brought about by irrigation. Another theory is that it is spread by mos quitoes. Iowa Democrats Meet.

Princess Feodora, who was unmar ried, and was always delicate, suffer ed from rheumatism. Her life was spent largely in sanatoria and health resorts.
