FORT STEVENS, Aug. 3. A num
ber of the Roseburg boys last even
ing chartered a fishing smack at the
Hammond harbor, close to Fort
Stevens and took an excursion trip to
Astoria. Leaving the dock about 7
o'clock in the evening they arrived
at Astoria about 45 minutes later
and made a tour of the thriving lit
tle city. Those who were aboard
the boat were the following: Teddy
Jewett, Delwin Jewett, Cliff Lilly. H.
Rankin. Ray Lahey, Avery Uosei ,
Edgar Perrine, Fred Miller, Shannon
Bond, Cecil lilack, Clarence Tester,
John Ashworth George Wlllett, and
Bert Bates. Tne trip to Astoria was
beautiful, the moon was just rising,
and if tho river had been much
rougher It Is very probable, that oth
er things would have soon been ris
ing. After several hours stay in As
toria, the boys made their way to the
dock where the small boat was kept.
In the crowd, however, the faces of
John McClintock, Clarence Tester
and the writer could not be seen for
having a deathly fear that they would
soon lose the delicious dinner which
they had Just partaken of, thoy de
cided to charter an auto and the re
turn trip to the fort was made that
way. The other members of the
party who took the boat home stat
ed this morning that a thrilling ex
perience was encountered on the way
home when the gasoline engine of
the boat suddenly stopped, just as
gas engines will do once in awhlle.
The boat was piloted by two In
dians and they immediately set about
to remedy the engine trouble. It was
an hour, however before it could be
placed in running order and the boat
had drifted during that time some
distance toward the Columbia bar.
Several large waves struck ine boat
and rocked it considerably. The boys
arrived at the dock at ...immond at
a late hour and did not get to camp
until about 2:30 a. m., as a result
they are a sleepy bunch today.
Another crowd of the boys char
tered a car in the evening and made
a trip to Seaside, me-beautiful sum
mer resort, 'in the crowd the follow
ing Roseburgers were present: Leon
McClintock and Harrie Booth and the
other members of the sanitary troops
to make the trip were Jack Cowley,
George Letellier and Leslie Schwer
Ing. From their reports of the short
vacation it was very, enjoyable and
the boys were glad to break away
from the army routine for a time.
They also returned to camp at a late
hour and as a consequence are loung
ing about their beds today in at
tempts to get sleep.
It is thought that the members of
the sanitary troops to be transferred
to Fort Canby soon will be tho fol
lowing: John McClintock, Harrie
Booth, George Willett, Leon McClin
tock, Roy Ccdarstrom, Humphrey
Rankin and Bert Bates. The boys
are not looking forward to the trans
fer with pessimism and rather ex
pect to make an enjoyable vacation
affair of it. Fort Canby will probably
be the headquarters for Beveral com
panies of coast artillery and it will
be the duty of the boys transferred to
that point to look after their welfare
and sickness.
At this morning's sick call of the
fort, 68 men presented themselves
for treatment and the boys were kept
busy examining blistered feet and
eore muscles.
Clarence Tester this morning as
sisted Major Cheshire, the post hos
pital commander, in an operation
and it is probable that every boy in
the command will soon be given a
chance to witness operations and as
sist, thereby gaining much valuable
information.
From reports coming from all
companies, the sanitary troops are
messing better than any other or
ganization that recently arrived
here. Several of the coast artillery
coni panics are not getting the best
of food, but it Is thought that within
the next few weeks things will be sys
tematized so that everyone will be
getting equal rations.
The 4th company boys are having
a great time and are enjoying the
Bights of the fort immensely. Ray
Buell, their barber, is a busy boy
these days and is doing "some''
shaving.
James Goodman, of the hospital
corps, is cultivating a Charlie chap-

arrested yesterday afternoon by Mar

several "uppercuts" on the beautiful
face of his year-old bride haB a
frightful tale of woe to tell and he
makes no "bones ' of getting it out

afternoon for Eugene, but there was
still a strong . barrlcaue between

fracas.
Etting says his wife is so jealous
that "she sleeps with one eye open,"
and is continually nagging at him.

dog look liko an Egyptian mummy
and Is otherwise so "constructed"
that llfo Is a burden. In fact, one
would judge by his conversation that
he had "picked" something that

to ."cut out his giddy stuff" and
board the train. He calmly complied
with her request -and entered the

of the Southern Pacific Company,

Subsequent developments will de

The difficulties over which em

DYN.VMITU STOLEN.
PORTLAND. Ore., Aug. 4.-
Recently several cases of dyna
mite disappeared from a con
tracting company's wurehouse
in Oregon. Both foderal and
state officials ordered a Bearch,
which laBted many days and up
to the present time the dyna-
mile Is still missing.
These are perilous times, as
you know. A few cases of dy-
namlte in the hands of wrong
people could do untold damage.
It is deemed advisable and
the state council of defense re- 4
quests that all county courts,
contractors, construction com-
panles and anyone else using
powdor or dynamite shall have
a. depot for same-under day and
night armed guard.
A sufficient quantity for the
day's use can easily be remov-
ed to location of work under
way, but under no clrcum
stance should the depot bo left
without a trustworthy guard in
full charge.

Just as we expected, the boys at
Fort Stevens want literature. Now
here is a place for practical help to
the boys on the way to the front.
As thero seems to be no local organi
zation delegated or authorized to
take charge and supply this need,
Kev. J. B. Coan has offered to de
vote some time each week to this
task, provided the "folks at home"
come forward with the necessary
reading matter. The Y. M. C. A.
building for the benefit of the coast
artillery will soon be completod. The .
Y, M. C. A, expects to assist in sup
plying tho boys in cump with maga
zines as well as providing the read
ing room and rocreatlonal center,
but they look to the citizens for the
major put t of the supply. Had thero
been a local Y. M. C. A. organiza
tion It would quite likely have had
this work In charge, but the boys can
not wait for Koseburg's Y. M. C. A.
program to materialize. They want
to road some now. The postofOce
department has made special provis
ion for a one-cent rate on periodicals
destined for tho "expeditionary

old and current, technical, Bclentlflo
current discussion, fiction In fact
every sort und kind of readable mat
ter worthy of classification. We can
do nothing better for the boys than
to give them the opoprtunlty to keep
their minds employed In their ho urn
of leisure. Thoy will devour mora
than we can supply and will appre
ciate perhaps more than most of us
who know but little of the monotony
of camp llfo after the new wears off,
can ronllze. Some have already writ
ton to tholr homes for magazines.

Wo will got a better lino on this

Mnny homes have stacks of old flo-'
tlon. Tho boys want current read
ing along technical, scientific and up-to-lhe-hour
discussions. They will
read old fiction but not stale news
and discussions. Head your latest
periodicals us early as possible and
then give tho boys a chance at them
boforo the noxt issue Is out.
Lot us send them a good supply ev
ery weok. They will feel our neglect
much soonor than we, and when they
