WvlSHINGTON' pea INDUSTRY THRIVING Spokane, Wash., Oct. 19. (Special.) The growing importance of the pea industry is illustrated at Fairfield, Wash., where eastern seed concerns operating in the vicinity have already contracted for 25,000 acres of peas for next year. The yield this year has averaged 15 to 20 bushels, about half of a ntr mal yield. Even at the smaller fig uics.'mny growers say they can make a greater profit than in wheat rising. 1 sssifsie0Sts0iS0 New Arrivals S-T-A-R probably be of interest to some of your readers to hear from Battery B, Oregon Field Artillery. While at Clackamas we were all impatient to be on our way, so when the word finally came, we all wore a happy crowd. Our first stop was at Gazelle, Cal., where we stopped to water and filed our, stock, in fact while the horses were some trouble to us they also were a means for us to visit most of the principal cities on the way. We were treated fine by evory one, and at Los Angeles, Tucson, Hous ton and New Orleans, most of the boys hired cars and went for drives and to see the various places of interest. At El Paso the Red Cross ladies met us at the train and had a fine lunch ready for us. We were twelve days and nights on per. To cheer up your soldier friend, send him a copy of this paper. If a six.foot German, armed with two revolvers, a rifle and a bomb and with a knife between his teeth should attack Jesse Cover, Dunkard, he would I not raise a finger in defense.

An average of about 56,000 pieces of mail is now handled daily. Boxes of stuff from home aro coming in car loads and this great movement of tnail and goodies is constantly in creasing. ...... Eddie O'Connell and Walt Miller, midde weight wrestling champion, are the way and when we finally arrived .tched to wrestle in Spokane the lat . t ,na nn..t- nt fh.a mAtitll at Charlotte were as glad to be at the end of our journey, as we were to leave Oregon. The South, as a rule, is a very beau tiful country, with much more timber and hills than we expected. At the present tune there aro about 30,000 men at Camp Greene, but new companies are coming in evory day. Almost all of these troops are from the Northwest, and they are quite a contrast to the home people here, who as a rule, are not near as healthy or robust looking set of men. We are now drilling hard and ex pect before long to be in shape to do some good for Uncle Sam. The boys are not used to being con fined like they keep us; but do not mind tne discipline liKe we tnougnt. we would before joining. Charlotte is a very pretty place of 60,000 and they do not need Billy Sun day to lecture them, for they already have 68 white and 31 black churches, so you may be sure we are very well taken care of spiritually, and Uncle Sam is trying to mentaly and phys ically. We do not expect to spend the Win ter here, but have no idea whether it will be at some other camp or r ranee. Now with best regards to all, and hoping to be with you again some dny, we are proud to sign our names behind Battery B, 147tlj Field Artil lery. B. C. GARITY, - if ELTON HERYFORD, W. D.

MADAME BO-PEEP" STARS SEENA OWEN Seena Owen. Triangle star, appears in a production adapted from the story Madame Bo-Fcep of tne Knncncs, by O. Henry, at the Star Theatre Sat urday only. As the dainty heroine of the film play Miss Owen proves that she is a feminine Bill Hart. She appears first as a genuine heart breaking coquette and later us the proprietress of sheep ranch in the wild anl woolly west. She accomplishes the transi tion with perfect ease and scenn as much at home in a saddle n3 in a drawing room divan. As a fighter Miss Owen shows that she can noi'i her own with the best of them. In thrilling scene, in which sue is seized by the foreman of the much, she makes her escape by "strong n" methods from her assailant and gallops madly away on horseback. In this scene n chase ensues, ana to o.uuc her nursuers Miss Owen makes her mount swim across a lake. She goaded the animul into the shal low water and expected him to swim the rest of the way. As the deeper water was reaohed the steed sank into the mud until he was unable to extri cate himself and floundered helpless ly. No one but Miss Owen realized the predicament she was in, but sne , resolved not to let the accident spoil the scene and struck out to swim to the other side of the lake without the horse.
