ANNUAL ENCAMPMENT
Of
the 0. A. ft. and W. Ft. C. at
Newport, Oregon.
IWItor ltvlowi I will make a full
report from the lliuo wo left Port
Ud mmI 1 hone you will not think
It Is too Iodic. Leaving tho Hoso City
at th usual hour, wo arrived at
CorvtillU at 11: SO. Changing ears
liar fur YmiiuIum, aftvr a wall of two
hour wo left tho College Oily at
H30 p. m. Aa wo were leaving
Portland there was porno excitement
lUttonK thoo most directly Interested
dim. Ketup puieliaued a ticket, but or.
lmuliuf thu KMte she was not able
to flud It. mid Uii'oukIi tho asslstauco
of an old eomradu she procured au
othur, hut before roauhliiK t'orvallls
slio found It put away so carefully
In hor waist.
At Corvallls wo were entertained
In a most hospitable maiiuer at the
homo of Mrs. Kemp's brotlior-lu-liiw,
which wo both appreciated vorymuch.
Tho train was Ioiik ami heavily
loadod and took two canities to take
It to tho summit. ThoMcMlnuvUto
drum corps enlivened the trip with
martial music, going from ono car tc
another ibroiifihout tho train. At
Philomath girls dressed In white dis
tributed flowers to all tho passengers
from near tho summit the track fol
lows a little stream or creek that
winds In and out nearly all tho way
to tho bay. At Vauulna wo look pas
sago on a boat and scow for Newport
and wcro an hour making the trip,
as It was slow work towing the scow
rrlvlnir nt Newport,' words of wel
come rooted us on every hand, tho
mulling faces of comrades Downs and
Miller of our own post being tho first
to greet us. Wo wore escorted by
each othor to tho Abbey hotel and
nsslgnod a room overlooking tho bay
and wo removed tho dust of travel
from our clasile foaturces, refreshed
the Inner woman with a flno supper,
put on our togs and went to tno
reception, which was hold In tho op
ora hoiiso from 8 to 10 o'clock. A
short program of music nnd songs
followed by a march to tho stage,
to Bhako hands with tho high officers
was followed oy a frco lunchof cakes
und lomonado, Then wo were rondy
for our room nnd bod. Owing to tho
strangeness of the place and strnngo
companion, sleep did not como to tho
Just or the unjust as It might un-
dor different conditions.

Thu oveulni; was devoted to a reg
ular corps m-Jotlng work dune by tho
Abo Lincoln corps and It was nearly

loth new unit old department pros!
dents and others for tho good work.
On leaving tho hall a rain was com

plenty of waMr and novor Imvo to

HOW TO KILL YOUR TOWN.
Homo of our people nlroady know
how to kill St. Johns, nnd seom to
bo working pretty hard to accomplish
It, 1 u t lest they may not succeed
wo pi hit below a few simple rules
which wo clippod from an exchange

goods.
Denounce your merchants bocnuso
they mnko a profit on their goods.
Make your own town out a very
bad placo, ami stab It ovory chance

SWIFT PEOPLE DOING THINGS.
If there has ever boon any doubt
as to tho good fiith of tho Swift poo

penlntula, that doubt must have been
swept away by tho activity of tho
past few weeks.

Judge Greene has been suffering

LADIES PLAY BASE BALL
Something Different Anyhow at the
Ball Grounds Saturday
The great Indies' Base Ball club
of Chicago made its initial appear
ance on the local grounds Saturday.
The came was sunposcd to be call
ed at 3 p. m., but when that hour
finally arrived it found onlyn good
ly crowd of enthusiasts and not a
bloomer mrl in stent. Alter an
hour or so of further waiting the
bunch finally hove in sight. The
company was composed of three
men to play the most important po
sitions and seven of what was sup
posed to be females. The girls ap
parently had seen other days, and
many, many of them. They were
attired in short skirts of a reddish
hue, and they stepped around os
Krnccftillv as a lot of kangaroos,
The Wabash club enjoyed the
d st nction of bcimr the opposing
team, but wore their eyesight out
watching for the bewitching creat
tires to make their appearance. In
the preliminary practice only one
girl participated, but she was a
dandy, and was ns nearly perfect in
the art of ball playing ai the fcinl
nine cender ever becomes.
After the game started it was cv
ident the three male players were
above the average. 1 he Wabasli
team could do nothing. They were
completely charmed, bewitched or
mesmerized. Crosby, the boy won
dcr, who was in the box for the
Wabash team, was the worst stnek
en one of the lot. His knees knock
cd toirctlicr and his lips trembled
whenever he delivered the ball for
fear it would strike otic of the fair
ones and break a slut. As a result
eighteen of the graceful ones were
passed freely to first.
The Cliicatro nconlc presented
titiitc an iinposimr (?) appearance
when they took their places in the
field. The mule battery looked ns
f they micht have seen belter days,
The old girl on first looked ns if she
hnd faced the storms of many ham
hastcru winters, and may have had
n iK-rsoiial acquaintance with the
originator of uuse ball, l lie sec
ond bascgirl was Tint player of the
team, ami while she Is not so young
ns she once was, is good for sevcru
years more oi base ball life. Third
base was covered by n willing but
rather erratic d.imsel who seemed
to constantly amuse the ire of the
hatchet-fneed pitcher, bliort stop
was presided over by one of those
hateful men, but he was there wltn
the goods. Right field was grncei
with a female who was more noted
for her running ability thnii lor her
ball playing. A huntv little tiling
that looked like n long limbed grass
hopper ran after the balls that were
knocked to center field. A massive
creature of the elephantine In Taft
style of figure posed in left field for
the admiring throng.
The gnnic was great nnd wns a
success so fur as attendance was
concerned. As no self respecting
club would win from the Indies the
Wnbasli boys gallantly gave the
game away by a score of 8 to 4.
A I'HW 8IDKMOHT8.
No ice cream was permitted be
tweeu innings,
Good thing there is no age limit
in ball playing.
The sun apparently had no effect
upon their ivory complexions,
The modest ones in the audience
were shocked when the calves got
out.
In a beauty show the competition
for first prize would be something
fierce.
Kven Rankin, the umpire, hod a
case of stage fright In several In
stances mid became rather erratic in
his rulings.
Lester ISritik coached the ladies
from the grand stand, and his gal
lant attempts were sweetly acknowl
edged by the fair ones.
The lassies served the elderly
gentlemen who waited an hour or so
outside the hotel for them to make
their appearance in their uniforms
n rather scurvy trick by slipping
out the back way.
Our Charges
As is customary, we will charge
for card of thunks. 50c: for resolu
tions of respect, $1.00; for notices
of church or lodge entertainments,
suppers, sociables, etc, where there

for these events, we will break the
rule and insert them free. We
make this announcement so that
our good friends may uuderstaud
our rule in this respect.

WHITWOOD COURT
Richard Shcpard, Sr., is contem
plating the erection of a modern res
idence here in the very near future.
Knight & Glover arc making ar
rangements to erect a building near
the ferry slip which they will use
for saloon purposes.
Richard Shcpard hns begun the
erection of a handsome five room
residence, which will be a welcome
addition to Whitwood.
A free ferry betweeu Whitwood
and St. Johns would help some.
Better service nnd more of it would
help both sides of the river.
The cool, refreshing water sup
ply of Whitwood is worth coming
many miles to sample. No ice is
needed to keep our water cool.
lid h. Stockton, the Telegram
booster and pioneer home builder at
Whitwood, has been making n nice
thing out of selling lots here as a
fide issue.
Our young ladies have not as yet
adopted the dircctoirc gown, but as
the craze has struck San Francisco
we fear it will not be long in mak'
ing its way up the coast to Whit
wood.
The West Side Gravel company
has n large bed of the finest gravel
in the country, und they arc now
prepared to furnish this product in
almost any quantity. Their pit is
located on the heights.
The store building and residence
of Mr. Warner arc getting nicely
under way. Mr. Warner expects
to conduct a first class, tiptodate
general store, and will try and sup
ply the wants of the public in a sat
isfactory manner.
The turpentine plant !s placing a
substantial dock in front of the)
large works here. This togcthc
witli otiicr extensive improvements
they arc making will enable this cu
tcrprislug company to greatly in
crease their output.
Many visitors traversed the line
of the new trolley biinday, and n
number of lots were sold by the
West St. Johns Laud company at
Whitwood. The lady visitors cs
pecially were more than delighted
with the magnificent view nllordcti
ft 0111 this point.
J. II. Kissel and family arc now
nicely domiciled in their snug and
picturesque bungalow, which is
supplied with all modem couveii
icuces. Mr. Kissel is a Portlam
business man und he certainly en
joys the peaceful and restful repose
of his suburban home.
Many sales of lots are reportei
daily since so much activity is in
the air. One lot was bought lust
week for 335 ond five hours later
was resold for $500. Values are
uolnu UP by leaps and bounds, and
the laud company has increased the
price ou their holdings.
L. M. Mills, the heaviest laud
owner in Whitwood, is hnviug a
couple of acres cleared off ready to
plant in fruit. Mr. Mills is now a
resident of Michigan, but it is his
intention to remove his family here
nnd probably erect one of the finest
residences in this vlqiuity.
The steamer Columbia has sigui
fied a willingness to make daily
stops at this point provided a suita
ble float is erected for convenience
in embarking and disembarking,
This will be quite n boon for our
people wh n they dt sire to take n
trip to Portland by water.
The harbor line fronting the laud
of the Columbia Steel plant was cs
tablished this week preparatory to
erecting large docks for this com
pany. We understand work will
begin at once op the immense st rue
ture they contemplate erecting ad
jacent to Whitwood. This will
mean much for our village.
The progress being made on the
new trolley line is very gratifying
to our inhabitants. For many
moons the trials of this company in
securing franchises and rights ot
way have been followed with anx
ious eyes. And now that all diffi
cullies have been surmounted and
work is under way we certainly
have a right to enthuse. The ad
vent of this line- is of inestimable
value to this side of the river. The
chief engineer volunteers the infor
mation that when the trolley is
completed the trip to 1 bird street,
Portland, can readily be made in
twelve minutes. The line to Linn
tou is expected to be finished with
in ninety days.
Speaking of sceuery, can any
thing be more beautiful, sublime
and inspiring than the view from
Whitwood Court on a cloudless
day ? The pearly white summits of
old Hood and Helens where the sun
glistens on their snowy forms, the
majestic Columbia river stretching
out like some monster snake as it
glides by Vancouver, the numerous
sloughs, lakes, islands and uenin
sulas, the packiug house sites, the
Weyerhaeuser tract, the immense
bridges crossing the two rivers, the
cities of St. Johns, Vancouver, East
Portland and smaller towns tu tbe
distance, and then the beautiful
Willamette at our very feet with its
cargo of steam and sailiug vessels,
launches aud row boats completes a
picture that is not readily forgotten.
