Huntley, of Co. I, Hucond Oregon Volunteer Infantry, ar rived home from Manila Wednesday morning on two month' nick leave. The nterprlse reporter found him a rather well-looking alck man, but soon learned at 30 of the pound avolrdupola which carries wa gained since he left the lospltal 40 da a ago, he weighing then nit I'JS ound. The flmt question naturally wa "How are all the Oregon City hove?" I left every Oregon City boy in good health, with the exception of one or two who had some trivial ailments, not aevere enough to keep them from in forming daily duty, and all of them In good spirits," "To what do you attribute the fact that while all of the other companiea of the regiment have hail death from disease, company I ha not lont a man?" waa asked. "I attribute It to the fact that company contained physically and morally, a better lot of men than any other com puny in the regiment. The company as whole swallowed the bitter pills that fall to th lot of every soldier (and there were not a few of them) with a grin and loke, instead of a scowl and a curse They had the nigral courage to abstain from the excess, so common to soldiers, nd when disease came (and we hd our hare) were able to flfht it with unlm ttalred etreimlh. Such pjvial lellowl as Campbell, N orris, Logua.Cornfleld Hard ing, and Miller, of Oregon City ; Mi. Bride, West brook and Turner, of Albany, to gether wiih others I do not now recall, iclp wondei fully to keep tlieiu from thinking ol their troubles. Then there Moflalt, Finley, Polndexter, Smith, Htellmtclier and Oambar, who are always looking out for the unlucky one who are laid up In quarters" 'What is your opinion Mr. Huntley about sickness? Will there he more or less than In the past?" "Lras. by all means. We have better quartera, better food and more ex perl ence in cooking and handing It to that savings' can now be made and articles of food outside the regular diet can be purchased. The hospital are now in good condition with plenty of nurses, medicines and food for invalids. Then too, the very beet end healthiest season of the year is at band which will give those who are run down a chance to get on their feet again." The reporter then reminded the Lieu- tenant of the nasty letters that had been written rrgarding the handling of the emergency funds" placed in the hands of the different captain for the use of the men and asked what basla there was (or such claima. No basia whatever for the charge that any funds were gambled away or misappropriated ; it would result in the court-martial and dishonorable dis charge of any ofllcer so doing, and you may e sure that it would be easily snd quickly discovered, for every captain baa to make an Itemised account ol the expenditures of this fund to the colonel of the regiment. Rut aside from that, I know personally every captain in the Oregon regiment and their honor Iz such matters is above question. I also know that the.ro is no gambling among the ofllcers of the regiment. At to the method ol disbursing the $100 fund, Idess (lifter. Koine of the men (the ones who wrote the letters referred, to) I fancy think tha amount should have been at once divided among me u memoers, giving each one the vat sum of $1 .25 for emervencie. How far such an amount would go in an emergency and whether It would be ready to go when wanted, you can ludne for yourself." "Our captain's Idea was that this money could be used most effectively In caring for the sick j that Is, in buy Inn necessary food and nourishment that the hospital would not supply. His idea is health lirst. What if a mnn did lack something In clothing or spending money; If the fund could be used to buy things for sick man. Captain Pickena haa said to me many time 'Huntley I want to take every man of company I back to Oregon with me and I'm iroinir. to do it.' lie 11 do It too, I fltmly believe" "Yes, you may restsssured that every dollar of money placed in hit hands will be properly accounted for.'

You could not And two men among our 80 who think that the captain hat not handled thit fund In tha way he thought best for the company. As I said before, Ideas at to the best way to spend money differ. They may have thought they could have done Utter with It, but I do not believe they ever thought he misappropriated it." "What do you think of the I'liiup- pines7" wst asked. "Oh I that's another stcry." "Will the Insurgents offer resistance to the United States?" 'Not when they know we are in ear nest and propose to control the islands." An envelope marked "To be opened on shipboard" was handed Lleutenet Hnntley, when he said good bye to the boy, which proved to be a follows: 'Ciiartel de Kspana" Manila, Velio.
