H. D. Barrett Makes Startling Com parison in His Address at the Convention. "I would rather b the president of the National Spiritual Association than to sit In the chair of William of Germany or Theodore the First of the United States of America" was the climax reached by Harrison D. Barrett in a speech before the local Spiritualists in the Academy of Music yesterday afternoon. President Barrett delved into the his tory of spiritualism and brought forth aorae interesting facts. "The National Association has been at work for 13 years," he said, "and today we have 22 state associations' and 670 local institu tions, not all of which, however, are connected with the National association There are 42 campmeettng associations, and the camp at New Era in this state la the pioneer of the line." The ape&ker denounced the work of soothsayers, necromancers, and hypno tists and offered an eloquent appeal for a purely religious spiritualism. But by far the greater enthusiasm was reserved for the evening meeting. Harry Moore, the secretary , opened the meet ing, and was followed by President Bar rett, who denned religion as morality touched with emotion. Both speakers maintained that spiritualism stood for these principles and that It was true re ligion, up to date, favoring the Western spirit and standing for progress. Both speakers told amusing stories and kept the audience in good spirits. A free-will offering was taken, special music was discoursed, and then came John Slater. He said he was "wound up." He took oc casion to "chide" the Portland press in several respects, and, growing reminis cent, told the audience of his troubles with a San Jose medium. He declared that when he died he would be cremated and would refuse to come back In the spirit through any medium for fear the world would say John Slater was working that medium. He then called for the sealed questions. He advised a young lady in a love affair, told another lady that her mother was well, repeated the remarks of a man about selling out and going to Seattle, and answered some other requests. To amuse his audience he told a lady of troubles she had with a refractory button in such an unfalter ing manner that she acknowledged the fact. His next effort was in the shape of a temperance lecture to a young: man. and he delivered It with all the fact of an inspired prohibition orator in a dry town. He soon came upon questions which did not please him, and tore them in bits, exclaiming, "If you write lies you'll get naught but lies." His next feat was to launch forth upon the field of Medicine, and he foretold the outcome of treatment and operations for several af flicted members of the audience. The meetings will continue today in the af ternoon and evening at Auditorium Hall, 208 Third street. GREAT SALE OF BATHING SUITS.

Will Participate With the Regulars and Other State Troops In the Annual Encampment There. The maneuvers of military forces at the annual encampment at American Lake, Washington, will begin August 27. The encampment was to begin August 10, but owing to the San Francisco disaster the date has been postponed. Nearly 7000 regular troops will partici pate, as well as the National Guards of Oregon, Washington and Idaho. In orders issued to the Oregon National Guard. Adjutant-General W. E. Finzer sets the date for the encampment of the Oregon Guard from August 11 to August 22. but in view of the change of the date from the General Staff, the Oregon mili tia will probably encamp August 2S to September 8. The entire Oregon Guard, with the exception of the First Battery, Field Artillery, will participate in the en campment. The First Battery, instead of going into encampment at American Lake, will make a practice march to Salem, Or., July 12, and return July 23. Although the date of the encampment is yet far distant, Adjutant-General Fin zer is making elaborate plans for the par ticipation of the Oregon boys, as It is ex pected that' this year's encampment at American Lake will be one of the largest ever held there. The following regular troops have been ordered to encamp at American Lake: Third, Seventh, Fourteenth, Twentieth and Twenty-second Infantry; Second and Fourteenth Cavalry; First, Ninth and Twenty-fourth Field Artillery; Seven teenth and Eighteenth Mountain Artil lery; one battalion of Engineers; Com panies C and T and Company H, of the Signal Corps, and Company B of the Hos pital Corps, altogether nearly 7000 men. The encampment will be under the com mand of Brigadier-General Frederick Funston. The disbursing Quartermaster's office In Portland will act as the disbursing Quar termaster's Department for the encamp ment, with Colonel John C. Clem as Quartermaster-General. Heretofore the Seat tle office of Quartermaster has acted in that capacity for the encampments. The detailed orders for the participation of the Oregon National Guard will not be ready for another week, as the Adjutant General has not yet even received the of ficial notifiation of the enampment. It is established beyond a doubt, however, that the entire Oregon Guard will participate. with the exception of the First Battery, altogether 16 companies and one hospital corps.
