Splendid Spectacle Presented
by Regulars and Guards
men of All Arms.
OREGONIANS ARE PRAISED
Best Showing Made of Any of the
Guardsmen at American Lake, ,
Say the Officers of the
Regular Army.
BY GEORGE WHITE.
FIELD HEADQUARTERS, American
ILake, Wash., Aug. 10. (Staff Corre
spondence.) The most magnificent mili
tary pageant ever wltnesse In the North
west was the grand review by Brigadier
General Funston today of the 8000 troops
that are participating in the American
Lake maneuvers. Infantry, cavalry and
artillery, making up a great line of men
more than a mile long, marched past the
reviewing officer in the presence of a
crowd of 5000 spectators.
Most of the troops were regulars; a
third were guardsmen. Except for equip
ment and an occasional defect in align
ment, it was difficult to distinguish reg
ulars from guardsmen.
The Oregon infantry men could be dis
tinguished from regulars only by the
regimental colors. In military bearing,
the Oregon men were not one whit in
ferior to the crack Twenty-second and
Fourteenth Infantry regiments. That
much was admitted by tacticians of the
regular Army after the column, had
passed.
Moves Like, Huge Machine.
The entire body of troops was formed
. in one division of five brigades, and the
vast mass of khaki uniforms, glittering
equipment and spirited mounts, swept by
with the easy rhythm of some huge ma
chine. There was not a hitch, not a de
fect in the long line of troops.
The spectacle was one to inspire con
fidence in the ability of Uncle Sam to
hold his own In any altercation which he
may hapen to become engaged. As each
organization passed the big crowd, it was
greeted by liberal applause. It took
nearly an hour for the division to pass.
Promptly at noon General Funston, his
staff and a cavalry escort rode down the
front and rear of the division, while the
troops stood In two lines of masses, the
infantry In front and the artillery and
cavalry In the rear. As the General passed
each regiment its band struck up a lively
air and continued to play until the regi
ment had been passed. Completing the
tour of the line, the reviewing party took
a stand at the west end of the plain and
the division marched by.
Headed by the Engineers.
At the head of the column marched the
First Battalion of Engineers, commanded
by Captain M. L. Walker, with the Four
teenth Cavalry Band. These were fol
lowed by the Seventh. Twentieth and Sec
ond Washington Infantry regiments,
which made up the First Brigade, in com
mand of Colonel Daniel Cornman, of the
Seventh Infantry. In the Second Brigade,
commanded by Colonel E. A. Godwin, the
Twenty-second Infantry was In the van,
followed by the Separate Oregon Bat
talion, in command of Major Toran.
The third brigade, commanded by Col
onel Alfred Reynolds, was lead by the
Fourteenth Infantry. The Third Oregon
Regiment under Coldnel C. U. Ganten
beln completed the infantry column. In
the artillery and cavalry brigades which
followed were the First and Eleventh
Batteries of field artillery. Second and
Fourth Cavalry Regiments and Troop B,
of the Washington National Guard. As
soon as the infantry hed left the field
t"he artillery and cavalry passed around
the field twice at a trot and gallop a
magnificent spectacle which brought forth
much applause from the spectators1.
Complimented by the Regulars.
There is much felicitation In the Oregon
camp tonight as the result of an incident
of the review. As Colonel Gantenbein and
the Oregon regiment took their place in
the line, a Captain of the regular army
rode and stated that he wished to state
unofficially, as the sentiment of regular
army officers generally, that the Oregoni
ans have made the best showing of any
National Guard troops in camp. He said
that officers and men have given out the
Impression since they came to camp that
they are here for business and that they
understand the military game well enough
to conjpete with regular troops in the
field, in camp or on parade.
The review today marked the end of
the encampment for all state troops ex
cept the Oregon Infantry. The majority
of the Third Infantry and separate bat
talion men will remain until WeBnesday.
About 40 men have been excused and will
depart tomorrow, the date originally set
for breaking camp. The Washington
troops left Immediately after the review:
the Montanans and Idaho men will pull
out tomorrow.
Instruction Without Excitement.
Many of the guardsmen have expressed
disappointment with the maneuvers this
year as '"compared with those of two
years ago, when there was a battle every
day and excitement all the time. This
year's maneuvers have been more in the
nature of a big camp of instruction.
Tomorrow all regiments will engage in
drill Instead of field maneuvers and
Tuesday there will be rear and advance
guard skirmishing in which the Oregon
troops will take part.
SOCIALIST DEFIES THE POLICE
Denounces Law and Idaho Officials
on Seattle Street Corner.
SEATTLE, Wash., Aug. 19. (Special.)
Dr. Herman W. Titus, one-time editor of
the National Socialist organ, stood on a
dry goods , box at Second and Union
streets tonight, haranguing a crowd and
defying the police to arrwt.him. He
goaded the officers sent by Chief Wappen
steln to keep the streets open near to
desperation, in his denunciation of the
law and the police, and then, when the
officers refused to act, launched Into a
general attack upon Idaho officers for
their conduct of the Moyer-Haywood
case.
The police had announced they would
prevent the Socialists from blocking the
streets with open-air meetings, but Titus
was ignored tonight.

TILLAMOOK FI IS NEXT
COUNTY'S RESOURCES AND IN
DUSTRIES ON DISPLAY.
Pleasant Outing on Coast an Addi
tional Attraction Will Be
Held August 23-25.
TILLAMOOK, Or., Aug. 19. (Special.)
The people of Tillamook County are ex
erting themselves to make their first
fair a pronounced success. The fair will
be held August 23, 24 and 2$. It will be
an opportune time for the people of the
Willamette Valley to take an outing to
the coast, being after the hay and wheat
harvest here, and before the hop harvest,
and the success of the prospect Is looked
upon as assured.
The Tillamook people have been neg
lected by the railroads and harbor and
coast Improvement committees, and a
decided effort will be made to call the
attention of capitalists, homeseekers and
transportation companies to the wonder
ful resources of that section, and Us
latent possibilities. Although m a pocket,
as it were, land situated like land in
the Willamette Valley is held at nearly
three times as much per acre, and finds
ready sale. t
One of the reasons for this is the' ad
vanced methods of dairying and the
cheese industry. Tillamook cheese has a
name second to none on the coast, and.
an exhlibt of 1000 cases of this product
will be made one of the principal fea
tures at the fair. It is expected that
representatives of dealers in this product
will be present from all commercial cen
ters in the West. A farmers' congress
will be held August 23, at which officers
of the State Agricultural College, and
various state officials, will be present and
participate.
The dairy stock In Tillamook County,
although not of the fanciest in the United
States, possesses qualities that place the
dairy products of that section in first
rank in the commerce of the West. The
best of this stock will be shown at the
fair, together with all the attractions of
an up-to-date street fair and carnival.
The standing timber of Tillamook Coun
ty undoubtedly surpasses that of any
other county on earth, both in quantity
and quality. This source of great wealth
will be exemplified in samples at the fair,
both in lumber and the log.
The honey product will also be in evi
dence, as well as the mammoth vegeta
bles of that section.
On August 24 there will be a develop
ment congress, at which Senator Fulton,
Congressman-elect Hawley, Colonel E.
Hofer. president of the Willamette Val
ley Development League, and Tom Rich
ardson, secretary of the Oregon State
Development League, will be'present and
participate. All these will be things to
boost enterprise in this neglected section.
Such meetings will be productive of big
results. What the Lewis and Clark fair
was to Oregon in general, the Tillamook
fair will be to this county in particu
lar. One unique feature of the fair will be
a drill of 40 young ladies attired as In
dian maidens, carrying spears six feet
In length. Spanning the highways lead
ing to Tillamook are arches, appropriate
ly decorated with flags and bunting, bear
ing the motto: "County Fair, August 23-24-25,
Welcome"; and hundreds of people
who pass on their way to the coast go
under these arches, and tell the story to
campers along the beach of Tillamook's
celebration.
Wood and water will be furnished free
to the army of campers who occupy the
vacant ground adjoining the town. Ex
tra steamer service and reduced rates
will prevail from Astoria, and many
farmers in Tillamook County are arrang
ing to go to the railroad stations at
Forest Grove. North Yamhill and- Sheri
dan for the purpose of transporting vis
itors to the fair.

SALEM, Or., Aug. 19. (Special.) The

TOLO AT GAMPFIHE
Philippine Veterans' Reunion
at American Lake.
OLD BATTLES REFOUGHT
Veterans of Spanish-American War
Vie in Recounting Stories That
Were True at the Time
They Happened.
BY GEORGE WHITE.
OREGON HEADQUARTERS, Ameri
can Lake, Wash., Aug. 19. (Staff Corre
spondence.) The whole Philippine Is
land campaign was fought over again
Friday night, Agulnaldo was captured
QUEEN OF THE CARNIVAL AT TILLAMOOK
r '
ma
MISS IX) TT STEPHENS.
TILLAMOOK, Or., Aug. 19. (Special.) The contest for queen of the
street carnival to be held in this city August 23, 24 and 25 closed recently
with the election of Mis Dott Stephens. The total vote cast was
26,203. Miss Stephens' vote was 15,441. Miss Stephens' election Is due entirely
to her life of unvarying courtesy and amiability. Her sweetness of disposi
tion and beauty have gained her a host of friends among all those who
have known her from early girlhood. Miss Stephens was born In Oregon
and is 19 years old.
and shot, the Filipino army was wiped
entirely oft the map and improvements
were made on every one of the old bat
tles of the late little war.
The occasion was a reunion of the
Philippine Island and Spanish-American
War Veterans at headquarters of the
Oregon camp. There are 22 of these
veterans who are officers of the Third
Oregon, and every one of them was on
hand. The order of the evening was a
general discussion of old imes, and some
of the reminiscences of the Oregon boys
make the works of Munchausen seem
like a part of the county records.
The king-pin exploiter of remlnis
censes of the regiment is Major John L.
May, who has seen much powder burnt
In his day. The Major has an imagina
tion that is second only in quality to
his long line of experience, and when
the two get together the product is
something worth while. Consequently
he was called upon to start things going
when the veterans had been duly as
sembled. Not until 2 o'clock in the
morning did the session end.
Swarthy Fighter With Irish Brogue.
"While we were in Manila City," said
the Major, "you'll all remember that
some of the French and Spanish res
taurants used to serve pretty good food.
I used to eat a great deal at the Paris
restaurant. Agulnaldo and his staff used
to come to the same place.
"One evening Captain Cloman, a Lieu
tenant and myself sat at a four-seated
table. We were juBt beginning to eat
when in comes a Filipino officer and
elts down with us. He was a swarthy,
ornery-looking native, and he offered no
apology as he sat with us and took up
the bill of fare. The Captain said he
was Aguinaldo's Chief of ..Ordnance.
Suddenly the Irish brogue began to fly
from some place. "Sure, an here's some
good auld spuds. Ol 11 take all yez hev
got "
"I looked up to discover the Irishman
behind that brogue. It was the 'Filipino'
officer, Aguinaldo's Chief of Ordnance.
He was the Irishest Irishman that ever
left the bogs. Whoever said the Irish are
lighting everybody's battles but their
own struck it Just right."
Celtic Solution of the War.
"If I had just let one of the privates
of my company have his way there might
never have been any Philippine cam
paign," said Lieutenant-Colonel Poor
man, who commanded a company of the
Second Oregon in the Philippines. "He
was an impulsive Irishman, and it seems
he had heard through Some of the Span
ish and native women that trouble was
brewing, and that Agulnaldo was the
brewer of it.
"Agulnaldo used to pass through our
lines frequently while we were stationed
at Manila. One evening I saw him pass
through. Half an hour later the private
in question came up to me in consid
erable excitement.
'That duffer Agulnalrlo is coming
back through the lines, and I'm going to
shoot him,' he said.
"He meant it, too, and I had some
trouble talking him out of his intention.
Afterwards I was sorry I did not let
him have his way."
Bridge Made of Dead Bodies.
"Speaking of Filipinos reminds me of
the way we used them at the battle of
Malabon," said Captain L. H. Knapp,
regimental quartermaster and humorist.
During the fight at Malabon we were
running short of ammunition. It was
absolutely essential that we . have more
cartridges. Lieutenant Carl Rittenspach
er was sent after It with a caribou cart
in charge of a small detachment.
Half-way back they came across a
trench that they could not cross with
out filling up. The caribou refused to
Jump in fact, you're lucky to get one
of them to move at all. There were no
spades at hand, and Carl was certainly
in a dilemma.
Desperate with the knowledge that the
powder must be taken to the firing line
at all hazards, he suddenly solved the
problem. Taking his men along the
Filipino trench, he gathered a dozen dead
Filipinos who had been Bhot down dur
ing the morning's fighting, and were yet
in good condition. Placing these in lay
ers In the trench, he made a bridge that
served all the needs of the occasion and
enabled htm to get the ammunition to
his regiment in due time.
Too Tough for the Chaplain.
"Speaking of native caribou reminds
me of a little experience that Chaplain
Gilbert had with one," spoke up Captain
Roy Dobie. "It was in the vicinity of
Malabon, and a private from the Twen
tieth Kansas was trying to lead a cari
bou through a mudhole. The Kansas
man was swearing at the too of his
voice and emphasizing his profanity by
prodding the native animal In the ribs
with his Army brogans. Thus it was as
the chaplain came on the scene.
"'Talk kindly to the animal.' remon
strated Chaplain Gilbert. 'You can get
better results by leaving oft your pro-
litis;
fanity and treating the animal with a
little more consideration.'
" 'Let's see you try leadin' "im that
way,' spoke up the wily Kansan.
" 'All right,' assented the chaplain, and
he took hold of the strap. First he
pulled gently, then he tugged and Jerked
ana coaxea ana cajoled. Mister Caribou
never moved an eye. The chaplain final
ly gave It up and handed the strap back
to the driver.
" 'Go ahead and drive him your way,"
he said.
Xascltur Xon Fit.
"There's a sequel to that story," adJed
Colonel Poorman. "A few days later the
chaplain heard a man from the First
Minnesota Regiment cursing a stubborn
caribou as man never cursed before. The
Minnesota native seemed complacent and
calm about It. but the string of oaths ha
was turning loose was horrible or beau
tiful to hear, according to the point of
view.
"My man, where did you learn to swear
In that terrible manner?' the chaplain
asked him.
A broad grin and a look of pride came
Into the soldier's face.
"Ye can't ever learn to swear like
that," he replied; "it's a natural gift."
Rank Makes a Difference.
"Getting back to Manila," said Cap
tain Johnston, "''reminds me of the time
Major McDonell, then Captain of H Com
pany, was Judge-Advocate of a general
court-martial. An ornery wag of a pri
vate from the Sixteenth Infantry, whose
sense of humor was larger thaji his re
gard for discipline, was charged with be
ing drunk.
"Were you drunk or were you not?"
asked the Judge-Advocate
" 'Well.' drawled the buck private, 'fer
an officer, I was sober as a Judge sober
as could be, sir. But for an ordinary
private, I was drunk as a fool.'
Appearances Are Deceitful.
"It Isn't necessary to go to Manila for
your drunk stories," asserted Major
Sternberg, the genial presiding genius of
the medical department. "It's cruel to
tell it but the . other evening Colonel
Gantenbein dropped over to the Montana
camp to visit Colonel Bray, just before
the Montana Colonel resigned. As he
walked up to the tent he tripped and
nearly fell over one of the guy-ropes of
the tent.
"Colonel Bray happened to be coming
out of his tent at the moment. Seeing
a dark object 'stumbling over his tent
rope, he immediately concluded it was a
certain Montajia Corporal who is fond of
his bottle.
"Well, I see you're drunk again!" ex
claimed Colonel Bray.
Those present from the Oregon regi
ment for the reunion were: Colonel Gan
tenbein, Lieutenant-Colonel Poorman,
Majors Charles McDonell and John L
May, Captain A. J. Johnston, Captain L.
H. Knapp. Captain Bros"!us, Chaplain

BLOWN-TO ATOMS
Only Particles of Boys' Bodies
Found After Explosion.
YREKA WINDOWS BROKEN
Destruction of Powder-House Near
the Town Supposed to Have
Been Caused by Small
Rifle Bullet.
YREKA, Cal.. Aug. 19. -Two boys were
killed and another fatally injured in a
powder explosion near here this morn
ing. Powder house No. 1 on the line
of the Yreka branch railroad blew up.
This house is one of three situated about
one mile from Yreka. The explosion com
pletely demolished house No. 1, and blew
the roof off of house No. 2, but No. 8
was unhurt. The scene at the site of
house No. 1 disclosed a hole some ten
feet deep, twisted railroad rails and de
bris in every direction for a distance of
a quarter of a mile. Nearly every busi
ness house in Yreka had its windows
broken.
' Remnants of clothing, a foot, particles
of hair and flesh, found on the hillside
Indicate that two boys were blown
to atoms. Bertie Holland was found
about 75 yards from the scene with his
face lacerated and two holes in his tem
ple, evidently from stones. . The- doctors
say he cannot recover.
Two small rifles found near the bodies
were badly damaged. It is supposed that
the boys shot into the powder house
through a ventilator. The magazine be
longed to the Giant Powder Company,
Consolidated, and a carload of powder
had been stored there the day before.
James D. Fairchild had narrow es
cape. He was within 300 yards of the
house when the explosion occurred and
stones from the building fell around him.
People over a mile away were knocked
down and the shock was felt two miles
away.

famous Log Cabin Hotel at McKenzle
bridge, 46 miles east of Eugene, on the

by fire yesterday morning about 10
o'clock. The fire started from a spark

Tax Commissioners Need More Cash.
OLYMPIA, Wash., Aug. 19. (Special.)
The State Board of Tax Commissioners
will be obliged to ask a larger appropria
tion for traveling expenses from the next
Legislature than was given last time.
The bill creating the Tax Commission
appropriated $3000 for traveling expenses,
Incidentals and supplies, and this has
been found insufficient to carry on the
work with which the board is charged.
The Tax Commission Is charged with
the duty of advising with the County
Boards of Equalization throughout the
state, and the members of the board had
planned to visit practically ail of the
counties while the Equalization Boards
were in session, but the shortage of
funds is one of the reasons this work
cannot be 'done.

IRRIGATION CONGRESS.
Governors of Several States Have
Placed No Restriction on the
Number of Appointees.
BOISE. Idaho, Aug. 19. With a number
of states yet to be heard from, more
than 1200 delegates have been appointed
to the national irrigation congress and
have notified the executive committee
that they will be present when the oon
gress convenes on the morning of Sep
tember 1. While under the constitution
each state is entitled to but 15 delegates
to be appointed by the Governor, but
little attention has been paid to this re
striction. Governor Hanley, of Indiana, appointed
94 citizens to accompany Vice-President
Fairbanks; Governor McDonald, of Colo
rado, appointed 42; Governors Chamber
lain, of Oregon, and Cutler, of Utah,
more than 100 each, and other Chief hJx
ecutlves are appointing all who want to
attend. Fully 2000 delegates are expected.
Local committees have completed ar
rangements for entertaining i.ie delegates
and visitors to the congress. A house-to-house
canvass of the city has been
made and all will be comfortably accom
modated at reasonable rates. At - the
close of the congress the delegates will
be taken on special excursion trains
through various irrigated sections of the
state.

Incident on Train
Fellow Passenger Who Shows Keen

was one of those sort of things that sets
a man to thinking, and doesn't soon pass
out of his mind."
The speaker was a traveling man at
the Hotel Portland last night. He was

man in a seat near me," he said, in be

window as the train traveled on its way.
Behind him, I remembered afterward,
there was another man, who paid con
siderable attention to the fellow in front
who was so engaged with his thought
and the scenery.
"The meditating man sat almost mo
tionless for an hour or more. His hands
were In his lap and covered by an open
newspaper, which evidently had been
reading and dropped carelessly. .
"As, the train steamed through the Sa
lem yards the man's attention seemed to
be In the direction of the State Peniten
tiary, the tops of which buildings could
be seen In the distance. Still he said
nothing.
"A few seconds before the train came
to a standstill a stranger approached the
man I had been watching. 'There's the
pen over there,' he said to the other.
'Think of the hundreds of poor devils
confined there who are worse than dead!
How would you like to be bound for that
place?"
"As he asked this question the cars
stopped, and the man who had attracted
my attention arose, the newspaper
