Into the stream from the North Bank
dock at about :I0 o'clock yesterday
morning and farewells were at an end.
following- an exchange of well wishes
between the crowds that lined the dock
and the uniformed soldiery on the ship.
There were many tears shd quietly,
for the a-otnr of the First Infantry
meant a loss tn some left behind, yet
they were consoled with the thought
that the warriors were not bound to the
dark Junales and swamps of the Phil
ippines, hut only headed for the Ha

Bla Crvwda YUII Dark.
The sailing of the Sherman was like
the departure of dozens of other trans
ports In the days when tlie movement
of troops was regular, but In this In
stance It was close to home, and to all
appearances It was as regretful as If
the First was actually hending Into the
enemy's country- In the absence of
records It Is said the rrurh at the
dock was the greatest In the history of
any event on the waterfront. Long be
fore the hour of departure hund'eds be
gan to assemble and there was delega
tions from Vancouver to add their
Quota.
Amonf the preliminaries was the dis
embarking of the First Infantry. 1t)
retro casuals who were brought from
San Francisco and other soldiery, so
that officers of the ship could make a
complete Inspection. From the uprer
deck to the lowest depths of Lhr hold
the searchers wended tnelr war and at
last were rewarded, for In the dark re
cesses of the bunkers, hemmed In with
great piles of coal, were found eight
Filipinos. The dusky natives had stowed
away at San Francisco, evidently ex
pecting to e!ud the matchfulness of
officers, and with the assistance of their
brethren In the crew, manage to eke
out an existence until the ship rode Into
Manila Bay.
During the search the regiment and
unaeelgne troops were mustered on the
dock and were marched back at the
conclusion of the Investigation, while
the Filipinos wer placed In the brig
with seven others who had stowed away
at Honolulu and were found on tiie way
to Pan Francisco, so are bring returned
to the Hawaiian port.
Old Tsiei Revived.
The First Infantry Band had revived
Its old repertoire for the occasion and
rendered "The Girl I Ieft Pehtnd 11'."
"My Bonnie Lies Over the tx-ean" and
"Good-bye. Llt!e filrl. Good-be." all
of which "took" with old-time enthusi
asm. There were other selections of a
popular and patriotic character.
After the Fhcrman got under way. her
twin screws having swung her nose
down stream with little delay, there
waa a mass of official mail, orders and
other documents to come ashore and a
signal waa given Harbormaster Sprier,
who sis on hand with the harbor pa
trol launch. In which waa Major Arthur
tv. Tates. Quartermaster Department,
stationed here. With a dft heaving of
the emergency line carried .on the
launch, the transport's deck was reached
and the mall sent down.
As far as the lower end of the harbor
the launch escorted the big troopship
and then, with three whistle signals,
she turned about, while the Sherman
answered, and In turn replied to factory
whistles, salutes from locomotives and
the farewell screeches of noise produc
ers on various plants all Joining In
the last demonstration to the First, a
regiment that has made history for It
self and the Nation.

VAXCOUVKU BARRACKS STILL

Llfutcnant-Colonrl Cnbcll, AViio
Came in 1884 as Cndcr Officer,
Is Xow In Command.
VANCOUVER BARRACKS. Wash
May 10. (Special.) With the First
Infantry gone the post seems almost
deserted, although there are more than
600 oflicers and enlisted men yet re
maining here. Lieutenant - Colonel
Henry C. Cabell, unattached, waiting
for orders, has assumed command of
the post, he being the highest ranking
officer. He will be relieved by Colonel
George K. Toung, of the Twenty-first
Infantry, which is due to arrive Mon
day on the transport Thomas from
Manila. He Is thought to have about
li officers and about 320 enlisted men
under his command.
An interesting coincidence waa
learned today when Colonel Cabell re
called that he came to Vancouver Bar
racks In July, 1884, from Cantonment-on-the-Uncompahgre,
in Colorado, with
the Fourteenth Infantry. This regi
ment relieved the Twenty-first In
fantry, which was under command of
Colonel Henry Morrow, father of Judge
Morrow, of Portland. Colonel Cabell
had been in the service but a year at
that time and was a Second Lieutenant.
Now be is Lieutenant-Colonel In com
mand of Vancouver Barracks, and will
welcome back the Twenty-first In
fantry. Colonel George Young was
stationed here as Post Quartermaster
in 1900 with the Seventh Infantry.

A BALD -HEADED WOMAN
Shorn of Her Ctowi ef Beauty, Loses in
Love and Marriage.
Hair is certainly most necessary to
woman. Who could love and marry
bald-headed woman? What charms
could one array to offset such a dis
figurement?
A woman's goal is usually love and
marriage. Her crowning glory is her
hair. The loss of her hair mars her
beauty, happiness, and success. Yet,
right here in Portland, there are thou
sands of women who are neglecting or
injuring their liatr to such an extent
that it Is only a matter of time when
it will be utterly ruined.
Many women destroy the beauty of
their hair through thoughtlessness or
ignorance of certain facts. They .use
curling irons over-heated, or to excess,
which destroys the natural oil of the
hair, causing it to split, break, and
come out. They do not shampoo their
hair often enough, or too often. They
use soaps or preparations which con
tain "ingredients positively harmful to
the scalp and hair.
As a result of such treatment, dan
druff is created, the hair loosens, loses
color, falls out, and baldness com
mences, unless proper and prompt pre
cautions are taken in time. Then
again, microbes and certain diseases
bring about unhealthy scalp and hair
conditions.
Almost any woman may rid herself of
dandruff and diseased scalp and hair if
she will but use the right remedy. We
have that remedy, and-we win positive
ly guarantee that it will either cure
dandruff and baldness or it will not
cost the user anything.
That's a pretty broad statement, but
we will back it and prove it with our
own money. We will return your money
if you do not find that Rexall "93" Hair
Tonic is an entirely satisfactory remedy
that will promote hair growth and
overcome scalp and hair troubles: that
It will grow hair even on bald heads,
unless all life in the hair roots has been
extinguished, the follicles closed and
the scalp is glazed and shiny. It gets
Its name from the fact that it grew
hair In 93 out of 100 cases, .where it
received a thoroughly hard, impartial,
and practical test.
We want you to try Rexall "93" Hair
Tonic at our risk. You surely cannot
lose anything by doing so. while you
have everything to gain. You had bet
ter think this over, and then come in
and see us about this offer. You will be
well repaid for your visit to our store.

"PORTLAND DAY" LURES
ROSEBCRG CARXIVAL WORKERS
MAKE BIG PLAXS.
Already More Than 200 Rcserva
tions for Excursion to Strawberry
Festival Are Listed.
With 1I arrangements completed for
a special train from Portland for
"Portland day" at the Rose burg straw
berry carnlvsl Thursday, May 16, F.
E. Alley and other members of the com
mittee from Roseburg are making an
active campagn to arouse interest and
insure a large delegation from this city.
With Mr. Alley on the Roseburg com
mittee are: C. H. Leadbetter, A. T. Mar.
shall. Dr. A. C. Seely, R. A. Smith,
Clyde Barger and W. E. Campbell, all
from Roseburg. Reaching Portland
Thursday. Mr. Alley established head
quarters at the Imperial Hotel and
from that place will conduct the cam
palgn for the strawberry carnival.
Already more than 200 reservations
have been made for the excursion and
Mr. Alley reckons upon a still greater
Increase before tomorrow.
"We want the Portland people - to
visit us on the first day of the carni
val especially, since that is Portland
day," said the chslrman of the commit
tee, "but we want them also to remain
over for the entertainments of the two
days following, as many of them as
possible."
Mr. Alley promised yesterday that
every Portland visitor should have "a
chance at more strawberries than he
could eat," and the best of hospitality
that Roseburg can offer.
On Thursday evening after the open
ing of the carnival, the women of the
city will give a, reception for the visit
ing Portland people in the Elks temple.
Friday will be devoted to the fraternal
orders, which will have representatives
in Roseburg from every part of the
state, and on Saturday a big parade
of livestock from Douglas County
farms will be the main feature of at
traction. But at all times throughout
the carnival, and everywhere in the
city, strawberries are to be as plenti
ful and as free as are the roses in
Portland during the Rose Festival.

Rheumatism is das to an excess of uric add, an irritating, inflammatory
accumulation, which gets into the circulation because of weak kidneys,
constipation, indigestion, and other physical irregularities which are usually
considered of no importance. .Nothing applied externally can ever reach
the seat of this trouble; the most such treatment can do is soothe the pains
temporarily; while potash and other mineral medicines really add to the
acidity of the blood, and this fluid therefore continually grows more acrid
and vitiated. Then instead of nourishing the different muscles and joints,
keeping them in a normally supple and elastio condition, it gradually hardens
and stiffens them by drying up the natural oils and fluids. Rheumatism can
never be cured until the blood is purified. S. S. 8. thoroughly cleanses and
renovates the circulation by neutralizing the acids and driving the cause
from the system. It strengthens and invigorates the blood so that instead
of a sour, weak stream, depositing acrid and painful corrosive matter in
the muscles, joints and bones, it nourishes the entire body with pure, rich
blood and permanently cures Rheumatism. 8. S. 8. contains no potash,
alkali or other harmful mineral, but is made entirely of roots, herbs and
barks of great purifying and tonio properties. Book on Rheumatism and
