WITH THE 162D UNITED STATES
INFANTRY N. G. (BEAVER) REGI
MENT, Camp Green. N. C Oct. 2.
(Special Correspondence.) If this mil
itary cantonment is going' to live, the
good people of Charlotte will have to
Kit up and take notice. There has
been, since the camp was established,
a. muddle that on the surface strikes
the man on the rim as smacking' of
politics, although the wise men of the
town are trying to keep it in the back
ground, and now that the camp is a
reality are trying: to make up for the
camp's many deficiencies. In the first
place the- camp is not large enough
for what it is intended for. The next is
the lack of proper sanitation of the
town itself. It is this thing of proper
sanitation that will bring about the
break.
One of the first things I ran into
tonight was a public meeting held for
the purpose of rousing the people, not
only to the lack of proper city sanita
tion, but to the loose moral conditions
of the town. On the platform, with
the Mayor of Charlotte and a new
Board of Health, with a new health
officer just Imported from another
city, sat Major George E. Houck, for
mer health officer of Roseburg, Or.,
and a host of other Army doctors.
The officers did not mince words when
it came to telling the audience what
the Army medical department would
do if the citizens of Charlotte did not
awaken to the dengers which the town
was placing before the soldiers, who.
they said, were coming" to Charlotte
free of disease from, their homes in
the West, only to run into a deadfall
here.
Vice District Patrolled.
Each took up one of the different
branches of sanitation. As they ex
pressed their views and named the
remedy for existing conditions there
was some enthusiasm, but not much.
It was polite and that was all. show
ing that these people do not like to
have a spade called a spade. Yet be
cause the people of Charlotte rather
pride themselves upon their moral
tone, the women of the underworld,
both white and black, will be ordered
to leave town. As it is now, two
companies or the Washington cavalry
are on duty as provost police and are
keeping soldiers out of the danger
tone to which the Army medical, offi
cers have traced most of the prevailing
disease.
Camp Bu No Place for Target".
One of the big arguments in favor
of the people of Charlotte bestirring
themselves over the moral and sani
tary problem is the fact that the camp
has been found not large enough to
accommodate all the organizations
that are billed for this cantonment. As
a drill ground for infantry Camp
Greene will serve, although it's very
crowded. There is no place for a tar
get range for the battery and the
camp will not furnish the best place
in the world for a drill ground for
the cavalry. Rumor has it that a
part of the camp has been already
condemned, not so much because of
the things which I have mentioned as
because of a deep ravine which runs
through a part of the camp.
Correct Address Given.
Correctly stated, the Third Oregon Is
now a member of the 81st Infantry
Brigade of the 41st Division.
Here is the proper way the home
folks should address their letters. At
the top of the left-hand corner of the
envelope should be written: "Return
to, the sender." Then the address
should be: "Mr. Pots Dismuke. Com
pany Q. 162d Infantry. 41st Division,
Camp Greene, Charlotte, N. C." If
letter writers will follow this form of
addressing their communications they
will rarely go astray, for it is the form
which Army regulations say is correct.
"Hungry" Subdues Bumptious One.
It is a little too early to tell of some
of the many funny things which hap
pened on the long trip to Charlotte
One of the very humorous, yet Jolting,
signs that will be long remembered by
all who read it was a sign in an un
dertaker's window. The train was
passing through the negro quarters of
one of the Southern towns at the time.
The sign read: "You may pass now,
but we'll get you yet."

SERIOUS PROBLEM FACED
GIANTS WILL TRY AGAIN
Continue! From First Pure.)
all through Sunday and late today in
sending out the pasteboards.
Hundreds of telegrams and letters
remain unanswered. The club offices
were crowded most of the day with
fans trying to buy tickets, but there
were none to be had.
Tonight some of the reserved seats
began to appear at ticket agencies and
among speculators, but the number was
not as large as was expected. The New
York club took every precaution, based
on past performance, to get the much-sought-after
tickets into the hands of
patrons and not the speculators. Never
theless some choice seats in the upper
stand were offered at $35 for a set of
three and $70 for two seats to each of
the three games. Some seats near
third base were offered for sale at ?20
each.
While' the inquiry for tickets was
brief, most of those seeking them were
slow to buy at tonight's high prices,
hoping that there would be a drop
tomorrow. Some of these fans are
figuring that because of the two de
feats suffered by the Giants, the de
mand for tickets will not be so great
and that prices will drop tomorrow.
Police Keep Line In Order.
More than 25,000 tickets for the
lower grandstand and the bleachers
will be placed on sale tomorrow morn
ing and when the seating capacity of
the grounds is reached all gates will
be closed. Those purchasing tickets
must go directly into the grounds. The
club management hopes that by this
arrangement the number of tickets
falling into the hands of speculators
will be kept down.
The bleacher line began to form to
night, and is expected to lengthen rap
idly during the early hours tomorrow.
A large detail of police was on hand
to keep the crowd in order.
The New York club management ex
pects that about 38,000 persons will
pay to see the game. Thousands of
fans from other cities have arrived to
witness one or more of the games, and
hotel accommodations were difficult to
obtain tonight.
What little betting was reported to
night was 2 to 1 that the White Sox
would win the series. It was even
money when the Giants left for the
West. Some New York bettors were
looking for longer odds. Bets were
made that Chicago would not win four
straight, and other bets were recorded
that New York would win two games
in the series.
Sox Followers Foresee Victory.
New York fans are hopeful that the
Giants' pitching staff will pull itself
together and that the team as a whole
will start hitting. They figure that
Zimmerman and ICauff, who failed to
connect safely In the two games at
Chicago, are about due to break loose
with their bats. The Giants confidently
count on winning the opener before the
home crowd, and feel that the chances
also will favor them to win on the fol
lowing day.
The followers of the Western team,
however, flushed with two victories,
scent another one tomorrow. Having
looked over . McGraw's best pitchers,
with the exception of Benton, and
found none of them difficult to reach,
the Sox rooters think that no matter
who goes in against Chicago the result
will be the same.
Pitching possibilities are always a
matter of speculation. If Manager
Rowland starts Cicotte McGraw may
send Sallee to oppose him. Another
possibility is Schupp against Russell.
It is probable that Rariden will do
the catching for New York, as Mc
carty's shoulder and arm are still sore
from the fall at the home plate in Chi
cago Sunday, when he tried to touch
out Heboid.

BY RHETA CHILDE DORR.
(Sixth of a dally series of articles telling
the inside story of Russia's revolt. Copy
right. 191T, by the New York Evening Mail.
Published by arrangement.)
In a great bare room, furnished with
rows of narrow cots like a hospital, but
with none of the crisp whiteness of the
hospital, nor any of its promise of re
lief and restoration, a young man sat
propped with pillows, playing on a con
certina. He was white, emaciated, near
the end of his young life.
His eyes were like banked fires. He
sat up in bed and in the intervals of
coughing made the most wonderful
music on that concertina, much more
wonderful than I had ever dreamed
that humble instrument could produce.
The man was a true musician, and he
had had many years of practice on his
concertina, for it had been the one
friend and solace of a solitary confine
ment which lasted nearly a dozen years.
All around him in that bare room
men lay in bed and listened to him.
Some, however, were asleep. Even
music could not break their weary
rest. All were sick. Some were as
near death as was the musician. Siberia
had done its work with them. They had
come to die.
On a soap box, or its equivalent on a
corner of the Nevskl Prospekt near the
Alexander Theater, a young man stood
and poured out a passionate speech to
the crowd of soldiers, workmen and
workwomen and idle boys who had
paused to listen. The man was about
30 years old, and his clothes, it was
plain to see, had never been purchased
In Russia.
American Clotbesi Worn.
They were American clothes of fair
quality, and of that stylish cut possible
to buy for $25 in almost any depart
ment store. He wore a derby hat.
tipped back on his head, a soft collar
and a flowing tie. He talked rapidly
and with many gestures, and the crowd
listened with rapt interest to his
speech.
He spoke fluent Russian, and he had
lived in America for ten years. I, too.
stopped to listen. "What is he saying?"
1 asked my Interpreter.
I don t like to tell you." she replied.
I Insisted, and this is an almost lit
eral translation of what that man said,
on that Petrograd street corner,, on an
August day, 1917:
"You people over here in Russia don't
want to make a mistake of setting up
kthe kind of republic of the kind of
phony democracy like what they've got
in the United States. I lived in the
United States for ten years, and you
take it from me, It's the worst govern
ment in the world. They have a Presi
dent who is worse than the Czar. The
police are worse than Cossacks. The
capitalist class is on top there Just
like they were in the old days In
Russia. The working class is fighting
them, and they are going to win. We
are going to put the capitalists out
Just like you put them out here, and
don't you let any American capitalists
come over here and help fasten on you
a government like that one they still
have in America. It's the capitalists
that plunged America into into war.
The working class never wanted it."
Extlesj Are of Two Types.
These are two types of exiles which
Russia has called back to her bosom
since the revolution, both of which
constitute another grave problem with
which the distracted people are strug
gling. The sick ones, of whom there are
thousands, are In Russia, and more of
them are arriving from Siberia all the
time, at a time when food suitable for
the sick is impossible to obtain. There
is almost no milk. Eggs are hard to
get and are not very fresh. Food of all
kinds is getting scarcer every day.
There is a fuel shortage that is going
to make all Russia spend a shivering
Winter, and what will become of the
sick is a grave question.
And nearly all the exiles come back
sick and homeless and penniless. Russia
must take care of those freed Siberian
exiles, and I don't quite see how she is
going to do It, unless the miracle hap
pens and they find a way of restoring
peace and order in the land. In that
case they can do anything. They can
even deal with the kind of exile I heard
talking on the Nevski.
Carlyle says that of all man's earthly

Blaine Devers, a Portland boy
now living at Tumalo, is putting
The Oregonian Want Ad Man to
the test. Devers has a motor
cycle stored in Portland and he
wants to sell or trade the ma
chine. Mr. Devers sent the
Want Ad Man what he calls a
pedigree of the gas consumer,
together with a check for a
small amount and a letter daring
the Want Ad Man to get a
customer for the go-devil.
Fortune is going to bat Mr.
Devers right between the eyes.
The ad is in the paper, and the
Want Ad Man is confident of
the result.
If McGraw used the want ad
page of The Oregonian he would
stand a fine chance to land a
world championship.
The want ad page is the
great human interest section of
any newspaper, and the pointing
finger indicating the advertising
value of all of the columns of
that newspaper. Want ads are
printed where they get results
for traders, etc. The paper that
prints most want ads is the

possessions, unquestionably the dearest

strongest hold on us without a. doubt.
At the time of the French revoluHon
the sign and symbol of the old regime
was the Bastile, that state prison In
Paris which was the living grave of th
King's enemies, or of almost anybody
who made himself unpopular with one
of the King's favorites. When the
French people rose up in their might
and swept the old regime out, the first
thing they did, obeying a common im
pulse, was to tear down and destroy
utterly the Bastile.
In Russia the sign and symbol of the
autocracy was the exile system, and
particularly Siberia. The first thing the
Russian people did when they rose up
and dethroned the Romanoffs was to
send telegrams to every political prison
and to. every convict village in Siberia
that the prisoners and exiles were free.
They sent orders to all the Jailers and
guards that the exiles were to be fur
nished with clothing and money and
transportation to the railroads, and the
railroads were directed to bring them
back to Petrograd.
News) of Freedom Brings Joy.
There is something to stir the coldest
blood in the thought of what it must
have meant to those poor, desolate
creatures, living In the hopeless isola
tion of Siberia, to have the door of the
cell open one February day and hear
the words, "You are free!" Sometimes
the announcement was prefaced by
words of unheard friendliness and
courtesy from wardens and Jailers who
had before been cruel and brutal task
masters. "Please forgive me If I have
been over-zealous in my duties," these
men would say, and the prisoner would
think that he had gone mad and was
dreaming. Then the announcement
would come, unbelievable In its won
der; the revolution had actually hap
pened, 'ihe tjzar was gone. The pris
oner was free.
They heard the news in the depths of
mines, where men worked shackled.
They heard it in lonely villages near
the Arctic Circle. They heard it In far
lands, where homesick men and women
toiled in sweatshops among aliens.
They were free, and Mother Russia was
calling them home again. I should
think they would have died for Joy at
the tidings.
No generous mind can wonder that
Russia called back her children, all of
them, without stopping to sort out the
good and the bad. the well and the sick.
the desirable and the undesirable. Or
without stopping to calculate how she
was going to take care of them when
they got there.
But very early In the day it became
evident that Russia was going to face
a serious problem in her returned ex
iles. In the very first days of the revo
lution they opened all the prison doors
in Petrograd as well as in Russia, and
let all the prisoners out. Among them
were a number of politicals, and many
of them immediately became public
charges. They had no money. no
friends, no home. The revolution had
robbed them, in some cases, of all three.
In some cases of long Imprisonment the
homes and friends had been taken from
them by death.
Returned Exile Cared For.
There had been a committee working
secretly in behalf of political prisoners,
and now this committee, with a group
in the Red Cross, got together and
formed a society which they call the
Political Red Cross, the committee in
charge of returned exiles. For they saw
plainly that what had happened in the
case of the Petrograd prisoners would
be repeated on a large scale when the
Siberian exiles and those from foreign
lands returned. Another committee was
formed in Moscow. They sprang up in
various cities, co-operating with the
Zemstvoes or county councils.
At the head of the work is Vera
Figner, one of the most famous of the
old revolutionists, almost the last sur
vivor of the nihilism of the 1870's.
The Russians are said to lack organ
izing ability, but the work done by this
committee under Vera Flgner's direc
tion looks to me that once Russia gets
a government that can goven and an
army that will fight the people of
Russia will organize a civilization that
will teach Europe new things.
I had come to find Marie Spirodonova,
one of the most appealing as well as
the most tragic figures of the revolu
tion of 1905-06. She was the Charlotte
Corday of that revolution, for like
Charlotte she, unaided by any revolu
tionary society, freed her country of
one of the worst monsters of his time.
Shot shot and killed the half-mad and
wholly horrible governor of Tobolsk.
And like Charlotte she paid for that
deed with her life. She lived indeed to
return to Russia, but her span after
that was short.
Tuberculosis Claims, Victim.
Marie Spirodonova was in the last
stages of tuberculosis when they
brought her back to Russia. Ten years'
solitary confinement had done that for
her. The first sentence of death, after
ward commuted to 20 years' exile,
would have been shorter and more
merciful. When I saw her she was in
bed, so wasted that she looked like a
child. The flush of fever on her cheeks
gave her a false look of health, and she
looked almost as pretty as on the day
when she stood in the prisoners' dock
and told the judges how and why she
killed the monster of a governor.
Her voice was all but gone now, and
it was in a hoarse whisper that she.
greeted me, and asked news of her one
or two friends in America. I could stay
only a few minutes, she was so weak.
It is hardly possible that she still lives.
although no news of her death has
reached me.
Until the last breath she must have
kept her Iron will and indomitable
spirit. Ten years in a solitary cell
could not break that spirit, as the story
of her release shows. When the first
telegram came to the distant prison,
where she and nine other women were
confined, the names of only eight of
them were specifically mentioned.
"But what about us, wailed the two
forgotten ones.
Spirit of Comradeship Strong;.
The warden of the prison perhaps
did not entirely believe in the success
of the revolution, and wanted to be on
the safe side. "You stay," he said.
"Then none of us will go," said
Marie Spirodonova, and they all stayed
until the next day when another tele
gram arrived setting them all free.
In the same spirit Spirodonova re
fused to leave her companions after
they reached Petrograd. She was so
famous, so sought after, that she could
have chosen among a dozen hospitable
homes, in the country, in the Crimea or
the bracing mountains ' of the Cau
causus. But she said she would not
have anything her old prison mates did
not have, so Marie Spirodonova, daugh
ter of a general, and the concertina
player, child of a peasant, will die as
they lived, revolutionists, spurning all
the comforts of life, all the protection
and security of home, all the plaudits
of the world.
They lived and died for Russia as
surely as though they died on the
battlefield.
Of the same type Is the most cele
brated exile of all, Catherine Bresh
kovskaia, the babushka, or little grand
mother of the revolution. They brought
Babushka back to Petrograd in the
first rush. They gave her a reception
at the station such as no crowned head
in Europe ever had, and they took her
to the Winter Palace and told her that
when the Czar moved out he left it to
her. ,

Babushka lives in the Winter Palace
