Youth Tells Judge Story of "A Man

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 16. So
touched by the pathos of th tale that
he wept during its recital. Charles C.
Rossback. 17, in obedience to a pre
vious court order, told United States
Commissioner Krull the story of "A
Man Without a Country" here today in
lieu of being sent to jail for alleged se
ditious remarks. The complaint against
him was dismissed.
On August 2, following charges that
he had attacked the liberty loan and
upheld German militarism, Rossback
was ordered by Krull to read the book
and to retell the story to the court
today.

SEATTLE, Wash.. Aug.' 16. (Spe

at the National Encampment of the
Grand Army of the Republic at Port

women, and the delegations to all of
the conventions are charged with the
responsibility of promoting the candi

of the great organiza
tion. Delegations en route to Portland are
beginning to arrive ln Seattle, and the
political feature of the encampment is
indicated in hotel lobby gossip. Mr.
Hurd will be the principal Western
candidate, perhaps the only one, and his
large acquaintance with the member

BY BEN HUR LAMPMAN.
Where are the boys of the old bri
gade? Whoever seeks an answer to
the refrain of the song that veterans
cherish will find it in Portland today.
Summoned from every quarter of the
land they fought to save, the lads of
Gettysburg and Sherman's march are
gathering to hold their National en
campment when the Grand Army of
the Republic bivouacs once more.
Streets that within the year have
rocked to cheers which sped the khaki
clad troops to France now witness the
passage of the once familiar blue. To
right and left, wherever one glances,
there is the gilt hatcord and the bronze
medal. In steadily Increasing numbers
the veterans entered the cUy yester
day. Today and tomorrow they will
come by thousands, for Monday marks
the first day of the 52d encampment.

with every one of them housed and
happy. Today the number will hav
trebled. In even greater numbers will
come the members of patriotic auxil
iaries the Woman's Relief Corps, the
Daughters of Veterans and the Ladies
of the Grand Army. Portland is awak
ening to the fact that the highest honor
ever paid to an American city's hos-.
pitality is at hand.
Citizen Asked to Decorate.
For the suitable decking of the
streets and business houses with flags.
bunting and emblems, Mayor Baker has
Issued a call to all citizens to bear
their part in the decorative programme
without further delay. He has called
for the display of the American colors
and the likenesses of our three great
war Presidents Washington, Lincoln
and Wilson. Secretary McCrlllis, of
the citizens' committee, urges the lib
eral showing of the welcome cards to
be had at Liberty Temple.
In testimony of the city's regard for
its guests. Mayor Baker and the City
Councilmen paid their official visit
yesterday to Orlando A. Somers, commander-in-chief,
and to his staff, as
well as to the National presidents
of the Women's Relief Corps and other
auxiliaries. The Mayor bade them wel
come to the city and assured them that
their lightest wish has the weight of
an enacted ordinance.
Another of the official family of the
Grand Army is now in the city in the
person of George A. Hosley, chief of
staff, who arrived from Boston accom
panied by Mrs. Hosley. Yesterday Mr.
I Hosley reviewed the parade plans and
route of march with W. J. Hofmann,
of the parade committee, and sanc
tioned the arrangements of Tuesday's
patriotic pageant, which he will direot.
Veterans Full of Good Stories. ,
Few there are of the veterans who
have not stories of exceptional Inter
est for that is the way with men who
have written history with the swing
of the saber or the point of a bayonet.
Chief of Staff Hosley, with a war rec
ord to occasion pride, would seem to
have had his lot cast in the valley of
adventure, for he was on of the party
which sought for Livingstone, lost In
the dark tangle of Africa, and brought
back the word that the explorer was
alive and waiting rescue.
Afthe Multnomah Hotel last night
the first of many functions of honor
was held, when Commander Somers and
his staff, with the National presidents
of the auxiliaries, were entertained at
dinner by General Charles F. Beebe
and Frank McCrillls. chairman and sec
retary of the citizens' committee, after
ward attending the Helllg as guests
of the management.
Within the next few days thousands
of Portland folk should wear the white
badge which reads: "May I help you.

to make each citizen a member of the
