gon to Send 1100 Men.
The Oregon National Guard will partici
pate with the Regular Army in the coast
defense and field maneuvers at American
Lake early In August. Official advices to
thU effect and orders assigning the troops
which will take part were received from
the War Department yesterday morning
by Adjutant-General W. E. Finzer.
The official communication is signed by
Acting Secretary of War Robert Shaw
Oliver, and sets out that the Third and
Fourth Oregon Infantry regiments and a
detachment of the Hospital Corps are ex
pected to go to American Lake August 3
and remain there for the maneuvers until
August 12, a period of 10 days. The com
munication Is as follows;
War Department.- Washington Sir: Referring-
to the fact that Conresa has ap
propriated funds for Joint Army and Na
tional Guard maneuver durinie the fiscal
year IWHS-tt and to previous correspondence
had with you in regard thereto, the following-
organizations of Oregon have been invit
ed and are expected to participate in the en
campment of the troops of the Regular Army
at American Lake, Washington, from August
8 to 12: The Adjutant-General. Third and
Fourth Regiments of Infantry, detachment
Hospital Corps. Attention is invited to the
Inclosed notes for the guidance of officers.
Organizations should arrive at camp fully
armed, uniformed and equipped for active
duty in the field and should include in their
equipment such tentage and camp equipage
as Is necessary for all camoing purposes.
Correspondence with reference to the ex
ecution of the details of the movement of
the state troops from their home rendezvous
to instruction camps, their pay, accommoda
tion, subsistence and Instruction at the
ramps and provisions for their return trip
from the camps to their home stations
houM be conducted by the state authorities
directly with the Adjutant-General, lepart
jnent of Columbia, Vancouver Barracks,
Wash.
The maneuvers this year are to be the
most active of any yet held, according to
the memoranda sent out by the War De
partment Borne time ago. More attention
Is to be given to regimental, battalion and
company field work and less to the brig
ade and division, although several days
will be given up to the larger formations.
Heretofore the greater share of benefit
has gone to Colonels and Brigadier-Generals,
but the Majors, Captains and Lieu
tenants will be placed more on their own
resources this year. Oregon will have
about 1100 men In the field.
ADMEN COMING IN JUNE
Preparations Being Made for Con
vention of Coast Association.
Arrangements are being completed
for the semi-annual convention of the
Pacific Coast Advertising- Men's Asso
ciation, to be held in Portland June
1-S, in the auditorium of the Portland
Commercial Club. There will be morn
ing and afternoon sessions during the
convention. Delegates will be present
from San Francisco, Oakland, Los An
geles, Sacramento, Seattle, Tacoma,
Spokane, Butte and Victoria.
The coming session promises to be
one of the most important ever held
by the organization, as there is some
thought of re-establishing the Asso
ciation. It is at present In part made
up of individual members. It is
deemed advisable to have the organ
ization made up exclusively of ad
vertising clubs. The various clubs on
the Pacific Const intend to send In
structed delegates to vote on the
measure.
The question of the advisability of
affiliating with the Associated Adver
tising Clubs of America will also be
' discussed. It Is expected that Byron
W. Orr, of St. Louis; National secre
tary of that organization, will attend
the convention for the purpose of in
ducing the Pacific Coast Association
to join the National body.
One of the most important questions
to come before the coming convention
will be that of dishonest advertising.
This matter is being taken up by ad
vertising clubs throughout the coun
try, and in several of the states bills
are now being prepared to be present
ed at the next sessions of their re
spective Legislatures. An act regulat
ing advertising, which will eliminate
the dishonest advertiser and place ad
vertising on a more legitimate basis
Is now before Congress. At the Jast
session of the Pacific Coast Associa
tion a special committee was appointed
to draft a resolution covering the ques
tion of irregular advertising which is
to be presented at the coming sessions.
Among the affairs planned by the
committee for the entertainment of
delegates and visitors will be the ban
quet to be given in the dining-room
of the Portland Commercial Club. In
addition to the delegates and visiting
advertising men, the guests will in
clude the officers of the warships,
which will be In Portland harbor" at
that time, the officers of the Rose Fes
tival Association.
Arrangements are also being made
for the entertainment of the wives and
families of delegates who will visit the
city while the convention is In session.
The committee in charge of the ar
rangements Is made up of the follow
ing: W. J. Hofmann, chairman; C. F.
Berg, K. J. Jaeger. E. R- Heilig, Scott
Boiorth, H. W. Little. D. C- Freeman.
CASHES A BOGUS DRAFT
Georpe nichl, Accused by R. P. Kf
flrifrer, Sought by Police.
George Diehl, a well-dressed individual
who is said to be a bogus check swindler
from California, is wanted by the Port
land police. Yesterday he presented him
self to R. P. timnger. president .or the
Downlng-Hopkjns Company, and showing
a telegraphic order Identifying him by the.
First National Bank, of Los Angeles, pur
uaded Mr. Effinger to give htm a cheek
tor $1700 on a draft on the Los Angeles
bank for $2500, saying that he would
leave the balance of 1800 on deposit with
the local concern.
Investigation on the part of Mr. Effinger
revealed the fact that Diehl had no
funds at Los Angeles, and he hurriedly
topped payment of the check he had is
sued to Diehl, and notified the police.
According to Mrs. Effinger, Diehl has
been in Portland for about two months
and la a fine-looking, well-dressed fellow,
and associates with persons of good
standing. "I have, known Diehl by sight
for several weeks," said Mr. Effinger,
"but nothing about his financial standing.
He presented the telegraphic order on the
First National Bank, of Los Angeles, and I
believing it was genuine, I accommodated
him with the amount asked. This being
Saturday, and not having cash on hand,
I gave him a check on the First National
Bank of this city for J1700, and in ex
change he gave me his draft on the First
National Bank, of Los Angeles for $2500,
the balance of which he stated he would
like to deposit with us. I have stopped
payment on the check I issued him. and
sincerely hope that he is brought to ac
count before he victimizes some innocent
person.'

SENTENCES ARMY COMRADE
DISAGREEABLE DUTY DEVOLVES
OX JUDGE GAXTEXBEIX.
Sends Brnier Member or His Regl
. ment In Philippines to Peni
tentiary for One Year.
Circuit Judge C. U. Gantenbein, who
was commander of a battalion of the
Second Oregon Volunteer Infantry dur
ing the Spanish-American, War, found
it necessary in the performance of his
judicial duties, yesterday afternoon, to
send one of his comrades of the Philip
pine campaign to the penitentiary. The
prisoner. M. L. Taft. was found guilty
of having participated in an attempt
to hold up a woman at Arleta several
weeks ago. - The charge against him
was that of assault with a dangerous
weapon. .
Taft was not only a member of the
same regiment in the Philippine
Islands with Judge Gantenbein, but he
performed much gallant service, re
enlisting and engaging in the Chinese
campaign. After several years of army
life he suddenly became Irresponsible,
deserted, was caught and sent to Alca
trai for three years, and since then
has been leading a generally worthless
existence.
By another peculiar coincidence, the
lawyer secured to defend Taft at his
trial, Seneca Fonts, was Taffs first
sergeant in the Philippines. Mr. Fouts
made an appeal for leniency on behalf
of his former comrade of the service
and Judge Gantenbein. in recognition
of Taft's conduct in aiding the
authorities to run down an alleged ac
complice in the attempted hold-up, im
posed a Vnedlum sentence of one year
in the " penitentiary at Salem. Taft
thanked the court for the light sen
tence. The assault in -which Taft engaged
was doubtless an attempt at robbery,
although this charge could not be
formally filed, inasmuch as there was
nothing to show an intent to rob. Taft
and an accomplice visited a house, in
Arleta. When the woman of the house
appeared, Taft's companion leveled a
revolver at her and .ordered her to
throw up her hands. At the moment
the woman's husband appeared and the
two fled. -
Taft's hat fell off as he ran and the
officers finding this were able to trace
the headgear to its owner, who proved
to be Taft.. He admitted being im
plicated in the affair and gave the
name of his accomplice.
Judge Gantenbein made no reference
to having been in the service with Taft
when the case was brought up yester
day and in passing, judgment did not
say he would take into account Taft's
record as a volunteer, deciding the
case purely on its merits."
Taft enlisted in the Second Oregon
Infantry from Portland and while
some trouble was had by his officers
in making him observe army discipline,
in the main he made a good soldier,
standing up bravely under the heavy
fire of numerous engagements in which
the regiment was engaged during the
insurrection. It was not until he en
tered the regular army and the cam
paign in China was completed that
camp routine, wore him and he de
serted. For his offense at Arleta he could
have been given as high as ten years
in the Penitentiary or as little as one
month in the County Jail.

Festival Committee Plans to Extend
Many Courtesies to "Jackies"
on Little Warships.
' The executive committee of the Rose
Festival will endeavor to arrange for
even better entertainment for the mos
quito fleet which will be here during
the Rose Festival, than has been pro
vided at Sacramento or at any other
point where the little warships have
been sent. Effort will be made to make
tiie boys in uniform persona grata at
all the theaters and on board all local
streetcars, as well as at all public
functions that will be held during the
week. The matter has been thoroughly
discussed and the decision of the ex
ecutive committee is that the "jackies"
should not be allowed to spend a cent
of money while here, except for living
expenses.
State Master Fish Warden McAllis
ter, chairman of the water carnival
committee. Is working out a programme
along this line and will have a pro
gramme for the water carnival that
has never been equalled in the North
west. McAllister says that Portland
should forget the slight that was
shown by the Navy Department in not
sending battleships here, and pitch in
and give the officers and crews of the
flotilla that will be here the best time
they ever had. He will work with the
general committee and will do all he
can to have the sea warriors feel that
the City of Portland is not remiss in
her duties as a host.
At all places where tha crews of the
fleet have visited, the streetcar com
panies have honored the uniform of
the United States Navy and the boys
have not had to pay carfare, and it Is
hoped that the Festival Association
will be able to secure a similar ar
rangement with the Portland Railway,
Light & Power Company. The matter
will be brought up with the trolley
concern within the next few days. The
local theatrical managers will also be
asked to admit the tars without charge
during their stay here, as all the cities
on the Pacific Coast, as the Associated
Press dispatches will show, have done
this courtesy to Uncle Sam's sea
fighters. .
