These prairies are separated by large bodies of dense timber and underbrush that will be useful as a shield to hide the move ments of one body of troops from an- other and thereby make more effectual the surprise of a flank movement by either division when the final struggle Elect rlo Line to Oamp. For the convenience of both officers and men an electric carllna has been built to the camp from Tacoma and half- lmurly service will bo established be twpen the two places An additional pleasure Is In store for the officer of the camp due to tha hospitality of the A m t f s- - - ; Major Frank C.

The picturesque grounds or this club adjoin tna camp ana an invitation has been extended to all offi cers to make the club house their head quarters when off duty. A number of entertainments and social functions have been arr&need at the club house at which these officers are to be the guests of honor.

This second warrant la sworn to bv S. V, Davldor, who charges AVade with obtaining $100 from him while claiming to be a lawyer. Frank Kublk Is another com- 4 plalnant, and according to Dls- 4) trlct Attorney Cameron other cases are pending against Wade. The accused man had an appoint- 4 nient to meet the complainants In the district attorney's office 4 at 10 o'clock yesterday morning, but failed to keep his engage- 4 orient and the matter was then turned over to the police and w constable's office.

Instend of doing so by the usual methods he had the $500 due 4 Kublk turned Into bonds upon which he quickly realized the cash value. When Kublk ques- w ttoned him he declared he had 4 sent the bonds back to San Francisco for registration. Wade has been In Portland for several years. It Is understood he came from Chicago.

The crest of the divide reopens the broad vista of country, and as the de scent Is begun Conkey remarks casual ly, as If he were In town and saw an acquaintance approaching along the street. "Here comes Charlie!" At this Juncture, however, "Charlie" can be de scribed only as an infinitesimal patch upon the snaky trail In the far distance. - Twice or thrice he Is lost behind the intervening hills, and finally pulls up alongside with a cargo of . mall and Mexican sheep shearers In the "Yellow Kid." a monster car of the mall route I company's own construction.

One of their number received some free advertising, which caused what seems to a man in a tree some jealousy amongst his brethren. We buy space to tell the public that they can have their teeth extracted and other work performed in the most satisfactory manner without causing pain, and there may be a tinge of jealousy shown by some dentists. We supply teeth without plates that look as well and chew your food as well as the natural teeth. All of our work is of "the highest order of skill, and our prices extremely moderate. SB. B. B.
