"Intensive" Assumes New

Bring Cheers at Reveille.
a
Presidio, San Francisco, May 19.
(P. N. S.) The Thirteenth Company
at the camp for reserve officers haa
a man with a high tenor snore, ac
cording to Arthur Caylor of Port
land, its only redheaded member, who
said today that if snoring were a
physical defect he would be the only
man In the company left In camp.
This tenor snore," said Caylor "Is
the property of the man In the bunk
next to mine. It develops Its full force
about four minutes after lights are put
out, and after waiting SO minutes last
night to see if It 'was a mere flash in
the pan or a steady performer, I de
cided It was an enduring snore."
Caylor himself snores a deep base,
according to other members of the com
pany. Holiday Time Weloomed.
Reveille was greeted with three
rousing cheers this morning. It was
tne first time that the sharp, snappy
and much- hated call had been shown
any appreciation at the camp.
There was a mighty, good reason
for the outburst of enthusiasm. It
meant that the boys were waking up
for only halt a day's work Instead of
the 15-hour grind that the bogle usual

one time was president of the Central

They were through at noon today,
through with a gruelling week's work,

to rest and catch up on their "book
work," If there Is "uch a thing as ever
catching up with that. Army officers
who have been lb the service two or
three decades haven't caught up with
it yet.
Intensive Has Sew Meaning;.
The boys need the rest. There is no
doubt about that. They have had
seven days of work that has given the
word Intensive an entirely now mean
ing to most of them. It is predicted
that, for years to come, when anybody
casually mentions the word intensive,
former training camp cadets will au
tomatically stiffen their pines and
get ready to salute something or
other.
And, peaking of saluting, the worst
of that is over now. At first a lot of
the hoys found some difficulty in dis
covering the difference between a
regular or militiaman of enlisted rank,
who wore leather puttees, from an of
ficer, and consequently leather puttees
were pretty generally saluted, no mat
ter who wore them.

them, have learned that everything
that wears leather puttees is not the
holder of a commission by the presi
dent of the United States, so saluting
is governed accordingly.
Vaccination against smallpox and
inocoulatlon against typhoid is one of
the War's horrors, occurring this aft
ernoon and tomorrow. Many of the
men have had these little matters at

typhoid inocculatlon . once. It comes
three times, though, in doses 10 days
apart, and It la given on Saturdays as
much as possible, so that if there are
any bad effects for a few hours, work
win not be halted.

Have Different Ylew la Case,
Several Portland high school senior
boys who enlisted In various branches
of the national guard at America's
entrance into " the war are finding
themselves embarrassed by a board
of education requirement that they
return to school and take the examin
ations If they hope to be graduated
with their classes.
Superintendent L. R. Alderman
charges that. these boys did not play
fair in not returning to school when
it appeared tney would not at once
be called Into federal service. The
boys, however, assert they believed
the promise of the board that they
would be graduated meant what it
said and that their school worries were
oyer whether their service units were
actually called out or not.
Superintendent Alderman declares
that for their own good as well as
that of the public the boys not called
to service should be at their desks, and
that they must return if they expect
to finish with the class.
There is no disposition." said Mr.
Alderman, "to be unreasonable with
the-boys, and they will no doubt be
graduated If they do as expected.
Every allowance will be made for the
time they have been absent, but it is
necessary that they receive every ben
efit thJ school can give them, and
which the delay now enables them to
get."
The boys affected say they acted in
good faith, assuming that the board's
letter meant that they had finished
their school work and were free to
continue their ml'lltary and general ac
tmties.

Marshfield, Or., May 19. The mur
der of his 17-year-old eon. Clay Burns.
wbo had but one leg and was a con-1
sumptive, is the charge made by thai
coroner's Jury against James Burns, !
a rullblood Coos Indian of Empire.
Young Burns had been nisslng since
last Monday. Friday the father said1
he made a search for him and traced
the boy by his crutch to a lonely spot
In the woods. Coroner Wilson suspected
foiil play and held an inquest today.
The father, who is 60 years old. said
a letter the boy had dropped on a log:
led to the discovery of the body, but!
tbe latter when exhibited showed no
signs of having been out in the rain.
Killed with Shotgun.
The boy was killed with a 18 bore
shotgun. He had such a gun, but it
in missing from the house and was not
near the body. The coroner says' the
boy could not have been killed where
he was found, but that it Is clearly
indicated the body was carried 'to the
spot where the father claimed to have
found It.
The elder Burns la quiet enough
when sober, but when drinking haa the
reputation of being dangeroua The
only motive that is suggested la that
Burns followed the old savage idea of
doing away with the sickly.
The boy had his leg amputated some
years ago -becauae of tubercular
troubles. He attended the Chemawa
Indian achool, was sent back home on
account of his lung trouble, and re
cently had said he wished ha might
die.
Indian Bays Xdttle,
When brought before the coroner's
jury the old Indian would aay -but lit
tle. "He 1b my boy," he repeated to
the Jury, evidently believing that he
had a right to do as he pleased with
his own child. He would not answer
many of the questions but the state
ments he did make were so conflicting
that the Jury and officers are con
vinced the Indian killed his son, and
probably because he, was a cripple and
in ill health.
The examination the Indian was pst
under before the Jury was a severe one.
but he seemed to be indifferent as to
what tb,e white irien thought of his
acts.
Burns was taken to the county Jail
and will be held to he next grand Jury
