YOUTHFUL SOLDIER SAYS
SHOOTING KEPT HIM AWAKE.
Master Francis Llman, aged 7, Who
Accompanied Company L to Amer
ican Lake, Says He la Glad o Get
Home Presented Picturesque Ap
pearance. "I couldn't sleep much at American
lake, there was so much hootin'"
said Francis Lyman, the youthful mas
cot of Company L who attended the
annual encampment at American lake,
hut who returned home with his fath
er and a portion of the company yes
terday, "and I am glad to get home."
This was the estimate of the Amer
ican lake encampment given to the!
East Oregonlan today by the lad who
was a prominent figure in Company
L quarters during the meeting of the
militiamen at the encampment.
"Didn't you like the manoeuvers?"
was asked the young mascot.
"The what? Naw. There was too
much shootln', I liked to help cook
and see the drills, hut I didn't like
the shootln'. I couldn't sleep; the
noise of the shootln' was always ring
ing in my ears."
The little lad, who is but 7 years
of age, was selected by Company L as
Its mascot at the summer encamp
ment and he was the youngest soldier
among the EOOO. He was dressed
In the regular khaki service uniform,
with hat, revolver, belt and all, and
presented a most soldierly figure
marching with his company.

vide for some of Its fttfure require
ments in timber and cross ties, the
Pennsylvania railroad forestry depart
ment has completed Its forestry plant-
ing for this year. It set out 625,000
trees. These make up to the present
time 2,425.000 trees set out by the
railroad since it undertook tree plant
ing upon a comprehensive scale.
Economically to prosecute tree
planting operations on a large scale
has necessitated the importation of
much European plant material, whici
owing to the degree of perfection to
which the European foresters have
brought their work and the cheapness
of labor, can be purchased at a much
lower price than In America. This
year the Pennsylvania railroad im
ported 209,000 seedlings, of which all
not large enough to be planted in their
permanent sites have been set out in
transplant rows in the new forest nur
sery established this year by the com-
pany at Morrisville, Pa., Just across
the Delaware river from Trenton.
In the seed beds were sown this
year 25 bushels of acorns and nuts,
370 pounds of other hard wood seeds
and 75 pounds of conifer seed. In
addition 300,000 seedlings were per
manently planted In land belonging to
the company. Trees which are not
suitable for timber production are be
ing grown for ornament.
The company has this year began
the propagation of ornamental trees
and plants for beautifying its prop
erty and intends to develop a large
amount of shrubbery and hedges for
the protection and ornamentation of
the station grounds and rights of way.
This work will be continued until all
station grounds and ui.octupled spaces
of the right of way are parked.

UMATILLA INDIAN'S
DRINK CIRCUS FIREWATER.
Garden City Jul! Was Filled to Over,
flowing With Indian Residents ot
Unintilln County Who Went to See
Circus and Remained to Drink.
ieenuso of the fact that yesterday
was circus day, and harvesters from
all parts of the surrounding country
were here to see the elephants, the
police force had all the business It
could transact In a single day, the
cells and corridors having been
crowded almost to the limit last night
when darkness fell over the valley,
says the Walla Walla Union. The
fireworks started Tuesday night,
when a number of transients became
over-charged with booze, and from
that time until early this morning,
officers with offenders In charge re
ported every few moments at the sta
tion. So frequent did the visits of the
blue-coats become, that It was found
advisable yesterday evening to liber.
ate two of the men behind the bars
in order to make room for mors.
Accordingly J. Stanton, who was ar
rested yesterday morning for being
drunk and disorderly, was released
on 13 bonds to appear before Justice
Huffman today. D. D. Miller, who
was arrested yesterday afternoon at
3 o'clock, on the same charge, was
released on $2.50 bonds, and promis
ed to be good.
Among those who were given lodg
ing last night were Willie Maycutche.
an Indian from Athena; J. Price, In-
dlan, rendlcton
Tom Loy, Indian,
Umatilla; Lee Evine; nameless In
dian; . Jim White, Indian, witness;
Charles Bowers, selling liquor to In
dian; Archie Allard, disorderly con
duct; Bill Hale, John Donnier, disor
derly conduct; James Brisbols.
It was noticeable that nearly all
of the offender were from Umatilla
county, where the recent elections
banished the sale of intoxicating
liquor. The large number of men
who came to Walla Walla yesterday
fj see the circus, were in almost every
case well supplied with money, and
having been "dry" for several weeks
proceeded at once to take on some
liquid ballast with the result that the
majority of them spent the night In
the city Jail.
F. S. rVANHOE WAS VICTIMIZED.
(Continued from Paw 1.)
on the phonograph. Thinking that
he was going to give them the rec
ord of instructions which he left for
his stenographer the evening before,
he turned the machine on.
But he had not reckoned with the
practical Inkers of La Grande, for
during the night a number of friends
of th major had raided his office
and had talked into a fresh cylinder
some of the most unprintable and out
rageous language that It was possible
to conceive of, and when the machine
was started for his lady friends In
stead of his own gentle voice giving
Instructions to his stenographer he
was horrified to hear a strange voice
begin on what was Introduced as "A
pure and pathetic poem addressed
and dedicated to the Amalgamated
Order of Hot Air Artists," and before
he could stop the machine a few lines
of the unspeakable pnem had been
repeated for the anxious listeners.
It Is not necessary to say that Major
Ivanhoe now takes his new cylinders
Into the back room and "tries them
out" before Inviting any lady friends
t listen to his voice reel off Instruc
Hons to his stenographer.

The next church building to t

IRRIGATION FOR CHILE.
Arlcslim Wells IroiOHed to Supply
Water in the North.
Consul Alfred A. Wlnslow, of Val
paraiso, reports that the government
of Chile is giving the water supply
question for the arid regions In the
northern part of Chile, considerable
attention, adding:
The government now has a project
under consideration to see what can
be done by way of irrigation by
means of artesian wells in that region
It is recognized that all those barren
plains need to make them the garden
spots of the world Is moisture. For
'that reason foundings are to be made
In that part of the country to deter
mine what the subterranean supply
may be.
Julio Duplaquet, a government en
gineer, has been designated by the
minister of public works to first make
Investigations In the vicinity of Copla
po, where it Is also proposed to sup
ply the city with artesian water. Co
piapo is a city of about 12,000 Inhab
itants, and is situated in the arid re
gions about 850 miles north of Val
paraiso. Rain has not fallen In that
part of Chile for ages, and the few
streams In that part of the country
are fed by the melting snow on the
west slopes of the Andes. The geo
logical formation Indicates that there
must be subterranean streams flowing
from the same source of the Pacific
ocean.
