OREGON MILITTA
IS DISGUSTED.
Their Ranks Thirtned Out by the Gov
ernment Examiners.
Portland, May 7. The examina
tion of the militiamen at Camp Mc
Kinley has been very rigid, the doctors
having thinned out the National Guard
more effectually than Spanish bullets
ever will. Only about 40 per cent, of
those enlisted have been accepted, and
in consequence those wbo have been
rejected are disgusted, and it is having
an I'ttoctupoQ those who have been
taken into the servise. They do cot
feel disposed to remain in the service
while their brothers in arms are left at
home. However, there is little prob
ability but enough will remain in the
service to make up Oregon's quota of
12 companies, and they will be a
picked lot of men as good an army as
was ever mustered into service.

Dewey Is Safe and Has Manila

Washington' May 7. The anxiety
concerning commodore Dewey was
considerably alluyed this morning by
the receipt of dispatches from him by
the navy department staring that he
has Manila at his mercy, and is in no
immediate danger, though he is in
need of soldiers to hold the city.
Dewey says that he cut the cable con
necting Manilla with the mainland.

general of the Philippines and the
Madrid government, The report that

EFFECT OF TIME.
& Woman So Old That Her Slnsclei Huna
Like Mireds on Sticks.
In the Cornhill Magazine a writer
tltus records a visit to an Egyptian
domicile Bitnated upon the Nile: "We
went into the hnt after some hesi
tation (the draf-oman whispered there
I were 'ladies' tlicrc) and found a vigor
ous old man telling his Mussulman
beads crcsr,-loggcd upon a mud bench,
and on the f.ocr bent over he fire the
oldest looking human being I ever saw
alive. Ilummies I have seen, and won
dered not that they were dead, but in
what part of her withered, desiccated
frame that old woman found sDace to
keep the stern, vital energies that lined
her grim, carved f rfcecan . .sarcjlyv
g"ffe's3."'Eire"Tb6r;ed no more ifsTng than
seaweed does dried and stretched on
paper.
Iler arms, her legs (thrust almost
into the fire) were so shrunken that
the long leathern flesh and flaccid
muscles hung round them like dangling
shreds on sticks. Round her neck
were beads of wood and round her
wrists leathern bracelets (though, to
be sure, I cannot feci certain they
were not folds of skin) and on her face
lurked not only lines, but gullies and
passnges they seemed so 4eeP ana
fallen. But for the occasional up
turned glance of her cold, unquestion
ing eye I could not have supposed her
anything else than one of the earliest
and best preserved of the remotest
queens of Egypt.
"The old man gave us lusty wel
come and sent for milk and datr-s and
filled onr pockets. lie showed us his
long spear that hung against the wall,
and told me with a proud gesture that
he had often killed his man, but more
often with the sword, and, taking me
by the shoulder, showed me fiercely
how he used to do it. lie was ninety
years old and had never been farther
from home than Assouan, and then
only once. All his sons sat and stood
around us, and in the background
Bfaiust the mud granary white teeth
glimmered and the broad, black faces
of the women shone. I asked him
what present he would like and he
asked for a little rice end a little black
coffee. All the time he clutched and
Hngcred his Moslem rosary, which,
when I admired it, he wanted me to
accept. The son came back with us to
the dahbeah and carried off the cofTce
and rice in envelopes, to which I added
a handful of cigarettes and a couple of
oranges, with particular injunctions
that one was to be given to the old
gentleman."

BIG DAY AT
IRVINGTON
PARK,
Camp McKinley Was Thronged by a
Sunday Crowd.
v
Portland, J4ft). Cress parade of
the Oregon volunteers at Camp Mc
Kinley yesterday attracted thousands
of people, and it seemed as if every
body was out to take a look at Oregon's
contribution to the army. Perfect
weather prevailed all day, which was
an incentive for people to get out of
doors had there been no special at
tractions, but the announcement that
the boys in blue were to appear on
dress parade called everybody out of
the houses. '
The throng began moving to Irving
ton at an early hour, and the street
cars were taxed to meet the demands
of those who wanted to go to the camp.
Duridg the day no less than 20,000 peo
ple visited the camp, and witnessed
drills that would have done credit to
regulars. The men have improved
wonderfully since they have been in
camp, and the manner- in which they
execute commands indicates that they
have been exceptionally well drilled.
Sevaral of the companies ar lacking
a few men since so many have failed
to stand examination, but recruits are
appearing whenever called for.

She can do her best work in the world
by turning her own talents to account
to smooth the path of a man whom she
can sway and who has all the possibili
ties before him. So when the woman
does her utmost to uee her brain in
his interest, to attend to all tiresome
details, so as to leave him as free as
possible from petty cares and worries
Then the man can concentrate the
whole of his energy in his work, and
the woman's ambition is vicariously
satisfied. She watches the friend
Wother and husband, and feels, with
a hulf-amused complacency, that bu1
for her his end would never have beer
attained. And this eternal watching
and criticism develops in woman a
greater power of knowing what men
will do in particular circumstances.
She has seen so often before that par
ticular circumstances have particulai
effects in determining the actions ol
the workers. In the stress and hurry
of the fight the man is not conscious
which way the action is tending. He ii
absorbed in doing the duty immediate
ly before him. The woman looking on
coolly can say to him: "See, this linr
Of conduct must lead to this and this
Consequence; you have only to take ad
vantage cf it and your success will be
assured."
It is therefore because woman is es
sentially a looker-on that she is so in
valuable as an adviser to man. To many
a great man the advice of an Egeria,
even an Egeria of an obviously inferioi
intellectual caliber to himself, is almost
essential. She can watch and weigh
the motives of his adversaries, she can
calculate the probable effect of his own
actions, and still more of his words
she can criticise his past decisions and
indicate the best chance cf succees in
the future. In fact, to be a woman is tc
to be a mahout a driver ofelephanta
The goad with which she steers the ani
mal is in her hand, but yet she knows,
as according to Mr. Kudyard Kipling
every mahout knows, that some day.
sooner or later, the great beast wiiJ

New York, May 10. It is believed
here that the two missing Spanish
line-of-battle ships, that haye appar
ently been lost to the world the past
three weeks, are sailing around the
horn, headed either for the Philippines
or to attack the Pacific coast. Possi
bly they may attempt to intercept the
soldiers that will be sent to Dewey's
ralief. The cutting of the South

that the two Spanish ships are in
Southern waters.
