thence north, east and south a Sled
Springs road, then west, then south to
Pirsnip creek, and down that stream to
the valley near II. N Williams, then to

Clerk T. M. Dill read a brief history of
tho local camp, from which the follow
ing is taken:
Eagle Camp was organized one year
ago last October with a membership of
10. In May of this year, Lostine
Camp, with a membership of 14, con
solidated with Eagle ('amp. There
have been 0 members received In the
camp by transfer card, and at the
present time there are 40 beneficial
members and 4 social members, mak
ing a total of 50 members hi all.
One mendier was nuspended for en--gaging
in the sale of intoxicating
liquor, contrary to the laws of the as
sociation. The camp has issued no-
transfer cards, and there have been no
deaths lu the camp since its organiza
tion. Ihc total amount of money received
by the clerk sinco the camp was or
ganized is $497.05; xof this amount,
$253.35 was for the benefit fund, and
$244.50 for general fund. Th amount
sent to the head clerk for benefit fund
amounts to $231.50; and the amount of
per capita tax, $24.00. The amount
expended by the camp for pharapher
nalla, lights, clerk's allowance, and
Incidental expenses amounts to $101.40,
leaving a balance on baud amounting
to $23.15 in general fund.
The camp has responded to two gon

in an accident; aud one from the execu
tive council, M. W. A., to enable it to
purchase and establish, for the benefit
o' the members and relatives of the M.'
