Big Chances & Big Profits
Who Should Speculate
and Who Should Not,

Do you advise speculation? That depends
upon circumstances. If you can afford to take
big chances you are justified in backing your
Judgment. Do not speculate with the money
you need for the necessaries of life. To lose
might embarrass you, and the fear of loss,
under such circumstances, might impair your
confidence in your own opinions. Loss of
se1-confidence is forerunncr of failure. IT,
however, you have money that you can afford
TO risk, and ideas and information i'm which
you have confidence, back your Judgment

in the First En-
gugement

Kansas City. Mo-, July 27.-The Star
to-day says:
The tragic scene which attended
the death of Corporal Leonard F.
Hayes, Americas only traitor in the
Philippines, was witnessed by Ser
geant George A.. LaMarsh of Company
H, goth Kansas volunteers, now in this
city. Sergeant La Marsh went to the
Philippines with the I'd Oregon regi-
ment IA months ago. Corporal Hayes,
he says. became enamored of a Fill
pino beauty and. deserving his COM
rades, was placed in charge of Fill
Pine battery with the rank of lieuten-
ant. He met his death, almost in the
first engagement in which he fought
against his country. Speaking of this
battle. Sergeant La Marsh says:
I'VE had charged the Filipinos,
driving them back and killing and
wounding many. Among the wounded
on the field was Hayes. He was rec
ognized by several of the boys One
Of the soldiers OF the I'd Oregon drove
his bayonet through the body of the
traitor and lifted him up above his
head and held him there while the
soldiers shot him. The body was
thrown into a trench and buried with
several dead Filipinos. We would
have treated him worse If we had
known him."

Three of the Italians Lynched in LOUISE

Washington, July 27.-The state depart
ment has received from Governor Foster
of Louisiana a preliminary report upon
the killing of the five Italians at Wicks-

ance is the governors statement that he

statement is directly the reverse of the
advices that came to the state department
through the Italian consular officer at
New Orleans, who sent agents into the
country to secure information on this
point Governor Foster records in his re-
port an earnest disposition on the part of
the sheriff of Madison county, where the
affair occurred, to bring the perpetrators
Of the killing TO justice and TO lay all Of
the facts before the grand jury of the
county. That body Is not at present in

Oregonians Will Decide Whore They will
BE Mustered Out.
San Francisco, July 27.-It is yet un-
certain where the Oregon regiment will
be mustered out General Beebe OF the
oregon National Guard has been max
Ing an effort to have them mustered out
at home, or at least to return to Port
land in regimental formation.
General Shafter telegraphed to the
war department asking IL this could be
done, and to-day a reply was received
which. after reviewing them, says:
Orders to have the regiment mus
tered out in San Francisco will stand
unless the regiment by majority vote
should decide to be mustered out at
Vancouver barracks. Many Of the peo-
pie of the state want the regiment to
return as an organization. In meeting
the express wishes Of the regiment, al
ready approved by the secretary of
war, this can be done only as the off,
GERS and men agree to it. The law re-
quires that arms and all property be
turned in on mastering out The acting
secretary of war directs that so far,
orders already given and the law and
regulations will allow, you are to ar
range to meet the wishes Of the people
OF the state as expressed by General
Beebe. H c. CORBIN
"Adjutant General"
IL the men are mustered out here the
government, of course, has not power
to enforce them to return to Oregon in
regimental formation.
