BOY OF THE REGIMENT.
With His Dying Breath He Asked
Gar1baldi For q Coffin.


When EMO Ferretti entered actively
into the Italian war of independence
he was just seventeen. He left Parma
secretly, deserting, as it were, his fa-
ther, mother and family to fight for his
hero, Garibaldi. He walked over the
Apennines without penny in his pock-
ct and, arriving half dead at Genoa,
concealed himself on one of the ships
bound for Sicily. When at his destina-
tion he emerged and gained the nick
name of the "boy of the regiment"
From that time for some months he
fought until the day for rest came. He
was shot in the head and carried to
the hospital in a dangerous condition.
Everything possible was done for him,
but it was evident that he was trou-
bled, and at last it came out that he
could not die happy because he had
never seen his hero. 81 have fought
everywhere and sought always" he ex-
claimed, "but I have never succeeded
in seeing him. How can I die never
having caught glimpse of himf,
Another preoccupation was that he
feared he might be buried without a
coffin. Morning, noon and night his
cry was, "Let me have a coffinv' The
very day he died, by fortunate
chance, Garibaldi arrived at the hos
pital. Having heard Ferrettis story,
he stopped and spoke to him. The sick
boys expressive face lighted up and
he exclaimed: ''Now I can die happy.

THE BIG GAME OF FOOT
BALL AT CORVALLIS
NEXT SATURDAY.
Excursion Trains to run-Many
Coming From Eugene-In-
dependence and Monmouth
will Send Delegations
A1so-The Contest
Will Decide the
Oregon College
Championship.

The Oregon championship will
be won or lost in game of foot
bali to be played on OAC field next
Saturday. The game will also de-
eide the question of which Oregon
team is in line for the Northwest
championship. The contest will
be the annual game between the
University of Oregon and OAC
elevens. Two years ago the two
teams struggled through two long
halves. and at the, end, the score
stood 0 to 0. OAC was once on
the Uuiversity's two yard line, but
there moments delay at critical
juncture caused the college men to
fail by few inches of yardage, and
the ball went to the University men
who booted it from behind their
own goal post out into the field and
averted what seemed to be certain
touc hdown for OAC.
In the annual game last year, the
ball swayed backwards and for
wards in mid6eld throughout the
first half, and until near the close
of the last, when the University,
five minutes before the end of the
play managed to get the ball over
OAC's goal line for the only touch
down Of the gams, and a score of
five to OAC's o. Thus, for two
years the two teams have been very
evenly balanced in strength, and
it is possible that the same is true
of them this year. In any event,
great football will be played on
both sides aud the outcome of the
match will be watched with closest
interest in all parts of the North
west ard the Coast.
The information is that people
are coming from Portland in large
numbers, and that every town
along the westside will contribute
delegation. An excursion train
is to run from Monmouth and In
dependence, taking excursionists
home in the evening. and another
from Eugene will bring several
hundred people. All ever Benton.

CHADWICK REPORTS
RAIsULI HOLDS REINs I'm MoROC.
cos CAPITAL.
sultan Helpless to Fight Bold Bandit
I'm Mountainous COuntry--Harrts,
an Engllshman, Once Seized
BY Chief.

Washington. June 17.--Rear Admiral
Chadwick. commanding the feet of
warships at Tangier, Morocco, in a
relative to the seizure of Perdicaris
and Marley by the bandit Raisuli, says
he called with Consul General Gum
mere on the Minister of Foreign AZ
fairs at Tangier. informing him that
the squadron had been sent to mark
the sense of gravity on the part of our
government.
The report says Raisuli's adherents
numbering not more than 100 men
bearing arms occupy a region thirty or
forty miles southeast of Tangier; that
Raisuli long has been disaffected and
in state of insurgency against the
Sultans authority.
A number of his adherents are In
prison In Tangier and there are a num-
Der of Moors In the city who aid him i.
About year ago village of Raisulrs
people short distance from Tangier
was burned by government troops.
An Englishman named Harris, the
admiral adds, had a servant who was
a native of the village attacked and on
his requesting to go there after. his
family was accompanied by Harris.
Continuing the Admiral says of Harris:
He was seized and carried back
some ten or twelve miles into the
country and though many OF the tribes
men were his friends he was held to
exchange for some prisoners taken
from the tribe and held in Tangfer.
From Harris account he narrowly es-
capped murder as many of the unruIy
and frantic hillsmen knew nothing OF
him except that Sc was a Christian
and a captive,
He was. after a three weeks deten-
ton, exchanged for the II prisoners
mentioned. This was the foundation
for the present difficulty No European
Lad been seized before but this case
evidently showed the way to further
advantage and resulted in the seizure
of Perdicarts and Marley.
In conclusion the admiral says:
There can be but one outcome which
can be insisted upon, which is a yield
ing by the Sultan to Raisuli's demands
Apart from the fact that the former
knows he is powerless TO accomplish
anything againts Raisulfs people in
the mountain region of the latter.
such an attempt would be a
signal for the immediate death of the
two captives.'
