BY D'Loss Sutherland

During the downpour OF rain,
Col. Inglis called an officers as
sembly today and gave the Off
GERS the first serious talk Of the
present campaign.
The ceremony was impressive.
The colonel talked low and the
usual twinkle and half smile that
usually marks his face was alb
sent.
He impressed them with the
serious obligations to their gov
eminent, to their state, and 10
their troops.
He insisted that their health
and general welfare must be
watched above all.
Remember Dependents.
Orders were issued to the cap
tains of the Seattle companies for
list of married men and others
who had person dependent on
| them. TIL sse names will be sent
to various Seattle commercial or
CARNATIONS and the families of
the soldiers will be looked after.
Capt. Ross, camp adjutant, said
that practically every troop had
been equipped. The ordn lnce sup
plies, including the arms and am
munition, are expected at the ar
senal today.
"All of the troops have been
federalized," Capt. Ross said.
There is a possibility they may
be put through a formal muster
later on, but for the present the
new oath is sufficient"
Adj. Gen. Thompson arrived at
camp today. 1t was not learned
at late hour, If he had any par
ticular instructions regarding the
movement of the troops.
Rumors that troop b End COM
pany A, signal corps, have been
ordered to proceed to the border
as soon as they receive their
mounts were dispelled today when
Capt. Palmer and staff officers
of the adjutant's camp were ques-
toned.
| Capt. Palmer said that there
would be thousand different ru-
mors circulated within the next
few days, but as yet ne had no
definite knowledge when the
troop would move. At present
the men are more or less incapa ci-
tated from recent shots If small
pox antitoxine.
The field infirmary, consisting
of four officers and "a men, mas
pitched tents near troop B.
All to Full Strength.
Reville awakened the entire
camp shortly after daybreak and
one of the busiest days of the
camp began. A steady downpour
did not effect the activity.
Two infantry companies from
Spokane and machine gun COM
pany arrived at Cosgrove shortly
after o'clock today. They inn
mediately put up their tents. All
companies were recruited to full
fighting strength.
There is considerable rivalry
between the various companies as
to the patriotism shown when
they left their various homes. The
Seattle troops say $4,000 persons
lined the streets when they
marched to the train. A news
paper man said that Seattle for
got itself and went wild.
North Yakima troops say their
march to the station was over a
bed of roses.
Enthusiastic citizens took up
donations and contributed 1900
to the mess funds of the two Yak
ina companies.
Centralia did not let its boys
go unforgetten. More than 5000
was contributed OF the ness fund
OF company M. This oody, too,
marched down the streets to pa
triotic airs amidst shower of
roses.

CARRANZA GETS
u. s. ULTIMATUM

WASHINGTON, ID. c.,
June 2G.-An ultimatum de-
mandiDg the immediate re-
lease of the American troop
ers taken prisoner at Carri-
zal IL ON its way to the Car
rama government today.
1t notified Carranza that the
U. S. expects an early statement
of Carranza' intentions.
1t discloses the fact that the
state department yesterday re-
ceived a communication from the
de facto government stating that
direct orders to attack American
soldiers moving otherwise than
toward the border caused the
Carrizal fight.
These orders were issued by
Carranza to Gen. Trevino and by
him shown to Pershing.
The note constructs the Mexi-
can communication as formal
avowal of deliberately hostile
action against the L. S. forces in
Mexico, and intimates that force
will be met with force.

F,y,no War Horse.

A correspondent Of the Milan "Cor.
riere della Sera" reports the following
story:
An Italian lieutenant recently rode
through one of the villages on the
Isonzo front. He dismounted before
the temporary quarters of the com.
mander of his regiment and tied his
horse to tree. When he entered the
house he heard the humming poise of
large Austrian shell and moment
later terrible explosion followed.
The shell had struck small building
on the opposite side Of the street. An
immense cloud of smoke and dust rose
and when It disappeared the horse Of
the officer was gone.
THE air pressure caused by the ex
plosion had lifted the animal from
the ground and thrown 1t on the fat
roof Of a nearby house, where 1t was
found almost unhurt. 1t was no easy
Job to get the horse to the street
again. as this could only be accom-
plished with the aid Of large crane"

among some Of his rural relatives last
week. There happened to be farmer

farmer hesitated a while and then put
one end OF the instrument to his ear.
To the surprise of the Columbus man
the deaf farmer replied. when asked
in tone hardly above q whisper.
Can you hear what l say?"
Nope. l can't hear q word. These
things don't do me any good"
Would you acknowledge 1t II they

in a still lower tone Of voice. and the
answer came back promptly: Ger

love! He would not trust even one

He set the door of the vestry open

Origin Of Grain a. Measure.

The grain, as q measure of weight,

weight Of grain Of wheat. A statute

that 80 grains Of wheat. taken from
the middle Of the ear and well dried.
should make pennyweight. IL of
which should make an ounce. while
IL ounces were to make pound.
TIE pound. therefore. consisted OF
1850 grains. But several centuries
later the pennyweight was divided into
"a grains. which makes the troy
pound $3.50 grains. The pennyweight
was the exact weight Of silver pen.
