Through the courtesy of Hon. III. J.
Drane this paper has been furnished
with the complete reports of the Sur
geon- General Of the U. S. Army
on his inspection of the several army
camps, We are printing these reports
elsewhere in today's paper, because,
owing to the cosmopolitan character
OF our population, we have readers
interested in every section of the
country, who will appreciate the OBJ
servations Of the Surgeon.G General on
conditions in the camps. 1t should
be borne in mind, however, that these
reports of the Surgeon-General were
written the latter part Of November
and the first Of December, and that
there has been marked improvement
In all the camps since that time, and
q general adoption OF the recommen-
dations made. 1t will be noted that
outbreaks OF diseases were suffered
in all the camps, so that 1t would
seem that in no camp was there
grounds to claim special negligence
or unsanitary conditions. 1t seems
very difficult, if not an impossible
matter, to herd large number of
men together without some form OF
disease showing itself and causing
some loss of life before it can be sue
cessfully combated by sanitary ar
rangements or other protective meas
ures. In every camp it seems now
that the various maladies have been
checked and reasonably good health
prevails.

FIFTY BOYS AND GIRLS CLUBS
AT WORK IN COUNTY, LEADER
EVANS REPORTS.

There are SO clubs with a total
membership of 451 boys and girls at
work in Thurston county this sum-
mer in the various food production
and conservation activities, County
Club Leader E. H. Evans reports. He
calls them the county's food produc-
ton army" and declares they are
lust as important in their sphere as
the soldiers at Camp Lewis"
The canning clubs lead in number
but give way to the garden clubs in
membership, there being II canning
clubs with $50 members, and IA gar
den clubs with 1913. There is one
cow club with five members, one
sheep club with five, six poultry clubs
with 38, four rabbit clubs with 80,
and seven pig. clubs with 80 members.
Supervisor Evans hopes to stimu-
late interest in the work and keep it
going at top speed throughout the
summer, and is particularly anxious
to increase the number of pig clubs.
He says that the conference of club
leaders is to be held about July 10,
when the federal expert, NJ. d. But
Ter, and the state leader, James
Green, will be here. Definite an
nouncement as to date and place of
the meeting will be made later.

December 1st. Colonel Ebey was
this day directed by the Collector to
make a strict examination of the
steamer Beaver" which entered in
ballast. On his return he reported
that she had no ballast on board ex-
cept her Goals, but that he found a
considerable quantity of Indian
trading goods" amounting to at least
$500. He also reported that before
the vessels had come to Olympia (the
port of entry) they had anchored at
Nisqually, landing six passengers,
and remained there some Is hours,
boats constantly passing between
them and shore.
On an examination of the cargo of
the MARY Dare" she was found to
have on board a contraband package
of refined sugar weighing 23O
pounds. BY the 103d section of the
act of March I'd, 1893, refined sugar
cannot be imported in packages of
less than 600 pounds weight, under
penalty of forfeiture of the sugar and
the vessel in which it is imported.
The Collector therefore ordered the
seizure of both vessels, which was
done accordingly this afternoon.
First Term of U. S. Court.
The act just narrated was the &C.
casion for a special term of the
United States district court of the
Third judicial district of Oregon, in
admiralty, which was held at Olym-
pia January goth, 1852, and was the
first federal court held in this town.
We again recur to the diary:
January 18th, 1852.-1n the after
noon Hon. William Strong, Judge Of
the Third judicial district, arrived,
accompanied by Simon B. Marye and
David Logan, Esquires, from Port
land. Mr.. Marye is the attorney of
the Hudson's Bay company and
Logan acts for the U. S. district at
torney, in the seizure cases. We
soon learned from the party that the
U. S. marshal had, under the act of
March 8, 1847, "to reduce costs and
expenses of proceedings in admiral
ty," accepted bond in the sum of
$4,000 for the MARY Dare" and
her cargo.

22d inst.-A motion is made in
court to compel the Collector to pro-
coed. No defense was interposed in
the libel against the MARY Dare"
and the sugar, except the notice by
DR.. Tolmie of petition to the secre-
tary of the treasury, praying a re-
mission of the forfeiture. Judge
Strong at once resolved himself into
commissioner to take the testimony
and certify it up to the treasury de-
partment.
/ Poe returned without his prisoner.
reporting Stuart as having left Mis-
qually in large canoe for Fort Vic

The proceedings seem to sum up in
this: The trading goods Of the
Beaver" are seized; the Beaver" is
not liable for the acts of her late
master (now a fugitive); the MARY
Dare" and sugar are bonded in 3d.

Definite measures to limit retail
