Prominent Ironworker Dead. Joseph Zimmerman, the well-known foundry man, died at his residence in Portland last week. He was formerly a resident of this county, and had many friends here. He crossed the plains to California in 1854 with E. Woodward, of this city, and worked in the mines of that state for several years. Coming to Oregon in 1870, lie settled on a farm near Philomath for a short time, afterwards moving with his family to Corvallis. He was em ployed for a long time as a blacksmith in J. T. Phillips' shop, where he had the reputation of being a most excel lent workman. About five years ago he went to Oswego and btcame iden tified with the iron works at that place. His wife and four children sur vive him. The deceased was a promi nent member of the I. O. O. F., and the funeral services were conducted by that order at Oswego. The harvest in Benton county is over. The farmer whose wheat is not threshed and safely cared for by this time has no one to blame but himself for any less or damage by late rains. The price of wheat has taken another tumble and is now only 60 cents in Corvallis. Notwithstanding the drop in price, more wheat has been hauled to the mills and warehouses in this city this week than at any time during the season. We counted thirty-eicht wagons waiting to unload at the Ben ton county mills and Cauthcrn's warehouse at 11:30 Tuesday morning This does not include" Fischer's mill and Samuel's warehouse, who are prob ably receiving an equal amount. Bound Over. Last Monday Geo. F. Houck appeared in Justice Davis' court to answer to a charge of sheep stealing,, the warrant being issued on the complaint of C. L. Ma- lone, of Alsea, who charged Houck with stealing about fifty head of sheep from his pasture about two weeks ago. The missins stock was found in Houck's field and the evidence brought out at the preliminary examination was deemed sufficient to warrant his bound over to appear at the November term of circuit court, with bonds fixed at $1000. These were furnished and Houck released from custody. Capt. It. F. Guilliams has just re turned from Alaska and was in town this week. Since being in Corvallis last he has been ou five cruises in the Behring sea and to Japan. He was with the Kate and Anna when seized for poaching, and in consequence had an experience with Alaska prisons and British men-of-war. He is sanguine over the sealing business, and left Tuesday for the east, where he will purchase a schooner for a company formed in Portland to take to Alaskan waters next season. Larceny of Clothing. About wo weeks ago the residence of Joseph Hazlet, about eight miles north of this city, was entered during the ab sence of the family and a suit of clothing taken. Sheriff Osburn was notified and last Monday the thief was caught at Dallas. He was brought before H. G. Davis, justice of the peace, and gave his name as John Dove. He was bound over to appear before the grand jury for larceny in a dwelling-house with bonds fixed at 1500, in default of which he was im mured in the county biwtile. Salem Steam Laundry. TV M, Hamilton, the agent for . the Salem steam laundry, has decided to locate permanently in this city. He has al ready established a good business for that company in this city, which bids fair to become constantly larger. Their work has never failed . to give entire satisfaction, while their charges are as low as is compatible with first class work. Clothing called for and delivered free of charge. EVERYBODY TO THE RESCUE. Twenty dollars saved by calling on J. Wm. Will if you intend to bay a Standard, Davis or other sewing ma chine. Call and see that it is true. '-ELE33ATION OF COLUMBUS DAY. In obedience to 'an act of congress, the president on July 21st issued a proclamation recommending that Oc tober 21st the 400th anniversary of the discovery of America be celebrated everywhere in America by suitable ex ercises in the schools. A uniform program for every school in America, to le used on Columbus day, similta neously with the dedicatory exercises of the World's Columbian Exposition grounds at Chicago will give an im pressive unity to the popular celebra tion. Accordingly the superintendents of education last February accepted the plan of the Youth's Companion for this national public school celebration. They instructed the executive commit tee to prepare an official program of exercises for the day. The schools of Corvallis will employ the holiday in the manner suggested, and the follow ing is the program furnished us by Principal C. Elton Blanchard: The schools will assemble in the various rooms in the usual manner at the usual time, 9 a. m. Soon after this it is expected that the army veter ans, both blue and gray, will arrive. together with the Marine band, of Corvallis, visitors and citizens. These will be met at the entrance of the building by an escort of pupils, and conducted to positions in the assembly hall. Following this the grades will be marched into positions and. the programme proper begins. Prayer, Rev. Kantner. Reading the proclamation, by the principal of the school. "Song of Columbus Day," air,Lyons. vote: Programs will be supplied to all visitors with the entire song thereon, and it is hoped all will sing with spirit. Address, "The Meaning of Four Centuries," by a pupil. The Ode, "Columbia's Banner," by a pupil. Short addresses, by distinguished visitors and citizens. National song, by the whole assem bly. At the signal the schools will be marched to the front of the building ana mere iorni m a hollow square, keeping in perfect order and line. Vis uors win tuen touow ana arrange themselves inside the square. Raising the flig, by the committee of vererans. Salute to flag, by the pupils. At signal from teacher each grade will in order turn, hands to side, face to flag, and with right hand give mili- tarySalute, repeating in concert,slowly, I pledge allegiance to my flig and the republic for which it stands; one nation indivisible with liberty and justice for all." At the instant of the last salute the whole company will break into the song, "My Country 'Tis of Thee." At ils close the drum will sound and j all grades will return to their rooms, Visitors can then disperse or inspect the building at pleasure. When every thing is in order pupils will be excused for the day in the regular way, and cannot return to rooms unless with parents or by special permission. it is noped that the people may take an interest in the public school celebration, the event of the centuiy, Some prominent visitors have been in vited, and a pleasant and instructive occasion is anticipated. REPAIRS NEEDED. Sidewalks in nearly all parts of the city are sadly in need of repairs. The' dry weather of the past summer has caused the boards to warp and nails have been drawn from their places so that they project sufficiently to catch and injure foot-wear, and it is a common occur rence to see a stranger stub his toe and then pass on with a not al ways smothered malediction on side walks in general and ours in particular. Somebody has suggested that the ladies of the coffee club procure hammers and nails and put the walks in proper condition. Well, we know very well that if they should take the matter in hand they would whoop 'er up with such energy that we would have first- class sidewalks in an incredibly short time. The coffee club always acts without unnecessary delay, which is more than can be said for a number of other people. Have you seen those handsome new reed rockers at L. Welker & Co.'s 1 If not, step in and take a look at them, and while there inspect their stock of furniture, wall paper, window shades. They have just received a splendid supply of picture frames, and- will be glad to entertain you by showing you through their establishment. - Sent to the Asylum. Lorenzo Boleni, a native of Switzerland, was brought to this city from the Alsea country last week, and. after examina- lion was adjudged insane and taken I to the asylum at Salem. He is about 42 years of age. I CITY COUNCIL. PROCEEDING OF THK REGULAR SEPTEMBER SESSION HELD IN THIS CITY MONDAY EVESINO.

Some two or three weeks since, it will be remembered, Fred Root drew $275 of his wife's money from the bauk and took an uncermonious departure for parts unknown leaving his wifo and child almost destitute i and without support. He spent all the ' money and last Friday ha returned to his wife and begged to be taken again into her affections. She very sensibly refused to have anything to do with him and notified the officers of his presence in the city, but before the latter could reach the scene Fred again decamped. This week it was learned that be was iu Salem pas-ting under the name of John Fritz, and on Wednesday Sheriff Osburn went to that city armed with a warrant for the fellow's arreat and found him working on the street's. Thurs day he arrived here with his prisoner, who will be given a hearing this afternoon. A business man laden with care. Lacking trousers, was plunged in despair; Forty-six, thirty-four Was the size that he wore. But he found them at Kline, s by the pair.

The Oxonian of the 9th inst. contains a notice of the death of Sheridan Vanhoosen, of this city, and ascribes the excessive uss of cigarettes as the cause The physicians who attended him in his illness, Drs. Appel white and Pernot, inform us that this is untrue; the true cause of his death was over-exertion in the har- vest held, further aggravated by pneumonia. The Oregonian is in error when it makes the statement, and it is but simple iustice to the memory of the young man that it should be cor rected. Kindergarten. Miss Ida Booth, of Newport, wishes to inform the people of Corvallis that she will open a kindergarten and private school in Bunting Irvine's property on Sept. 19, For further information apply to Mrs. Dr. Thompson, Rev. Geo. F. Plummer, or at K. Graham's drug store. For Sale. Two yoke of fine Slick Horn cattle, well broken, good leaders for a logging ' team, can be handled by a child.

They perpetually dose themselves with purgatives totally without virture as alerative of livet trouble. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is th successful candidate for the people's choice aud yet, popular and well known as it it 1. there are unfortunates who keep on trying the drastic remedies of former days. It is to the intelligent portion of the public that the well known and long tried properties of the Bitters appeal. Reason should be guided by experience, in the matter of medi cation. "The best guide to our feet is the lamp of experience" said a great patriot of the early revolutionary period, and the ex clainatioa is pregnant with truth. For over a third of a century the Bitters daily has met with the indorsement of people suffer ing from liver complaint, malaria, constipa tion, rheumatism, debility and troubles ac companied by dyspepsia. Latterly it has declared itself and been thoroughly approved as a remedy for "la grippe." NOTICE OF NEW SURVEY.

JOHN H. SHUPE, Register. A. M. Crawford. Receiver. Not Coming Forward Very Fast. Col. Wedlerf collector of internal revenue, states that many of the notices in Chinese aud English which he had posted up giving the Chinese to understand that he was ready to commeuce registering them, have been torn down, and so far not a Chinaman has called to be registered, and he doesn't ex pect to see one even with a telescope for some time. He is uow amusing himself iu his leisure moments in figuring how much it will cost the United States to catch, corral, and carry to China the 107,000 Chinese in this country, llu; expense ot 200 vessels to carry them "10.000 miles away" can be easily figured, but the expense of 10,000 de puty marshals to run them in, aud the ex pense of lodging them and feeding them till they are gotten rid of, no man can estimate, Arithmetic fails, algebra falls short and in tegral calculus is to tiresome too be used.

Deafness is caused by an iuflamed condition of the mucous lining i of the eustachian tube. When this tube is I inflamed you have a rumbling sound or im ! perfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, deafness is the result, and unless the inflamation can betaken out and this tube re stored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by cat irrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous sur faces. We will give one-hundred dollars for any case of deafness (caused by catarrh) that canuot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars; free. F. J. CHENEY & CO., Toledo.
