A lady from Corvallis, says the Lincoln Xeader, made a trip over the bar on' the tug last Monday, and among the contri butions to the fishes were a set of false teeth and a veil.

Dr. Farra was called and seduced the fracture and the little patient is now getting on nicely. VLast week Capt Fred Blumhart sbip--ped bis new gasoline launch to the bay and its builder, Mr." August Fiscber, ac companied the little craft and had charge of the machinery on her trial trip. The Lincoln Leader says Mr. Fischer made a -trip to Toledo with her and she made ex cellent speed. Fred has named her "Ro relda."

There will be 110 Sewell Bert P. Van Cleve was in Corvallis this week and was noticed most of the time creeping around the streets avoiding everybody who bears any resemblance to Poor Lo. Bert bad a little difficulty at Newport with an Indian, whom he worst ed, and the next day was forced to tackle the same fellow and bis friend, but that night took the train for Corvallis. He was afraid the red men would not main; tain that parity and wanted to leave the country before his stock depreciated. Mrs. C. H. Pearse said good-bye to her friends in Corvallis last week, and Thurs day left for the bay to visit until the de parture of the next steamer,' when she will take passage for her new home, San Francico. Her husband is in the em ploy of a large hardware firm in the Biy City and expects to remain their perma nently, consequently it was deemed best for the family to take up their abode in that city. Both Mr. and Mrs. Pearse leave a large circle of friends in Corvallis who wish them well. KBADT FOR WAR. The annual conference of the M. E. Church, south, convenes one week from to-day at Dallas. The Corvallis church will be represented at the meeting by Rev. P. A. Moses. Rev. Moses has been in charge of the work here for the past three years and it is possible that the conference will appoint him to some new field of labor. During his residence here he has worked faithfully in the cause of Christianity, and has made many friends who will regret to see him and his esti mable family leave Corvallis. Wilson Scott, of Philomath, last Satur day purchased the Albany tannery at re ceiver's sale, and will take charge of the business at once. Speaking of the trans action the . Albany Herald says: "The property was bid in by Wilson Scott, of the firm of Felger & Scott, tannerymen ef Philomath. The price was f 1,250. Mr, Scott has sold his interest in the Philo math tannery to Mr. Felger, and will re move to Albany. Mr. John T. Shea will be associated with bim and together they will rebuild and improve the Albany tan nery plant and operate on a much larger basis. Both are experienced tannery men. There is a good field for a tannery here, and the enterprise will certainly prove a success." Henry Stewart had a miraculous es cape from instant death while enroute from Chitwood on the excursion train last Sunday evening. He had been over on the Yaquina river' catching crawfish and was accompanied by bis wife. Be ing fatigued frdm the day's sport, he fell asleep and. rested in the arms of Morpeus until Philomath was passed, when his wife awakened him in order to collect the fish baskets and other luggage. PassJ ing through the train in a sort of stupor he lost his balance when on the platform of the baggage car, and fell to the ground. At the time, the train was run ning at 30 miles an hour rate and every one on board expected to find that the accident bad resulted fatally. .He was picked up in an uuconcious condition, but was still breathing, and aside from a severe scalp wound, did not appear to be Republicans of Benton are getting ready to preach McKinleyism and return ing prosperity. They understand that strength comes from organization and on Friday night they met to organise a Ben ton county McKinley club. - About 100 had signed the call and there was a large attendance of prominent citizens. E. R. Lake was selected as temporary chairman and J. Fred Yates as temporary secretary, A committee consisting of B. W. Johnson L. G. Altman and Barnhart, were appointed on permanent organization While they were out deliberating, Judge Kelsay discussed briefly the general pur poses and principles of the republican party. The committee reporting, the consti tution and by-laws recommended by them were adopted. The constitution provides that all who believe in the elec tion of McKinley and will vote for him are eligible to membership. It was not the intention to make it a strictly parti zin organization, but to organize 011 wide lines, so as to give democrats, who are ; holding their tariff and other views in temporary abeyance, an opportunity to unite with republicans for sound money and stable government. The permanent officers of ' the club elected, were: E. R. Lake, president; Emory Allen, "vice-president; J. Fred Yates," secretary; Willard S. Linville, treasurer. There was only one contest in the election of officers, there being good natured rivalry for president. . Mr. Lake and George Waggoner were both placed in nomination, the first ballot resulted in no election, Mr. Lake receiving but one vote more than Mr. Waggoner. The lat- I ter then withdrew and moved that Mr, Lake be elected unanimously, and the motion carried. Hon. J. B. Irvine was called for and was introduced as the "father of the Times." - He gave a rousing and sensible extemporaneous address and aroused the enthusiasm of his hearers. The club then. adjourned to meet the first Friday in September. It is the intentiou of the club to carry on a brisk campaign, and by literature and speakers awaken the enthusiasm of Benton county in behalf ot a return to that governmental management, which for thirty years secured to . the people of the United States unparalleled prosperity. Mr. Lake, the president of the club, was elected last June as joint-representative of Benton and ' Lincoln counties by a handsome majority over a fusion candi date. He is popular and a very active, energetic worker. He is a practical fat mer and a thorough business man, and he will see that the McKinley end of the campaign in Benton county does not lag. The other officers are representative and responsible citizens, who will serve the club well. The burden of the work will of course devolve largely upon the secre tary, Mr. Yates, whose capabilities have already been attested in similar work. ; Among the speakers the club expects to induce to address Benton county voters are, Senator Mitchell, Congressman Ellis, Congressman Hermann, Gen.

Fortunately no bones were brokeu and with proper care be will be at work as usual in a few days. A number of Corvallis young ladies gave a ilouemian pienic one day last week, procuring a boat they rowed down the river about two and a half miles be low town, and discovering' a secluded nook, which they believed to be - beyond the reach of bold male men, proceeded to enjoy themselves in true Bohemian fashiou. A newspaper reporter on pleas ure bent, also rowed down the river and in an evil moment bis attention was at tracted by the light from acampfire. Hoping to secure an item the luckless fellow landed and quietly made his way toward the light. Suddenly emerging from the willow thicket bis gaze was riv eted upon a somewhat startling living picture. A few feet in front of him blaz ed a camp-fire," while seated and reclin ing atout it were a number ot Corvallis' most dignified young ladies, daintily puff ing balm-root smoke through their ruby lips. Several pairs of hose hanging about on the bushes told their own story. The "scribbler" was unable to repress an ejaculation of sorrowful surprise. Con sequently was discovered and being out- numbered seven to one, wnen threatened with immediate drowning, was forced to swear by the most bloodcurdling oaths to never tell. After having given him a portion of their sumptious lunch, the young ladies restored , tneir prisoner to liberty, they themselves returning to towu by moonlignt. sentative McCall, of Massachusetts, from whom Bryan borrowed, without giving credit, the figures of speech "crown of thorns" and "cross of gold." - Auction Sale. : Wait for the big auction sale of Household furniluie, carputs, etc, week from Saturday.

The Californians remained only short time when they started from whence they came, and upon reaching Monroe, Mr. Post sought work in order that he might supply bis family with the necessaries of life. Soon after securing employment, however, he was taken sick and they drove to Corvallis and camped for several days on the flat south 01 town. Mrs. Post endeavored to find work, but was unsuccessful, and then an effort was made to dispose of their team and wagon in order that the wolf might be kept from the door, but this plan also failed, and they were compelled to ask assist ance.

A couple, whose long journey ia this vale of tears might presumably have rendered them proof against the little naked boy's contrivances, were recently sorely wounded, and only the balm of marriage sufficed to allay the smart Last Sunday at the residence of the bride in this city, Mr. AI. Fuller, of Harrisburg, and Mrs. Louisa E. R. Henklo, wore united in marriage, Kev. P. A. Moses officiating. The bride is in her 74th year while the groom is ten years younger. Both are well-to-do peo ple, and are well and favorably known in their respective neighborhoods. This is Mrs. Fuller's third experience as a bride while her husband is once a widower. The couple have been acquainted about two weeks, but both are Free Thinkers and their- mutual belief atoned for lack of personal acquaintance. CASTORIA Sunday the outing season at Newport wag at its height. Two hundred and fifty valley folk went over on the excursion for a day's outing on the beach, and with the hundreds of pleasure seekers already at the coast, the crowd was swelled until the. hotels and ret' tau rants were taxed to their utmost capacity, At the other resorts complaints are heard because of the lack of excitement and at tractions, but at Yaquina everyone seems satisfied. Most summerors go to the coast for rest, and soon fall into a state of lethargy from which they are not anxious to be arous ed. During the past week the teachers' in stituto furnished four days' entertainment, and with the soldiers, the deep-sea fishing and the surf bathing, everyone's sp&ra time is pleasantly employed. 1 he band nt Newport this year is an ex eel lent one, composed of members of the Portland military band. Tbcir orchestra is especially good, and dances are given every Wednesday and Saturday nights, which are well attended. The one given last Saturday night brought forth many handsome gowns adorning pretty women. As usual, the male element was sadly lacking and at a premium. The tug "Favorite" takes parties out over the bar for a ride or for fishing almost every day, and on Sundays makes regular excur sions down the coast, and those trips are at ways successful as 'pleasure journeys. Oc casionally some few on board succumb to the swinging motion or the boat, but tbe sea is usually so smooth that sea sickness is un- thought of. The 2nd Regt. Oregon National Guards, came out from Newport Monday. Four companies were represented, but only about sixty men "took in" the two-weeks encamp ment. However, there were enough of tbe brass buttoned boys to splendidly illustrate tho almost skillful deficiency of the 2nd Regt. in the art of soldiering. The men carried their guns with studied carelessness and each had his. individual preference as to the proper angle of tho gun at "right shoulder arms." In battalion drill the independent and origi nal step and attitude of each individual mem ber ware marvels to the onlookers. How sixty men, in such close proximity to each other. could each execute maneuvers so totally dif ferent from the actions of the other fifty nine is a mystery yet unsolved.- A lot of people who believe in the national guard from priu cipla, do not believe in wasting money on a worse than idle pretense at soldiering. Col Yoran can not feel very proud of his men, He should ask the governor to muster out tbe whole lot of them. Probably the principal incident of the en campment was the arrest and confinement of Willie Campbell, editor of Linn county's populist paper, the Albany Imprint. A pop ulist figuring as a militiaman is in itself a novelty, but the defiance of rules, and laws is very consistent with the advocacy of general populistic doctrine. . V ' The populistic editor is ambitious, to shine socially, and is equally unwilling Xo part with his rather scanty ducats. In trying to maintain the parity of these two failings, he mado himself amenable to military disci pline. It was the night ofa dance, and Wil lie was detailed for guard duty. Tho oppor tunity to shine, however, before the number less summer girls was a strong temptation. He persuaded a friend to dress in his uniform and take bis place that nigbt and ho hurried to the hall. The managers of the dance viewed his appearance at tbe festivities with : hostile emotions, for he had generally been successful in evading the doorkeeper upon such occasions and they felt under no obliga tions to assist him toward swelldom, gratis Tbey scented revenge. Campbell bad left his uniform with his substitute and appeared at the ball in citizen's dress. This was a vio lation of military- rules. The matter was reported lo a high military dignitary, and he cruelly ordered Willie's arrest. A detail of big rough men was appointed to bring him to camp that night, and he was found at a boarding house in com pany with a oouplo of Portland ladies. ' Campbell was rather in clined to resist the official invitation, but wag forcibly persuaded to accompany the detail. Next day he was fined $10 for appearing in citizens clothe, and the matter of bis cvad- ing guard duty coming to light, he was sen tenced to 24 hours in the guard house for neglect of duty. Campbell's paper hereaf ter will probably add military bugs to its choice collection of political insects to be fought by' the populistic quill. Young ladies unfamiliar with surf bathing are advised to consult . some experienced friend concerning their costume before sub mitting themselves publicly to the caresses of old Neptune. The other day at Newport a handsome and modest young lady stepped down from the bathing house to try her hand for the first time at braving tho breakers. She was very tastily attired in a white bath ing habit. It went boyond the usual bathing suit in modest length. ' "There," said an austere old lady to her daughter, "if women folks would observe the rules of decency and bathe in some such proper costume as that, I would have no serious objections to the ex ercise." The young lady tripped into the water and an unusually close breaker struck her. There was a shriek and sundry excla mations. Women hurried to the fair bather with shawls, and the austere old lady hurried her daughter to tbe hotel, for the admired bathing suit was built of flimsy material and being wet portrayed all too minutely the hu man form divine.

A Wife Equal to a Gold Mine. Will some of jour readers give me a good recipe for making cold starch? I am selling self-heating flat iron and iron a little at everr bouse and have to use some starch every place and want to know how to make good cold starch. My husband was in debt and I being'anxious to help him thought I would sell self- beating flat irons, and I am doing splendidly. A cent's worth of fuel will heat the iron for three hour, so you have A perfectly even heat. You can iron in half the time and no danger of scorching the clothes as with the old iron, and you can get the moat beauti ful gloss. I sell at nearly every house, as tbe iron saves so much fuel everybody wants one. . I make 91.50 on each iron and have not sold less than ten any day I worked. My brother is doing well and I think anyone can make iotsof money anyhore selling irons J. F. Casey A Co., St. Loom, Mo., will start anyone in the business, as they did me if yon will address them ' Ms A. Russell.
