Refreshments closed the evening's gaiety and the several guests departed with the usual verdict: that Miss Leona is a royal entertainer. The Valentine party given by the Ladies CoflVe Club, at Fireman's hall Tuesday evening, was largely attended ami is said, by those who were fortunate enough to be invited, to have been the most successful and enjoyable social function given in Corvallis in years. The ladies were dressed a la Martha Washington, while the gentlemen ap peared in old colonial costume ; powdered wig, knee breeches, great buckles and nil. A great banquet of the Loyal Lygion was given recently at Manila. General Anderson was chairman of the committee on arrangements, and selected Major Eastwick as one of his co-workers. The major was asked to provide a guard of honor, consisting of 'one sergeant, threi' corporals anil nine privates, lie was informed that men of the best appearance were required. Corporal F. E. Edwards, who resigned his position as professor in the O. A. C. to join the volunteers at Manila, was one'of those selected as the guard of honor. The three generals present that night paid the guard most flattering compliment? As Geneial Reeves started to leave .the building be stopped before the sergeant, eyed air the men critically and eaid : "Sergeant, that is tfie finest guard I ever saw, regulars or volunteers." This is not the first instance in which the college has had reason to be rroud of its representatives in the Philippines. , The Oratorical Contest. W. J.

Hill, of Portland, wben be delivered his lecture on "Cycling Through Europe with a Kodak," at the opera house Mon day evening. The Ladies' Aid Society, under whose auspices the entertainment was given, realized quite a neat sum as their share of the proceeds. Dr. Hill addressed the students of the college during chapel exercises Tuesday morn ing. It is feared that when full the damage done by the recent severe cold spell become known, that they will tell a costly story. ; Mr. J. D. Howell was in the city Tuesday and he brings V the news that his orchard ot sou peach trees on tne Kiger island was entirely destroyed, and 1500 of Rube Kiger's trees met the same fate. These trees were eight years old and vielded a fine crop !sst year.

The high contracting parties i were Mr. W. S. Carver and Miss Mary E. Lilly. Dr. Thompson performed the ceremony. Mr. Carver has lived in Corvallis and vicinity for the past eight years. He is a young man of sterling qualities and has the esteem of all who .knew him. The bride is the daughter ! of Mr. Norm. Lilly. She has grown to womanhood in th s city, where she com : mands the respect of all for her womanly qualities and gentle disposition. The happy couple took the noon train for Portland. Thev will make their future .home in Fairmount, Minnesota, where the best wishes of a host of friends will I follow them. The oratorical contest, to determine who should represent the O. A. C. at the intercollegiate. contest which occurs at McMinnville, March 10th, took place at the college chapel last Friday evening. A very large and enthusiastic audience greeted the contestants, each one of whom seemed to have nearly an equal number of admirers. ' " The Jeffersonian orchestra introduced the program with an excellently rendered selection. This and all following num bers by this organization were -a credit to the college and the performers. .' '- Mr. E. B. Aldrich had taken for his subject "Henry Geotge.'' Its treatment showed much study and careful prepara tion, but it is a subject which gives little opportunity for flights of . oratory or rnetoricai nourishes. Mr. Aldrich is forcible in delivery, but he has not yet acquired the ease, grace, and dramatic power of the orator. Something pleasing and artistic was expected when Miss Lulu Spangler began her solo a simple love song and all that was expected was realized. The Handmaid of Civilization" was the theme chosen by Mr. W. L. Patterson, and so ably did be handle it that he was declared the wirmer of the contest. Mr. Patterson's success, however, was due to his excellent control of his voice and pleasing delivery, rather than to his treatment of his subject. The O. A.!C. has never sent an abler representative to a state contest, and if he fails to win at McMiunville the fault will lie more in his paper than in his delivery. , Miss Idella McBride's oration, "The Women of Our Country," was splendidly1 written, and told an interesting story o the part taken by women in the building of our country and her influence in its affairs. Miss Constance Holland delighted the audience with a vocal solo which she rendered with excellent taste and ex pression. The oration "The Golden Age," in its style and treatment showed Mr. Lawrence S to vail to be possessed of more than ordinary literary ability. A few more years "experience and this young man will prove a dangerous rival for aspirants for oratorical honors at the O. A. C, That Miss Leona Smith had the best paper, taken all in all, there is no doubt. "Enthusiasm" was her subject and its style, originality and argument were bright and clever-. Her delivery was spirited aud nicely suited to the matter discussed, but she has not the rich voice nor splendid power displayed by Mr. Patterson. After thirty minutes of deliberation the judges, Mrs. B. F. Irvine, Rev. Murphy aud Jno. Burnett rendered their decision ! awarding the prize to Mr. Patterson . reports ot j He wa8 ;ven a rousing cheer of en couragement, and every student in the college will support him ardently in coming contest.' absent after that occurred he would leave the office in charge of tne "devil," ignoring the foreman' Or. Hill never got Carter in a friendly tno: I until several months afterwards when Carter was absent one week he warmed up aud wrote several hot temperance articles, as a sort of bairn V of Gilea.i for Carter's wounds. The paper has had many up and downs, but it will be missed by all. We are sorry to lose it from our list, and while the TTxros is giving the Benton countv people a first-class Service, still old memories linger around and old time names cling to the Corvallis Gazette. Let us thank it lor its good deeds and overlook its shortcomings. Albany Herald. Tragedy at Manila. Manila, P. I., Jan. 7, 1899. j Union: - I There was trasedv in the Oreaon reiri- ' ment last night. Lee Moore, 1st Serg't of Co. L.was shot by . a sentry, Albert Papst, of Co. M, and died a few minutes after. The sentry but did his duty, and strange carelessness on the part of the dead man and an officer who accompa nied him brought about the shooting. Papst was' on guard at a very im portant post, a large magazine at the wall near our quarters, and the guards saw two men supposed to be natives, lurking around their post. They refused to halt and the guards opened fire, but the prowlers apparently, escaped. The firing was heard at our quarters and it appears that Moore and an officer went, out of curiosity, to see the excitement. The sentries were still watching for the men they had fired at when Sergeant Moore dropped over the wall and within' 20 feet of Papst, who called halt and almost at the same time' fired,: shooting Moore through the body. He could not, as a soldier, have done otherwise. No one but guards or officers of the guard are allowed near the magazines even in day light, and as he knew the person he saw could not be a sentry, the only con clusion Papst could rightfully draw '"was that the man was there for mischief... A sentry, especially at such an important post, must decide on matters of doubt in favor of the defense of his post. And the officers and vmen while deeply re gretting the aeath of Seigeant Moore, commend Papst for doing his duty. I did not know the dead sergeant, but all the men in his company speak of him in the highest terms. Papst was one of the recruits and enlisted in Co. M, at Woodburn, when most of the recruits from Corvallis un listed, v He jeels very, badly and even the thought that be Could not have rightly done otherwise fails to console him. v . : v. It is said that one of the natives shot at was killed and fell into the moat, and a detttil is looking for the body. "We are in readiness for orders to move. We do not knoW. 'where e will go, nor when, nor evn tjjat we- wilV go at all, but the oSieera'yidently anticipate some change. :'v'"- Monday evening next the "Philippine Association of Graduates and Under graduates of the Oregon Agricultural College" has a feast at the Parisian restaurant. The officers are President, "Gyp" Thurston, Vice Pres., C. Jones (ordinance sergeant 1st Tennessee) Sec retary Don Holgate, and Treasurer Corporal Noel. The association is "col lecting" for the college and the boys are trying to secure one of the Spanish brass cannon fo mount on the campus. Mail leaves in half an hour, via Hong Kong. We have- lately been getting only a few hours notice as to the de parture of. mail vessels. Our last mail from Corvallis was dated the day after Thanksgiving, and no mail is expected within a week .

C. C. Hogue's Opinion. Work of County Court. ihe resignation of 1, K. Carver as constable of district nine was accepted a new road district, designated as three, was on petition of Fehler, Parker and others, established from territory embraced in 19, 30 and 37. The petition of Finley Fnllerton and others, asking for a consolidation of road districts 42 and 20, and the remonstrance of F. A. Deickhoff against same, were continued. The bond of Sam'l Kerr and the motion of Ellsworth Post, undertaking the care of indigent soldiers, were filed. The bond is for $500 with W. T. Small and S. A. Hemphill as sureties. One hundred and seventy-two dollars, including 20 per cent, penalty, was paid by Bellfountain Fruit Association for the redemption" of property purchased by Benton county at tax sale in February, 1897, on account of 1895 taxes, and the clerk was instructed to cancel Benton county's certificate for the same. Anna M. Lewis. The Two In One. - The Corvallis Gazette, one of the old' est republican weekly newspapers in the state, announces that it will suspend, the subscription list being absorbed by the Corvallis Union. Nearly 36 years ago the Gazette started in Corvallis and has been during most of the time a lepubli can paper. At one time, about the mid die '60s, Dr. J. L. Hill was one of the editors and proprietors of the Gazette. At the time of Lincoln's assassination, Ben Odeneal and Dr. Hill were owners and publishers, with Rev. B. F. Boyakin, editor. Two or three years afterward Wm. Carter, ex-state printer, bought the paper and turned it into a Good Tem plar's paper, it being the state official organ of that society. About 1866 Carter was attending a temperance meeting in Portland and left Dr. Hill, who was foreman, in charge of the office for one issue. During the week word reached Corvallis that California had gone demo cratic. It was a splendid opportunity for some sport, so Dr. Hill turned it into a straight out and out 'democratic paper for that week. Carter came back post haste from Portland, bis wrath aroused to a fever pitch by the sudden change. It aroused the whole temperance element' in the valley and Carter received many warm letters from Good Templars. Carter worked several weeks before he had the matter back to a quiet state. The prom inent democrats in Benton county, among them being the late Judge Strahan, Wm. Gird and Jas. Hamilton, enjoyed the joke immensely and never tired of tormenting Carter about his dem ocratic paper. When Carter would be j C. C. Hogue, of Albany, who was for twelve years auditor and general passen ger agent ot the Oregon racinc, was abked his opinion as to the probability of the extension of the Corvallis & East ern (the present name of the old O. P.) says the Sentinel, and he replies that a great deal depends on the action of congress in regard to the building of the ietties at Yaauina bav . A former con- eJ gress provided for the extension of these works for a distance of 2000 feet on each siue ot tne cuannei, dui me Bum nas not yet been definitely set' apart and so the work lags, although the contract has been let to Chicago . parties for some $600,000. Unless Yaquina bay can be made a safe harbor for 'vessels drawing 22 feet, Mr. Hogue thinks, there will be very little use in extending the Corvallis & Eastern further.eastward. The length of the road is now 145 miles between Yaquina City and Idanha station, in the Cascade mountains. 1 The road has been surveyed eastward from this point across the state, to form a junction at or near Huntington, but no work has been done on this portion of the road since 1887. A great deal of timber and wood is now being hauled over the road from the for ests of the Santiam, but this constitutes the bulk of the business oil the east end of the line. Mr. Hogue thinks that the Yaquina harbor has already been much improved by the jetties thus far conr structed. There is now 22 feet of water inside the bar at high tide, where there was formerly a depth of but 18. Six feet added to this depth will make quite a seaport of Yaquina bay, and a conti nental railroad, he believes, would soon follow the attainment of this depth. The transcontinental railroads now in exist ence are therefore opposed to the further improvement of Yaquina bay, in Mr. Hogue's opinion, and this accounts in at considerable degree lor the opposition to extension of these jetties during this erm. Miss Anna M. Lewis, who for twenty weeks of intense suffering has patiently and uncomplainingly waited the final summons, departed this life Thursday, Feb. 9th, at her home near this city. Miss Lewis came to Corvallis from Lodi, Wisconsin, in 1894, with her parents, Mrt and Mrs. Jas. E. Cronk. Their move to Oregon was made in the hope of improving Miss Anna's health, but consumption bad fastened itself upon her, and relief only could be hoped for. Twenty weeks ago she was confined to her bed. All that medical aid and loving friends could do to relieve her suffering and comfort her fast waning life was offered. Miss Lewis was a meuber of the fresh man class ot the U. A. J., and stood high in the admiration and esteem of her classmates, who loved her for her gentle, womanly disposition. She wis apt in ber studies, and bright and winning in her conversation. The funeral services were conducted by Dr. Thompson at the family residence, Friday morning at 10 o'clock, and the interment occurred at Crystal Lake cem etery City Council. The city council met in regular session last Monday evening. Nothing of great importance came up for consideration. Lee, Taylor, Hall and Pygall were absent, the two latter on account of sickness . It was decided that if a buyer could be found the city should dispose of the building and property on Madison street formerly occupied by . the Gazette Pub. Co. R. E. Gibson, P. Avery and J. R. Smith were appointed a committee with full power to act. Bills amounting to $360 on the general and $50 on the street fund were allowed. Watch Lost.
