Notice is hereby given that about the 1st day of August last, a three year old gelding, 16 hands high weighing about 1250, being a mouse colored brown with a star in the forehead left the Vineyard pasture about four miles N W from Cor vallis. Reasanable reward will be paid ' for the return of said colt or information as to its whereabouts. Spencer Bichnial, Owner, Corvallis, Ore, Agricultural Hall is completed. Contractor Snook cleared away his debris, discharged his last man. and shipped his tools to Salem Tues dav. The buildinsr committee of the board of regents, looked the structure over Thursday ' afternoon, and the same evening accepted it and made settlement with Con tractor Snook. Every part was found by them to be in perfect har mony with the plans and sped fications, and the building as a whole, faithfully and fully finished according to contract. As it now stands, the building is the largest and best appointed as wellasthemost costly collesre structure in the state, Itsentire cost including heating'plant is about fid 5.000. In the advanca in cost of materials and labor since it was contracted, it is doubtful if the building could now be con structed for $50000 or more. A fact of interest is, that the final details of the building were so well figur ed out before the contract was let that the entire cost of extras was only $100. and of this $40 was in cluded in the breaking of stone lintels, an accident that could not be foreseen. The . construction work by the contractor was so sat isfactory that, though the building was a few days behind time in com pletion, no demurrage was exacted by thejcommittee. Dr Withycombe is so iar the only occupant of the building. Prof Kent is busy with a force of men moving the dairy into the basement and within a short time will have his department established there. A small portion of the belongings of Prof Lake's department have been transferred to the new struct ure, but the removal will not be completed at the present. The other new departments that the building will ultimately house, are bacteriological, chemical ana en tomological sections. It is proba ble that, on account of a lack of facilities and means, all the de partments will not be installed m the new Hall before the Christmas holidays. Agricultural Hall had its incept ion two or three years ago in a re port made by the president of the board of regents, urging the need of such a building and recommending its construction "When the last legislature provided a $20,000 special ap propriation for improvements at the college and levied a permanent ap propriation of $25,000 per year, be erinniner first of last January, the Tu " "" K t to exhume the building committee was appointed, consistiug of J K Weatherford, Cap tain Apperson and J D Daly. They invited plans of a number of archi tects, and finally accepted those submitted by C A Burgraff of Al bany. They advertised for bids, and the contract was let 0 H Snook of Salem. The contract was signed by all parties on the nth of Jann ary. On the 16th, gronnd was broken, and the construction work began. It has been prosecuted dil igently ever since sometimes with a force of 35 to 38 men. The building is 125 feet long and 85 feet wide. Its extreme height is 59 i feet. It has four stories the first is of Cascade granite, anb the rest of Pioneersandstone. The build- ingis to be dedicated with appropri-1 ate ceremonies on Wednesday 01 next week. And Many Instruments During the Year The Carriage Factory. Though not generally known, it is a fact that there has been a great demand recently for vehicles manufactured at the local carriage factory. One order for a carload for Eastern Oregon, and another for Southern Oregon had to be re fused by the "factory people be cause they .had not sufficient faci lities at hand to build the rigs. If the factory had been able to put 500 rigs on the market, there is no doubt, Manager Cramer, says, that they could all have been profitably sold. As it is, of eighty buggies man ufactured during the season, but two are left on hand.. An order received by mail a day or two ago, had to be turned down for lack of stock. Of hacks something near 50 has already been marketed, and of 25 that will be turned out of the works in a week or two, near ly all are contracted for. In ad dition, a number of heavy wagons have been disposed 01, besides special rigs made to order, all of which has raised the total number of vehicles turned out at the es tablishment during the year to about .130. Thus, in spite of the unpretentious way in which the en terprise has been moving along, the year's output of vehicles has al most reached $15,000 worth. i In the organ department there has been similar activity. The sales for the season have comprised about 100 instruments, aggregat mg about $8,000. Orders tor organs are now being received at factory in unexpected numbers, and frequently from distant parts, showing that the product of the factory is gaining a reputation that sells the goods without interposi tion of canvassers. About a dozen men are employ ed at the factory now. The mana gement has on hand lumber for next year's work, and is now gath ering in logs for manufacture of lumber for use later on. MANY COMING TO EXHUME REMAINS And Bury in Benton Death in Mon tana of W. W. Vanderpool. William W Vanderpool, one of the sons of Mr and Mrs Cam Van derpool, is dead.
