Fiacher Dam Completed
Telephone Improvements.
Good Roads.
The dam across Mary's river for
supplying water to the Corvallia
Flouring mills, was completed
Thursday. Its construction has
been in progress nearly four months.
It is, without doubt, one of the
most complete structures of the
kind in the country. In its con
struction, nothing in thewayof ex
pense, labor or material that would
contribute to its durability has
been spared or left undone. Its
foundation and a part of the super
structure are of solid concrete, in
providing which, several car loads
of cement were used.
The foundation timbers, bolted
aad girdled together in varied fash-J
ion, are embedded in cement. The
lower portion is perforated with a-
ootit a dozen twelve inch pipes
through which, by means of a gate,
a large amount of water may be al
Eowed to pass, whenever that course
is aecessary to relieve pressure or
prevent overflow. The dam has
cost many thousands of dollars. In
ats construction from half a dozen
to a dozen men have been almost
constantly employed. The work,
from the beginning, has been di
rected by August Fischer.
Only $500 in taxe3 is delinquent
a the jBenton couuty tax roll.
Et is believed that the Benton coun
ty sherifif has the smallest delin
quent list in the state. The amount
was figured out and the delinquent
list tarned over to the county clerk
for extension and preparation for
final collection. For this purpose,
about co days will be required, and
, &ea the list, accompanied by a
warrant will be put in the hands of
ohenff Burnett lor final collection.
Of the $000 delinquent, a large a
mount is taxes on property which'
the county has bid in at former tax
ales. As a tax collector and as
taxpayers, Sheriff Burnett and Ben
ton county people are hummers.
The totals of the sheriff's books
ow that $55,000 in taxes was paid
over the sheriffs counter between
Feb. 17th and March 15th, that the
total amount of rebate wasabout $i,
636; that the total amount of pen
alties was about $ 150.
County Judge Waiters returned
Thursday from several days attend
ance on the good Good Roads Con
vention held this week in Portland
trader tha auspices of tbe Good
Roads commission sent out by the
general government. The commis
sion in its. visits to the various
states of the Union, usually takes
along ten carloads of machinery
sand appliances for use in making to
the conventions demonstrations of
Sfee ' methods making best
roads out of material at
hand. This outfit was not
brought to Portland on account of
She season of the year, but was left
In Utah, where it was last used.
2t is to come to Portland next year
-when another Good Roads conveu
tion will be held.
Nearly every county in Oregon
was represented in the late conven
xtton, usually by the county judge,
hut in some instances by the whole
court. As a result a permanent
organization, was affected, and
much enthusiasm aroused.
In a practical way, the commis
sion set forth the fact of how to
- build best roads. The first princi
pel laid down was that drainage
must be established. Next that
where earth is thrown up it must
he thoroughly packed with roller.
SText that crushed rock is necessa
ry for a perfect road. In adding
crushed rock to a suitably prepar
ed foundation there must be a layer
of large rock, firmly packed by roll
ing. Then a la57er of smaller rock,
likewise packed by rolling. Then
sx layer of rock siftings or saDd,
sprinkled with water, and rolled.
'Gravel may bs used in road build
imsr, but the commission declares
crashed rock to be far better.
The first inter -collegiate game
of football on O A C field takes
ailace at 2:o this afternoon. .It
will attract a large crowd, because
the local team has now been in
training for nearly a month, and
Corvallisites will want to see what
iVind ofshowine.it is to make. The
game is between Willamette and O
V,. and will unauestionably be
an interesting struggle.
Next Thursdav the local team
leaves for Seattle to play the Uni
versitv of Washington, lhe men
will reach Seattle Friday forenoon,
and have a dy'a rest.,, before ". the
game, which takes place Saturday
afternoon. Washington has a
strong team, aud the local raenkre
wonderina . what the game will
have in store.
COLLEGE NOTES
In the department of music
there are registered so far this year
thirty students. Owing to the ex
istence of the department during
the previous year, they are more
advanced than at that time. At
present the conservatory of music
is temporarily located at Cauthorn
Hall. Director Goodnough receiv
ed two new pianos last week for
use of his classes. In all there are
now ten pianos in constant use by
the department of music and the
college societies.
Miss Minnie G Smith of Latour-
elle Falls on the Columbia, re-en
tered college last Monday. Miss
Smith is the only lady member of
the senior class who looks to farm
ing as a life occupation, in fact she
is the only lady member of the
agricultural department in college
hence her work has brought forth
considerable favorable comment es
pecially from visitors at the college,
who seem to think that .the redemp
tion of the overworked farm mav
yet lie in the directing care of
woman.
ITS RAPID GROWTH
The gang of telephone linemen,
who have been making improve
ments in the local system for two
weeks, left Thursday, .some for
Eugene and others for Portland.
Much change in the local telephone
arrangements, have resulted from
their visit. Within two blocks of
the office now, there are but two
subscribers on a party line. With
in five blocks, but four.
A large lot of new phones were
put in, swelling the number to near
ly 180, a fact that evinces the rapid
growtn 01 tne system, wnicn out a
few months ago, included only 100
phones. Other improvements
made were introduction of a new
cable and enlargement ofthe switch
board.
The fiftieth anniversary of the

ternity was celebrated by the Odd
