The Increase in the population of Corvallls la noticed by deliverymen and milkmen, Walter Taylor, who has been out of the milk business for two years, Is again on the route, and be says that tbe added number of families in town is a matter of great surprise. J D Irvine has purchased a dwelling house and lots In the west half of the Tunnicllffe block, near the Southern Pacific etation. The price paid is $500. Additions are to be made to the house, The house is now occupied by Harry Clodfelter and family.

Mrs Lilly and Cecile remain In this city until arrangements have been perfected for their arrival In La Grande. Mr Lilly has been for years with B M Wade & Co of Corvallls, nnd is one of the best salesmen in the country, as well as a most popular young man. Both he and Mrs Lilly stand high in Corvallls social circles, and their de parture Is regretted by many friends. The virtue of spraying apples for codling moth was demonstrated this season in the orchard which J Meeker bought of Tbtfmas Whitehorn near town. A portion of the orchard was Bprayed at proper Intervals during the season, and the - presence of so many more wormy apples In the un eprayed portion causes the owner to regret now that alt of the trees were not sprayed, in tne epiayed por tion tbe per cent or wormy apples are very email. The whole orchard will be well sprayed next year. The crop from the orchard this season was 400 bushels. - Corvallls police authorities have their eye on wheelmen. Of late, the speed limit of six . miles an hour on sidewalks Is regularly trangressed. Wheelmen ride without bells in the day time and without lighted lamps at night, all in violation of solemn or dinances. ' It is the announced pur pose of the police to put an "end to these trangressions, and to Insist upon strict observance of the bicycle regulations. It is almost sure that wheelmen are'golng to get into trouble Of course there is one, and ; but one way ior them to avoid it, and that is to be within tbe requirements of the law. The authorities have already given publlo notice of their intentions and wheelmen will be without excuse If they are arrested and fined. The work of filling In the sink holes caused by the late heavy rains on the loose dirt along the new lat eral sewers la in progress. Every since the handsome milk - wagon on HuklU's routes suffered damage by going into one of the holes, the nec essity of making the places safe has been apparent. It was while the wagon was driving over one of the laterals that the cave occurred and the damage ' sustained kept the new vehicle in a repair shop for part of a day. Several other parties had narrow escapee, among them a farm er who got one of the horses of his team partly in a hole and came near going in himself, with, wagon and team all In a heap. A big lawsuit could result from Jack of care In re pairing these dangerous places. Wheat 60. A number of young p eople were pleasantly entertained at the home of Kratz Cronise Saturday night. - Miss Buth Cauthorn returned to her home at Wells, yesterday, after a week's visit with Miss Edna Finley. Miss Carrie Danneman arrived yesterday from Clem to spend Thanks giving with relatives, . ; Thanksgiving service at the Epis copal church tomorrow at 10 a m.

' Mr and Mrs Wlllard Gilbert left Saturday for Dallas, where Mr Gilbert has. aecepted a position as bookkeeper in a Dallas saw mill. Tie Albany Herald man first talked about mules andnow about jack rabbits with reference to foot ball events. Long ears is unavoid ably an ingredient in any of his re marks, at least on football. Sheriff Burnett is no longer gun less, The fine gun that be dropped under 20 feet ofwater while he took a cold bath in the slough on Dick Ki ger's place last week, has been re covered. Dick Klger pulled it out of the depths by use of a long handled rake. The gun suffered less from Its plunge than did its owner. There was a birthday party at tie home of Mr and Mra B J Evera on College hill Saturday afternoen. It was Master George's 8th birthday. The youngsters enjoyed a fine tlrqe. Refreshments were served, Those present were, George, Garland Min nie Wuestefeld, Clyde and Bessie Metca If, George Nichols, Malo and Allen Gady and Clarence and Hazel ttlgln. George Noak ee, formerly of Cor vallls, but who now operates a store and the postofflce at Hillsdale, auourD oi jfortJand, was held up and robbed by masked men Friday night. Noakes was about to close his store when the bandits entered. They presented a pistol and commanded Noakes to give up his money. The latter complied and threw them a sack containing $104. Then the bandlta beat a haety retreat, and Noakes ee curing a revolvef fired four times at them in the darkness. A surprise party .was given Miss Bertha Cramer at Her home Friday evening. The evening was spent in games and a general good time. Af ter the! amusements refreshments were served which were much en joyed. Those present were, Missea Georgia White, Pearl Vincent, Mattie Strong, Bertha Cramer, Mabel Wood, Merle Uollister, Winnie Michael, Hazel Montgomery; Delmar Hedg path, Walter Woed, Tracy Holll3ter, Waggoner, Smith Lane, A J Fuller, George Briel and Hugh Jones. A big crowd watched college glrla and boya play two game8 of basket ball Friday night. . The bovs game was notable in that the second team bested the first team In a score of 15 to 11. The first team is, Stel wer, Biopres, Gate, Stokes and Morris; the second team-is. Binebart, Gar- row, Swann; Bilsea and Anstedt. The game of tbe girls was between two picked teams as follows; Beds, Miss es Smith Yaeger, Van Cleve, Stewart, and Weber. Orange, Misses Wicks, Linyilie, Elgin, Bay Smith and Grace Nichols. The Beds won in a score of five to threee. - Those who attended the football game on OAO field Saturday after noon got their money's worth. Tbe contest was between teams from the Corvallls and Salem publlo schools, and was as hot as ever eeen on the local field. The lads were there to play and that Is what they did with reckless abandon,' affording more sport for the side lines and grand stand than games of far more note and higher admission money." The Corvaliis boys had the klckoff and stopped tbe ball on Salem's 35.yard line, and during the rest of (the half kept It in Salem's territory.' In the second half Salem kicked off, and by bucking the line the . Corvaliis boya soon ran tbe ball out of their own and into Salem's territory, where with hard work they finally ran It down to Salem's four yard line. There they lost the ball, but quickly forced Sa lem to punt to them from Salem's six or seven yard line, and were In fair way for a touchdown when time was called. The final score of the game was naught to naught, At Eugene, preparations fc are on for the Willamette Valley Musical Festival to be held there, next May, Three season tickets for the three nights have been placed at 82.50 each.

No less than five of them are on, the way to China today, most of them to get wives, and four of the five made a stake in the hop business this year. Four of the :' bunch with fitting adieus to their . coun trymen in this town, took Mon day's Westside for Portland, and the fifth, Sorbin Sing left yesterday From Portland, the party of thrifty heathen so to Victoria, and thence take a British steamer for Hong Kong. They will be 24 days ' Is crossing the Pacific, and the trip over will cost $48, steerage. Of the Chinese hop kings In the party, Sam Sun is one, and he is orobablv the best to do 01 all, so far as this world's goods are con cerned. He is the lessee of the Beach hop yard across the Wil lamette. He has the yard leased for a period of 12 years, of which two have expired. He had a good crop and made money last year- This year his output was 35,000 pounds, and he sold at 1 8 and 20 cents per pound. The account is that Sam Sun cleared this year the snug sum of $4, 300." Sam is going to get married on arrival in China. His bride, of course, is not vet selected. That will be a mat ter to be arranged after his arrival in the flowery kingdom. The maid whom his fancy selects will bless his Chinese home, after pro per financial arrangements have been settled upon by Sam Sun with her father. "Sam no buy wife " said one of his friends yesterday, "Chinamen no buy wife, Newspaper talkee that way; no sabbee. Sam he talkee girl father, tell 'em old man he pay $400, or may be $1,000, aad old man he fix 'em up in clothes and set 'em up, so Chinaman no buy 'em wife. All mistake; Meli can no sabbee." But whether it be called buying or not, Sam is going to have a wife who will not come back with him to Corvaliis when he , returns next April cr Mav, but with whom he will; live for a brief three or four months and then return to his hop yard on the Willamette in . the hopes of striking high prices in hops again. The other lucky hop growing Chinamen are the three who operate the S N WUy yard, They pay an annual rental of $550. They have three years of lease unexpired Like-Sata Sun, they had a ; profit able crop last year: but it was this year that they struck oil. They marketed 64,000 pounds of hops, and received for them 22 cents per pound. . They received in all $14,080. It is supposed that their net earnings for the year will ap proximate $9000, or $10,000. At any rate, each of the three feels rich enough to afford a trip to China, and is now enroute there to have a time, perhaps the time of his life. Sorbin Sing is the other member of the party. He is the pioneer laundryman of Corvaliis. He has washed Corvaliis linen for about 18 years, and is supposed to be very well to do. Like Sam Sun he is going back to marry, and is not likely to return to Corvaliis, until the swallows, perhaps begin to twitter again in spring time. The Iilly China tourists, . all have' fath ers and mothers to look after yet, and as they are not supposed to marry sunder such conditions, they will return to Corvaliis before the others. For Sale.

THE GAME MADE OAC and Albany College Teams to Play Football December Sixth. The OAC and Albany teams are matched for a game of football, to take place on Albany College camp us field, a week from next" Satur day, which is December" 6"th. The game was arranged through the acceptance by the Albany team of condition two in the second chal lenge issued by the OAC manager, which provides that- the game shall be without charge for admis sion, and that the OAC men pay their own exoensps. ' Further stipulations, as provided in the challenge are that the offi cials of the game shall be Edward Jiidd of Salem, and Reno Hutch inson,' of Portland, and that all the players on each team shall be bona fide students registered at their respective institutions at least 10 days before November 21st, the date on which the OAC challenge was issued. V It is expected that the game will be fully as intetesting, if not more so, than any that has been played this season in Oregon. Albany College has played two naught to naught games with the University of Oregon eleven and with the lat ter, OAC also played a naught to naught game, showing that all three teams are very evenly match ed, all being tied for the state col lege championship. Whether the coming game will break-the naught to naught hoodoo, remains " to be seen x The OAC men will have to play the game, with Nash, one of her best men on the side lines. Get a Knife Free. .
