There are surface indications that the number of students will be large, and that there will be congestion, as usual, in matriculating. In order to ease things up, Prof. Horner expects to be on hand for registering students next Friday and Saturday, and any who apply then can get their names on the rolls and matriculation cards in advance of the rush. It is sug gested that it would simplify mat ters if students already on the ground, especially local students, would register at that time. The plan is a privilege, in fact, of es pecial value to those who take ad vantage of the earlier registration. .

IT NEVER STOPS Save an Hour a Week A Big Mount ain Mill and Mine A Thirty to Zero Score. Ross Finley, who is assayer at a good salary at the Lucky Boy mine in the Blue River district, is home for a hurried vacation, having ar rived Friday night. He is to re turn to work by the 14th. The Lucky Boy is one of the best known mines in "Oregon. It is owned by a company of which ex councilman Zimmerman of Portland is a leading stockholder, and who is active manager.- Sixty men are employed, and the work never stps except for an hour or two at noon Saturdays. All people may not know it, perhaps, but it is not the practice of miners to observe Sun day. The toil goes on s'sven day s in the week, 30 days in the month and all the days in the year except St. Patrick's and a few holidays. The Lucky Boy's men are divided up into shifts so that the movement of ore and the rattle of the 40 stamp mill never, stops. The mill is run by electric power driven by the McKenzie River, eight miles dis tant from the mite. The Lucky Boy is a dividend payer, in which it is more lucky than most boys. David Graham, ex-manager of the U. of O. football team and Mr. Friesell, also pf U. of O. are em ployed at the mine, Mr. Graham is assistant, amalgamator in the mill, and Mr. Friesell shovels ore in the mine. Being an O. A. C. boy Mr. Finley has discussions as to the relative merits of some things with the Eugene men, and incident ally . has been- informed by Mr. Friesell that Eugene is to do O. A. C. at football next November to the tune of 30 to o. , BACK TO VISIT. Scenes . of Many Years Agone IS Miner now in Southern ' Mountains ' Them was mighty .fine days," said a tall well built man who en tered the hotel last ' Monday. It was William Grant and he was al luding to the days when Doc. Bail ey, Professor McElroy, Colonel Hogue, Bush Wilson and Joel Pal mer lived and figured in the affairs of Benton county. He had gained two fortunes in Old Benton and lost each in a day, because his heart was too big; and now as a result he is living the life of a recluse in some deep mining gulch in the mountains of Douglas. There, at the age of seventy-three this hardy old man is seeking to retrieve his fortune from the gold fields which he has devel oped. He is alone his own cook, his own master, his own toiler. When the deep wintry snows come he contents himself with his little log cabin and the mine not far a way. , At times, for six months and longer, he has been shut out from the world, not having seen a person or a newspaper in all that time. Hence as a matter of busi ness and recreation he has taken a few days off to visit hi friends in Corvallis, Newport and Portland; and then will return to his mount ain home where he will remain alone until the spring thaws out the snows again. Onr day last year a friend in passing near his cabin happened to call on the old man whom to his surprise he found in bed almost un able to speak. A timber had fallen on him, and before he fainted lie managed to crawl into his cabin, where he lay more dead than alive. Simple remedies, such as could be tound, were administered promptly; and when the patient could speak he said, "Cook a pan of that deer liver you brought." When this was done, he said, "Cook another pan full." Then Gaant said, "To prove to you that I haven't eaten anything forvsix days, I am going to eat the whole thing, and you may cook something else for your self." And the big mountaineer, like Joe Meek, easily accomplished the task. Life seemed to come back once more, and his chin and supple tongue began to play with Irish wit as they did in "the days of forty-nine." Gradually health has been- restored until this septua genarian looks as if he could yet be a fine center rush for a high class college team. ' WARRIORS COME BACK. Gridiron Veterans and Their Chieftain Arrive Practicing has Began. Dr, A. C. Steckle arrived Satur day from Reno, Nevada, to" take up the work of preparing the OAC football team for the gridiron bat tles of this fall. Dr. Steckle left Corvallis last January, and he has spent most of the time since in the study of his profession of medicine at the University of Michigan and at Chicago. While at Ann Arbor, he was much in the company with Yost, the famous Michigan coach, and incidentally studied a little foot ball at the feet of the great sachem. He has brought back a few ideas that he claims "will help some in the coming contests. Along with Dr. Steckle, there ar rived some of the old warriors. George Herbert Root, who is this year to be captain of the team, is among the bunch. Kenneth Coop er was also along, as was Rinehart, the bunch grass quarterback. Each of the three is able to take . three square meals per day without flinching and apparently are pre pared to go some in the gridir6n campaign abou:, to open. Floyd Williams, late a surveyor in the fastnesses of the Cascades, arrived Monday and hopes to make good in his old position of left halfback. By the end of the current week it is expected a large part of the squad will be at work, early practice be ing necessary in order to prepare for the game with the University of California, at Berkeley, en the 2 1st or the 28th of October, the date be ing unsettled pending the adjust ment of a game California is mak ing with Pomona College in the southern part of the Golden state. Manager Stimson has not yet completed the schedule of games. Three important dates, however, have been settled. The Thanks giving game is with the University of Washington, and it is- to be played at Seattle. The game with the University of Oregon, is dated for the nth of November and it is to be played at Eugene. One of the strong teams of the season will be Willamette University which un der the coaching of Chauncey Bish op will, compete for Northwest championship with equal chances with most college teams for success. Some predict already that the Wil lamette team is to be the strongest in the state. It will contest with OAC in a game to baplayed on OAC field, Friday, November 24th. . LOG CABIN THERE.
