" Albany Herald: Interest has been manifested in the course of Coryallis as to their "club" which as a distributor ot stimulants, in a dry town has kept the mills of thej law busy. The accused had.: the' benefit of able counsel and nothing which could be done in their favor -was apparently omitted.. But the facts could not be controverted. These club1!, being a transparent ef fort to evade the law regulating the sale of liquors, deserve the fate which they are meeting. When a majority vote establishes a law, it should be strictly complied with, and the disposition of the' people at present is to require such - observ ance of the local option law. ; t 5 i Wednesday's Albany Herald: Judge William Galloway yester day; decided the habeas corpus case brought by Mr. . and Mrs, John Senger of - Corvallis, for the recov ery of their . grandchild" Wilma Warren, by awarding the little girl to her .father, Luther Warren. The suit was brought by the child's maternal grandmother and, grand father, who had cared for her from the time she was - born until last spring, when the father took the child to his parents. In the coun ty court the child was awarded to theSerigers, but . Mr. and Mrs. John Warren, parents cf the father against whom the suit had .been brought, appealed the case to the circuit court, and here a trial was held, with the result that the father who claimed the right to have the child and care for her, was put in charge of the little girl. - The. de cision was rendered after a. careful trial of the case . before Judge Gal loway. .

He has Hairpins and Corsets ' -And she has a Dozen Football Suits. here will be a mighty angry young woman in California tomor row. She is Miss Lelia Howard, who left Corvallis for the Golden state, last night's six o'clock C. & E, When she goes into her trunk on arrival for a hair pin or a hand kerchief , -she will find neither. Nor will she find aoy other of the wild erness of creations, fluffery and flummery incideut to a lady's bou:. doir.'when she lifts the lid of that trunk. Indeed, it will all be dread ful. 'Two' trunks were at the JC. & E. station when Miss Howard arrived at the depot. They were trunks that looked very much alike on ti e outsidd, but dreadfully unlike on the inside. .One contained corsets, stockings, smelling salts, needles, pins, combs, safety pins, scissors, ribbons, laces, and 14,000,000 other articles enumerable only in the cen sus. The other contained a dozen football suits, that were being ship ped to Jefferson for use in playing a game this afternoon. It was all easy. Friends were about her. saying goodbyes, and good wishes: She claimed, and the baggageman checked. the wrong trunk. When in the quiet uds and sanctity of her own room after arrival she lifts the lid and reaches into her trunk with perfect confidence for a lace handkerchief and grabs instead a pair ot tootball trousers, there will be a smothered scream. When, she makes one more grab and gathers a pair of shin guards, there will be a shriek. When, as the survey goes .on , and she encounters; firs' t a nose guard and then one after another of the horrid articles that fit out a foot ball chieftain for the fray, well then, there will be everything but a funeral. ' The discovery was made long after Miss Howard was well on her way to Imperial. California, which is her destination. Sam Damon is the man who is out the football suits, and has left instead, a trunk for which he has no use ' in this world, or the next, that is nof'for the present. The wires are buzzing meantime with telegrams, and after a week or so, Miss Howard will be relieved of her football outfit and Mr. Damoa of his hairpins. . IS MARRIED MAN NOW. Lieut.
