Prs Taylor, foimerly of Phi lomath, is now in New Zealand. The slo.y is that he recently figur ed in a ship wreck and that he was rescued with other survivors at one of the poris of that island. A newspaper, giving an account of the wreck was lately received at Philomath. Prcrs is said to have shipped in a vessel at Poilland, afT ter leaving Corva'lis several mouths ago.

Following close behind him was a much larger dog of ponderous jaw, huge body and unmistakable prow ess in the saw dust ring. Number two was evidently agging his com panion into a proposed battle with his old enemy. Anon he looked back at his friend encouragingly, as much as to say, "look at him." When this was not in progress, he had his eye on number 1 and the growls and whines with which dogs scent a canine mill, and en courage it, continually fell from number 2, The owner of the original dog. herein numbered 1, didn't like the looks of the big fellow. His own dog isa fighter, but the appearance of the giant was altogether too fer ocious and too powerful to suit. Besides there were two to one. with a certainty that the one that his own dog had so often licked would take a hand. The outcome of it all was, that there was no .' fight. The owner cut a corner, and led his pet off in another direction, vowing trouble to the other pair if iheyi saw fit to follow which they did'nt. The intelligence displayed, how ever, by number two in the effort to even up old scores, made of the in cident a beautitul study in domestic animal life in which there is of- times chance for human beings to observe wish profit. Christian Endeavorers State Convention in Session Now. Corvallis is full of Christian Eu deavorers. They come from every pait of the state. Something like 200 are here. Decorations along the business blocks extend them a weleonie. Two big banners that spau Main street speak hospitality Two ni redone in front of the Pres byterian church and another at the Methodist, sound the same slogan. One that stretches across the walk near the adoriniitrati.jn building speaks welcome trom the college. At the Methodist church last night Mayor Johnson, Prof. Berchtold and Rev. Hurd renewed the assur ances orally that the banners and decoration? silently speak. The sessions are now in full blast. They wi l not conclude un til Sunday evening. They include what is planned to be a monster re ception at the Armory tomorrow night. It is to involve features never before touched at a similar convention. The official programme of what remains of the convention is to be lound in last Tues Jay's Times. The proceedings are said to be even more interesting than the pro gramme promised. Trie reports of the work for the past year in all fields are said to be the most cheer ing in the history of the organi zation. - GORDON HATS Gordon Hats are with'n the reach of every mau in this town.

A plan is on foot to run a special train in connection with the six o'clock train, Tuesday evening, to bring Corvallisites home after the performance if a sufficient number can be secured. Advices from Washington are to the effect that O AC cadets are to be armed with Krag-Jorgensen ri fles, instead of the antiquated Springfield guns that they have long wrestled with in their military evolutions. Lieut. Quinlan re ceived information by letter Wed nesday that a change in the guns for the regular army would make the older patterns of Krag-Jorgen-sens available for college military use. As it is,' the supply of Spring- nems ar, me estate VJonege is 100 short of 'requirements, on account of increased attendance, and the advent of the new guns will be of value from more than one stand point. Lieut.. Quinlan says the . change may be made shortly, or that circumstances may so arrange themselves that some time may elapse before the new guns are re ceived. A large touring automobile con taining a man and his wife in z. narrow road met a hay wagon full loaded. The woman declared that the farmer must back out, but her ' husband contended that she was unreasonable. "But you can't tfack the automobile so far," she said, ' 'and I dont intend to move for anybody. He should have seen us.' ' The husband pointed out ( that this was unreasonable owing ' to an abrupt turn in the road. "I don' t care, " she insisted. 'I won' t move, if we have to stay here all night." The man in the automo bile was starting to argue the matter when the farmer, who had been sitting quietly on the hay interrupt ed: "Never mind sir," he exclaim ed. "I'll try to back out. . I've got one just like her at home." saw the day they are ha'f as good for the table as an Oregon piime, yet they are more popularly bought. One reason why prunes are a litcle stiff in price now is that they ?re being shipped into Corval lis from abroad. Benton is a cen ter "of prune prcduction, but we shipped out all our supply when the price was low and are shipping back now when the cost is more. It is the rnie of the world that only when we have to pay high for some thing that we consider it par excel lent. If the prune men could band together and force the price of their fruit up to 25. cents a pound, consumers would doubtless get a' frenzied fad for prune eating. For Rent.
