What it needs is some answers." Presbyterian church, M. S Bush, pastor. Worship 11 a. m., subject, "A Silent People." Even ing sermon at 8, subject, "Our English Bible." ; Albany Herald: Dr. K. A. J. ; Mackenzie and associates of Port land, who recently went to San Francisco to aid the suffering peo ple of that city, passed through Al bany on their way home. Dr. Mackenzie was indignant at the j action of a San Francisco physician for introducing a resolution in a meeting of professional men asking that the Oregon party be asked to leave the city, as they were taking - bread out 01 the mouths of the pro fession in San Francisco." Dr. Mackenzie stated that the offending physician was not arepresentative of the profession in San Francisco. This afternoon, a suit was filed in the circuit court, in which the Water Board, acting for the city of Corvallis, brings condemnation proceedings to make good the right Of the people of Corvallis to pipe Rock Creek water into this city and use it for domestic and other pur poses. Dr. Farra is named as de fendant and it is on account of the , sawmill constructed on Greasy , by Snow and Sons, now owned by Dr. Farra, that the suit is brought The proceeding, after it gets a hear ing in court, is understood to make 1 1 1 m. J 1 C . . 1 it impossible ior toe uikidk 01 me water by the city to be delayed by injunctions or otherwise. It is expected now that the mountain water system will be com pleted by Tune isth. This at kast will be the case unless there be delay in getting pipe. With a small gang of men Engineer Miller made 1,000 feet of drenching yesterday; Pipe for the city mains is arriving every few days. In all, ther will be 14 miles of pipe in the city dis tribution system, making 28 miles in all. So far, the constrnction cost is entirely within the estimate of Engineer Miller, and it is ex pected by Mr. Miller that the same conditions will continue to prevail and the final cost be within the sum originally named for the work. Re ports that the Water Board is out of funds are silly. Engineer Miller says the pipe line, as shown by re cent tests under water pressure is the best one he has ever seen. Sev eral of the foremen engaged on the work made the" same statement. A fine inter-collegiate debate between the state colleges of Ore gon and Washington occurred Sat - urday evening at O. A. C. armory. It was not as well attended by 50 or 600 per cent as is the case with basket ball or foot ball games. Per haps it was not as well advertised. The outcome was the decision of one judge for O. A. C. and the vic tory for Pullman. The question was, "Resolved, that aside from its constitutionaly, this government ought to support a general income tax." The O. A. C. team was, Miss Minette Phillips, Miles Bel den and Mark Weatherford, leader, and they had the affirmative. Frank Kreazer was leader of the Pullman men and his colleagues were Mr. Todd and Mr. Chapman. It was apparent from the first that the Washingtons were?more experi enced in forsenic athletics than were the Oregonians. Their lead er, whose cyclone finish was one of the decidedly interesting features of the eveningis said to have been the hero of nine 'debating contests. He, as well as his colleagues arrayed their arguments with much force and consummate system. On the other hand, the efforts of the O. A. C. debaters were very creditable. In rebuttal, Mark Weatherford was undoubtedly the star of the even ing, Mr. Kreager even, not except ed. Some of Mr. Weatherford's rejoinders were absolutely brilliant and though they came from a boy of 20, would have done credit to an orator of mature years and long ex perience. The debate is to be an nual hereafter, nud next year the O. A. C. team will go to Pullman. There will be service at Ply mouth Sunday afternoon at 3. German preaching Sunday at 2 p. m. at the Presbyterian church. All are welcome. Miss Leona Webber is expect ed to arrive tomorrow from Pert land for a visit with Miss Mary Danneman.

Carpenters and painters are finishing work on Grandma Biggs' house which was moved from the Elgin place near the college to lots belonging to Judge Wattrs in the north part of the city. All will be ready Monday for Mrs. Biggs' be longings. The Levi Wooster dray horses did a stunt on their own account out at the S. P. depot Wednesday morning. Loud cries of "Whoa, whoa" attracted the attention of residents in the neighborhood and they beheld the big- team circling around and around the depot, pur sued by a crowd of men and boys. The animals finally headed towards town but were caught without dam age save a broken strap or two. The new proprietors of the Centennial Meat Market assumed the management Thursday morn ing, and business is opening up quite satisfactorily. It is the in tention of the managers to cater to the best trade of the city. . As an earnest of their purpose to supply the best, the new management pur chased from P. Avery a number of fine steers which had ben stall-fed for a considerable time and which were in prime condition. The announcement of the Times that black bass was be ing tanen in tne Willamette river and its bayous, seemed to electrify the town and the following Sunday there was an exodus for those local ities which promised any prospect of sport. Pretty much all the boys were successful to a limited degree only, but then there are some things that are not intuitive and catching bass is one of them. You have got to get Roy Raber to tell you all about it before you are like ly to have success. Roy i3 the first person to discover the habits of bass in this locality and up to date he is the only person who has been able to successfully take them.
