Wednesday afternoon the farm residence of Mack Porter, on the state road, with almost its entire contents, was totally destroyed by fire. Mr. Porter and a grandson were in the building at the time the flames were discovered, but being in the upper story the flames were not observed until it was so well under way. that it was deemed use less to undertake to stay its des truction of the building. The oc cupants lent their endeavors to the rescue of lurniture but little of that was removed to a place of safety before the flames drove the work ers from the house. The loss is from two to three thousand dollars. It is believed th.-n there was no in surance.

The insinuating craze made its appearance in Corvallis about twoj weeks ago, since which time it has marvelously spread, and laid uc- cesstul siege to the innermost cir cles of our best society. The foun dation of the disease for such it is claimed to be by competent author ity is said to be a peculiar mi-' crobe, the character of which, it is believed; is very similar to that producing "brain storm." There is no known remedy. It just has to run it course. The craze . has attacked,' with great virulency, the organization known as the Barnacle Club. At the club's solicitation, the skating rink was exclusively given over two evenings to the members tn order to allow them full scope for exercise ot the various forms in which it has taken hold upon the victims. Previous to these two events the lady Barnacles had been haunting the link morning and afternoon hence the superior polish which at taches to their gyrations as com pared to those of the male Barnacles (Jnejevening in the earlier time of the epidemic was seen the lithe form, of E. E. Wilson band-in-hand with Tommy Jones, scaling the outer circle of the rink, but before the close of the session he had so tar surmounted bis difficulties as to glide in the inner cire'e. Upon the second eveninghetore round and round the room with a velocity equal to Lhat of a real Kansas cy clone, and seemed to have equally as little regard for what was in his coutse. buch was the marked progress of Mr. Wilson. The evening; performances par took of the nature of a dime mu seum. Much had been said during the week by Prof, McKellips about his performances on rollers, but his reputation as a skater was clouded at once when he shuffled onto the floor in full dress suit and bearing a bottle of arnica and a box of his widely known pain pills. It is strange how this form of rollerism affects people. Bob John son for example, when on the floor imagined that he was a locomotive, and he was evidently not intending any fake business.
