Judge Woodward " says the
statements of Mr. Prettynian in
which it is alleged that Fatrmount
precinct is discriminated against by
the Benton county court, - which
statements appeared in Friday's
Times, are not true.- He says lum
ber and other materials for public
uses in that precinct have been uni
formly suppliedas required. With
reference to -tiling that was not fur
nished, Judge Woodward says that
it is impossible to get tiling at any
price on account of the scarcity, but
that when a supply is available

There is a Corvallis girl who is
happy. She is Miss Anna Maxfield,
who has been employed lor several
years in the home of Walter Taylor.
Out of her earnings she saved
enough to buy a handsome ' gold
watch, which she highly prized.
She rode on , her wheel ta. ? Kings
Valley and lost the watch. It was
restoredto her Saturday, by J. L.
Govlers farmet living near Wellsi
Hefead of the-loss in a copy of. the
Times which he saw at 'Independ
ence. ZHe had: found : the .watcUi
and Saturday aiternoon, he mounted
his horse and rode to Corvallis, and
delivered the trinket to the owner.
His only charge was one dollar, for
the trouble of the 20 mile ride he
made to deliver the watch.-
The dispatches relate that a
cow ate a lot of dynamite, the other
day, and died Iron; the poisonous
effects. : Her owner didn t wan t J
lose uer aii.ogei.aci:, auu icu uci car
cass to the hogs. Fourteen of the
latter died. ; That reminded a local
citizen of another dynamite case,
and he told, this one. A goat on
his father s home came across a
stick of dynamite in the yard and
ate it, paper and all. Heretofore)
it naa Deen in tne naDii 01 coming
on the famiiy porch and always at
sncn times rmotner woum anve tne
geat off with a broom." But after
that she didn' do it any more, no
matter how many times the goat
ca me on the porch . She . realized
that the billy - was loaded with dy
namite, and did not strike mm with
the broom for fear there would be

Ballooning has become popu

One sent up Saturday night. inter

It sailed gracefully upward until at
a height of half a mile, perhaps. it
struck a current of air and was di
verted swiftly ; to the nertheast,
where, as a star hardly, visible to
the naked eye, it finally disappear
ed. One sent up a few nights ago
rose almost straight up to a height
of what seemed to be. about a mile
and a half and disappeared. A
bunch of excelsior as big as a bis
cuit below the aperture at the bot
tom ot the balloon furnishes the
gas. It is saturated with a chem
ical -and when the excelsior is light
ed, the device is in complete working-
order. When turned adrift it
does the rest:'
