ENTERTAINMENT TO NIGHT.
Don't forget the Good Templar Neck-tie
sociable, literary and musical entertainment
this evening. It is the first time in many
years, that Excelsior Lodge has requested a
benefit from our citizens, and the City Hall
should be crowded. Prof. McElroy has
kindly volunteered his services in drilling
some of the amateur readers, while Prof.
Milner leader of the Second Brigade Band,
has kindly tendered the servieee'of his band,
free ot charge, on this occasion'.' The Lodge,
as well as the committee of arrangements,
are very grateful for these manifestations of
special favor from parties not connecte 1
with our organization. As will be seen by
programmes and small bills, no pains ha-e
been spared to make it a p easant and en
joyable affair. Come out, everybody old
and young. If you dou't want to take a
''nftck-tie" and "pair off," you can have
the worth' of your two bits in the literary
exercises and music and in seeing others
enjoy themselves. A genuine " good time"
is confidently expected. Ladic3- who pro
pose' to donate cake, peaches, etc., will
please send theih to the hall, or report to
the committee as- early to-day as four
o'clock, P. M.
Poetic Contributions. We would pri
vately suggest to poet laureates, who furnish
original "poems" for the Gazette, that they
carefully copy their productions, with due
regard to punctuation, capital letters, lines,
verses, etc., before sending them to us. In
Ihe first place we have not the time to re
write and prepare them for the printer; and
in the second place we are not of a poetic
turn of mind, and would be liable to make
ourselves or our contributors appear ridicu
fotts, in an attempt to "fix up" their produc
tions. News items we can "fix up," and
only care to have the facts in as brief and
concise manner as possible. Several poetic
effusions, possibly of great merit, have been
consigned to the waste-baiket for lack of
proper care on the part of the author in
prej)ariiig the same for the printer. Will
poetic coutriRutor3 pleasi make a note of
this, as we never return declined articles,
unless postage stamps, for that purpose, ac
company the same. .
Dr. Watts CoMMW. A postal card from
Dkv J.- XV. Watts, who is having such won
derful success in the temperance lecture
field, informs us that he will be in Corvaliia
for the purpose of lecturing on temperance,
"to-morrow evening, and as- often on Sunday
as th friends of the cans may desire or as
may be thought best. Hon. F. A. Oheno
weth, Dr. J. R. Baylcy, and other promi
nent citzens, have received postal cards
from' the Doctor and we have no doubt am
ple arrangements will be made to give him
a cordial welcome, arid fall houses during
his stay. In Eugene nearly half the p-ipu-lation
of the city are Enrolled as members
Of the Blue Ribbon Club. Why not do
likewise in Corvallis ? Now is the time for
tine' friends of temperance and morality to
make a forward movement. Turn out,
eVerylody, and hear Dr. Watts. Due no
tice will be given of time and place of
lecfures.
Demoralizing. No unprejudiced indi
vidual cotild witness the scenes upon our
Streets, for the past week, without being
convinced tnat horse-racing is demoralizing
in its denlency. The races of Tuesday last
brong'it together some very rough charac
ters, and as a natural consequence, drinking,
profanity, blasphemy, and fighting, were
indulged in freely. The Tharp Brothers,
who. about a vear auo, ran a race with a
horse owned in this county, and cariicd
away a large amount of money, made anoth
er race with Mr. W. R. Baker's horse, but
were not so successful this time. It is ru
riiored that they lost all their money. Horse
racing is a bad business, at any time, view
ed from our standpoint, but at this season
of the year, in Oregon, it is barbarous, and
should be restrained by a law for the pre
vention of cruelty to animals.
ElkctioN Op Officers. At a regular
meeting of Excelsior Lodge. No. 9, E O. G.
T., held at Templar's Hall, last Friday even
ing, the following officers were installed for

Lively Orders. Upon- receiving in
structions to receive any money that has
been1 declared a legal tender for money or
ders, a-rutf was made upon otir " Nasby,"
and his order book was soon exhausted,
which has caused much grumbling for a few
days past. Greenbacks are becoming so
scarce and bard to get, in this community,
that it seemed almost a public necessity
that coin should be taken in exchange for
postal orders. Mr. Barber says he is au
thorized to take silver only to the amount
of $5. Rush in your orders, his book has
arrcveu.
Loaf Sugar Drips very choice, at Ray's.
Fresh Roasted Coffee, at Ray's.
Cheddar Cheese new, at Ray's.
J. H. Lewis, as agent of Max. Friendlev.

I he heavy rams, of the past week, have
raised the river to good boating stage, to the
uengns or me steamboat men.
The game law of Oregon makes it a crime
to shoot or trap grouse between the first of
January and the first of July.
If yon want to have a "good time," and
3t the same time do "good," go to the Good
Templar festival, this evening.
Now is the time to secure valuable land,
cheap suitable for two farms. See adver
tisement of E. Marple.
Max Friendly made good use of the late
rise in Mary's river in bringing down logs.
He is preparing to supply the market with
first-class lumber.
The tri-weekly mail bptween this city and
Junction has been suspended ; and in lieu
thereof a daily mail baa been established be
tween Junction and Monroe.
Mr. John Rock, of Oregon City, who has
been spending some months in this city,
buying wheat, returned home a few days
since.
i. V.. Komnsan, ot Albany, lias been in
the city for a few days, looking after busi
ness. He reports the lumber business lively
in Albany, and is doing well.
The Oregon State Woman Suffrage Asso
ciation, Mrs. A. J. Duniway, President, met
in seventh annual convention, in Portland,
hist Tuesday. A large audience was in at
tendance. There- has been no snow in Corvallis dur
ing t!ie past week, but the foot hills, just
west of the city were mantled in whits sev
eral times but it did nut remain long at a
time.
The revival meetings at Philomath, which
have been in progress for the past six wee'ts,
still .continue, and large accessions have
been made to the U. B. Church, at that
place.
J. Henry Brown, Esq., of Salem, repre
sentative of the "art preservative," and
beeretary of the Oregon- Pioneer Society,
has been spending a few days in visiting
friends and relatives in this city.
Our Liberty job press ia as good as new,
and runs like a sewing machine. Jl Henry
Brou n overhauled an I cleane 1 it up for use.
Nothing like being useful as well as orna
mental. This last remark applies to Brown,
of course.
If you want any house moving, raising or
leveling done, cail on Alpbin & Lord. We
intimated to "Jack," last Monday morn
ing, that onr offi e floor, where our job pre ss
s:oo;, was not level. In a tew minutes lie
and Lord were on hand, with all the tools
ne.-essary, au 1 the floor now answers to the
level exactly.
The G io 1 Templar entertain nent an I so
ciable, this evening, promises to be a very
enjoyable affair. From the number of hand
some neck-iies the ladies have prepared,
they doubtless expect the hall will lie crowd
el. Hope tluy will not be disappointed.
The postal car l, announ dnj service in
the Episcopal church, last Sabbath, came to
hand after we had gone to 'press. Notices
must be received by Wednesday's mail to
secure insertion, as we go to press early on
Thursday.
Valentines. For the neatest, most
charming an 1 original Valentines, go to E.
Rosenthal, dealer in gents furnishing goods,
c girs, tobacco, candies, etc., etc. The best
goods an 1 the che ipest place in Corvallis.
The second quarterly meeting of the M.
E. Church for Corvallis charge, will be held
in Corvallis on the 15th and 1 6th inst., com
mencing at 1:30 P. M. on Saturday. It is
the intention of the pastor to protract the
m eting. Rev. J. 8. McCain, P. K, will
officiate.
The Oregon Sfcaats Zeitwitj, of Portland,
comes to hanl, again ; but with our limited
knowledge of the German, we do not feel
warrante I in giving extracts therefrom, and
therefore turn it over to a German friend--but
will send the Oazette in exchange all
the s?.me, if desired.
The Roseburg Daily Plaindealer, C. Y.
Benjamin, publisher, is the latest applicant
for editorial amenities. It is a neat, spicy
little paper, and deserves success, even if it
does not supply a want " loiigTelt" in Rose
burg. Mr. William Love, a well known dairy
man living on the Columbia Slough, near
Portland, committed suicide by drowning
himself on list incsday. Body rr-covere I.
Temporary insanity, produced by long ill
ness, is assigned as cause. He leaves a large
family.
Excelsior Lodge, I O. G. T, i3 in a mo3t
flourishing and prosperous condition. Sixty-six
members, in good standing, were re
porte I for last quarter, and new members
aro still coming in. At a special meetini,
last Monday evening, there were two ini
tiations. C. H. Whitney, who has served for sev
eral tjrm3, most efficiently, as Secretary of
Excelsior Lodge, and who is now XV. C. T.,
of the Lodge, contemplates leaving the city
soon. The Lodge will miss him, as he is an
earnest, indefatigable worker.
Mr. W. H. Goldsen, of this place, is gen
eral agent for tbe'Pacific Coast for a new
process of preserving meat, fish, vegetables,
et;., which will greatly lesseu the use of
salt. Particulars soon.
The revival meetings in the Evangelical
church, of this cit-, which hae ben in pro
gress for over two weeks, closed last Wednes
day evening. Six conversions, and a num
ber of anxiou3 inquirers after salvation, are
among the fruits of this; meetings. Many
Christians, also, have beeu greatly b!es3ed.
Rev. Mr. Kantner was so exhausted by in
cessant labor, that rest was absolutely nec
essary, hence the meetings for the present,
are cli.sed.
Our subscription list to the Gazette is
constantly swelling, and the most cheering
compliments are received from all parts of
the Site upon the marked improvement of
our piper, since discarding the "patent out
side." The Standard is the only paper in
the Siate that affects ignorance of the fact
that we had dropped the "patent outside"
on the first of January, 1879. Bat that
was only for the purpns; of giving vent to a
characteristic "growl," because we happened
to make favorable mention of the Oregonrun.

NOTICE.
u
If every individual and every family
would bestow a tithe of the requisite in any
ordinary attack of acute disease, in strving
to prevent and ward off its attacks, there
would rarely be any use for calling in the
aid of the physician. In all ordinary de
rangements of the stomach, bowels, liver
or kideys, you need only a few doses of
Frese's Hamburg Tea.
Frctfy Mouths
Should have pretty teeth in them, but it is
not unusual to see between rosy lip3, teeth
discolored and "decaying through neg'eet.
This disfiguring defect should be repaired
without delay, by using fragrant tSOZO
DO.NT. which removes every particle of
tartar from the teeth and renders them
snowy white. This admirable aid to beauty
is perfectly harmless and exhales a most
delightful aromi, and is in every respect
preferable to the ordinary tooth pastes and
powders. Try it and see for yourself.
Consumption Cured.
An old physician retired from active prac
tice, having had plaeed in his hands by an
East Indian missionary the formula of a sim
ple vegetable remedy for th ; speedy and per
manent cure of Consumption, Bronchitis,
Catarrh, Asthma, and all Throat and Lung
affections, also a positive and radical cure
for General Debility and all nervous com
plaints, after having thoroughly tested its
wonderful curative powers in thousands of
cases, feels it his duty to make it known
to his suffering fellows. The receipe will be
sent free of charge to all who desire it, with
full directions for preparing and successfully
using. Address with stamp, naming this
paper Dr. J. O. Stone, 44 North Ninth
Street, Philadeloha, Pa.
Liver is Kin?.
The Liver is the imperial organ of the
whole human system, as it controls the life,
health and happiness of man. When it is
disturbed in its proper action, all kinds of
ailments arc the natural result. The diges
tion of food, the movements of the heart
and blood, the action of the brain and nerv
ous system, are all immediately connected
with the workings of the Liver. It has
been successfully proved that Green's Au

from an unhealthy condition of the Liver

Slightly in Zrror. Last wept . in
speaking of the burial of young Braiiley, we
said the County Judge took charge of the
remains. We should have said Mr. August
Knight, undertaker, instead. Immediately
upen the body being brought to this city,
Mr. Knight took charge of, and prepared it
for decent burial. Wo always aim to give
credit where credit is due bat, like other
mortals-, we sometimes make mistakes.
Narrow Escape. From Messra. James
Chambers and M. J. Conner, w'io rave u?
a call yesterday, we learned of trie narrow
escape from drowning of a couple of log;er3
named Jas. Patterson end Geo. Rubarts.
These men, in small boats, concluded they
would go over the dam at Chambers' mill,
on the Luckiamute, in King's valley. After
making the plunge, their boats were drawn,
by force of the whirl of the waters, under
the dam, and came near perishing before be
ine rescued from their perilous situation.
Not much fun in that kind of work.
Corvallis Bank. The new bank of W.
B. Hamilton & Co., of this city, is now in
full blast. Of course it will take a little
time to complete arrangements for exchange
with other banks. The managers of the
Corvallis Bank being solid, responsible men,
jrives them great advantage upon the start.
They are now ready for deposits, loans, lim
ited exchange, etc.
New Market. Mr. John S. Baker, has
given possession of the Empire Market,
which was purcltased by Nick Baesen, as
heretofore announced. Mr. Baker has re
moved his market to the building formerly
occupied as Cook's saloon, (and not Sellers',
as announced last week,) and changed the
name to City Market, where he will be
pleased to see all his old customers and
some new ones, also. He keeps constantly
on hand the best meats to be had in the
country.
By Universal Accord,
Ayer's Cathartic Pills are the best' of all
purgatives for family use. They are the
product of long, laborious, and successful
chemical investigation, and their extensive
use, by Physicians in their practice, and by
all civilized nations, proves them the best
and most effectual purgative Pill that medi
cal science can devise. Being purely veget
able no harm can arise from their use. In
intrinsic value and curative powers no other
Pills can be compared with them, and every
person, knowing their virtues, will employ
them, when needed. They keep the system
in perfect order, and maintain in healthy
action the whole machinery of life. Mild,
searchirTg-and effectual, they are specially
adapted to the needs of the digestive appa
ratus, derangements ot wnicn iney prevent
anil cure, if timely taken. They are the
best and safest physic to employ for chil
dren and weakened constitutions, where a
mild, but effectual, cathartic is required.
