Chapman Dear B other: Your notice inviting me to be present and peak at the memorial service, on the 2nd inst., reached me late Saturday evening, mak ing it quite impossible to be there. None can regret this more than I do. It would have given me great pleasure to h;ive been present and contributed some humble part in honor of the worthy dead. When a good man dies, it is right and proper that the good he has done should be held up to view as an incentive to others, to follow in his foot steps. The life of William B. Carter, has perhaps, left as deep an impress ou Ben ton county, as that of any other man. Her interest he espoused as his own in the social circle; in the Church; in the Sabbath School; in the Good Templars Lodge and in the Masonic Lodge; and in every good word and work he was ever active, ever ready. In all of these places I have met him and can bear testimony to his uutiring ze:d. But to fully know and appreciate his worth was to know him as an intimate and confidential friend, which was my privilege during my residence in Corvallis. Here you come in contact with tint iuuei life from which, as the fountain, his outer life was formed The test of christian faith and christian character is its trial. It was my lot to stand by Brother Carter in the severest trial of his life ; when three of his loved ones were, as it were in a moment, snatch ed away. It was my privilege to witness the christian resignation of him and his now bereaved companion. But this was not mil. It was mine to stand by him through a long and tedious night and ad minister, as best I could, to his sufferings, which were as severe as falls to the lot of man toendure. When he and I expected each hour would be the last. Yet no muruier escaped his lips; no shrinking from the ap proach of the dread monster. His faith had become a living reality, it took hold of, and was ready to meet the realities of the eternal world. Yours truly in Christ. JOHN BOS WELL. Siletz, May 3, 1880. FOR DISTRICT ATTORNEY- Mr. Jas. A. Yantis, Republican nominee for prosecuting attorney of the second judi cial district, and editor of the Gazettd, has gone South, to attend court aud the ad inter im will take advantage of nis absence and say to our readers that Jimmy was nomina ted by the district convention by almost a unanimous vote, which fact, of itself, -attests his popularity. He has lived in Corvallis for 10 years, has had several years practice at law. and has made for himself a good reputation as a sound thinker and able talk er. He is sober and industrious, and his character is entirely above reproach. But these facts are well known to the people of Benton county, and we opine that they will express their appreciation of Mr. Yantis by a handsome majority in June. There is no political significance attached to the office, but it is important to elect a man who will fearlessly and faithfully do his duty as a prosecuting officer, and at the same time guard the tax-payers against unnecessary expense. MURDER. This crime is becoming almost epidemic in Oregon. One can hardly pick up a paper without seeing the heading "Horrible Mur der." On Mav 11th a shooting scrape oc curred at Astoria, in which Chas. Mitchell, a fisherman, was shot in the head by Wil liam Willliams, foreman of the Cathlamet cannery. At last accounts the wounded man was still alive, but not expected to re cover. Mitchell's wife had procured a di vorce from him, and it was in regard to this that the quarrel arose ; Mitchell claiming that Williams was instrumental in getting it. In addition comes the news from Hepp- ner, Umatilla county, that on May 10th Mr. T. D. French was shot and mortally wound ed by a sheep-herder named Murphy. This quarrel arose about some sheep that Murphy was engaged in herding, and which had eu- ' crouched on French's fields. Mr. French is aid to have been a peaceable, law-abiding citizen, and the murder was, in all respects, a cowardly, cold-blooded one, and the mur derer deserves no mercy. After committing the deed the muderer fled, but, we believe, has since been captured. New Stage Line. Robt. Martin, of Junction City, has started a stage line carrying the mail bettvesn Cona'lis and Junction. Stage leaves Junction at 1 1 a. v., arrives at Corvallis Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, at 5:30 P. m.

Bensell returned from Polk county last Saturday evening, and reports every thing booming in that section of the state. Some of our German friends had a little shooting match last Sunday, in which a dozen bottles of wine figured quite conspic uously. The Masonic Monthly, for May, is at hand. This magazine is a true exponent of Free Masonry, and no Mason should be without it. Last Monday morning our attention was called to a dressed mutton, which weighed 140 pounds. Pretty good sized mutton, that. Chas. Hughes, purser on the steamship Elder, paid Benton county a visit last week. We would like to know what he wants up here, anyhow ?

Nick Baesen, of the Palace Market has purchased a bran new hack and peddling outfit, and last Monday started on his usual summer rounds of meat peddling. Look out for him. The meeting of the Blue Ribbon club last Saturday evening, was the most interesting one that has been held for some time. There was a large turn-out, excellent music, and Rev. Atcherson delivered a very fine address. " The Laws of Life and Journal of Health," for May, is on our table. This" is very neat magzme of 160 pages, aud con tains much valuable reading matter.

' ARNOLD. Corvallis, May 10, 1880. w2 TRAGEDY AT DALLAS. There has been a statement made in rela tion to this matter, by the Standard. To correct some errors, we will give a brief sunn nary of the case : W. H. 0. Torr, late runner and night watch at the Occidental Hotel, in this city, went to Dallas on the 14th, he wished to see and have a, as he ex pressed it, "just a minutes conversation" with a Mrs. Longdon. Mr. Parsons, land lord of the Parson's House, noticing some thing peculiar iu Torr's manner, refused him an interview. Mrs. Longdon not desiring to see Torr. This seemed to exisper.ite Torr. Immediately after dinner, and while there were a number of ladies aud gentlemen sitting in the Hotel parlor, Mrs. Longdon being of the number, Torr walked in and stepping close up to Mrs. Longdon said, " take this" and fired, full at her heart, the ball striking a steel stay, did not seriously injure Mrs. L., who greatly frightened, fell over on a chair. The pistol a Smith and Weston calibre No. 32, was so close as to tear the lady's dress. Torr, no doubt, seeing this, supposed be had killed her and realiz izing the certainty of death at the hands of an excited people turned the pistol on him self, the first shot entered the left side, just below the nipple ; the second, which he delivered while yet . standing, entered the ht ad on the left side, the ball passing into the brain and coming out close to the place of entrance, passed into the ceiling over head. Torr was insensible and died in about fifteen minutes after the shooting. There is a mystery surrounding the affair so far unexplainable. Mrs. Longdon says her first acquaintance with T r, was the occasion of her visit to Corvallis, some months since, when he escorted her to the Occidental Hotel, that from the first his conduct was disagreeable, she changed her place of abode on account of his constant attention to her, it would seem to be a case of love at lorge range. Mrs. Longdon, in Polk county, where she is known, bears an excellent reputation, there is no divorce pending between her and her husband, a gentleman of good standing. FOREST GROVE Ed. Gazette : It may nt be generally known, but is "nevertheless true, that at Forest Grove there is not a single grog shop. The lots were sold, or donated, when the town was laid off, with the proviso in each deed of conveyance to every lot, that no spirituous liquours, should ever be made or sold or used as a beverage upon these lots. The Pacific University and Tualitin Academy are located there, and all the Fac ulty and teachers are abstainers ; aud temp tation to students there are not at hand to debauch their morals, and hurl them down to ruin by strong drink. The town is laid off on a grand scale. Each lot is 200 feet square ; the streets are 85 feet wide. The campus contains thirty acres of and on a beautiful eminence, nearly in the center of the city. The town in its appearance and location is charming, and well arranged. The institutions of learning there, and the cause of Christianity are well eupported, and are prospering. Arrests for crime are very rare; order and quiet prevail, and the public walks and drainage show the spirit, sound sense and policy of the city fathers there. Doubts have arisen lately, in the minds of some who desired such a result, as to whether such restriction on the lots in Forest Grove would carry itself forward in subsequent sales and transfers of such lots ; but a re cent decision in the U. S. Court in Nevada, ou appeal sets this question at rest. The restriction remains for all time to come. I had the pleasure of visiting the Grove and its noble people early iu last mouth, and am free to declare that I have seen no place in Oregon that in all respects is superior to Forest Grove iu location, health, scenery, quiet and good order. Parents may well entrust their children to the Faculty there for thorough education and moral training. The pestilential Upas does not spread its branches and send forth its deadly poison over Forest dfrove. The churches there are large and commodious, and are well attend ed. David "Newsome. From Soda vi lle. "J. D. W.", writing faotn Sodaville. bubbles over in the follow ing words: "Hurrah for Corvailis. Two railroads and a river. The prettiest loca tion in the state. Good country all arouud it. Tear down the old houses and build new ones ; fix up the sidewalks ; let all its inhabitants be sober and industrious, and then, I ask, where can it be beat t True greatness and glory depend more on inward purity than outward appearances. Remem ber it, Corvallis, and don't get too proud." New Trial. The Oregonian of 15th inst., say 8: George Collins, who has been convicted of the crime of murder in the second degree for the killing of Clark Hamilton was to have been sentenced Wednesday morning by Judge Bellinger, but the time iu which to rile a motion for a ne .v trial was extended to this (Saturday) morn ing. Complimentary Notice. The Roseburg Plaindealcr of the 15th inst., has the follow ing and says : Mr. Jas. A. Yantis, Repub lican nominee for District Attorney of the Second Judicial District, is iu the city. Mr. Yantis is a gentleman of more than ordinary ability. He has an experience of more than six years as an attorney and has built up quite an extensive practice. His character is above reproach. He is eminently fitted for the position selected and will make an excellent and efficient officer. We will give Mr. Yantis a more extended notice next week. We speak knowingly when we assert that Hall's Vegetable Sicilian Hair Renewer is the best article of the kind sold on the American Continent. Personal trial has demonstrated this, and the article is an ele gant and cleanly one, without which we think no toilet complete. Messrs. John ston, Holloway ft Co., 602 Arch street, Philadelphia, are the agents for the article, and when our Philadelphia friends return from Cape May, they should certainly pro cure some of it. We know of no such arti cle extant for the hair, and thus speak in such decided and emphatic terms. Ocean For.m.Cape May, K. J. DIED. In this city, May 13th. of typhoid fever, Josiah S.
