The. 4th quarterly meeting will be held at the college next Saturday and Sunday. Services to commence Saturday evening at 7 4 o'clock by Rev. D. C. McFarland. The trains of the Oregonian Railway Co. , Limited, go only to Scio. The temporary bridge constructed over the Santiam broke down on the 4th of July and has not been repaired. Poor workmanship was the cause. And still a tide of strangers are constant ly coming into town hy every trltin and stage. Hardly a day passes but we meet some one inquiring for a bouse or farm for sale or rent. W. G. Steel, of the Resources of Oregon and Washington, and formerly one of the editors of the Albany Heiaid, was in the city on Tuesday. We acknowledge a pleas ant call. Mrs. Thomas Monteith, her daughter Lot tie, Mrs. Archie Monteith, Mrs. Duncan Monteith, all of Albany, and Miss Keichie, of Portland, made a flying trip to Corvallis on Monday last to visit friends. Dr. H W. Vincent and wife have been to the Bay on a visit, but returned Saturday night. The boarders of the Vincent House tell us they did not suffer in their absence, however, as Frank was a genial landlord and Miss Becca s. most accomplished hostess. One of the valuable staples of our State, and especially of the Willamette Valley, this year, is wool. The price has been tol erably good, though now on the decline, those who sold early realizing the best profit. From the best information we can obtain the price is now only about 25 cts. T. J. Buford started to the Bay Tuesday morning iu search of health. Mr. B. is our city agent and is authorized to receive and receipt for subscriptions to the Gazette on hiVtrip. We commend him to the kind ness of our friends wheresoever dispersed, and extend our most profound sympathy to the landlords along the route. In another column will be seen an adver tisement of tho Summit House, kept by Geo. L. Cram. Nearly everybody who has ever been to the Yaquina has stopped at this justly popular bouse and can testify to its merits. Mr. Grain has, however, added an essential feature to travelers in the way of a reduction of prices. You can now get a first-class meal for 25 cents, while the lodging and horse teed is on the same grade. Last Monday evening the Common Coun cil passed an ordinance directing that Second street be graveled from Jefferson to Monroe at the expense of property owners along the same. This improvement is needed, but ex pensive to those who have it to pay, yet as most of our citizens pay their taxes cheer fully no difficulty or complaints are to be expected. Go to L. G. Kline & Co. for draper duck. lhey also have summer goods at reduced prices. Jesse Spencer and Henry Dohse are look ing after T. J. Buford's business during his absence at the Bay. Run Over by a Hand Car. Last Satur day the little son, of Jerry McLaughlin, aged about ten years, was run over by a hand car, and badly bruised about the head and shoulders, but is now very much better. The resources of Oregon and Washington, for July ia on our table. This is a neatly gotten up and ably edited Monthly devoted, as its title would indicate, to the resource; of Oregon and Washington. It is published at Portland by David and W. G. Steel. List or Letters Remaining in tho post office at Corvallis, Benton county, Oregon. July 21, 1881. Persons calling for the same will please say "Advertised": Guess, A. D; Lawrence, John ; Miller, Arthur i Ragsdale, A. E; Wright, J. W. N. R. BARBER, P. M. A Fink Colt On last Saturdey we saw W. W. Starr, of this county, weigh his two- year-old Clydesdale colt in this city. This young horse is well proportioned, with good movement, and in color a beautiful glossy black. His weight at the time mentioned was 2020 pounds, and he was taken out of the pasture the day he was brought to town. There will be a. Sunday picnic and excur sion from Albany to Portland next Sabbath, the train leaving Albany at 6' a. m. and re turning sometime in the evenieg. Were it any other day than the Sabbath, we would say the trip would be pleasant, but we doubt if any one can desecrate that day and enjoy it. 1 1 Harvest is fairly upon us, with the prom ise of an abundant yield, and with the Ya quina Bay railroad a good prospect of liberal prices, and now the average farmer is happy. and he ought to be, for Oregon is the best country out of doors, and when her resour ces are properly developed will be the most prosperous. Married. Last Monday Dr. O. C. An brey, of Pendleton, was married to Miss Varian Bryson, of Eugene City, at the resi dence of the bride's parents. Manv of onr readers are well acquainted with Miss B. formerly a resident of this city, and a sister of onr fellow-townsman, J. R. Bryson. The Gazette wishes the newly married couple a long and pleasant journey tbrongh life. Twice this week hss the street beneath our front window been the scene of a threat ened insurrectian, but the difficulty in both cases was settled, or rather simmered down, without even so mnh as blows. In both cases the party commencing the loud talk had hunted up his man, and when he found him and talked the matter over changed bis mind, not because he could not get a fight, but because he was afraid he would. Attention Mon omental Co. No 2. The regular Monthly meeting of Monumental Co. No. 2 will be held at tha hall of Yong America, No. I. Monday the 25th day of Jul v. 1881, at 8 P. M. A full attendance si particularly requested, as the annual election of officers will be held. Certificates of membership will be given to members en titled to the same. By order of John H. Lewis, President. F. H. Sawtfll, Secretary. Handsome Present. One day this week Jesse Spencer showed us a razor case that had been made and presented to him by Frank Villardie. This case is now in use in the Barber shop of T. J. Buford, and Is really a thing of beauty, it is made of leath er, cut in the most artistic manner the Car ving being relieved by red and blue velvit, the whole make up exhibits not only perfect skill but the most refined taste in the mani facture. Frankie is emphatically an artest. Team Runaway. Last Friday as Win. Yantis, of Linn county, was driving across his farm with a team and farm wagon, the neck-yoke gave way and the pole came down. The horses immediately started to run and the pole soon ran into the ground, completely upsetting the wagon and throw ing Mr. Y. to the ground with considerable force, but without injury beyond a few painful bruises. The team freed themselves of the wagon and soon stopped without in jury, so the damage after all was but slight. .STATE MEWS, Harvesting has commenced in Jackson county. The weather has been very warm ir Port- laud the last week. The salmon catch on the Columbia has not been half as abundant as usual this year. . It is reported that in Modoc county, Cali fornia, and Lake county, Oregon, crickets are plenty and very troublesome, destroying vegetables and everything else green. On the farm of Major Moor, near North Yamhill, a twig sixteen inches in length was cut from a cherry tree, and contained 204 cherries. East Portland on last Thursday night was visited by a thief who stole a week's wash ing from a lady who had it tied up in a bundle. Another party lost half a dozen chickens. Dropped Dead. Christian Erickson, fisherman employed by Booth At Co. dropped dead in his boat where he was fish ing Thursday evening. He leaves a family at Upper Astoria. Heart disease is sup posed to be the cause of his death. Mr. Wm. Reid, of Portland informes a reporter, says the Standard, that rumors eoine through the papers to the effect "that the 99 years lease of the Oregonian Rail way company had fallen ; through with' untrue, and that the lease will probably be sizned by both parties some day next week. The body of an unknown man was found on the Ocean beach, opposite Nebarts Sand spit last Monday. The fact was at once made known to the county Judge at Astora, and the body hurried. There was nothing on him by which he could be identified, and had been dead for several days. Thomas Bonner claims to have been robbed of $180 in the back yard of the Nor ton House in Portland last Sunday night. He chums that fie was struck on the head and stunned and his money taken. He was drunk at the time of the alleged robbery, but the landlord says he had that amount of money on Saturday. Our fishermen appear to be altogether out of luck this year. The catch being so small it was hoped the price might advance, but now advices from British Columbia say the take there is immense, only limited by the means for catching and canning. This will probably keep the price down, and so canneries in the Columbia must be content with small profits this year. Standard. Stabbed. About 8 o'clock last Friday evening a man rushed into the room where a lot of Chinamen employed at the oil works below Astoria were preparing to go to bed and commenced cutting right and left. He succeeded in cutting one Chinaman severely in the head and two others about the head and face. A man has been arrested, but two other parties say he is not the man. Articles were filed in the Clerk's oflSce of Multnomah county on last Monday incorpo rating the Silver Wave Consolidated Mining Company, With a capital stock of 9100,000. The principal office of the company is to be at Portland. The object is to mine for gold and silver and to buy and sell quartz claim ledges, in this State and Idaho. The incorporators are Geo. F. Wells, Geo. Wood ward, C. W. Gardner, R. R. Irwin and Ben Simpson. Does a man ever go into a grocery store and say, "I'll give you five cents a pound for sugar," and expect to be treated with re spect t Not at all. He asks the price of sugar and pays what is asked or goes with out. But the same man will offer a price twenty per cent, below rates for a given space in the advertising columns of a news paper, and feel offended because it is hot taken. He is in the employ of the W. O. R. R. Co. and he went to campmeeting at Philo math last Sabbath accompanied by one of the fair daughters of this city. He is a horseman of no small pretensions, but when he wanted to come home he could not hitch the horse to the buggy, and might have been there yet but for the kindness of a farmer's daughter, who fastened the hones odbuggy together for him. The law seems to be slow sometimes in affording a speedy punishment'for offenders, yet we deem it best all things considered, to pursue the method of meeting out justice according to the established rules ef law. Yet some times we feel favoraby inclined toward the rope and tree used by tfce exe cutioners of 49, when we learn of outrages like the following, taken from the Standard. Mr. Scott, of Scott's Mills. Butte Creek, Marion county, who arrived in this city yesterdajjhrings news of a horrible outrage committed on Sunday morning at Crooked Finger Prairie, at the head waters of Butte Creek. A Mrs. Jackson, wife of a respect able farmer, was waylaid by a tramp who struck her over the head and outraged her in a fiendish manner. The residents on the prairie are hunting for him with shot-guns, and it is hoped that he will be found. A Mr. Kinross, of Portland Oregon who figured so prominently in the disgraceful pretended band, contest at that place during the first part of the present month has no doubt brooded over the unprecedented wrongs done to the several bands on that occasion, until it has had such an effect up on him, that the Standard chronicles the following: Mr. Kinross, the well known vocalist, took a pleasant drive on Sunday, and on his way home stopped in at Pren tices' music store, about 12 o'clock, to write a letter. When he had finished it he stepped out to put in a post-box, and for-' getting his team, kept on home. About 6 p.m. the proprietor of the livery stable, from which he had hired the outfit, called at his house to see what had become of him and the team. He was informed that it had been tied up in front of the music tore aforesaid at noon, and if it wasan't gone it was standing there still. On. repair ing to the place it was found' all right, only the horses were probably a little hungary after their six hours' feed of post meat. Captain Charles F. Powell, superintend ent of construction of the Cascade locks, is ordered by the United States to have a gov ernment tender constructed, to be in length 160 feet ; breadth of beam, 28 feet ; depth of hold, 6 feet, with two 20-inch cylinders, L foot stroke, and a steel boiler capable of sustaining 175 pounds. She is to be a steamer of fine model, with stern wheel and a neat cabin, and when completed is expect ed to be the fastest boat on the Columbia river. Wife whipping is becoming too common. Last night a fellow named Devin took it upon himself to assault a poor little woman be called his wife. She was probably not worthy of the name of wife, perhaps she was, but the brute had no right to assault her. In California a law has been enacted inflicting the penalty of the whipping post upon any man who assaults and beats a woman. That is right and we hope to see a law of the kind enacted in Oregon. The dirty brute who will assault and beat a woman deserves severe punishment, and we would not only suggest, but advocate the enactment ef a law punishing such crimes without stint or limit. Telegram. A serious railroad accident occurred at Waitsbunr on the 14th. Just as the train passed Hunts ville at a rapid rate, and as it ntrl a field near bv. a band of cattle started across the track; One of them, a large white mottled bull, as he reached the track, turned and ran down the track ahead of the train. The cars immediately caught him and be went under the forward car, which at once jumped in the air, throwing the people aboard in every direction, killing Dr. Sutherland and Ben. Hard man. The first car went off to the left, and turned over a perfect wreck, the other cars piling upon it. Five cars were smashed to pieces so that nothing appeared left but wheels and iron rods. The track was torn up and ties broken and scattered all around. As Surveyor Rockhold was returning from a surveying expedition a few days since, ays the Palouse Gazette, and when about three miles east of Cottonwood Spring, eight Chelan Indians accosted him and de manded tobacco, then money. They then took the horse by the bit and held him. Mr. Rockhold is an old frontiersman, and didn't scare worth a cent. He broke his compass over the head of one warrior, and in the struggle dismounted and fled, when the Indians killed his horse. Mr. Koc It- hold ran for a house near by but meeting the matt carrier, who had a revolver, the two returned and gathered up the broken compass, ana xonna ure none so oaaiy tabbed that he lived but a few minutes. It is further stated that the Indiana are sulky and domineering. The settlers m that part of the country only ask that guns be famished them and they will not ask the aid of government troops. SOUTHERN OREGON. J. A. Card well proposes inaugurating horse fair in Jackson county this Fall Josephine county hopes tor a railroad since her mountain passes are being ex amined. J. P. Lewis of Democrat gulch fell from a ladder leading to his hayloft on the 6th, but escaped with some painful bruises. The new bridge at Ashland cost $1,650 58, of which Jackson county paid two-thirds and the town of Ashland one-third. Grasshoppers are still doing damage in Sprngue river valley, Lake county. e Wm. Krenzer opened a German school in Jacksonville this week, which is well atten ded. Andy Davison aad Jasper Crenshaw will soon be in receipt of a steam thresher, which will be the only one of the kind in Southern Oregon. Reports from different portions of South ern Oregon indicate that crops will be gen erally good. There will be less straw than usual, as the grain is shorter, bnt neverthe less well filled. The other day, as Henry Hutchins of Sucker creek, Josephine county, was being drawn out of a' well by a horse, the harness broke when he was about 15 feet from the top, precipitating him to the bottom with great force and fracturing his right '.eg at the ankle. AsJas. Lewis, Jr., of Democrat gulch, Josephine county, was driving a span of colts to a hay -wagon on the 6th, they ran away and threw him violently to the ground, bruising him severely, but fortunately breakmz no bones. The wagon, as also a sail fence near by, were thoroughly demor alized in the fracas, however. While diging a hole in the rear of the U. Hotel, L A. Heberlie picked up several pieces of gold, some of which weighed as high as half a dollar. There is no doubt but what the site of Jacksonville contains more riches than any mine in the State. John Bolt of Applegate, who has just re turned from Galice creek, reports that Green Bros, have struck their quartz ledge by the new tunnel and found a better quality of ore than ever and plenty of it.
