CORVALLIS, OR., MAROH 20,-1880- " West Yaquina. -A syndicate composed 01 W alias JN ash, JJr. G. II. Farra, and C. II. Lee, of Cor 'vallis, J. S. Cooper, of Indepen-. dence. R. S. Strahan. A.

They pro pose to place the lots upon the market this summer. Some of the men in this Rvrwlir.atA ar in a po sition to know the futuie move ments of the Oregon Pacific -Rail-, road company, and this purchase, in connection with the Oregon De ' velopment company, may ba taken as an indication of -the early re sumption of work toward the com pletion of this road to its eastern connection. Malicious Conduct. A com plaint has been filed by B. T. George, of this county, against three of the-Dow boys and Janies Thompson, who live near Monroe, for disorderly conduct, etc. It seems that on. Sunday, March 17th, the defendants were in Mon roe and became very full of bug juice, and while . on their road home stopped and made a raid on Mr. George's barn, by turning things upside down generally, drinking a lot of cider that , was there,'and ending up by firing off pistols. Mr. George was away at the time, and his wife and children ; were pretty ' badly frightened. Deputy Sheriff St. Clair went -after these fellows on Tuesday with warrants for their arrest, but they "had skipped out, so he says, as no one could tell where they were. They mayyet find it was a costly jollification for. St. Patrick's day. Oxe Vag. A good specimen of the vagrant order was pulled by. Marshal Duim on Tuesday eve ning, and on Wednesday was taken before Recorder St. Clair. lie said his name was John Jackson, that he was no vag; he had an oc cupation, called "whittling." It seems that he is pretty handy with the knife and whittles trinkets out ' of wood and begs for his meals giving these in return. He is a 'healthy. looking tramp weighing about 180 pounds, so the recorder gave him his liberty providing he immediately leave town. He; startr ed and has probably struck' some other city jail by this time. Cor vallis is s poor place for tramps, especially "whittlers." v Y Degree of B. P. The Millers burg, Pa., Sentinelof March, 22nd, says: "Rev. W. C. Kantner, pas tor of the Evangelical church of this place, who for several years has been pursuing a special course of study under the direction of a noted institution "in Chicago, 111., received a diploma this week, con ferring upon. him the degree of Bachelor of Philosophy." Mr. Kantner was pastor of the Evan gelical church in this city about nine years ago. The Parade. The stallion pa rade which took place here .on . Wednesday was not very ' exten sive, only twelve horses appearing on the grounds. These ,- twelve, however, were very excellent specimens of horse-flesh., especially the runner Glenbrook, rand the trottors, Altago and Oneco. '.The former is owned by. G..G. Glenn, of Salem, and the latter two by McKnight Bros., of Albany. ,' -' On, Dat Chicken.

The following acrostic comes from the pen of the Yaquina bay "bard." It was at tached to a sign card of a Newport real estate firm, which is hanging in the Occidental hotel. The author ''burrowed" very deep into his imagination when he wrote it: Tou may search the whole Pacific coast. Assured I am you then can boast, . Question it nut, 'tis truth I say.
