Since the appearance of this

Valley Corvallis and Benton

We have gone to no little ex
pen.se in getting these handsome
supplements and no one has been
aked to help us in the matter,
therefore, no "kickers" are looked
for.
The Sunday school convention
which has been in. session, in. this
Cjity for the past two days has not
Iteen largely attended for a, state
convention there being not over
rty delegates present from
abroad. No delegates from some
of the most important ''towns,"

was not a clergyman present from
Albany, (only ten miles away.)

SPORTING NOTES.
AXOTHEH MKKT M )RK TROUT ABOUT
SLAUGHTERING DEER.
The Corvallis Rod and Gun Club had a
meet on Thursday, May 30th; the atten
dance gocd. Several hundred citizens turned
out to see the boys smash the Peoria black
birds. A better day could not been had,.
and the wind was light, giving the shooters
all the advantages. The first knight facing
the trap was Zeph Job, who scored a record
of 8 out of 20; Dr. Smith, 7; L. Dyer, 14;
Ed. Bier. 11; Davis, 6; C. Reed, 9; C. A.
Loud, 16; Del Davidson, 13 F. J. De Neven
5;G. W. Smith, 14. J. Dunn. 4V; Hunter,
11. C. A. Loud won first Mr. De Neveu
won the leather medal For a new club the
boys are doing well, and a lively interest is
taken by all the members. At a meeting on
Thursday eveniug five new member were
admitted, making a total of twenty-five.
Corvallis nimrods would be pleased to
have a shoot as an attraction on the 4th
here. A prize should certainly be offered
in this liue.--Albany Democrat.
The boss string of trout is by Zeph Job and
Lou Dyer. They spent Wednesday among
the riffc-ls on Rock Creek above Uenkle's
mills, and by the count from their creals
they must have been quite busy. Job's
crcal panned out 149, aud Dyer's 79. The
trout were a fine lot ami maay of them run
over one pound. Dyer says he followed Job
about three hours when he "throwed up the
sponge." In that time he had lost the soles
off both shoes and had stripped down to his
underclothes, and be has made up his miud
to be able to follow Job you must go by rail.
The writer agrees with Dyer as he has tried
several times to follow him on a snipe hunt,
and will take oath that he can outwalk
Weston or Howell-
Reports come from four miles this side of
Mary's Peak that deer are being slaughtered
most every day. It is a pity that the law
cannot reach this set of game-butchers.
The latest is that a doe was killed a few
days ago near the ranch of Mr. Bier. It is
also reported that young men from town are
out killing young China pheasants and
crouse; it is a shame and he must be a cow
ard that will murder our game birds in close
season, and when the poor ben birds are try
ing to feed and protect its young. If let
alone a few weeks the bird can then take
care of itself. This same game-butchers are
the oues that tear don d fences and trample
the farmers' grain. It is not strange that
the farmer posts bis place; he ought to have
the right to protect it with a shot gnn. If
an example could be made of a few of these
cowards it might put a stop to this whole
sale murder of our game. Little Inge.x.
The Lecture. One of the lirgeat and
the most intelligent ami rppreciative audi
ences ever gathered in this city hall was
that of last Tuesday eveniug, and they left
with a realization as bright as was their an
ticipation in coming. "Eli Perkins as a
liar"- surpassed himself, and the buttons
gathered up from the floor after the lecture
were not so much a testimonial of ravish
ing wit as they were certificates, testifying
a joke is pointed by the telling of it, and
that their age was not noticed until the
laughing was over. The young men who
were instrumental in bringing Mr. Perkins
here are entitled to thanks, and the
ninty-seven cents which they cleared and ac
knowledge receipt of. .
The Oregon Pacific Work. For the
past week a Gazette reporter has been
asked a number of times: "When is the
Oregon Paeihc going to begin work on the
eastward extension?" All that can be said
.in answer to this Question is: That it is Irani.
that the PT.amiii.it.inn liv c.narf .i..;n
