A HAUNTED HOUSE.
This body of ours has been likened unto a
tenement. It often has a haunted apart
ment the stomach. Scared by the eldrich
sprite, dyspepsia, digestion flies and refuses
to return. What can break the spell, what
can raise the ban laid upon the unhappy
organ? We answer unhesitatingly, Hostet
ter's Stomach Bitters, and we are warranted
in the response by the recorded testimony
of myriads, covering a petiod of over a third
of a century. A course of the Bitters begun
at any stage of the affliction, and persistent
ly followed, will terminate in cures positive,
not partial. The Bitters restores tone to the
epigastric nerve, renews and purifies the
juices exuding from the cellular tissue that
act upon the food digestively, expels bile
from the stomach and the bloody and pro
motes a regular habit of body. Malaria,
kidney complaint, nervousness, rheumatism
and neuralgia, give way to this medicine.

fort has been made to make the excur
sion of the Congregational Sunday
school to-morrow a pleasant affair.
The train, which consists of four cars,
will leave Corvallis at 7 o'clock in the
morning, going as for east as Briden-
bush, the extreme end of the track,
and will leave Brdenbush at 4 o'clock
arriving in Corvallis at 8 o'clock in the
evening. This will give the excur
sionists about five hours to enjoy the
fresh mountain air. A baggage car
will be attached to the train in which
Cameron fe Co. will serve refreshments
of all kinds including lemonade and
ice cream sodas. From present indi
cations about 200 of our citizens will

Went Insane. Rev. Price, pastor
of the M. E. church, South, at Spicer,
has recently been holding revival
meetings at the Crabtree school house
in the Forks. During the course of
the meetings, whether from the ex
citement or otherwise, we were not in
formed, he became demented and is
now pronounced hopelessly insane.
Dr. Hill has been attending him and
sees little hopes for the restoration of
his mind. He was brought to Albany
Monday, examined before a comtnis
sion, declared insane and taken to
Salem on the noon train. Albany

Get Your Card. S. L. Kline has
adopted a new feature in connection
with his genera merchandise business,
as will be seen by his advertisement in
another column. To customers who
will purchase $50 worth of goods of
him during the next three months he
makes them a present of a Webster's
Unabridged Dictionary, leather bound,
A card will be furnished to any one
who will call at his store, on which
will be recorded the amount of your
purchase. This is a very valuable
present for any one.
Feagles' Examination. The. pre
liminary examination of R. L. Feagles
for the killing of Morgan Lilliard at
Big Elk, Was held in Justice Carlile's
coutt last Saturday. A number of
witnesses were examined and the evi
deuce went to show that the killing
was done in self defense, thus exhoner
ating him from the responsibility of
Lillard's death. Feagles was not
placed under arrest but had the inves
tigation brought about by his own re
quest.
The Street Railway. The re
maining rails for the road arrived last
Tuesday and all material is here ex
cept about 2 carloads of lumber which
will arrive to-morrow. The track is
laid from the postoffice to 13th and
South streets in Job's addition. Con
tractor McCoy expects to be able to
turn the road over to the company
early r.ext week. It is probable the
trial trip over the road will be made on
Wednesday or Thursday next
Lost. On Friday, May, 30th a
child's gold neck chain, valued as a
keepsake. Finder will be rewarded
by returning to Ralston Coxl
Miss May Meagher, stenographer in
the engineer office of the Oregon Pa
cific' left yesterday for San Francisco
where she will remain for two or three
weeks visiting friends and relatives.
Miss Mannice, sister of Mrs. Her
bert Nash, who has been living in Ore
gon for the past three years, returned
this week to her home in England.
A Successful Picnic In response
to a previous invitation we went on
Saturday, the 7th, to a Sunday school
picnic held unitedly by three schools
in Mr. Walker's grovs about 11 miles
southwest of Corvallis. When we ar
rived on the ground the exercises had
already begun. A good programme
had been prepared for the occasion.
We had the privilege of hearing a num
ber of recitations spoken by Sunday
school scholars, all of which were a
credit to the schools represented. Ad
dresses were also delivered by men of
experience with good effect. The ex
ercises were interspersed with excellent
music, vocal and instrumental. The
instrumental music was rendered by
Mr. Williamson, on the violin, Miss
Williamson, on the guitar, and a young
man, whose name I have forgotten, on
the organ. The music was enchanting
as it floated out among the stately firs,
and fell upon the ear of the listener
with its thrilling power. At noon
came a part of the programme in which
all partic'pated with evident relish.
Feelings of sociability found friendly
expression in the intercourse of those
present. After dinner the programme
was resumed and the people were
again entertained with recitations,
speeches and music, after which we
left the grove feeling that our first pic
nic in Oregon was both pleasant and
profitable.
Sunnyside Fruit Farms Salem
continues to grow and the building in
dustry never was so actively pursued
in that city before. This activity ex
tends to the section adjoining the city,
and each contributes to the other's
prosperity. This condition of things
gives added value to those ten acre
fruit farms at Sunnyside, four miles
south of Salem, for sale by The Ore
gon Land Co., and renders them in
creasingly desirable to those who wish
to engage in any farm specialty.
You Can Make Money. Tt is be
yond reasonable doubt that there will
be a genuine "boom" in Job's addition
in the near future. The completion
of the street railway giving residents
speedy connection with the business
centre, schools, churches, etc., opening
of streets, and buildings assured, can
not fail to result in a rapid increase in
values. This property offers induce
ments to investors possessed by no
other, and lots will show a marked ad
vance before snow flies again.
Broke His Arm. Last Saturday
evening Philip Weber, Jr., while scuf
fling with his brother George, fell in
such a manner as to break his left arm
just below the elbow. Dr. Applewhite
was called and set the broken limb
and Philip is getting along as well as
could be expected under the circum
stances. Stanley's Works. Look care
