PUBLIC SCHOOL NOTES.
Five new pupils entered school Mon
dav. The enrollment at present is
about 305 one for each day iu the
year and about Gl for each teacher.
Most schools have not over 40 or 50
pupils per teacher which is as many as
a teacher can do full-justice to.
The newly seated room is now oc
cupied by Mrs. Callahan and her pu
pils. The changing of classes neces
sary to the occupying of the new room 1
and the relieving of the crowded rooms 1
occupied Monday morning. In mak- J
ing the changes it was found necessary
to divide two of the grades, placing
half in one room and half in another.
By this change no one was promoted
and no one put back but alf will con
tinue the same work as before. The
present distribution of grades gives
Miss Newton the first grade (primary),
including both chart and first reader
classes, Misses Lilly, Harris, Hoffman
and Mrs. Callahan each one and one
half grades, ami the principal tvo
grades. None of the teachers have
any idle moments on their hands,
while the principal with two full grades
of the higher classes where the actual
teaching work is more difficult, is ex
pected to have general supervision of
the whole school. He surely will have
no time to waste- The number of pu
pils in each of the six rooms is now
about equal with few or no vacant
seats.
Attendance has been qu'te regular
but within a few days a number have
been absent through fear of scarlet
fever. No pupils are allowed at school
who are known to have been exposed
to any contagious disease and with the
care taken in this regard pupils at
school are less liable to exposure to
such diseases than those on the streets.
Whenever the pupils aie in greater
danger in school than out the schools
will bt; closed by the proper authori
ties until then it is as safe or
safer for pupils to attend than not.
Pupils who have been exposed to or
afflicted by Jany contagious disease
should not return to school without a
note from the attending physician
stating when such attendance will' be
safe.
Senator Mitchell. Senator J. II.
Mitchell arrived in Salem Tuesday
night and was interviewed by a States
man reporter. The senator talked of
matters of interest to Hie state and
among other things said ho regretted
that the river and harbor appropriation
for the upper Willamette is no greater.
The harbor appropriation is satisfactory
and he believes that the next appor
tionment will recognize the needs, and
wants of this region by giving a suf
ficient sum with which to place and
keep the river open to navigation dur
ing the twelve months of the year.
Among the bills passed "by the late con
gress for the greatest good of the state
Senator Mitchell thinks the Nor thern
Pacific lands forfeiture bill is one of
the most important. It opens for
homeseekers and settlers over 3,000,
000 acres of land 111 Oregon. The
river and harbor appropriation for Ore
gon was over a million and a half, of
which nearly 200,000 goes to Yaquina
and a still larger sum for the Columbia
jetties. A light tender for the north
coast is to be built at a cost of $05,000,
and $60,000 will go for a lighthouse at
the mouth of the Columbia. The mat
ter of the life saving station' ordered
at Newport is ia charge of the de
partment and it is confidentaly expect
ed something looking towards its. es
tablishment will be done soon.
A Rancher's Mistake. The first of
the week as a well-known farmer resid
ing about fifteen miles west of Corvallis,
was returning home from Independence
in an intoxicated condition he stopped
at a farm house and undertook to. enter
without the usual formality of obtaining
permission. The man discovered that
the lady of the house was alone and re
doubled his efforts to obtain admission,
the while using insulting and obscene
language.. He was endeavoring to
make an entrance through a window
when the lady siezed a shotgun and at
tempted to discharge it toward the in
truder. The cap failed to explode, but
a second attempt was more successful.
The charge of shot grazed the side of
the man's face and he fled. The offen
der has a respectable family and when
sober is well behaved, himself, and the
incident is unfortunate for all con
cerned.. Married. At the residence of, and
by Rev. J. F. Stewait, of Albany, on
Sunday, Noy., 2nd., Mr. R. M. Percival
of Albany, and Miss J. C. Davis, of
Benton countv.
BOAED OF TRADE RESOLUTIONS.
Last Saturday evening the board of
trade held a special meeting at which
the following resolutions were adopted
by a large majority of the members
present: The propriety of passing on
such a resolution by the board of trade
was discussed at some length and with
some warmth by Messers. John Bur
nett, J. R. Bryson, James A. Cauthorn,
F. M. Johnson and others- in favor
and by Mr. V. S. McFadden against
it. The following are the resolutions
as adopted:
Whereas, We recognize the fact
that the building of the O. P. R. R.
has been of more practical benefit to
the city of Corvallis and this county
than any other enterprise or under
taking and extending in its effects to.
every person iu our county, bringing
with, its completion, cheaper and
quicker transportation and a better
markec for our products and giving
new and vigorous impetus to all the
industries in our county. We feel
that these direct and visible benefits
are largely due to the personal efforts
of Col. T. Egenton Hogg, and his as
sistants, Win. M. Hoag and Wallis
Nbsh, in building said railroad, and the
people of this community, now, as
before, regard him as a personal bene
factor and desire to express our warm
appreciation of his services and our
entire and unqualified confidence in
his ability and integrity.
Whereas, The Corvallis Times in
its last issue made an attack upon the
officers of the O. P. R. R. Co., which is
wholly unwarranted and which we re
gard as utterly malicious and untrue in
its spirit, inception and entirety; now,
therefore, beit
Resolved, That we take this occa
sion as members of the board of trade
and citizens of Corvallis to express our
condemnation of the article which a p.
peared in the last issue of the Corvallis
Times under head of "Railroad Mon
strosity," and we do not approve of the
same and unqualifiedly pronounce it
false from beginning to end and we re
gard the course of the Times on this
matter as opposed to the best interests
of our city and feel that it only repre
sents the personal malice of its pro
prietor or proprietors. Be it further
Resolved, That we have the utmost
confidence in, and respect for the
integrity of the local officers of
such company, Wm, M. Hoag
and Wallis Nash, and do. not look
upon temporary inability to meet cor.
porate liabilities as involving moral
turpitude or warranting any personal
attacks upon the general or local of
ficers of said company.
Among those who voted in favor of
the resolutions were, W. A. Wells, J.
R. Bryson, G. R. Farra, Ralston Cox,
George Eglin, James A. Cauthorn,
Lewis Wilson, F. M. Johnson, P.
Weber, J. M. Nolan, P. Avery, J. O.
Wilson, Zeph Job, S. L. Kline, T.
Graham and B. R. Jo!.
For His Third Term. That man
Peck, who was put in the penitentiary
Friday for a term of one year, coming
from Lane county, is serving his third
term in Oregon's state prison, and there
is a fourth term in good prospect for
him. He is the man who hired a
horse and buggy in Corvallis in the
summer to go to Philomath and who
led Mr. Eglin such a lively chase into
the Cascades when the rig was recover
ed, having been Abandoned by the cul
prit. Peck eluded the officers for a
time but was finally captured at Rose
burg by the sheriff of Lane, from which
county he was sent to the penitentiary
for embezzling funds belonging to the
Singer Sewing Machine Co. If Peck
gets his just deserts, he will be return
ed to the penitentiary from this county
for grand larceny as soon as as his pres
ent term expires. His case, says the
Statesman, is quite an argument in fa
vor of the unlimited sentence idea re
cently introduced in an eastern state.
By its provisions a prisoner is. always
sentenced to an unlimited term. He
is released on good behavior given
his freedom on probation, as it were.
He must report every month to some
othcer whose duty it is to keep record
of all men on probation. By this.
means an honest man can redeem hitiv
self, but a scoundrel is soon taken in
charge again, thus saving to the state
very many dollars for arrest, incarcera
tion, prosecution, etc.
Rev. C. W. Hill, of Portland, deliv
ered a most excellent sermon at the
Presbyterian church last Sabbath even
ing. The large audience present en
joyed it very much. Mr. Hill is the
State Missionary of the Baptist Asso
ciation of Oregon.
Clean up Again. A number of
our citizens owning attractive resi
dences have removed the fences from
about their premises which adds much
to their appearance. Others could do
likewise with similar results, but the
fences should be removed entirely not
toru down and allowed to lie in the
street. There are a number of in
stances in which parties have evinced
a spirit of enterprise in laying new
sidewalk, but allow the old boards to
lie alongside. Not long since, the city
council issued imperative instructions
to the marshal to order property own
ers to clean up all rubbish in alleys
and elsewhere. The marshal and the
people performed their duties in the
matter, but. the city, has lapsed into its
former condition, and it is time another
imperative order were issued. The
order, too, should include, the removal
of the boards which composed the old
fence and sidewalk about the premises
recently purchased by the cily.
Good Show This Week. The
"Chilians" at Job's theatre are giving
a fine series of specialty concerts, en
tirely free from anything offensive and
although the prices of admission are
low the show is much better than most
of the 75 cent shows that have visited
Corvallis. They are here advertising
the line of standard medicines made
by The Chilian Medicine Co. Satur
day (to-morrow) night they charge ten,
twenty, and thirty cents when they
present an extra strong bill. Dr. Bel
cher Is giving away a lot iu Ryland &
Fraziers addition to Eugene. Eveiy
one who purchases $1 worth of medi
cine (which is sold on a week's trial)
wiil receive a number. The lucky
number wins the fine lot. Consulta
tion is free. Office at the theatre.
Dr. Belcher tells you just how you
feel without asking a question. Pack
the house tomorrow night, we do not
often get such good shows.
Business Houses in Demand. On
Monday morning it was announced
that Mr. Roborts, the jeweler,, would
close up his business iu Corvallis. Be
fore that evening application for the
building which he occupies was made
by four or five persons who desired to
rent it for business purposes. Before
the foundation of Fisher's new brick
was laid he had several applications
for the rental of each room.
This s a strong argument for
the construction of commodious and
substantial brick buildings hi the bus
iness part of Corvailis,. and is evidence
that the prosperity of the city is re
tarded by alack of enterprise.
