INCENDIARY WORK.
EXCURSION.
At about midnight of the 26th ult.
a fire was discovered in the building
belonging to Messrs. Additon and Cal
lahan, and known as the old foundry,
the corner of Third and Jackson
streets. Ihe alarm was given and the
fire department was soon on the scene
but only in time to prevent the destruc
tion of adjacent property. The build
ing was ussd as a stable and a quantity
of hay, two cows, a wagon and some
other property was burned. Two
horses which were in the building
when the fire broke out, escaped, but
were badly burned. The total loss is
variously estimated at from $1200 to
$1500.
Soon after the roof of the burning
building fell in a second alarm was
sounded, it having been discovered
that the barn of Mr. Philips and one
adjacent belonging to Mr. Wills were
on fire in the southern portion of the
city. One hose company was left to
control the fire in the old foundry
while ome hose, the engine and the H.
& L. company broke away for the long
run to the second fire. The hook and
adder company, however, was the
only part of the department that could
do effective work as there was no
water in reach of the engine or hose.
By the utmost efforts of the H. fc L.
boys and the citizens the adjoining resi
dences were saved. The stables were
a total loss and their value with con
tents was perhaps $700. There is no
doubt that these fires were of incen
diary origin.
Abundant Cherry Crop. The
abundance of bloom upon the cherry
trees this year is remarkable and indi
cations point to an unusually large
crop of the fruit. The birds which
usually ravage this fruit in the bloom
have not been troublesome this season.
They have not been so numerous and
confined their depredations to a limited
variety of the trees. The evidence of
the decided choice of these birds for a
certain variety of embryo cherry may
have recently been seen in the orchard
of Mrs. St. German, in the northern
portion of the city, in which one large
tree was completely stripped of its
bloom while the other trees appeared
to have not been visited by the pests.
A Gazette reporter was informed
that this particular tree was attacked
first each season.
A special train will leave Corvallis,
Tuesday morning, May 5th, at 7:15
a. m. sharp to meet President Harrison
at Albany. The passengers can return
on any regular tram. 1 ickets tor
