ABSOUUTEl PURE
SCHOOL REPORT.
Philomath, August 7, 1891.
Ed. Gazette. I closed mv 85th term of
school July 3l8t, in District 61, about
three miles from Elk City. The little
school house stands on "Pleasant Hill" in
sight of Siding No. 1 of the O. P. R. R. on
Sam Logan's place. The pupils who fought
bravely with me in this little intellectual
battle of four months were Samuel, Leonia,
Alice and Elvin Cloaks; Manda McClellan;
Robert Scott; Augusta Baxter; Weslie,
Burtie, Sarah and Martha Buffman; only
eleven in all. They all did nobly, and not
withstanding the much rain, and some
sickness to hinder, they brought the
average attendance op to about 00 per
cent, and merited 100 in scholarship and
deportment. We had over forty visits,
seven of which were from the school officers
of the district, who all did their duty well.
Our county superintendent paid us one
visit and paid us the high compliment that
"we were a natural school and doing good
work." J. D. Wood, Teacher. ;
Arrested. John Vernie; was arrested in
Eugene Tuesday by Sheriff Noland on a
complaint charging him with the crime of
burglary. It appears that Vernig had been
a boarder at the hotel and owing some
eleven dollars for board, his trunk was
taken and locked in a room, when this
morning he broke the lock and took his
goods away. He was tried before Justice
Kiusey at 2 o'clock Tuesday, S. W. Con
don appearing for the state and L. Bilyeu
for the defendant. The court held the de
fendant in the snm of $200 fo await the
action of the grand jury, and not giving
bonds was committed to the county jail.
Vernig was formerly a resident of Corvallis
and was brought before the court several
times while here for beating his wife.
An editor while pursuing his every day
duties is asked to do almost everything,
whether in his line of business or not. We
generally comply with such requests when
it is in our power to do- so. But when it
comes to writing a recommencatiou for a
washing machine we have always drawn the
lioeuntil we have thoroughly tested its
merits, the Washington washer not ex
septed. So when Mr. Harrington called on
us tne other day we gave him some old,
black greasy towels which had been stand
ing up in the hall for the past year, and
which we thought were beyond cleaning by
any machine. When he took the towels
we hardly expected to see hint return them,
but in a short time he brought them back,
and thep were nice and clean, too. There
fore, we feel justified in recommending this
machine to the public as being an excellent
one in every respect.

' Drowned. Last week we published an
account of the drowning of two parties
while in bathing at Clatsop beach, and this
week we must make mention of the drown
ing of Mrs. Jennie Parker, wife of the
editor of the Astorian, of Astoria, Oregon.
It seems as if there is a strong nndertow at
at Clatsop beach which was the direct cause
of the drowning in both instances. Our
Benton county resort, Yaquina Bas, has no
such dangers to be encountered and never
yet has there been anyone lost their life
while while bathing at Yaquina. Not only
is it safe in the bay, but the entire beach
for miles above Newport may be safely
trusted. The danger is not so much in the
undertow itself as in the sand giving away
and causing the bathers to lose their foot
ing. At Yaquina bay the sand is only a
few inches deep over the bed rock and is
very firm, so that if there was an undertow
it would not be very dangerous. At Nye
creek, which is about two miles north of
the hay, the beach is most favorable for
bathing, and there are many who prefer it
to the regular bttbing place at Newport.
Big creek, which is four miles north of
Newport, is also a tine place for surf bath
ing and many go in there every day. In
fact, we have the only county in the state
where surf bathing may be enjoyed with
perfect safety, and it is only a question of
time till Yaquina bay will be the acknowl
edged resort on the Pacific coast.
Geological Discovery: The saud cliff
fronting the Ocean at this place, in addition
to the grand problems they hitherto afforded
the scientific worker, now adds another
great interest to the geologist in the fact that
they are proved to be full of fossil remains.
The head and ribs of an immense sea horse
of the middle tertiary period, which found
its grave more than half a million years ago,
has just been distntered by Mr. N. S. Bent-
ley and given over by him to Prof. Condon
of the State University for preservation.
At the earnest solicitation of some Portland
and Salem gentlemen who happened to be on
the ground, Prof. Condon consented to give
a fimiliar talk of these cliff formations Thurs
day and explain how Mr, Sea Lion was cap
tured. A large audience assembled to hear
his lecture, which was a practical lesson in
geology uot soon to be forgotten by his
hearers. This will undoubtedly lead to the
discovery of many more valuable fossilf in
the cliffs about the Kesort Cit v. Don't
fail to see the fossils; you miss it.if you do.
The Toledo Coal Company is working
vigorously to reach their lower vein of coal,
which it is said, is eight feet thiok. They
have three veins at present, measuring in
all nineteen feet and hope in a short time
to be able to supply a large demand for
coal.

ihe times change and we are changed
with them," said the ltoman philosopher.
It may also be said that these changes are
not always for the better, hut often bring
retrogression and decay; and this is par
ticularly true of the circus of to-day. In
fact since the great ring-master. Death,
gove Adam Forepangh his final cue, it may
be remarked that but one really great aud
legitimate circus remains, that of Sells
Brothers, which is to exhibit at Corvallis
on luesday next. The only other tented
enterprise which can claim to rival it nas
started out on the questionable, lecherous
and nude mission of "revolutionizing the
show businnss," and has succeeded, at
least to the extent of substituting horse
ballet for the intrepid and graceful eques
trian and gymnfistic performances which
the public will always admire. In their
Hippodrome, Circuses, Moorish Caravan
Pilgrimage to Mecoa, Tropical Aquarium,
Aviary, Royal Japanese Troue. Aral ian
Nights Entertainment aud resplendent frt e
street parade, Sells Brothers present a more
abundant feast of everything which apper
tains to the most popular nf entertainment?.
In exclusive features, such as their mon
strous pair of Hiupntami. the Hairless
Horse, a whole flock of Ostriches, and the
miraculously diminutive pair of cattle, they
surpass all rivalry. Cyreiine, the word-
fainous long skirt Spanish dancer also ap
pears with vhem, aud her grace and beauty
add a wonderful charm to the performance.
The Sells Brothers' big enterprise has been
under one and the same management for a
longer period than any other in existence,
being now in its twentieth prosperous year.
Success to it, always.

turned last Sunday from a visit to Califor
nia and the Sandwich Islands. The follow
ing complimentary item appears in the last
number of the Pacific Rural Press: "We
have enjoyed this week a visit from Presi
dent Arnold of the State Agricultural Col
lege at Corvallis. Pn-sident Arnold has
felt the fatigue of long and devoted effort
as an instructor and executive of the insti
tution iu his charge, and has used his vaca
tion for a rest, having visited the Sandwich
Islands for this purpose. He returns much
refreshed and invigorated, and has returned
to his home after having visited the State
University and Stanford University. He
expressed himself much pleased with his
observations in this state. Prof. Arnold
impresses us as a most devoted and intelli
gent educator, urged on by high motives
and able to - attain results. We are sorry
his stay in this state was uot longer. Many
of our people would esteem acquaintance
with him."
