Willamette Grange are preparing to hold their annual fair at their hall a few miles south of Corvallis on Thursday, October 1st. They expect to have a big time and extend an invitation to all who may desire to be present. The Grismer-Davis Co is booked to ap poar at Job's Theatre in celebrated play "Burglar," on the 8th of October. This company needs no recommendation to the people of Corvallis. An excellent entertain ment is assured. F..M. Johnson brought his family out from the seaside last Saturday after a sum mer's sojourn. They have been unfortu nate in not enjoying the best of health, but none the less experienced a pleasant outing through the warm spell, W. J.

August has been kept pretty close at his work for miny months, and he will need the refreshing elements of country life for several days. Hon. John M. Osburn was robbed at the state fair last week of a five-dollar gold piece. The robber, however, did not com pensate himself much for his efforts, as the money was counterfeit, and came into Mr. Osburn's hands by some oversight. It won't do for boys under eighteen to meander the streets of Corvallis, after the hour of nine o'clock p. m. The city council has wisely legislated on this matter, aud the boy w ho refnses to give credence to the warning of the fire bell is liable to arrest and line. Bush Wilson got in from the Bay last week. He has been busy at work building a road on his seaside premises during the past two months, and succeeded admirably. The outdoor exercise has done Bush much good physically and he says ho never felt better in years. Henry Pape and family left for Jackson ville last Tuesday, where they go for the purpose of taking their sick baby in hopes that a change may prove beneficial. The sympathy of this community will go with them, and we trust that the suffering little one will be speedily relieved. E. W. Fisher is a rustler when he gets flat down to business. Everjbody has a good word for him at present on account of the paved sidewalk in front of his brick building on Main street. This helps the looks of the town, and would indicate metropolitan maneuvers to outsiders. Mr. E. Milner, who was reported to have taken his old post at the Southern Pacific depot, has not moved into tbe city yet, as was announced. Typhoid fever has been .afflicting his 'family, two of his daughters being yery low with the dreadful disease at the same time. He will remove here on their recovery, however. We understand that Prof. E. Elton Blanchard of the public schools, will give Drivate instructions in elocution to a linfit- ed number of students who may wish the drill from the public schools or elsewhere. Prof. Blanchard has had special training with the eminent John W. Rusk, of Cleve land. Ohio, and will use his system. For further information inquire at his residence. Work on the government jetty is pro rresin ranidlv at the Bay, and there is about 80,000 left to carry on the work to the next appropriation. A hard rock has been encountered on the north side, but it is hoped they will soon pass the reef and. find soft rock asain. In a few days they will be depositing rock on the south jetty, as the hoisting works are nearly reaay lor business. The crontle rain durinz the first of the week put on wintry wetness, and came down iu considerable quantities at inter vals. It will not be a "nrophetable" season- for the weather speculators, if the present conditions continue to hold out, out; inai will not interfere with our prospective profitable productions the coming year. We might remark that winter is neaving Jonah in the lap of fall. TT. .1. Karthauer and his sister Mrs. Rerchtold were most happily surprised a few days since by the arrival of their uncle and aunt Mr. and Mrs. Henry Kirchoff from Chicago, 111. They intend to visit here until about October 15th, when they will continue their iourney to points of in terest in California, returning home by way of Salt Lake City, Denver, etc. J. hey are well pleased with Oregon.

A New York concern, manufactures o. ! an ammonia baking powder boasts that its) yearly profits are over a million dollars. While, perhaps, none of the makers of alum powders individually can Bhow so larger earnings yet their profits are enormous. A business so profitable, will always. at' tract to itself those whose greed will cause them to utterly disregard the affect their" ' traffic may have upon the health or life - of others. Alum baking powders are introduced largely by gifts, prizes and lottery schemes, A piece of glassware or china, a child's wa gon, sled, a pewter spoon, or some other at' tide of attractive appearance, bnt of small' intrinsic value or cost is given with ecb purchase or a number is attached to ths cat which entitles the customer to a similarly numbered article or a prize of some kind. It is in some such way as this that the trade in alum and ammonia baking powders. which Ikis now attained such giant propor tions and their consumption by the public which has reached an extent which is truly alarming. The highest authorities of all countries condemn the use of alum in bread w;thoufc reserve. In America the most distinguished physicians, chemists and hygienists have declared that the traffic in alum baking pow ders should be suppressed by law. In Eng land and France where the subject of . pure food, and its effect upon the system, has been more fully considered and made the subject of extended experiments by the sci entists, so serious a matter is the use of alum in bread or other food considered, to be, that most stringent laws have been enacted to prevent it. These laws are rigidly en forced, and the sale of alum baking powders would not be permitted lor an hour. Any one who attempted to make them for use in. food, or attempted to use them for raising bread, biscuit or cake would suffer severe penalties. The ill effects upon the syBtem of food raised by alum baking powders are the more dangerous because of their insidious character. It would be less dangerous to' the community were it fatal at once, for then such food would be avoided; but their deleterious action because imperceptible at first is no less certain. The puckering effect which alum has when taking in the mouth is familiar to everyone. Physicians say this same effect is produced by it upon the delicate coats of the stomaclr and intestines. What housewife would take home to her family a can of alum or ammonia baking" powder if she knew it. Such powders notr only undermine the system, but it ia pointed out that ammonia taken into the system in even infinetisimal doses day after day, im parts to the complexion a sallow and blotched appearance. It is safe to discard all baking powders sold with a prize or gift. What a misnomer are the words "Absa-"'., lutely Pure," as applied to bakiug powders two of thelargest selling brands, one made from alum, the other containing ammonia and both of these drugged baking powders-; ', have stamped upon their labels and cireulars these words absolutely pure, as a matter of fact they are ''Absolutely Po r," as shown by official examinations. , ' OREGON PACIFIC RAILROAD CO. An action has been commenced by leave of Judge Boise, by the district attorney of the Third Judicial District, Mr. Geo. G. Bingham, who resides at Salem, to cancel the charter of the Willamette Valley & Coast railroad company. Who may have inspired this novel method of putting an other screw on this company has not yet ap peared. The ostensible motive is alleged by the Salem Statesman to be to compel the ' receiver of the Oregon Pacific to pay the employes their back wages. How an at tempt to forfeit the charter of the Wil lamette Valley & Coast railroad company, which must inevitably injure the credit of the receiver's certificates, which he is under stringent orders from Judge Pipes to sell, can aid the receiver or even compel him to find the money to pay the men, is hard to comprehend. If the parties who are seek ing in every way to obstruct and prevent the re-organization of the Oregon Pacific,,., had devised and openly 'supported -this scheme, there might be an explanation of it. What the judge of the Second Judicial Dis trict may have to say to this invasion of his territory, remains to be seen . It looks to an outside observer as if a movement of this kind was calculated to delay, not to aid the payment of the men. A MYSTERY. How the human system ever recovers from the bad effects of the nauseous medicines of ten literally poured into it for the tupposir tive relief of dyspepsia, liver complaint, con--stipation, rheumatism aud other ailments, is a mystery. The mischief done , by bad medicines is scarcely less than that caused by disease. If they who are weak, billious, dyspeptic, constipated or rheumatic, would oftener be guided by the experience of inva lids who have thoroughly tested Hostetter's Stomash Bitters, they would in every in stance obtain the speediest aid derivable, from rational medication. This medicine is a searching and at the same, time a thorough-' ly safe remedy, derived from vegetable sources.'aud posseesing, in consequence of its bisis of pure spirits, properties as a medici nal stiinuhint not to be found iu the fiery lo cal bitters and stimulants often reported to by the debilitated, dyspeptic and languid..
