Agents will withdraw from sale after September 30th, iron clad excursion tickets to Yaquina and re turn. C. C. Hogue, G. P. A. The undertakers of the Northwest are in session in Portland, and will hold forth until September 30th. These are grave men, and they have grave duties to perform, and they call this convention for the purpose of dis cussing matters of interest to the cause and electing othcers for the ensuing year. J. A Knight, of this city is in attendance. The man who deserted his better half and then fled to Albany with the children where he expected to further his escape, was probably something more than disappointed when, upon his arrival, he was met and taken into custody by the proper authorities, and conveyed back to his old haunts. It won't do for a man nowadays to tan per with the law. Mr." A. Sherill who has been visiting here the greater part of the summer for the benefit of his wife s health, return ed to bis home at Canyonville, Tues day, on a temporary trip of business, leaving Mi's. Sherill here till his return in the course of another month. They intend to spend the winter in Corvalhs, Mrs. Sherill has been greatly benefited by the change of climate. Mrs. Gerard, whose husband died recently in this city, was making pre parations to return, in company with Ser daughter to ber Michigan borne, and- had almost completed arrange ments for the journey, when she was happily surprised by the announce meat in a letter from home, that her son. with his family would soon be on his way to- join her at Corvallis, and intend' to. make Oregon their future heme.' - A' TfeAi Gathering. A pleasant tea rrartv was sriven at the residence of Mis. W. A. Wells, weanesaay aiter ternoon under the auspices of the Ladies' Aid Society of the Presby ter- . ian church. This party was given, in honor of Mrs. Ralston Cox. as a tar- and a full attendance of the members was present to do.homagi to this estimable lady. A social good . r . j H -1 time was naa. .xesceraav ivir. auu Mrs! Cox took the morning train for their new. home at Vancouver amid the f enerall troocL wishes of their host o w of friends..

UUJUiViM V ,. .. mm I.HI 'v" via w The opening term of th State Agricul tural College was attended by a large list of new students, who represented the various sections of this state. It was the good pleasure of a Gazette representative to be present Monday, ami when chapel exercises were called, the spacious room was tilled nearly to its utmost capacity, with bright- lookiujvoung people, who apparently rea- zed the importance of the year before them. In the oxaminations of last Friday only a small number of the new ones received first year privilege. This, will be unfortunate for Prof. Bristow, of the preparatory ' de partment, whose management of a large number of students will doubtless prove very burdensome before the conclusion of the last term. The number present will probably aggregate 159 students, with flattering prospects- for considerable in crease in the near future. The present course of improvements at the ejllege will prove commodious this year. The new dormitory, in the way of room ac commodations, will come to the rescue in a short time. The electric light plant is a beneficent movement, so far as economical lights are concerned. They will be per mitted to shine till the sleepy hour of 10 'clock, and the student, who may not be prepared for the emergency, will be left in the dark. Prof. John D. Letcher was busy Monday . . . . . i t receiving measurements or stuaenis ior military suits. Considerable cash will be xpended in securing these ornamental cos tumes, but the boys who get them will find tbern to be a valuable necessity for the wear and tear incident to school -day chivalries. Miss 'Snell will have to deal with a larger class of ladies this year than formerly, if wo are to judge from present indications. Many are disposed to regard cooking as an n profitable and useless course at college, but the days are drawing near when good cooks will he in as much demand for the common comfort as any other department in life. Everybody likes good, wholesome, meals, and in order to become a goad meal maker one must learn how to make them. The experiment station now under course ot erection will greatly aau to ids improvements around the college. It will be neat, commodious and attractive. The college is well equipped with a print ing office, in which all the work for the col lege is done. The printer students will have a show te practice their skill at the case. The college will regrot Ed. E. Wilson's absence this wintei, aud they will feel that they have sustained a great loss in being de prived of his good-humored-characteristics. He will soon take his departure for Portland where he will pursue the study of law un der the dictates of the State University, There will be plenty of work to do this year for the students, while the profession al department will be heavily encumbered. PUBLIC SCHOOL NOTES. The Siletz Reservation. The Siletz reservation, containing in the neighborhood of 225,000 acres of land, is being properly allotted, and each Indian on the reservation will be deeded 80 acres of land for his own individual use. There are 560 Indians en rolled on the register at the reservation, so it wou't take much of this valuable land to supply them in the allotments. As this is mostly situ ited in Beuton county, it will prove to be an attractive atjenc in inducing home-seekers aud immigrants generally to locate among us. This is said to consist ol some of the be3t soil in Western Oregon, d 180,000 acres will make up a large tract of land for the use of settlers. Th Indians are visibly decreasing year after year, and at some future day this excellent land will be largely occupied by white people. Factory Accident. Joseph Emerick re ceived painful injuries Tuesday while at work on the wagon and carriage factory building. A falling piece of heavy timber which was being hoisted, by some mishap got loose, and came down with all its weight upon Joseph, crushing him to the gronud. He suffered intense pain and was uncon scious for quite awhile, and it was feared f jr a time that he could not survive the effects of the shock, but investigation re vealed the fact that Joseph had no bones broken nor received any internal injuries-. The next day he was able to be up aud limp about the house, but he experienced yory unpleasant sensational soreness throughout hie entire anatomy in conse quence of the accident. Joseph will recover.

There was an enrollment ol 350 pupils the first day, and the recitation rooms were extremely crowded. Prof. Blanchard realizes a need of more teachers in conducting the work the coming year. The kindergarten and primary classes are in their usual good hands, and they can look forward to a very successful season.

Evans, Mrs. H. M. Barnard, Misses Jennie Lilly and Diana Newton. It is whispered that at the close of the first term of the schools there will be give one of the most unique entertainments ever held in Corvallis. The kindergarten and prim ary classes will be made one of the features of the occasion. The date of this event will be about the I9th of December next. An nouncements, however, will be properly made from time to time, as circumstances may demand. The proceeds of this enter. tainment will be tfsed in paying for a num ber of small improvements in the school, and to purchase books, organ, etc., as far as the money will go. Of course, the public will liberally patronize and encourage their efforts in a cause so worthy.

Mens' and Boys Fine Hand Made Shoes, Are manufactured in Corvallis, Oregon, ot a Superior Quality, sold as cheap as Eastern shoes made by machine. and The hop yield of Oregon this year will be about 10,000 bales short in consequence of the ravages of the hop louse. There is not much prospect for a better price just now. The Secret of Fine Pastry. Is wholly in using Dr. Price's "Cream Baking Powder. The only pure Cream Tarter Powder sold on the market. Other brands contain either ammonia, alum or some other adulterant. Ammonia or alum powders dry out, make the dough too porous, leaving a bitter taste, etc. No agency has assisted so much toward perfection in cookery as Price's Cream Baking Powder. Its ingredients are simple and so blended as to exist in exact chemical pro portions, so after use there is never any excess of either left in the food. Hence there can be no impurities whatever left in the finished food. No bitter taste, no taint of ammonia, but food raised with Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder partakes of the natural sweet flavor of the flour and keeps moist and fresh for days. This powder possesses qualities peculiar to it alone. No other makes such delicious pastry. No other contains the white of eggs. ' '.FALL SEASON 1891. -DISPLAY OF- Pattern Hats and Bonnets.
