The Gazette will appreciate cor respondence of ' news items from neighboring localities. Newsv corres pondence is jphafc we want - S. T. Jeffrys having resigned as dep uty district attorney for Benton county. W. E. Yates has been appointed to the place. A worthy appointment. R. M. Wade & Uo. are having a very visible sign painted to ornament one whole side of their building. It is as big as it can be under the circum stances. A. F. Hershner's large and constant ly increasing trade is proof that he sells the best goods at the lowest prices and delivers them in a satisfac tory manner. Energetic ladies and gentlemen de siring to make from $3 to $10 per day in do so by engaging with the well known firm of L P. Miller & Co., Stockton, Calif. Misses Ollie Thompson and Louise Weber went to Albany today to take part in the exercises of a grand mu mcale given in that city this evening By Prof. Lorillard. Bad" cofds are bad, but they can be worse. Everybody has one, and the constant changes in the weather will not help them. One case of la grippe is reported in the city. Anyone wanting a monument before next Decoration day would do well to see. E. W. Achison & Co. at once as they are selling at a ten per cent, dis count to all who purcnase witinn sixty days. Mrs. Emma Smith is lying seriously ill at her home in this city, and her friends express doubts as to her recov ery; ' Her husband lives at Astoria He was formerly in the jewelry busi- atfss in this place Mr. John W. Simpson has moved from the bay over to Albany, where he, with his family, will reside during the winter. ' He intended to come to this city, but was nnable to find a house to move into. ' . . . Eugene City has a special policeman by the name of . James -G. Blaine. There is no newspaper discussion yet regarding the probable tateofhis health. He may not be up for a sec ond term, however. The carpenters commenced work on the roof of the carriage factory Thurs day. The line shafting has been put in place. When the roof is finished, the work on the factory can be pushed forward rapidly, rain or shine. H. T. Brodenck. recently from the Sandwich Islands, is in the city. He is looking over - this country, pointing out its merits and demerits, and talks some of locating .here. He is well pleased with this section of the valley. The saw mill continues work, but it has a hard time in supplying the present demand for lumber. The building movement is progressing un molested, and many new residences are on the programme for the winter months. If you want a beautiful granite mon ument set up brfore next Decoration day order at once before the quarries close for the winter. Drop a postal card to E. W. Achison & Co., at Al bany, Or., and they will call on you and show you samples and lowest prices. It is being whispered that a wedding, in which two of our most prominent society folks are interested, will take place in this city in the near future. The marriage circle is being well filled in Corvallis lately, but there is , still room for more. - The wheat market is firm at 88 cents per bushel, with a good tendency for a raise. Farmers will do well to embrace the present opportunity. Hops are looking up, but potatoes are a total failure. Good times are in sight for everybody. - We are requested to say that those college boys who spend some of their time about the saloons had better make themselves scarce or they will be informed on. They know the rules of the faculty in regard to this matter, and it would be to their benefit to act accordingly. Mr. L. Walker and daughter, re cently from Washington, have located in this city, and have leased Allen & Farra's corner store building on the corner of Second and Adams streets, where they will engage in the furniture business! We bespeak for them the good will of our people. Read their notice elsewhere in this paper. J. R. N. Bell, a Salt Creek newspa per man is at the Holton. Oregonian. Wonder if the Oregonian means the mythical home of the defunct politi cian! Watchman. No. It means one of the liveliest newspaper rustlers in Oregon. Bro. Bell knows how to make money out of a newspaper, and he does it in a 'way tha would be a credit to any country journal. The man who talks against his town is no better than the man who would go into- a-strange place and talk ma liciously about his' family. Logically, the comparison is the same, and when ever you say a good word about Cor vallis, you are saying a good word about yourself. We are glad to say that our town has few such people. We don't need them. Our people are an industrious class. Isaacs & Stearns this week brought to the Willamette Valley & State Land & Loan company's office, the finest ex hibit of cranberries we have seen for many a day. ' These berries were cul tivated on their place at WalJport, on swampy ground, and they are round and plump and large and tempting. The quality demonstrates that Oregon only holds just claims on the fruit raising problem. Next t While it does not seem in accord ance with the principles of liberty and freedom for a neighbor to forbid his friends hunting out in the open fields, yet when his family and stock are jeopardized, the action is no more than just It causes a feeling of un easiness when bullets go whizzing by the threshold or penetrate the wall of one's dwelling. Personal safety is- of more consequence in that case than hunter's enjoyment, and the law is the only civil resort Services at the Presbyterian church next Sabbath morning and evening at the usual hours. . Preaching by th pastor, Dr. Thompson. The morning subject will be for the time, "Thanks giving Forethought." In the evening the fifth sermon on "Life and What Ii Means." Service of Praise at 7:15 p. m. Christian Endeavor at 6:15 p. m. Sabbath school at 10 a. m. Strangen in the city will find a kindly welcome at this church and everyone is cordial Jy invited to attend these services. - "Old Age and Beauty. There are several divorce cases in the circuit court' fliis term, and among them is one in which a handsome wife of eigh teen and an aged husband pi seventy winters figure, conspicuously.' : . The case, of course, is well known to bur citizens. Wedlock has not been sue cessful in this instance, and so "the bonds that have made them one for a few brief months will shortly be se vered, and "Smith got his goods from Brown," will put the world of gossip into activity for awhile again. This case demonstrates the fact fully that age and beauty cannot mingle in har mony.. The one will not please the other any more than a snow storm will harmonize with roses or a Fourth of July oration. You cannot Foster beauty with age when beauty will not be Fostered, and therefore the circuit court is going to dissolve the partner ship, and the two will doubtless be wiser, although they will probably not enjoy themselves any better than be fore. It seems to be true at the pres ent day that people will marry most anybody and leave everybody else to shift about from place to place without any visible means of support or any inalienable rights. The question now that naturally forces itself to the front is, "Is marriage a failure?" Berlin in Zurich. E. Berlin writes to a friend in this city from Zu rich, Switzerland, under date of Oct 30th, as follows : "Last Sunday' I ar rived here all well and happy. I went twice to the postoffice, but received nothing. The postmaster said he did not know me, and sen ' it right back again. The most pleasure. I have is to find some American to talk with." It is evident from the tone of his letter, that Mr. Berlin" has been engrafted into American ways, and is thoroughly Americanized. He says he was right royally received in his old home, but leaves the impression that he don't like the "natives" of the old country, and would feel more at home in this country. We wish Mr. Berlin a pleasant sojourn at the old place of long ago. Girl's Essay on Boys. A little girl in a neighboring school essays on boys like this: "Man was made be fore woman. When God looked at Adam, he said to himself, well, I think I can do better if 1 try again, and then he made Eve. God liked Eve so much better than Adam that there have been more women than men. Boys are a trouble. They wear out everything but soap. If I had my way, half the boys in the world would be girls, and the rest would be dolls. My paa is ro nice that I think he must have been a little girl when he was a little boy." Chicago's Record Beaten. In 20 years 812 divorces were granted 4in Multnomah county, said ta be a re cord which places Portland ahead of Chicago. Take the country over, from 186(5 to 1886, the divorces - granted were 328,716, an increase of 157 per cent', in that twenty years. while an in crease of only 60 per cent in- popula tion is passed to our credit fn the same length of time. So that thC increase will be Been ' to be general' Lion county has been doing heir share. . J Christmas Goods in great variety," consisting of vases, perfume sets, fancy cups' and saucers, fancy fruit plates, shaving" mugs, toilet1 cases, -albums, work boxes, glove and handkerchief boxes, and numerous fancy and useful articles suitable 'for the coming holi days, will be on exhibition Saturday, Nov. 21st and until every piece is sold at Kline's, the regulator of low prices. Can't Cook as How many a young wife's heart has been saddened by hearing the above remark ! And yet how often the words are true; especially when cake, pastry or biscuit are in question! The reason is plain, yet it is "like telling a secret." Our mothers used and are using Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder. They cannot be misled into using any of the ammonia or alum powders. No dyspepsia no sallow complexions, when mother did the cooking. The first symptoms of ammonia poisoning, says a New York -paper, which appear among those who work in ammonia factories, is a discoloration of the nose and fore head. This gradually extends over the f ace until the com plexion has a stained, blotched and unsightly, appearance Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder is the only pure, cream of tartar powder that contains the whites of eggs. Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder is re ported by all authorities as free from Ammonia, Alum, or any other adulterant; ' In fact the purity of this ideal powder has never been ques : tioned. '." , v Specimens That Speak. The Ore gon State Agricultural college is en gaged at present in experimenting npon specimens of sugar beets sent in from various parts of the state where they have been cultivated. Of these sixty specimens have been tested, with highly satisfactory results, all averaging from 12 to 24 per cent sorghum. It will be remembered that 12 percent is the basis on which . these beets are raised with profit in California, and anything below thai figure, is. regarded as un profitable. When sugar beets can be raised in Oregon on the 24 per cent basis, it begins to look as if there is a flattering prospect for that industry in this state,, and we do not doubt the capabilities of our soil in the successful cultivation of the sugar beet. The result of these experiments at the col lege will be made public in a bulletin soon to be published, and this will give the outside world an idea of the possibilities of our soil and the proba ble success in the cultivation of sugar beets in almost any locality within the borders of our fair state. We feet as though we could put Oregon against the world. Married At the residence of Chief of Police Scrafford, in this city, Thursday, Nov. 19th, 1891, Mr. B. B. Barnes, of Ohio, to Miss C. E. A. Ladow, of Michigan, Rev. Hiram Gould officiating. The happy couple will make tlieir future home at Wells dale, this county.
