Dr.- Thompson delivered a lecture before the students at Philomath on Wednesday evening. The large Melh odist -church at that place was filled with a most attentive and appreciative audience to hear the address. 5aneriu Mackay was a passenger on Monday s tram for Yaquina. Mr. Mackay has a valuable fruit ranch near Toledo, and intends having consider able improving done on it in the jry of pruning, grafting, etc. Preparations are being made for a pfenjc to take place at Harrisburg the fatter part of this month, and also one at Wells Sta. the first week in May, As usual, we will no doubt have web- foot weather on these particular dates. toe i8k jnoiiee singers, who are billed to give one of their concerts in this city April 4th, have performed Here jbetore ana nave established an unviable reputation for their entertain intents.

E. C. Pentland, secretary of the State Press Association has moved his fani ily to Frankfort, Wash., where he pro poses to publish a paper for a town yet to come, to be located opposite Astoria.

Mr. Florence Williams delivered a Shakespearean- lecture Monday eve ning at the chapel of the agricultural .college under the auspices of that insti tution. She is a good speaker and her reputation as a Shakespearean scholar is well deserved. In 1878 the Corvallis brass band was composed of the following mem ;bera with E. A.

Monday evening, April 4, the origi nnl Fisk jubilee singers will give one of their concerts nt the opera house in tins city. JLhis is the company that devoted over $150,000 of its earnings to the building of Fisk university, Nashville, Tenn. Reserved seats may be had at T.

On Wednesday last, the carrage fac tory received a carload ot steel, for tires, etc., from the east, and a large lot of wheels are expected to arrive in a few days. The catalogues for 1892 are expected to be ready to send out soon, after which George Eglin, travel, ing representative for the factoiy will start on the road. The Vincent house and grounds were sold this week to Sheriff Mackay, the consideration named in the deed oeing ipz.ouu. yJuv siientt tor some reason, probably known to himself, seems to be taking a wonderfully deep interests in hotels and restaurants re cently. We presume a good, fat office, supported by the democratic party, can stand it, though. A great many inquiries have been made as to why work was not being pushed on the city hall. The cause is the lack of material. The rock whicl is to be used is procured from near Monroe. Tlie roads have been so bad mat it nas Deen impossible to do any hauling and probably no hauling can be done for some weeks yet. The con tractors, however, are making efforts to get the stone brought down by boat, in which event work will be prosecuted as rapidly as possible. W. W. Williams, representing the Independence steam laundry, was in Coivallis several davs the first of the week. It is the intention of the man agers of the laundry to secure consider able trade in Corvallis, and other towns along the 'ine. If a steam laundrv at Independence can pay express charges both wavs and still realize a profit, whv would not such an enterprise sue ceed in Corvallis, which has, if any difference, a better opening than Inde pendence 1 Dorval Irvin, employed in Weber's furniture store, was unfortunate enough to crush one of his thumbs quite badly on Tuesday. He was about to close the heavy door of the sale, but failed to make proper allow ance for the momentum of the ponder ous door, which swings quite easily on its lunges, and allowed his hand to come between the door and the side of the safe with the result stated above. The injury is exceedingly painful, but will probably uot be serious. We've had all kinds of weather re cently and anybody must certainly be very exacting and unreasonable who couldn't find weather to please them. The sun smiles for a while as jovially as possible, then a little later we are greeted with a heavy fall of rain. Tues day morning the hills west of town were covered with snow, so that one could leave the valley in the midst of bright flowers and within five miles find himself in deep snow. At Ya quina bay a little more variety was ad ded by a tiff of hail. Oh, yes, we can give you easterners any kind of weather you feel like asking for. No Arrests Made. The U. S. marshal was in the city last Saturday for the purpose of interviewing Super intendent Sticker, of the carriage fac tory. It happens that Mr. Sticker waw formerly superintendent of the Brant ford carriage factoiy, in Canada, and after he had taken charge of the works in this city, two of his old fellow employes followed him here and are now employed in the Corvallis factory. According to the law of the United States it is a criminal offense to import foreign labor by contract. Some ma licious individual in the east filed a complaint in the United States court, charging Mr. Sticker with importing labor for the factory, and this was the cause of the marshal's visit On in vestigation, however, the charge was found to be wholly without foundation, the men having come here of their own free will and without having made an agreement with anybody. The law was not violated in any particular, and the m irshal returned to Portland with out any prisoners. . The rumor was on our streets that Mr. Sticker and the other men had been arrested, but in reality, no arrests were made and the matter has been allowed to drop. 1 Coming this Way. The Hub bard Herald says: "A gypsy outfit was camped here last week. They were horse traders and fortune tellers. We have often heard of queer people, out these beat them all with their cun niDg ways. They succeeded in mak ing several trades here, and left here Monday morning. They are traveling south and will probably stop at every town they come to, and try to swindle the people if they can." Another tumble in wheat has taken place. For some time past the price nas ranged trom eU to 86 cents, but it is now down to 75 cents and in re ality the market does not justify more than 73 cents. - The cause of this is said to be the excellent crops which are expected in all sections the coming year. Probably another reason is that a large number of farmers who bel4 their wheat are now unloading. A Geological Museum G. M. Powers, formerally a citizen of Corval lis, but now residing at Newport, passed through this city Wednesday en route for Colorado, Wyoming, Mon tana, Yellowstone national park4 eto., expecting to be absent for six or seven weeks. Guy is an enthusiastic student of geology and for a number of years has been collecting specimens from all possible sources and at present he has collection . valued at about $IDUU, He says that he finds the Yaquina bay region especially rich in material for this purpose, and he has decided to locate permanently in Newport and make a business of collecting speci mens to supply the market. S. G. Irvine has erected a building in which Guy will establish a geological museum and laboratory. His eastern trip is for the double purpose of procuring the necessary machinery for the labora tory and to make additions to the museum from the regions which he will visit. The museum will be la catod on Nye creek, near Mr. Irvin's residence, and as it will be open and free for all it will, no doubt, prove a drawing card for our seaside resort. There will be on exhibition Indian relics, fossils, minerals, sea shells, natural history specimens and land and marine curiosities of all kinds found at Yaquina bay. It will be of special interest to teachers and stud ents. THE OREGON PACIFIC. Portland, March 28. In the United States circuit court yesterday the case of Lindley Smith et al vs T. Egenton Hogg, et al came up for hear ing on a motion for leave to introduce additional atSdavits. The action was brought by Smith et al to procure an order to restrain Sheriff Mackay, of Benton county, from delivering the certificate of sale of the Oregon Pacific railroad, and to prevent any assign ment of such certificate if it had been delivered. At the time the papers in the suit were filed plaintiffs did not have all the afhdavits they desired to present, so yesterday they asked leave to introduce others. After hearing the argument in the case the court ordered that leave be granted, so as to allow Sheriff Mackay to deliver the certifi cates ot sale, but at the same time re straining Z. Job, Egenton Hogg or any one else from receiving it, so this ac tion will not in any way affect the pros pects of the plaintiffs, as the certificates cannot be assigned or disposed ot. The case was to have come up for hearing on Wednesday but was post poned, and will probblv come up for a hearing on its merits early in May. THE CITY COUNCIL. The city council at its regular m?et- ing Monday evening, besides allowing the usual number of bills, transacted the following business : A committee of three was appointed to confer with Joseph G. Kelley, sani tary engineer of Eugene and ascertain his terms for drafting plans for a sewer, together with specifications lor same, also for surveying the cross sections for our main streets. - The mayor vetoed the new ortli- nance reiatinz to annnais ana iowis . - , i r , running at large. H. Pape. ir., was awarded the con tract for 'nrintinz the city charter and ordinances, at $1.04 per page. Weighing the Mails. Each days mail on the Oregon Pacific trains to the front, is now weighed, it is said for the purpose of f.scertaining the average amount sent out. The average for a certain period will probably be taken to decide whether or not the route re quires a mail clerk on the train. Al bany Herald. The Grants Pass Courier says: "Mark ley, the abstract man, passed throujjh on his way to Jacksonville Tuesday. He says that county's assessment roll is in a worse fix than ours was, and intimated that a little piece of script for 10,000 or so would be forthcoming for his work in Jackson countv. He is also enzaced on Multno mah's deeds and mortgages. PRODUCE PRICE CURRENT. Corrected every Thursday.

In Bulletin-r-Stipplement No. 6, page 33, places Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder HIGHEST OF ALL LEAVENING STRENGTH. Prof. R. C Kedzie, of the Michigan State Agricultural College, who personally superintended the examination, says: "With the exception of Dr. Price's Crjsam Baking Powder, which is a cleanly, pure, whole some compound, conforming with natures own formulas of human diet, we found every sample more or less tainted."

Another of the largest colleges recognizes women and admits them to equal rights with men. This time it is Yale. Let us send up our heartfelt thanks. The government of Australia has agreed to appoint a commission of women to fur ther the display of women's work at the Columbian exposition. The closing of the exposition grounds on Sunday is creating; quite a controversy. The subject is discussed both pro and con in some of the eastern papers. - It is quite alarming in some of its phases, and seems top bad to have our reputation as a natiou go abroad as careless in this respect when our Jfuritan ancestors were so rigid in their Sunday observance. Uncle Sam and Columbia, our national father and mother, must be ashamed of their children, for they will have intoxicating liquors on the exposition grounds. Never theless, some of Uncle. Sam's best behaved children arc not in favor of it and are fight ing it with heart and soul. Labor Commissioner Robinson, of Michi gan, presents the following facts in his an nual report: Average wages tor women in in the state, 79 cents per day. The lowest was $1 per week, while the highest was 18 75 per week. Only a very few receive these amounts. Of the 13,436 canvassed, 181 were under twelve years of age, while 8.676 were between thirteen and eigliteei.; 10.541 were single, 444 were married and 480 were widows. Five began work at eight years of age and one at fifty-eight. Lady Henry Somerset will speak in Bos ton, Mass., and Portland, Me., before leav ing for her home in England. E. M. S.
