The music of the saw
is heard ou every side
and we feel safe in asserting that there
are more new buildings iu contem
plation and in course of construction
in Corvallis than in any other town in
the valley. In whatever direction one
may look he will see new buildings iD
different 'Stage's of construction and,
although there is no boom, our gtowth
and improvements are so rapid as to
almost merit the title of phenomenal.
Tnere are at least twenty residences
now in course of erection and as many
more are being contemplated, all of
them being of a kind aud style which
will make a creditable showing for our
city. Bsides these, the business pur
tion of the city is undergoing a re
novation and remodeling which wiii
make a surprising improvement in the:
appearance of the city. The work on
the new city hall is being pushed as
rapidly as is possible; it will cost a
large sum to complete aud will be the
best in the valley outside of Portland.
The new hotel is now progressing
nicely, the stone foundation is com
pleted aud the building is beginning to
assume a definite form ; its cost will
amount to between $15,000 and $20,
000. Fish & Murphy have fixed up
and renovated the Beason building
and moved their stock of stoves and
tiuware into it, while the room vacated
by them will be immediately occupied
by Peter Zeirolf, who will begin iear
ing down his present quarters next
week to make room for a fine two
story brick. This building will have
a frontage of 37 feet and a depth of
80 feet. The upper floor will be di
vided up for offices, and the lower
floor will contain two store rooms, 20
and 14 feet front, respectively, and a
hall; cost about $3,000. Jas. Haves'
new residence is now almost completed;
M. V. Avery s house is well along,
the contract for painting having been
iet to W. E. Paul ; R. E. Gibson is
having put up what will be one of the
handsomest residences in the city
when it is completed, and new resi
dences are springing up in all parts of
the city. Yes, if anybody asks you
about it, you can truthfully say that
Corvallis is improving, and that at no
slow rate. And this is not all. Con
siderable attention is being given to
our streets, and the prospects are good
for some of them being graded and
otherwise fixed up to correspond with
our position as a city. We grow.
Injured by Explosion. Judge D.
Carlile, while at work on his place
near the Odd Fellows cemetery yester
day, met with an accident which nar
rowly missed being fatal. He was en
gaged, in blasting stumps with giant
powder and had placed a charge in an
old log which for some reason failed to
explode at the proper time. He ap
proached the log for the purpose of
making an examination and had placed
his left baud over the charge, which ex
ploded just at that instant, tearing the
flesh from the hand in a frightful man
tier and also cutting his lip and burn
ing his face severely. No bones were
broken in the hand and, although the
injuries are quite severe and painful,
we think it is a matter for congratula
tion that they are not worse.
Fine Fruit. Wm. Hull, of Beaver
creek, brought into R. Graut's grocery
one day this week some specimens in
the way of small fruits which surpass
anything of the kind ever exhibited
here before. I hose he brought were
tli9 Champion gooseberry, Fay's
Prolific currant and White Grape cur
rant, lhe bunches were each afcout
two feet long and the fruit was clustered
so thickly as to almost entirely con
ceal the foliage, it showing in only a
few places. Mr. Hull said that from
one busn nve year3 old ne gathered
seven gallons of berries. Mr. Hull's
place is about 10 miles southwest of
this city. Can anybody beat this rec
ord? We dou't believe they can.
CITY COUNCIL.
The city council held its regular
meeting last Monday evening, the
mayor and six councilmen being pres
ent.
The street committee, which was to
report on the petition for graded streets,
asked for further time to prepare their
report ; request granted.
On motion, it was decided to de
signate I'glin s barnyard as the city
pound, the former site of that institu
tion being now occupied by the new
city hall.

Tue Woolen Mill. In our last weeks'
issue we mentioned the fact that an eastern
party would locate a woolen mill in this city
provided a subsidy of 5,500 could be raised
by our citizens. During this week Mr. Wm.
15. Humbert, the party in question, was in
the city inte: viewing some of our business
men concerning the project. He is now in
Tacoma. hnving gone there to see his family,
It is to be hoped that the plan will mot t
with the proper encouragenent, as it is not
at all likely that a more liberal proposition
will ever bo made, and the advantages of
having the mnl are apparent to all.

Certain parties having taken it upon them
selves to claim to be agent for the same line,
I hereby warn all to beware of such claims.
I can supply any machine made in America
or England and am the onlv person in Cor

DIED.
JOHNSON. In this city, June 25th, 1892,
Mrs. J. D. Johnson, aged 42 years, 10
months and 28 days.
She had been in failing health for some
months, and had tried change of climate,
as well as all the remedies known to our
physicians. She grew gradually worse, and
last Saturday, at 12:30, passed quietly
away in th arms of her faithful husband,
Mrs Johnson was one of our most loved,
and best known citizens. She was born in
Ohio, Jul 27, 1849. She crossed the
plains, in 1861, with her parents, and set
tled in Corvallis in 1865. She was a devout
and consistent member of the Episcopal
church, having been confirmed by Bishop
Lee, of Iowa. In the year 1871 she was
married, and has lived in Corvallis during
her whole married life. Her three sons, as
well as her husbaud, are left to mourn
their loss. Tho beautiful service of the
Episcopal church was used at her funeral
which was held in church nf the Good Sa
maritan, by Itev. George F. Plummer, tha
rector. The interement was at Crystal
Lake cemetery. A large number of sorrow
ing friends followed her to the grave, and
stood in mournful silence around her last
resting place while the service was read and
the casket covered with earth and flowers.
A loving, pure spirit has gone to her hea
venly reward. Kone knew her but to love
her; none named her but to praise. She
was a devoted wife, a kind, thoughtful
mother, a constaut friend and humble chris
tian. To her aged fathur and mother, as
wen as to ner more immediate tamiiy, we
tender, our heartfelt sympathy.
SMITH. At her home in this city, June 26,
