TllE UOIIVALLIS GAZETTE, FIJI DAY, jfcLY 8, 1892. TIIE GLORIOUS FOURTH. LEBRATION AT CORVALLIS Ctmj of Joy. Patriotism nnd Music The Carner Stone, It aces, Etc. The glorious fourth is a iliing of the past. ike small lxy ia will poulticing his numerous burns ami other injuries of aaunilar nature, and the heavy boom uf the auvils ami the sharp report of the fire-cracker coupled with the Mare of the brass band still seems to be heard. All day Saturday and Sunday people were busily engaged in decorat- . i -i i I. C .. .1 VZ Hie places Ul uusaica Hiuiijj owuuu n-eet and many of the exhibits made A the decorating line were quite unique Jind attractive. At sunrise the booming of anvils disturbed the dreams of our people who were thus reminded of the arrival of independence day, and soon the visit or from outside the city began to ar rive and by the middle of the forenoon he streets were crowded with people, anxious to catch a glimpse of the pro cession which formed at the city hall and moved promptly at 10 o'clock, led by the Marine baud of this city, In the first car were seated Misses I. Galatly, Julia Warrior, Dora Blum burg and Mary Fischer, representing the goddes of liberty, peace, plenty and the district of Columbia, respectively In the second division, following the philomath band, came fire department with apparatus profusely decorated with flags and bunting and with Miss Mary Smith as the divinity of the en gine company, Miss Ora Spangler for the hook and ladder company and Miss Bessie Barker for the hose com pany. The boat containing a number of boys representing the U. S. navy was also quite an attractive feature of the parade the people proceeded to I he court house square where the remain ing exercises of the morliing were car ried out. On entering the court house yard one of the first things to catch one's eye was a most enteresting and novel sight. It was the exhibit of the Corvallis ice works. Ou a stand near the northwest corner of the court hou-e was a large tank of ice water which was free for all to imbibe from. Ou each side of the tank was a piece of clear ice about 30 inches iu height iu the center of which a beautiful bou quet of flowers was frozen. It was taost unique and was the occasion of uilch admiring comment. An abundance of good music was supplied by the bands which, witli the reading of the declaration of indepen dence by E. L. Bryan were listened to with close attention by the audience. The oration by Hon. W. W. Thayer, was a brilliant effort, but great dissatis faction was expressed because the greater portion of the audience was unable to hear it. Through lack of space we are unable to give any of the oration, which contained a large amount of deeply interesting food for thought lor all, there being a great deal of historical information as well a) containing a most excellent treatise of thegovernment as it is today. The barbecue at 12 o'clock was one of the interesting features of the day iirtd was quite generally patronized. Nearly everybody had heard of bar becues, but not many knew anything about the manner in which they were conducted and as soon as it became known that the meat was ready to be aerved crowds began flocking to the tables and all were soon diniug ou the meat which was served in liberal allow ancea with bread and pickles. The work of cooking the meat was done bj Messrs. Wm. Hartless, J. C. Young and Willbanks, and the excellence of the repast was ample evidence that they thoroughly understood the busi ness.' The cooking occupied 15 hours. At tidQ p. m. the mayor and city (Couueil, preceeded the Marine and jPbilomath bands, marched to the new city 2ta.ll where the cornerstone of that building was laid with interesting and impressive .ceremonies. B. R. Job, (Chairman of the committee, deposited ;tbe little metallic box in' the cavity of he stone., and the covering stone was lowered into .place. The address by Mayor Burnett was a most interesting one and contained a large amount xf historical and other data, of interest tto ail the people of Corvallis. The races and other contests in the afternoon were very exciting and en joyable. The first was a half mile bicyclo race, five contestants; -jhe first prize was won by Chas. Hodson, second by Brady Burnett, although neither of the vic tors appeared to exert himself, very much. In the tug of war a team composed of employes of the carriage factory pulled against a volunteer team made up an the spot The latter proved to be -more titan a match for the fac tory Jboys who ware forced to yield the victory io their opponents. i Chas. Young won the foot race closely pressed by Clyde Beach, sec ond. Three teams entered for the hose race and all of them did well iu their runs and the winners gained the prize through their quickness iu getting water. The ladies and gentlemen riding contestants looked well on their spirited horses. The first ladies' prize was awarded to Mrs. Williamson and the second to Miss Lida McDaniels, while Dick Kiger took first gentle men's prize and M. B. Brown second. Thin ended, the afternoon exercises. Awp.jaj. a baud concert was given in th &i)or.ii square at which the m$j&flrs, re given a decided treat by'lTewatifladk' m attendance. Tu of 'Ao&. by the Marine band are desepsrwewi , mention. They were nkd musical smash-up, J-Sd a baritone solo, "ThelT&wit," by Chambers. They were delivered with a precision and beauty which was a surprise to the entire audience. The celebration closed with a ball at the opera house. While there was not quite as large a crowd iu atteudauce at this celebration as at some others which have taken place liere, there was never a better pleased collection ol people than those who were here Mondav. Cases of drunkeness were delightfully rare and the city marshal reports that only four arrests were made. Corvallis certainly never had a better celebration in her entire history, Special mention is deserved by D. A. Osburn's horse for the scientific manner in which he kicked a hole through the Marine band's snare drum and it was a narrow escape from serious injury for the drummer. Chas. Hout donated the steer which was barbecued. Its weight was 730 pounds, and it was an exceptionally tine animal. The two sheep were also procured from Mr. Hout. Meeting ok Stockholders. The annual meeting of the stockholders of the Corvallis Carriage and Wagon Co. was held last Tuesday in the parlors of the Fiist National bank and the follow ing officers were elected for the coming year: President, J. B. Lee; secretary, Z. II. Davis; treasuier, First National bank; superintendent, John Sticker; directors, M. S. Woodcock, W. A. Wells, P. Avery, Z. H. Davis, Wiu. Creese, M. A. Beach, F. M. Johnson, John Sticker, J. B. Lee; executive committee, Z. H. Davis, John Sicker, P. Avery. The business of the com pany has been good ever since it be gan operations and is constantly on the lncrea-ie. About 45 persons are now employed and it is expected that the force of employes will have to be increased considerably before winter, as the present working force of the factory is even now being taxed to fill the orders which are coming in, and the future prospects are bright and en couraging. Serious Runaway. On Monday evening, as Mrs. John Todd, accom panied by her two sons, Willie and Chester, and her daughter Edith and Miss Bertha Mercer, was returning to her home from the celebration at this city her team became frightened while on Skipton hill, about three miles from Philomath, and ran away. The entire party was thrown from the hack and everyone of them rendered insensible. None of them are able to give a clear description of the accident, as they were all more or less shaken up and bruised. Edith was apparently hurt worse than any of the ethers and it was at first thought that her spine was injured, but at last repot ts she had improved sufficiently to walk about the house and it is believed now that she will recover without any serious conse quences. The team ran about three fourths of a mile, making a complete wreck of the wagon, nothing being left of it except the pole and one wheel. Disbanded for the Su mmer. T he Marine band of this city at their meet ing Wednesday evening decided to sus pena uusiness until ran. Tins move was occasioned by the fact that the boys thought they could not afford to be at the expense to which they have been subjected for rent and other ex pensei in return for the very small patronage which they would receive during the summer. Then. two. thev need more members before they can give as good music as they would wish. Tl . -ft ii our citizens win co-operate in a proper manner this can be done and the enviable reputation which this band has earned will be tully sustained and even improved upon. Subjects of special interest will Jbe discussed at the Congregational church by the pastor on Sunday. Subject of evening sermon "Snadrach A Character Study." Short sermon and good singing. A cordial invitation to crerybody. COMMISSIONED HIGH SCHOOLS, President BIoss, of the state agricul tural college, in his report to the board of regents last month, took occasion to make some remarks relative to the con nection between the high schools of the state and the agricultural college and state university. He says: "The state- agricultural college and the state university are, when properly considered, only the continuation of the public school work of the state. The work of the university is to pro mote general education in the highest fields of learning; while this institution has its work partly in the same field, it has its special work iu those fields which come into immediate contact with the great industries of the state. But in either case the state presumes that its public school system includes the university, the state agricultural college, and its normal schools as parts of its system of education. This being true, it follows that this institution should at once, put itself into proper relations with the public school system of the state. The high schools and academies, and many of the best town or gram mar schools can do. or profess to do woik which would entitle the pupils upon their graduation to admission in to the first year work of this institution. There are now a large number of schools which can do this work. I would suggest that those public schools in this state that can properly fit pupils for the first year work,le commissioned by the board of regents, and designated by the board as commissioned schools. That the names of these schools be pub lished in the catalogue of this institu tion. I would further suggest that the president of this institution together with the state supt. of public instruc tion be authorized to examine the work of such schools as desire to be commis sioned, and report the results to this board. That a regular commission to prepare students be issued over the signature of the secretary or executive officers of this board, to superintendents or prin cipals and boards of directors,of several schools which are found worthy. That these commissions be renewed each year provided it be shown to the board that the standard of work is maihtainted. That those pupils who complete the the course m regularly commissioned schools be granted a certificate signed by the president of this institution en titling them to enter the first year of the state agricultural college without Qxammntion. That these certificates, so far as prac ticable, be granted at the same time, and be made a iart of the commence ment exercises of the several schools. It is to be understood that while the commission will enable the pupils to enter the school without examination that he will be entitled to enter higher classes upon examination. Those students who are admitted without examination and who, after due trial, are found to be unprepared will be transferred to lower grades or classes. ! Tho above, in my opinion, is one of the most important steps which this board can undertake for the permanent growth of this institution. In addi tion to this, it- strengthens the desire for educational advancement in every town and country school in the state. It will be regarded an honor to be en titled to enter this institution whether the pupil enters or does not enter it It will give us the names of those who ought to come to this institution so that they may be reached in person by circulars of information. In the end, I see in this that as the public schools of Oregon advance, an opportunity Ms given to advance tuo standard of this institution." The president further states that th is system has been adopted in Ohio, Indiana and Kansas, and the results have proven entirely successful in every way. In accordance with this recommen dation, the board of regents decided to adopt the suggestions, which we think cannot be too highly commended, as it bears on its face the stamp of intelli gent reasoning, and its results cannot be otherwise than satisfactory. Oregon Fruits. The state horticultural society is actively at work making arrange ments for the display of Oregon products to be made as the World's fair at Chicago next year. List January a committee was ap pointed to take charge of the matter, and it announces that it has just received a ship ment of nearly a carload of glass jars in which to pat up fruit for the exhibit. These are made especially for exhibit purposes. They are of all sizes, from one quart to seven gallons, and when filled with Oregon fruit will certainly make a very elegaut exhibit. The committee is now ready to re ceive fruits of all kinds with which to fill these jars. It is not only desired that the very best of all kindsthat are grown in the state shall thus be secured, but that all part of the state shall ba represented. The name of the grower, with address, together with the name of the fruit, will be placed upon each jar. i PUBLIC LIBRARY FOR CORVALLIS. Twenty-seven citizens of Corvallis describing themselves as "active file men of this city" have sent in a peti tion to the city council against setting aside a room in the new city hall, "for the use of the W. C. T. U., libran and free reading room." Fiom talking to several of the sign crs I find that they do not understand J the facts as I felt sure was the case. These gentlemen are not the men to be unable to appreciate the advantages to the city, as a whole, of having a pub lic library--nor : are they selfish enough to wish to deprive their fellow ; citizens, young and old, of the privilege of reading good books just because they, the signers of the petition do not care to read such books themselves. Now, this proposed library is to be a free gift to the city of Corvallis for ever and in the original written offer no sort of control, interference, or management, is proposed to bo re served to the ladies of the W. C. T. U., or anybody else except just this-j-that after the library is turned over to the city it is proposed that additions to the library in years to come . shall be superintended, or approved (if that U a plainer word) by a committee cf three one member named by the city council, ono by the VV. C. T. IT., and the third to be the professor of English literature in the agricultural college for the time being. Is that a fair suggestion, in these days of impure, infidel, and worthless books, to keep up the standard of the city library to the high standard it will start on 1 If it is not reasonable let any objector propose a better one. Now, the city council themselves found this objection in the offer made them that to keep the library open at reasonable times might cause some ex pense to the city, which the city char ter did not authorize. The council had three courses open to them either to refuse the offer outright or else, to fix the opening of the library at such times that no addi tional expense to the city would be involved -or, to tell the persons, who made the offer that they would give them a lease of the library room, so that whatever expense that was incured . ... , , , in keeping the room open would fall on tle persons offering the library and not on the city. The city council chose this last alter native, by resolutions. Now, the W. C. T. U , ladi s pro prose to act ou this, rather thau see the city deprived of the library. . T"-a. 'm. - . xut, u was nui meir .lucnuoii oi proposition; and they have not pro- posed, or suggested, to' deviate in any one point from their first proposition which is, to put the city of Corvallis in:o the free, uncontrolled, and abso lute ownership of the books to be bought from ihe proceeds of the sale of the present library iu a reasonable way and in good faith and that by some means or other further additions to the library shall be of good, clean, standard books. These statements are made as the result of a careful inquiry into the facts. If th?y are true, and if no in terference with the management ot the library in the future, is to be feared or hoped fur, as the case may be, then surely the grounds of the "active firemen's" opposition disappear and the council should do all in their power to aid the purpose of supplying the city of Corvallis, not with a "W. C. T. U., free library and reading room," as the firemen's petition calls it, but with a "City of Corvallis Free Library," to be. handed down bv one city council to another as one of the city's most valu able and useful possessions.

The late report of the Minnesota State Food aud Dairy commission contains the re- j suit of a series ol experiments made by Prof. C. W. Drew, chemist, to determine the strength and keeping qualities of the vari ous baking powders. The report attaches great importance to these -experiments. Baking powders that vary in strength, or that readily lose strength before use, are unreliable aud will not. give even results ; besidesj it is an indication of the use of improper ingredients it their compounding. - The. tests showed the strength of leaveuing power of the Royal very much greater than that of the others. The uniformity of strength of all the samples of Royal tested, no ro itter what nheir age, was remarkable. . Its leavening power was practically nnimpared even in the oldest specimens. The difference in the amount of leavening gas in .different samples of the other brands .was so great as to seriously tmpare their usefulness in baking. As much as 24 per cent, loss was found in samples a few months old. All the samples of Royal examined by state chemist Drew were re ported of satisfactory strength and quality. Dr. Drew states that the "Royal" being of greater strength than any other, and posessing better keeping qualities, it is the natural conclusion that it is the best baly powder made.

This morning, about 9:S0, Mr?. Alice Schmidt, living about two miles north of towii attempted to take her owu life by shooting Herself in the abdomen with a 32 calibre revolver. Mrs. Schmidt is about 19 years of age. Her maiden name was Oden and she was reared by George Smith who resides near this city. She was married nearly two I iin.rQ ... TVn.l fiytlmiwlf ot,,l 4liot of. J ' . I unne moved nnfcn a. small ranch belonmiicr to Mrs. Schmidt, where they have since lived. Since her marriage, she has been subject to tits of despondency and has several times threatened to take her life and had even made two or three unsuccessful attempts to do so. On this occasion she first tried to sever the arteries iu her wrists with a butcher knife. Failing in this, she took a revolver and placing the muzzle at her stotnnch fired, the ball entering about 1J inches above the navel. There was no one present in the house at the time she did the rash deed. Her husband had left the house and was on his way to the woods to cut some timber when he heard the shot and his wife scream and rushing back, reached the house to time to catch her just as she came out through the door. Several of the neighbors arrived upon the scene at about the same time and medical aid was secured as soon as possible. When asked why she had done it she replied that she was tired of life and did not care to live any longer. Her condition as we go to press is very critical; she may recover but there are manv chances against her. Then, too, she was soon to become a mother, which makes her condition all the more serious, as there is a strong probability that the bullet which came so near being fatal to her own life put an end to the life of her unborn child, as the course taken by the ball would be just about right for such an effect. Preparations fob Vacation. The pro fessors of the agricultural college are makiug preparations for spending their vacation in various ways. Some of them are making preparations to go to the mountains or the seashore, while some others will visit various portions of the state in the interests of the college. Profs. F. L. Washburn and II. T. French have left for . an extended visit on the feiletz Indian reservation. . Pleasant Party. Mi38 Clara Fisher en tertained a large number of her friends at her home in this citv Thursday evening. After several other minor amusements, progressive whist was introduced and held the party until a late hour. A delicious lunch was served, after which music and dancing were indulged in until the "wee sma" hours when the guests departed with hearty expres sions of pleasure and gratification at the man ner in which the fair hostess had entertained i them Letter List.
