Col. W. II. H. Waters died at his

years. He came to Oregon .in 1357
and afterwards returned to the cast,
where he practiced law till 1874, when
he again came to this state and settled
in Salem where he rem-tined until his
death. He was editor of the States
man for nearly two years and was well- j
known all over the state.
H. E. Hilary, of Turner, Mirion
county, arrived in the city Wednesday
evening from Newport, traveling on

nearly two weeks ago, ' he made the
trip from Albany in ten hours; return
ing, he came to this city iu.nine hours.
Thursday morning he continued his
ride to Portland, intending to reach
that city in the evening.
It is quite noticeable and is remarked
y strangers, the number of people
who may be seen on the streets of
evenings, there being a considerable in
crease over last year. The employes of
the carriage factory form a good portion
of this throng. Then there are between
twenty and twenty-five men employed
on the improvements of the streets, which
gives the city a very busy appearance.
Messrs. W. C. Noon, jr., and Lee
H. Wolfe, of Portland, passed through
this city Wednesday. They are taking
a tour of the state on their bicycles,
occupying three days in coming here
from Portland, having been delayed
by one or two accidents in the lower
part of the valley. They expect to be
out about two weeks, making Ashland
the southern limit of their journey,
after which they will return to Port
laud. ' .
M. Z. Earl, the civil engineer, goes
this week with a party to survey and
locate the line for the Coos Bay, Rose
burg & Eastern railroad. ' Twenty
miles of grading is already done and
ten miles of track laid at the Coos bay
end of the road. The contract calls
for the survey and location of the line
to Roseburg, a ..distance of about 64
miles, and probably four or six months
will be required to do this. Quite a
number of old railroad men will go
from here in the party, among whom
will be L. . A Whereat, Ernest Kort-
haucr and C. E. Nicholson.
Agricultural College Exhibit
Through the courtesy of Prof. H. T.
French we were tsken to the college
this week and shown the exhibit nhich
the state agricultural college will make
at the state fair next week. In Prof.
French's department will be, six head i
of thoroughbred cattle raised on the
college farm. One of these is a three-year-old
Shorthorn bull, purchased
when a calf from P. K. Waters, of
Eugene, and it now weighs 1805
pounds. There is also a Shorthorn
heifer, two years old next winter, which
now weighs 1065 pounds. In the
group we were also shown an Aber
deen Angus bull and heifer; the latter
aged two years, tips the scales at 1240, ,
having gained 70 pounds in the past
month, A cross breed Shorthorn and
Angus weighs at the age of ten months
1010 pounds. Several head of swine
will be included with the other live
stock. In the agricultural department
more than one hundred varieties of
grain will be exhibited and about a
dozen varieties of sweet corn. Prof.
Coote will show 130 different varieties
of potatoes, about 30 varieties of to
matoes and a large number of novel
ties in squashes, beans, cucumbers,etc,
the result of cross cultivation. Prof.
Craig will show a large collection of
prepared grasses and other botanical
specimens, while Prof Cove'l will ex
hibit from the mechanical department
numerous specimens of wood and iron
work done by students last year The
public will have a splendid opportu
nity to see at the fair just what the
college is doing foi the good of the ag
ricultural portion of the stale.
The Carriage Co.'s Exhibit.
The Corvallis carriage company has
just put the finishing touches to a lot
of buggies, hacks and other vehicles,
twelve in number, which are to be ex
hibited at the state fair. Wm. Creese
will have charge of the exhibit. They
also have ten rigs in course of con
struction for display at the Portland
exposition, their display here being
limited on account of confined space.
These exhibits will be a great surprise
to many of the people of our state who
will not be prepared to see such fine
goods turned out of our home factory,
The finish is equal to that of any east
em goods, and superior to most of it,
while there can be but one opinion
concerning the material and workman
ship it is the best possible to procure
Tlie peopie of the state will certainly
take an interest in this, as it is
strictly home industry and proves that
Oregon can. not only equal the pro
ductions of eastern states, but can sur
pass them.
The Pugilistic Mill. iv Oi
lcans for the past week has been a
scenevof excitement and ramiranu pu
coddled and feasted while another trio
are trying to explain to their backers
how it all happened. On Monday
night at the Olympic club house the
first of the series took place between
McAulLffe and Meyer, for the light
weight ciiampionsinp, ana attcr a
spirited b ittle the latter was knocked
out in the fifteenth round. On Tues
day evening the second battle of the
series 'took place between Skelly, of
Brooklyn, and Dixon, the colored
bantam of Boston, Dixon winning in
the eighth round. On Wednesday
evening the grand event of the entire
series, the mill between Sullivan and
Corbett occurred, and in the twenty
first round the great Boston champion
was knocked completely out. It was
a great surprise party to many, yet the
most of the Pacific coast sports antici
pated such a result. .
Messrs. Grant fc Wells were the
losers in a rather ludicrous manner of
a forty-pound package of candy last
week. It appears that two little girls
were in the store and Mr. Grant in a
sudden burst of (well, it must have
been unpremeditated) generosity, told
them that if they could cany the candy
which was in a large,wooden pail
home, they might have it. The young
sters took him at his word and at once
proceeded to make, off with the load of
sweets, and actually succeded in get
ting home with it, where -we
pi-esume they instituted - a small
carousal.
To be Repainted. Uncle Wil
liamson lias returned from Corvallis
and is once more diligently at work re
pairing the Oregon Pacific steamer
Hoag. Tho freight deck Ims been
calked and pitched, the engines have
been lined up and the canvas, or prom
enade deck has been overhauled. The
entire outside of the boat will be re
painted and by the time he is through
she will be in good condition for the
winter run. Statesman.
Kindeegaeten. rMiss Ida Booth,
of Newport, wishes to inform the
people of Corvallis that she wdl open
a kindergarten and private school at
the college chapel on. Sept- 19. For
further information apply to Mrs. Dr.
Thompson, Rev. Geo. F. Plummer, or

Extensive Preparations. Stu
dents are beginning to' arrive at the
state agricultural college and the pros
pects for a large attendance this year
are good. Mrs. Casto, matron of the
ladies' hall, arrived this week and un
der her direction a number of changes
in the interior arrangement of the
building are bein made. The car
penters are hlso busy fitting up
another room in the main college
building which will be occupied by a
portion of the preparatory department
in charge of Mrs. Callahan, which will
make two rooms in that department
instead of one. There has also been
a complete system of electric bells for
class use put in, which connect the
main building with the mechanical
hall, the carpenter and blacksmhh
shops, the printing office, the chemical
laboratory and the greenhouses, mak
ing connections with about twenty-five
departments. All the members of the
faculty are busy, especially President
Bloss and Prof. French, who, besides
their duties connected with the open
ing of school, have a great deal to do
toward the success of the farmers' in
stitute at the state fair. The fall term
opens on the 15th of this month and
every student should be present the
first day if possible.
Salem Steam Laundry. T. M.
Hamilton, the agent for the Salem
steam laundry, has decided to locate
permanently in this city. He has al
ready established a good business for
that company in this city, which bids
