Fulton . The music, all of hitrli order, was excellent ly rendered, and win tha probation of all those who enjoyed it, There were sixt'.en cootestauts '; 6i'g!it from each society. These wore arranged in pairs on the programme, as iudicated above. Tho jmlges graded the coutestanta according to a comprehensive plan of marks devised by President Illoss. Two thousand poiDts were the highest possible number attainable by either society. The Cicerouiaua received 1838 points; the Wcbsteriana received I8CS4 points. Tho markings opposite the respective names aro given in condonsed form above; and are tho result, as the board of judges gave them to President F.loss. President F.I0S3 then announced in his graceful manner that, while both societies had dona thomselvcsgrcat credit, the judges had decided that the Wcbstorhms had won; and that tho gold medal was theirs until tho C'iceroniaus could take it from them, and that thero would be another contest, for that purpose nexs Juno. At the close of a neat presentation speech, he passed the gold medal to Pres. N. J. Eowau, of the Ciceronian society, who placed it upiiu L. L. Swann, president of tho Websterian society. Doth presidents then responded to calls. for speeches. Without exaggeration this was the finest presentation of amateur talent that has ever appeared upon the stage ot corvaliis. There was eloquence in the ncme and na ture of it; there were plain, solid ability and taleDt displayed, nnveneered and in the bare guise of genuine worth, as tho contest was pressed by its champions for each of tho two societies. This was especially ob servable in the debates, where extempore answers had to be made, so quickly that the common charge of "cramming" could not apply; and with this regard, the four parti cipants are really to be complimented opon their worthy efforts. " Public sentiment in Corvaliis was consid erably wrought up in admiration over the contest. So very eveuly matched' wero the two contesting parties in public estimation that it ia questionable whether they would not have reversed the verdict had. they beon the monitors upon the question of merit; yet all duly respect the decision of the judges, and while the Webstoriana aro con gratulated upon their succeosi the Ciceroui ans are none the less heartily commended for their able presentation and valliaut- con duct iu the test for supremacy. It was a graceful affair crowning all participants with the laurels of honor, no matter who carried off the token of conquest. THE JUDGES SPEAK.. Senator McGinn, cf Multnomah county, then stated that he had often longed from time immemorial to be a judge, aud that ho was now satisfied. He said some of the work dono during tho evening would have beeu a credit to the Supreme Court of tho United States. Repreacntatives King of Malheur aud Brown of Douglas theu eulo gized the work done by the societies and the State Agricultural College. Represent ative King was formerly a student in this college, aud afterward graduated from a law school) in " Indiana. Pvepresentative Brown ia a graduate from one of Oregon's normal schools aud has taught several years. Senator McGinn is a graduate from the University of Oregon, and i3 practicing law iu Portland. THE COLLEGE LITERARY SOCIETIES, There are now five active literary socie ties for the accommodation of the 275 stu dents in the agricultural college. The Hes perian Lyceum is the oldest and meets ev ery Friday night. At the beginning of the year President Bloss organized the college students iuto two literary . societies known as the Wcbsterians and the Ciocronians. He also organized the preparatory studen e into tha Mad isonians and the Athen ians. These societies are subdivided iu chapters so that each student attends a s ciety meeting each week, and performs twice a mouth. The Madisonians and Demostheneans will try fer the silver medal at. an early date. ; , - The students at the college are becoming very deeply interested in their work; the college interests- are daily gaining, and it is the general sentiment that the Salem Journal was correct in its statements about the work of Pres. Eloss. 1 . 50TES. Recently both the Websterian and Cice ronian societies have adopted a badge each the Websteriaus having chosen for their colors the blue and orange, while the Ciceronians have taken the crimson and orange. " ' ' The prize medal contested forls of gold, handsomely fashioned in the shape of a scalloped shield hanging pendant from a crescent formed scroll, upon the face of whieh is inecribedr "The Victors. O. A. C. Prize MedaL Wobsterian and Ciceron ian Societies." : On the transverse side is inscribed the sentence of manly advice: Win with modesty; lose with cheerful ness. It is a treasured mue lausmau. CITY COUNCIL ITEMS.

The city hall c:ramitteo reported that the new building was completed nnd were nstructed to furninh tha interior of the same, build new walks, etc. A communication from the Merchants' protective ami business association remind ing tho council that a committee had some time since been instructed to procure punch clocks for the city; that such com mittee had so Jar failed to fulfill that duty, and sr.ggested that the council should re quire the business to be attended to either by tho old committee or a new one, was laid on the table. A VALUABLE KErOIiT. The Capital Journal speaks as follows of the valuable report of Superintendent E. B. McElroy: "The biennial report of the state superin tendent of public instruction will bo found a very valuable resume of our state school system. Iu it will be found the statistics of our system from 1S73 to 1SC2 inclusive; a complete showing of all the state and pri vate institutions if learning; the organiza tion and work of the state board of educa tion with its rules and dicisions; the eutiro system of teachers' examinations aud au thorized text books;- the statu school worn, including institutes held aud Arbor day and Coluinbus day exorcises, and preparations for a world's fair exhibit, and closing with a very interesting summary of the suggestions made by city and county superiutendents. 1 he report of Prof. 11 B. McElroy for 1S93, contains 251 pages of matter and will comparo very favorably with the beat of its kind in the older states, .where public edu cation is cbnductod . with far more enter prise, aud with far less indifference on the part of the people. This report, beyond all others; should be in the hands of the legisla tor for purposes of careful study when he returns to his home. lie can serve hia con stituents aud his generation in no better manner than than by a thorough mastery of its contents, and if perchauce he ever returns to the halls of legislation he will be better prepared to serve them intelligently. ' " THE MARINE MINSTRELS. The coming performance of the Marine Minstrols as a benefit to the Marine band at tht opera house, Wednesday evening Feb. 22d, promises to be a good one, as the boys have been to Considerable expense and no pains have been spared to make it a success.

In times past a common cold was not consider ed at all serious, but of late years the great tondency of colds to result in pneumonia has made people apprehensive. The trouWe is that cohl8 are not always properly treat ed. No preparation containing opium, wild cherry or chloroform should be used, as thny have a tendency to dry tip a cold, whereas it should be looseued aud the lungs relieved. It I1&3 been observed that when Chamber lain's Cough Remedy i3 used the cold never results in pneumonia. The reason is that thia remedy stimulates the mucus mem brane which lines the throat and lungs, to a healthy action, causes iree expectoration, throwing off tho poisonous matter, and counteracts any tendency toward pneumo nia.
