Myers, president of the World's fair commission, reports everything as progressing favorably, and thai there is no doubt that the Oregon exhibit will be in Chicago and in place on time for the opening on May 1st. This is, of course, upon the basw of the representations mads up to date by the heads of the depart ments in me neia gathering and pre- Hiring the same. No relaxation of eflf rt should be made in any quarter, however, that might cause any delay. 1 lie Oregon coinimsiou are doin their best to arrange with the manage nieiu so mat new nesn nuits ana pro ducts can be added to the exhibit as the season arrives for them to mature. wnetner tney win succeed or not is as yet a question. Mr. Myers says that the fishermen have responded nobly and will have a magnificent exhibit in his department of siilmou and other fish from the Col umbia and southern Oregon rivers and from the coast bays. A BIG TIMBER DEAL. SCHOONER WRECKED. Concerning the vessel that came ashore at Yaquina Wednesday after noon, particulars are very meagre. A note received by Cam Hemphill from his father, living on the bay, states that the wreck is a 3-niast schooner; that she floated in on the tide at 1 o'lock p. m., Wednesday and grounded on South beach, inside the jetty, opposite the south beach hotel. She is a large vessel and is full of wa ter. The Albany Herald learned that the name of the schooner is the "Al ice Blanchard," but nothing else as to her identity, nativity, crew or carfo had been reported at last accounts in this city. It seems that Receiver Hadley and Supt. Mulcahv, cf the O. P. com puny were informed of the wreck Wednesday evening, and im mediately took a special for the bay with the hope of assisting the vessel off the sands with the tug at Yaquina. Mr. Hemphill states iu his note that she will go to pieces. GOING TO BROWKSVILLE. SPRING ! fll i in lui e SP&ENtf ! 59- A hardwood deal of considerable magnitude is reported to have been consummated at this place on Wednes day last, involving a no less historical location than the Greenberry Smith island, a few miles south of Corvallis. Max Friendly, of this city, was the purchaser. The tract comprises 1200 acres of the choicest ash and maple timber in this section of the state. A nominal price was paid and the timber, being easy of access to the Willamette river, can be rafted to the mills at slight expense and placed on the market at a reasonable figure. A. W. Symmes, representing the nursery department of Posson's large seed emporium and nursery interests of Portland, has been in the city sev eral days taking orders, and expects to remain some days further. A new thing he has to introduce is the "Web foot fertilizer." The newly elected officers of the Christian Endeavor society of the Presbyterian church ares Henry An drews, president; Miss Lois Stewart, vice president; Charles Porter, reading secretary; Miss Mollie Spencer, corres- nondinz. secretary; Miss Mollia Voor- fcees, treasurer. A boxful of the pollywogs known in the Oregon dialect as "cat-fish' prob ably because they look some more like cat-fisbthan they da like a whale-back ateariter was on exhibition on the street one- day last week, and ereated bo little curiosity. The fish were brought to turn loose in various streams in his section, and cam iroru Portland- . ' All old residents, says- the Dalles. Times-Mountaineer, feel certain that the June freshet will cause the Colnm bi to overflow its banks considerably. Thera ia sufficient snow in the moun tains to cause as high water as was in 1876, and some expect the mark spoken of by MrCrate in I8ti to be reached the bluff south of the Metho dist cburcb- I uesday afternoon the report went flying about the streets that a man was about to die at the city iail. Dr. Wil son was called and found the man suf fering from a lesion of the heart but the worst of the attack was over and he was coming around all right. The doctor gave him a needed heart emoli- ent and with the advice to take a good rest could da no more for him. The stranger, whose name was not learned, i-i said to be a sailor discarded from his calling because of his inability to work aloft, and he had made his way on foot to this part of the country from tne coiumoia river. JNotmng turtner was known of his intentions or identity, excopting that he was out of money, and was c treu for in his distress at the county poor house. The leading members of the athletic association of the Oregon Agricultural college are making arrangements to go to Brownsville on the 2 2 ml lust, and there give a rendition of their pro gramme which won so much applause and creditable comment when it was recently presented here. Their feats upon the horizontal bar and their fly ing ring gyrations, together with their general atheletic make up, made racy by the clowns who belong to the party, will afford our neighbors on the east side with an evenings entertainment of geuine interest and amusement, Keady, who carries the medal for the champion club swinger of the state of Oregon, will be one of the party to in terest the audience with Ins skillful manipulation of the clubs an act which ho never fails to accomplish u. S. Martin will chaperone the per formance aud as Brownsville is Barn ey s termer liome it is in order to bespeak for him and his associates a successful and satisfactory tour. THE Y'S OPEN MEETING. It will bo to your advantage to step into Nolan's store and see the stacks of goods already there, wnile many more are constantly arriving. One is thus assured fo the fact of which he was well persuaded before, that the proprietor has stated the truth in claiming to have this year the largest and most attractive stock of mens youths', boys' and children?' clothing, furnishing goods, hats, shoes, neck ties, etc, erer brought to the city. There are a lot of "special bargains" in clothing, which for prices on the quality of goods defy the record of the past. It will pay you to call in and see for yourself, examine goods and be convinced. The Y's held a very interesting meeting at the Presbyterian church last Tuesday evening. The audience was lavored with a very appropriate reading by Miss Birdie Osburn; Mr. A.M. Weaver rendered a recitation in a very creditable manner, portraying well the effects of intemperance in the darky's home, over which even the sol emest forgot their gravity for a moment and gY vent to their feelings in smothered chuckles. The solo by Don Ray was fine as usual. Rev. Gould delivered an excellent address of fifteen minutes which was well appreciated by all. It can be truly said that the Y, are accomplisning a great deal. They are showing an ability and willingness in their work that would be creditable to any organization, and so may they continue, while they should be heartily encouraged bv the community in thei noble work.

The Easter serrices at tlie Congrega tional Church on Sunday evening were a decided success. The chin-ch was filled even to calling the gallery into requisition. The Sunday school which has grown to twice its former size was well represented.

The room was densely packed with people at the introductory meeting. Captain Bryant and his wife, Mrs. Zimmerman and another lady compose the exhorters, and ncccrdinc to their usual custom they began the campaign with spirited work, in a tone ot earn estness that could hardly fail to be heard by anyone , within the building. They came from Eugene to this place and are the sa me people who recently stirred the people of Philomath to such a religious awakening. The board of regents' meeting last Monday was for the purpose of appoiut ing a buildiug committee. The com mittee appointed was Governor Fen- no er, Supt Mcl-lroy, Hon. A. 1C Shipley: assisted by Pres. Bloss.
