So far as learned no trace of the remains was found. Tiie college this week purchased a one-horse lawn-mower. The extensive lawns of the college grounds require more work than can economically be given it with the ordinary hand mow ers, so the acquisition of the horse niower was decided npon. It appears to be a very handy peice of machinery. The public are hereby notified that a good sermon on the subject "Tem perance," by one of the ablest minis- . il. PaaIAo elr.no IV 1 11 Ka llll! . lished in pamphlet form at this office, and offered for sale in this city and elsewhere, the proceeds from which will bs for the benefit of two orphan children.

To-morrow afternoon there will be played on the college grounds a game of base ball befveen the Corvallis Jun- ors and the Young Eagles of Albany. It promises to he an interesting game. The home club puts up the following nine: Wm. Ray, c; Arthur Rbinehart, p; Will Kerr, s. s; Pearl Hutton, 1st b; Claude. Cariyle, 2nd t; Gjo. Clark, 3rd b; Benjamin Harrison, r. f; Geo. Simmons, c. (; Arty McFerrin, 1. f. ! Ed. Montgomery indulged in a little more pistol practice on Monday even ing at the Maple Shade saloon. It seems that he discharged the weapon to divert the attention of a couple of young men who were engaged in a war of words. The authorities sought to make a serious matter of the episode, and Ed. at once made himself scarce. He didn't relish the prospect of another term in the county jail. We notice by the Rural Spirit that our former townsman, Ralston Cox, has ta.en indulging his propensity for geod horaes. He lias just purchased from Fred W. Bier the black inbred mare, Aileen, by Altamont. Consider ation, $500. The Rural Spirit says: "The mare is in foal to Vinniont (3-yeir-old record 2:23.) son of AHamont. Name the foal, when it comes, Alta Mood, and if it don't lower Oregon's 2-year-old record when at that age we will give the owner a receipt for 50 years" subscription to the Rural Spirit." Jimmy Hayes can get more enjoy ment out of a little joke than any other man within the rane of our jk lowledge; and the other day when h ; inked a life-insurance man out cf te i dollars on a sure thing, his joy was such it caused temporary hert failure. Before he recovered he be came the central figure in a large group of sympathizing friends in front of a bar. A good d-iuk. of rye re vived him to such an extent that he re alized he was getting only a dollar and six bits in change for his ten, when he at once took a relapse. In the publication of the heavy tax payers of the county, we, in some man ner missed the names of the bankers. Job Bros, pay taxes in this county on $2G,76G. The business of the Firt National Bank is an open page, a sworn statement of the condition of this institution being published every three months. The paid up stock, $?0,000, is assessed to th? individual share-holders. These figures, of course cannot be taken as a guide to the re sources of the banks. M. S. Wood cock, president of the First Nationa is individually assessed at $18,915. Nelson Bros., who have for some time conducted the Wigwam barber shop, changed their place of business on Wednesday. Their trade had.j in creasee to such an extent lately that more commodious quarters became necessary, and while casting about for a suitable place they struck a bargain with T. C. Case of the Occidental shaving parlors and bath rooms, pur chased his fixtures, and will hereafter ruu three chairs. We understand that Mr. Case, however, will continue to preside over one of them. The prices are, for shaving, 15 cents on week days, 25 cents on Sundays and holi days, and lor baths, 25 cents. Wm. Grant, of Farfar, who recently sustained the loss of his fine summer hotel at that place, was in the city dar ling the week. Mr. Grant is preparing to rebuild, aud expects to have his new hotel ready for the reception of guests by the time the season opens. Many persons believe that the neck of land between Yaquina Bay and the ocean, constituting South Beach, will eyentu ally be the location of the principal coast city between Portland and San Francisco. On account of the future prospects of that portion of Lincoln county Mr. Grant entertains the be lief that the county seat may be located there, and at the proper time will make a liberal bid for it. FROM THE WORLD'S FAIR. Oregon is receiving a good many cheering words from Chicago in re spect to her exhibit at the world's fair. The following letter has been received by Mr. D. C. Rose, of this city: Your trees so kindly sent ns now occupy a prominent place in the Ore gon horticultural exhibit and is of great interest to all the people inter ested in prunes. Oregon leads all competitors and.on Tuesday, I hope to have the proud pleasure of tele graphing all Oregon that Oregon fruit receives the highest award, as U13 jury passes on that day.

OREGON PACIFIC CINDERS, A special train leaves Albany for Yaquina on Sunday nxt at 2 p. in. The indications are that the river will remain at a good boating stage un til late in the summer. Receiver Hadley was over to the bay this week looking after the com pany's interests in the Alice Blanchard, recently released. Under the present river schedule the boats tie up at this city. This arrange ment better enables the company to meet the demands on the river craft. The rolling stock and track m beiug improved and "repaired so that now trains make as good, if not better Jime OY.T a portiou of the road than Tany other road in the state. The government snag-boat is now engaged in removing obstructions in the river above Harrisburg, and should she complete the work before the water is too low, the Hoag will bring an excursion party from Eugene to Harrisburg or this city. The steamer Willamette Valley ar rived at Yaquina from San Francisco on Thursday afternoon with 24 passen gers. As usual, a train started east ward at once with the passengers aDd perishable freight The vessel sails Saturday with 750 tons of freight. A special train will leave Yaquina on Saturday afternoon for Albany to carry the Corbett excursionists. The train will pass Corvallis at 6:30, and return to Corvallis after the entertain ment. The faae for the round trip from Corvallis has been fixed at 50 cents. The Willamette valley merchants' excursion to San Francisco on the 27th inst, promises to be well patronized. It is creating considerable interest in the City of the Golden Gate, and the excursionists may expect the best kind of treatment by the business men of San Francisco. Some time ago the company began to repair and repaint all of the rolling slock of the road. Next week two passenger coaches, a mail car and an engine will come out of the shops and will take the place of the regular pas- j senger. OVther enrs will at once take the place of these in the shops. The only Pure Cream of Tartar Powder. No Ammonia; No Alum. Used in Millions of Homes 40 Y xs the Standard. CARRIAGE FACTORY NOTES. "Sup't. John Sticker was in Portland last week for a fw days. Visitors are always welcome, but no loafers or bummers are admitted. . A K.

Bjwersox left for Ejgene City Tuesday to attend the grand lodge of I. O. O. F. meeting on tha 17th, he being one of the dele gates from B.irnum lodge No. 7. He will return Fiiday ruoriting. "Water or no water!" In order to give tho employees nn opportunity to voleou this all important question, and to acquire the necessary information to vote intelligently on the subject, and to vote as honest American citizens, the factory was closed on Monday. The pleasant and warm weather cf the past two weeks has given a very desirable impetus to the carriage trade, and many persons are now se lecting their vehicles to be purchased at once. A great many visitors find t'leir way to the factory for this pur pose. A number of liverymen of the Willamette valley have placed their orders with the carriage factory for from one to a half-dozen different styles of vehicles, and we are informed that orders are being received daily by mail. D;s. Applewhite and Ptvnot, our eminent and highly respected physi cians, recently paid the factory a visit and were so well pleased with the work that before leaving they left an order for one of the No. 1 1 Portland spring road wagons. This is one of the lightest and best open buggies made at the factory, and is the first of the kind sold for use in this viciuity. Combining all of the qualities of lightness, symmetry, durability and strength, made of the best material obtainable throughout, full leather tiimmings, concord body, side spring, and being the easiest riding buggy in the state makes it especially adapted for the doctors' uss for, summoned in haste as so often occurs to make a long drive in it, instead of being worn out when the destination i3 reached, the reverse occurs, and one is refreshed and ready for business. The company expect to sell a great many of this style during the spring and summer. FROM MONROE. Alfred Howard and family took charge of Monroe hotel Monday. Wm. Price has rented his farm, and will move to Ashlr.nd for the health of his family. Ed. Williams started to Portland last Monday with 200 head of cattle which he and Milton Burnett have bought in the vicinity of Monroe. . Al. Tharp, who for three years has been a very successful renter on one of the Edwards farms, has now moved home to erect a neat bwnland. dwelling on his THE SUNDAY EXCURSIONS. About a hundred persons availed themselves last Sunday of the oppor tunity of viewing the Santiam scenery by taking passage o i the Corvallis an Albany excursion to Detroit.the termi nus of the eastern division of the Oregon Pacific. Those who went ex press themselves as having had delightful outing. At 10 o'clock Sunday morning the steamer Hoag arrived down with a large party of excursionists from Harrisburg and vicinity, among whom were a goodly number of former resi dents of Corvallis. The arrival of the excursionists was unexpected, but our citizens made their stay of severa hours as pleasant as possible. The good cheer of members of the party upon their departure at 3:30 gave evi dence that they had enjoyed the day. The Corvallis band and a number of others returned to Harrisburg with the party and report a iovous time. The band boys speak in high terms of the treatment they received at the hands of the officers of the boat. The Cor vallis party arrived back at 7 o'clock Monday morning. Wm.
