In these days of everlasting hard times it
is a pleasure to note that some of our mer

this, however, it is often necessary to secii
fice a portion of the profits, and that is
what Krausse Brothers are doing at this

afford to buy.
Prof. J. D. Letcher is on an extended

Lil. If he keeps her well to windward,
she is large enongh to affrd ample protec
tion from the strong sea breezes prevalent
at the islands during the summer months
which will necessitate some precautions on
the part of the professor to avoid being
blown into the Pacific.
There are several cases of whooping cough
about town and for some unaccountable
reasmi many of the children so affected are
permitted to play about the streets as if
nothing hail happened, ami are thus spread
ing the disaase daily among their playmates.
This matter should be looked into and
stopped. Persons affected with any con
tagious disease might not to he allowed to
leave their homes, and parents whose child -ren
have the whooping cough, should look
to it that they are kept from associating
with children who have not been exposed
to the sickness.
Mr. C. B. Winn, of Albany, has pur
chased a brand new Imperial wheel, and is
having lots of fun breaking it to the sad
dle. The other evening it got scared at a
threshiug engine and bucked him off in the
deep dusty road. After stroking its mane
and getting it somewhat quieted down, it
suddenly obeyed the beckoning call of a
chuck hole (an all bunch grass wheels will
do) and slammed him therein. Curt now
goes around done np in arnica and sur
geon's plaster while the wheel, stands hob
bled in the hack office.
The state improvements of the public
mineral springs at Sndaville are now in
course of construction. The state owns an
acre of lan l surrounding and including the
mineral springs and the last legislature ap
propriated $500 to improve this ground.
Those who have charge of the work have
planned a great deal more than the $500
will do, and the next legislature will be
asked to appropriate more money. The
work already beguu consists of a large summer-house
covering the springs. It is to
have cement floors on the lower story and
is to be a handsome structure when com
pleted.
The only really busy place at present in
Corvallis seems to be the can iage factory.
The reputation the company gained at the
outset for manufacturing nothing but first
class rigs, has had the effect each year of
strengthening the demand for their excel
lent work. There is hardly a day that they
do not ship several jobs' to adjoining towns
to say nothing of the trade in Portland and
California, which is increasing rapidly.
Monday, eight rigs consisting of buggies,
phaetons and carts were shipped overland
via Albany, to Shaffer & Clark, Salem.
Besides this one double seated carriage and
a road wagon were shipped to the same
firm by boat. The same day four wagons
were billed to Portland, one buggy to
Blodgetts and three rigs to Brownsville.
Fisherman's " Luck.
Last Sunday morning E. E. Wilson and
C. O. Wells left Corvallis at 6 a. m. iu a
buckboard. The vehicle was headed 'south
ward and was loaded with blankets, cook
ing utensils, "fish bait," rods and tackle.
Although they refused to disclose their
destination it was generally supposed that
they were bound for the headwaters of the
Siuslaw on a fishing trip. On Wednesday
they returned and as they drove dowu a
back street, presented a most woeful ap
pearance. Their burned faces denoted
d.iys of exposure in the hot sun and their
empty fish baskets told with no uncertain
ty that they had met with "fisherman's
luck" or else had been out of town on busi
ness other than fishing. Ed seems to have
a mania for fishing but was never accused
of being a success in this line. Even when
he used a trap the speckled beauties re
fused to be caught. Since their return the
boys have had nothing to say. They re
fuse to be interviewed and words of sym
pathy and pdvice are unappreciated.

County Court Doings.
Matters of considerable importance were
considered by the county court at their
meeting last week. After the official bonds
of the new officers had been approved,
sealed bids for"the construction of a span
bridge across the Alsea river were opened,
and George A. Ridinger, of Albany, was
granted the contract for 795. Other bid
ders and bids were as follows: J. B. Til
lotson, of Albany, 834; H. B. St. John,
81,050; H. M. Stone, 1.090; W. M. St.
John, 1,093; A. F. Peterson. 1.144; W.
M. Spencer and Joseph Taylor. 1467.
A bill for 150 was allowed for changing
the channel of the Alsea river by bnilding
of a ditch and a dam.
A county road was established and or
dered opened, from the south fork of the
Alsea river to Alder creek on the Bryson
place, a distance of fourteen miles.
The bond of D. C. Rose, as commander of
Ellsworth Post No. 19 G. A. R., was ap
proved. The law of 1891 provides for the
care of indigent sailors and soldiers, or
their widows or orphans by contributions
from the county instead of being sent to
the poor farm. As mo-t of such fundi are
disbursed through the G. A. R., the bond
above referred to is given as a guarantee
for the faithful disbursement cf all moneys
passing through his hands for such pur
pose. The county clerk was empowered to em
ploy one deputy whose salary was fixed at
70 per month. Clerk Hunter has selected
T. E. Wilson as such deputy.
The bills of Paul Dodele and others for
services as guards on election day at Soap
creek were rejected.
1 "Cupid Warren and Harper craner
I while driving up from Albany last Saturday
afternoon met with an accident that caused
them to arrive here several hours behind
time. The horse they were driving became
scared at a pack animal while descending
the Stewart grade about three miles below
town, and jumped to one side, causing a
wheel to collapse. The horee was detached
fr-Mfi the vehicle and leading the animal, the

shottly overtaken by 'James1 Eglin who,
' happily for them was returning from Albany
' in a two seated rig all alone,, and conveyed
A New Jail Needed.
From the events of the past month the
county court as well as the taxpayers of
Benton county realize that a mistake was
made when the contract was aunulled with
the Pauly Jail company for the erection of
a county bastile. At the last meeting of
the court a bill for the capture of Scott and
Hall and another one for 60 for services
rendered in guarding the jail nearly took
their breath away aud the guard was or
dered dismissed. During that night the
birds got in their work and in the morning
a hole was discovered in the wall through
which Scott and his companion proposed
effecting an exit. An official examination
followed that iiiselosed many facts touch
ing the inefficiency of the building for the
purpose designed. The inner wall through
out was found to have been plastered with
mud instead of with mortar; the joists were
rotten and many other defects were noticed,
and as a result some inexpensive repairs
were ordered that it is thought will make
the building temporarily secure.
In disenssing the matter the utilization of
the basement room immediately under the
sheriff's office in the southwest coiner of the
court house, suggested itself as a proper
place for a jail. The space is 24x28 feet,
and sufficient to hold three steel cages, each
of which will accommodate four prisoners.
Such cages are manufactured by the Pauly
Jail Co., St. Louis. Together they are
14x24 feet. The width, 14 feet, includes a
four foot passage way in front of the cells.
Inside this enclosure is located the sink,
watcrcloset, etc The steel of which these
cages are manufactured is very hard and
cannot be cut or worked except with all
the latest improved appliances, which it
would be impossible for prisoners to get
hold of. Several years ago when material
and labor were morw costly than they now
are, the Pauly Jail company agreed to re
construct the present jail for 3,150. For
this price a mausml roof was to be built;
a cement floor to be laid, and the building
when completed would present an attrac
tive appearance. Besides this cells were to
be provided and the jail left in a tenable
condition with closets, waterpipe and sewer
connections all compley. The court i.i of
the opinion that for 2 500 or less the cages
could be purchased and placid in thu court
house basement ready for occupancy. They
have also under consideration the cost of
the reconstruction of the old jail. As it
will C ist but little more and from a sani
tary standpoint be far bettor than the base
ment plan, it is not improbable that Ben
ton county will have a new jail before
manv months.
Will Take Front Rank.
Another Corvallis boy that is on the high
road to fame and fortune is Ruthyn Turney.
He arrived last Saturday from Seaside,
Clatsop county, where he has been spend
ing a year as the pupil of Herr A.iniul'l, the
world renowned violinist. Mr. Turney i3
his only scholar and was indeed fortunate
in meeting with an opportunity to pursue
the study of music under such a thorough
master. As he i possessed of talent of a
rare order and pursues his studies unrelent
ingly there is little doubt that h'j will soon
talte front rank anion the violinists of
America. The Astoria Budget in com
menting on a grand concert given July 4th
under the auspices of the Schubert club of
that city, at which time both Mr. Aamold
and Mr. Turney appeared, says: "Part two
of the program was opened with a viola
solo by Ruthyn Turney,- entitled, 'Dud
ziarz. ' The soft silver tones of the insru
ment held the audience spell bound for the
time being, and Mr. Turney 's execution of
Wieniawski's beautiful piece shows a re
markable conception of that master."
Ruthyn will visit here a few days longer
and then return to join Mr. Aamold, when
they will play a short concert tour through
the valley and at the various coast resorts.
Herr Aamold is a great favorite iu Corvallis
and bis concert, which will be given here
about the 25th inst. , will be looked for
ward to with great pleasure, not only on
account of his own popularity but because
at that time an opportunity will be
afforded to pass judgment upon the pro
gress made by his pupil and also upon his
merit as a performer on the violin.
Council Proceedings.
At the regular meeting of the city
fathers Monday evening all members
were present excepting Councilmen
Peet and Smith. From their action on
the salary question it is evident that a
sentiment of retrenchment has invaded
the deliberations of the council to a
marked degree. Reductions in official
salaries were made as follows: Chief of
police, from$5oto $45 per month; night
watchman, from $2 to 1.75 per night;
police judge, from 50 to $35 per month
and city treasurer from 520 to $12 per
month. This makes a total saving of
l45-5o per month or 546 per annum.
The finance committee made an un
favorable report on the liquor bond of
Hodges ifc Adolph and bond was rejected.
When a saloon license is granted a bond
in the sum of S500 is required by the
city as a guarantee for the keeping of
an orderly house. At a meeting of the
council the following evening a new
bond was submitted which was promptly
approved.
J. A. Cauthorn was granted permission
to enact and maintain a set of hay scales
on Monroe street near the Hotel Cor
vallis, he having received the written
consent of property owners in that vicin
ity. Claims to the amount of 350
against the general fund were allowed
and against the street fund $100.
Chief Engineer WTiitehorn reported
that fire hydrant located at corner of
Second and Taylor streets was inopera
tive. It was ordered replaced by a new
one.
On Tuesday evening $10 per month
was voted to the City Transfer company
for street sprinkling service to be in
augurated and maintained until the wet
season begins.
A committee of five consisting of Wag
goner, Gibson, Samuels and Peet with
mayor as- chairman, were appointed and
instructed to ascertain the cost of an at
torney to defend- the city in the, water
bond case,.
TABLES TURNED AT LAST
The Blue Ribbou of the Seas
Won by Britannia Vigi
lant Defeated.
It is now forty years since the famous
yacht America was built and sent across
the Atlantic to teach the haughty Brit
isher how to build, equip and sail a
"fiyef." The story is an old one, and
dear to every American's heart, how a
whole fleet of English yachts, from the
40-touner up to the three-masted 300
ton schooner, turned out a:id wrestled
for supremacy in a day's sail around the
Isle of Wight a small island some
twenty miles long and fifteen miles
broad that lies off of the south coast .of
England. Tradition has it that Eng
land's young, and then pretty queen set
upon the deck of her steam yacht look
ing up the home stretch for signs of the
winning boat. As the America hove in
sight tossing her saucy sails in all the
gladsome frolic of victory, the august 1
lady asked her lieutenant what boat that
might be, roundiug the distant head
land. "The America, Your Majesty!"
"And what boat is second?" "Your
Majesty, there is no second!"
In the past forty years at various in
tervals, the intrepid Britisher has sent
his challenge over here to get the cup;
but in vain. His boats have been good,
each faster than its predecessor but not
fast enough. To do him justice, the
noble Briton has labored under a serious
disadvantage in the fact that, when he
sends a challenge he has to send also
the full dimensions of his boat, her
length, tonnage, sail-spread, and various
other details, which must be of particu
lar value to the Herreshoff or the Bur
gess who sits himself down at his
I draughting board to design a boat to
j beat her. More than this, he usually
j races his boat over in English waters
j before coming here; and, as the Ameri
can cup committee always have a repre
sentative over in English waters, for the
'express purpose of watching the per
j formauces of the challenging boat, it
j follows that the man who designs the
. champion American boat is in possession
j of full particulars regarding the boat he
i has to beat he knows not merely her
: dimensions and model but also her best
j and worst points of sailing an immense
advantage in such a competition of
designer's skill. Of late years the Amer
ican boat has always been a little better
than her opponent and she ought to
be. Moreover, the challenger is one
boat; but the defender is chosen from
several boats each of which is designed
to beat the foreigner, another obvious
advantage. Had this latter advantage
been allowed the Britisher, the Britan-
i nia would have come over last ear in
I J
' place of the slower Valkyrie, and the
American cup would now be reposing in
the vaults of the Royal Yacht club at
Cowes, England. But as the English
man had to name his boat before he
br.ilt her that could not be, and the
Valkyrie came and was beaten.
It has always been a boast of the Eng
lish yachtmen, that the American boats,
with their great beam, comparatively
shallow draught, and excessive sail
spread, could not "do the trick" in the
j more stormy and squally British waters.
Last year, it was resolved to test this
statement; and Mr. Carroll gave the
j Herreshoffs an order for a large racing
I yacht which should cross the "herring
pond" and stop the mouths of these
blusterers. The Navahoe was built, and
bearded the lion in his den (if so un
nautical a metaphor may be allowed in
this connection). She was beaten by
the Prince of Wales' now famous yacht
Britannia, and failed to bring home the
cup.
This year the Vigilant, vanquisher of
the Valkyrie, was sent across to avenge
her sister's defeat. She has raced four
times, and came off with honors, for
although beaten, it has usually been by
small margins. These races have taken
place in the Firth of Clyde, a land-locked
bay. The winds have been variable,
some of the races being sailed in light,
and one of them in a very strong wind.
It will be interesting to see what she
does when it comes to racing in the
open, where the sea is lumpy and the
whitecaps show themselves.
Costs and fJDisbursements.
An investigation of the annual financial
exhibits for the past five years shows that
the expenses for Benton county are decreas
ing ech year. Though this be truo the
amouut of outstanding warrants is increas
ing as is evidenced by the following figures:

Wearing the Grave.
In old age infirmities and weakness hasten
to close the gap between us and the grave.
Happily scientific research and pharmacal
skill have allied themselves in furnishing us
a reliable means of ameliorating the ailments
incident to declining years, and of renewing
waning physical energy. Its name is Hos
tetter's Stomach Bitters, a widely compre
hensive lemedy in disease, and an inestim
able blessing to the elderly, the feeble and
the convalescent. Rheumatic ailments,
trouble with the kidneys and -lumbago are
among the more common ailments of the
aged. These are effectually counteracted by
the Bitters, which is likewise a prevention
and curative of malarial complaints, dys
pepsia, constipation and billiousness. It is
highly promotive of appetite, sleep and the
acquisition of vigor.
Notice is hereby given to the public
that there is no strike on at Spencer &

Of Interest to Bicyclists;
O. H. Pearse and family, Mrs. J. L.
Spangler, sou ami two daughters, Thomas
Samuels and family and Miss Erma Law
rence left Wednesday morning for a month's
outing in the mountains about forty miles
west of Corvallis, on Rock creek. They
are well supplied with provisions, fishing
tackle, guns and animation aud expect to
have a glorious time. Already several
rules have been agreed upon and all visitors
to the camp will be governed accordingly.
The rates for board have been fixed at, one
meal 01; more meals more dollars. Gentle
men will not swear within thirty miles of
cimp. The coat of arms selected is quite
appropriate. It is a trout passant in fry
ing pan rampant. Motto, "b'riud in But
ter." Between the gentlemen's and ladies'
bathing apartments will be stretched one
string. Should this prove insufficient one
more string will be brought into use. Each
day more rules will be added to the camp
regulations and within a week they will be
quite voluminous. Visitors will be ex
pected to follow the provisions of each rule
to the letter. Charley says he has already
been consulted by several of the beaux of
Corvallis relative to the route to their
camp and the practicability of getting there
by wheel. Ha assures them that there will
be no difficulty in reaching the camp by
bicycle. On reaching Nashville bicyclists
will leave the main road, turn to the right
ami pass through the ranch of Mr. Wallis
Nash from which place the camp will be
located not far distant. The iuteuse in
terest manifested by the boys in learning of
the camp's location and best way of reach
ing it is probably due to the fact that
Misses Ora Spangler, Anna Samuels and
Erma Lawrence will accompany the party
and the fellows can't bear to think of their
absence for four long weeks without mak
ing some provisions for visiting them. As
the Oazktte office is the headquarters for
bicyclists we have spared no pains in look
ing up the m st advantageous route for
those who iut'jud making the trip each
week.
Later The male members of the Al
bany Eastern Star are also solicitous as to
the movements of the young ladies aud the
location of their camv.
A Life Saved.
Last Monday afternoon about 3 o'clock
an unknown man- was seen running
down Madison street. At the corner of
Second street he changed his course
diagonally across the street. The man
was covered with dust from head to foot
aud it was evident from his gait that he
had come a great distance and that he
was much fatigued. On reaching the
sidewalk in front of Nelson Bros.' bar
ber shop he fell forward and lay in a
seemingly insensible condition, with one
arm encircling the barber pole. The
! Nelson boys lifted the man up and car
ried him into their shop, but he still re
mained in a comatose condition and a
physician was sent for. The man's
hair and beard was long and iinkept,
and as he was dusty and dirty and no
doctor had arrived, Cupid Warren sug
gested he be given a bath. But this
failed to revive him and it was not un
til he had been placed in the chair and
given a clean shave aud fresh hair-cut
that he regained consciousness. The
stranger thanked his benefactors aud
went his way extolling the virtues of
bath, shave and hair-cut at Nelson Bros.,
and how they had saved his life.
New O. P. Time Card.
The new time card put into effect last
Wednesday on the Oregon Pacific is
proving a great convenience to the trav
eling public and its adoption was hailed
with delight by the train crews. By the
new schedule passenger train No. -i
leaves Yaquina at 7 a. m. arriving at
Corvallisat 11:15; returning leaves Cor
vallis at 1:15 p. m. and arrives at Ya
quina at 5:20. Hereafter the regular tri
weekly freight will leave Corvallis west
bound at 9:20 a. m. on Mondays,
Wednesdays and Fridays; returning,
leave Yaquina Tuesdays, Thursdays and
Saturdays at 7:30 a. m.
Net Receipts for June $20.
The Oregon Pacific is one of the kind of
railroads you don't read about these days.
Its trains run regularly and its men are
paid regularly from the traffic receipts from
which there is each thirty days a balance
left on the credit side of the ledger. Last
month it was small only $20, which shows
careful management to Keep within the
narrow margiu and thus avoid an excess of
expenditures over receipts. Besides pay
ing all operating expenses, and keeping up
the system of betterments inaugurated last
month, Iieceiver Clark has replaced 5000
old ties with new ones and driven 5:00
piles iu the piers of the Albany bridge.
MAKES ITSELF FELT
the great, griping, old-fashioned pill.
Not only when you take it, but un
pleasant, from first to last, and it only
gives you a little temporary good.
The things to take its place are Dr.
Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. One of these
at a dose will regulate the whole system
perfectly. They're tiny, sugar-coated
granules, scarcely larger than mustard
seeds. They act in Nature's own way.
5To reaction afterward. Their help lasts
and they do permanent good. Consti
pation, Indigestion, Bilious Attacks, Sick
or Bilious Headaches, and all derange
ments of the liver, stomach, and bowels
are prevented, relieved, and cured.'
They're the cheapest, for they're guar
anteed to give satisfaction or money is re
turned. Nothing can be "just as good."
James Dolan, who was formerly em
ployed as shoemaker with Krausse Bros.,
and who attempted suicide Monday
morning, is improving. Krausse Bros,
beg to inform the public that he is no
longer in th,eir employ, but that they
are selling foot wear at greatly reduced
prices and their accommodating man

to show their stock. Their new line of
Oxford ties and Prince Alberts should be
seen by every lady. -' . t

Isn't it about time the Times was stir
ring up the "orphan" racket again. An
influence as horrible as that should not
rest simply because election is over.
I understand there is an effort being
made to secure the pardon of John Sav

be characters that Pennoyer "caters to."
Despite the hopes of the farmer the
aphis is doing much damage in our val

left in the stem to mature the grain.
John Skaggs has been on the sick list
