W TTia beat tima vat reenrded bv whea'altm - j - - --- j between Albany and Corvallis was that made last Sunday by Bruce Bnrnett and Chaa Small in 44 minutes. It may be in teresting: in this connection to state that the distance, - as registered by their cyclo' maters from the Revere House to Nolan's corner, in this city, was 11 J miles. Here. tnfore, it has been generally understood thst ths distance between the. two towns was only ten miles. A W Tim fi7ETTR wmild have been nleased to make an item of the birth of a girl baby to the wife of Frank Lilly, that occurred last Sandsy morning, were it not for the faot that the father willfully and, we think, with malice, deceived us. He made a pos itive agreement with the Gazette force to the effect that the Times should not have a "scoop" on the item, but its issne f Mon day contained a fall account of ths affair, so this psper refrains from mentioning the matter. . A ..A deed for the Fe'ger mill property was filed for record Saturday. Ia addition to the mill and site, abont 41 acres of land were conveyed, the consideration . being $3G00. Paul J. G.

' She has been re engaged for next sessoa by Mr. Wilson Bar rett, and will sail for England. July 20th. Ths following highly complimentary men tion of Mis Hoffman's work during the company's Washington engagement is taken from the Post: Next to Mr. Barrett the best acting was doss by Miss Hoffman, as Berenice, Msrcia's jealous rival. Ia several scenes her dramatic force carried her to a manifestation of positive genius. Hon. C. K. Wilkinson, of Portland, has sccepted the invitation of the" Corvallis Celebration Committee to deliver the ora tion here Jnly 4th. Mr. Wilkinson is wel known as one of the brightest yonng men of the state. During tbe 1893 session of ' ths legislature ha represented Lane county and at that time gained considerable prominence on account of his eloquence and also oh account of being the youngest mem ber of that body of lawmakers. . At the time of his election he was only twenty years of age, his 21st birthday noearring in Decem ber previous to the convening of the legis lature. Monday, Regents B. Killen,- J. Yoorheer, and H. B. Miller arrived in Corvallis. These gentleman constitute a committee appointed at a recent meeting' of the college board to investigate ths financial affairs of ths institution.

The other special committee to investigate the faculty, and report what, if any, changes 'ars neces sary, consists of Superintendent ' Irwin,. W. E. Yates and T. W. Davenport.' Thsy will likely meet next Monday, in order to be able to report to the board at the .annual meeting which is set for the 25th insi.

The road in qaestion has been thoroughly graded un der th direction of Supervisor Houck and with the money raised by Mr. Eglin it is sxpeeted to defray th expense of giving tha road a thorough coating f gravel. The work of hauliug-the gravel began last Fri day. Manager Stone, of th O. C. &.. E. states that tha outlook for summer travel is most flattering. There is every indication, he says, to believe that Yaquina and other fa vorite resorts along the. line will attract more people this season than ever before. This is especially' true with regard to fortlanders, who have heretofore shown a preference for resorts at th month of the Columbia, but who ara already making ar rangements fof spending their outing this year at Newport. . Idahna is' also to be more liberally patronized than formerly, This place, well up ths Saatiam river, has grown in favor each year since its establish ment until now it is on of the favorite mountain resorts of the state.

IAWYER MCFADDBN'9 KBW HOME DESTROYED. Tuesday night, for the first time in about five months, the old fire Sell announced to the residents of Corvallis that a fire was on. On reaching the street one was at loss for a moment to locate the blaze, but soon a bright light to the westward totd that the alarm was turned in on account of a fire on College hill. ' At first it wss thought by mauy to be either the college green house or the residence of Prof. Geo, Coote. How ever, on reaching the scsne, it was found that the magnificent new residence of ex Mayor McFadden was a mass of flames, aud that its total destruction was inevitable, owing to tha headway the flames had at tained, and, also, to the entire lack of water protection in the vicinity of the bnrning bnildinar. . There seems to be no donbt that the fir was of incendiary origin. Tuesday evening after ' finishing Work Metsr. Baker and Barnhardt, who were employed in building; the structure, swept out the b iilding, and before leaving it had carefully fastened all windows and doors. On this account it is supposed the fiends were unable to gain an entrance to the house, and so applied th match to the exterior, after having first sat urated same with coal oil. At any rate, the flames were first noticed on the south side; or rather, south-west corner of the dwelling and simultaneously with the bursting forth of the blaze several of the college students claim to have seen two men sneaking sway from tha seen. That kerosene was used is evidenced by ths faot that the flames ran exceedingly high from the first discovery of the fire, and also, from the rapid spread of the blaz?, as seemingly but an instant had elapsed until the entire structure was . en veloped in a seethinglnass of flame. Owing to the intense heat, th flames were soon communicated to a frnit house situated some distance t the south of the dwelling. For tunately, however, a quantity of paints and oils, stored therein, were removed to a place of safety before the" fruit house began burning. - ;. The building was a largs two story frame structure, and was tapidly nearing comple tion. The carpenter work had been finished with th exception of two or three hours work that. was to have been done yesterday morning. The clothing; and exterior paint ing had also been completed, and within a few weeks would have been ready for occu pancy. The loss will not be under 2,500. Fortunate! v. however, the iudee had $1,000 of insurance in the Continental placed with K. m. VV uson about tnree weeks ago. At the time of the fire Mr., McFadden was in j Salem, attending to soma legal business be- j fore tbe supreme court. - An attempt was 1 made to communicate with him immediately after the fire, but it wasfound impossible to locate him, and not until his arrival in Cor vallis, Wednesday noon, was he aware of the loss he had sustained during bis brief absenec from the city.

Less than'' a mouth ago Frank Marshal was released from the Benton connty jail, after hiving served a 40-day sentence for the crime of indecent exposure. Since gaining his liberty ha has been convicted in Lane county on a charge of rap and is now in th . penitentiary serviog a fonr years term in expiation of his crime. His exploits are told by th Albany Democrat as follows: . Sheriff Johnson, of Lane' county,' passed through Albany this n66n5 for Salom with Frank Marshal, who wag sentenced this morning at 8 o'olock to th penitentiary for attempt at rape. Marshal will be' remem ¬ bered as the thing who insulted Mrs. At phin ' on the steel "bridge several m6ntbi ago. He was also imprisoned in Corvallis for indscsny committed near the Cloverdale school. About thre weeks ago h went to Lane county where he tried to commit rape on both a little girl and a woman, and it was for this he was arrested and promptly sent to the penitentiary. As he went by the name of John Brown, 4tis identity was not known until this noon, when Chief of P - lie L recoguiztd him as Sheriff Johnson took him to Salem.' Marshal is one of the lowest cars that ever walked a street and deserves a life sentence, as society will never be safe with such a fist at large. All kinds of fir works at Hodes & Hall's.

The argument in the appeal case of Far. mars'' Loan and Trust Company, et al, re spondents vs. the Oregon Pacific railroad Company, et at, appellants, began Tuesday morning at 9:30, a report of which proceed ings' from yesterday's Oregonian is as fol" lows:' . This argument occupied ths supreme court from 9:30 a. m. to 9:30 p. m. ' The court decided the counsel for respondent, Bonner and Hammond, should open and close the argument. Judge McFadden occupied the entire forenoon. He urged that all appel lant partiss were' interlopers, and that the defendant companies were defunct, having admitted their absence of interest when they answered to the bill of complaint of ths Farmers' Loan & Trust Company, and admitted its iasolyency and indebtedness of about $15,030,00i). - Ha further claimed that by failing to file objections to'the confirnra tion in the court below, it was precluded from raiting the question in tho appellate court. -..- Bronaugh aud Fentin opposed the confir mation on the grounds that the order on which the sale was mads was' a departure from the original decree. They held that the decree provided that the purchase price might be made in receiver's certificates, and the order under which the last sale was mad i) required payment in cash only. They alto urged that the amount' of the bid was inadequate and that newspaper" adver tising was a part of the policy of ths par chasers. It was asserted that Bonner and Hammond are inly catspaws in the hands of the Blair-Wharton faction of bondholders. Wallis Nash, representing himself, Wil liam Hoag and other creditors, and W. C. Watson, representing George S. Coe and others, argued in the same line as Bro naugh and Fen ton, relative to the departure from the original decree, and inadeq nancy of the price, and that the bondholders who had furnished the money for the construc tion of the road should hare another op portunity to bid. Judge Bryson began the closing argu ment in behalf of the confirmation, claim ing that the defendant companies, repre sented by Nash, had no pppealable interest; that the other appellants were noi parties to : the suit, and had navr intervened' and therefore had no right of appeal. Iu the; midst of his argument, the court adjourned until 9:30 to-morrow. Far boys and children's clothing, go to Nolan & Callahan's. Hair cutting 15 c:nt3 aud shaving' 10 cents at T. C. Case's.

A temperanber saloon is a business for which there has need' a strong demand in Corvallis for several years a place where the boys, and' even men, might congregate evenings for a' social gime of billiards, pool or cards, without being compelled, from the very nature of things,' to freqhent those haunts wherein liquors are sold, and where tha rowdies and toughs are went to congre." gate.' Such a placa, we are pleased to an-' nounce to our readers" is soon to'be opened, and by two of the best known and most ac comodating yonng men in town. Their names are Ed Zeis and G. M. Simpson and the Grin name will be Ziis & Simpson. Thay will occupy the Zeis buildins oppo. sit Miller's clothing store and expect to be open for business on or about July 1st. The building has been' recently renovated and repainted throughout and now presents a very' attractive appearance, bath inside and out - Inside will be found' a full and complete line of cigars, tobacco, and smo kers', sundries, and a:!so' all kinds af soft drinks, such as lemonade, soda water, etc: Pool, billiard and card tables will ' be pro vided, so that amusements at this resort will bs as diversified as are usually found in such places, even in the larger cities." It 14 the intention of the' proprietors to ran the business in first-class style. They ex pect to eater only to the best class of trade, and hoodiumism and disorderly conduct will not bs tolerated. Such a business as theso young men have in mind of con ducting will fill a long-felt want and the push and business sagacity which' these gentlemen possess' is a very good evidence that it will be a success both financially and otherwise. ... " ' Identity Discovered. -For sbme time past we have heard un complimentary remarks about a Times cor respondent writing from Monroe 'under the supposed nom de plum of "Big Foot." These comments have been provoked, not on account of the lies he tells, for liars are plenty, but on account of the apparent po'intlessness of his efforts, and aimlessness of hi criticisms. It was ' discovered dur ing the last rainy spell that he is sailing un der no false colors, but is entitled to the name he bears, having been known as Big Foot on th Siletz' reservation, where his relatives reside, fl probably escaped dur ing tbe Buford administration and has not been missed by the present agent. As he is the only correspondent from" Monroe, it is hopWd lieTwill not be molested. Many college students' are leaving this week for heme.
