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

and report what, if any, changes 'ars neces
sary, consists of Superintendent ' Irwin,. W.
E. Yates and T. W. Davenport.' Thsy will

culated a petition for funds, with a visw to
using same in paying for improvements to
the wagon road leading to Crystal Lake
cemetery. So, Mr. Eglin says, this was
the first time he ever "went begging," still,
he saeceeded with the task most admirably,
having sssnred upwards of $75. 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. "

GOT JOTJR YEARS.'
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.

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.

A HEW RESORT.'
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. Of course, they regret be
ing compelled to sever many pleasant
ties, but the principal regret the' boy en
tertain is that they will no longer be able
to shav with Spencer:
