The first question asked by the new student upon his arrival in our city, after he has shaken out his fcat'iora.as it were, and gotten things to rights, is: "Where can a fellow find a good barber shop?" And invariably the answer is: "Why, go to Spencer's, of course. Any of the boys can show you." John Gault, son of Editor Gault, of the Hillsboro Independent, and a former student at the O. A.

Mr. Priest obtained a patent on his dis covery as easy as falling ofTn a log, and we learned on Tuesday that he expectt d to sell the right for the United State, within a few days, to a company or syn dicate for $20,000. Everybody who knows John Priest will be pleased to hear of his good luck, for he is a very worthy gentleman, and needs this wind fall jast now more thau at any other pe riod of his life. Yaquina Post. The aunual normal institute in session last veek, finished its labors Friduy evening with a literary program, fol lowed by a reception. The exercises consisted of a recitation by Misi Lillian Hamilton, a solo by Miss Mabel John son, and an address by Kev. K. J Thompson, aftar which refreshments consisting of ice cream and caks were served. On the previous evening Pr-s Campbell lectured on the subject of Psychology. Music was furnished by a quartette consisting of J." Fred Yatee, John Fulton, Roy Raber and H. R Clark. A recitation by G. L. Paul, ec titled "The Miser," was a feature of the evening worthy of especial meclicn from the fact that the selection waa written by his sister, Vim Carrie Paul, now residing iu Dover, N. II. The piece is stong iu its dramatic effect and evinces in its author a careful study of the char acter, besides literary genius of a supe rior order. RESULT OF C A RLESSNESS. W. T. Peet and W. H. Gratem take Aconite by Mistake. -Former a Corpse, the Latter 111. Awarded Highest Honors World's Fair, Gold Medal, Midwinter Fair. The contract for furnishing the college uniforms during the coming scholastic year was awarded last Saturday to Nolan, & Callahan. The cloth selected is of navy blue color, and Is manufactured by the Oregon City mills. There were three other bids received, and owing to the close bidding the committee was some time iu arriving at a conclusion as to which one was the best; price and quality both being considered. Messrs. Nolan & Callahan are to be congratulated upon their success. Last spring mention was made in these columns of a remarkable family of sheep, consisting of an ewe and two lambs that were owned by Geo. W. Smith, of this city. At shearing time, when the lambs were yearlings, one, a bnck, sheared 224 pounds of wool, and the other, 14 pounds. Monday, Mr. Smith disposed of the buck to Hayden brothers, of Alsea valley, at which time it weighed 247 pounds, which is considered a phenomenal weight for a sheep to attain when only a few months past its first birthday. The buck is a thoroughbred Cotswold and is con sidered to be one of the best lambs ever raised in the state. The purchasers are to be congratulated on makim; such a valuable addition to their flock. A. Hunt, who has been engaged in the grafting and culture of fruit in this vi cinity during the past two years, has dis covered a seedling a'pple that promises to become a valuable addition to the ap ple family. The tree was found this year growing by the wayside between Corval lis and Albany. Although it has never had any care, and is growing in the midst of a thicket of brush and rose briers, the fruit is large, highly-colored and of an excellent flavor. Mr. Hunt Intends to prune and cultivate the tree during the coming season, which will, of course, have a tendency to develop its many ex cellent qualities. The apple possesses a high color, and in shape, very much re sembles the Spitzenberg. It is a late fall variety and is yet unnamtd. - C. D. Thompson, late foreman of the college farm, leaves today for Lansing, Michigan, where he will enter college t r the purpose of taking a two years' course in agriculture. During Mr. Thompson's connection with the college he has shown an aptitude for the work and through his experience has gained a deal of valuable practical knowledge in agricuiture that will be helpful 10 him in prosecnting his studies along this line in the agricultural college of Mich igan. The college of Michigan is re garded as one of the best in the country, and its graduates are in demand as in structors in the branches there taught. When Mr. Thompson has finished there he will, doubtless, have little trouble in securing a professorship in one of the leading agricultural colleges of the country, should he desire to continue in this line of work. THAT JJTJATvAXTINS MATTgS. Concerning the recent scarlet fever case at the Occidental hotel, thure seems to be a di versity of opinion. A grout many thii'k Hint the child did not contract the disease in Corvallis, but brought it either from San Francisco or Newport, for it was taken sick only two days after its arrival here. Mr. Price came direct from Yaquina bay to Cor vhIH.s, and at Newport a chill of Cpt. Chatterton's was very ill with scarlet feve-. Mr. Schmidt says ho ha been unjustly criti cised iiy people wh wera unfamiliar with 1110 real i:tct. lilt jrrninlonil'l h i but a mild attack of scarlatina and had thoroughly recovered before the oth;r child arrived. The house and clothin had boon thorough ly disinfected and every precaution taken to prevent any spread of the disease. Whan the Price child was sick, tho part of thtj house it occupied was closely quarantined; No Aug was put out, it is true," said Mr. Schmidt, "but no one was allowed in that wing of the hotel." Since the child's death the furniture, carpet and bedding in the rooms occupied by Mrs. Price have been burned and the house fumigated throughout. Mr. Schmidt says he has done everything possible, and the fact that no further cases have occurred bears out his statements. FWTTBMNS COHKS9I3. Prof. J. B. Horner has been traveling over the vailey during the past six weeks in the interest of the college, and from the flatter ing press notices that both himself and the institution are receiving, it is safe to say that much good will result from his efforts. The two items below are fair samples of the many nice thing? that are being sail about tho collega by th pipers of the state. .Lebanon Express: trot. J. H. Horner, a member of the faculty of the Stato Agricul tural College, at Corvallis, was in the city Tuesday. Mr. Horner is a pleasant gentle man of much rctineinent and ability, and speaks very encouragingly of the state's fine school. In order that our readers, who have boys to educate, may know something of this great institution in our midst, we give a few particulars: There are- twenty-two in structors. Tuition is free, and no charge for any incidentals or extras. There were 261 enrolle.1 last year, with a graduating class of fifty-one.

Prof. Horner and wife, of Corvallis, were in town a short time Thurs day. The professor is a momier of l! e A dose of aconite, taken by mistake, in stead of blackberry brandy, came ner c aus ing tho loss of two lives Tuesday mornii g and as it is, one of the victims has died and tho other is not entirely out of danger: Early Tuesday morning, W. T. Pee', cashier of the First National Bank, cal'i d at Graham & Wells' drug store, complaie inar of diarrhosi and severs pains in hi stomich, and requested a drink of h'ack berry brandy and Jumaici ginarer. At the time of his visit to the store, W. II. Grab-inn, ihe prescription clrik, was the onlv person about the premises, and he was 1-usy 5wwpin out the store. On making: his want-" known, Graham poured out the gin ror in an ouncn graduate, and showing Mr. Peet where the b.ittl.- of brandy stood, dir ected him to help himself, as he had done on numerous previous occasion". Filling the grilimfe, Mr. Pet took a drink, and im meliat-Iy remarked to Graham that the mixture di In't w-ite ri-rht. Graham, to sat isfy himself that therh was nothing wron;, empti.d the srlass, when hp, too, noticed the pec iliar taste. Then, when all too late, tho label on the buttle was examined, and to tlvir horror thev discovered tint instead of blaekheTy brand v, they bad taken tine tura of aconite, fifteen di-opt of which is considered a fafnl do-e. The aconite was in a bottle that stood on a back shelf behind the prescription dr.-k and wa similar in size and shape to the or.e containing the brandy that usually stood on the same shelf, bul some distance from Uie aconite, on this occasion, howpver, the two bottles had accidentally been placed side by side and Mr. 1'cet, who was r-gt'-dul as an extremely careful person, foiled to discern the difference in their 0 n-tant-i, arid tho mistake he then made cost him hi life. On discover! ng'l-hnt thoy had been poi-on-el and rpalixing the necessity for immedia'e molical attendance, Graham did not lose his head, but, on the contrary, acted with remarkable coolness. After giving Mr. Peet an emetic, he ran to tho storo of bis b"othor and informed him of the aecident. Then be started for Dr. Farra who, fortu nately, he met cominr uptown and together they returned to th drug storo. By this time Graham was nearly exhausted, but was nt Kii'F'tring a much pain as Mr. Pout. More emetics wore administered to the vie-ti-ns, and though they acted quickly, both grew rapidly worse. Mr. Peet was conveyed to his home in a carriajro and everything possible done to allay his suffering and save his life, but all these efforts proved futil . Within two hours the drug had accomplish ed its fatal work. During the last hour the patient sutl'ered the most intense pain anil repeatedly begged his attendants to end his misery. In Graham's case the poion proved less active, which is probably due to the fact that he had just eaten a hearty breakfast, while Mr. Peet had ealen nothing since the pre vious evening, lie was able to walk home and has since been under the care of TV. C. U. Lee, who now has his patient well hIoi g on the roaa 10 recovery. Mr. Graham is an experienced dmggi.-t and h-ars the reputation of being a careful apothecary. jSo.blame for this most unfor tunate and sad affair can be attached to any one but the victims them selves. Walter Thomas Pent, was born at Marl boro, Stark county, Ohio, August 13, 1852. Lett an orphan at an early ajfe, he started out to make tie way in the world alone. Hating already learned the printer trad he followed this work for a number of years in t ie largest cities of the United Status and Great Britain, and being thorough iu this, ai in all other undertakings through life, he met with success.

Later, he returned to Tipt in, and married Miss Mattie Swartzlen dnr, Nov. 25th of the samejyear. Finding th-i climate of Nebraska too severe, he mov ;d with his family to Oregon, in August 18V.!, forming a partnership with Hovey & Humphrey in the banking business at Ku gano.

A meeting of m re loan usual interest to members of the Central Willamette Fruit Union washeldatthecourthou.se last Sat u day. It was railed tor the purpose of hearing the report of Prof. E. R. Lake, who was sent as n delegate to represent the fruitgrowers of this section at a meeting of the gri'wers of the stato which was held in Portland last month. .fr. Lake re ported that the opinion prevailed at the Portland meeting, that it would be best to pack the choicest prunes in 25-pound boxes, and the inferior grade in 50-pound sacks. This idea met the approbation of those pres ent, and will probably ba followed pretty generally by the grower in this vicinity. Another important matter considered, was that of storing thu entire crop of this vicinity at some central point, to be sold in a pool. Iu this w7, there would be no commission: ! to pay, as it would be the intention to sel the fruit here on hoard the cars. One of the principal advantages in this plan, i the fact that so large a quantity of fruit would at tract buyers, while holders of small lots, scattered about the country, would be at a disadvantage in getting their output inspect ed, which would ho necessary, before a sale could he effected. A meeting has been c li ed for Saturday, Octoborolh, at 2 o'clock, to further consider this matter, and arrange the drtaiU. The meeting is to be held at the i court house, and all growers of this section, I whether members of the Union or not, are j requested to ba present. Porsons unable to be present, but wishing to enter the pool, should write the secretary, F. P. Sheas green, stating the amount of fruit they ex pect to ship. Wanted, A lilorss at IVc.l the Tailors.
