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

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.

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

only two days after its arrival here. Mr.
Price came direct from Yaquina bay to Cor

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.

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

much good will result from his efforts. The

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.

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
