creeping around the streets avoiding
everybody who bears any resemblance to
Poor Lo. Bert bad a little difficulty at
Newport with an Indian, whom he worst
ed, and the next day was forced to tackle
the same fellow and bis friend, but that
night took the train for Corvallis. He
was afraid the red men would not main;

Francico. Her husband is in the em
ploy of a large hardware firm in the Biy
City and expects to remain their perma

for the family to take up their abode in
that city. Both Mr. and Mrs. Pearse leave
a large circle of friends in Corvallis who
wish them well.
KBADT FOR WAR.
The annual conference of the M. E.
Church, south, convenes one week from
to-day at Dallas. The Corvallis church
will be represented at the meeting by
Rev. P. A. Moses. Rev. Moses has been
in charge of the work here for the past
three years and it is possible that the
conference will appoint him to some new
field of labor. During his residence here
he has worked faithfully in the cause of
Christianity, and has made many friends
who will regret to see him and his esti
mable family leave Corvallis.
Wilson Scott, of Philomath, last Satur
day purchased the Albany tannery at re
ceiver's sale, and will take charge of the
business at once. Speaking of the trans
action the . Albany Herald says: "The
property was bid in by Wilson Scott, of
the firm of Felger & Scott, tannerymen
ef Philomath. The price was f 1,250. Mr,
Scott has sold his interest in the Philo
math tannery to Mr. Felger, and will re
move to Albany. Mr. John T. Shea will
be associated with bim and together they
will rebuild and improve the Albany tan
nery plant and operate on a much larger
basis. Both are experienced tannery
men. There is a good field for a tannery
here, and the enterprise will certainly
prove a success."
Henry Stewart had a miraculous es
cape from instant death while enroute
from Chitwood on the excursion train
last Sunday evening. He had been over
on the Yaquina river' catching crawfish
and was accompanied by bis wife. Be
ing fatigued frdm the day's sport, he fell
asleep and. rested in the arms of Morpeus
until Philomath was passed, when his
wife awakened him in order to collect
the fish baskets and other luggage. PassJ
ing through the train in a sort of stupor
he lost his balance when on the platform
of the baggage car, and fell to the
ground. At the time, the train was run
ning at 30 miles an hour rate and every
one on board expected to find that the
accident bad resulted fatally. .He was
picked up in an uuconcious condition,
but was still breathing, and aside from a
severe scalp wound, did not appear to be
Republicans of Benton are getting
ready to preach McKinleyism and return
ing prosperity. They understand that
strength comes from organization and on
Friday night they met to organise a Ben
ton county McKinley club. - About 100
had signed the call and there was a large
attendance of prominent citizens. E. R.
Lake was selected as temporary chairman
and J. Fred Yates as temporary secretary,
A committee consisting of B. W. Johnson
L. G. Altman and Barnhart, were
appointed on permanent organization
While they were out deliberating, Judge
Kelsay discussed briefly the general pur
poses and principles of the republican
party.
The committee reporting, the consti
tution and by-laws recommended by
them were adopted. The constitution
provides that all who believe in the elec
tion of McKinley and will vote for him
are eligible to membership. It was not
the intention to make it a strictly parti
zin organization, but to organize 011 wide
lines, so as to give democrats, who are
; holding their tariff and other views in
temporary abeyance, an opportunity to
unite with republicans for sound money
and stable government.
The permanent officers of ' the club
elected, were: E. R. Lake, president;
Emory Allen, "vice-president; J. Fred
Yates," secretary; Willard S. Linville,
treasurer. There was only one contest in
the election of officers, there being good
natured rivalry for president. . Mr. Lake
and George Waggoner were both placed
in nomination, the first ballot resulted in
no election, Mr. Lake receiving but one
vote more than Mr. Waggoner. The lat-
I ter then withdrew and moved that Mr,
Lake be elected unanimously, and the
motion carried.
Hon. J. B. Irvine was called for and
was introduced as the "father of the
Times." - He gave a rousing and sensible
extemporaneous address and aroused the
enthusiasm of his hearers. The club
then. adjourned to meet the first Friday
in September.
It is the intentiou of the club to carry
on a brisk campaign, and by literature
and speakers awaken the enthusiasm of
Benton county in behalf ot a return to
that governmental management, which
for thirty years secured to . the people of
the United States unparalleled prosperity.
Mr. Lake, the president of the club, was
elected last June as joint-representative
of Benton and ' Lincoln counties by a
handsome majority over a fusion candi
date. He is popular and a very active,
energetic worker. He is a practical fat
mer and a thorough business man, and he
will see that the McKinley end of the
campaign in Benton county does not lag.
The other officers are representative and
responsible citizens, who will serve the
club well. The burden of the work will
of course devolve largely upon the secre
tary, Mr. Yates, whose capabilities have
already been attested in similar work. ;
Among the speakers the club expects
to induce to address Benton county voters
are, Senator Mitchell, Congressman Ellis,
Congressman Hermann, Gen. George H.

A number of Corvallis young ladies
gave a ilouemian pienic one day last
week, procuring a boat they rowed down
the river about two and a half miles be
low town, and discovering' a secluded
nook, which they believed to be - beyond
the reach of bold male men, proceeded
to enjoy themselves in true Bohemian
fashiou. A newspaper reporter on pleas
ure bent, also rowed down the river and
in an evil moment bis attention was at
tracted by the light from acampfire.
Hoping to secure an item the luckless
fellow landed and quietly made his way
toward the light. Suddenly emerging
from the willow thicket bis gaze was riv
eted upon a somewhat startling living
picture. A few feet in front of him blaz
ed a camp-fire," while seated and reclin
ing atout it were a number ot Corvallis'
most dignified young ladies, daintily puff
ing balm-root smoke through their ruby
lips. Several pairs of hose hanging
about on the bushes told their own story.
The "scribbler" was unable to repress an
ejaculation of sorrowful surprise. Con
sequently was discovered and being out-
numbered seven to one, wnen threatened
with immediate drowning, was forced to
swear by the most bloodcurdling oaths
to never tell. After having given him a
portion of their sumptious lunch, the
young ladies restored , tneir prisoner
to liberty, they themselves returning to

CASTORIA
Sunday the outing season at Newport wag
at its height. Two hundred and fifty valley
folk went over on the excursion for a day's
outing on the beach, and with the hundreds
of pleasure seekers already at the coast, the
crowd was swelled until the. hotels and ret'
tau rants were taxed to their utmost capacity,
At the other resorts complaints are heard
because of the lack of excitement and at
tractions, but at Yaquina everyone seems
satisfied. Most summerors go to the coast
for rest, and soon fall into a state of lethargy
from which they are not anxious to be arous
ed. During the past week the teachers' in
stituto furnished four days' entertainment,
and with the soldiers, the deep-sea fishing
and the surf bathing, everyone's sp&ra time
is pleasantly employed.
1 he band nt Newport this year is an ex
eel lent one, composed of members of the
Portland military band. Tbcir orchestra is
especially good, and dances are given every
Wednesday and Saturday nights, which are
well attended. The one given last Saturday
night brought forth many handsome gowns
adorning pretty women. As usual, the male
element was sadly lacking and at a premium.
The tug "Favorite" takes parties out over
the bar for a ride or for fishing almost every
day, and on Sundays makes regular excur
sions down the coast, and those trips are at
ways successful as 'pleasure journeys. Oc
casionally some few on board succumb to the
swinging motion or the boat, but tbe sea is
usually so smooth that sea sickness is un-
thought of.
The 2nd Regt. Oregon National Guards,
came out from Newport Monday. Four
companies were represented, but only about
sixty men "took in" the two-weeks encamp
ment. However, there were enough of tbe
brass buttoned boys to splendidly illustrate
tho almost skillful deficiency of the 2nd Regt.
in the art of soldiering. The men carried
their guns with studied carelessness and each
had his. individual preference as to the proper
angle of tho gun at "right shoulder arms."
In battalion drill the independent and origi
nal step and attitude of each individual mem
ber ware marvels to the onlookers. How sixty
men, in such close proximity to each other.
could each execute maneuvers so totally dif
ferent from the actions of the other fifty nine
is a mystery yet unsolved.- A lot of people
who believe in the national guard from priu
cipla, do not believe in wasting money on a
worse than idle pretense at soldiering. Col
Yoran can not feel very proud of his men,
He should ask the governor to muster out
tbe whole lot of them.
Probably the principal incident of the en
campment was the arrest and confinement of
Willie Campbell, editor of Linn county's
populist paper, the Albany Imprint. A pop
ulist figuring as a militiaman is in itself a
novelty, but the defiance of rules, and laws is
very consistent with the advocacy of general
populistic doctrine. . V
' The populistic editor is ambitious, to shine
socially, and is equally unwilling Xo part
with his rather scanty ducats. In trying to
maintain the parity of these two failings, he
mado himself amenable to military disci
pline. It was the night ofa dance, and Wil
lie was detailed for guard duty. Tho oppor
tunity to shine, however, before the number
less summer girls was a strong temptation.
He persuaded a friend to dress in his uniform
and take bis place that nigbt and ho hurried
to the hall. The managers of the dance
viewed his appearance at tbe festivities with
: hostile emotions, for he had generally been
successful in evading the doorkeeper upon
such occasions and they felt under no obliga
tions to assist him toward swelldom, gratis
Tbey scented revenge. Campbell bad left
his uniform with his substitute and appeared
at the ball in citizen's dress. This was a vio
lation of military- rules. The matter was
reported lo a high military dignitary, and he
cruelly ordered Willie's arrest. A detail of
big rough men was appointed to bring him
to camp that night, and he was found at a
boarding house in com pany with a oouplo of
Portland ladies. ' Campbell was rather in
clined to resist the official invitation, but wag
forcibly persuaded to accompany the detail.
Next day he was fined $10 for appearing in
citizens clothe, and the matter of bis cvad-
ing guard duty coming to light, he was sen
tenced to 24 hours in the guard house for
neglect of duty. Campbell's paper hereaf
ter will probably add military bugs to its
choice collection of political insects to be
fought by' the populistic quill.
Young ladies unfamiliar with surf bathing
are advised to consult . some experienced
friend concerning their costume before sub
mitting themselves publicly to the caresses
of old Neptune. The other day at Newport
a handsome and modest young lady stepped
down from the bathing house to try her hand
for the first time at braving tho breakers.
She was very tastily attired in a white bath
ing habit. It went boyond the usual bathing
suit in modest length. ' "There," said an
austere old lady to her daughter, "if women
folks would observe the rules of decency and
bathe in some such proper costume as that,
I would have no serious objections to the ex
ercise." The young lady tripped into the
water and an unusually close breaker struck
her. There was a shriek and sundry excla
mations. Women hurried to the fair bather
with shawls, and the austere old lady hurried
her daughter to tbe hotel, for the admired
bathing suit was built of flimsy material and
being wet portrayed all too minutely the hu
man form divine.

Churning Done in Ons Minute.
A Good Wind Mill Make it Your-
- self!
I bare tried the Lightning- Churn, you recently de
scribed in yeur paper, aud it is certainly a wonder.
I can churn in leas than one minute, and the butter
is elegant, and you get considerable more butter than
when you use a common churn. I took the agency
for the churn her and every butter maker that sees
it buys one. . I bave sola three dozen and (bey give
tbe best of satisfaction; I know I can sell 100 in this
township, as they churn so quickly, make so much
more eu'ter than the -common churn and are so
cheap. . Some one in every township c&a make two
or three hundred dollars .selling theae cburna. By
addressing J. F. Casey ft Co St Louis, you can get
circulars and full information so you can make big
money right at home: I bave made $80 dollars in
tbe past two week and I never sold anything before
in my life. .. A Farmbs.
I made one of tbe People's wind mills Which I saw
recommended in your paper recently, it only cost me
S9.40 and is a splendid mill, my well is deep but it
pumps it all right and with but very little wind; the
neighbors all like it, and as I am a kind ef carpenter,
I have agreed to put up nine milla already, on which
I can make a nice profit, and there are many others
for whom I can put np mills this fall. Idon't see why
every farmer should not bave a wind mill, when tbey
ran make it themselves for less than t!0, any on can
get diagrams and complete directions for making the
wind mill by sending 18 two-cent stamp to pay post
age, etc., to E. D. Wi'soa & Co., Allegheny, Pa., and
there can be dozens of them put up In any locality
by any on that has the energy to do hV. A Fauhw

The New Hook Spoon Free to All
I read in tbe Christian Standard that Miss A. M.
Fritz. 8t;tiou A., St. Lnute, Mo., would give an ele-
! gaut plated hook spoon to anyone seuding her ten
1 2-cent stamps. 1 sent for one and found it so useful
! that I showed it to my friends, and made 813.00 in ;
j two hours, taking orders fcr tbe spoon. The hook
' spoon is a household necessity. It cannot slip into :
the dish or cookiiiff vessel, bcinir held in t ie place '
. 1 y a hook on the baclcl The spoon u something that '
: housekeepers bave needed ever since spoons were
first invented. Anyone can get a samnle spoon by
1 sending ten 2-cent vtampe to Miss Fntz. This is a 1
i splendid way to make money around home.

I saw in your paper astatement that Zulu Vulter
would restore any head of hair to natural color in
three weeks. A was very gray 1 sent tor a sam
ple package, and In less than three week my hair
was perfectly restored to natural color. My wife's
hair was a light red, and by using Zulu Vnller, ber
hair is now a beautiful auburn. Anyone can get a
sample package of Zulu Valid by sending 11 two-cent
stamps to Wilson ft Co., New Concord, Ohio, and if
it does not restore the hair to natural color in three
weeks they will return your stamps; it not enly re
stores the hair to natural color, but will stop the hair
falling out immediately and Is one of the best hair
tonics made, and yon take no risk, and if it does not
satisfy you perfectly they will return your stamps.

Will some of jour readers give me a good recipe
for making cold starch? I am selling self-heating flat
iron and iron a little at everr bouse and have to use
some starch every place and want to know how to
make good cold starch. My husband was in debt and
I being'anxious to help him thought I would sell self-
beating flat irons, and I am doing splendidly. A cent's
worth of fuel will heat the iron for three hour, so
you have A perfectly even heat. You can iron in
half the time and no danger of scorching the clothes
as with the old iron, and you can get the moat beauti
ful gloss. I sell at nearly every house, as tbe iron
saves so much fuel everybody wants one. . I make
91.50 on each iron and have not sold less than ten any
day I worked. My brother is doing well and I think
anyone can make iotsof money anyhore selling irons
J. F. Casey A Co., St. Loom, Mo., will start anyone in
the business, as they did me if yon will address them
' Ms A. Russell.
Circulars and other
forms of advertising
are sometimes more ef
fective by having the
appearance of being
typewritten. The Ga

typewritten work as
readily as other jobs,
and if necessary to
complete the delusion
we can spell incorree
