AND U'WAltDS
IO uwuLnnu FOR SUITS TO
ORDER AT CECIL THI TAILOR'S,
The H..& L band boys promise
delightful music tonight. The
overtures for the concert are really
high grade selections. Baud
music lor dancing is a novelty in
Corvallis aud those who have
heard the boys practice, say that
the innovation will make a hit.
A polygamist in Salt Lake City
has two wives, one old and the
other young. The latter pulled
out his gray hairs so that he
wouldn't appear old, and the first
wile pulled out his dark hairs so
that he wouldn't look young.
Now he is as bald as -a pump
kin. Seth Hurlburt has made an
uncommon discovery of pre-his-toric
remains, while excavating
on his ranch a few miles south of
Corvallis. The specimens seen,
so far, are evidently bones or
shells of giant crustaceans, but
are so far decayed as to destroy
their positive classification.
O Dicers of the Salvation army
called to explain dial. I hey took
no steps to have iho.se young men
arrested, as stated in last week'.
Gazkttk. They told the boys
they would make a complaint in

ther steps. It seems to have been
a case of bluff.
The State Teachers' Associa
tion, which meets in Salem next

Hon. E. R. Lake returned
Saturday from a week's absence
in Portland. In recognition of
his untiring efforts looking to
ward securing some favorable
legislation in the interests of
better highways, Mr. Lake was
chosen chairman of the Good
Roads convention, which held a
three days' session in Portland
last week. Several hundred del
egates from various portions of

the meeting will doubtless give
an impetus to the good roads
movement all over Oregon.
W. - E. Yates returned home
Sunday from Roseburg, where he

conviction in one,- but in the
other the jury returned a verdict
of not guilty. As a prosecu
tor, Mr. Yates is gaining an en
viable reputation. Thus far
dnring his career as district at

cases and has secured a convic
tion in six of them.

DOUBTLESS' DROWNED.
The Nigrhtwatchman of the
Steamer Gypsy Disappears,
Wm. Rockett, the nightwatch
man of the little steamboat Gyp
sy, plying between upper- Wil
lamette points, was on duty Satur
day night, when the boat was ly
ins at her wharf in this city. He
was seen early Sunday morning,
but siuce then no trace can be
found of him. It is thought that
he found death in the Willamette,
Rockett had been up town dur
ing the greater part Of Saturday
night, visiting the saloons, but not
drinking a great deal.- lie was 111
company with a deck hand of the
Gvusy at one a loon and the two
vere quarreling over some money
matters. About two o'clock bun
dav iiiorniiiir. Officer Skipton met
him a ml Rockett said he was go
ing to 1 he boat and cook a chick
en. This was the last time he was
seen. -i
It is uenerallv thought thai he
walked oil' the O. li. & N. dock
which is tot n up and being repair
ed. Some suspect foul play, but
the members of the boat's crew
scout the the idea, and think he
accident ly stepped into the river.
-Between 2 and 3 o'clock in the
morning a party on the other
side of the river heard someone
shouting, but nothing was thought
of the incident at the time. It
was doubtless the crys of Rock
ett that were heard 'us he fell in
to the water. Everything possi
ble has been done to recover the
bodyi but so far those having the
task in hand have been uusuc
cessful.
Death ef Mrs. E. Holgate.
Mrs, E- Holgate, wife 6f Judge
Holgate, died Wednesday morn
ing at her home in this city after
a brief illness. She had been
in"- poor health for several
months, but had uot been dan
gerously ilUuntil within the past
week, when lier daughter Helen,
who had bcen.attending college
in Portland, wassent for. ? Some
time ago Mrs. -Holgate sustained
a serious - fall the - shock from
which doubtless hastened her de
mise. Though not of a robust
constitution, she was possessed
of an indomitable will, which
she strongly exercised to the last,
insisting that she was not seri
ously afflicted and would soon be
around as usual. She, however,
overestimated her strength and
early Wednesday morning, sur
rounded by members of her fam-
ilyj she passed peacefully away.
Anna Violet Holgate was born
in Sullivan county, Missouri,
May iQth. I84.0. She was the
1 2 til child of John and Mary
Watt, a prominent pioneer fam
ily, who crossed the plains in
I847 and located in Yamhill
county. Alno Watt, one of her
brothers, is an official of the O.
R. & N. Co., and Joseph Watt,
another brother, -who died a few
years ago, was" also well, known
throughout the state, v She was
a sister of Mrs. B. H. Bowman;
Mrs. J. A. Morton and Mrs. Rox-
anna White, J of Portland, and
Mrs. Werner Breyman, of Sa
lem, all of whom are now in
the city and will remain until
after the , funeral.
Miss Watt spent her childhood
in Yamhill county, but previous
to her marriage, was employed as
a teacher in the public schools of
this city. It was while thus en
gaged thai she became acquaint
ed with Mr. E. Holgate, whom
she married August 30th, 1860,
since which time they have re-j
sided continuously in this city.
Mrs. Holgate was the mother of
six children, all of whom sur
vive her. The eldest, Willard
W. Holgate, now resides in Ba
ker City, Arthur E. and Edward
T. live in Portland, and the oth
er three children, H. L, Helen
and Don, reside at home.
Today, within that gnef-stnek-
en home, the inky draperies of
sorrow displace the bright color
ings of Christmas tide, aud sobs
and lamentations rise instead of
jflad carols and joyous greeting.-..
How fitting that the closing scene
111 a Christian lite snouia conic
upon the day which . marks the
birth of Him, who died that ever
lasting life might come to those
who had faith in Him. She was
a loving, devoted wife, a tender,
affectionate mother, a genfrous,
changeless friend, a true, gentle
woman. And when the voice that
called her hence shall summon
those from whom it gave her grief
to part, may they join her in the
world of rest and peace "Where
no vtornis beat on the glittering
strands, and the years of eternity
roll."

Earl's Pet
Earl, the litlle son of J. H. Har
ris, has a pet of which he is just
ly proud. Its name is Romeo and
came all the way from Texas, ar
riving Wednesday. ,
It is a dog. Dogs are common
enough, but this kind of a dog
las never been seen in Corval
is before. It looks more like a
bluish gray squirrel, and, in fact,
is more of a -squirrel than a dog.
It is a prairie dog and a cuter,
prettier, gentler pet no bov could
desire.
The jlittle animal is loving and
affectionate and Earl ha onlv to

. Valuable Invention.
Jas. Flett has invented a paper
perforating machine that seems to
be a great success. The first ma-
cliine.lias been completed and Mr.
iieC is now busy remedvins
slight defects.
A satisfactory -perforater is one
of the demands of the iirintinsr
business thai inventors hare not
ye; met, and there will be a big
field lor the sale of Mr. Flett's
machine should the invention
p.ove as successful as appearances
ndicate it will be.
The principle of this perforater
is entirely new.. , It will-perforate
between .30. and 40 thicknesses.
where a present machine can onlv
do 3 and 4 sheets at a time.
