an oak tree that was cut down on the
grounds where Philomath Odd ' Fellows

Corvallis has an up-to-date bicycle re
pair shop. People with wheels that rat
tle or that have broken parts, can have
them put .in first class condition, speedily
and cheaply." T. W. Dillcy, the proprie
tor, is a first-class workman aud ha. all
necessary tools aud material. His work
shop, next door to Graham & Wortham's
drug store, is the Mecca of wheelmen,
who take care of their machines.
1 Prof- Denman has just received a baud
some flag that lie ' will present to the
school winning the spelling contest at
the aunual institute, which begins at Phi
lomath, Juue 3rd. The contest will be
held on Friday, the last day, and doubt
less a number of schools will enter.
It was Supt. Denman's intention to have
the institute open May 26th,. but owing
to Pres. Chapman's inability to be pres
ent at that time, the- institute hois been
postponed one week.'
M. H. Kriebel and his bicycle had a
fight on the road from Albany, Monday
night. The wheel's physical organism
was somewhat disorganized, while its
owner's temper Wassadly lacerated. One
of the ten commandments was also splin
tered and scattered over the road.' Mr.
Kriebel concluded, that he was. , tired of
riding, anyway, and walked five miles,
leading his bicycle home. This is one of
the pleasures of 'cycling that wheel
agents do not advertise.
There passed through Albany by ex
press to-day a bull calf of one of the fa
mous belted stock. It was shipped from
H. B. Richards. Easton, Pa., to H. F.
Fischer, one of Corvallis' wealthiest citi
zens. The value of the calf was $1,000
and the express charges were $55. On
the right ear was the registered tag No.
323. ' Instructions on the canvassed crate
showed the solicitude and care nec
essary to take a calf 3,000 miles. The
excellent condition of this $1,000 bull
calf indicated that the instruction? had
been carefully carried out by the express
messengers. A $1,000 bull calf is pretty
good these times; but the belted Stock
comes high, and the consignee is fully
able to foot the bill. Albany Democrat.
Next Saturday is to be local field day
at the O. A. C , aud as the weather will
certainly be ideal for such an event,
there is no reasonable excuse why the
boys should not have a large and appre
ciative crowd. They most assuredly de
serve the assistance of both the students
and citizens, not only in the matter of
encouragement by their presence, but al
so by aiding them with respectable gate
receipts, for,- strange . as it may seem,
with the exception of balloons, all sue
cesstul institutions must nave a more
solid foundation than pueumatic pillars,
and as the boys have not been troubled
in the past with a surplus of funds, and
what little they have is being rapidly ex
pended in preparing for the intercollegi
ate games early in June, it is to be hoped
that all who are in sympathy with the
college and its athletes will grace the
campus with their presence and like
wise make the treasurer's heart happy,
Next Saturday will be what is technically
termed a "try-out," as it will be the
means by which the candidates for the
big games will be elected. It may be
said that the prospects, for the champion
ship were never so rosy as they are right
now, for in addition to our representatives
being gems of the first water, they are
bonafide students .and, what is more,
they stand above the average in their
studies, so in June, lose or win, no meth
ods will be resorted to which are not
J purely and entirely legitimate.
SPORTS AND AMUSEMENTS.
Local Athletes in the Field.
Baseball Notes,
Tomorrow afternoon the V'Hearties"
play the . newly organized - Philomath
baseball team1, at Philomath. Owing to
the field day sports and other attractions
here, it is not likely that many "rooters"
will accompany the' Corvallis nine. A
return game will be played here later.
- The Multnomah athletic club's baseball
team wants to meet the Corvallis players.
The boys have not yet decided what they
will answer. They would like to get
such a game played here, for it would
draw a big crowd, but Corvallis has no

proficiency even more than the capabili
ties of the companies.
Tomorrow is the O' A. C. local field
day, and in the afternoon the boys will
show what weeks of Athletic training
have developed. . The races begin at 2
p. m., and events will follow each other
in quick succession. Doubtless a large
crowd will gather to watch the ' athletic
exercises of the day.
A strong interest in horse-speeding has
been aroused here that will doubtless lead
to the organization of a spee'd associa
tion. The race track is how the center
of attraction for Beuten county horse
men and the scene of some lively spurts.
Such things tend to make life more than
mere existence and Corvallis' is in need
of considerable stirriug'up in this direc
tion.' ' ' ''" " ' ; ' s ;.
The gentlemen leading this movement
are not interested in it as any sort of a
gambling enterprise. . They arc actuated
by true love ot -genuine sport and are the
solid men of the county.
Benton county has several good horses.
Rube Kiger .has some speedy goers.
John Simpson, Ed and Joe Bryan, Robt,
Huston, Thos. Whitehorn and others
own steppers. With ther. present "inter
est, it is likely that some very " fast ani
mata will be developed.
John King, who trained the Stanford
athletic team this year, 'has' returned to
Portland. Regarding Brady Burnett,
the -Oregonian quotes him as saying:
"Morgan ' 'and Burnett - distinguished
themselves. Brady Burnett would have
won the mile run, had he ruu according
to his own judgment. ' He was a very
close second in the half mile." .
Holes in Her Hose.
At the city council Monday evening,
the question of purchasing new hose for
the fire department, was discussed. The
city has a rather scanty supply of good
hose and "Young America" boys insist
upon enough to fight fire with. Samuels,
Rose and Smith were appointed a com
mittee to investigate and report upon the
advisability of purchasing 500 feet new
hosi.
Two matters came up, concerning the
hotel Corvallis property. Philip Phile
petitioned the council to allow him to
cover the south side of the hotel with
rustic". No action was taken. The city
some time ago, bid in three lots 7, 8 and
9 en part of which the hotel stands, at a
sale for collection of street assessment
Monday night the council instructed Po
lice Judge Porter, to release the property
from the lien, upon payment ot $206.98.
A petition from J. C. Mayo and others,
asking that an electric light be placed at
the foot of Monroe street (O. C. & E.
steamer landing) was filed. E. G. Al-
phin filed an application to be appointed
nightwatchman.
TAQUINA HARBOR IMPROVEMENT.
The Oregon delegation is impressing
upon tne engineering department me
necessity of continuing the improvement
at Yaquina . bay. - The . engineers, how
ever, are seemingly opposed td the idea.
Congress has authorized, though it has;
not directed, the department to let a con
tract for the completion of the work at
a cost not exceeding one million dollars.
The entire Oregon delegation is besieg
ing the department to let the contract
Congressman Tongue has been - partic
ularly active iu this matter, and says:. "I
can scarcely see what right the engineer
ing department has to refuse to carry Out
the legislrtion adopted by congress and
signed by the president." The comple
tion of the O. C. & E. R. R. across the
state, will depend upon the further iin
provemcnt of the harbor at Yaquina.
O. R. & N. Co. steamer Ruth leaves
Corvallis for Portland Mondays, Wednes
days and Fridays at 6 a. ra., arriving in
Portland.at 5 p. ni. The O. R. & N. is
the short line to the Kootsnna mining
district and to all points east. " The only

A Touch of High Life. -
A famous Frenchman was once ap
pointed public scavenger by .his enemies,
who wished to humiliate him. He ac
cepted the position, saying: "The office
may not reflect honor upon me, but I
can reflect honor upon the .office.". He
was a philosopher. Horses, however, are.
not expected to philosophize, and when
two Corvallis equines, whose vitality had j
been run down to the thinness of a dream
cut in: two, revolted against their em
ployment in hauling swill barrels, for
their human lords, one could hardly feel
hard at them. : - v
One witness said they ran away; an
other declared that "they 'irattled down
the street" The latter better understood
the niceities of the English language,
A motion similar to that of the United
States senate in enacting, needed laws,
could scarcely be' called xunning, while
two bundles of loose boues, propellecfby
an imitation of life, and drawing-the re
mains of Noah's ark mounted on whsels,
would naturally rattle.
The street for twoblookswasspriukled
with iwill. A barrel was left at the cor
oner near Prof. Horner's residence. The
Profess jr is one of those who-believe that
cleanliness is next to Godliness, and had
not ordered any swill, nor were Jm
neighbors in sore need of the barrel ;SfT
contents. The ucrse--, however, did not'
consider the fitness of things, in ridding
themselves of their hated load.
Their taste of freedom was brief. Thej;.
fell and the cart fell over the 111. The l
poor equine wrecks were led home to
dream of Mazeppa and dine'oit thistles'. ''?
So ended- an exciting episode in the Ci
reer'of "Andre .-j- Eutrick's swill team.. .
