They have prapared a program of especial interest for the occasion and are making extensive preparations for a large attendance. Members of the G. A. R. relief corps and Sons of Veterans are requested to meet promptly at 10:30 Sunday morning in their hall to march to the Presbyterian church where memorial service will be held, Dr. Thompson preaching the ser mon. Brady Burnett and Charles Chandler arrived in Corvallis Tuesday from Stan ford. After a few days' visiting here, the latter will return to his home in Eaker City. Both boys are looking plendid and were evidently not starved at Palo Alto. A letter from 'Gene Simpson, received this week, states that he is in San Fran Cisco, but is as yet a gentleman of lei sure. Bert VanCleve, he found, was' as sistant stage director at the Auditorium theatre and a leading member of the cast. R. S.

There will be an interesting service in the old Methodist church on Sunday ev ening, M?.y 30. As it will be the last Sunday service, it will be in the form of a farewell meeting. A number of brief addresses will be made by members of the church. All are cordially invited to attend this service. Last Friday there was a sham battle between Companies F and G, in which F. conquered the defender of the hill. Major Jackson, U. S. A., witnessed the contest.

Thursday the Columbia Opera Company arrived and Landlord Schmidt had to do some tall scheming to get them all located. The grange concluded it labors last night but the Benton county Sunday ' school convention which com menced yesterday, will continue its ses sions until Sunday. Jack Love, a resident of Linn county, met with a painful accident Wednesday, from the effects of which he will be con fined to his bed for several weeks. He was engaged in the construction of a barn on the Caleb Davis place, when a large fir pole slipped endwise, breaking both bonci of tue right foreleg. Love was immediately driven to town, when the fracture was reduced by Dr. Farra. A sleepy proof-reader is responsible for some queer errors in the last issue of this paper. A letter describing the northern part of the county was headed. "The Southern Section." The same ter ritory was mentioned as being "conta gious" to Albany. As Albany is "catch ing" most of that section's trade, per haps the word used was really as pertinent as "contiguous" would have been. "Small pox?" asked Geo. Bowers the barber, of a college youth who entered his shop with his hair off in spots Mon day. "Worse than small pox" answered the youth, and the other customers fled. George locked himself in a backroom until he found out that fellow students caused the lad's mishap, having shaved portiens of his head slick and clean. George finished the operation. The O. A.

The annual Benton county teachers institute will convene next Wednesday in the commodious brick college build ing at Philomath' Superintendent Den- man has gone to a deat of pains in arranging the program and to consider able expense in procuring prominent educators of the sUte to assist him in the work. Special arrangements have been made for the entertainment 'of visiting teachers who will be given the very low rate of 75 and 80 cents per day for board and lodging. Eugene wanted Trine for starter and a Multnomah. Club man for- referee. This would have made things pleasant all around for Eugene, as the Multnomahs wish the Dudes to win. their team hav ing a date with Eugene after the Salem ' contest. : It would have been last year's football fiasco repeated. However, the top of the Willamette" boys didn't make their point. H. E. Judge was chosen' referee and Roy Raber, of Cor vallis, . starter. Brady Burnett, will j i-.i-.- t. -.- : a c The opera house was crowded with people last Tuesday evening when the graduating exercises of the Corvallis pub lic schools occurred. The program throughout was excellent and some of the essays were remarkably clever. The teachers have a right to feel proud of their work as represented by the gradua ting class. There were 15 graduates, as follows: Letta Otterstedt, Clarence Barnhart, Ethel wyn Hillman, May Bur lingame, Lawrence Hanna, Lulu Spang ler, Clara Blakeslee, Nettie McCullough, Nellie Whiteker, Mildred Johnson, Detta Sargent, Nora Sargent, Geo.

Miss Turney has been teaching several years in Corvallis and her departure is greatly deplored by the patrons of the school,- for she has ever given the greatest satisfaction. Miss Es ther Simmons and Miss Mollie Bergin were elected to fill the places of the re tiring teachers. A tired stomach is very much like a sprained ankle. .If you suffer from any of the symptoms of dyspepsia, your stomach is tired. It needs a crutch. We must relieve it of all work for a time or until it is restored to its natural strength. To do this ' successfully, we must use a food which is already digest ed outside of the body, aud which will aid the digestion of other foods that may be taken with it. Such a product is the Shaker Digestive Cordial. The Shakers have utilized the diges tive principles present in plants for the manufacture of this article and its suc cess has been truly phenomenal. You ean try it for the nominal sum of 10 cents, as sample bottles are sold by all druggists at this price. Laxol is the best medicine for children. Doctors recommend it in place of Castor Oil. Nolan & Callahan's never-rip overalls at 50 cents can't be beaten. W. B. Johnson, Newark, O., says, "One Minute Cough Cure saved my enly child from dying by croup."

OA8TORXA. ash- ryy AMONG THE FARMERS. Traveling Correspondent Visits Hill Ranches Note and Comment. W. S. Tomlinson is a successful far mer living on the farm of old judge Guyles, whose daughter is Mr. Tomlin son's wife. Ye scribe was royally enter- , tained by these people at dinner and their home life was enjoyed for a couple of hours. One loves to linger in such a home, for love dwells there and comfort, and peace are its happy companions; Mrs. Bertha Ridders, a widow living a little below Mr. Tomlinso'ns, has a fine home and an excellent farm. She super intends her broad acres and devotes her life to the care of a helpless, invalid daughter, who has been bedfast for over two years. This patient mother, who is not young, cheerfully takes the burdens of life and hopes for rest in the "be yond" for her weary hands aud tired feel. Here is a case of motherly devo tion, love and care that causes one to feel that he is on holy ground. None but a mother cau know the anxious days of trial, care and sorrww that are spent in ministering to the wants of this invalid daughter. May He who paints the lilies of the field with the beautiful tints of color, who cares for the chirping spar row and watches over vll our ways, smooth the dying pillow of the daughter, and comfort the broken heart of the mother, is our hope. J. A. Carter is a successful merchant at Wells, whose hand we grasped and felt that we were holding the palm of an honest man. We also met one of the successful farmers near Wells, F. W Dodcle, who has a fine farm well stock ed and well tilled. Mr. Dodele is a man of affairs and reasons for himself. He is intelligent and active, influential and. popular, and deservedly sr. C. N, Stewart, commonly called "Cal," is full of enthusiasm and hope for the future and prosperity for all. . Very likely the writer has omitted some names which he would gladly re call. Such omissions, if any there- be, were not intended. We noticed, especially, the politeness and courtesy everywhere extended to us, the hopeful expressions for the future, the belief in a bountiful harvest and good prices and the entire confidence express ed ot the early return of prosperity. Not one acre of poor grain was seen on the trip of three days and the faces of the persons we met were all wreathed with smiles. Fruit trees are in fine condition and are generally loaded with fruit. With only a few exceptions, all orchards are looking better than ever before, due largely to the more intelligent care that they are receiving than heretofore. The region gone over is very well adopted to fruit growing and large quan tities will be harvested this autumn if present impressions are at all reliable, a The section traveled over is one of the be.t in Benton county and in a few years will be shipping fruit by train loads. - I was uniformly well Jreated and it has been a very great pleasure for me to re new old acquaintances and make so many new ones. STiXL'ON CHF wing. - I met, -near Wells. A. C. Williamson, whose farm shows the effects of skillful and intelligent effort' - In- Kings Valley, I saw the old pio neer, . Gabriel Long, several of the Chambers boys, A. C. Miller, Dick and James Dunn, Mr. Cady, Perry Eddy, Mr. Watson, James Plunkett, Sam King aud family and H. H. Glassford, all of whom expressed hope and courage for the fu ture. Many seemed anxious to have the tariff bill passed soon, that the Cuban in surgents be recognized by the United States and expressed sympathy for the struggling Greeks. I was told by a prominent citizen of Wells that the lane leading from that place west into the county road running from Corvallis to Monmouth, as well as a portion of the latter, was not worked-at all last year, and so far this year nothing has been done. Who is to .blame, the writer does not know, but one thing is evident these places have been impassi ble during the past winter. Many teams were stalled, rigs and harness broken, and the air for miles so impregnated with the sulphurous fumes resulting from the profanity of the luckless wights who were compelled to travel over these places, that vegetation looks sickly, the only place so affected in the entire north half of the county. I stopped over night with T. C. Baker, who is jolly and full of energy and the owner of a 1300-acre stock ranch. In Blodgett valley I was entertained by W. A. Gellatly and wife. Will owns a stock and grain ranch of about 1300 acres and leases another large farm. He has 600 acres in grain, which is all looking well and his sheep and cattle are in fine con dition. Everything on the ranch goes on like clock work. Also saw Isaac Norton and sons. Ned Simmons and the Nortons were making road. Passed Underbill's and Bob Mc Farland's places, but both were on the back -part of their ranches, bnilding fence. At Summit saw Mattoon and Squire Godman, of Nashville, Lincoln county. Stopped with Mr. Christian, on the old Flickenger place, for lunch. His daughter exhibited to us some beautiful crayon work, tiie achievement of her own deft and skillful hands. This is an ideakplace for Uavellen to stop. John Schwendth has a fine little farm near Blodgett station. Fred Johnson says his fruit was injured by the frost. The roads we traveled in this section were very rough, not having been work ed until the past week. The fences are in better shape than the writer has ever seen them. The' crops look exception ally well and the farmers universally seem to have an abiding faith in Oregon and prefer to stay here. All look forward to good crops and fair prices this fall and to the beginning of an era of prosperity. The past four years have been full of experience to the farmer, as well as to the business classes in the towns and cities. The lessons have been se well learned that the rural classes are more self-reliant and indepen dent than ever before. Small holdings of land are being encouraged by them and the future will see more varied em ployment and a greater diversity of farm products. , The State Grange. Corvallis was captured this week, by the grangers, the occasion being- th an nual meeting of the state grange aud ful-? ly 200 delegates and visiting members j were in attendance.' The secret meetings were held in the spacious Fireman's hall, where the opening meeting was called to j order at 10 o'clock Tuesday morning. Tuesday Afternoon at two o'clock a well attended public meeting was held at the court house where Mayor ..Woodward, . made the address of welcome on behalf of the citizens and extended to the visK tors the freedom of the city. Prof. H. T. French, master of the Corvallis grange, also made a brief address welcoming the Miests. He was followed bv master of the state grange, Wm. M. Hilleary, in j an address of considerable length that was attentively listened to throughout - I Mr. Hilleary, after giving a brief his tory of the Oregon grange and its work,. ' discussed the objects and benefits of the order in a practical common sense man ner. He stated that the grange was not allowed to take part in politics, although there were many public matters of a political nature "-that came' within the range of its discussions and these discus sions proved helpful in educating Us members to a better knowledge . of niariy public questions; and to illustrate the work of the grange along this Hue Mr. Hilleary itateil that a committee from the national grange were at present before congress urging a tariff in the interest of agriculture, a law for the restriction of foreign immigration, a pure food law and Lalso for an amendment to the constitu tion providing for the election ,o- sena tors by the people. v " i V Wednesday evening the visiting gran gers took dinner at' Cauthorn hall and iu the evening were entertained at the col-, lege chapel with an interesting musical andliUrary program. Will Linger Longer. The yound red-whiskered husband of Eliza Ann . Sanders Halcomb, the amagouian citizeness of Monroe precinct, marched with the Salvation Army' Sun day, and thereby hangs a tale. Wheu the body aud soul of old Laban Sanders parted company five or six years ago, soon after his release trom the peni tentiary, he left Eliza an interesting widow of 60 summers. Her only son "Itty," soon after was measured for a suit of clothes at the state's expense aud Eliza was lonely. t '. A young man named Holcomb worked on her ranch and he found favor in Madam Saunder's eyes. He was neither an Adonis nor a Solomon, but be waa I young, aud fighting law and feeing law yers bad tendered towards supplementing the ladys decided lack of charming fea tures so that she was not fastidious. She proposed, and as it was - either fight or marry with him, there was a wedding. , Holcomb stayed with the propositi oii as long as he could, but human nature has its limitedness. Saturday he came to town resolved to follow Laban and quit this world where Eliza Anns are too much in evidence. He determined to die that night. While waiting for dark ness to fall, he chanced to enter the Sal vation Army barracks. Something the lieutenaut said was pertinent to his case and he became absorbed in the services. He stayed after the meeting and cop fessed his intention ot'quitting thisf. vaieVThey arepiirely vegetable. ' Allan St of tears. He was earnestly labored -with and prevailed upon to take a new view of life. And so he marches 'with the army now. Woodmen's Picnic Great preparations are being made by the Philomath Woodmen for the enter tainment of Head Consul Faulkenburg, who will be with them next Wednesday, June 2nd, and deliver an -address. A basket picnic at the campgrounds, itntne mediately west of town, has been ar ranged and an interesting program will be rendered, in addition to which, there will be wood-chopping and sawing con tests, tugs of war, a nail-driving contest for ladies, foot races anct other amusing features. Everybody, young and old, great and small, is cordially invited : to be present. - Died. At Corvallis, Friday, May aist, 1897, after four months of great suffering, Mr. Andrew Einerick, aged 64 years and 25 days. He leaves a wife, two brothers and many other relatives and friends to mourn his loss. The funeral services were held in the Baptist church on Sunday morning con ducted by the pastor, Rev. M. Noble, as sisted by Revs. Moses and Kelly. A large congregation listened with marked at tention to tle sermon from John, - XIV, 3. Many beautiful - floral trib utes attested to the etseem in which this Indian war veteran and long resident of Corvallis was held, as well as showing deep sympathy for the bereaved. The remains were interred in the otd family burial ground, where , many friends gathered to unite in the closing services. Everything that kind feeling, could prompt was done to show respect to the departed and alleviate the grief of the sorrowing oaes, whose heartfelt thanks are tendered to all for everything done to assist them during this long and severe affliction. The sucrar-coatine on Aver's Pills not only makes them easy to take, bnt pre-4 serves their medicinal integrity to an in-. definite period. It dissolves immediate ly after reaching the stomach and -thus permits the full effect of the physic to be speedily realized. A CORRECTION. Ed. GAZErTEi In the last edition of yonr paper, there appeared among the "Monroe Items" an item relating to a certain "sawmill man whose last initial is Martin." As I am a sawmill man and my name happens to be Martin and I live near Monroe, I deem it but jus tice to myself to take notice- of the itemt lest it might be inferred that I . am the one referred to.
