Hammond Preparing: to Push Yaquina Road Through Eas tern Oregon. The Line to be Called Coryallis & Eas tern R. R. Corvallis is to g'-t the name and Al bany (perhaps) the game in the lateit evolution of the road,, which started o -t as the Willamette Valley & Cuast kn.' road. The Albany Democrat of Wed nesday said: "Articles ef incorporation were filed with the secretary" of state to day (Wednesday), which mean a ."' .deal for the future of the road pasting ia-it through Albany, as well as for Al bany and. the Willamette Valley and Or egon generally. There have been re ports that the toad wac to be evtendei! regardless f the action of congress ii. refereuca to proposed har'cor improve ments. Now it is a fact. The coin pm. y is reorganized. -.

The- iiiaiiagcinc-Rl of the road will con tinue'. :is at pressnt with the energetic Mr. Hajnmoud at the head. The Denviocrat is authriz.d to state that Mr. Hammond sys that as soon as the Astoria road is completed, which will pro ably be some li;n.- in Jaifnary; he will tarn . hi attention to the extension of the -Corvallis & Eastern Raii road, as or iginal! v planned. . Later supplemental articles will be filed providing, fur the building of a branch line from Priv.eville to Pendleton. All of this i good news, that speaks for itself, is authentic aud may be relied upon." There is not unmixed joy in the above news. The honor there is iu the name will hardly compensate Corvallis for the loss of the central offices, but it is under stood, however, that in the articles of in corporation the head office is xut defin itely fixed at Albany, but it is a cas. of perUaps. As the "busi.-.ess end" of the road will, of course, be established where it will be most convenient, aud as Mr. Hammond Heed not necess-. rily give Corvallis anything, whatever changes are made, our people can only smile and say they like it. '. Mr. ilayo said to a Gazette reporter that he had little iuformation to give more than that iu the Democrat article. He knew, hvwever, that the ceulral of fices would remain at Corvallis for sev eral months, anyway. . According to Mr. Hammond's Orej,on iiH interview, the railroad will positively hp extended across eastern Oiesron. and iw I r.l.ever.,i,t Hors.iot.ro i ahead with the Yauiua harbor improve ments, the line will be run down the val ley to Portland. This last statement is of peculiar interest to W-'ley citizens and will doubtless stir them vp to renew.d eSTort in beh-.if f Yae'iina ba r. Dr. Crawford Dead. k, - -; ! ... -.. .

Mr. Wilson, who has a nursery at Chit wood, was iu town .this week with a num ber oi' small trees that are curiosities. He took one out to the college &nd Prof. Craig, the botanist, and Prof. Coote, hor ticulturist, spsHt several hours trying to identify it. Its general appearance would indicate that it belongs to the holly fami ly. It has prickly leaves greatly resem bling holly. But it was resembleuce only, and the professors finally called it an evergreen cherry. " . Mr. Wilson confirmed their judgment. Visiting friends in California a few years ago, he saw on their ranch year an old adebe house, a big evergreen cherry tree, supposed to be over one hundred years old. He brought heme all the seed he could get and has now several hundred thrifty young trees at Chit wood. ... The tree is evergreen and tke cherries ripen about October and hang on the tree after ripening a loag time without deteri orating. The fruit is a genuine cherry, handsome and with a. very pleasant fla vor. . The tree is quite ornamental and grows to a height of ten feet. Will Sins Here.

'' Gone to Eureka. .George Weber and Miss Lydia Kisor were .married Sunday evening, Dr. Thompson, officiating. They started next day for Eureka, C.lifornia, where George is to engage in busiuess with Andy Taylor. , The marriage of George recalls tbe sad accident . that resulted iu the death of Win. Kerr, last spring. The boys were close friends aud together much of the time.' Ou the day that Kerr met his death, the two friends with anothei friend, were fishing out iu the mountains, taking with them two sticks of dynamite. Reaching the home of an acquai ntance, Kerr and Weber went out for a try at the trout; leaving the third fisherman at the house. 'They met with no success and returning, Kerr "touched off" a stick of dynamite "to hear the noise, ""and threw it quite a distance away. Waiting some time and the stick not exploding, Kerr went to it aud started to pick it up when it ; exploded, killing , him instantly. Weber immediately ' secured assistance and the body of the unfortunate boy was brought home. The operations of fate er providence are beyond understanding: One friend c'nt 'off in the prime of life, the other n- happily tasrried and with every proj ect f enjoying a long life. ' Ttic,, inti:u cy -of the' two iricuds is sh wit i4 the fact that some time before Kerr's death he and. Weber insured theii lira's;'' for 315,000 each, payable to each other, -in some Washington-insurance as- 'iociatlotui Georgia; overwhelmed by tbe death' ef his friend, made no attempt to 'collect ths insurance until several months after the ai-cident - There was some dis agreement between the company and the payee, but finally, a compromise was agreed upon, Weber to 'receive about (1000. , .Mr ahtlMr.v Vber are wel 1 ku.-wn in Corvallis aud it is hoped that they will succeed in their, new home.
