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

The coin pm. y is reorganized.

Mr. Hajnmoud at the head.
The Denviocrat is authriz.d to state
that Mr. Hammond sys that as soon as

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. .

A Strange iree.
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.

'' 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

nursing a sere throat. He waa present
at the trial of Gus Wachlin, who was
convicted Saturday of murder in the first
decree for the killing of Tohu Led rick.
District Attorney Cleaton and S. B. Hus-
tu, Tongue's wld political rival, were le
state's attorneys, while Representative
Brown, of Morrow county, and a candid
ate for speaker f the house. in tha' Ust
attempted session of the legislature, was
the leading lawyer 'on the ' 'defease.
When the 'jury returned' its!'verdict.of
murder in the first degree, WachiiH col
lapsed and has nt - spokeil a word since.
llie judge gave him the benefit of every
leal technicality during the trial aud an
ip:ral will be useless.
I e it c. , an old bachelor living in a
caiiiii a few miles fruiii Hillsburo. was
murdered far a little' money. Signs
poiutod to Wac lin, but he had disap
pcarcd, an-', it was net until lnvt summer
tn.it he was apprehended. He was cap
tured in Morrow county where he was
working 011 a ranch. Kay McAllister,
brother of "Pap Hayseed," worked with
him in hay harvest, Wachlin then going
by the uame of Harry Williams.
Allan Logan, the young Toledo lad
who was mixed up iu the Independence

death ef E. H. Sylvester, was acquitted
at Dall--is Friday. Physicians testified
that it was not the blow struck by Logan
that caused Sylvester's death'. Tha ver

In William Shakespeare's time they had no stage scenery.
Everything was labeled. If a tree was needed a sign was hung
up like this; "This is tree." That's the way with some "bar

bargain isn't there. Our goods need no such label: You can
