Rose Festival.
The V. P. S. C E. of tbe Christian
church have decided to hold the "Rose
Festival" in the Opera House, on Thurt-
day evening, May 10, aa it is expected
that '.be rosea will be in full bloom by
that time. An excellent program is be
ing prepared, ice-cream and cake, and
coffee and sandwiches will be served, and
a very enjoyable evening is promised to
sll who attend.
All rose culturists sre invitid to co
operate with tie committee, to secure as
large a display as possible. Suitable
prir.es will le awarded for tbe best ex

made more beaulilul. Eugene, Salem
and other of tbe valley towns are mak
ing arrangements for floral shows, with

cultivation ol more flower gardens, and

Almost a Fire.
This morning about 10 o'clock. Mr.
Beckley, ol the Beckly & Howard meat
market discovered tbe interior of bis
back room was afire but as tbe Hi rues
had made but very little headway they
wero promptly extinguished. Tbe fire
evidently caught from a lot of paper
which was in tbe wood box behind the
stove, an there was a very hot fire in the
stove. But for tbe timely diecoverv and
prompt action a large conflagration was
averted.
