A book was offered as a prize for the winning pupil, and a picture as a prize to adorn the room of the grade that won. Both prizes went to the fifth grade, after quite a bat tle. A number of patrons of the school were present on this occasion. It's just like this: If a mackin tosh will do you a little good, three or four dollars will do us a lot of good. They are going at any old price. We would rather carry the money over next season than the mackintoshes, and they won't keep this Oregon mist off your baek lying on our shelves. The time to buy is when the other fellow is anxious to sell; that is. just the frame of mind we are in right now. F. L. Miller. A chafing dish party was given .last evening by Mrs. L. L.

A Concerted Effort Being; Mads to Divide the College T.-n-n Seeks to Annsx a Portion of Bcutou. If ever a community was con fronted with issues that would test its metal to the utmost, the people of Corvaliis constitute that community, and there is every evidence that it will prove equal to the emergency. These issues involve the welfare of the city, county and state. To consider them, meetings of prominent 1 4.4 Dusiness men ana otners were held in the parlors of the First National Bank, Friday and Sat urday evenings of last week, and a mass- meeting has been called for tomorrow night at the court house. The matter of most vital im portance to be given attention is the proposed division of the State Agricultural College. A concerted effort to this end is be ing made by the Union county delegation in both houses. Bills have been introduced in the house by McAlister, and in the senate by Wade, to secure the location of the "Eastern Oregon Agricul tural College" at Union, the real purpose of which is to secure one- half of the funds now appropriat ed by congress for the support of tne btate Agricultural College and experiment .station. They ask an appropriation of $60,000 for - buildings, and $10,000 an nually for maintenance, and want a board of nine regents to take charge of the institution. So determinened and insidious is this attack upon this great insti tution, that the public and press knew nothing of themovement until the introduction of the bill in the senate on the 23rd, al though the original bill had been read in the house as early as the 17th. At the meeting in this city. Saturday evening, committees were appointed to represent the people in guarding the welfare of the college m this emergency. The sentiment of those present is embodied in the following ex pression by Senator Daly which appeared in Sunday's Oregonian: "it would be-a great blunder for the state to cause the appropria tion to be cut down, and the edu cational interest and labors divi ded with another. Rather than maintain two schools, it would be better to move the whole institu tion away from Corvaliis, and not to endeavor to build up a rival school at its expense and at the expense of the public, both in an educational and financial sense." Another matter of vast im portance is the movement on the part gf Linn county to annex a piece of territory four by seven miles, from the northern part of Benton. Councilman Gibson in formed the meeting that during a recent visit to Wells, he learned that a petition had been circu lated among the residents of that section, and about one hundred signatures had been secured. The inducement offered signers. was that in the event of the Al bany bridge becoming a toll bridge, if they were annexed to Linn they would be given free passage over the bridge. A committee was appointed to prepare and circulate remon strances against the proposed leg islation to be presented to the legislature. The rank injustice of robbiner Benton countv. already one of the smallest coun ties in the state, of a portion of her territory, when suoh a move ment is opposed by practically all of her citizens, should be suffi cient to defeat any action of this kind on the part of Linn county. A resolution was also adopted declaring it to be the sense of the meeting that there is no occa sion for amendments to the Cor valiis city charter with reference to sewers. The latter action was taken in opposition to a charter amendment that has passed both houses which amendment restricts the powers of the council with reference to sewers. - Our dele gates in the legislature have been apprised of this action, and they have given assurance that n'oth ing further shall be done m the matter until action is taken by the citizens of Corvaliis. The act is entitled "An act to amend sections 137 and 128 of chapter XI of the Corvaliis city charter," and was introduced by Senator Daly. Citizens' Meeting. A citizens1 meeting will be held at the court house, Wednesday (tomorrow) evening at 7:30 o'clock, for the purpose ot devising means to prevent the division of the State Agricultural Cellege, and the loss of a portion of our county. All citi zens are urgently requested to be present. Don't forget Nolan & Callahan's Great Reduction Sale. MlRht Have Been Serious. While out trouf h the coi n try, Saturday, buying horses, William Skip'on narrowly es caped serious injury. He was driving a livery team with which ha was not very well acquainted. After passing through a farm gate into the county road he left the team standing unhitched while he closed the gate. While he was in the act of doing so, the animals started in a trot, and Wiriain saw visions of a crippled teair and demolished buggy. He lit running, ana over-hauled the outfit just as the horses broke into a gallop. Running between the front and hind wheels, he seized the lines just as the hind wheel struck his leg and threw him. As he fell, he caught hold of the side of the buggy with one hand, but retained his grip on he lines with the other. After being draged some distance he was able to run the horses into a fence and stop them without any damage resulting. Mr. Skipton purchased three excellent horses Saturday, a span irom ilenry Dunn and an am. mal from Chas. Witham. All three weigh in the neighborhood of 1,500 pounds each and are five or six years old. ' Inhaled Chloroform. Prompt and heroic medical assistance saved the life of Miss Edna Irvine, Sunday afternoon. Being troubled with soreness in her nose, she had appiied a chloroform liniment which had been in the house for several years, lne application caused some pain, and to allay it, she reclined upon the lounge, and inhaled the chloroform evapor ating from the .bottle. Nearly an hour later she was found in an unconscious condition. A phys ician was summoned immediate ly, but it was with difficulty that she was restored to conscious- nesess. About five o'clock she suffered a relapse, and her lite was despaired of. Monday morn ing she was resting easily, and. although ske is yet quite weak, is is coped that her recovery will be speedy and permanent. A Turkish Bath. The announcement that the Turkish Bath" company will be seen at the Opera House to morrow night, will . be ' received with pleasure by all classes of our. theatre-goers-. ' The label of approval has been placed upon the play by critical audiences everywhere and the company en gaged in its production is a capa ble ct ilection of farceurs. It is indeed a pleasure to offer sincere commendation to an organiza tion so delightfully free from those features which too often mar farce comedy, productions and such an opportunity is offer ed in speaking of F. A. Wade's "Turkish Bath" company. This is the kind of entertainment to which people can take their families and the parents and child laugh together in enjoy ment.

It is understood that she will act as maid of honor at a wedding to occur in that city to day. A measure said to be very im portant, inasmuch as divorce cases are concerned, has been prepared and introduoed in the legislature. It is a provision for an amendment to the code. The particular point of interest is that it will prevent people from going into other coun ties than taeir own, to secure divorces, as is now the case. When a wife goes to San : Francisco on a visit, a husband can skip to Albany or some other obscure place and have a divorce and the wife w.ould not be apprised of the fact until too lata to try for alimony. The proposed measure is intended to check this method of doing busi ness.

Nolan & Callahan Obituary. James A. Cauthorn, whose death occurred last Thursday morning, was born July 7, 1838, in Essex county, Virginia, and at the time of his death was aged O2 years, 6 months and 17 days. When lie was two years of aire his parents moved to Missouri, where he crew to manhood. After his schooling he was em ployed in his father's store until 1865,. when he crossed the plains to Oregon. He settled in this county and for the first three years after his arrival engaged in teaching school. He was county surveyor in 1868, and two years later he engaged in warehouse business. In this business he became one of the leaders in the handling of grain, and the commission business in general. la 1874 he ran far the office of county olerk against B. W. Wilson, but was defeated. Again, in 1895, he entered the field of politics. This time he was the democratic nominee for county judge against W. S. Huf ford, by whom he was defeated. A few years ago he was afflicted with rheumatism. Since that time he was a great sufferer t the time of his death and a grea deal of the time was unable to walk, even with the aid of a eane or crutches. His suffering was intense at times and were a tax on his endurance and patience, yet he bore it all with great fortitude. He made a trip to California and gave the mud baths a trial, but after sev eral months concluded that they were unavailing and came away. Later he went to Portland and placed himself nnder the care of his brother, Dr. Frank Cauthorn. At about the time he was thought to be improving Dr. Cauthorn' s health failed him and he was obliged to go to Arizona in order to recuperate. James Cauthorn then came back to his Corvaliis home. Here he re mained until the end. He was perfectly willing for the end to come, for his long period of suffering had robbed Death of its terrors. As a man, James A. Cauthorn was esteemed by all. He was honest and upright in all his business dealings. He appre ciated and was always courteous to his friends. As a husband and father he was always kind and loving. Aside from his imme diate family and relatives there is a large circle of friends who will often recall his . many esti mable qualities and regret that his lot was so hard during his later years. Thus has another of the pioneers of this commu nity been removed from our midst, and although in a ma terial form he is absent, his memory will be ever present with the living.
