' In a recent let ter to. the Gazette, however, Mr. Nash-quiets thsse ream. . He says "I wish to say that my purpose and intention is to stay with the festival and with the Corvallis end of it, whether we sell the ranch or not, and that when the ranch is . sold I expect to-have more, not less time, to devote to the training of the fes tival chorus." - An" Exciting Time : Something over a year ago. D. S. Adams, who resides. ia-Job's ad dition, traded horses with George A. Robinson. vThe liorse that Mr. Adams received in the trans fer was a good-animal t pull, but one ' had to be careful in handling it, and if it was idle for any length of time its tad to be broken ever again. During the past winter. Mr. Adams had no use for his, teatn and gave; them to a friend to work for their "keep. A couple ef months ago the team was returned to the owner, and have stood in the "stable since until Tuesday. - -; As Mr-' Adams iwdald soon have to use ' tfieru, he concluded that it was about time to break his unraly horse, and '.with his son Norton's assistance, the team was Bitched to a wood wagon with a seat about six feet from the ground, j Before starting out, the precaution of tying a rope around the horse's jaw had been taken.' When Mr. Adems climb ed onto his seal Norton handed him the reins, but : before lie se cured a firm hold of them;' the team bolted. Away they went like-all .possessed, - headed north , with Mr. Adams tugging frantic ally, at the reins. Across the road fromv where the start was made, is a small ditch. The runaways missed the bridge, and the fore wheels went into the ditch, let ting the tongue fall. The tongue broke and ran into the ground, and the team got loose from the wagon.1 Ths check, to progress was so sudden that Mr. Adams was hurled into space and fell some distance, striking ' n his side, v For a wonder ho was only slightly braised. The team then ran east' to Mr. . Blakeslee's, where the'vicions horse jumped the fence, throwing the ' other animal. T;; This "brought them to a .standstill,' ' one horse stand ing a- one side of the fence, while the rther was down on the opposite side and could not get up. Mrs. Adams witnessed the run away up to the time that ;Mr. Adams was throws from the wagon. She was certain that her husband was killed,' and came near dying from fright, v It was somotime "before she was calmed and the effects of her; at taok of hysteria subsided." Taken altogether, it : Was a fortunate ending to what came near being a most disastrous affair. " Mr. Adams no longer owns this un ruly animal he traded it off the same day. . l J O A C Entertains. Through the courtesy oF the ' officials ot the C. & E., the offi cials of the State Grange came over from Albany, . Wednesday morning, arriyingat nine o clock. All of the officers of the grange, as well as representatives of the various agricultural and horticul tural papers, were iu attendance." Many other visitors embraced this opportufiity to .visit the col lege under conditions so favor able. 'The college of this . city, being an agricultural institution, is very near the hearts who take an interest 'in. grange matters and it is in every way worthy of their attention and iaterest. ' On arriving at the O A C, the visitors were met by a commit tee and escorted - about the grounds and through all : of. the buildings. They were shown, the various recitation rooms; the library, museum, printlflg office, and given aa insight to the many scientific and mechanical devices that are utilized . at this great agricultural college for .the fur therance of education and experi mental research. Ia many things the visitors were surprised, es pecially at the magnitude ot the institution ''' J In the . way - of entertainment the class fn physical culture. consisting of young ' ladies and 1 gentlemen, gave an athletic drill which was highly pleasing. The cadet battalion appeared on dress parade and went through a series of military drills, during which C the cannon boomed forth a hearty welcome. . "It was a memorable occasion and the visitors, as well as the faculty and students, were well, pleased; The visitors departed on the reg--ular 11:20 train. ; Inquiring for Mrs. Dutton. ; .Writinff to the Gazette from Port Adelaide,- South Australia; under date of April 6th, Mrs. S. H. Jones makes inquiry concert ing her sister, Mrs. J. uatton, formerly 01 this city. Mrs, Jones says that her sister, whose maiden name was Morris, lelt Beaton county; withher' family flbaiit Tgor. . for Wataskiwin. Canada. In July, 1897, she left that place to return to Corvallis. and $iaee. that time Mrs. Jones has had no news of them. ' Upon inquiry the Gazette is able to learn bat little concern ing the present 'whereabouts of Mr. Dation and family. Tfiey returned to Corvallis from Can ada a few. vears a?o. After the death of Mr. 'Duttoa's mother. he moved with his" familv to Salem, Oregon, where they prob ably still reside. Anyone hav ing knowledge whiflh will assist Mrs. Jones to find her sister, will confer a great favor by forward ing the same to this paper; or writing directly to that lady at Port Adelaide, South Australia, in care of the Mariae Board. A' Just Tribute. The weather was ideal on Decora tion Day. The city was draped with flags and bunting and was as gala as though the occasion were the Fourth of July. Early morn ing parties visited the cemeteries and when the set program of the afternoon occurred in these cities of the dead, the air was laden with sweet perfume, and beautiful flowers nodded a welcome. . The evening program, held in the M. E. church, was impressive and largely attended. The principal feature was the address by CoL Phil lips. Near the close of his remarks Col. Phillips paid this just tribute to the patriotic women of '61: "What of the no less patriotic women? History makes scant re cord ot their sacrifices, yet wives looking at their helpltBS children, repressed their tears and bad's hus bands go; proud mothers gave their jewels, their noble, manly boys, with the injunction to die rather than dishonor the name they bore; gen tle, loving sisters gave their beloved brothers; plighted maidens gave their chosen lovers to fill the' ranks of war. Then followed wteks and months of agonizing suspense. We fought battles, sometimes; they, all the time. After one of ours, how anxiously they scanned the ghastly list of killed and wounded to learn if it bora the name of their loved onel Ah! there it is among the miss ing; but whether killed, or wounded and a prisoner no one knew. Then came months, often lengthened into years, of alternate hope and despair. His comrades returned, but he marched not with them. The war ended, but he came not. He was among the raissing,-still and forever missing. Ob, merciful . God 1 How many other gravos filled by broken hearts ' were digged by those un known, unmarked "soldier graves!
