A reception to studsnts, to which the general public was invited, was held at the college chapel Tuesday eveninn. The program consisted of an address by Hon. C. A.

Mr. Johns took for his subject the naturalization laws of the various countries, Jcomparing our lax method of admiting foreigt-ers, with tte stringent laws of 'European coun tries , which' are rigidly enforced. His remarks were favorably re ceived, and elicited much applause from the, very large audience present. At the conclusion of the address, an informal reception was held. The county board of equalization is i session this week. The eounty judge, clerk and assessor compose the board. . So tar little business on equalization lines has been done, bat, at is always the case, these matters are generally delayed until the last moment and the board may be quite busy today and tomorrow. In ease there is busi ness of this nature that is uncom pleted at the expiration of the week allowed by law for the considera tion of these matters it will be car ried over until the next regular meeting of the county court.

Since this notiee nothing has appeared in subsequent eataloaues regarding . tee mailer. and it was generally understood by all concerned, that tin agreement Still stood. Manv, thinking that the diplomas would be accepted, made no preparation for the en terance examination, and wheu they were refused admission to the fresh man year npon the strength of their 8th grade diploma, it is said a num ber of them returned home. Hold ers of these diplomas were offered admission - to the sub-freshman ' ear. ' Benton county red clover seed for sale at Zierolf s. Dr. B. A. Cathy visited Perfc iaud this week.

The musical farce comedy "The Qaeea f Havti," ivtn at the - Opera House Wediesdav evening, is Unquestionably the. best entertainment ever ziven in Corvallis by "colored" people. Every feature Was as coed or bet ter than advertised, and some of the specialties were exceedingly clever.

City during a period that the house remained unoccupied. Mr. Rickard recently moved into the dwelling and was obliged to smoke the bees out and rob them of their honey.

NNER 8 A LVE the most healing salve In the world. Awarded Second rPremlum. A message to the . Gazette from -Salem, - Wednesday after' noon, announced thef fact that Benton county had been awarded the second premium in the coun ty exhibit contest at -.. the state fair. The glory of . this victory is ennancea wnen it 19 considered that ours is one of the smallest counties in the state, and the general exhibit - was the finest ever shown at the Oregon state lair. Mr." French, who had the ex hibit in charge, is entitled to the highest credit, and to his efforts, undoubtedly, are due the honors won in this contest. , Linn county was given the first premiun of 300; Benton, sec ond, $250; Washingten, third, $200; Marion, - fourth, $150; Polk, fifth, 100. This will be a sore disappointment to some of the counties, especially Yamhill. wiera a really excellent display was arrangea. , Relating; to School. Bd. Gazette: Last .." winter toe superintendent of oar schools asked the eity council to pass aa ordiaafice prohibiting street pa rades by traveling shows during school hoars, or between o a. m. and 4 p. ffi. . At that time the manager of the opera feest e was mueh interested in the matter! and premised to loftk after the matter aid see that all pa rades woald be delayed until after 4 p. . , It would appear from what took place en the street, Wednesday, that the show au thorities refused to comply with his request in the matter of the parade; therefore, I think it Woald be a good thins; . for the schools If the Council would now pass the ordinance, as it woald relieve the manager of all re sponsibility in the 4 matter, and obedience woald be mora likely to follow. A band will draw children. Away from school, or any other place, and I was told last year that ba such occasions It was tot unusual to have ten or fifteen marked; "tardy ' aftet each parade, say nothing of those who played "hookey." j : -.'.,-:,.

Many of the fodder plants, are sometimes popularly ranked with grasses. The Paswston Play, The biograph production of the Pas sion Play given for the second time at the Methodist church last evening waa a decided success, and' the audience as on the first evening was Urge. , The repres entation of the shepherds watching their flocks, the birth, .baptism, death' and crucifixion of Jesus, were particularly realistic.
