Owing to a misunderstanding,
a Lumber of students who applied
for admission to the college this
week, were greatly disappointed.
Some, time ago an agreement be
tween the college authorities and
state Supt Aekerman wa3 reached,
whereby the oth grade county
diplomas, issued under the state
course of study, were to be accepted
at the college as ' sufficient evidence
to entitle the holder to admission
into the freshman year without
further examination, and note was
made of this fact in the college cat
alogue Immediately following the
agreement. 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. '

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.

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 :

The Paswston Play,
The biograph production of the Pas

the Methodist church last evening waa a
decided success, and' the audience as on
the first evening was Urge. , The repres

realistic. Prior to. the opening of the
Passion Play several pictures protraying
