The United Evangelical church was filled Tuesday evening with a happy throng of people. -The an nual Christmas entertainment was the attraction.

Should the win ning tieket njt be presented in 30 days, another drawing will be held, so it will be wise for all holding coupons to preserve them. Shooting Match. On the afternoon of Christmas day, Harvey Sargent, proprietor of the shooting gallery of this city, held a shooting match for turkeys and geese on the flat above town. Quite a number of our sportsmen were present and in all about 500 shots were fired. Clay pigeons were used in place of live birds. Five entnes were made at thirty cents " apiece for each bird, and each contestant was allowed five shots at clay pigeons. The man who made the highest score received a ticket entitling him to a turkey or goose as the case may have been. In case a coupla of con-, testants shot a draw they were allowed to shoot it off between themselves. The match fur nished considerable diversion for quite a number ot men who did not do any fchooting. It seems that success m this case entauea consiaeraoie anxie ty. , Take the case of E. E. Wilson, for instance: Mr. Wil son, through some peculiar stroke of good fortune succeeded in securing a ticket that entitled him to a turkey. Remembering his experiences with turkeys in days gone by, when he stole turkeys for his friends, for the tun ot tae tning, and tney in turn 'swiped" them of him, Ed concluded that he woald have to be very careful of his ticket, so he locked It up in his safe. It is reDorted that he not only lock' ed the ticket up in the safe,' but sat up all night, to watch the safe. 'Tis a flood thing that Christmas comes but once a year. Deer and Does. Tuesday, a fine fourpoint buck passed through Corvallis on a canter. It came to town frorrf the north and passed along Fifth street, just west of the Court House. Those who saw the animal say that it was a very fine buck. Several blooded bird dogs gave chase, but were either called off or their wind played out, for none of them continued the chase far. About ten minutes after the animal passed through Corvallis some hounds belonging to Mes srs. DeAtley and Brown came along on the track, but were stopped near the court house. It seems that down near Soap Creek, where Messrs. DeAtley, Brown and Frazier reside there is a congregation of coyotes and it is rare sport for these gentle men to put their hounds on a coyote track. A wtekorseag they started the dogs on a coyote trail and the varment was chased over the mountain into Kings Valley three times in one day and finally succeeded in out witting the dogs. Last year Mr. DeAtley cap tured six coyotes, but this year has only succeeded in killing one up to date, according to re ports. The supposition is that these hounds were out after coy otes last Tuesday when they struck the track of the buck and took it up. It is safe to say that the deer owes its life to the fact that this is the close season, otherwise somebody in Corvallis woald have had venison roast for Christmas dinner. A Christmas Party. A merry crowd of children gath ered at the home of Mr. and -Mrs. C. A. Spaulding, Christmas day to celebrate the coming of Santa Claus.
