A young man, who has only been married a month or two, was told by his wife the other morning that if he would get her some butter milk she would make him some hot cakes like his mother used to perve. He thought it would look a little too much like a family man to be seen carrying a jug of butter milk on the streets in broad day, so he procured a glass fruit jar and placed it in a paper sack and pro ceeded to the Kaupisch creamery, where he was provided with the "mother" of hot cakes. He then started lor home, this young mar ried man. It wa3 a rainy day and when Frank had reached a conspic uous spot combined dampness and the weight of the jar caused the bottom to drop out of the sack and the ja." was broken to 'smithereens" on the pavement.

Republican primaries ware held in Benton county yesterday after noon. The feeble flame of interest that made its appearance a coud!c of days ago was fanned into a bhiz-i M: of good-natured rivalry when two Kvho sets ot delegates tor the convention Hall were placed in nomination in a number of precincts in Corvallis. The Gazette went to press too early to obtain tho names of the successful candidates.

The committee decided not to interfere with the decision by which W. G. Hale, of Pacific Univaraity, was awarded the medal in the or atorical contest last Friday. The award having been made in accord ance with the manifest intention of the judges, the committee did not deem it proper to change the de cision because of a clerical error in transcribing intermediate figures. Charged With Sheep Stealing. Deputy Prosecuting Attorney E. R. Bryson was called to Alsea Tuesday to hear a case before Jus tice Abe Clark. A warrant had been sworn out for the arrest of J. R. Allen by A. J. Brown, charging the former with the crime of steal ing fheep. Attorney. Bryson arrived at court in the Alsea Valley about 7 o'clock Tuesday evening, after a most fa tiguing rid. over the mountain, and found his honor and the various witnesses awaiting his coming. " The Corvallis Furniture Fac tory is at "present inoperative, owing to the fact that the pro prietors are unable to secure wood for the manufacture of furniture and for fuel to furnish power. Orders have been placed for both and it is hoped that ere long affairs will so shape them selves that the whirr of rnachi nery will aeain be heard at this establishment. "The proprietors are R. C. Colbert and. W. U Gregory. They grot in here too late last season to place contracts for all -the - material they wil need at present, but they have a bright outlook and. .re confident that in time thev will be enabled to secure materials for their use so that" they may operate their plant steadily. A visit to the factory disclosed the fact that they have all of the latest and best machinery, in cluding planer, sticker, joiner, tenon, mortising . machine, shaper, band saw, lathe, rip and cut-off saws, sand-papering ma came, etc. 1 nev nave a 6d- horse power, Nagle boiler, which drives a very neat engine. They have a drv kiln and the exhaust from the engine is piped through the kiln and furnishes an im mense amount of heat, in fact, all that is necessary. When the factory is operated at its full ca pacity it will give employment to ten or twelve men. Their aim is to manufacture furniture of oak and ash. "They wm mate a specialty ot various mds of mouldings and will ca ter to the local" market for job work in their line. They also have in view the manufacture of a unique refrigerator. This new industry should re ceive all encouragement at the hands of our people. It is a w spoke in our industrial .wheel and adds to the importance of our city and county. Fvery new whistle that blows, wheel or saw that turns, cives employ ment for labor, creates a demand or raw material and gives our community a pay roll. There- ore stand by all of them and on very possible occasion give them boost." O. A. C. items feared that ' those who were not well acquainted with the younger brother might think that the matter reflected on him.r In this Mr. Zeis is greatly mistaken, for any person who knows the fam ily will vouch for te fact that they are, without exception," above any such suspicion Circuit Court. Tomorrow morning at 9 o' clock Judge Hamilton will hold a pre- iiminary term 01 coun at wnica time things will be arranged for the . regular spring term of the Circuit court, which will open at q o'clock Monday morning. The docket for this term is the light est in years, in fact, one of the lightest in the history of the county. There are only twenty cases oa the docket. Ten of these were continued from the last term? so that in all there are only ten new cases. There are two state cases; one is the state against Chas. Thomas, for passing fraudulent checks, and the other is the case of Pearl Cceper, who shot a Summit party in the arm early last fall. Cooper was tried and acquitted at the last term of the Circuit court oa the charge of assault and battery. Now he will again have to appear on the charge of carrying concealed weapons, The balance of the docket made up oi suits for divorce, to perfect titles, actions for foreclos ure of mortgages, etc. separate the men according to", their tribes, according to their clans (See Jos hua 7:14 ), in order that clan may aid its clan and tribe its tribe. If thoa wilt thus do, and that the Achaeana will obey thee, thou wilt then know both who of the chieftains may be a coward, and who of the people, and who perchance may be "brareffor they will fight by themselves. Then also thoa msyst know whether by the decree of the gods thou destroyest not the city or only the cow ardice of the men and want of skill in the art of war." (Agamemnon's reply continued) K anted.

David Meskimen, of Stafford, Kas., is lying dangerously ill with pneumonia at the Occidental hotel in this city. He arrived Tuesday on the noon train in a state of de irium. His actions attracted the attention of a number of business men, whose places he visited, and finally Chief Alexander, who was t dinner, was telephoned for. He questioned the stranger, but could get nothing rational from him, ex cept that his name was David Mes kirnen. He was taken to the Occi- lental and Dr. Altman was called The doctor found the patient suffer- ; with a severe attack, of pneu monia, in the presence ot wit nesses his pockets were searched. They were found to contain a draft for $1490, a promissory note and papers which showed that Mr. Mes lumen's home was at Stafford, Kas. A telegram was im mediately sent to thit city and in the meantime the patient was receiving every atten tion. Yesterday about 'noon a tel egram from Mr. Meskimen's son an nounced that he would start for Corvallis immediately. - A further search yesterday re vealed $52.18 in Mr. Meskimen's pockets and papers in his trunk, showing him to be a veteran of the civil war, drawing a pension of $51 per quarter.
