ver. The popularity of last season's
most palpable success, "Hunting
for Hawkins," shows no signs of
abatement, but on the contrary the
popularity of this gem of comedies
is continually on the increase, and
it is certainly a compliment to the
management to note that this sea
son's production is meeting with
most flattering support. As is sel
dom the case with second season's
casts the personnel of "Hunting for
Hawkins" this season includes
some of the most noted comedians
on tho stage today. ''Hunting for
Hawkins" comes to the Corvallis
Opera House on Wednesday, Nov.

comedy cast that has visited this
section in many seasons.

United States Commissioner Irwin,
ex-Superintendent of Public In
struction of Oregon, who has been
on trial at Juneau on a charge of
malfeasance in office, has been ex
onerated bv Trial Judge Brovn at
Juneau. Two attorneys preferred
charges', alleging that Irwin appro
priated $11 to himself in two sepa
rate criminal cases. They wanted
his discharge, but Judge Brown de
clined to remove him. However,
he did scathingly rebuke Irwin for
inattention to duties, and remarked
that his office might be conducted
in much more businesslike etyle.
Alaska newspapers are devided
about evenly on the decision, some
agreeing, others disagreeing. At
any rate, Judge Brown's decision is
a victory for Irwin.

There has never been a time in
the past ten years when the out
look for the future of the dairy in
dustry in Oregon was so bright as
it is today. There has never been
a time when the prospect for rapid
expansion of the home market was
as favorable aa it is now. It is true
that some of the other branches of
agriculture are enjoying more than
ordinary prosperity out it is no
tiire to neglect the dairy industry.
The annual meeting of the Oregon
Dairymen's Association is to be a
principal part of the Farmers' Con
gress which will be held iu Hills-
boro, December 1G, 17 and lb.
There should be a record-breaking
attendance at this meeting. Dairy -
nen can hardly plead poverty as
an excuse for not attending. This
the only organization in the
slate which represents the dairy in
terests. It calls for the active sup
port and the attendance of both
dairymen and creamery-men. Ore

A Large Contract.
We are informed that a party
has a contract to furnish the
Southern Pacific Company with
a lafge order of piling, and in
tend getting them along the C.
& E. railroad near Blodgett. It
is said that two crews will be
put to work, one between Blod
gett and Summit and the other
between Blodgett and Wren,
and that the total number of
men to be employed is eighty.
The company will receive piling
of any length from forty to seventy-five
feet, six inches in diame
ter at the top and from twelve to
eighteen inches at the base. It
is said that those who own the
timber are selling it for ten cents
per stick of these dimensions.
This seems unreasonable, be
cause the price is ridiculously
small. Horses are to be used in
taking the piling from the woods
to the railroad track.
Those who claim to know are of
the opinion that this piling is to
be taken to Salt Lake, Utah, to
be used in some construction
work that this company is doing
at that point. It is said active
operations will be commenced at
Blodget about December 1st.
Where Bert Shines.
Bert P. VanClcve has been
"doing the grand" again as will
be seen from the following dis
patch to the Portland Journal
from Vancouver:
The Auditorium was crowded
to the doors last night at the
closing performance of the Clar.a
Mathes Repetoire Company. This
excellent company has been on
the boards at the Auditorium for
the past week, and has found a
warm place in the hearts of Van
couver play goers. The offering
last night was "A Royal Spy,"
and might be termed an "Eagles'
night," as the Eagles were out
in force and every member ot
the company wore the Eagle
colors. At the conclusion of the
second act, Bert P. Van Cleve,
the comedian of the company,
on behalf of Columbia Aerie,
No. 253, presented Miss Mathes
with an armful of beautiful flow
ers and an honorary membership
in the order. When Miss Mathes
recovered from her suprise suffi
ciently to find her. voice she res
ponded in . a few well-chosen
words, ending with the wish that
the Eagles might soar ever up
ward, until they roosted in
heaven.
Thirty-Three to Zero.
..The contest between McMinn
ville college eleven and the O A
C team" on; Agricultural field Fri
day! afternoon, : proved a good
practice . game for ; the farmers.
McMinnville Jias; some fine indi
vidual players, and her defensive
work, was a surprise to support
ers of the "orange," but. she
could v do nothing - in offensive
play when the farmers meant bus
iness. '
While Coach -McBride has had
the McMinnville' boys in hand
for scarcely more than, two weeks,"
he has taught them the -rudiments
of football so thoroughly
that they . will be a formidable
aggregation next - season.. They
handled the ball -splendidly, and
what few" fumbles they made.;did
not fair into the. hands .of the
farmers.
The eame was called at 3:37
and McMinnville . kicked off to
Burnaugh. O A C ' lined up for
her first down on her 40-yard
line and four minutes later Abra
ham was sent through for the
first touchdown.". : McMinnville
did better after the ' next kickoff
and secured the ball on1 downs
near the center of the field. She
surprised the farmers by making
13 yards oa her first attempt, and
20 yards a little later. Nash's
end was tried and he threw the
runner back for a loss. O A C
secured the ball and scored hey
next touchdown in seven min
utes. The half - ended, O A C.
12; McMinnville, o.
- Williams took Root's place at
half and Laughlin went in at
quarter in place of Gellatley in
the second half; and Nash went
to half, Thorp taking his place
at end. -The farmers added four
more touchdowns to their scoie,
the first one being -made in the
first "minute of play, Williams
skirting the. end for ,15 and 25
yards. Game was called seven
minutes before the expiration of
the second half on account of
darkness. Final score, O A'C,
33; McMinnville, o.
Features of the game were
Nash's run of . 5 yards for a
touchdown, in which he bowled
over three tacklers who attempt-;
ed to stop him, and his plunges j
into the line which alwavs net- j
ted a good srain. . Pilkinstou
made no effort to distinguish
himself against the McMinnville
boys, who were his former school
mates. Of the visitors, Ungejr
man, Long and . Brejwster distin
guished themselves, and Bundy
for the home team put up the
best offensive game he has play
ed this season. .
Another Scoreless Game.
The U of O and Albany Col
lege .elevens .played a; scoreless
game last Saturday for . the sec
ond tirhe this season and, as the
Gazette said last Friday, it is
possible that two games will have
to be played after Thanksgiving
to settle the championship.
While U of O demonstrated her
superiorty over Albany - in last
Saturday's contest, the, game
ended without definite results.
A way out of the difficulty would
be for O A C to nip Albany's as
pirations, and then try conclu
sions with the 'varsity. This is
probably what will happen if Al
bany can be induced to meet the
farmers. Albany was offered in
ducements to play the Agrics
early in the season, but satisfac
tory arrangements could not be
reached and negotiations were
broken off. She is now protest
ing that O A C will not meet
her, when she has not challenged
the farmers for a contest. O A
C has her dates filled until after
Thanksgiving, then if Albany
wants a game on - a neutral field
she can get it. -
Albany has a good, team the
best in her history but the on
ly thing that saved her from a
crushing ' defeat Saturday, was
Morrison's superb punting and
the fact that the game was play
ed on the worst field in Oregon.
A team that could offer any de
fense at all could prevent anoth
er team from working the ball
entirely across such- a field with
out losing it once at least. This
was Eugene's experience. She
carried thepigskin over dead fur
rows and through quagmires dur
ing the first half of the game un
til her backs were worn . out.
Twice it looked "as if. nothing
could prevent her from scoring;
but she lost the ball, once on a
fumble and once on downs and
Morrison sent the pigskin to the
center of the field.
There were no accommodations
for the players during the inter
mission between halves and they
stood around and shivered. The
result was that there was no snap
in te playing of either team in
the latter part o: tne game.
Albany kicked off to Goodrich
in the last half and he ran it in
20 yards. Eugene carried the
ball auicklv to Albany's E7-va1d
X. s
line, where she lost it on a fum
ble; Morrison sent the ball on
the center of the field," Payne
took the ball: on a delayed pass
and skirted the end. for 25 yards,
and a little later Goodrich added
20 more. Albany held on her 7
yard line, and Morrison punled
50 yards, ending all possibility
of scoring.
Albany has some brilliant
players-r-Morrisson, Templeton
and Francis and Ceach Edwards
has developed a strong team, but,
as Bedine, OA C's former star
guard, who witnessed the game
Saturday and yelled for . 'Albany
until he was hoarse, put it, "U
of O played all over Albany, but
Morrison and the mud saved the
day."

-Hon. Wallis Nash, who has
been in Chicago of late, recently
wrote a splendid article to the
Oregonian. ; In his article he
gives Oregon full praise for. what
he has observed ' in the way of
exhibits in Chicago and other
points and also ' mentions the
booklets and pamphlets issued
by the various countiesl of this
state. The following is an ex
tract from his letter: ; ' '

to mention Benton and Lincoln.
The former of the last two falls
between two . stools; the book
she issued is certainly the most
costly, best illustrated and best
gotten up of the show, but too
costly and elaborate for the wide
distribution needed. The little
booklet on the other . hand,
though well written enough, is
too slight and not illustrated. I
