A few days ago a couple of Cor
vallis gentlemen got into an alter
cation and finally one ot them in
cidentally mentioned that it would
give him great pleasure to warm
the wax in the ears of the other
fellow. They were both elderly
men. The one who had. be;n
threatened pulled a lead.pencil out
of his pocket and handed it to his
opponent, saying: "Mark every
bone in your body so you can get
it back in place, for I shall break,
every one of them." This was
such an unusual proceeding in a
case of this character, that negoti
ations were declared off.
Wm. L. Beagle, of Umatilla
county, arrived in this city last
Thursday and departed northward
the following day. Friday morn
ing, in company with Capt. J. W.
Crawford, he visited the O A C and
was much impressed with what he
saw at this great educational insti
tution. He said that he intended
to send his son to college here next
year. Mr. Beagle has been up in
Alaska and the British Yukon
country during the past four years
and only departed fro 11 Nome on
the loth of last October. He is a
very pleasant gentleman as well as
a thoroughly wide-awake business
man.
Mrs. Jones was cleaning hoiue

men, "if you will allow us to get
some whiskey, we can eas-ily clean

exclaimed she, "if whiskey will do
it, I will go right up stairs end get
a Hark of it I have." The men
took. the whiskey but, of course,
washed the frames in soap suds,
and drank the whiskey. When
they brought the shiuing frames in
to Mr?. Jones, she exclaimed, "so
whiskey did ill" "Yes," answered
the men, "whiskey did it." "And
just to thtnk," said Mrs. Jones,
"that I was gcing to throw it away.
It was what I bathed poor Fido in
before he died."

"The way Albany newspapers
abuse the O A C football team,
saying the men are afraid to meet
the Albany eleven, and such,
wouid seem to indicate that said
papers don't want Corvallis peo
ple to come to A'.baay to trade
any more." The Albany Dem
ocrat credits the above to the Ga
zette, and makes this comment:
"In view of the fact that the
abuse has all been from Corvallis
this is good. The Democrat
dosen't believe the O A C team
is very much afraid of anything.
Albany people though consider
the Albany team their equal."
There is evidence here that
Bro. Nutty is going out of
his way to find trouble. If he
will show us where one line of
the item he quotes ever appeared
in the Gazette, we will make
him a present of a year's sub
scription. However, there is a
point in the item, to which resi
dents of Corvallis should give
heed ; they should spend their
money with Corvallis merchants.
If the local dealer does not carry
what you want, let him know
there is a demand for it and his
business sense will lead him to
supply it. This is the only way
to build up Corvallis.. Here are
the papers of Albany abusing
and belittling the football team
of the Agricultural college, and
yet the students of that institu
tion have Mred an orchestra from
Albany to supply music for their
dance tomorrow evening. A bet
ter orchestra could have been se
cured at home, and the money
kept in Corvallis.
The McMinnviile Telephone
Register says: "Corvallis peo
ple outdid themselves in their
treatment of our football team."
And speaking of the reception
given to the McMinnviile team,
the same paper said: "The
whole affair was pleasant and in
formal. At the close of the
social an elegant and tasty ban
quet was served. The farmers
truly can entertain as graciously
as they can play football fiercely."
The public school teams of Salem and
Corvallis demonstrated Saturday, that
the crack college teams of Oregon have
no monopoly on scoreless football games.
In an exciting contest 611 O. A. C. field
on that occasion, the3e young gridiron
heroes struggled to reach the goal of the
other fellow to no purpose.
While the . local team had slightly the
better of the contest, it failed to win
through lack of generalship Their
strong forte was bucking the line, and a
systematic series of plays of this nature
would have yielded at least one touch
down, hut the temptation to electrify the
spectators with brilliant end dashes by
the backs was too great, and these were
frequently attempted with an invariable
loss of yardage.
The first half was played between Sa
lem's 33-yard lice and the center of the
the field. In the second half the Cor-
allis lada devoted their spare time to
line plays and brought the ball from their
0-yard line to Salem's 4-yard line, where
it rested when time was called.
The local stars were Cameron, Keady,
Pricliard . and Thorp. Cameron was a
tower of strength 011 defense; and when
the'left tackle was called ''over," there
was always something doiag. He strode
moDg the players of the opposition like
Gulliver among the Lilliputians. ;

The Farmers Won.
O AC won an easy. victory from
Willamette University in the re
turn game played with that institu
tion at Salem, Saturday. Captain
Gault, Abraham and Williams en
joyed the "game from the sidelines,
and Coach Herbold did not accom
pany the team. But. oi.ce in the
iirst half did the farmers cross their
opponents goal line; and they fooled
along in the second half, making
three touchdowns. In the last
seven minutes they seared twice,
and the Salem eubsthrew up their
hands and exclaimed: "Great
guns! They have only been fool
ing with us!"
The final score was, O A C, 21;
Salem, 0.
Nash stepped in a hole while

Register. Ira Nelson, formerly a Corrallis
business man' but. now clerk of
Yamhill county, was in Corvallis,
Friday, as a representative of the
government land office at Washing
ton. When " Secretary Hitchcock
began investigating the alleged tim
ber land frauds in Oregon, he asked
the various county clerks of this
state to advise the department con
cerning the list of questions they
had been asking persons filing on
timber claims. The list of ques
tions submitted by Clerk Nelson
pleased the department better than
any of the other lists, and Mr. Nel
son was appointed a special com
missioner to visit the clerks of Polk,
Benton, Linn, Lane, Douglas and
Clackamas counties and instruct
them how to proceed when an ap
plicant appeared before them to
tike oath as to his intentions.
Next Thursday is Thanksgiving,
and it may truthfully be said that
the people of this state have much
to be thankful for. Of course here
and there will be found a person
who will opine that life in general
is a sort of nightmare with him.
But if such a person will look
about and take the coirect view of
life, he will find that, although his
affairs may be in a bad way, they
might be worse, and he should be
thankful for this phase of the affair.
There is scarcely a man, woman, or
child whose lot seems dreary but
by comparison will conclude that
some other person's condition is
worse than theirs, and they would
not excnaEgo places with the per
son in mind. There is truth in
the saying that ''thinking make3 it
so," and if one makes up his mind
to be thankful he may readily find
something for which to be thankful.
