" ; Fate is most unkind to Austin Craig. During the last few years he has had to stand trial upon various criminal charges, but in every instance the evidence has not been sufficient to convict. He was arrested in Pvrtland lu-t Wednesday on a charge of crn- bezzlernent, Mr. ' Craig is a brothsr cf .Proltgsor Craig, for- mifiy of ihe Oregon Agricultural College. He resided la' Corval lis for some time, and Ilis friends here believe that he is ianocem of-ariy iiitcnl:oel wrong. Ot his lot. st trouble, the Ore gonian says: A statement of the case is that Craig in his capaci ty us postma. ter received a registered poueff from Baker City containing mit packages. He checked them and wrote six on the register card which accompanied the mail. A day or two later the card came to the Baker City office WllU LUG UUiE U v.uaugvu ly , and a line drawn through the de scription of -a registered package from Spokane, containing""t72, addressed to James Rupp, Green horn. The package never reach ed Rupp, and Craig, when called to account for it, answered that he did not know anything about it. His explanation was that in stead of checking off the regis ter card at once, as he ought to have done, he copied- the card into his register book to facilitate matters, and afterward in check ing off the Greenhorn mail dis covered that the Rupp letter en j tered on the card was not there, Besides his duties as postmas ter, Craig . conducted a branch of tho Sumpter Bank for A. P. Goss, and soon after the time of the postoffice trouble Goss caused the arrest of Craig on the eharge of embezzlement of $noo, but the grand jury failed t6 return an in dictment in the case. Craig also ran a townsite scheme, and alto gether appeared to be a very en ergetic person.

Mr. Kimball is a fine specimen of the old-time actor, and he seems to be specially built for the part of Tom Bolton. The scenerv is well worth a visit, the view of McCloud river be neath the shadow of" Shasta, and the Yosemite valley being especi ally fine. Good specialties are given between acts by Miss Cad die Franks, soprano, and Horace Mann, baritone.

' In a few remarks' introductory to the program, Professor Cordley explained that the proceeds of the evening would be placed in the treasury of the Corvallis Improve ment Society,- to be expended in beautifying the city. In the three minutes allotted to Trim, Professor Cordley suggested many inexpensive improvements which would add greatly to the attrac tiveness of the homesof Corvallis, and conduce to the health of the communityv The speaker said that the home should be regarded as something more than a mere place of abode. It should be made attractive, beautiful ; all th-t "home" implies.- Coivallis, especially, should be mad a city ; of modern homes.
