Cotaan Told of the Work uf Imtniaratioa Bureau. ' - Upon invitation of. the Citi zen's League, Major G. M. Mc Kinney, chief of the Harriman Immigration Bureau, and W. E Coman, general pissenger agent of the Southern Pacific for Ore gon, addressed the business men of Corvallis at Firemen's Hall last Monday evening. The hall was filled ftnd the . audJenct was enthusiastic, Major McKinncy has charge of the head offices of the bureau at Chicago, which is sending out thousands of copies daily of circulars advertising Ore gon. In his talk Monday night he explained the system through which this advertising matter is placed in the hands of every per son desirous of information con cerning this state. Six members cf the staff are traveling through the middle west and as far south as Georgia, giving lectures-on Oregon, ih unrated by steropti can views. Thereby arousing an interest in this state and educat ing the people concerning our great resources. The bureau has distributed 695,000 pamphlets descriptive of Oregon during the last few months. Mr. Coman said that he had heard much of the slowness of the people of Western Oregon, but no section of the state had responded so quickly or.so hearti ly to the request for advertising literature, or was more active in support of the . immigration bu reau. In the past two months nearly 4,006 ' immigrants have been carried into Western Ore gon counties by his company's lines. Brief talks were made by Judge Hollis, late of Benton Harbor, Mich , and a number of local citK zens, and a rising vote of thanks was extended to the visiting speakers. The League appointed Z. H. Davis, E. E. Wilson , and W. E. Yates a committee to devise means and plans for establishing and promoting a system of rural telephones. The scheme is to place a telephone in the house of every farmer in the : county, and provide this serviceat a nominal cost. A resolution., was adopted asking the city council of Port land to grant a" franchise to the Empire Telephone Company', an organization independent of other telephone companies,-which pur poses ; establishing rural systems throughout th? state.- Remarkable Animal Act. With the Nprris & Rowe's Big Shows which ; are to appear here soon, is a remarkable animal act, which is so entirely out of the ordinary that the press through out the country - have been more than lavish in its praise. The great act, which is the cause .of j so much comment, is the con gress of educated seals and sea lions, which they are presenting this season. It is almost beyond the power of reason to believe that seals and sea lions, which have never been accredited with any more sense than to be able to lazily pull themselves upon a rock, or to dine upon a fish din ner, can : be made to perform maneuvers and exceedingly intri cate tricks at the beck and call of a human being. They have been taught to skip ropes and to balance and juggle all sorts and sizes of arcticles, such as lighted torches, hoops and balls, and they even play upon musical in struments. They have also a clown among them, who enters into the humor ot his actions with as much zest as a human boing. This is positively one of the most novel acts given by any tented exhibition. These per forming amphibians will be seen in the grand street parade which will leave the show grounds. Co-operation.- Necessary. Edjtou Gazette: We believe inoBi " IwartHy in beautifying our town, in making it clean, whole some and attractive. But this can 'not .be done simply by a few per- sms.. All residents must join in thi3 work or it will be only a par tial succeas. It is needless to speak of cows.picketed out, horses also,--and the happy motherly hen with her brood of chicks that is suppos ed, to be "No trouble whatever!" and '.'Never does any damage." To begin with: Sfock should not be allowed picketed within the city limits, and no pets, (chickens or otherwise) should run at large. We 6urely have a sufficient num ber of able-bodied men and scythes to cut the roadside grass .(you know nothing is easier than ti see a white man mow ) . But, n.j-hifig U morn beautiful than clean! y cu gra.1-3 bordering 'the wa'ks and ' street, and nothing more unsightly than the --Tianner. in ..which $H-k leaves it. Then stock will get loose; it continually occurs. How' about those beautiful flower beds, wet kept lawns, and gardens, then? Many low, gateless hedges now take the place of fences, aiid are no pro tection to the wandering cow or horse. Even where there are fences and gates, callers, boys and agents forget to close the gate, and if the owner is absent he might as well not have a fence. And. Madam Bidd? deliffhts io w ander in, to lay ngihfng of Mfr: Goose, Rut-lo! tho garden of an hour ago is a thing of-' the past. Nos? if our city tfathefS i desire the residents of Corvallis to enter this scheme of beautifying the town, it will be nferjessary for these same city Fathers to protect these improvements-' As to how they shall be protected, we. leave that entirely to their judgment to deter mine. If the "Fathers" will pro tect us, we, the people, will do our part and the town shall blossom as the rose. Resident. A Metamorphosis. Logan Hays and George Belt started for a spin to Albany in the former's fine new turnout, last Tuesday , evening. They were happy in . anticipation of a pleasant drive, and cordial greet ing by friends in the metropolis of Linn. An hour after departure from Corvallis, they returned dis heveled and dispirited. The new buggy ,was a wreck,, the nobby harness was ruined, the faithful steed limp and dejected. It seems that the large road roller lying . by the roadside at the top of Stewart's hill, was responsible for this sudden ; metamorphosis. Mr. " Hays' horse is a strenuous animal and as it' came suddenly in view of the roller, it shied, upsetting the buggy and piling the precious cdntents in the road. George and Logan assumed a sit ting posture just in time to see horse and buggy part company. A kind farmer caught the steed and tied- it to a fence. The wreckage was gotten together and brought back to town. : Will be Exhibited Here. Arnold's menagerie of strange and feroeious beasts which will be exhibited infCorvallis during the Woodmen's ' carnival, was augmented by 4 the arrival of a consignment of animals in Port land, last weeki V They were im ported'by Wml, Bartell, of New York, and were captured in Aus tralia,? New4ahmdy- -Africa,' South America . and India, and are valued at $16, 600 In this aggregation are two Australian kangaroos, an emu and cassa wary; a pair of striped hyenas from the -)esert of Sa hara, a couple V of :-- Abyssinian ions, a royal Bengal tiger cap tured in Northern India,-a black bear, a lion-monkey from Brazil, a South American tapir, and a pair of coyotes; also a 'happy amilv combination, in which monkeys from all parts of the world are bunched in together with parrots, cockatoes, etc. It is Mr. Arnold's intention to give tne animals a week's rest. Ele then will place them on exhi bition. Beginning with Tune 1, he will make a tour through Ore gon, Washington and Idaho. Within two years be expects to establish a permanent zoological garden in Portland. ? Real Estate Transfers.

Corvaltin, Ap'il 14, 19O3 ' May Revolutionize Football. American college football bids fair to be revolutionized next fall if the intercollegiate - football rules committee carries into effect a regulation which it now , has under consideration. This rule provides for nothing less than that the ball has to pass through the hands of only two men be fore beinjr, regarded as in play. At present it is necessary for it 10 go through the haads of three mear By the proposed tule the Center cail snap the ball to any man on the team, who may then rush ifrith iK 'Tr will be ntissiole. therefore, for the quarterback to carry the ball, an important in novation, and because of the lact that any man may take the pig skin without the quarterback's previous assistance. All sorts of puzzling combinations will be feasible. Indeed, in the opinion of experts, football under these. conditions would be an entirely new game tor the first season, at least, and would resolve itself largely into a question, "Who's got the ball?" With this regulation in ettect the present evils of mass play, which have aroused such opposi tion. I would, it is believed, be largely done away with, and a more open and less dangerous style of play come into effect. Obituary. ' Mary Alice Winkle, who died at her horn on the Island sooth of Corvallis, April 26tb, was bora in Benton county near Monroe, Aug. 26, i8?2, and grew to womanhood in that vicinity. In 189i. She was united in marrfage toGus Winkle f Corvallis, who with two bright littl children, the eldest a daughter of 11 and the youngest a son of 5, are now bereft of one who was ever a faithful wife and a devoted mother. Her parents are W. II. and R. W. Levaugh who with a number of brother and sis ters reside in Linn county near Harris bnrg. Mrs. Winkle has a" large circle of rela tives in the south end of Benton, amongst whom are some of the most representa tive people of the county. She was a member of the Christian Church of Har risburg, having united with that church about four years ago. She loved the church of her choice, was a consistent Christian and a zealous worker in the church. And in all things, in her daily conduct, her maternal instructions and her dealings with those surrounding her home circle, she tried to exeuaplity the life which'the Great Master Las taught us all to follow; always remembering that we are liable to i,Err in human,kindness . - And forget that we are dust If we miss the law of kindness .: -. In our struggle to be just. Snowy wings of peace shall cover AH the plain that bides away When the weary watch is over And the soul has passed away." . Mrs. Winkle was a member in good standing of the Degree of Honor of Har riaburg under whose auspices the beauti ful and impressive funeral obsequies was performed. ' ' A large number of relatives and friends mourn the untimely loss of one who was a faithful wife and mother, an affection ate daughter and a loving sister. The floral gifts offered at the grave were very beautiful and in great profusion. These and many other gracious acts of kindness are greatly,, appreciated by the bereaved family, wh met around Alice's grave on that sad bnt beautiful day.
