Walter Brown's fine big team
took a lively spin down Main street
Sunday morning: - Mr; .Brown had
made some pu, chases of 'groceries,

distributed from the Occidental
hotel to the sawmill, where the run

Wm. Broders, who - recently pur
chased the saloon business conduct
ed Tbos.WhitebMn fo the last
twenty years, took ' charge yester
day morning. Mr. - Whiteborn is
entitled to much of the credit due
Corvallis saloon keepers for the or
derly manner in which these places
are run. There is probably no
town in Oregon, where the city or
dinances regulating the liquor traffic
are more implicitly obeyed than
here in Corvallis. Mr. Broders is
good citizen, and the confidence is
expressed that he will spare no ef
forts to comply with every require
ment of the license laws.
Corvallis seems to be behind other
cities in the matter of early closing.
The various business houses in Eu
gene, 'Albany, McMinnville and
other towns close their doors at 6
rfricnr avarsavininn ovncnf SSaftir.
uuj, uui uio wu uuatuui ui into
hours still prevails in Corvallis.
There seems to be no good reason
for this policy, but the habit has
been formed, and habits are hard to
break. Of course, the merchant's
only, reason for keeping open after
supper' is to accommodate his cus
tomers . If he . were assured that
his patrons will .suffer no incon
venience from early closing, - Iris
doors would close at 6 -o'clock.
During the last week this matter
has been investigated and the pub
lic has been interviewed concerning
early closing, with the result' that
in nearly every instance the prorxK
sition has been endorsed.- AH who
have purchases to make, say they
find opportunity during the day,
and they are willing that the mer
chant and bis clerks shall cease
their labors when other workers in
the community complete their day's
toil.

in the. Great Eastern Mining Co,
whose valuable claims lie about 33
miles from Cottage Grove. These
claims were located by Douis Hart-
ley and are the pick of the district.
Messrs. Fischer and Lilly brought
back a number of excellent speci
mens from the'; Great Eastern
mines, that are-rich, in gold and
contain some silver and copper.
The country for" miles around is
staked off in claims and as much
work is being done at this time of
year, when the blasts are fired every
evening the many heavy reports
sound like cannonading. The dis
trict is very mountainous. The
two Coryallisites eat their, dinner
one day on a peak 7,000 feet above
the level of the sea. ..
-jri itinerant fakir abused the
charitableness of Corvallis house
wives in a most shame faced man
ner, a few days ago. With a dime,
he purchased a numer of boxes of
needles of a local merchant Then
he began his nefarious business.
He twisted his fingers into fearful
shapes, and contorted his body un
til his appearance was shocking.
Knocking at the door of various
residences, he worked ' upon the
sympathies of the lady of the, house
who responded and had no trouble
j ' -e t . . I
in aisposing oi . nis wares at trom
three to five times the price he paid
for them. His game worked all
right until he came to the door of
the merchant from whom he had
made his morning's purchases.
Notwithstanding his assumed de
formity,-he was recognized as the
brawny . well-formed customer of a
few hours before and told to mak
himself scarce, "
BY A NARBOWl MMJOlNr:
AlJjaay CoUg "Won tb field Mt from
' " - O. A C. fey Ott Point. '
In a field meet full of surprises
and in which the excitement and
interest never abated for; a mo
ment, Albany college defeated
the Agriculturists on the local
field, Friday afternoon, by the
narrow margin otone point. It
was anybody's victory until tbe
final throw in the hammerventt
next to the last on the program.
An incident in connection with
the meet shows by what a slender
thread hung the final result
Considering the great amount of
time consumed by the field events,
an effort was made to ,' 'pull off'
tne races wniie , tnesewere in
progress. . It so happened that
the pole vaulters were contesting
wnen tne 120-yard nurdie was
called. Albany's - best vaulter
was entered for the hurdle
race, and the
visitors offered
to concede the first two places
in the vauit to the farmers;
practically giving away,thermcet
But the . Agrics . handed i
back, by -refusing-, the offer
Bertmau, who failed to start in
the hurdle, entered the vault and
won first place and the meet.
Albany sprung a surprise in
Bergman in the short - sprints.
He is probably the best per-
forer. in the state in - the
100-yard event. But Williams
was as great a surprise to the vis
itors in the 220 and 440, -and
Moores' jump of 20 feet," 11
inches . was ." : also a revelation.
Torbet was conceded the 50-yard
dash and Crates was looked upon
as a first-place man iuVthe broad
jump and and tne hurdles, but
Bergman was not reckoned with
in the dashes and vault.
Williams set the pace so hot for
Bergman in the 220-yard dash
that the latter fell after crossing
the the finish -line and was too
weak to enter any more of the
races. In , tne 440 dash Williams
led Torbet and Coates so far
that they gave np the struggle
Coates won the high hurdles with
and broke the coast record
in the 220 - hurdlee. Torbet
equalled the Northwest record for
50 yards. -'":. .
The' entnes for the Orange
were "iresner and m lar petter
conditioa,for the relay than the
visitors,, and the latter conceded
that event, being highly satisfied
to win if only by a point. 7
