I
The Fascinating Frisco.
Editor Gazette. ban Francisco is
larger than Corvallis. Mind! I lay no
claim to original discovery in making
this assertion, but it's true and serves
as an introduction for some rambling re
marks. The city seems satisfied with
its present size , so far as area is concern
ed, and is busying itself with improve
meut rather than enlargement. And
theae is room for improvement. And
there is room for enlargement. There
are tumble-down, one-story wooden
shacks even in the business center on
Market street, that are worse in looks
than the buildings that went up in smoke
in that Sunday afternoon blaze in Cor
vallis, a few weeks ago. But these are
being replaced by brick and stone
structures. One cannot go two squares
in any direction on any of a dozen
streets on either side of Market, without
finding a business block ia course of
construction, enlargement or improve'
ment. New pavements are being con
structed, and cobole stones are being
replaced witti asphault.
It is surprising the number of Oregon-
who find their way to this city. I never
overlook the opportunity to impress up
on a new acquaintance that the Willa
mette Valley has California faded to a
ghostly paleness whea it comes to the
matter ot scenery and natural resources.
Aud in three cases out of five my new
found friends have endorsed my conten
tion and informed me that they, also,
were from Oregon.
George Clark, formerly foreman of the
printing office at the O. A. C. is here.
He was married in Oakland about three
months ago. Shortly after taking this
important step, he moved to this city and
is now employed in a laundry on Mission
street.
Mr. and Mrs. Mort Spongier have taken
up their residence in Oakland, where the
former has an excellent position as a
draughtsman.
I met a Miss Whitney, of Portland, a
few evenings ago. Old Corvallisites
may remember her and her brother, Ed.
They attended the Agricultural College,
before that institution was removed to
its present site.

Raymond Henkle came in from Cor
vallis the other day and we lunched to
gether. Raymond is casting about for a
good business location, and is now in
San Jose. It is a safe wager that he will
terminate his search by deciding to re
main in San Francisco. No one who
has lived here long seems to be satisfied
elsewhere. Old "Frisco'' has a fascina
tion all her own. She is prodigal in her
generosity, and her devotees are ever
finding some new charm. Let San Fran
cisco know a thing is good, and she will
have it or something better. The cost
is never taken into consideration This
spirit of liberality pervades the. atmos
phere, manifests itself in a thousand
ways. There is enough electricity burn
ed on Market street in a single night to
light Corvallis for a hundred years. (If
that statement sounds extravagant, it is
proof that I am not immune.) The ef
fect of themany colored lights is dazzling
and beautiful. The stores are brilliantly
illuminated. The fronts of buildings are
ablaze with signs, the letters on which
are formed of red, green, blue or White
globes of light, some revolving, some
swinging and others alternating in colors
High in the air, glowing from the top of
some sky-scraper, letters of fire seem
hanging from the sky? while the bulls
eyes on the street cars throw their search
ing rays along the ground. Who can
see 'Fricco after night, and not want - to
be a moth around her flame?
There are but twenty-five letter in the
alphabet of a San Francisan: "R" is
eliminated. To be sure, they say "ah,"
here, when "r" is intended; but "all" is
only a sound of "a". This is not said
in adverse criticism. One grows to like
the practice. I find myself becoming
susceptable. "I feel suah that I shall
succumb befoah the wintah is ovah.'

The Margarita Fischer Company,
Miss Margarita Fischer, the "16 year
old favorite," and her own Metropolitan
Company who will appear at the Cor
vallis Opera House for a season of two
nights, commencing Monday, October
5, comes to ns highly 'recommended.
The well balanced company of plivere
have astonished every one by the he
nominal manner in which they have at
tracted the public attention this eeaeon.
Their presentations of high class reper
toire being one of the many reasons for
their unbounded popularity.
The gentle realism displayed in the
characters of the comedies and dramas
and the truthful manner in which they
are portrayed on the stage appeal irre
sistibly to yonng and old alike. One
must be the most hardened cynic to wit
nees any of these performances and not
feel that the human emotions have been
stirred.
There will be new and funny special
ties between acts, doing away with those
long waits and delays to which one is so
accustomed.
They carry their own uniformed band
and orchestra, giving a street parade and
concert daily during their engagement.
Admission 50, 35 and 25 cents. Reserved
seats now on Bale at Graham & Worth

HENRY BRIER CURED.
Another Demonstration of Dr.
Darrin's Skill.
Mr. Henry Bruer, well known to many
of our readers, and now an employe in
the Reform School, has been cured by
Dr. Darrin of deafness and discharging
ears of ten years' standing.
Every day the doctor performs mar
velous cures in his office in Albany, and
many of his patients are men and women
of prominence, with names well known
throughout the state. Judges, lawyers,
ministers of the gospel, prominent offi
cials and others all bear witness as to
his knowledge of Nature's great, but lit
tle understood force, electricity. Dr.
Darrin's many remarkable cures fully
demonstrate the fact that he has mas
tered the secrets of electricity in the
treatment of disease, and that he pos
sesses an exceptional knowledge of the
curative properties of medicines.
Toe fact that be has successfully
treated a well-known resident of this
section, will influence other ailing per
sone hereabouts in "the doctor's favor.
