N. . Lilly left Saturday for Roseburg to visit his son Leslie, who lives 15 miles South of there. There is a well founded rumor in Albany, one that is giving . much satisfaction to the people of that burg, that the present, depot of the Southern Pacific Company is be torn down, and a new one erected the opposite side of the track. , The dining room will be left cut, and meals served on the trains in din ing- cars. A Southern 1 Pacific offi cial is responsibb for the story. The China birds which caught Hail Columbia last Thursday, are now getting a rest from dodging the hunters and their dog?, owing to the rainy, spell riow' on. - But we understand that thi boys who had courage enough to face the in clement weather, had good success, as a pheasant is stupid when wet, consequently making it easy for the hunters to get c'o3e to them. Prof. W. W. Rosebrau);h, former ly a member of the faculty of Philomath Cullfge, has been up- pointed a -mem er of tha county board of Examiners for Benton County by Supt. Denman.

' A Noon-Day Blaze Just as the town clock ye6trd.ijr had finished striking the noon hour fire alarm was turned in The causa proved to.bhe prune dryrr, near the river, and before the fir-; men could reich the scene, the fla nes had completely gutted, the building, which contained over 100 bushel of prunes, "all of which, with the exceptioq of a few on top of the pile, will b; saved.. The only plausible' cause of the fire is that, owing to the old, damp day, it re- uired'a much , gteater he.it to do the drying and the fire was larger than they thought, consequently catching te woodwork, The ui'ding, belonging t Henry Stone, was a email f wo jden etr ucture, hence, the loss is not large.

C. is gradually assuming a football aspect, It is too early to predict what will be the chance of the Agricultural College team in car rying off the championship. All of the old men have not yet ar rived, but enough are back to in sure at least a good team. Some new material is evident and may bring forth some surprises among them. Vanderhellen is the most promising. He is a six-footer with a good leg and can punt the ball fifty yards with ease,. Jack son is an old O. A. C. boy, but new to the football gridiron and if strength and weight count for anything will make a strong bid for guard. Nothing but light work has been attempted so far, as the 'first game is still three weeks on. Next week will find the squad working hard and some scrim mage work woik will be done. Bert Pilkington, "the captain, is a Hard worker and keens his men enthused and will be a world of strength to his team,: if his ankles will carry him ' through the season. The back field is well cared for in Williams, Root and Pilkington. The line is heavy but unexperienced, which is a fault that time and practice alone can remedy. Rhinehart is a good man at quarter, but rather light, but can handle the ball and team in good .style. , The coach is pleased with the outlook, but realizes the team has plenty of haidwork ahead. If signs can be relied upon Corvallis wiM have the strongest team in years. More Bogus Land Schemes. It is believed here that . an effort to defraud Seattle people by the bogus timber land method with Benton county as the, scene of operations, has just been thwarted. The plan, says the Oregonian of October i, is ap parentiy tne same as that prac ticed upon Portlanders last Fall by Xocator Stone. A few days ago, a business man. from Seattle and a surveyor' from the same city arrived in Corvallis and went at once to the county clerk's office, where : they examined maps for the- purpose of locating certain alleged timber lands with in "four hours' drive of town. The lands were said to lie in a southwesterly direction, : which incidentally," is the direction in which Locator Stone took his Portland victims. At the clerk's office the visit ors were told that there were no available timber lands in the re gion referred to. The said a locator; had proposed to locate a party of 1 8 of them on lands cov ered with , valuable timber. As all the timber lands in the county that are of value we e taken lone ago, the visitors concluded that there was a possibility of fraud in the venture,' and they took the next train for home, without vis iting the sections in which it was represented to them that the 1 8 quarter sections were to be had. ; C. & E. Preparing to Build. A special to the Oregonian from Bend, Dated September 30, says: W. A. Brandebury, the Albany lumber dealer, who has come across the - mountains to look after interests in this region, says there is -every evidence along the line of the Corvallis & East era pf preparations for extending the road to Bend. . Four saw mills are engaged in turning but railroad ' ties, X which are tur khaSed by the Corvallis & East ern and piled ; along the ; track for miles. -The mills report that they have sawed jnore of these ties in the past six months than in six years before and but few have been shipped out to market. The roadbed of the . Corvallis & Eastern has long been graded for axdistance of 14 mile's east of the crest, of the Cascades and the short tunnel there .necessary has been bored half way through the backbone. ; The Corvallis & Eastern was mortgaged five years ago for something like $2 ,000, OOO, but the bonds were never; issued. It is said that every- i thing is redy for an advance on short notice. . Some ot the officials of the company have been making in vestments in the vicinity of the survey on this side of the moun tains, which is regarded signficant. . as Regular sessions in the Corvallis Busiiief.3 College opened yesterday at 3 p. no. ..
