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.

TO PIT OUT GOOD TEAM.
O. A. C. Football Aggregation Will
Have Strong Line-up.
The football team of O. A. 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. .
