A mistake crept into our columns

Ellen Long, and not Fred Elliott
and Ada Elliot, as we stated. The

and as the two cases were recorded
on the same page at the clerk's
office, by a mistake the reporter
copied the wrong names when tak
ing the particulars in the divorce
case,

Finest Laboratory on the Coast
Now Being Added.
One of the finest chemical lab
oratories on the coast is now in
process of constructing in the
Agricultural Hall, the entire
south half of the first floor being
given over to this purpose.
The main laboratory contains
six long desks, with places for 96
students, and also a desk on a
platform for the instructor. The
tops of these desks are made of
California redwood, two inches
thick. This wood has twice been
treated with each of two preserv
ing solutions, and now are receiv
ing a coat of linseed oil. after
which they will be covered with
parafine wax, making the wood
almost impervious to the action
of chemicals. Each student is
provided with a locker and key,
where he may keep all of his ap
paratus, consisting of test-tubes,
beakers, etc., while on top of the
desks are placed shelves for the
smaller bottles of chemicals.
Situated about the room are
shelves for the more bulky bot
tles of reagents. One especial
convenience of this laboratory is
a series of circular porcelain sinks
or basins placed every four feet
along the middle of desks, giving
one basin to every four workers.
Along the north side of the room
is placed a loner glass cabinet
containing "hoods" for carrying.
oft gases. All experiments liable
to generate gases of an obnoxious
nature are performed in this
cabinet -
Opening off the main room are j
two smaller ones in which all of
the chemical supplies are stored,
one for the main laboratory and
one for the station laboratory.
The station laboratory is situated j
on the second floor of the build
ing, and is furnished similar to I
the Students' laboratory, except
in size, having dishes for only
24 workers. . -
It is said by those who have
seen the laboratories of Berkeley
and Cornell, that thev are no
larger nor better equipped than
those of O. A. C,
DEATH OF B. P. CARDWELL
An Old Corvallis Citizen
Passes
Away in ' Portland
Byron P. Card well, an- Oregon
)ioneer of 1852, and one of Port
and's most widely knownciti
zens, died at his home at 395
Fourth street, at 1:15 o'clock
Thursday afternoon. In Augus t
he was stricken with heart
trouble, which resulted in his
death. He was born in Spring
field, 111., March 3, 1832 and
was the son of Wm. Lee and
Mary Ann Biddle Cardwefl.
At the age of 20 he accom
panied his parent to Oregon, driv
ing his own ox - team across the
plains, and arriving at Marysville,
now known as Corvallis, on Oc
tober 8, 1852. The family took
up donation land claims on what
is now called Card well Hill, and
Byron Card well raised blooded
horses and cattle in partnership
with his uncle, the late Hamil
ton Campbell. With the late W.
B. Carter, formerly editor of the
Gazette, he drove a large pack
string of mules between Corval
lis, Yreka, Cal., and Jacksonville,
Or., for several years. In 1856
he was married to Miss Abbie M.
Clarke. In 1858 he moved to
Portland and formed a copartner
ship with Joseph Buchtel in the
photograh business, which con
tinued until he was appointed a
Deputy Collector ot "Internal
Revenue by President Lincoln
about 1861; which position he
held for 21 years.
He was a life-long republican,
and an earnest worker for the
party's success. During Gover
nor Moody's administration he
was appointed Police Commis
sioner for Portland, and by suc
cessive re-elections by the people
remained as such for nine years.
In 1894 he was elected a member
of the state legislature. At the
last election he was compelled by
a committee of citizens to accept
the seat in the city council for
the Fifth Ward.
His religion was the golden
rule, and it is doubtful if he had
an enemy 1 on earth. He was a
man of the strictest business in
tegrity, and his "word was as
good as his bond." 4
He is survived by his wife and
his son, Dr. Herbert W. ; by three
brothers, Dr. James R. and Chas.
EL, of this city, and Richard H.
Cardwell of San Francisco, and
by two sisters, Mrs. Olena M.
Murray, and Mrs. Martha A.
Dalton. The late Dr. William
B. Cardwell and the late Mrs.
Geo. E. Cole were his brother
aad sister. A daughter Alice,
died in 1863.

ABE LOGIN ACQUITTED
Judge Scores Jury for Returning
Such a Verdict.
The Jury in the case of Abe
Logan, the Indian accused of
murdering TJ. S. Grant, upon the
Siletz reservation, dumbfounded
the court and everyone who heard
the . evidence, in the case by re
turning a verdict of not guilty
yesterday morning. Judge Bell
inger took occasion to express his
surprise at the outcome, and also
to administer a gentle scoring to
the jury for returning such a de
cision. He then scored the In
dian, and told him that he was
guilty of implication in the crime
even though he had been declar
ed innocent by the jury. The
judge declared that the jury was
influenced in coming ' to the de
cision it did by pity for the wife
and children of the defendant.
When the verdict was an
nounced in; the courtroom an
audible expression of disapproval
of the result went over the entire
audience. To those who had
listened to the evidence against
both men accused of the crime,
it seemed a traversity upon jus
tice that Logan should be set free
and Martin, against whom there
was less substantial evidence,
should have to serve time for
manslaughter.
After listening to the verdict
the judge turned to the jury and
said:
"This has been a failure of jus
tice. Out ot respect and feelieg
for the wife and little ones of this
defendant, you have been led to
acquit. Such a verdict as this
must result disastrously to all
residents of the Siletz reserva
tion." To the acquitted prisoner he
addressed these words:
"Logan you are acquitted; but
think you are a bad man and
that you killed Grant. The iurv
gave you the benefit of a reason
able doubt, but had I been on the
jury I would at least have
brought in . a verdict of man
slaughter. The blood of. Grant
is on your hands, and I give you
tair warning that your escape
from the punishment that you no
doubt deserve, does not argue that
you would go free a second time,
and I advise you to keep out of
this court."
The displeasure of the Indians
at the result of Martin's trial was
increased by the result ofAogan's.
They did' not Ifiesi&te'tl express
it, as their opinion that there had
been a slip in justice somewhere,
and that it was the height of in
justice to convict Martin upon the
weak testimony against him, and
allow a man against whom the
strongest evidence was introduced
to go free. By some of the Fed
eral officials, trouble is looked for
among the Red . Men as a result
of the acquittal of Logan. He
is not liked by other residents of
the reservation, it is stated, and
one government fficer said that
he would not be the least sur
prised if Logan were killed by
the Indians in revenge. The ex
pressed belief among the Indians
who have been m attendance
upon the trial is that Logan is
the guilty man, and that he killed
Grant himself and attempted to
lay the crime at Martin's door to
shield himself. Logan, it is said,
bears a bad reputation upon the
reservation, and the other Indians
do not like him. Oregonian.

HONOR IS UNCLAIMED'
Oregonian Says Corvallis Has the
Most Right to Championship.
In the matter of college foot
ball championship in the West
there is more of a muddle than
ever, and as things now 'stand it
is hardly possible that any pre
sumptuous eleven will claim the
honors on the comparative show
ings that have been made. Wash
ington would like to claim the
championship, but cannot con-?
sistently do so. For instance, 1
Washington defeated Corvallis 1
earlier in the season, 5 to o. Ne
vada tied with Stanford and beat
Berkeley, but was in turn de
feated by Washington, 2 to o;
Puget Sound, 10 to o, and Cor
vallis, 15 to o. Here we have a
case of Washington beating Neva
da by a smaller score than ti e
Oregon farmers, who previously
went down before the men frcm
the North. Truly there is little
use ot a "dope' dook wnen it
comes' to estimating anything re
garding football. One game is
hardly sufficient to determine the
merits of any two teams. Tele
gram. The Oregonian in speaking of
the Nevada team's career, says:
"Nevada had taken a slump,
possibly not before the Seattle
game, but certainly since then.
At all events, after their career
in the Northwest, if any team is
to claim the Coast championship
it is Corvallis, and that team has
not had the presumption to claim
the honors. The only conclu
sion is that there is no champion
ship on the Coast this year."
If the footqall season was now
beginning instead of having end
ed, the matter of settling the
Coast championship would be an
easy matter. Corvallis ended
the season in such a whirlwind
style that it could have claimed
the Coast championship and
backed up her claim by a clear
string of victories.
