Mirage Near Silverton. On Howell Prairie, a few miles from this city, may be seen some thing of a phenomenon, which is called a mirage, an optical illu sion arising from the unequal aenai reiracuou wnicn causes re mote objects to seem double, as if reflected in a mirror or body ol water. This we understand was dis covered many years ago, but few people are aware of the fact that such conditions really exist in that vicinity, and few have taken the pains to investigate. A. Whit lock's attention was attracted by the phenomenal conditions while riding along the road recently, and since having called attention to the matter quite a little inter est has been aroused.

To the Ladies of Corvallis: Greeting: The county court has appointed me to assist in col lecting an exhibit of Benton county products for the Lewis and Clark Fair. It is the wish of the court to have the exhibit pre pared this year, so it can .be shown at the state fair in Sep tember," and at the National : Grange in November - as well as at the great lair next year. . Now it seems to me that the preparation of fruits, jellies, etc.. should be considered ".woman's work" as well as needle work, painting and other fancy articles. In order to get together, talk it over and try to decide what can be done, I ask the ladies of Corvallis and vicinity to meet at the Court House on Saturday, June 25, at 2 :30 p. m. to discuss the matter. I especially desire the co-operation ol the ladies of the Lewis and Clark Club, the Grange and all other societies whose objecfis the; advancement of our county and city. Let us make a great effort to have our county take an important place among the. counties of our state at all these fairs. Mary Harris Whitby. After Crefield's Scalp. The omcers ot Uorvailis are determined to have Joshua Cre field. Nobody who cares to tell seems to know just where he is, but there is a strong suspicion that he is not very far away. Perhaps he has completely dis appeared and his victims are left to care for themselves. Lest public interest should wane in the matter a substantial increase has been added to the re ward offered for his capture. Four hundred dollars is the sum now offered for Crefield, who is 30 years of age, light hair, carrying a bible, and talking brokenly in Swedish. If he is near Corvallis his followers should be closely shadowed by the offi cers. If he is at a distance the federal autHoritieg should mark and examine all mail matter pass ing between interested pxrties. The county sheriff is doing a wise thing in flooding the coun try with Crefield's likeness,, and substantial reward coupled with a thorough advertisement ol this kind will at least drive him from the haunts of civilized man. A band of religious zealots has appeared near Chicago, says an exchange, very similar to. the Oregon Holy Rollers, the women going with unkempt hair and the men with uncombed beards. The New Firm.
