The OAC boys were extreme
ly jjurbilant over the news which
reached them from time to time
from Seattle where their chosen
eleven, led by Bert Pilkington
were trying conclusions with the
University of Washington. When
the news of the splendid victory
' won by the OAC's came the air
was made vibrant with the col
lege yell, and "Oid . Glory' ' was
iflung to the breeze from the col
lege flagstaff.
We do not have the report ef
the gam in detail, and we are
indebted to Suudaj's . Oregouian
for t:;e following:
Tiie Oregon Agricultural Col
lege fonibili eleven administered
a bt.-vt.TC auJ decisive defeat to the
TJnivtrjity of Washington team
this afternoon, winning a scare
of 26 to 5. The Wcbfooters "put
up one of the fastest and best
games oi loot ball ever seen in
Seattle. Their victory was due,
however, in no small part to the
Washington eleven failing to play
., any kiud of championship ball.
r In less thau 25 minutes the
visitors rolled up a scoie of 21,
and during that time had tle local
boys completely at their mercy.
During the second half the Wash
ington boys begau to play the
game, of which they were capa-

The Agricultural College cross
ed the line through a fake play,
while the University of 'Wash-
ingtoti pusnea tae ban over'D a
series of line bucks and end runs.
Shaw, one of Washington's new
halfbacks, carried the ball behind
the Oregon goal line for the only
time during the game by .a brilli-
ant run of 20 yards round right
end. .
The Oregon Agricultn-ral Col
lege team proved to be much
heavier than Washington and
very nearly as last. The inter
ference of Oregon's badks was
splendid for so early in the sea
son, and although their defensive
work was not up to the offensive,
still it was very good. It was
the opinion of many of the critics
who attended the game that the
visiting college could have --stood
up well against any aggregation
on the Coast today.
While the weather was rainy,
the giidiron was iu excellent
shape and gave each team an op
portunity to play its best football.
Coach Steckle and Captain Pilk
ington are more than pleased
with the showing made and are
Confident that they have a loag
list of victories ahead of them.
The classes at the college were
dismissed ten minutes earlier than
usual, yesterday morning, to en-;
able the whole body of students!
to meet their returning victorious
team at the railroad station.

of his conqueiin' legions'" ever
received a n-re ntiuisiatic ovr
tiou than the bovs, and girls, too,
gave to Cap'.ain Jiert Pilkington
and hk men.
The students headed by their
cadet fcand escorted the victors
through the principal streets,
while cheers, and the college yell,
set the very leaves of the shade
trees in vibration. v
The procession finally halted at
Hotel Corvallis, and the triumph
ant eleven were fairly carried to.
the dining room, while host Ham-
' mej was ordered to fill them up
with the best in his house regard
less of consequences.
The boys have just cause to
feel proud of their victory for it
was won over one of the best!
teams in the Northwest, especial
ly strong in quick, active play.
Corvallisites, too, are proud of
our college team tor in all games '
iu which it has participated re-
. pons comes of their clean, tar
manly playing and their uniform
ly gentlemanly conduct
' The boys speak in unstinted
praise of the competing, club and
of the kind treatment they re-
ceived from the people of Stattle
during tneir stay
The despised little college at
Corvsllis does much more than
play honest and winning games
of football. Each student just
as earnestly and enthusiastically
engages iu his studies. The suc
cess which comes to its graduates
bears witness to the truth of this.
Signs of Prosperity.
The Corvallis Saw Mill is the
set of wonderful activity which
telis in unmistakable terms of
the growth and development of
our city.
For three weeks the mill has
been running ni-ht and day
woiking two shift-s of men. This
was made necessaty by the num
ber of rush .orders received, and ,
the necessity of clearing up the
loose logs ill tae immense rait,
lying in the river oHvft-en the
mouth of Mary; river and the
county ferry. This raft com
prised millions of feet. The
portion of it in Marys river is he-
lieved to
pro bible
be secure from anv
danger by hi
another lot
'ii water
ot three
millions of feefc at Boouvsile.
This last is very valuable timber
costing $10,030.
The company employs 60 men
and five teams. The scale of
wages paid runs trom $1.65 per
Xoay up to $150 per month, and
aggregates upward of $125 per
day.
Much of the,, product of the
mill is for itsimediale use in Cor
vallis and vicinity, being required
in buildings now in process of
construction.
Four teatsis are kept busy de
livering this material and one
hauling slab wood for fuel.
But for a break in the .feeding
machinery the loose logs ia the
river would have been disposed
of by Saturday evening. Two
or three days' work, however,
will secure these, and enable, the
company tocatch up its delayed
orders.
Corvallis is not just the "sleepy
place" casual observers .end
strangers imagine it to be.
Stabbing Affray.
About Sijo Friday evening .an
altercation occurred between Geo.
Avery and a .young man named
Lytle, whose home is near Philo
math. It appears that the men met et
the Fierstien house, where some
sort of difference arose between
the two. They shortly left the
house passing out by the way of
they alley. Just as they reach
ed the street at the Cathey cor
ner, George, resenting some re
mark made by Lytle, drew a
knife and struck Jiiin in the right
breast, inflicting a wound that
jnay become serious.
Chief of Police .Lane a'noeared
.ou the scene and took Avery into
custody, while the wounded man
was tacen toUr. Latney's resi
dence. The Dr. found -a clean knife
cut penetrating through into the
lung cavity. He thinks the lung
proper was not reached, but can
not determine the fact. The
danger is that inflammation or the
pleura may supervene, otherwise
he does not regard the wound as
serious.
It is needless to say that the
men were under the influence of
liquor.
