Har ris' residence. The Ladies' Missionary-Tea at the home of Mrs. J. H. Harris on Wednesday af oeri oon was largely attended and very successful. An attractive program was presented after which some entertaining talks and discussions on the subject of missions was entered into by Miss Hatch, Mrs. Griswold, of Albany, Mrs. Porter, of Brownsville and others. Dainty refreshments were served. The attendance was be tween fifty and sixty and all were interested in the proceedings. Tuesday while the pupils of the public school were having their usual recess, little Noma Stewart, a child of Lafe Stewart, who lives in the northern part-ot town, re ceived injuries which was feared for tiuje might be serious. It appears that some of the girls seized upon the boys' faotball. Immediately there was a wild scramble for the ball in which a large number of the pupils participated.' In the headlong rush, Noma, who is but 11 years old, ,in some manner was thrown or possib'y fell down, and was stepped upoa by small chil dren. One of her limbs was uery much bruised and her head receiv ed several minor contusions. The child is rather delicate and the shock and the pain, of the bruises caused her to faint. She was cared for by teachers and schoolmates until one of the boys procured a buggy and she was conveyed home. Fortunately her injuries were found to be slight and she .expects to be in school, again soon. She is a bright and ambitious pupil and her teacher, Miss Kyle, and her class mates greatly esteem her and re joice that she escaped serious in jury.

Lieutenant Quinlan received a communication yesterday from the secretary of the war depart ment at Washington, authorizing t,: j: ;jj i m?j. r mm lu uiviueu tne military iorces at the Oregon Agricultural Col lege into two battalions of three companies each. This division will place the Corvallis school on an equal footing with the best military schools in the United States. There there are already four companies above the regu lar army requirements." This new order gives . Mr. Quinlan authority also to appoint an extra major and staff. The names of the new officers will probably be announced in a few days. From now on the instruction along military lines in OAC will be almost precisely that of the regular army service. A hospital corps will be organized within the next few days to give, practi cal instruction in that line! This instruction will include demon strations in first aid to wounded, drowning, faintness, etc. Lect ures will also be giveu on mili tary hygiene, taking up the sub ject or proper food, water, cloth ing, care of hands, hair and feet. Beginning with next month the ceremony of mounting guard with band will commence and continue throughout the year. Leading hotei in Corvaiiis. Newly furnished with rnorJern". conveni ences.

Barney Casterline, famous the country over as a temperer of edge tools has bean living at Bellfountain this summer but will move to Portland Tn the near future, where he will open a shop and seek ' to dispose of some of his patents. He has just sold one of his patents, a con trivance : for regulating the heat of a room, for which he received sum of money. Casterline is all right and there fis no discounting his ability v As a past master in the art of welding and temper ing he has no equal on the Pacific Coast, if not in America.. Dur ing the summer he has beenri receiving edge tools from differ ent parts of the United States and Canada from persons who have heard of him and wish to test his ability. Talk with Casterline about the lost art of tempering copper and he will show you tempered . cop per equal to the best the ancients produced that crumbles under the hammer like other tempered metals. Casterline makes and tempers steel equal to the famous Damascus blade of old. He takes a common pen knife and so tempers it that it whittles iron and will cut a hair without' re- sharpenjng. A common table knife is tempered and sharpened and drawn fifty times across a stone, " iron or any other hard surface and will afterwards shave the back of the hand. The secret of it all, of course lies in the chemical solution in which" he immerses his metals. He has three of these solutions, but the price he asks for them puts them beyond the reach of ordinary mortals and he will probably not reali e much out of , his discoveries until he organizes stock companies or sells on the royality plan. s That Casterline is a .genius there is no doubt and his friends wish to see him succeed.
