(KC SE 0D TEAM DEfcAKD.
Oo Down Eefore ecoid Team of
University of Oregon.
The husky farmer boys from
, Corvallis went down in ga'lant
defeat before the second team of
the University of Oregon. 6at-
' urday by a score of 8 to 5.
Both teams lacked defensive
work, while the offensive work
of both was very gcod, U. of O.
having a little thebest of it.
The U. of O. scored thvii
touchdown a few minutes after
the opening of the game, and
from that on it looked as th.mgh
the game was an easy mark, but
alas! that farm?r sprinter Stimp
son on the first down after the
kick off, secured the ball on the
85-yard line and ran the length
ot the field with the pack at his
heels for a touchdown. The fact
could hardly be realized by the
rooters, and the score was made
by a streak of luck. In the second
half the varsity found the weak
poi -K.s anci worked that line like
a machine, netting from 5 to 15
yards at a clip. From the kick
oft the varsity backs took the
ball three successive times for 7
yards apiece, followed soon after
by a 15-yard run by Holmes.
On a fumble the OAC got the
ball and the full fell back to
baost the pigskin, but alas! some
m in on the farmers' side blocked
tie kick, the ball rolling behind
tue goal posts, vwhere an OaC
man lell on it. Thus U. of O.
received two more points.
The b-.st men on the OAC
team were the quarter and the
left half, while on the U of O
team every man was a star, Kuy
kendall and Holmes showing up
exceptionally well.
The game was worth the ad
mission price, and everything
was done on the square, the
officials being very impartial.

Sorosis Girls as Entertainers.
One of the most pleasant Hal
lowe'en parties was that given
by the Sorosis girls, their guests
being the young men of the
Amicitian society. The decora
tions were very unique, con
sisting of autumn leaves, corn
stalks, pumpkins and fruit of
various kinds. A row of bright
red apples were placed around
the wainscot ting of the rooms,
while a portiene of the same was
suspended in the doorway lead
ing to the dining-room, in the
midst of which hung a horseshoe.
Those who accomplished the task
of throwing a ball thrice through
the . horseshoe were considered
lucky, indeed. The decorations
of the tables were simplv grand,
as one young man expressed it,
"It looked like a regular harvest
testival." 'The tables were well
lighted with candles. At each
plate was a small Jack-o-lantern
made of an apple, while through
out the rooms pumpkins did ser
vice as such. Refreshments con
sisted of fruit salad with whipped
cream and sandwiches of white
and brown bread and nuts and
cream. Candies, nuts and fruits
were placed in large dishes made
of pumpkins. The cracking of
the nuts afforded much delight, as
they seemed to be of a peculiar
kind, revealing the fate of the
owner. At each plate was placed
a blank card which, when placed
over a burning candle brought
forth in brown letters wonderful
prophecies. The prophecies had
been previously written upon
with milk by the spooks. The
evening was enlivened by several
vocal selections by Miss Bertha
Williams and Miss Margaret
Weveley presided at the piano
at various intervals throughout
the evening. A genuine Vir
ginia Reel, led by Mr. and Mrs. :
B. W. Johnson, was not the least
enjoyable feature of the occasion.

The sad intelligence reache:
th's city ot the sudd-n death of
M Iy wr nee Wilhelm, wh -died
ar the home of her mrents,
Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Read in
Lebanon. Saturday morning at
4 o'clock .
Mrs. Wilhelm's maiden name
was Florence Read, and s;ic
formerly lived at Mo roe, where
she has many devo'ed friends
who mourn her sudden pssin.'
away. in 1090 she was united
in marriageto Mr. Lawrence Wil
helm, and was a devoted wifeauc
mother. She is survived by her
husband aud three children, the
youngest oeing about two weeks
old.
Truly it often seems true that
, 'the ool and beautiful die
young," Mrs. Wilhelm was but
2-1 vcar's or a??, vet it the nnr-
ation'of humau life may be ex -
piesseci ov tne number ot mend
won and lefc t i mourn. Mrs. Wil-
helm's brief earthly existence was
equal to double her years
Her funeral was held Monday
morning at St. Mary's Catholic
church at Monroe, Rev. Father
Springer, of Corvallis. officiating.
Followed by a, large concourse
of surviving and sympathizing
friends, her remains were laid to
rest in the Monroe Catholic ceme
tery, there to await the day of
promised resurrection.
The Fatal Wedding.
Nvxt Friday eeeuing, Nov. 4
the patrons of the Opera House
will have a pleasant surprise in
store for themselves, when the
big New York melodrama, "The
Fatal Wedding" ,will play an en
gagement at (JorvBllis. The plot
is a powerful one, and deals with
the adventures of a scheming
woman, who, assisted by a male
accomplice, ventures the ruin of
a happy family, and the seperat-
lon ot a wife from husband and
children, in order that she can
contract a marriage with the hus
band and thereby gain hiB fortune
She is prevented from doing this,
however, by ' the timely interfer
ence of two characters, a French
man and an Irish servant woman
who in their respective parts
make no end of amusement tor
the audience. An unusually
strong cast will interpret the play
and the scenic effects are the
most realistic ever attempted in
melodrama. One scene in particu
lar, that of the famous Palisades
at night, showing the counter
feiter's deu, gives a great effect,
and with the many revolving
scenes go to make up as strong a
scenic production as has yet been
witnessed in this city.
The inventer of the new Ameri
cau gun is a man named J. Ham
nton Brown, though the work of
constructing this particular six-
inch experimental piece is in
charge of Colonel John M. In
galls, retired U. S. A., an artil
lerist of high standing and repu
tation. Despite the incredulity
of cotemporary gun-builders. Col
onel Ingalls and officers with him
assert that this six-inch gun will
throw thirty miles a proiectile
weighing 109 pounds which will
pierce a six-incn steel target.
A ten-inch gun of this construc
tion, with a powder chamber 01
14,259 cubic inches and using
300 pounds of smokeless powder,
would, hurl a six-hundred projec
tile a distance of fifty-nine miles.
Increasing this ratio, a sixteen
inch gun would have an extreme
range of more than one hundred
miles, and equipped with such
coast-defense rifles, England and
France could shell each other
across the Channel. New Fight f

Serious Accident.
Saturday morning, James Her
ron while on his way to Corval
lis was struck in the head by a
stray 22 calibre rifle bullet. The
miniature ball penetrated the hat
band and scalp but flatteued
when it struck the skull and de
viated in itscourse travelling par
tially around the head beneath
the scalp and lodged near the
temple. The ball came from a
rifle in the hands of two young
Corvallis boys who were out
hunting and did not know that
Mr. Herron was near. Mr. Her-
ron was riding along in his wagon
when he was struck and did ne t
see the boys nor hear the report
of the gun, but he explains that
he suddenly felt a bump on the
head as though struck with a
club. - A moment later the blood
began to stream down his face
and he hurried to town a mile
distant where a physician remov-
ed the bullet and dressed the
wound. The boy when ques
tioned did not " know that any
harm had been done which was
undoubtedly true. Mr. Herron
is a prominent farmer living south
of here and the boys belong to
prominent Corvallis families. The
boys had never been permitted to
go hunting and were out at the
time without thfe knowledge of
their parents. The aflair is deep
ly regretted and relief is felt that
the accident did not result more
seriously.
Artisans' Reception.
Thursday evening the United
Artisans of Corvallis, tendered a
reception to the Supreme Master
of the order in the United States,
J. W. Hudson.
J. Fred Yates presided, and
after a short literary program
consisting of several recitations
and music by the Woodcock
Irvine orchestra had been render
ed, he introduced Supreme Master
Artisan Hudson, who gave a very
patriotic and inspiring address,
and a succint history ot the or
ganization, purposes and rapid
growth of the order, which was
organized in Portland, about ten
years ago by two brothers, F. I.
and C. W. McKenna. It has had
a wonderful growth and has been
firmly established in nearly every
state and in several foreign
coujn tries.
At the close of the address, all
present sat down to a bountiful
supply of refreshments, and the
remainder of the evening was de
voted to the offices of good
fellowship.
Price of Hops.
Capt. George Pope, of Hub
bard, well known to many of the
Gazette's patrons as one of Or
egon's most successful hop-growers
predicts that the price of hops
will reach 50 cents in a short
time. He says the price now paid
in England for Oregon hops is
equivalent to 38 cents per pound
as the local price paid here in
Oregon.
Many growers are holding
their bops and if Capt. Pope is
right they will yet realize better
prices.
Misses Mary Nolan and Mibel
Davis entertained eighteen guests
at a delightful dinner given at
the Nolan home on Friday even
ing. The rooms were tastefully
decorated, some -)f the. devices
being' both unique in conception
and beautiful in ' effect. Pump
kin, shells in which various
figures were cot were used as
light shades. Apples from which
the inside had been removed
were also utilized for the same
purpose and were placed at each
place at the table. The effect
was beautiful and just en ugh of
of the wierd to suggest the near
ness of Hallowe'en.
