Newspaper Page TextHE CORVALUS GAZETTE TCESOAYS AND FRIDAYS, SAFE REVISION. It would appear that the Presi dent will call congress in extra ' session on tho 4th of next March mainly to revise the schedules of the tariff. This cannot be done at the short session of the present congress but may properly pass over to the new congress, when the newly-elected members will take seats, and the majority of the party will be much increased. If an extra session is not con vened the work of revision must await the. regular first session of the new congress, a year dis tant. Whether revision shall be made at a special session or other wise, the tariff will be revised, protection will not be sacrificed and business will not be dis turbed. These things are among the purposes of the party. The people recognized and approved of them and know that no such "measure of iniquity and dis honor" as the Wilson and Gor man tarriff will be enacted. The American workman will continue to carry a well-filled dinner-pail. Something should be done by the city fathers to prevent the in discriminate use of 22-rifles in the hands of inexperienced boys. Just last week, one evening while two men were standing on the XSentou side of the ferry, zip came a bullet and struck a boat a few feet away. Three boys -standing on the boom a short dis tance down the river were the guilty parties and fully ten shots were fired, the bullets glancing on the water when whizzing by, much to the discomfort of the ferrvtnan aud others standing by. What makes the case exceeding ly agravating is that the boys paid no lueu when warned to -cease shooi.no . A half a dozeu cases of care lessness with thee apparently harmless but nevertheless danger ous weapons have occured dur ing the mi turner and people are becoming tired, and measures should be taken at once looking to the correction of the abuse. The New Yoik building at the Lewis and Clark Centennial will cost 20,000, and the state will spend au additional sum of $15, 000 for the collection of a suita ble exhibit to be placed in the building. Massachusetts will spend in all $30,000, of which 520,000 will be used for the building and $10,000 tor the ex hibit. HEALTH is the Most Important The manufacturers of Royal Baking Powder have had 40 years of scientific experience. Every method or bread-and-cake raising has been exhaus tively studied in this country and abroad. The result is a perfect prod uct in Royal Baking Powder. There is no substitute for it. The purity and efficiency of Royal Baking Powder have been commended by the highest authorities of the world. These facts mean two impor- First : that Royal Bating Powder is healthful and makes wholesome food. Second : that Royal Bak ing1 Powder makes food good to taste. m PfiV A T BAKING SSXJ I jtL POWDER ABSOLUTELY PURE KICK WINS GAME. Score U. of O. 6, O. A. C. 5, in Saturday's Game; Never before in the history of Oregon football has a game been played that in its various settings equaled the game of last Satur day between the University of Oregon and the Oregon Agricul tural College. Never before ou te local field or elsewhere has there been a more unquenchable lot of football enthusiasts and never before was there ever seen a muddier lot of players, for there were times when one team could not be distinguished from the other and individual men could not be recognized except by the positions they played. The ram, driven by -a high wind, literally fell in torrents. Wave after wave fell upon the field until it was literally sub merged. It smote the faces of those who journeyed to the field, soaked fine broadcloth suits, beat through umbrellas and ruined .many a lady's fine gown. Everybody was soaking wet, yet no one budged for was not the game of the season about to be played upon the sodden field, the game upon which thousands of dollars had been staked and upon which men had been in training for months and upon the success of which went the championship of the state of Oregon? People yelled until their throats refused to. utter a sound. The OAC bleechers three hundred strong on a stand erected for the occa sion, discharged volley after vol ley until the very grouud trem bled and to which the feeble efforts of the Eugene shouters seemed but whispers. A trac tion engine fitted with a big three-foot gas pipe whistle an swered the rooters but even this could scarcely be heard when they gave their yells. Walker was the hero of the dav for OAC. Tust after the second half began and Eugene was making rapid gams for auother touchdown, Walker emerged from a particularly nasty mix-up, with the ball under-his arm and made a Q5-yard run for a touch-down. Walker weighs 200 pounds and does not claim to be a sprinter, but the way he threw mud .and gravel with the whole Eugene pack at his heels, threw the sideliners in- to spasms ot delight. it was several miuutes before the sen sation subsided and the opposing team realized what had been done. A score of sideliners rushed out and would have borne Wal ker around in triumph had it not been for the clubs of the guards. When both teams appeared on the muddy field it was plainly evident that the Agricultural College team was several pounds heavier than the visitors, but the OAC bleechers took heart and their yells broke through- the storm like the rattle of rapid fire musketry. But once the ball was kicked off and it fell into the hands of Eugene and she hit the line a few times for yardage, the knowing ones knew that OAC would very likely meet defeat. It took just seven minutes after Arnspiger returned the puut, and Joe Templeton was shoved over the line for a touchdown. The rain fell in sheets, and a goal seemed a miracle. By a brilliant piece of head work he made the touchdown possible where he would have at least an advantage of the wind. He succeeded, and his trenchant right foot met the ball. Up and outward toward toward the goal posts it soared. The wind caught it, deflected it a little, but all the force of that nimble foot withstood the on slaught of the wind, and the oval, turning and tumbling like a wounded bird, sailed between the posts and the goal was made. By the mighty booting he gave the ball Templeton won for Or egon the college championship of three states Oregon, Washing ton aud Idaho. The whistle saved Oregon Agricultural College from another score; for Oregon had the ball - on the farmer's ten-yard line when time was called. A pleasant evening was spent at the hoaid of Mis3 Ethel Norton Games were played and a general good time was . enjoyed by all present. Before the guests depart ed they were shown into - the dining room, wfysre a taffj-pull was enjoyed. ' . convem- F. P. Shea Fgreen is expected home from h:s eastern trip about the 28 jnst. The Apple Show has been post poned to Saturday - afternoon at 2 o'clock. T Rev. E L. Jones, of The Dalles, is here for a few days, the guest of T. T.

Casteel, who have been absent in the East for several weeks past returned to their home in Yaquina, a few days ago, and Mr. Casteel has resumed his position before the throttle of the regular C. & E . passenger train. The Barrett Lyceum on Third street, was the scene of a very pleasant social gathering on Fri day evening of last week. Rev. G. C. Love was the guest of the even ing and it was to meet him and his good wife socially that the guests assembled . The early part of the evening was spent by Mr. Love in answering questions propounded by the audience. Mrs. Love enter tained the audience with some ex cellent music. Mrs. Flint, as hostess gave the gueBts a cordial welcome, and materially assisted in making the entertainment a brilliant suc cess. Quite a number of Corvallis people, with their Portland friends, made up a theatre party last week to see The Gay Parisians at the Columbia. They were so well pleased thet they are enthusiastic in their praise of the new manage ment of what is getting to be acknowledged as Portland's lead ing theatre. This week the com pany will present Dion Boncicault's charming comedy-drama, "Led Astray," a play 'that has not been seen in Portland for many years and which will be placed on the etge in a mar ner creditable to the best stock company now playing in the West. Old theatre-goers will remember the play as one of Bou cicault's best. If you are in Port land this week, do not fail to see it. Runaway on Main Street. A runaway occured late Satur day night in which the buggy of Robert Gelately, of Philomath, was badly smashed and from which Mr. Gelately jumped just in time to probably save his life. Mr. . Gelately had come over to see the football game and took his leave down to Abbot's feed barn. When he started for home and only a short distance from tne Darn tne necKyoke tell, or a strap broke allowing the tongue to fall. The horses being young and faery got beyond control and ran up Main street at a terrific speed. Mr. Gelately when he saw that he could not manage the team jumped out and let them go. When opposite the post office they collided with a heavy wagon with the result that the horses tore loose from, the rig and dashed on toward home and the buggy had lost the two right side wheels. Fortunatcy no one was hurt. The Hotel Corvallis1 will serve a Turkey dinner on ' Thanksgiving Lay from 12 to 2 o'clock. Reduction in Fare. Commencing "Nov. 7, rates between.

His object is to ascertain how long the cider will keep sweet when sterilized and kept sealed. .When cider is ex posed to the air it will ferment in j troui three to seven days accord ing to the temperature, but when sterilized and sealed it will keep for an indefinite length of time. The cider with which Professor Pernot is experimenting was ob tained from the lecal cider mill and an ordinary grade such as is made and used by farmers gen erally. It is kept in the safe in the Agricultural building to bet ter ensure its being unmolested by students who will be glad for the privilege ot , personally con ducting the test. The ctder was obtained two weeks ago, and was heated to a temperature of 160 degrees Fah renheit and sealed. So far there is no indication that fermenta tion has set in. Mr. Pernot is also experimenting with canned fruit and vegetables with very interesting results. Some of the cans were purposely not heated to the required temperature and are beginning to burst, showing that a powerful gas is being gen erated. Among the things ex perimented upon are tomatoes, corn, peas, plums and pears. The peas and corn have the larg est number of failures the reason for which will be determined when the experiment is com pleted. These and other experi ments are going on constantly that are of great value to science and also to the farmer. 10 Cents a .Button, $1,00 a Rip, The Most Simple and yet the Strongest Warranty ever placed on any make of Trousers, WE DELIVER THE GOODS.
