HE 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,

building. Massachusetts will
spend in all $30,000, of which
520,000 will be used for the

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. ' .

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.

Valuable Experiments.
Professor Pernot; has been ex
periinenting-jwith 300 quarts of
cider, . put up partly in bottles,
partly in tin-. 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.

none of which relieved me. One day I
saw an ad. of your electric Bitters and I

after was entirely cored, and have not
