A dispatch, under date of May 3 appeared in 'the Oreeonian and ! A team belonging to the Herrori boys, near Monroe, ran away last Friday, demolishing the 1 wagon and injuring themselves :n a barb ed wire fence. Regent J. D. Daly was up troro Portland. Saturday. He came up to audit the usual grist of bills at OAC, and attend some other mat ters of business. Will Fechter, violinist of Albany, was in town Saturday to arrange for playing for the Junior hop. It was previously given out, that this engagement had been given to Parsony, of Portland. Miss Etta Carter, member cf the class of '04, OAC,' arrived " in Cor vallis last Fridav from Halsey for a visit, with friends'. During the coming -year she will . teach in the Albany public schools. Ri Ei1 Gibson' came up from Portland,1 Saturday.

L. Proebstel, class '04, OAC, f-returned last week from California, where he has been pursuing' post graduate work io metallurgy at Stanford and Berkeley Universities : one half the time at each institu tioD. He is pleased to meet his friends from Corvallis and get t s little rest after year's hard work About two miles of street have already been graded in this cily arid are in really fine shape. ' Now ; the proper thing to do is to . make - an extra effort to have these streets graveled at once. If they are al- ' lowed to go for a year or two the ' grade" will have been lost in measure and a regrading will be necessary. " Oi W. Hurd, the k leading capital ist of Florence, Lane county, ar rived in this city last Friday. It .is understood that he was here to arrange for a large consignment of flour to be shipped him from the .Corvallis . Flouring, Mills. Mr. Gruggett, who . holds a position ; with S. L. Kline, was formerly in the employ of Mr. Hurd. , About eight hack loads of people from OAC and town went down to Wells, Friday evening, to atteiid a dance given by the United Artisans. ''; A splendid time" is the ' verdict of all who attended. A good supper . was prepared for those present. The attendance was unusually large, 98 tickets being sold. .Only kind words are spoken of the affairr Johnnie Erwin is having a lay off at present and Sunday he went '" over to Sodaviile, where he has a sister with whom he will visit for a couple of weeks. Mr. Erwin has acted as deputy for Clerk Moses for the pa6t two or thiee years, , but on account of it being very quiet in the office at present it is doubtful if he returns. If business looks up a trifle and Mr. Erwin finds nothing to his liking in the mean time, it is likely that he will return. Max Milder had an adventure last Saturday' forenoon hat might haye ended far more seriously than it did. Maxie has not yet , had sufficient experience with horses to make him a master hand with'tbem. On this occasion he was driving a lady out to his father's place west of Corvallis and the hind wheel of Maxie's buggy came in contact with that of a wagon that he met. The result was that a section of the hind wheel of. the buggy pulled out leaving it in the shape of a half circle. The animal be came frightened and started to run. . With one hind wheel suddenly shaped as it was the occupants of the buggy were " jumped up and down like "Jacks in a box.": The lady grabbed one- rein"" and Max held to the other and. between them they see-sawed the horse into a ditch. About this time E. R. Bry so n and Johnnie Wells chanced along, on their way ; to town and they assisted Max" and the horse home, while the lady walked on out to the place. . , 1 . : friends Z. H.

Bareinger, who resides about eight miles southwest of this city, has supplied the county court with an article for exhibition at the Lewis and Clark Fair that we wager will not be duplicated by ariy county in Oregon or any other state It is a piece of old-fashioned, home-, made lye soap, made by herself and busbar d 33 years ago. . In order properly to give an idea of what ha was doing B. R. Thomp son recently had a piece of galvan ized iron cut into the form of an artist's palette. On one side of this he painted a water scene; on tne otner side was paintjd n simi lar scene, with the exception that a boat was supposed to be floating on the placid waters. This was hung up in front of his photograph gal lery and last Friday evening was stolen, borne rogue in this section seems to be strangely drawn toward art. County court is to hold an ad journed term next Saturday and in the mormnff will proceed to in vestigate the condition of the Oak Creek road ' a mile or two from town. This is not the portion ! of Oak Creek road between this city and Philomath, but a piece of road between Corvallis and the P. A. Kline farm wett of here. In the rainy season Oak Creek overflows and runs along in the middle of the road, cutting it out badly. The soil is such that it is hard to do anything in the way of road build ing and it is proposed to change the location 01 a certain section and make some repairs "of a permanent nature in otner places, xms is a piece of road that has for mary years given much trouble. The county court very much de sires to secure fine fleeces as samples ' of wool for the Benton county ex hibit at the Lewis and CJ ark Fair Thev desire samples of Maiino, Cotswold ; and Downs wool and samples selected will be " paid for. It is further requested that those who bring in' samples may have them at the county courtroom ' by 2 o'clock next Saturday Kternoou, An effort will be made to have Dr. WUhycombe, Mack Porter arid P. A. Kline to act as judges in the selection of fleeces for exhibition It does seem that as the county is willing to pay for thes? samples, and also ia consideration of the purpose of the same,' that a num ber of our wool " growers will ,be patriotic enough to have a good selection on hand next Saturday.' morning on the farm he has rent ed, west of town a mile or two. He had occasion to climb into the loft and had no sooner gained the floor than he put a foot through a hole. It is stated that in the endeavor to extricate him self from hole ia the floor No. 1 ne turned over in some manner and fell bodily through hole No. 2. ' He was badly wrenched by the fall to the lower floor. The gentleman who is on F. L. Mil er's place, which adjoins the one rented by Mr. Bane, telephoned Mr. Miller regarding the state of affairs and the latter secured aS' sistance, notified Mrs. Bane and took her from her town home to to the bedside of her husband out on the farm. Mr. Bane was quite severely bruised and sprained by his fall, but no serious injuries are report ed, however badly the matter might have been.
