Poultry Show to be held in this

It's a cold raw day when Gene
Simpson and his associate poultry
fanciers, of Oorvalhs, can't make an
editor spend half a column of val
uable spac in saying something
nice about their annual poultry
show. The Register editor has
been elected an honorary member
of the Corvallis Poultry Association
and is entitled to all the yellow
leeged chickens and Spanish om
elettes he can eat at one sitting.

she is now giving a series of ; dra
matic recitals in various Utah
, cities and is doing nicely. The
Richfield Reaper says: Her recital
was grand, but there is something
more which impresses every ac
quaintance of thejyoung lady. Her
soul not only feels every det-iil of
the stage art, but her ;whole being
craves improvement. She is work
ing onward to a goal which will
radiate beams of satief-tction upon
every citizen of this country. We
need not wait for this pleasure, for
we believe Miss Wicklund has few
peers and no superiors of her age
in the West.

life. A "mud ben" a sort of a mon
grel water fowl, was roaming
Main street with the appearance of
the utmost unconcern. Gene Simp
son had the mud hen presented to
him by the party who caught it,
with the suggestion that he place it
among his pheasants until the Cor
vallis poultry show, at which time
. he could place it on exhibition
Gene did not take kindly to this
proposition and telephoned Prof.
Shaw at OAC, hoping that the pro-
m 1 "I 1 i 1 i
lessor wouia taise tne mra in . nana,
chloroform and mount it. Some
person while coming to town Fri
day morning captured the mud hen
south of Corvallis a short distance
and brought it in, turning it loose
in Daley & Arnold's bicycle shop,
Here it made itself so familiar that
the proprietors kicked it out into
the street.

The story of "A Broken Heart"
(at the Opera House Monday
night) is a tale of mining lif- in the
Rocky Mountains in Colorado. It if
of special interest since it is full of
Western spirit, and interests a'l
alike, for human nature is the same

Coach Steckle is quoted as fol
lows on Saturday's game: We are
perfectly satisfied with the result.
It was a hard iought-game and :hc
honors were even, but the Univer
sity team had a, golden chance to
win and grasped it successfully
Both elevens playedv hard clean
ball. Shorts has a good team and
his men play bard clean ball. Dol
an played a fine game for the Agri
cultural Co'lege, as did WilJiams
and Rhinehart. We are naturally
disappointed, but have no com
plaint to make. .
Speakjng of Saturday's game rf
football, Coach Shorts, of the U. of
O., said:. The game was very even
ly matched. Corvallis made more
yardage 'than Oregon did on
straight plunges, but Oregon would
have made more had not our. run
ners fumbled repeatedly. It was
not luck that won the, game it
was football., Moores, who ia al
ways alert, saw a chance to win
the game, grasped it, and the result

Latourette displayed great general
ship in runnining hia . team, and
George Hug put up a fine game at
center. I never saw such a dis
play of college enthusiasm as the
University rooters furnished during
the game and afterward. It was t
fine spirit for a small university,

a gentleman, wnose name we
could n.ot ascertain, came into town
early yesterday morning in a man
ner that reminds one of John Gil
pin's 'famous ride,' save tht our
in on a hayrack to which was, at
tached two horses. The horses in
some way got Deyonc; tne ariver ti
control and ran for a mile: or two
While the man stuck- to his post,
he could not stop the animals and
they ran clear to Vidito Bros.
livery stable, where the 'boys ran
out and checked them . The driver
of the team was about exhausted
as the result of tugging at the team
and during his early and hasty
flight had lost his hat and whip
the- latter at the time he did not
need. No damage was done.
Quite a serious runaway accident
occurred Sunday morning near
Oakville, ,. in Linn county. Hardin
McOaluster, his wife, and a gentle
man friend were driving along the
road and for some reason the team
took fright and ran away. Mr. Mc
Callister, who ia nearly 80 years
of age, was driving and was unable
to control the team. All parties
were thrown , out and the vehicle
somewhat damaged. Mr. McCal
lister was the only person hurt, but
his injuries were quite serious; one
shoulder was broken, the other dis
located, and some of his ribs were
smashed, in. Dr. Pernot, of this
city was hastily summoned and
went to the scene and rendered all
possible assistance to the wounded
man.
Popular Prices.
. : Beginning last night, the Em
pire Theatre Co., opened a" three
nights' engagement in Corvallis
with the play, ' 'A Broken Heart. ' '
This is the first attraction pre
sented to Corvallis theatre goers
at popular prices. The play the
first night is said to be consider
ably ahead of the ordinary melo
drama so far as plot and con
struction is concerned. The story
is an interesting one, and it pos
sesses. just sufficient,, of . comedy
features to brighten it and prove
entertaining. It does not lack
for thrilling scenes nor opportun
ities for theatrical red fire, but
its features are softened, its ac
tion smooth and graceful and the
impossible situations of the aver
age melodrama eliminated.
For Tuesday and Wednesday
evening, the plays though differ
ing in character, are represented
to be equally good. Tickets are
now on sale at Graham & Worth
am's drug store. Reserved seats,
35 cents; general admission, 25
cents; children, 15 cents.

Additional Local.
It is quite probable that never
in the history of Corvallis has
there been so rauch building in
progress at any one time as at
the present. About every man in
thjs city who can. hammer a nail
'.'home' ' is engaged , in assisting
in the construction of some
building. , , , ,. , , " . .
A few of our contractors have
called a halt in the matter of ac
cepting any more wonr, saying
that they cannot fulfill the con
tracts if the buildings are to .be
ceAipleted within the near future.
: That all will be busy until aftetj
the dawning of 1906 goes with
out saying. . The buildings are
mostly in thenature of residences Wiu present on this
and are' scattered about in var
ious sections of the city. There
is no boom about the proposition,
just a healthy growth. Now,
that you've get tired of keeping
your optics on other places, watch
Corvallis grow.

The Reason Why.
. Why will there be no Tariff
legislation andN why . do ,;, ,those
opposed to Tariff revision have
the upperhand for the present?' '
Simply .; because the people do
not want the Tariff revised; and
simply because they are not, as
the , revisionists ' have . claimed,
clamoring for a cutting down of
schedules; simply because present
conditions are very satisfactory,
and the people are not such fools
as to permit a dangerous change
at the behest of a few selfish
politicians.
