Donations toward the basement fund were made by all who desired to contribute and aboui $320 was pledged. The basement will fill a long-felt want with the congre gation of this chuich, as they have hitherto lacked room ia which to hold their various church entertain ments and suppers. It is frequently remarked about Corvaliis inat never in the history of tue town have the streets been ia such a d plorable condition of muck, mud and slush as st present. This condi ion has been madewcrsa by the ioos9 dirt that was h uled and dumptd on varicu3 streets be fore toe rains set in and t1 ese streets are now a perfect horror to ail who are compelled to frequent, them with any 6ort of vehicle. The crossings in soma places neir the central part ot town are also in a bad fix, the- mud being so deep that it is text to impossible to cross with out getti. 2 into slush rubber-deep Tfce two year-oil son of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Taylor t7ied at the home four miles west of Corvaliis about 8: 30 o'clock Monday even ing. The child had not leea ill until that morning although a slight paleness was noticad the evening before. A phone message came to Dr. Cathey about 8: p. m. but before he reached the home the little one had expired. The supposition is that the boy swallow ed tome particles of glass that per forated the stomach, as he had been playing with some little glass balls ai d hid broken them to bits. As thtre wis no signs of illness this seems the most reason able theory fir the sudden death. The parents have the deep sympa thy of .the community.
