M. Porter arrived home yesterday morning from a twc- months' trip through Southern California and as far south as the City of Mexico. At Los Angeles, while on the way home, her party separated and oue or two of them went to San Francisco and stopped at the fated Occidental Hotel. From that place they wrote Mrs. Porter to join them, but not liking to transfer so often she came by Sacramento, otherwise she would have been in San Francisco when the appalling earthquake occurred and would probably have lest her life. Those who were in San Francisco and who desired her to meet them there were Ed Barrett and wife, formerly Misa Flinn, and a sister of the later, al3o Miss Kate Barrett, all of Albany.

It is a law which will give eyery man or woman the right to have pack ages up to eleven pounds pent through the mail.

Lilly had occasion to visit the pub lic school grounds in order to in spect some water pipe reported to have been leaking. While on the premises they concluded to sound the fire alarm and see how effect ively the youngsters had been taught the drill. Within 60 seconds from the first note of alarm the old school building, where the alarm was given, had been emptied. Prof. Holmes himself was somewhat surprised over the alarm, however, he reports that all the youngsters behaved in splendid fashion. With in five minutes from the first alarm the youngsters were all back at their 6tudies again. The drill, ef fective as it was, most have been very satisfactory to the visiting Girectors. - 1 B&Y IT Additional Local. Earthquake at 5:15 Wednesday Morn ing Starts Fires Shocks last many hours.

Morgan, The Print er, Corvallis. 29tf Shortly after Mrs. Otto Herse departed with her children a week or two ago for her old home in Wesi Point, Nebraska, a dispatch came for her announcing the death of her mother. Mrs.' Herse knew not that her mother was dead until she ar rived at the depot of her home town, where she expected to greet her mother. It certainly was a hard blow to find her mother dead.
