WERE DISAPPOINTED.
In New York City and Chicago
Oregon Qirls Abroad.
The two parties of Oregon
girls that have been touring the
East as guests respectively of the.
Telegram and Pacific North
west, have frankly expressed
their disappointment, and one
might say disgust, with certain
people and cities of the East, la
these parties are two Corvallis
girls Miss Nora Miiler with the
Telegram party, and Miss Alda
Metcalf with the Pacific North
west or Philip S. Bates party.
The Oregonian quotes the re
marks of Miss Metcalf in regaid
to New York men thus:
"The New York men are the
rudest I ever have seen. In the
street cars the men bury their
beads in the papers and let the
women stand up. You never
see that in Oregon."
'What impresses me most in
the East," said Miss Metcall, "is
the artificiality of the women. ,
Why, they all appeared amazed
at me whenever I expressed a
frank opinion. Gracious, I'd
hate to be so afraid of myself."
All the girls said they were
disappointed at the Jamestown
Exposition, but that Washington
equalled all their hopes.
A Chicago dispatch of the 5th
in the same paper said of the
party's visit tc that city:
'f Vi 11 htio-rir evprl anrl Irppn-
- e --
witted Oregon girls who are
touring the country departed to
night for Minneapolis where they
will be formally greeted at the
Stock Exchange tomorrow, Gov
ernor Johnson making the wel
coming speech.
In return for their criticism of
Chicago's unlovely skyline and
forbiding streets the Oregonians
today applied some salve to Chi
cago's wounded feelings by as
surring us that our women were
more human than those of New
York, and that the men here
were more polite and behaved
more like the men of their own
state than any specimens they
had seen in the East.
It was a busy. day. The party
chartered a "rubber-neck', auto
mobile and -toured Lincoln Park,
the Zoo, and paraded through
the great shopping center.
Shortly thereafter they hastened
back on foot to the shopping
center and "pried themselves
loose" from considerable money
in exchange for dry goods. They
wheedled policemen to snip sou
venir buttons from their uni
forms; declined to pay any at
tention to our lake shipping as
tuey ar familiar with great
ocean boats, bat commented
rather sharply upon the rough
streets.
South Water street, the great
market center, interested therr
very much, but they declined a
visit to the stock yards. The
mansion of Mrs. Potter Palmer
evoked mild praise, but Chica
go's chief claim to their pleasant
remembrance is the politeness of
the men, who gave them seats in
the cars and did not blow cigar
ette smoke in their faces, as the
New York men did. .
At the Sherman house, which
whs their headquarters while
honoring this city with a visit,
the bellboys, elevator men,
guards, and all the other uni
formed employes tonight admit
ted that they had parted com
pany with all their buttons,
which had gone into the Oregon
ian souvenir collection.
A Real German Wedding.
One of the finest weddings of
the season was at the home of
Mr. Anton Atkins on the Al
bany and Corvallis road inL-inn
countv, when their daughter
Mrs. Martha Hinkle became tht
wife of Mr. Mattis Noack of
Aurora, the marriage ceremonv
being performed by Rev. C. J
Beyerlein of the German Luth
eran church of Albany.
The impressive ceremony took
place at 2 130 last Wednesday af
ternoon. The bridesmaids were
Miss Mary Heeszel and Miss
Anna Leder of Corvallis. The
groom was attended by Fred
Strake of Corvallis. The cere
mony was performed in the Ger
man language.
The most tempting dinner was
served out doors on a beautifully
decorated table. About 80 guests
were present. After the dinner
the evening was spent in dancing-
The wedding gifts were
many and useful as well as beau
tiful. Noach is a prosperous hop
grower of Aurora and an in
lluential citizen. The briae has
a wide circle of friends in Cor
vallis where she has lived for a
year. They will be at home
near Aurora June 9, and a host
of friends ioin with the best
wishes for a long and successful
life.
Among those present were:
Mr. and Mrs. John C. Taumen,
Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Haflicb, Mr.
and Mrs. E. F. Ti uax, Mr. and
Mrs. Jas. Dyer, Mr. and Mrs.
Ernest Turner, Mr. and Mrs.
Frank Bowles, Mr. and Mrs.
Chas. Mausolf, Mr. and Mrs.
Fred Arnold, Mr. and Mrs. Peter
Ruiner, Mr. and Mrs. Haeszel,
Mr. and Mrs. Goas, Mr. Adam
Rader and Mr. Mike Haflich.
A Guest.
For Jamestown Team.
A dispatch from Eugene to
to the Portland Journal says:
The University of Oregon
track team has five candidates for
the team which will go to the
Jamestown exposition and these
men will make anyone else go
some to beat them out of their
positions.
They are McKinney, the big
shot-putter, discus-thrower and
hammer man; Zacharias, the
crack hammer man, who is sec
ond only to McKinney in discus
and shot, and Hug who threw so
close to Zicharias in the hammei
throw and usually beats him in
the shot. The next man is
Moores, the crack hurdler and
sprinter. If a team of any com
pleteness is taken he should be
included. Kelly of course is the
fifth and around him as a nucleus
the team will be built.
Whether all the men go will
depend upon the number taken,
for if a complete team is taken
they can hardly be left out. The
most doubt seems to hang around
Moores and Hug. Moores,' how
ever, tied the world's record in
the low hurdles on a curved
track and that will help his
chances materially.
Still Another Success,
Ripening fruit by electricity is
one ot the latest achievements of
science, says an exchange. The
experiment was tried by an Edg
"lish electrical expert, who found
that he could reproduce the ef
fects of the tropical sun's rays
without difficulty. The ripen
ing experiments have been tried
for the most part with bananas.
When bunches of green fruit ar
rive in England they are put up
in an air tight case made entirely
ot glass. Inside this case is
supplied with a number of elec
tric lights which can be turned
on anu off in any number at will.
It has been discovered the ban
anas ripen according to the
amount ot rays shed on - them.
The expert has now made tests
so that he can now ripen banan
as any time he wants them by
regulating the lights.
It is erroneously believed by
those who have rjever been in
bamna raising lands that there
the fruit is allowed to ripen on
the tree. This is not the case.
Bananas are picked green and
hung np to ripen just as they are
treated in the north.

TO MAKE FINE SHOWING.
At State Fair OAC Preparing
for Display.
Professor E. ' R. Lke of the
Oregon Agricultural -ollege was
in Salem a few days ago looking
over the state fair grounds and
making the final a.rangements
for the exhibit to be made by the
college at the fair this fall. Not
only is the college to make one
ot the finest exhibits on the
grounds, but plans are being
talked of for the erection of an
agricultural college pavilion for
permanent headquarters of the
college at the Oregon state fair.
Connected with the exhibit of
the Oregon Agricultural college
will be the display of the state
experiment station at Union,
which has called for 500 feet of
wall space.
To the lovers of horse flesh the
coming to the state fair ot tne
McLaughlin Bros., ot bt. Paul,
Minnesota, the well known horse
breeders, who exhibited at the
Lewis and Clark fair, will be
hailed with joy.
There is a great demand for
camping space at "Toziervilla"
and during the visit of "Mayor
Albert" Tozier to Norfork, Vir
ginia, where he is attending the
National Editorial Association,
Secretary Frank Welch is being
flooded with reservations for
space. All the space along the
main way, extending between
the depot grounds and the miin
entrance gates on both sides, has
been reserved, and the back lots
are being taken up with more
than common alacrity. Two new
cottages have been built and
more will be erected.
At a recent meeting of the
board of agriculture ic was de
cided to have a uniform admis
sion fee of 50 cents for men and
women, but the latter will be
admitted free to the grandstand.
