HORACE rXDERHIi.L, Administrator of ihe Estate of Abiam Uuder hill, deceased. 43-58 LETTER LIST. The following letters retrain uncalled for in the Corvallis pestotfice, for the week ending June 15, 1907: Columbia Ergineerinc; Wks, I B Ed ger, R J Seeds, 2, C W Woods. B. TP. Johksos, P M Sunshine rules again in Corvallis, and while some wish for more rain, others are elad of the chance to pleasant wtath er. Impossible to please everyone, no' A clock over matter wnat trie conditions. "Yes, I met President Roose velt in Washington : had a glimpse of the Tombs where Harry Thaw is incarcerated in New York; saw the famous Madison - Square root garden where the White Thaw tragedy occurred, and the tower wbere Stanford White's rooms were located, and ten mil lion other sights that I can not describe," declared Miss Alda Metcalt, the Cotvallis girl who has just returned from a three weeks' trip East as a guest of Phillip S. Bates' contest party of girls. It was the trip of a life- time, for Mr. Bates was princely in his treatment of the lucky girls who won the free trip, and their every wish was gratibed. Their first important stop after leaving Chicago was at Washing ton, D. C. , where they were tak en about the city in an automo bile, all the points of interest be ing explained by a lectuier who accompanied the party. "This is a city ot great wealth," said the lecturer, "and everyone has money in Washington. Every bird has a bill in its mouth, every horse wears a check on its head, every flower has a (s) cent, every blade ot grass has a green oack, every nigger who mows a lawn gets a good rake-off and everyone goes out of town m summer for the change." By the time the speaker had com pleted the list and stopped te catch his breath the Oregon girls were convinced that Washington was indeed a city oi vast riches. The home of Mr. and : Mrs. Nicholas Longworth was viewed, but with its uninviting, cold brown stone front and its lawn grown knee-high with rank grass it did not appeal to the Oregon "peaches." The Lrongworths are away for the summer. All the homes of the government of ficials and high dignatanes were seen, but none appealed parti' cularly to the bunch ot lassies from the far West. "They are all so much alike, all so severe and cold, and so jammed together that it would kill me to have to live in one," said the Corvallis girl who saw them. The girls visited Mt Vernon, the old home of George and Mar tha Washington ; they visited the tomb of the illustrious pair and saw the coffins that hold the ashes of the father of his coun try and his wife. Much of the furniture used by the Washing- tons is preserved at Mt. Vernon and was seen by the Oregon party, including the bed in which George Washington died. A leaf from a magnolia tree planted at Mt. Vernon by the "boy who never told a lie" is among Miss Metcalf's treasured souvenir . President Roosevelt was at Mt. Vernon the same day, and Miss Metcalf petted his favorite riding horse while the groom awaited the appearance of the President. "We had dinner at the Ebbitt house that night," said Miss Metcalf, "and Senator Bourne diaed with us. The next dav he went wiib us to the White House and introduced us to President Roosevelt. The latter greeted as cordially and as he shook hands with us made a tew re marks to each. He looks exact ly like his pictures and has a rather odd style of speech." The girls were shown through the White Hcuse and the use of the various rooms was explained. The dining room is in brown, including all the furniture; there is a large, elegant fireplace, din ing table and chairs, and the walls are adorned with beautifully mounted heads of deer, moose, bear, elk and other animals. A silver loving cup of superb work mauship, presented President RooseveU by some high foreign dignitary, was one of -the thing'. especially observed by the girls. 200 years old, a wedding present to Alice Roose velt, was also shown the West ern guests. The White House is described as elegant and luxur ious but possessing the genome 'homey" atmosphere probably its most charming characteristic. The Bates party visited most of the points of interest in the national capital, which is des cribed as the most beautiful city seen. From there toe girls took the steamer Washington for Old Point Comfort, where the sol diers came in for a share ot at tention and the cannon and other sights of a military post were viewed. While the Jamestown exposi tion was the principal point in the trip, it received scant atten tion from the travelers. They spent but half a day at James town and the revson is given by the Corvallis girl, who says: "Why, there is nothing to see there, absolutely nothing. The buildings are just like barns, and all of them are decorated with signs ot tresn paint' or tnis building will be finished in days.' The only place where we saw anything was in the Government building and even there the ex hibits did not amount to any thing." The partv went from there to Norfolk, and thence to New York City by steamer, spending a day and a night on the ocean, a de lightful trip enjoyed by all the girls, none of whom were sick. Reaching New York City the party pnt up at the Martha Wash ington, a hotel for women only, twelve stories, and a block from Broadway "The Great White Way." In this city the homes of Rockefeller, the Goulds, ;As- tors, Vanderbilts and other people of vast wealth were seen but they elicited uo enthusiasm from the Oregon girls, accustomed to plenty of space and fresh air. "From the Martha Washing ton we could see the Madison Square roof garden all lighted up, where 5000 people at a time can find entertainment; we could see the tower where Stanford White had his suite of rooms, and we passed the Tombs where Harry Thaw is confined," said Miss Metalf. The girls had a ride in the sub' way, "did" Central rark, saw the "Zoo," and two of them Miss Metcalf and Miss Woolrey crossed Brocklyn bride and were entertained all one afternoon at Coney Island. A trip to Buffalo, a visit to the home of Elbert Hubbard, the noted writer, at East Aurora, a jaunt to Niagara Falls, where they were in "The Cave of the Winas." and the party was off for the "Twin Cities" St. Paul and Minneapolis, en route home. Thence to Portland over the beautiful Canadian Pacific, and a very unusual and intensely in teresting three weeks' journey was ended in reality, but it will live in memory forever. MORE REPORTS. All '07. From Teachers in Benton Pupils are Busy. School District No. 12. Blodgett, Or., May 14. Mr. G. W. Denman: I desire to tell of the efforts of the pnpils of Blodgett school district No. 12. They are pot ting forth great efforts to have their school take a prominent part and place at the All Benton School Fair. The pupils are very enthusiastic over their work. While they are on the play ground I hear them saying; among themselves "I'm going to make a doihe, I have the silk and thread and the lace select ed." "Yes, and I have selected a certain verse from Longfellow to write." "I have been prac ticing making butter," says another; still another is practic ing in the bread making con test. Some one else has been making jelly. Some I hear tell ing how quickly they have learn ed to hemstitch and make but ton holes. Others tell how quickly the garden seeds sprout ed and appeared through the ground. Some talk about how to raise corn and wheat. To listen is all one has to do to see the future benefit derived from the work done for and by this fair. Mrs. Anna Hall Mathany. School District No. 1. Preparations for a splendid ex hibit are being enthusiastically carried out by the pupils from this school. The aim of the pu pils is nothing short oi a com plete exhibit, and having the hearty co-operation of their par ents it is believed they will have no occasion for having their standard lowered. Winnifred , Gates, teacher. "Qrandma" Nichols. Another kindly, aged face is missing from the ranks in Cor vallis, and out in Newton ceme tery a monnd of freshly turned earth marks the last abode of "Grandma" Nichols. A few weeks ago deceased fell and sustained a fracture of the hip. Gradually thereafter her strength failed and death came peacefully Wednesday evening at the home of her son, Charles Nichols, where she had made her home for a long time. Mrs. Hannah Nichols was born in Derbershire, England, Dec ember 27, 1824. She was mar ried to Edward Nichols in 1848 and came to America in 1849. one was a kindly disposed, up right, honorable woman who made friends wherever she went and in Corvallis she was fami liarly known as "grandma" and was beloved by many. The funeral occurred from the Wilkin's chapel Friday forenoon, conducted by .Rev. G. H. Feese, a choir furnishing appropriate music. There was a generous supply of Oregon's choice roses and numerous friends were pres ent to pay their repects to the de parted. Interment was in New ton cemetery. Another Death. About Solomon.

It was not a Corvallis little girl who wrote the following es say on King Solomon, but an Illinois girl who had caught the spirit from attending a high school commencement and lis tening to the flowery orations of the yonng graduates, btae wrote : 'King Solomon was a man who lived ever so many years ago, and in the country he gov erned he was the whole push. He was an awful wise man, and one day two wot en came to him each holding on to the leg of a baby and nearly pulling it in two, and both claiming it. And King Solomon was feeling right good, ana he said, "Why could not the brat have been born twins and stopped all this both er?" And then he called for his sword and was going to chop the kid in two and give each ot them a piece of it, when the one who was the real mother said: "atop, Solomon; stay thy hand! Let that old hag have it; if I can't have a whole baby I won't have any." Then Solomon told her to take the baby and go home and wash its face, for he knew it was hers; and he told the other woman to go chase herself. "King Solomon built Solo mon's temple, and he was the father of all the Masons. He had 700 wives and 300 lady friends, and that is wuy there are so many Masons in the world. My papa savs that King Solomon was a warm number, and I think he was hot stuff, myself. That's all I know about King Solomon" Another respected citizen of Corvallis has passed on, and rt. 1 latives and friends have bnen left to mourn the loss of a kind husband, brother, friend . and neighbor. He is A. N. Locke, who died at 11 o'clock Thursday night after suffering for more than two months from paralysis. His last weeks of life were made as comfortable as possible by the family and friends, but from the first there was little hope of re covery. The funeral occurred at 2 o'clock Sunday afternoon, from the residence, the services being conducted by Rev. J. B. Ellison. Interment was in the Locke cemetery. Deceased was aged about 65 years and was a native ot Miss ouri. He came to Benton coun ty with his father in 1847, the Lockes being among the early settlers in Benton. There was a large family consisting of two girls and six boys, only two of whom survive A. R. ana W. Locke, both respected residents of this locality. The surviving widow was in girlhood Miss bin- married in Missouri 23 years ago. . Mr. Locke was a good citizen ish his memory. - Miss Mabel Withy combe was hostess, Wednesday afternoon, at s delightful "500" party, given at her home on college hi'J.

There are more young men iri the penitentiaries in this country learning trades than there are outside of them learning trades, declares an exchange. The prin cipal cause for this is that we are educating our young men for idle gentlemen, trying to make law yers, preachers, doctors and clerks out of material that is needed for blacksmiths, carpen ters, merchants and other honest "hewers of wood and drawers of water." It is a mistake, and a bijj one, to tea "h boys and girls to believe that labor is disgrace: ful, and to do nothing for a liv ing is more becoming to society. Han such societv! It is rovten to the core and is ruining our country today; and there are sons and daughters who are being educated to play the "leading lady" and the "walk ing gentleman" in the drama of life, who will light out for the poor house or the penitentiary before the curtain drops on the last sad act of the play to which they hav been educated by their too indulgent parents. John Yt.ung has displayed acom mendaDle public spirit by placing a cerr.ent walk along bis residence pr; perty and repainting his housa.
