MARRIAGE A SECRET.
Well Known OAC Student Keeps
Affair Quiet.
Wedded in Portland ten
months ago the news of the mar
riage of Leonard F. Darby, a
leading OAC student, and Miss
Pearl Anderson of this city, only
yesterday became known to the
young's couples's many friends,
savs Friday's Albany Herald.
Ever since September 5th,
last, Mr. and Mrs. Darby have
successfully kept the news of
their mariiage a secret from their
most intimate frunds, and only
the parents of the young couple
were aware that such an event
had occurred.
Throughout the past ten
months Mr. Darby has been-a
student in the pharmacy course
at the Oregon Agricultural col
lege and his bride has resided in
this city with her parents, Mr.
and Mrs. T. J. Anderson.
The reasons which lead to the
concealment ot the relation be
tween Mr. Darby and Miss And
erson were that the former desir
ed to complete the pharmacy
course at Corvallis this year, and
considered it best that the mar
riage should not be known. Mr,
Darby is well known as one of
the star football players on the
Agricultural college eleven. He
is22 years of age. The wed
ding ceremonv wa performed bv
Rev. F. L. Young of the Episco-
cal church in Portland. Mr.
Darby graduated from the two
year's course this month, and is
now working in a Portland drug
store. Mrs. Darby is at present
with her parents in this city, but
experts to leave in a few days for
Portladd to join her husband.
Our Girls in East.
The Saturday Evening Post
comments learnedly on the ob
servations of the Oregon girls
who recently visited the Bast.
The Post savs:
A party of young women from
one of the Pacific coast states
now doing a grand tour of the
country has been praised un
stintedly by a leading newspaper
of their state because of their
"loyalty to their state and its
customs." To one resident on
our westernmost meridian every-
th Bg else is, of course, East, and
the members of the party in
question buried Chicago and New
York together under strongly ex
pressed disapproval. The parti
cular sightsand institutions which
occasioned this disapproval, it
may be added, are just those to
I which the well-bred . residents of
tbese cities also take exception
So there is no occasion for dis
pute or difference of opinion
But the reason for characterizing
loyalty to the home state as "re
freshing and admirable to a de
gree," is harder to see. The en
thusaistic citizens of the Far
West declare, and with more
than a little truth, that the jd-
ed XMew Yorker or C'icagoan be
gins to breathe new lite when he
sets foot in that favored region
that, in effect, be can never be
quite contented again in old ef-
: tete commonwealths. Whv then
is it not accepted as axiomatic
that the Westerner will withstand
eastern auurments and remain
trne to his own country as he
would remain honest if offered a
bribe? But the "wild and wool
ly" tradition about the Wes;
ought, as it disappears, to take
with it the "tinselled and hol
low" tradition about the East,
especially since any given local
ity is Eastern or Western, simply
according to the point where one
stands to examine it.
Sweeden Inquires.
That tbe eves of tbe world are
fixed on Oregon is no mere ether
eal dream of the enthusiastic
booster, says the Salem States
man. Not only are Oregon's Great
t-at.aitd undeveloped reaooxecs entic
ing to hundreds of emigrants but
the great governmental reforms
the Beaver state has inaugurat
ed are r,ot less attractive to for
eign diplomats and publicists.
Another instance is noted in
letter received by Governor
Chamberlain from far away Swee-
aen. ine missive sought in
formation relative to the initia
tive and referendum and more
particularly on its effect on pol
ltical parties. The information
is sought by Otto Groodlund of
Stockholm, who is connected
with the central bureau of sta
tistics of Sweeden. He states
that be i preparing a treatise on
the subject and that he has learn
ed that the two i measures had
been adopted by the Oregon leg
islature and that he wished to
know more of their practical ap
plication.
Their Reunion Ended.
The two Edwards families re
turned to Corvallis the last of the
week from the Rinehart family
reunion at Eugene, which is the
most notable event in that line
held in Oregon, being of annual
occurrence, lneliuard Friday
says of it:
The Rinehart family reunion,
which began at the old T. D.
Edwards place above Spring-
field Monday, came to a close last
evening, and today all the visit
ors from a distance left for their
respective homes, most of them
in Eastern Oregon. Yesterday
was the biggest day, it being
pioneers' day. About three
hundred visitors, besides the
members of the Rinehatt family,
were there and the day was very
enjoyably spent. At noon there
was a basket dinner and in the
afternoon addresses were deliver
ed, games played and various
amusements indulged in. Rev.
R. G. Callisen delivered ' the ad
dress of welcome and it was re
sponded to by T. A. Rinehart.
Fred Edwards delivered a splen
did oration on "The Oregon
Pioneer." . .
There was music by various
members of the Rinehart family,
followed by short talks.
Officers of the reunion were
elected as follows:
President, T. H. ; Rinehart of
Summerville; vice president,
Henry Rinehart, : of Elgin ; secre
tary, T. A. Rinehart, of La
Grande. The next reunion will
be held at Summerville in June,
1908.

CORVALLIS CELEBRATION.
Some Side Attractions Two
Days' Racing Features. ,
That the Corvallis celebration
will be a big affair has all along
been a conceded fact, since ener
getic business men were in
charge of affairs in the beginning
and no effort has been spared to
make the fourth a memorable
day in this city.
But all the good things prom
ised have not yet been made
known, as two days of racing on
Kiger track will lengthen the
celebration into a three days' af
fair instead ot a one-day event.
All the fine borses that are to
participate in tbe Independence
race meet ate to be in Corvallis
for the races, and some of the
blooded animals of which Albany
boasts are, it is said, also
to come to this city for the track
events.

are being done to put the
grounds in first class condition
and repair the grand stand. A
brass band has been engaged for
the races, and $500 has been
raised to be put up in purses.

ing to association rules and re
gulations, and entries for harness
races will close July 1st. The

Married Yesterday.
There was a pretty home wed
ding yesterday at 11 a. m. at the
residence of Mr. and Mrs. M
Chappell, when their youngest
daughter, Miss Mvrtie Marian,
was united in marriage to Alfred
Bradley, by Rev. C. T. Hurd, of
the United Evangelical church
Only the immediate relatives
were present, and after the usual
congratulations the happy couple
depaited for Portland where they
will spend a few days, possibly
remain indefinitely. This, how
ever, will depend upon the ter
mination of certain business
affairs which are as yet unsettled
The bride has resided for a
number of years in Benton
county and has made her
home in Corvallis the past two
years, where by her lovable dis
position she has endeared her
self to a large circle of f.iends
who join in wishing her all hap
piness. Mr. Bradley graduated
from OAC in '06 and spent the
past year in an electrical course
at Schnectady, New York. He
is a young man of sterling worth
and likewise has many friends in
Corvallis who extend hearty con
gratulaticns.
uoia, cloudy w earner was
the ru'.e again in Corvallis the past
week, ' and fires were in de
mand in homes and effices. It
seems hardly possible that tbe 4th
of July ia ao sear at hand, when
winter eoata art Mill being worn.
Unveiled Her Monument.
Sunday afternoon at Newton
cemetery, Philomath Circle, No.
488 held an impressive ceremony
at the grave of the late Mrs. Mi
randa Alford. A large crowd of
relatives, friends and visitiug
neighbors witnessed the unveil
ing of the handsome monument
erected by the Grand Circle Wc-
men of Woodcraft, in memory of
the departed neighbor.
A splendid procession was
formed, captained by W. H.
Newton, and led bv the Circle
Guard in white with sashes of
the Circle colors, followed bv the
officers with memorial regalia,
the visi tine neighbors. Marv's
Peak Circle of Corvallis. and a
jlong line of relatives and friends.
ah were laoen with horal otter
ins's which beantifnllv wreathed
the monument and were literally
neaped upon the grave after un
veiling. It was a sight to remain
long in one's memory.
The ritualistic ceremony was
rendered in a beautiful manner,
and a quartette composed of Prof.
Goodrich, Ernest Chappell, Mes
dames Sheak and Wright fur
nished appropriate and touch
ing music.
Rev. P. O. Bonebrake deliver
ed an excellent address for the
order, and a eulogy of the de
parted.
In all. it was one of the most
beautiful ceremonies ever wit
nessed at that cemeterv.
Remarkable Dog.
One of the most remarkable
dogs ever heard of in "these
parts" is described in the Tele
gram, which says:
"Dainty" is a fox terner on
the British ship Jordanhill and
the property of Captain Keneally,
master ot tbe vessel, is reputed
to be the best trained dog that
ever arrived at this port on any
craft. She makes her wants
known by barking.
When Dainty is thirsty she
yelps once. Unlike some sailors
she is satisfied with water. Two
barks mean that she would like a
morsel of treat; bv three she asks
to be let out on deck; and by
tour to be left strictly alone.
The right number of ki-yi's is
always given, making it as easy
for an attendant to wait upon her
as if she spoke English fluently.
Like government officials in
Russia, the terrier detests red.
If a tar dons a red cap, the dog
sets up such a howl that he is
compelled to remove his head
gear to keep peace in the family.
At her regular meals Dainty is
provided with a napkin which
she tucks under her collar. When
the repast is finished, she dries
her lips and the tip of her nose
most carefully. Her character
istic daintenefs won her her
name. The dog keeps her nap
kin in its place in her kennel.
When it begins to show dirt she
takes it to the. steward, and gets
a clean one.
Dainty has fallen overboard
more than a score of times. She
is an expert swimmer and has no
trouble escaping sharks so far.
On her last adventure of this sort,
a line was thrown to her. She
grasped it in her teeth and hung
on until she was drawn abroad.
Dainty has also a number of ath
letic "stunts" worthy of the
vaudeville stage.
In regard to Fred Edwards, tbe
old time OAC student who later
went to U. of O., the Register, Fri
day, says: "Fred Edwards, who
graduated from the university ia
1901, left for his home near Condon
yesterday, after attending the Rine
hart anniversary celebration. Ed
wards regretted that he was unable
to remain for commencement - but
said that he had a large field of hay
that needed hie attention. The
plucky little quarterback is in the
cattle business now and is succeed
ing." Mrs. Purdy and daughter Esther,
and a married daughter, Mrs. Jones,
left Friday for Portland. The lat
ter resides ia that city.
