A pretty wedding occurred Wednesday evening at the home of Mrs. Caroline Maxfield in Jobs Addition, when Miss Florence Maxfield became the bride of Marion Wilkes, of South ern Oresron. . The ceremony was preformed at 8:00 o'clock by Rev. C. T. Hurd of the United Evangelical church, in the presence of about 45 relatives and friends. At the appointed time Miss Leona Jackson began a wedding march and the young couple de scended the stairs and took their places under a large bell of white lillies suspended from a green and white arch of ivy and syringa. They were pre ceded by two pretty little flower girls, Francis Wiles' and Verna Matthews. After congratula tions refreshments were served and the evening spent in a social way. The house was beautifully decorated throughout with roses. The bride wore white silk, with full length veil, and carried carnations. She has been a popular teacher in the Corvallis public schools for several years and is a modest, womanly girl who is highly esteemed by a wide circle of friends. The groom is a former popular OAC student of high character, and is holding a good position at the Blue Ledge nr"ne in Southern Oregon. . . .. ,1 . Mr. and Mrs. Wilkes were the recipients of many handsome and useful presents consisting of silverware, china, and linen. They left Friday noon . for their new home, followed by the good wishes of many sincere friends. He Has "Nerve." A peculiar case of "nerve" is related in a dispatch from Albany, in regard to a man who shot his wife and now seeks to collect the insurance on her life. The dis patch says: The local officers of the Twenty-five Hundred, a life in surance organizatioa with head quarters at this city, are in receipt of a communication from Hardin & Huilburt of Bellingham. Washington, asking that the amount carried by the deceased of their client, R. F. Walker, be forwarded them and paid to him as her beneficiary. Secretary Walter M. Parker of the local order believes that unaer the rules of the company this cannot be paid to him on account of the fact that the death ot the insured was due to pistol wound inflicted by the beneficiary. The local order is willing to pay the money ts a duly appoint ed administrator of the estate to be applied to the use and benefit ot the children of the deceased Is No Joke. This Question of kitchen work is becoming a serious matter Unless some radical change takes place in the ambitions of our beautiful young girls, the bovs and men of the coming generation will have to don frocks and ecrub pots, kettles ard pans, and try their hands at m-ikirijj liniberer caeese,- salad aud cork screw Jahnuie cake, avers an ex change editor most tiuthfuilv. This matter of house-keeping ano cooking spuds is an art, aod i; the women of the land are goio to ignore it, and turn their enti ties to the pursuits that m-r have heretofore followed, theonn, thing that man can do it to pii in and get the meals, and sweep and make the bunks. These art some ot the things that are quite essential to oar present system cf 'iving', and must be taken into consideration, under present ec uiiuuiic. conditions. wnen we can do without housekeeping and cooking, it won't matter so much, but for heaven's sate, ladies, save us from the embaras- sing delusion or we will have to eat grass. Jim Town Show" A Fizzle. A Portland man who-has just returned from the Jamestown exposition says; "The Exposition is a fizzel and it will not pay the promot ers for their trouble in getting it up. Visitors are few, as the name of the enterprise has gone over the land, and people have lost interest in it. Nothing has been finished except the Govern ment exhibit, which is very creditable; but not mote so than it was at our Exposition here, two years ago. "We found hotel charges rea sonable, as there is very little patronage, and every house in the vicinity of the three cities getting up the fair takes boarders. A good room can be secured for a dollar a day, and other things are proportionately cheap.'.' HINDU STUDENT'S LETTER. Writes of His Native Country- India to Revolt. . Accompanied by his picture, a letter trom one ot tne UAU Hindu students, appeared in Friday's Oregon Journal. That paper says: In a letter to The Journal H. S. Chima ot India, a senior at the Oregon Agricultural college, predicts that the day is not far disfanTwfcea "India will rise in revolt against British rule . He says : Big nations have nearly come to n agreement that wars should be stopptd and that international quarrels should be decided by arbitration, but this does not hold good in the case of India, which has not yet gained even her free dom and consequently cannot be judged in the same manner. We are in every way behinn other countries and need war and un less we have war there is no hope for us. "The English have been rul ing us through our hearts ignor ant of ourselves, but these hearts have entirely changed. Day by dav we are understanding our position and our relation to gov ernment more fullv. "The present situation prevail ing in India reflect that Seeley's theory that the natives of India have so long been under the for eign yoke that they have lost even the sense of nationality is proving untrue and Lord Cuizon's Asiatic policy, "the east can never be ruled except through the heart," is proving tree because these hearts have changed a little. In addition to these a few bad acts of Lord Cutzon have gone a long way in the realization of our state. In this respect he has done us a great service and bis name will ever be remembered in association with the awakening of the nation al spirit in India. '"Everywhere protest meetings are being held in which the evils of the government are brought home to the minds ot the masses, and there is a general cry to remove these evils. Iu fact the people, setting aside all their sectarian dispute, have been aroused to the sense of national freedom. "Tais is a favorable sign for the better prospects of India, and if this kind of agitation goes for some time a day will certainly come when sheer loyalty will be considered disgrace aud fighting for right self-respect." j .'

With a bang, roar, and fizz the Fourth was ushered in, aud with a fizz, roar, and bang it was usuered out, in Corvallis. The races Tuesday and Wednesday began to draw people in throngs which increased from day to day until the Fourth, when the mon ster crowd in the history of the town was in attendance at the celebration. . The parade was scheduled for 9 o'clock but it did not oppear until 10, by which time Main street was literally packed with humanity as far as the eye could see up and down. The parade includ ed the Goddess of Liberty, Miss Nelle Marvin, in a chariot de corated with bunting and drawn by three white horses, the Liberty Car, floats of the W. R. C. and the Washington's and other vehicles, all attractively deco rated. What was generally conceded to be the prettiest feat'ire of the parade was the Coffee Club float, which was the cab beautifully decorated with flowers and greenery, in which Miss Carrie Danneman served coffee to three small boys who rode therein. The entire float was prettily done" and received many com pliments. After the parade the crowd quickly gathered at the court house square where the program was carried out according to schedule. Congressman W. C. Hawley, Mayor George Lilly, Reader G. A. Peterson, Dr. Kerr, the Goddess of Liberty, the God desses of Peace, Miss Mary Danneman and Plenty, Miss Edna Osborn, the ladies of the W. R. C, ;o little girls who sang and others occupied positions on the platform. Congressman Hawley deliver ed a splendid oration that has been the subject of very favorable dis cussion, it was a lorcetui ana polished address, delivered with excellent effect, and was warmly received. Taken as a whole the day was entirely satisfactory and every one seemed happy and well pleas ed. The afternoon events were all pulled off according to program and were very interesting and amusing. They included a po tato race, sack race, hose race. old man's foot race, bicycle race, catching the greased pig, and other events. The day closed with a grand ball at Taylor's hall and skating at the rink, and in the "wee sma' hours of Fridav morning peace and quiet once more fell over the town, and the celebra tion of 1907 was but a memory, l ne prize winners in the va rious events of the afternoon were: Potato race, F.
