Slakes moneys a3 SUdar &fiht For the fi;M time in ten years the i ot ball team of the Oregon Agricultural Cc liege Satmdav tri ntnued over the University of Ortgon. A well-directed place kick by tullback Wolfe, early in the second half, won the game tor the visitors and although Oie goi fought desperately to cross the goal line, her efforts were futile. - Nfvcr before in the history of Noith west football has a game bten played that called forth such a magnificent display of strength and skill. It was spectacular from whistle to whistle, abound ing with plays that caused the spectators to hold their breath in wonder and then reak " forth with theering that made the wel kin ring. v Corvallis won because of better! work at critical times aDd because f costly fumbles by Oregon. Wolie's kick from placement fol- owed a fumble by 'Oregen on her own 30-yard line. In'a gen eral way umay be said the teams were evenly matcned, although members of the University team and their followers treelv admit the score of 4 to o just about represents the relative strength of the two elevens. The game was witnessed by 4x00 people, the largest crowd ever assembled, at Ibe Oregon in-, tercollegiate game. Excursions were runt'rom Corvallis, Albany, Cottage Grovw and other neigh boring towns. Local business houses were closed during the game and the citizens of Eugene turned out en masse to cheer f"r Oregon. The Oregon rooters did effective work,, as did those of the Agicu tural College. The latter were attended bv the Cadet Regiment band of 35 pieces, while the Eugene Military band furnished music for Oregon. , Although rivalry was keen and enthusiasm ran high, a soirit of fairness and good sportsmanship existed throughout the contest. Corvallis has nothing but praise for Oregon's splendid team, and Oregon has the same feeling lor the victors. The friendly feeling engendered today served to re store the friendship that existed between the two colleges piior to the unpleasant incidents last year. Nobody in Eugene begrudges the Corvallis victory, and there are no sore spots on either side. Coach Norcross is given great credit for his work in turning bat a winning team, but there is no unfriendly criticism for the Ore gon coaches. Trainer Hay ward's men stood the strain of the battle better than the Aggies did. for the terrific pace told on the visit ors in the last stages of the game. Oregon missed a number of op portunities to tie the score or win the game but lost them through the fortunes of football. Moullen tried two place-kicks and Clark attempted a dropkick but without success. Ccjeman bad a golden chance to score after receiving a forward pass but was tackled from behind by the fleet-footed Rinehart.' The game ended with Oregon struggling desperately to cross the Corvallis goal line. Moullen, who had replaced Clark at fullback, pounded the line for six successive downs, car rying the ball more than 20 yrds and landing in on the ' visitors' 20-yard line. It was here that MoulJen's second place-kick was attempted. Corvallis then kicked the ball down the field and out of danger. Moullen played a sensa tional game at all times, as did Pinkhain, Oregon's left tackle The absence of Arnspiger, huw- ever, weakened the Oregon hn. Taylor, theTreshmau halfback, was Oregon's .most consistent groand-gainer. Quarter-back Kuykendall played brilliantly, his running in of punts being one of the features of the game. Clark! did good work at fullback; uis punting w.s hardlv as effec tive as was mat or woire. . Cap tain Moores ws-senective in tack ling under pnnts. Oregon used the Idaho spreat for motion with varying success, iimily and Dobbin, the speedy enas, wolte, the punting full back. Captain Pendergrass, who plays right guard, and Right lackle Jamieson were the stars ot the winning team. The runs of Jamieson from his tackle position were very tffec- tive, and the work of Dobbin in smashing the powerful irterler ence hurled at him by the Oregon backs was exceptionally brilliant. vjuartetback Gagnon used good generalship in dnecting his plays. The day was perfect and the field fast. The Corvallis excur sion train, consisting of 17 cais, left tor home in the evening. The Agricultural College rooters made a great demonstration after the game. There was no betting and no wrangling of any kind. The officials were lair and their decisions- met with general ap proval.

Sunday's Oregonian. Almost a Miracle. A good hearted curate who fifiiily- believed that God was con tinually working miracles to en able bim to help the needy and who seldom had a coin in his pocket though he was never de void of the fire of charity in his heait, was accosted one day by a b gger woman. He pleaded utter lack of money and sadly turned aside, but on the mendi cant beseeching him to search his pockets he hopelessly put his hand in one and, to his amazement and joy, found a five shilling piece there. "Another of God's miracles," he exclaimed, and then, address ing the woman: Take it and go in peace." Having told the story a few hours later to his wordly minded vicar and suggested that they should both go down on their knees and render thanks to God, a strange unpleasant light sud denly broke on the mind of the shrewd pastor, who exclaimed in accents not suggestive of thanks giving, "Good Lord, those are my breeches that you've got on!" Ex, , Will Be Done on Time.

The financial panic, the c os ing ot banks and the suspension of railroad building and othei work which is throwing thous ands of men out of employment just as the winter is coming on, mav prove profitable to some people, even if the laboiers them selves find it a hardship not to be lightly endured. For the past two or three years there has been general complaint regarding the scarcity of help in all lines of work, especially on the farms and in the logging and wood choppers' camps through out the state. Wages were so high in 01 her lines that r en could nor. be hired to go to the woods nor onto the farms, where timber was waiting to be cut and taken to the mills, trees felled and made. into fuel, or crops put in orgather- ed, as the season required. The effect in regard to the timber work has been the 'sky ward price of all fuel and in many localities positive suffering for lack of sufficient quantity of wood to burn, at any price. Mill men have been working at a dis advantage from lack of helpers, and farmers have had to pav im mense wages for any help they could get, mere boys often receiv ing a man's wages and board besides, because the crops were going to ruin and the farmer was compelled to have assistance. No one, we believe desirts to see the working man's wages lowered, nor his services less in demand. This class deserves the respect and encouragement of everyone, and it is to be hoped that not a single laboring man in the entire state may find himself out o. profitable employment this winter because of the stringency of the times. Buf it is almost certain that many ot them will be obliged to accept a different kind of work than they have been doing and probably at a lower wage. The farmers will thus be able to get help at a more reasonable rate, the logging camps and wood camps will be supplied and there will be perhaps -as satisfactory condition generally, as a result, as that which has existed for the past year or two. Th s at least s one view of the situation, and being an optimistic view is calcu lated to do no barm. We shall see. the hank the day before the bar c tailed and paid it on our place. '' That was why he was in tbj mood to love everybody in sigh-, Thursday afternoon, and we not blame him. Resolution.

Loses Funds. WHY HE WAS HAPPY. A Bit of a Story and How it End edHis Money was Saved. i "T;here was a delighted man in Corvallis Thursday.. He was a commercial traveler, and during his brief stay in this city one night easily have been led to be lieve that he bad just arrived arrived from Hcppy Valley. Up in Portland a cosy home is being erected and in the Title Guarantee '& Trust Com pany's bank was the sum of several thousand dollars on de posit, to be used in paying for the new residence now in course ot construction. The borne be longs to the commerical man mentioned, and so did the money. In the morning belore reaching this city the traveler heard of the failure in Portland of W.b buk. It came as a lightning stroke from a clear sky. It meant ruin for the commerical traveler, for all bis savings were in that bank for safe keeping until his lawyer should be ready to make payment on the new home. For several hours the traveler attempted to get into telephonic communication with his house in Portland and the delay seemed a year, finally a call was sent in to his own residence and his wife's answer to his frantic- in quiry came : happily over the wires: "No, if isn't lost. The lawyer drew it our money from One thousaui dollars belong ing to the University ot Oregon Associated students is tied up in the Title Guaran tee & Trust com pany's bank, which was declared insolvent last week by Federal Judge Wolverton. The money was the receipts trom the Oregon Idaho football game played in Portland October 26 and was de posited by Manager Grover Kest ly that evening. The money, which was in paper and gold and silver coin, weighed in the neigh hood of 30 pounds, and as the suspended bank was the oply-in . the city open Saturday night Kestly deposited the money for convenience. That the loss will be sorely felt by the university is the state ment made by the Oregon men. With the sum at hand it was ex pected that a large portion if not all of the student body debt would be paid off. No blame for the misfortune is attached to Kestly, since he bad reason to believe the bank was solvent and wanted to take extra precaution tosafeguard the funds. Owing to the fact that Governor Chamberlain's proclamation de claring legal holidays went into effect the following Monday it was impossible to draw the. money out of the institution. However, it is hoped that the students will not loose all of the. money since it will greatly em barrass them in various euitf prises. Oregon Journal, LETTER LIST.
