The VYillamette ought lo be a sal mon river, if the following indicates anything: , . Eugene Guard: The McKcnzie riv er between Hcndrick's bridge and the Coburg bridge is alive with thousands of salmon, according to Deputy State Game Warden E. C. Hills, who has just completed a trip down the river in a skiff. There are not as many salmon in the rack as usual, but there are more in the river than last year," he stated. 'In many years, 1 have never seen salmon spawn so low down in the river and so many below the racks. For a distance of two miles below Camp Creek, the riffles are litteraly torn up by spawning salmon. It was truly a wonderful sight. There was as many fish in the river at this point as you would expect to find in the racks. The fact that the fish arc spawn ing below the rifles, I believe is due to an extra amount of water in the river resulting; from the excessive rainfall this summer." Mr. Hillis stated that he recently made a trip on the upper Willamette. buTthat he found a thousand salmon in the McKcnzie lo a hundred in the Willamette. Hurrah for Wilson. Decatur. I III..

FOOTBALL SEASON OPENS AT CORVALLIS TOMORROW 0. A. C. Plays Its First Game Under Coach Pipal With M.A.A.C. of Portland. The football season for 1916 will open in Oregon tomorrow when the O. A. C. and Multnomah Club teams line up for battle on the campus grid iron at Corvallis.. It promises to be a hot game, and Coach Pipal's men have a fine chance to win. However, Mult nomah has been practicing hard for a month and the old v-etrans of the game are in fine condition. Last . Saturday the O. A. C. team met defeat at the hands of the Alumni team. However, those who saw the game say that the collegians did well to hold the score to 13 to 7 for. so early in the season. It must be con sidered that the new men, playing a new style of ball, went up against veterans of former years. The writer saw the game and admits that he never saw a better team of vetran Alumni players gotten together. Without practice the old-timers got together, after having their signals and plays sent by mail, and put up in exhibition that would have done credit to a seasoned college team. The old boys were panting for wind at the end of the game, however, and lacked en durance. In the line-up, which con tained 6 former all-Northwest players were Otto and C. Stjtton. Hoerline, Allworth, May, "Admiral" Dewey, Pete Anderson, Williams, and otlwrs of former days. The game tomorrow will start about 2:15, giving Albany people plenty of time to drive over, or take the afternoon tram. The game tomorrow will, give Coach Pipal a better line on his men and a better chance to work out faults ill the team. o Crabtree Man Geo.

HEBREW NEW YEAR BEING CELEBRATED TODAY Local Jews Observe Beginning of Creation; Stores in Cities Closed. Jewis New Years started yesterday, and yesterday and today local He brews are celebrating the 5677th year of the Jewish calendar. It was 5677 years ago that the Jewish religion was first given to the world. The old Testament of todaV is a translation of the Original Jewish Bible. In Portland practically all mer chandise houses are closed, the only large stores remaining open being Meier and Franks, Olds, Wortman & King's and the Eastern Outfitting Co. In New York, Broadway is a de serted village. No business to speak of is transacted during the whole week of the Jewish New Year which is spent in worship. Merchants order ing goods from New York often find to their inconvenience' that nothing will be done during these days. The larger dumber of merchants of Broad way are Hebrews. The Jewsh New Year, as explaned by the book containing the Ten Com mandments and the Thirteen Creeds of the Jewis religion, is as follows: Teershree 1st and 2nd. Rosh Hah-shoh-noh, or the Festi val of the New Year, is to commem orate the creation, of the world. It is the beginning of' the civil year. The name of this festival in our prayers is 'Yom Hah-zec-koh-rone, 'A Day of Memorial,' and in the Bible it is called Yom Te-roo-ah 'A day of the Sound ing of the Cornet.' It is the begin ning of the ten petitional days, during which we should endeavor, by true re pentance, to obtain the mercy of God. that we may be inscribed in the Book of Life." On next Saturday, Oct. 7, another day in the Jewish religion will be ob served. This is the day of the atone ment. It is described as follows: Teshree 10th. ' "Yom Kee-Poor, or the Day of the Atonement, is alio called, the Sarjbath of Sabbaths, and is set apart tor last ing. devotion, confession nd repent ance. God appointed this day to be observed every year as a day of atone ment, on which to afflict our souls, to repent our sins, to form good reso lutions, to renunce all enmity against those who have done us wrong, and seek forgiveness of all those whom we have injured." Pleasing Hold-Up. John Wmzenreid, owner of con siderable property in Springfield, was greatly surprised last evening when accosted by ' a stranger, who called him by name, and upon being assured he had not made a mistake, continued "Seven years ago I hired a horse and buggy from you w-hen you fan a livery stable over on that corner, and I have never paid for them. With these words the stranger handed Mr. Winzenreid $5. and re turned to his automobile and spei away. Mr. Winzenreid was so aston ished he failed to get the man's name, and he has no remembrance of the debt. Springfield cor. in Guard..

HE RACING PROGRAM HAS BEEN FAST All Manner of Attractions Wfer Things For Sight-seer, and Doers. Of special interest to Albany peo- ' le at the state fair yesterday was the . 2:12 trot, won by Bon Guy, owned by , 3. S. Bailey, a resident of Albany for everal years, acd driven by Fred Woodcock, also a resident of Albany or several years. Side by side Bon - Guy and John Mack, a Sacramento horse, traveled for four heats. Mack having the pole the first heat, with . Bon Guy in the field got an advant- . tige he kept,, winning though by only a few inches. In the other three heats Biley's horse had the edge, never mak ing a misstep ana winning eacn oy about a body. Bon Guy, a nine year old, was then sold at auction, bring ing only $300. A 2:20 pacing race was won by a , Walla Walla horse, Joe Buckley. , There was a farmers' race and some runs. i. : Never has there been a better stock , display along all lines, large and at tractive, showing up a great industry here in a manner to make people take notice. Oregonians hardly appreciate what they have. That champion two year junior coy of the world, owned by Jones of Amity, wSs ifmong the ' Holsteins. In 10 months the cow gave over 20,000 pounds of milk, making a . new world's record for her age. Some of the new farm machinery is revelation. It is there, practically demonstrated, covering all fields. On the grounds , arc many side shows with their speilers, after the ... nickles and dimes of the. different kinds of people ' who ; throng the grounds, green, bright and otherwise. Two dancing platforms were cov- ered with rags, and one steps, two steps, three steps and numerous other steos were slung around, while the crowds on the sides gazed with wide open eyes at the exhibition of fantas tic heels and toes. The display of all manner of things under the sun is a splendid one, un surpassed anywhere, a credit to the , state. The state itself is entitled to credit . for showing the workings of the dif ferent state instituions, indusrial school, asylum, he blind, deaf and dumb, and weak minded, of wonderful interest, full of revelatiohs. The county exhibits were the best yet, and Linn county is certainly ' proud of having the second best dis play, led only by Polk, and many de clared the general effect was much the best. It was marked far ahead of . the exhibits in other districts taking first place. , The O. A. C. had some fine displays well demonstrated, speaking for the . work of this institution so close down among the people. "..!., , The attendance this year has been very large, yesterday it was estimated as high as 45,000. " large crowd of. Portland Elks were present yesterday and Albany was well represented. ' -,' The above very commendatory no4 tice of the fair, a splendid one, is not given on account of any courtesies of the fair board, limited to a ticket used 50 cents worth, ground down to one person, after many dollars of free notices of the fair had been given. The man who used a wart for a collar button would be above that, and the most measley barn storming attrac tion aever around would be more ap preciative of the press than the pres ent fair board has bess.
