Party of Albany Business Men
Visit There in Interest
of Chautauqua.
CORVALLIS ASSURED
HEARTY CO-OPERATION
Big Effort Being Made to Make
Coming Assembly Largest
Ever Held Here.
Several Albany business men went
over to Corvallis yesterday morning
by automobile where they were the
guests of the Corvallis Commercial
club at dinner. The trip was made in
the interest of the Albany Chautauqua
and the primary intention of the trip
was to invite the Corvallis people
through the Commercial club to co
operate vith the Albany people in
the holding of this sessions assembly,
which resulted in the members of the
Corvallis Commercial club assuring
the Albany boosters of the hearty co
operation of the people of that city.
Accordingly Corvallis people will be
much in evidence during the coming
Chautauqua and it is probable that
many people of that city will establish
headquarters on the grounds.
''Similar expeditions will probably be
made to other cities in this section
by leading business men of the city
as it is the desire of President Ellis
to inake this seasons Chautauqua one
of the largest assemblys ever held
here.
While at Corvallis yesterday the
Albany men gained the promise of
college authorities that the O. A. C.
would establish headquarters on the
Chautauqua grounds during the as
sembly of an exhibit of its cxtention
work. This is destined to be an in
teresting exhibit as similar ones have
been, installed at various shows and
fairs during the present season and
have proved to be intensely education
al and interesting to everybody as the
college extension work embodies a
wide Fcopc of diversified farming.
Mrs. Carrie Driver Wants Di
vorce from James Driver on
Grounds of Non-Support.
Charging that her. husband, James
V. Driver, spends all of his money
in saloons, and that he has been a
druni ard fur nline years, having dur
ing that time willfully neglected and
refused to care for her, Carrie I.
Driver has instituted a suit in the
Linn county circuit court to dissolve
the bonds of matrimony existing be
tween them.
The couple were married at Spok
ane, July 11, 1899. Mrs. Driver re
moved to Albany a year ago. where
she has since resided and has suc
ceeded in gaining a livelihood for her
self, acquiring personal property of
the value of $1000. In her complaint
she alleges that her husband led a
straight and industrious life for two
years after their marriage, but since
then has been addicted to the drink
habit.
The plaintiff asks for a decree of
divorce and asks that she may retain
her personal property. There are no
children as a result of the marriage.
Attorney J. C. Christy represents the
plaintiff.
Frank C. Needham and Mrs. Lizzie
Rodney, both of Linn county, were
married at Corvallis this week, at the
home of Mr. Cal. Thrasher.
Mrs. Bob Fletcher and son left this
noon for Astoria for a visit at the
home of Mrs. Fletcher's parents, Mr.
and Mrs. Grover Forgey.
Mrs. Frank Kitchen, of Jefferson,
was in the city this afternoon to see
her daughter. Miss Rose Tapper, at
St. Mary's hospital. A week ago an
operation was performed upon her
for appendicitis, and she is doing well.
Mrs. Cox, of Portland, returned
home this morning after a visit with
her son. Dr. W. A. Cox and wife.
The Chautauqua this season lasts
from July 7 to 20 inclusive an.d it con
ceded that one of the best and varied
programs possible has been arranged.
No expense has been spared in se
curing the talent and it is chiefly to
this reason that the support must be
large and in order to demonstrate the
fact that Albany can support the best
talent available and that people of this
section can be afforded the highest
class entertainements that can be se
cured, the members of the oficial board
and others are making the campaign
to make the assembly an unprecedent
ed c'.ICCCSS.
All Bidders Were Present Yes
terday When Papers Were
Presented.
ESTIMATES AVERAGE
APPROXIMATELY $16000
When Completed Building Will
Aggregate Investment of
$26000.
With every bidder present, Chair
man M. H. Ellis, of the library board,
cpencd the bids for the new Albany
public library yesterday afternoon at
4:30 o'clock at his office in the pres
ence of President Hewitt, the build
ing committee and the architect.
The bids were considered relative
to oak finishings, rather than in fir,
i-s the prices were within the prob
able estimate of the money available
for the construction of the building.
The following were the contractors'
estimates in oak finishings: R. D.
Snell, $16,325; A. J. Keep, $15,315;
Blount & Babb, $15,195; John Mc
Chesney, $15,750, McNeil & Hoover,
$15,231, and A. W. McGilvery, $16,
322. Although there were many other
bids submitted, the foregoing are
those to be considered. Some
of the other bids were for portions of
work which if -accepted may pos
sibly have reduced the total cost.
Chairman Ellis stated this morning
that it was a source of much pleasure
ro note that the bids were all within
close range; as this was indicative
that there was real bidding and keen
competition for the contract, which
will be awarded within the next two
or ihree days.
The bids are for the construction
of the building and do not include
heating and lighting fixtures, furni
ture or architect's fees. When the
cost of these matters are added to
the contractor's bill, the cost of the
building will aggregate approximately
$2.000. The lot at the corner of
Third and Ferry streets upon which
i he building will be erected is valued
For weak and puny children, dis
posed to catch cold easily, we recom- '
mend the use of Rexall Vine of Cod
Liver Extract. You don't have to
coax the child to take it because it
does not have the disagreeable taste
of ordinary cod-liver preparations. At
the same time it contains those re
constructive tonic properties of the
fresh Norwegian cod livers so gener
ally recognized by physicians as valu
able in the treatment of all who are
disposed to be weak, anemic, and run
down, or who are liable to catch cold
easily. For more quickly bringing

as a tonic and strength-builder for old
people, specially those with feeble di

use of Rexall Wine of Cod Liver Ex

if you do not find it of assistance in
building your strength and weight, if
you do not find it entirely satisfactory
