That the property owners of Lyon

in the matter of installing cluster
lights became known this morning
when the matter was formally taken
up with Mayor Gilbert. If the plans
of the Lyon street property owners
materialize that street will be the best
lighted thoroughfare in Albany with
in the next thirty days. Cluster lights
will be installed throughout the entire
business district and an effort will
be made to extend the system from
First street to the Southern Pacific
depot. The business men of Lyon are
putting forth their best efforts to have,
the system installed before any action
is taken by the First street property
owners.

or early this morning, blew op-

money. The loss is estimated to
be about $1500 including the
damage to the safe and store. The
safe is a complete wreck. It
has not been ascertained what
the burglars used. The store
was in a turmoil this morning.
Only a few people heard the ex-
plosion as it was muffled.
The burglary was apparently
committed bv two men, who
were evidently familiar with the
conditions. The authorities are
chasing down every available

BORROWEe PANAMA HAT
10 HOIST ON FUG STAFF
Manager Meyer of the Bligh thea-
madc reference to his eleven weeks' j ter,-was the victim of an imposition
trip on a steamboat on the Missouri
river when he came to Oregon. He
declared that w lithe present pro
gress the most wonderful age is iust
ahead.
"The purpose of education is to
take students in time of their leisure
and try to fit them for all ofi these
things. The students in Oregon are
at the center of things on the ground
floor and should be patient, prepare
thoroughly, and then when fully
ready earn money, enjoy more, and
bring more to pass for all the rest of
life double, triple" and even ten fold
what conlfl be done without a thor
ough education. A thorougly trained
business man can do about ten times
as much in a day as others. The col
lege should give you a provisional
working theory of life general work
ing plan and the ability to put it in
to effect."
this morning when Harry Wilkins,
of- the Dawson drug store, borrowed
from him a Panama hat.
Wilkins did not tell Meyer what he
wanted the hat for but it later de
veloped, when Meyer spied his hat
attached to the end of a flagstaff bear
ing a flag, while Wilkins was endea
voring to attach it to the front of the
drug store.
A small crow1 had gathered around
to watch the placing of the flag staff,
when Meyer came up.
i "This is the dickens of a way to
do a tellow s hat. said Meyer.
Then the joke was on him, as Wil
kins told of how he had secured the
hat without informing Meyer what
he wanted it for. EventiuVy the hat
was hoisted with the flag staff.
