Mr.. w. 7. Bryan, of our circles, is the
G. B. nominee for sheriff. Mr.. Bryan has
but one eye. but he has put it to business.
The protracted meeting is progressing
Bishop Castle is preaching some powerful
discourses; but his health is partially i'm
paired.
A man who boarded with C. B. Wells for
few days took post-haste departure with
paying. The delinquents conscience will
sometime trouble him, and Mr.. Wells will
never credit him again-that is the result of
reputation. e
On the road from Corvallis to this place,
on last Saturday night. at about the hour of
II, two iron-clads coming from Dr. Simms'
lecture, were actually caught in the act of
making love to each other They seemed
to try their medicine on each other first, as
the physician treated his wife. Look out,
ladies.
The Kearneyites are making the China
house on G street the 'tsand lots of Philo-

one of them came near taking the Crucible

If the railroad is completed; and if I am
to represent the feelings of this people until
next summer, do now cordially invite the
citizens of Benton county in general to come
out and spend the next fourth of July with
us. We have nice grove, and we really
appreciate the privilege of being host once
in while, instead of being guest all of the
time. Let us have the next celebration near
Philomath What think the citizens of Cor
wallis?
From some of our papers one would infer
that Phiiomath is disagreeable, unpleasant
little town. 1 have not lived here as long
as some, and will not, for my part say. But
my aunt, Mrs. G. w. Klsor, who keeps a
restaurant and sets the best tables in this
part of the county, has lived here many
years, and will live here many more, | ex-
pect. That's good evidence, and it's favor
able, for we want enterprising people here !;
and she is satisfied, too, because she has too
much women's rights about her to stay if she
wasn't. This is the with others, /
judge. I know the neighbors are generally
neighborly, and, of course, the society is
pleasant, with the exception of few discon-
tented politicians, who have become dissat-
isied with the principal of the school. This,
however, can amount to nothing, as their
plans are too superficial. understand them
all. They are too radical. Grants out of
office wandering around, and they want to
promote him to the presidency of the insti-
tutlon. Grants the man.

FRE.-Monday last, at the hour of noon
Mrs. Jerusha Smiths barn was discovered
on fire. The alarm was sounded and the
fire department responded promptly. But
the flames had got too firm a hold upon the
structure to be suddenly extinguished. By
well directed efforts her residence was saved
In short time the barn was entirely de-
stroyed, together with quantity of lard
stored therein. The fire was occasioned by
one of Mrs. Smiths little boys and one of
Mr.. Rowland's playing with matches in the
barn. Those two boys ought to be forcibly
reminded that it is unsafe to play with fire
or matches. Loss $780, No insurance.
