OUR SEASIDE LETTER.
OCEAN VIEW COTTAGE,
NEWPORT, July, IA, 80.

NEWPORT, July, IA, 80.
EDITOR; GAzETTE:--Once more we
looking out upon old oceans restless
waves and drinking in the fresh salt air
from these Pacific waters. 1t seems
more stimulating than ever and l really
believe is more exhilerating than the
best of Corvallis beverages. The
weather is clear and during the day the
atmosphere is delicious, while at nj ght
one can sleep soundly and dream
gloriously.
Newport has improved quite good
deal during the past year. Several
new buildings have been erected and
others are in course of construction.
The new steam saw and planning mill
is quite an industry and is kept run
ming to it's fullest capacity. DR.. Bay
ley is building fine residence, one of
the best in Benton county. From my
cottage window [ can count a dozen
new cottages going up, to be owned
and occupied by Albany parties. The
roads and sidewalks have been greatly
improved, making it much easier and
pleasanter for visitors to get around.
The hotels are not crowded as yet,
although quite number of tourists
have arrived. I have not noticed
many Corvallis people as yet. Our
rustling mer chant, George Fish, was
swimming around these waters last
Saturday for some supposed valuable
bait which 1 hope he secured. There
are several camping parties on the
north beach who are enjoying them
selves eating rock oysters and bathing
in the SALTY sea" Of course the fel-
low and his girl are here "acting well
their part" which consists in seeing
nothing but one another. 1t is some
times strange how devoted people be-
come when at the seaside; how they
anticipate each others wants and
how exclusively they devote them
selves to one single object-they ae-
tually fall in love with that one object
and take it home with them.
We noticed our genial grocerman,
Thomas Bell, and his family pitching
their tent under the trees near by, the
other day.
The Bay View House and the Ocean
House are in good shape to welcome
and entertain their guests. They de-
serve liberal patronage as they are max
ing special effort to have visitors
feel comfortable and enjoy them
selves while with them.
This morning the steamer William
cite Valley was waiting outside for the
tide, about ten o'clock she passed in
and is now lying at her dock at va
quina.
Though I have been here but three
days still I feel stronger and better, and
I believe after few weeks rest shall
be ready for another year of stirring
work.
hope to write the GAZETTE more of
q letter next time. Till then good bye.

that has been told among yachtsmen for many a
day, and bit that will interest every American
sportsman, leaked out to-day at the Yale-Atalanta
boat race from the lips of yachtsman who has
known the facts for some time but who was un-
able to keep such good piece of news any longer.
The story is that the sIoop Volunteer is going to
England to race for the Brenton's Reef and Cape
May cups that were won in 1885 by Sir Richard
Sutton's cutter Genesta from the schooner Daunt-
less.
A syndicate of New York and Boston yachtsmen
has been formed; of which General q. j. Paine is
of course member, and in which the names of az
least half dozen yachtsmen figure as well rs that
of Stephen Peabody, feet captain of the New
York Yacht Club. These men have guaranteed all
expenses. A challenge, if not already sent, Is
soon to be forwarded to Mr.. Jameson, whose
Yacht, the 1rex, won both cups from the
Genesta in 1880, in race of $50 miles
from Cowes around the Cherbourg breakwater
and return. That is the course that the
Volunteer will have to sail over when she goes
across after the cups. In the rules governing con-
tests for the Brentons Reef cup the second clause
SAYS: In the event of the cup being held at the
close of the season by foreign yacht. the owner
thereof will be liable to challenge during the sea-
son of the year ensuing for an ocean race over a
course from the Needles, Isle OF Wight to and
around a stake boat off the Harbor of Cher bourg
