CORDIALLY REcEIvED.-Mr. 1890
was ushered into Corvallis few
minutes after - o'clock on Tuesday
night last by the ringing of nearly
every church bell, the blowing of
several steam whistles, and ex-
plosions of numerous bombs, fire
crackers, firing of guns, etc. A
large number of people were yet
on the streets owing to the late
hour of the ending of the drama
given by the amateur society, and
all helped make merry the occa-
sion. Truly there is always one
time in year when you are per-
fectly free to open yourself to wild
ness-that is during the first hour
of new year. When Old Sol

AN ELEGANT TINE PIECE.-The
manufacturers of the "gold and

several prizes to be given with
certain number of the shirts of
their make that were sold. With
every one disposed of chance
was given IN a drawing to take
place at some appointed time and
the one who drew the lucky num-
ber, of course, won the watch.
On Tuesday last, W. E. Paul, of
this city, was showing his friends
how luck had favored him by
making his ticket the lucky one at
the drawing which took place in
Stocks store on that day. The
watch is a very handsome gold
one, and it proves one fact-that
w. E. has had at least one
clean shirt during the past twelve
months.

AMATEURs.-The drama :'Eoi!ed,"
presented on Tuesday evening
by some of. the agricultural col
leg, students, in the city opera
house. was largely attended by the
citizens here. As nearly every one
has heard that it proved to be
quite a success On the part of the
amateurs there is no need of Civ
ing a long criticism. In some por-
tons Of the different scenes the
acting could have been greatly i'm
proved but only those having more
experience and training could bet
ter it any. The persons taking
the leading characters were Miss
Jessie Waggoner, Miss Annie
Allen, Miss Sarah Harris, Henry
Allen. Chester Avery, G. S. Paul,
and A. S. Addition. The net pro-
ceeds of the entertainment were
something over $55.

special dispatch from Coe Station,
on the eastern extension of the

intelligence that all the forces of
men engaged in construction have
been compelled to stop work on
account of a heavy fall of snow.
A force of $50 tracklayers arrived
from the front last night and Or
man & Crooks men will arrive in
few days. The snow may not
delay the work many weeks, and
the contractors will leave all their

snow goes off. 1t is now six feet

NOVEL LADvERTIsING.-Consider-
able merriment was caused not
long since at Tacoma by the novel
method of advertising adopted by
the Humbolt House. corner of
Fourteenth and A streets. One
day a man was hired to parade a
wheelbarrow with but one brick in
it, all day, and his behavior was
so outside the ordinary that he
fooled even the police. In the
morning this man took eight bricks
and left one at each corner from
Twelfth to Fourteenth street on
Pacific avenue. Then with one
brick in his barrow he started on
the rounds. The first time he
came to a brick he stopped, de-
liberately placed his brick on the
ground, replaced it with the other,
looked at his watch and moved on
the same as before, at the next cor
ner the operation was repeated.
He refrained from answering any
questions, and kept on his rounds
in the same way until he came to
the corner of Fourteenth street
when he quietly went down to the
Humbolt House, entered the bar,
bought and paid for a drink, only
to repeat the same performance
over again. He was arrested for
being crazy; but was released and
the next day appeared with his
wheelbarrow and big Humbolt
House placard. The newspapers
talked about the crazy procedure
and gave hotel notoriety it had
never heard before.

New SYsTEM.-The new style of
arranging the box sheet for reserv-
ed seats in the opera house here,
as gotten up and kept by G. L.
Roberts. the jeweler, is a great i'm
provement over the old system.
Gum paper is used upon which the
diagram of the sections, rows, and
seats, is drawn, and when seat is
sold with reserve the original
number is cut from the gummed
sheet and attached directly onto
the ticket, thus preventing any
'second SALE" 1t was brought
into use On Wednesday night at
the Lindsay theatre and showed
how nicely it worked. When you
purchase reserved seats here
after there will always be surety
of being able to occupy them
without entering a protest.

NO MORE COLORED STUDENTS.
The Maryland Law School Decides to
Bar Them Out Entirely.

The Maryland Law School of Baltimore has
determined that it will admit no more colored
students. Last year two colored students,
Cummins and Johnson, the first who ever at
tended lectures there, were graduated with
high honors. Their presence at the school
caused considerable amount OF friction
among the white students and the faculty. After
their graduation two more colored students,
W. Ashbie Hawkins and John L. Dozier, ap-
piled for admission and were received. They
have been at the university one year and have
been notified by John P. Poe. on the part OF
the regents. that they cannot return. Hawkins
says that one reason originally given for the
objection to his return that his record In
his studies was not such to justify his re-
tenton, but that he failed Ill only one subject
out Of six. The other reason. which was sub
sequenty given as the principal one. was that
the white students Of the law, medical and
dental departments OF the university sent a
petition to the faculty protesting against the
admission of any colored students to the law
school. MIR. Poe says that there had been con-
siderable opposition on the part OF the white
students and theboard ofregents concluded that
1t would be unwse to endanger the school or
jeopardize its interests by any longer allowing
colored students to attend the schooi.

SECRETLY MAKING POWDER.
Disclosures Made by an Investigation of
an Explosion.

Col. Arthur Ford, who is one Of the inspect
ors of the British home Office and was ap-
pointed by the government to inquire into the
cause Of the explosion which occurred last Oc-
tober on the premises Of Sir William George
Armstrong, the inventor o: the gun which bears
his pame, has just made his report. The works
OF Sir ". &. Armstrong Il Company are situ-
ated in Elswick on the Tyne, IN the western
outskirts of New Castle, and the accident re-
suited in the loss of life Of several men en-
ployed by the firm. as we'll as serious injuries
to others. The report Of Col. Ford brings a
grave indictment against the company. which,
having encountered several delays in obtaining
a license for the manufacture OF quick firing
powder, hoodwinked the government by say
ing that it no longer required a license, while
all the time it was wilfully and surreptitiously
evading tho law, and. worse still, went on Sc
cretly making powder for foreign governments,
which would never have been permitted by the
authorities. The report goes on to add that it
would be Difficult. to meet with a more DELHI
crate. fragrant case of contraband manufacture
and the Armstrong Company ought to be held
responsible crimnally for the accident 1t
concludes by recon mending the prosecution Of
the company.
