EXCURSION SATURDAY.
PLEASURE SEEKERS ENJOY A PLEASANT
DAY AT THE FRONT.

| DAY AT THE FRONT:
On Saturday morning at seven
o'clock an excursion train consisting OF
five cars and baggage car, under the
supervision of the Congregational
church left the city depot for the front
on the Oregon Pacific railroad. There
was jolly crowd of about $50 of our
citizens on board including the men,
bers of the Congregational Sunday
school and the Corvallis brass band.
From the number of lunch baskets, fish
ing rods, etc., taken everybody had evi-
IDENTIFY prepared themselves to have a
good time, and in this they were not
disappointed, except perhaps as to the
fishing part. We did hear that one
man, after casting the fly for several
hours in the numerous ripples OF the
stream where speckled beauties abound
SO plentifully, (D succeeded in allur-
ing just one into his basket thereby
saving the reputation of the entire
party.
The train, after making short stops
at Albany, Gates, Mills City, and
Browns Mills, arrived at Bridenbush,
about miles from the end of the track,
at IL o'clock, where the lunch baskets
and baggage were taken off. Most of
the party got off here, some remained
on the train and went about three
miles further up the road to Goes, the
last station on the line, returning to
the picnic grounds at one o'clock.
Bridenbush station is situated at the
junction of beautiful mountain stream
by that name and the Santiam river and
is fine place for picnic. After par
taking of lunch of which most of the
excurslonists were abundantly supplied
the party scattered out for various
amusements of the day, some with
their fishing outfits, some strolling
through the woods after wild flowers,
of which there were many varieties,
while others with their best girl found
a shady seat on the bank of the river
to watch the clear sparkling water as l.
dashed over the rocks at their feet.
Music was furnished at intervals dur
ing the day by the band, and Cameron
& Co. supplied the thirsty with lemon
ade, soda water, and ice cream. At 4
o'clock the train started for home, arriv-
ing in Corvallis about 7:30 o'clock.
The scenery along the road for
grandeur and beauty cannot be excell-
ed any where in Oregon. The San
tam river along which the route follow
ed for the entire distance is IL continual
ton of cascades and deep and narrow
channels cut through the rocks by the
continual wear oe ages. The water is
as clear as crystal. The banks are
covered with fine growth of timber
and before many years this viii be
great numbering section.
Altogether the excursion was grand
success and those who went only re-
gret that the day was not several
hours longer.

THE STREET CARS ROLL.
TIE CORVALLIS STREET RAILWAY COMPLETED
AND IN OPERATION.

TIE CORVALLIS STREET RAILWAY COMPLETED
AND IN OPERATION.
s'All aboard for Jobs Addition!" Cor
wallis now has full fiedged street railway
in operation. The road is mile long and
runs from the postofice along Main street
to Monroe, thence west to the public
schools and to jobs Addition. j. E.
Mccoy, the contractor, commenced the
work of laying the track about five weeks
ago and on Wednesday of this week had it
completed to the addition. On Thursday
morning at o'clock this car was run over
the track for the first time in order to see
that everything worked right and allow the
horse to become familiar with its new
work. At IL o'clock all was in readiness
for the trial trip, and the directors, men,
bers of the press and several others who
held special invitations boarded the car at
the postoffice and were wheeled along at
the rate of six miles an hour to Jobs
Addition. Here Manager Ralston Cox
took the party through Central Park, and
showed them over Jobs Addition and ex-
planned to them its advantages, and the
great opportunities afforded for investment,
after which the party returned to the city.
In the afternoon the car made regular trips
for the benefit of the public and will con-
binue to run regularly hereafter. Mr.. Mccoy
will be ready to turn the road over to the
company Saturday and as it seems to be in
good condition it will no doubt be accepted
The promoters of this enterprise are de-
serving Of much credit, as they have
worked under many difficulties from the
start and were even laughed at for under
taking such an enterprise, but they put up
the money without asking .favors and built
the road and it will in time be great
benefit to Corvallis, as well as paying in
vestment to it's owners.
