A large number of visitors have been about
the college this week, as is usual during the
lrst week of school.
Mr.. Pearson, the brilliant fullback of the
Portland university football team, spent
Sunday at Cauthorn hall, the guest Of Ar

Mr.. Wood, with his wife aud daughter,
visited his son Arthur on Monday.
The band now has drum major, aud a
marked difference is noticed in the way they
conduct themselves on the parade. Joe is
all right, but he says he wishes the girls
would leave him alone when he is on duty.
On Thursday afternoon Lieut.. Dentle1
will take the battalion out to camp This
will be a new experience for the boys, and
they anticipate great time. But as they
arc going for instruction, not for picnic,
their great time will probably consist Of

LAwYER McFADDEN's NEW HOME
DESTROYED.

Tuesday night, for the frat time in about
the residents of Corvallis that fire was on.
On reaching the street one was at loss for a
msment to locate the blaze, but soon q
bright light to the westward told that the
alarm was turned in on account of fire on
College hill. At first it was thought by
many to be either the college green house
or the residence of Prof. Geo. Coote. How
ever, on reaching the scene, it was found
that the magnificent new residence of ex-
Mayor McFadden Yves mass of fames and
owing to the headway the flames had at
tanned, and, also, to the entire lack of water
protection in the vicinity of the burning
building.
There seems to be no doubt that the fire
was of incendiary origin. Tuesday evening
after finishing work Messrs. Baker and
Barnhardt, who were employed in building
the structure, swept out the Building, and
before leaving ii had carefully fastened
all windows and doors. On this account
it is supposed the fieads were unable to gain
an entrance to the house, and SO applied the
match to the exterior, after having first sat
urated same with coal oil. At any rate, the
flames were first noticed on the south side,
or rather south west corner of the dwelling
and simultaneously with the bursting forth
of the blaze several of the college students
claim to have seen two men sneaking away
from the scene. That kerosene was used
is evidenced by the fact that the flames ran
exceedingly high from the first discovery of
the fire, and alse, from the rapid spread of
the blaze, as seemingly but instant had
elapsed until the entire structure was en-
veloped in seething mass of fame. Owing
to the intense heat, the flames were soon
communicated to fruit house situated some
distance to the south of the dwelling For
tunately, however, quantity of paints and
oils. stored therein, were removed to a
place of safety before ths fruit house began
burning
The building was a largs two story frame
structure, and was rapidly nearing compile
ZION. The carpenter work had been finished
with the exception of two or three hours
work that was to have been done yesterday
morning. The clothing and exterior paint
ing had also been completed, and within a
few weeks would have been ready for occu-
pancy. The loss will not be under 50, 500.
Fortunately, however, the judge had 81, coo
of insurance in the Continental placed with
f. E. Wilson about three weeks ago. At
the time of the fire Mr.. McFadden was in
Salem, attending to some legal business be-
fore the supreme court. An attempt was
made to communicate with him Immediately
after the fire, but it was found impossible to
locate him, and not until his arrival in Cor.
wallis, Wednesday noon, was he aware of
the loss he had sustained during bis brief
absence from the city.

GOT -FOUR YEARS.

Less than month ago Frank Marshal
was released from the Benton county Jail,
after having served 40-day sentence for
the crime of indecent exposure. Since
gaining his liberty he has been convicted
in Lane county ON charge of rape and Is
now in the penitentiary serving four
years term in expiation of his crime. His
exploits are told by the Albany Democrat
as follows:
Sheriff johnson, Of Lane county, passed
through Albany this noon for Salem with
Frank Marshal, who was sentenced this
morning at o'clock TO the psnitentiary for
attempt at rape. Marshal will be remem
bered as the thing who insulted MIRA. AL.
phin on the steel bridge several months
ago. He was also imprisoned in Corvallis
for indecsny committed near the Cloverdale
school, About three weeks ago ho went to
Lane county uhere he tried to commit rape
on both little girl and woman, and it was
for this he was arrested and promptly sent
to the penitentiary. As he went by the
name of John Brown, his identity was not
known until this noon, when Chief of 2, :
lice Lee recognized him as Sheriff johnson
took him to Salem. Marshal is one of the
lowest curs that ever walked street and
deserves a life sentence, as society will
never be safe with such a fiste at large.

Identity Discovered.

For some time past We have heard un-
complimentary remarks about Times cor
respondent writing from Monroe under the
supposed nom de plume of '.Big Foot. -
These comments have been provoked, not on
account Of the lies he tells, for liars are
plenty, but on account of the apparent
pointlessness of his efforts, and aimlessnsss
Of his criticisms. 1t Was discovered dur.
ing the last rainy spell that he is sailing un-
der no false colors, but is entitled to the
name he bears, having bson known AZ Big
Foot on the Siletz, reservation, where his
relatives reside. File probably escaped dur
ing the Buford administration and has not
been missed by the present agent. As he is
the only correspondent from Monroe, it is
hoped he will not be molested.

But vain thy tears my virgil to recall
Him from the Gods, who only lent

Low lies our friend; lost to thec-to

All! were thy music more potent than the

Nor life to that chill. pallid' form re-

ANEW RESORT.
A temperance saloon is = business for
which there has been strong demand in
Corvallis for several years-a place where
the boys. and even men, might congrsgate
evenings for social game of billiards, pool
or cards, without being compelled, from the
very nature of things, to frequent those
haunts wherein liquors are sold, and where
the rowdies and toughs are won't to congre.
gate. Such place, we are pleased to au-
nouace to our readers, is soon to be opened,
and by two of the best known and most ac-
comodating young men in town. Their
namss are Ed Zeis and G. NJ. Simpson and
the firm name will BE Zsis & Simpson.
They will occupy the Zeis building oppo.
sit. Miller's clothing store and expect to bs
open for business on or about July lst
The building has been recently renovated
and repainted throughout and now presents
a very attractive appearance, both inside
and out. Inside will be found full and
complete line of cigars, tobacco, and smo-
kers' sundries, and also all kinds of sofs
drinks, such as lemonade, soda water, etc:
Pool, billiard and card tables will be pro
vided, SO that amusements at this resort
will be as diversified as are usually found
in such places, even in the larger cities. It
Is the intention of the proprietors- to ran
the business in firstclass style. They ex
psct to eater only to the best class of trade,
and hood!umism and disorderly conduct
will not bs tolerated Such a business
as these young men have in mind of con-
ducting will Fill a long-felt want and the
push and business sagacity which these
gentlemen possess is a very good evidence
that it will be success both financially
and otherwise.

LUMPS OF SILVER.
Stolen Property I'm the Hands Of De-
tectives at City Hall.

About three weeks ago a man went into
the Hub Loan Company and disposed OF
lot OF silver. The man came again about
10 days ago with more, and when the
returns of the company were made TO the
% olice department the authorities began
to think that some one was stealing from
manufacturing silverware company.
The detectives were set to work. They
calleo upon the Gorham Company and re-
quested officers in all the cities and towns
where silverware is made to see IL any
silver was missing. Last night Detective
Parker heard that the silver came from
the Gorham Company, and was probably
a lot that had been taken about the time
that Mcpherson was charged with stealing
silver from the milling department Of
that company, as the silver was in about
the same shape, small bricks weighing
from IL to 10 pounds each.
A man named Robert Burns has been
arrested for stealing the silver, but II is
probable that this Burns has only acted
as "go between"

CIVIL CASES
Heard and Vari ously Disposed Of In
the District Court Today

In the civil division of the district
court this morning one OF the cases that
took some time to dispose OF was that OF
John NJ. Dawes Il Company against David
X. w. Briggs. The plaintiff, who was
carrying on the trade of house-painting,
sued TO recover for work done on three
houses at the request OF the defendant.
The latter claimed that the work was not
done as required by the contract in first
class manner, and he introduced several
witnesses to prove his contention. One OF
these said the work was not good work,
in fact, he said, the houses looked no
better than one of the court room walls.
Now this wall is not very agreeable TO
the eve, for light and shade do not melt
upon il in that strange and pleasing style
that they should. The experts remark
caused Judge Sweetland to ask what was
the matter with the wall he referred to,
but the witness could not tell. The
plaintiff then contended that the carpen-
ter work on the houses was SO poorly
done he could not make the houses look
good no matter how hard he tried.
r. G. Pierce, for the plaintiffs, wanted
the case postponed tor week, as the
claims that the work had not been prop
erly done was surprise to his clients.
Mr.. Henshaw, on behalf of the plaintiff,
opposed the motion and the court de-
MED it.
At the conclusion Of the testimony snd
of the arguments OF the counsel the q lrt
decided that the owner of the houses mad
accepted the work, but that as tn. re was
evidence that the work was not as II should
be he would give judgment for the plain
tiffs for $50, a deduction OF S25 from the
contract price.
A case that was TO have come to trial
today, but which was settled by an
agreement that judgment should be en-
terd for the plaintiff for $500 and costs,
was that OF John j. Osborne, against the
Union Railroad Company. Osborne, on
the 18th OF May last, was driving horse
attached to a covered wagon in which
was a large amount OF confectionery,
along Cranston street, when q trolley car
struck his wagon. He was thrown out,
slightly bruised, and his sweets badly
jammed. Through his attorney, Ed. de
V. O'Connor, ne brought suit against
the company with the result above noted.
