Married In Portland.

With three other couples, A. E. Cameron
and Miss Eva A. Hiatt, of this city, were
united in marriage st the exposition in Port
land Monday night. Speaking Of the cere-
monies, the Oregonian Of Tuesday says:
SIT seemed 10 be a case of progressive
courage with the grooms. who were all tall,
good looking young men. The first did not
kiss his bride at the conclusion of the core
monv; the second made somewhat nervous
move to do so, but hesitated and lost the
opportunity; the third saluted his bride, a
very beautiful brunette, frankly on the lips,
and the audience applauded with great
heartiness. All this probably encouraged
the last bridegroom, for, when the minister
had pronounced the final and weighticst
word, the young mani with frmness, DELHI
Grafton and fervor, embraced and kissed the
young lady, amid the deafening cheers of the
assemblage."
Corvallis people are wondering in what
order the weddings occurred, in order to be
able to determine whether Ellsworth was one
of the bashful grooms, or one of those who
possessed tho temerity to kiss his bride fol
the edfca.ion of ten thousand people.

WANTED GUNS, AND GOT THEM.

G. Hodes, the gunsmith, is much per
/ turbed owing 10 his inability to keep his stor'
open for customers, both day and night, and
thereby hangs tale. Monday night he
closed his store about $50, and while resting
peacefully in the arms of Morpheus, some
person or persons forcibly gained entrance
| to his place of business, and took therefrom
one Winchester rife No. A, one shotgun,
| four 3S-caliber revolvers, one 32-caiiber pis-
tol. a pocket kniie, besides several boxes OF
cartridges. The ammunition taken for use
in the pistols and rife were Of the right size,
but the shotgun cartridges that are missli G
are No. 10, while the missing shotgun IS
No. II. From appearances it is evident
that the thieves were not looking for money,
for several dollars in change were left un-
touched, although the money. was in plain
view. It is Mr.. Hodes' custom to keep
his small change on shelf im-
mediately in front of his stock of car
tridges and he was surprised that the money
offered no temptation to the burglars. APP
paren.ly the robbers knew just what they
wanted and were not particularly greedy in
their desires. There were dozens OF rifles,
shotguns, pistols and knives in the store, yet
only the articles enumerated above were
taken. They, however, seemed to know
exactly what sized weapons were needed, for
the wrappe rs had been taken off OF several
of the guns which were left under the coun-
ter.
The general impression is that the thieves
are in sympathy with the prisoners i'll the
county Jail, who it is believed are being en-
couraged and assisted to regain their liberty.
OF late there has been deal Of maneuver-
ing both inside and outside of the Jail and
the officers are strongly of the opinion that
the prisoners are determined to break out.
Once they are successful guns and ammunition
will be necessary to defend themselves in
the event an attempt were made to recaptu-e
them. The weapons taken Monday night
will doubtless be found in the possession of
Sc"tt, Holcomb, ct al should they be sue
ccssful in their efforts to escape.

EDITOR HoFER,s LECTURE.

Col. E. Hofer, editor of the Capital Jour
nal, addressed large audience at the college
chapel Friday night ON the subject of 'En-
glish Literature" Mr.. Hofor has a pleas
ing manner and is earnest and dforceful in his
expressions. He evincedg familiarity with
his subject and presented his points enter
tainingIy and instructively.
Mr.. Hofer introduced the subject with a
definition of it, and reviewed the story OF
literature in general and compared the origin
and growth of the Latin literature with that
Of the Anglo-Saxon. The literature OF the
Anglo-Saxon began to develop with the
adopt On oil the Christian religion and was
Of religious temperament. Said the speak
er: The Anglo-Saxon race has always been
noted for its high morality agt Observance OF
the family ties, even before the introduction
of Christianity. The Latin races, on the
other hand, were loose in their. morals and
were not restrained .bv the marriage ties.
The literature of the two races was as differ
ent in moral tone as the people differed in
moral tone and action.
A broad and complete education is only
obtained through a thorough study of Eng
lish literature; and the speaker remarked that
in Corvallis were libraries ifat possessed all
the necessary books FROM which complete
knowledge Of English literature might be
had. He said that read culture implied a
thorough acquaintance with aies sliterature OF
our race. He urged thestudenrs To be choice
in their selections and said That devotion to
the writings OF the better authors would
soon eradicate any desire for cheap and
trashy fiction.
The Bachelor Qunrtettes sang a pleasing
selection before the lceturerasas introduced,
and received a hearty encore.

"The Burglar

1t is to be regretted that the production of
''The Burglar" at the Opera House last
Thursday evening, did not bring forth a
larger audience. Only few years ago,
"The Burglar" done bv such competent per-
formers and in the sumptuous manner of the
recent production, would have thronged the
play house and been acclaimed decided
hit. The play, so far from being tedious.
artificial or conventional, is elegant in diction
ard contains suticiency of inspiriting epi-
sode. 1t teaches a lesson, points a moral
and starts thought pertinent to.tha life and
affairs of the moment. We can not escape
the con viction that the change that works the
failure to please OF productions like the
one under notice lies not in the plays them
selves. nor the players-but the public. 1t
is the fish, not the angler, that must choose
the bait.
Never, with the possible exception OF
Thomas Keene's rendition of Hamlet" has
such thoroughly excellent performance, in
dramatic as well as in an artistic sense, been
seen in Corvallis.
The part of "Bill Lewis" is dramatic
one Mr.. Moore is to be commended for moi
, tearing passion to tatters. He invests the
character with Interest, and acts with Ger.
tain ease and quiet power. A special wore
of praise is due the little tot, whose rendi
| ton of the difficult role of "Editha," wa
