viii be held at Garden City, which con-
tinuance was granted. 1t is understood

Of pennies as were missing from the bank

Byron G. Leedy.

Hon. Byron G. Leedy, who was
last week installed Master of the
Oregon State Grange for the ensu.
ing term of two years, was born in
Knox county, Ohio, March 1st 1857.
Later he came to Nebraska, and in
1890 he moved to Tigardsville, Ore
gon, where he has since been en-
gagged in fruit growing. He has
from time to time held various posi-
tions of trust in the Oregon State
Grange and in the community
where he resides. Mr. Leedy is a
very prctiacal man with conserva-
tive views on matters going through
the experiment alstage. Heis deeply
interested in the Oregon state agli.
cultural college Of which he becomes
regent by virtue of his Office as
master of the state grange; and he
believes the school will gradually
broaden until its influence will
reach out to every leading
industry in Oregon. It is his
purpose to preserve healthy
financial condition of the grange
which is now out of debt, to extend
its membership, and make the order
more useful to the industrial classes.

A thousand years ago there was

had trouble with ain OK. Be that
as it may, the same creature was in
Corvallis about I o'clock last We'd

ed Bonfire attracted the attention
of the citizens of Corvallis. Every.
body had contributed to the fuel
with the expectation of inspiring
one more yell for the college boys
who enter the intercollegiate con.
test today. There were faces aw-
ry to be sure, but the next day for
ty young men with four strong
teams hauled in half dozens mall
barns making apile forty feet high.
That night the opening salute with
the cannon called the great crowd
together at $50 to witness Miss
Constance Holland apply the torch:
and as the great flames grew and
leaped into the air, the college
band rendered some military music
that mingled magnifcently with
the inspir ng roar of the pageant
that rose on the nightly air. Then
another cannon salute, which was
followed by other college yells quite
as deafening. So it continued for
aa hour till the flames died away.
When all went home as still as the
moon that was tipping the noun
tain to go to her rest.
