A Beautiful Staircase.

Mr.. w. o. Heckart has just completed
a new staircase in his residence on 9th
street, and it is as handsome as piece
of parlor furniture. Only Oregon wood
has been used in its construction and the
ornamentation is all hand work. The
newell post is made of curley maple and
is beautiful in design. The panels are
of the same material and finished in the
natural wood, as are the balisters. The
hand rail and portions of the grill are
made of ash and finished to represent
antique oak, while the panels under the
stairs are given the appearance of mahog-
any. The staircase rises in hall of
ample dimensions, from which folding
doors lead to the parlor, sitting room
ard dining room. These can all be
opened, throwing these rooms and the
hall all isto one.
A landing reached by ascending two
steps, has window in front and at the
side, making a cosy corner, which looks
artistic and inviting.

What are the Figures:

How many people Id Coryal
lis, or Benton county for tha
matter, know how much 1ano
belonging to the Agricultural
College adjoins the City OF Cor
wallis? Business men, and even
members of the board OF regents,
have pleaded ignorance of the
exact figures when the question
was put to them during the past
few days as to the number oi
acres in the college farm. About
a week ago stranger IN the
city, making investigation for
the purpose of determining
whether to locate here and send
his children to school, asked
numerous questions concerning
the college. One man told him
the school was under the domi-
nation of the Southern Method
ist church, and so acres was the
extent of its land holdings in
Benton county. The pamphlet
issued by the Citizens League
says 275 acres; quite a discrep-
ancy.
The GAZETTE man has looked
over the records in the Office OF
the county recorder, and these
seem to show that the college
property adjoining Corvallis
comprises 1869 acres. The
catalogue issued by the college
states that its grounds comprise
1851 acres. The question
arises, what are the correct fig
ures.
1t is quite probable that there
is general lack of knowledge on
matters relating to the college.
There is one simple way to cor
rect this condition of affairs, and
place the people of this county
in a position to enlighten strang-
ers concerning our great institu-
ton of learning: A neat adver-
tisement, containing facts and
figures relating to the college,
concisely compiled, and made to
in the columns of the lo-l
cal papers every month of the
year.
Such data would make inter-
esting reading for subscribers in
other portions of the country
who anticipate moving to Cor
Wallis to take advantage of the
offered by the COL
lege.

that absence makes the heart grow fond
er. The applause began at the airst in
timation on the part of the wife of the
prosecuted parson that she was an hon
est woman and would have none of the
villain, and it continued with scarcely an
interruption all through the long and
weary separation of the good man and
his wife, through the scene at the park
where they are nearly reunited, through
the biting poverty and bitter woe which
is the lot of both, and to the triumphant
finish. The play is crowded as full of
heart interest as it will hold, but there is
room for comedy here and there and the
audience was as prodigal of its laughter
as it was of its applause.
The company which is presenting the
play this year is if anything stronger
than that of last season.

and there were games, conversation

T. W. Dilley was present with an

joyous occasion for the thirty odd
