Sporting Incidents

In the past week a lumber
of sporting incidents out ofthe ordi-
dary have occurred in this vicinity,
Elsewhere will be noted the ac-
count Of Charley Belyeu's capture of
a China pheasant On the main street
of Corvallis. Telt Burnett also tells
about having slipped up on and
catching a-two-thifds grown pleas
that imagined itself securely hid
den, but when he undertook to
place the bird in bis hunting coat
with the view. of taking it home
alive, 1t gave tremendous flop and
escaped Telt's clutches. The bird
sailed oft of range before the hum
ter could bring his gun to bear.
Chief Alexander has a somewhat
similar story to tell. He states
Sand it is verified J that he walked
up to within three feet of a bird
which he saw in hiding. He was
sssre he could pounce upon it and
secure 1t alive, but he deemed it a
sportsmanlike act to flush the bird
and shoot. Accordingly with his
foot he hustled the pheasant into
hight. Both barrels Of Alexander's S
gun were discharged at the rapidly
flying China, but it held its conrse

First Football Game

The first foot ball game of the
season was played at OAC field
Saturday afternoon. 1t was be-
tween the first and second teams,
and was in the presence of 800
spectators.
The game was called promptly
at the three o'clock. Major Ed
wards acting as referee, and Charles
Small, officiating as umpire. Amid
a cloud of dust, the second team
kicked off, and the ball was re-
turned for 10 yards. After gain
ing their distance on several con-
secutive downs, the first team lost
the ball on tumble. The second
team carried the ball down the
field for five yards, but failing on
the next three plays lost on downs.
Several times the first team men
broke through the line, always to
be brought to the ground by Rine-
hart, the plucky quarter of the
second team.
The.ba1l exchanged hands sew
era1 times with but little gains on
either side and was at last forced
over by the first team for a touch
down. The work during the rest
of the first half was probably the
best of ss'the game. The first
team men had become steady, and
had lost the nervousness with
which they began the struggle.
The play of the second team men
was fast and furious, but the
weight of the first team was not to
be overcome by the swiftness of
their antagonists.
The first half ended by the ball
being forced across for the second
touchdown by the first team.
The intermission between halves
was spent by washing mud from
the players mouths, who had in
hailed dust from the field to such an
extent that their pa1ates, if exten-
sive enough, would have made ex-
cellent summer falloW for crop of
wheat or vetch. In the second
half the second team kicked off and
after small gains the ball was sur
rendered to the first team, and from
then on until the end of the game
long end runs and brilliant line
plunges came in rapid succession.
The superior weight and endurance
of the first team, men continued to
count. Several substitutes replac-
ed men in the second team, but the
scoring could not be denied the
first team. Time and time again
they crossed the goal linefor touch
downs until the gong closed the
halt, and the game.
Both teams played good ball,
but were slow at times, and showed
lack of that precious experience
which can only be gained on the
field with other colleges, and
which OAC feels keen1y now on
account of inaction on the gridiron
in the past two years.
As to the individual work Of the
men it showed conscientious train
ing. a will and determination to do
the best possible under such handi-
caps as are present. Men, who
three weeks ago had never touched
a football, could not be expected to
play the game as do experienced
players. If the Improvement IS as
GREAT for fhe rest of the season as
It has been up to the present, OAC
will have nucleus around which
to build a championship team for
next year.

ARBITRARY ACTION
OF the Secretary in Ordering Eject
ment of Residents of Territory
Mercilessly Scored on
the Floor of the
House.

The discussion of the clause in
the Indian Appropriation bill alb
rogatins the power of the secre-
tary of the interior, to remove at
will from the territory those resi-
denis who contest the payment of
tribal taxes, was the occasion for
several of the members Of the com
mittse to pay their respects to
Secretary Hitch cock.
Despite the defense offered by
Representative Curtis for the ar
bitrary action Of the secretary the
chief of the interior department,
was mercilessly scored.
His palpable violation OF the
spirit of the law which empowered
him To remove Objectionable
characters from the territory, was
scathingly denounced.
The following clause abrogating
his power was then inserted in the
appropriation to remove intruders;
provided, however, that it
shall hereafter be unlawful to re-
move or deport any person from
the Indian territory who is in law
ful possession of any lots or par
cells of land in any town or city in
the Indian territory which has
been designated as q iownsite un-
der existing laws and treaties, and
no part Of this appropriation shall
be used for the deportation and re-
moval of any person from Indian
territory"
When the bill came up in the
house the matter was reopened
and members of both parties took
the opportunity to refer TO the un-
warranted action OF the secretary.
in exceeding the law, in no uncer-
tain language.
The antipa,hy, which is general.
in the west and southwest to Sec
retary Hitchcock, has occasioned
the renewal Of the rumors that he
will resign from the cabinet and
President Roosevelt will offer the
portfolio of the interior depart
ment TO a Pacific coast man.

FIFTY.ONE PER CENT. MORALITY

DR.. Washington GLADDEN., of Colum-
bus, preached n sermon Sunday night
on "Fifty-one Per Cent Morality" this
subject having been suggested by Mr..
John w. Gates recommendation ia
young men to TRY to be right 81 per
cent of the time" In conclusion DR..
GLADDEN. said:
ut is not in Wall Street alone that
the chief morality is success The
worship Of success, the brute recogni-
ton Of brute money in every city of
this country, is eating like cancer
into our commercial success.
ut Is not in Wall Street alone, nor
In the social circles in which its chief
operators move. that men who have
risen to great wealth by bribery, by the
corruption Of courts and Legislatures
and city Councils, by acts of monu-
mental and continental oppression, by
taking care not to be right more than
81 per cent of the time, have been
| deferred to and fawned upon, have
been praised and honored, have been
made the patrons of colleges and the
pillars of churches and the exemplars
and mentors of our youth-simply be-
cause they had become the possessors
OF tens or hundreds of millions of
money.
''There is danger here for all Of us;
danger for our personal characters. for
our homes, for our boys and girls, for
our schools, our colleges, our churches
for the whole framework of our civ.
illzation. God help us to keep ouI
minds clear and sane respecting the
real values. and to remember the wise
mans words that better is a little
with righteousness than great reven.
ues without right"
Mr., Gates's standard of morality
may be elastic enough to pass muster
occasionally at 40 per cent, below par
but see him fly from the scarecrow OF
a "51 per cent dollar"

THE START TO SCHOOL.

My little one has gone to school, he

And as he started out the door baby
went from me
A baby. who was innocent, a child

Contained the ache that knowledge
brings or borne the bruise of care;
My baby's left his rattle
To begin the long hard battle.
With heart all free from trouble and
without things in his hair.
stood and watched him as he went,
heard his shouts of joy;
He was baby ere he left; but he'll
return boy;
I've gathered up his picture blocks and
piled them all away
And dropped a tear or two upon his
bSby toys today;
His knowledge and his SHINING
And his trouble are beginning
He'll come to me with questions, ant
alas! what shall | say?
Brave little one of mine, you've gon,
to start upon the long,
Long road that leads to Honor or goet
winding down to Wrong;
You left behind the happiest days tina
you shall ever know,
When at the door you kissed me an,
went shouting gladly!-Oh
All eager and light hearted
You have clapped your hands an,

On the way that's steep and stony-an,
God bless you as you go.
