Effie Allie Headrick.

Friends of the family were shock
ed Sunday morning when told that
Miss Allie Headrick was dead .
Her illness had been of such short
duration that only her intimate &C.
quaintances knew that she was not
well. She suffered an attack of
appendicitis Monday Of last week
and a physician was summoned,
bat her case was not thought to be
serious. Later, however, peritonitis
developed and DR.. Bird was called
from Salem to assist the local ply
sicians, and an operation was re-
sorted to. But medical skill was Of
no avail and the final summons
came Sunday morning at 9 o'clock.
Efie Allie Headrick was born in
Alsea, Oregon, September %, 1878.
She grew to womanhood in this
county, but for the last few years
made her home in Salem. She was
a favorite with all who knew her
and many friends sincerely mourn
her loss.
The surviving relatives, are: The
father, w. J. Headrick. of Alsea !;
four brothers, S. g., Of Corvallis;
A. L., of Salem; L. g., Of Alsea;
Otto, of Salem; two sisters, Mrs.
Preston and Mrs. Rycraft, of Mos
COW, Idaho.
Funeral services will be conduct
ed at the residence of VIM. Bogue
this afternoon at 2 o'clock, and in
terment will be made in Crystal
Lake cemetery.

ALMOST A RIOT.
A Gang Of Portland Toaghs Disturo the
Ouiet of a Corvallis SABBATH
Afteruoou.

If all those who came to Corvallis,
Sunday, on the Grand Sachem's ex.
cursion from Portland belong TO the
Order of Red Men, some one ought
to be prosecuted for selling liquor
to Indians. Of the 81 coach ODDS
that arrived over the G. & e. at
1:30 o'clock that afternoon, at least
third of them were high, wide and
handsome. Young braves, rang
ing from Is to % years of age
sucked at bottles Of "red sye" US
they walked the streets, and some
of the older bucks were decidedly
mellow. There were many in the
party who bore the stamp OF re-
spectability, but the majority
ranged from shabby genteel to ultra,
disreputable. The latter element
were out looking for trouble and
they got their morey's worth.
While the respectable excursionists
were visiting with friends Or enjoy
ing a walk through the college
grounds, the rowdies and cheap
sports were parading Main street
looking tor an excuse to '"get bad"
That excuse might have been lack
ing had not the Salvation Army
put in an inopportune appearance.
Their arrival on the scene at the
First National bank corner was
heralded with jeers by the hundred
or more roysterers assembled in
that neighborhood. Chief Alexan-
der saw the coming storm and he
attempted to avert it by sending
tue salvationists back to their bar
racks. This they refused to do.
Some of the Portland contingent
resented this interference on the
part of the police, and upon their
advice "Banty" Barrett, a profes
sional pugilist, assaulted the Off
Ger. A free for all fight ensued,
and "Banty" emerged from the
melee minus portion of one ear.
He was taken to neighboring
drugstore where his anatomy was
sewed together. His companions
were worsted in their efforts to take
the town, and they were surly be-
cause of their failure. Johnson
Porter had rendered conspicuous
service to Chief Alexander and he
was singled out for rough treat
ment. But Mr.. Porter was in no
mood to trife with the flowers of
Portland's pugdom, SO he drew his
revolver and securing an advanta-
geous position intimated that there
would be work for the coroner if
the matter was carried further.
This had the desired effect, and the
crowd found the way back to the
excursion train.

Law Knows No Fayorites.

Corvallis experienced another
jail break the other night. Two
prisoners of mature years pushed
some bricks out of the east wall
of the city bastile, and in the
morning the jai1er discovered
their absence and a NOE stating
that they had served the custom
ary time for the offense charged
against them, and decided to
leave.
A few months ago a number of
youths of this city were incarcer-
ated for misdemeanor. They
broke Jail and the whole town
was in state of uproar. Mes
sages were flashed to every city
in the state warning the officers
to apprehend the fugitives.
When they were captured spec
ial officer was dispatched to es-
cort them back to this city.
They were tried and severely
dealt with. This was right and
proper, for the law is society's S
only protection ard-respect for it
must be enforced.
In the present instance, how
ever, there seems to be a disposi-
ton to treat the whole matter as
joke. One of the offenders has
been guilty of a similar offense
on two former occasions and has
gotten off lightly. Young boys
know of these things. They
have no understanding of the sa-
credness or majesty of the law.
When they violate an ordinance,
they believe that they have
merely loutwitted the officers.
The city authorities are under
oath to enforce the laws. Itthey
regard that oath lightly, and per
NIT old offenders to break the law
with impunity, they are In a
measure responsible for the mis-
d-neanors committed by bows
and young men.

find that securities they offer for
loans, though heretofore satisfac-
tory, are no longer accepted.
Values supposed to be fixed are
fast becoming conjectural, and
loses and failure have involved
every branch of business. Oh,
no; Mr.. Reames wouldn't strike
down Eastern manufactures!
"We are in the Philippines to
stay," asserted the speaker with
great positiveness, and no one
showed disposition to question
the statement. Some of those
present were at least four years
ahead of Mr.. Reames in finding
this out. He said that manufac.
turies are necessary to the devel-
opment of this coast; that factor
les would be established here
when there is a market for their
products; that the countries of the
Orient will supply this market.
The democratic party evidently
did not have an appreciation of
the value of the Oriental market,
when it made its campaign
against the retention of the Phil
;pp:ne islands. Mr.. Reames
need not worry about the policy.
of the government in its relations
with our new possessions. He
and his party will be admitting
the wisdom of the solution of
these problems by republican ad.
ministrations, when the country
refuses longer to listen to their
objections.

Tie Farmers Won the Field Meet Satur-
day without Effort.
The track and field contest be-
tween the Dallas college and O.
A. c. athletes on agricultural
field last Saturday afternoon was
too one-sided to be interesting.
The visitors did not take a point
until the meet was halt over, and
scarcely gave the farmers prac-
tice. They were a sturdy set of
boys, but have no trainer and
their best sprinter, Polling, was
not in condition. Dallas took
but two first places, Teats win
ming the mile and Lowner the pole
vault. The latter cleared the
bar at 9 feet, 10 inches at his last
trial, but the effort was SO great
that he collapsed and fell in such
manner that his left arm was
thrown out of place at the elbow.
Rinehart fell III the 44o-yard
run, but plucki!y continued in
the race, finishing third. Jack
sons putting of the shot 81 feet
and 2 inches In his only trial was
