Worlds Work: Mr.. Champ Clark

gresham, said, after the campaign Of

and the perils of the republic involv-

The Fatal Wedding.

Nvxt Friday eeenlng, Nov. 4,
the patrons of the Opera House
will have a pleasant surprise in
store for themselves, when the
big New York melodrama, 1.-THE
Fatal Wedding" will play an en-
gagement at Corvallis. The plot
is a powerful one, and deals with
the adventures of a scheming
woman, who, assisted by a male
act omplice, ventures the ruin of
a happy family, and the seperat-
ion OF a wife from husband and
children, in order that she can
contract a marriage with the hus-
band and thereby gain his fortune
She is prevented from doing this,
however, by the timely iuterfer-
ence of two characters, French
man and an Irish servant woman
who in their respective parts
make no end of amusement for
the audience. An unusually
strong cast will interpret the play
and the scenic effects are the
most realistic ever attempted in
melodrama. One scene in particu-
lar, that of the famous Palisades
at night, showing the counter
feiter's deu, gives great effect,
and with the many revolving
scenes 60 to make up as stroug a
scenic production as has yet been
witnessed in this city.

Sorosis Girls as Entertainers.

One of the most pleasant Hal
lowe'en parties was that given
by the Sorosis girls, their guests
being the young men Of the
Amicitian society. The decora-
tious were very unique, con-
sisting of autumn leaves, corn
stalks, pumpkins and fruit of
various kinds. A row of bright
red apples were placed around
the wainscotting of the rooms,
while a portier1e of the same was
suspended in the doorway lead
ing to the dining-room, in the
midst of which hung a horseshoe.
Those who accomplished the task
of throwing a ball thrice through
the horseshoe were considered
lucky, indeed. The decorations
of the tables were simply grand,
as one young man expressed it.,
lit looked like a regular harvest
festival" The tables were we'll
lighted with candles. At each
plate was a small Jack-o-lantern
made of an apple, while through
out the rooms pumpkins did SER
vice as such. Refreshments con-
sisted of fruit salad with whipped
cream and sandwiches of white
and brown bread and nuts and
cream. Candies, nuts and fruits
were placed in large dishes made
of pumpkins. The cracking of
the nuts afforded much delight, as
they seemed 10 be of a peculiar
kind, revealing the fate of the
owner. At each plate was placed
a blank card which, when placed
over burning candle brought
forth in brown letters wonderful
prophecies. The prophecies had
been previously written upon
with milk-by the spooks. The
evening was enliveued by several
vocal selections by Miss Bertha
Williams and Miss Margaret
Weveley presided at the piano
at various intervals throughout
the evening. A genuine Vir-
ginia Reel, led by Mr.. and Mrs.
B. w. johnson, was not the least
enjoyable feature of the occasion.

O4C Sc OVD TEAM DEFEATED.
G0 Down Pefore Secold Team of
University of Oregon.

The husky farmer boys from
Corvallis went down in gallan
: defeat before the second team o.
the University of Oregon. Sat
urday by a score of 8 to S.
Both teams lacked defensive
work. while the offensive work
of both was very good, U. of o.
having little the best of it.
The U. of o. scored thei,
touchdown a few minutes after
the opening of the game, and
from that on it looked as though
the game was an easy mark, but
alas! that farmer sprinter Stimp-
son OH the first down after the
kick off, secured the ball on the
85-vard line and ran the length
OF the field with the pack at his
heels for touchdown. The fact
could hardly be realized by the
rooters, and the score was made
by streak of luck. Iu the second
half the varsity found the weak
poi1 IS and worked that line like
machine, netting from 5 to IS
yards at a clip. From the kick
off the varsity backs took the
ball three successive times for 7
yards apiece, followed soon after
by a IS-yard run by Holmes.
On tumble the OAC got the
ball and the full fell back to
boost the pigskin. but alas! some
man on the farmers side blocked
the kick, the ball rolling behind
the goal posts, where an OAC
man fell on it. Thus U. of O..
received two more points.
The bast men on the OAC
team were the quarter and the
left hall, while on, the U of O
team every man was a star, Kuy.
kendall and Holmes showing up
exceptionally we'll.
The game was worth the ad-
mission price, and everything
was done on the square, the
officials being very IMPARTIAL

Serious Accident.

Saturday morning, James Her
ron while on his way to Corval-
lis was struck in the head by a
stray 22 calibre rifle bullet. The
miniature ball penetrated the hat
band and scalp but fatteued
when it struck the skull and de-
waited in discourse travelling par
TALLY around the head beneath
the scalp and lodged near the
temple. The ball came from a
rifle ir the hands of two young
Corvallis boys who were out
hunting and did not know that
Mr.. Heron was near. Mr.. Her
ron was riding along in his wagon
when he was struck and did net
see the boys nor hear the report
of the gun, but he explains that
he suddenly felt a bump on the
head as though struck with
club. A moment later the blood
began to stream down his face
and he hurried to town a mile
distant where physician remov-
ed the bullet and dressed the
wound. The boys when ques-
toned did not know that any
harm had been done which was
undoubtedly true. Mr.. Heron
is prominent farmer living south
of here and the boys belong to
prominent Corvallis families. The
boys had never been permitted to
go hunting and were out at the
time without the knowledge of
their parents. The affair is deep
ly regretted and relief is felt that
the accident did not result more
seriously.

The inventor of the new Ameri,
can gun is man named J. Ham.
ilton Brown, though the work Of
constructing this particular six.
inch experimental piece is in
charge of Colonel John NJ. In
gals, retired U. S. A, an artil-
lerist of high standing and repu-
tation. Despite the incredulity
of contemporary gun-builders, Col
onel ingalls, and officers with him
assert that this six-inch gun will
throw thirty miles a projectile
weighing 100 pounds which will
pierce a six-inch steel target.
A ten-inch gun of this construc-
ton, with powder chamber OF
14,25o cubic inches and using
900 pounds of srnokeless powder,
would hurl a six-hundred projec-
tile a distance of fifty-nine miles.
Increasing this ratio, a sixteen
inch gun would have an extreme
range of more than one hundred
miles, and equipped with such
coast-defense rifles, England and
France could shell each other
across the Channel.-New Fight.
