The bankruptcy proceeding of
H. M. Brunk in process of liqui-
dation at the present time calls
to mind the insolvency Of Max
Friendly, which occurred begin
ming with the hard times of 1893.
After these proceedings in the
attempt to wind up Mr.. Friend
ly's estate had proceeded for a
couple of years, and it seemed to
be no nearer settlement than
when it began, the creditors after
several attempts made an agree.
ment 10 each select certain parts
of the property and take the same
for his debt instead of letting the
property go to sale. Upon such
agreement the estate was closed
by dividing up the property in
stead of selling it and thus each
creditor sold the property which
he thus acquired saving the ex-
pense of sales under the details
of judicial process. In that way
the creditors worked out of the
property nearly all their claims.
If they had not SO agreed and
divided the property as stated
they would probably not have
saved one-half of their claims.

FIRST FOOTBALL CANE.
Royal Battle Tomorrow Between
l. Alumni and 0. A. G..

The first regular football game
of the season will be played next
Saturday, in the afternoon. The
game will be between the OAC
regulars and the old champion
football team of 1897. All but
two or three players OF the famous
old team viii be on the field and
a royal battle is expected. The
old champions will very likely
use the same plays that won fof
|OAC the Northwest champion
ship a few years ago and the old
love of battle is doubtless as
strong in each heart as ever.
This team bears the distinction
of being one of the two teams
that have carried off the cham
pionship in latter years, the
other team being that of the Uni
versity of Washington. The
lineup will be about as follows:

A grand reception will be
given the alumnal team Satur-
day evening in the Armory. A
short program will be followed
by dancing.
Members of the old team who
live out of town will probably ar
rive today. It will be necessary
to practice some before the game
and too much must not be ex-
pected of the boys for seven
years produces a marked change
in the best of men. A royal
battle is expected, however, and
all Corvallis will probably be
there to witness it. There are
enough men now tor three full
football teams, and the practice
each evening is beginning to as
sumo a decided warlike appear
ance. "Burrows" is now center
for the second team and he makes
Ia fine center. He may lack
speed but he makes the line as
solid as a stone wall.
The second team under "dad"
Trine's supervision is developing
into something pretty good and
if the boys stay at it and stick to-
gether, the regulars will have a
hard time to get away from them.
Three football games have been
arranged on the outside for the
second team by Manager Pilk-
ington. Besides the annual game
with the state university, two
dates have been arranged with
the first team of Monmouth COL
lege. The first occurs at Corval-
lis October 29, and the other at
Monmouth, November nth.
Owing to a shortage of suits,
the scrub or third team men
have to take all the little odds
and ends and the outfit is comical
to behold. Nevertheless this is
probably the most dangerous an
tagonist in the field, for what it
lacks in strength and discipline,
it makes up for in noise and foul
play. Coach Sickle is meeting
every expectation of the boys and
is fine strategist. He is spar
ing no pains to make the boys
understand their positions and is
giving personal instruction in
both offensive and defensive play
ing.
