LET'S OF CIDER.
An Annual Output of the Corvallis
Factory.

Factory.
Since the first of October there
has been activity at the Corvallis
cider factory under the manage
ment of G. W. Smith. Previously
the original factory had been en-.
larged by an addition 80 by so feet,
but Notwithstanding the storage
capacity, the building is now filed
with barrels of cider numbering
$40, each containing so gallons.
Still, other nearby buildings are
available for storage purposes if
work continues.
+ Thursday last it was announced
that for the present, apples could
not be accepted for manufacture on
shares, for the reason that the fac
tory had utilized all barrels on
hand. and that an additional sup-
ply was not at once available. Up
to this time the factory has paid IS
cents per tied sack, or about 10
cents per bushel. In estimating
the quantity Of cider produced at
the factory this season accounts
should be taken of several thousand
gallons taken from the mill by those
providing apples for share Of the
product. .
Mr.. Smith is undecided as to
what disposition will be made of
the cider on hand. Condensers
may be purchased which transform
the cider into vinegar in a very
short time. There has been also
considered suggestion that much
of the factory's product be bottled
by Prof. Pernot's process which
was recently described in the Times.
Mr.. Smith went to Portland
Saturday for the purpose of obtain
ing additional barrels, if possible.
They are usually obtained from
wholesale liquor dealers, but the
supply had been absorbed by an
unusual demand by cider factories.
The shutdown at the local factory
will therefore continue during this
season, except that it will run on
next Saturday and the following
Saturday for parties wishing to
have apples pressed for themselves
The conditions are unfortunate, as
!, there appears to be large supply
of apples yet available.

WHAT He DISCUSSED.
An Able and Interesting Address and 9
Large and AppreciatiYe

Large and AppreciatiYe
Audience.
The South and Its People" was
the subject of an address at the
First Methodist church Sunday
evening. The speaker was Rev.
Feese, and the@discourse has since
been the, subject Of much favor
able comment about town. A large
audience followed the speaker with
unwavering attention from the
opening sentence until the close of
the meeting,
The beginning of the address
was rich in description of the South
its historic battle6elds, its beauti-
full scenery. the characteristics and
customs of the people, and the
chivalry and hospitality for which
the Southerner is noted far and
wide. The speaker touched upon
the slavery question, giving a brief
history of its origin, growth and
final overthrow in the South. He
related instances known to himself
in which the ex-slave had. in after
years, owing to a change of fortune
provided maintenance for the mis-
tress he had formerly served, and
whose property he had been. He
told, toe, in convincing language
what education has done and is do
ing for the negro, and how, in
many cases, the educated co1ored
man today stands in positions Of
honor and distinction in the edu-
cational and scientific world.
The final thought in the Sunday
evening address was what religion
has done, is doing and will event
ually do for the negro. Rev. Feese
declares that the colored race is
easily influenced in religion, and
that the churches should take an
active interest in seeing to it that
the gospel is brought home to the
colored man, wherever he may
live.
The address of Rev. Feese was
not without touches of humor, this
making it enjoyable for all classes
of listeners.

Accidental Shooting Of James Heron
Boys did it With Target Rifle

James M. Heron, of the Barclay
neighborhood was accidentally Shot
in the forehead, while on his way
to Corvallis last Saturday. The
bullet took effect in. the forehead,
an inch and a half above the right
eye, and passing around. lodged
under the skin over the right tenn
pie. It passed through the hat
band, and aattened itself against
the skull bone of the forehead. The
resistance of the hat band and the
strength of the skull bone apparent
ly alone prevented the missile from
entering the brain, and thereby
softened this story of the accident.
Mr.. Heron accompanied by Mrs.
Heron was on his way to Corvallis
for load of lumber. They were
in the vicinity of the bridge across
the Fischer mill race. Two Cor
wallis lads, armed with 22.calibre
target-rifles, were hunting in the
vicinity. They were Edwin Wood
cock and Dean Dilley, aged 10 or 1
years. As he drove along, some
thing suddenly struck Mr.. Heron
in the forehead. He neither saw
the boys nor heard the shot. He
[ thought for a moment he had been
struck over the head with a heavy
club. A few moments later the
blood began to trick1e down
his face. An examination disclos-
ed the trouble, and he drove hastily
to town where DR.. Cathey removed
the bullet and dressed the wound,
His passage through the stree,
with blood flowing down his face
attracted wide attention and for {
time there was a mild sensation
| The wound is far less serious thar
| it might have been, though the
/ spot will be tender for long tim
4 to come. J7. e,... .z:a.-
j The shooting was purely accident
/ al, as the boys do not even remem
Der. to have seen the wagon or any
one else along the road at the tim
they shot. ~

THE FATAL WEDDING.

Mondays Oregonian has the
following concerning the play to be
given at the Corvallis Opera House
Friday night. Theodore Kremer
has written melodramas enough to
stock the stage for the next genera
ton, but he struck II when he
finished fThe Fatal Wedding" It
was a sort of inspiration in concep-
ton. The featuring of child part
was inspiration number I, for in
me1odrama the rule is that the
youngsters who appear are wooden,
little marionettes In whom the
audience can feel but little interest.
But all the world loves a real child,
and "the little mother as portray
ed by little Gussie Shires is the
most important factor of the pro-
duction. AS child actresses GO,
little Miss Shires is so far above
them that they have nothing in
common. s..
Inspiration number was the
sublime courage which came to him
when he wrote a four-act me1odra-
ma without butchers bill in it,
for be it known that nobody is kill
ed Until the last 10 seconds when
the adventures suicides in front of
the altar of Grace Church.
The play is swift and intense.
So much so that the audience was
kept in quandary whether to laugh
Or cry or shout. It managed to do
all, however, before the show was
over. The company is an unusual
ly capable one and gives smooth,
evenly-balanced performance. The
escape of 1.-THE little mother" the
wronged wife, and the resourceful
French servant from the counter
feiters' den, hand-over-hand along
a light rope, and the sensational
occurrence in Grace Church, from
which the piece takes its name.
were the big pulse-quickening in
cidents. The production is we'll
equipped with scenery, and the
costumes were neat and correct.

AGAINST THE TRAFFIC.
This Writer Argues for Banishment Of
Saloons From Benton.


EDITOR CORVALLIS TIMES:
appreciate your offer to open
the columns of the Times for the
discussion of this most important
question, but first permit me to say
that the people of Corvallis and
Benton County ought to appreciate
paper that is not far from right
on all the questions of the hour,
whether it be questions of county
and city finance, the questions of
mountain water and public health.
or the all-important questions re-
lating to public morals. Loftier
sentiments never find their way in
to the columns of a local paper
than were expressed last week. in
your editorial "What is War;"
But to the question; How shall
the people Of Benton county vote
on the saloon question? Corvallis
is to be a college city. Shall it be
a college city with saloons? The
two are incompatible. The college
is growing. There is no one who
can foretell what it may be in ten
years from today, but one thing is
certain; without saloons its growth
will be immeasurably greater than
with them Parents who have in
terest enough in their children tc
send them to college, sacrificing
money, time, and often health, tc
do so. almost invariably want tc
send them where they will be away
from the influence of the three evils
which 60 hand in hand-the saloor
the gambling hell and the brothel
and where one exists the other:
will come sooner or later. There are
no exceptions to this rule. Wha
! is the Agricultural College wortf
to this County? Five hundred
students at present who spend herr
probably not less, on an average
, than $500 each per year or 500
900. Supposing conditions so near
1y ideal that the number should in
crease to 1000 students in the nea
I future; with $500. 900 put into cir
} culation by students besides th'
, money spent by the faculty whicl
would necessarily increase in lik
proportion and we begin to realiz
what a valuable asset the co1leg
may grow to be. What are th
saloons worth to Corvallis? Th'
article in the Times last week ans
wers the question, Let us shov
our enterprise by banishing tn
enemies of education; then we cal
build up the OAC and make Cor
wallis ideal, and the best colleg
town in the Northwest.
