CUPID'S LATE CAPER.
On Railroad Train-How a Cascade
Couple Took in the Excursion.

They took in the Sunday excur-
sion-this certain couple did. They
were laddie and lassie from some
where in the Cascades, over for
day at the ocean beach. If there
is anything in signs, according to
the statements of passengers, he
loved her and she loved him. They
gazed deep down into the depths
of each others eyes and by other
manifestations gave evidence of
their mutual admiration.
By and by, as they journeyed on,
their heads nodded and nodded to-
ward each other, until they finally
touched. There had been an early
morning start on the train, day at
the beach, and it is not wonderful
that they fell asleep, especially with
two hearts beating taps on two
diaphragms with all the energy with
which small boy laws the sticks
for the first time on a new snare
drum. 1t was an innocent peace
full scene of love and trust, but it
amused the passengers. Presently,
a young woman who doesn't live a
thousand miles from Corvallis, took
her veil, and with it tied the two
tired heads together. Thus linked
the two hearts beat on while the
cars thundered over the bridges and
through the tunnels until Blodgett
was reached when there was stir
in the seat of the Cascade lad and
1assie. One of them awoke. and in
the effort at freedom, the other was
awakened. Both tugged at the
knotted veil, while all the people in
the car looked on and guffawed.
When the veil was finally uuloosed
it was thrown on the floor with a
spitefulness to have frightened
Carrie Nation in a full career with
her hatchet. The spooney couple
and the seaside are almost synony-
nous and this new pair from the
Cascades are not the first to afford
a carfull of people an hour of di-
version.

for it.

The union service of the church

mittee to BE- a leading Sunday fea-
ture of the three days celebration
of the 4th. is not to be at all. II
was the committees idea to have a
quiet, orderly Sunday between the
first and last days of the celebration
and for the purpose planned big
union service with all the churches
participating for II O'Clock or the
the midafternoon, to be followed,
later by sacred concert.
But the big union service is not
to be. Instead, there will be on the
fiat near Mary's river bridge.
base bali game between two con-
testing teams, the game to begin
about half past two o'clock The
general committee is disappointed
in the turn of affairs. but was un-
able to provide the union service as
scheduled. In the beginning,
Revs. Carrick. Green and Moore
were appointed committee ofmin-
listers to ascertain and report upon
the advisability and possibility o.
the union meeting. A meeting
of the ministerial association was
secured by them. and thereat the
plan was considered. Subsequent
ly, the committee reported to the
general committee that it had de
veloped that unanimous actor
could not be secured in the church
es with reference to the union serv
ice. Some further attempt wa.
made with reference to the matter
but it has been finally dropped
and the base ball game has beer
substituted. The sacred concert
will however. be carried out a
originally planned, and will tax

IN ASHES NOW.
Well Known Farm House of Manly
Currier DESTROYED by Fire.

The farm home of Manly Cur
rier, together with large part Of
the contents, was entirely destroy
ed by fire Sunday morning. The
residence was one of the largest
and best known in the county, and
was located on the Currier farm, a
dozen miles south of Corvallis.
The fire occurred about ten o o'clock
in the morning, and originated in a
back room in the upper portion of
the house. A lighted lamp was
left by Richard Scott in bed room
while he went out for a moment.
When he returned. he found the
room ablaze with flames, whether
due to an explosion of the lamp, or
otherwise is not known. By the
time it was discovered the fire was
far beyond control, and the efforts
of the family were directed to saw
ing as much of the contents as pos
sible.
The building was a large two
story structure, containing dozen
or fifteen rooms, and covered a
large area of ground. A woodshed
in the rear stretched away in the
direction of the barn, from which
it was only about sixty feet remov-
ed. Over the woodshed was work
shop, and within a comparatively
short time, the whole building was
mass of flames. The removal of
furniture soon became difficult,
and attention had to be directed to
the saving of the barn. Neighbors
arrived land did their utmost to assist
in the work of saving. Most of
the articles from the living parlors
and other lower rooms, except the
kitchen were saved, as was a quan-
tity of bedding and apparel from
the upper story. The piano was
carried out, and of the dozen beds
in the building, about three were
removed. The dishes and kitchen
! utensils were all burned. as were
all the carpets and many other ar
ticles of use and value.
! The fire lasted for about two
hours, and at the end of that time
the big farm house had been re.
duced to smouldering ruins. DR.
Charles Lee and wife of this city
were guests in the house at the
time. Many neighbors collected OF
| the scene before the conhagratior
ended. The family is now camp
ing, three tents having been called
into requisition, and the cook wag
| on that goes with the threshing ma
chine having been utilized, for the
purpose. The loss on building and
contents is extensive, but no figure
are available. 1t is said that tn,
loss on the house is partially GOV
cred by insurance.
