her ability to pass her examinations,
Eva would undertake the task, with

LITTLE MAIDS FOOL FRIENDS
Twin Girls Confuse Their Teachers an
Play Franks On the Boys.

CORVALLIS, Ore, Feb. 29.-Social
events at the college and in Corvallis
the last week have been graced by the
presence of Misses Eva and Evea APP
plegate of Yoncolle, Douglas county.
These charming young women attend
ed college here last year, and the
trouble they caused among their ad-
mirers and the pranks they played
upon the students and professors will
always be a part of Oregon Agriculture
al college history.
The young women are twins and are
as like as two peas. They are of the
same height and figure, have the same
tone Of voice and trick of manner, and
always dress exactly alike, which, to-
gether with their wonderful similarity
of feature, made it a guess on the
part Of every one as to which was Eva
and which was Evea.
Their jolly disposition and attractive
faces soon made them the most popu

an opportunity for mischief that they
never failed to avail themselves OF.

COURT REvERsES ITSELF
OverruIes Opinion Recently Handed
Down In Tacoma Case.

OLYMPIA. Feb. 29.-The supreme
court has overruled it's recent opinion
recently handed down in the Tacoma
case of Brockway VS.. Abbott, reported
in "a Pacific (Wash.), 1869. and thereby
disposed of large number of motions
for dismissals of appeals that We're
based upon the ruling in the case men
toned
The case decided is the Lincoln coun-
" case Of John O'COnnor, appellant, VS.
F M. LighthiZer, ct al, respondents.
The respondents based motion for
dismissal of appeal upon the ruling in
Rrockway vs. Abbott. In the latter
neal should be served on the sureties
on a non-residence cost bond, and had
dismissed the appeal for failure to
comply with that requirement. In re-
rersing itself, the court simply reviews
a number of decisions along this line,
but only reyerses the case mentioned,
denies the motion of Lighthizer ct al,
for dismissal, thus holding that where
Judgment cannot be entered against
sureties they are not parties to the ac-
ton and notice of appeal need not be
served on them.
