Charley Maxwell arrived home
with his pretty little bride last
Friday. The bride, who was Miss
Beulah Culberson, formerly lived
in Rush Hill, where she has a host
of friends who are glad to welcome
her back to our quiet little town.
A man claiming to have arrived
from the city of Jerusalem but de.
MES being a Jew, is now in our
little town, claiming not only the
power of not only opening up and
explaining all the different vicissi-
tudes of ones future life, but tells
ones past life, whether married or
single, the number of children in
her family, their sex, number of
brothers and sisters, how long one
will live, whether or not one has
been successful financially or
whether or not one will be
successful in the future. If one is
expecting to take a journey, he
will warn one of the liability of an
accident; if in law suit, whether
or not you will be successful. He
has told some things about some
peoples past lives that made them
open their eyes. But he cannot
tell any ones fortune after five
o clock p. m.
Quite q little stir was created in
our usually quiet little town on
last Friday morning. A beautiful
young lady came driving into town
at about a three minute gaia
pair of straw roans, regular brOn-
chos. She whirled them around
with mOsterly skill, jumped from
the top of her buggy with the ease
and agility of a theatrical star, Sc
cured the ponies to the rack, then
walked with queenly grace in to
the store, made q few purchases,
then started ont to her buggy
The obliging young clerk ran out,
united the ponies and undertook
to back them, but they were as i'm
movable as a stone wall. Tue
young lady stood and watched him
for a moment with a smile on her
countenance, then jumped into the
buggy, picked up the lines, gave
steady pull first to the right, then
to the left. The ponies seemed to
recognize her authority aud soon
ran the buggy far enough back to
pass the next vehicle, squared them
selves straight in the middle of the
street and then with heads up they
got race horse move on them and
were soon out of sight. Strange
to say no one knew the name Of
either of the ponies. What did
you say-what was the young
lady's name? Oh, -why--er-Miss
-er-we don't know who she was,
we were looking at the ponies.

instead Of by the old system which
brought the department into promi
nence early this mouth, was adopted
by the Board of Supervisors last night.
This method is to be the basis of pay
ment for the month of August.
Lucas for the Committee on Roads
and Bridges said he had bills amount
ing to $1074 from the Koolaupoko Road
Board for materials used in April: The
chair said the Supervisors had nothing
to do with bills incurred at that time.
This was three months before the
County Board came into existence.
the bills down summarily. He sug-
gested holding the matter in allegiance
until the Supervisors learned their
status with the Road Boards. The
chair replied by asking:
"Are we to assume liabilities incurred
by the Territory?'
The matter was referred TO, the ROADS
and Bridges Committee.
Lucas of this committee reported that
the Road Department had already ex-
pended $71O6 out OF the August appro-
priation of $4,000. He also reported that
the Kalihi quarry was putting out the
hardest macadam material 1t was pro-
posed to use this in completing the
Queen street extension.
He stated that number of mules of
the department had been turned out
to pasture to save, on the feed bills.
Each mule, said Adams, costs about SO
per month to feed in the stables.
The expenses in the department, all
told, were about $150 per day. He
thought the department might run a
little over the appropriation and if the
bills went over the amount allotted. he
wanted the Board to see that the de-
partment was reimbursed. Mr.. Isaac
of the Road Department said the ex-
pense was closer to 5000 per day.
Adams objected to paying out money
for repairing Kualkini lane, which he
understood was private lane. Lucas
said it was used by citizens, taxpayers,
and was generally looked upon and
used as a public thoroughfare. The
matter was passed by without further
comment.
A redwood culvert on Lilfha street
had decayed. and new cement culvert
was neing is allied. Lucas read the
above and number of other interesting
items concerning work on streets all
over the city.
"I see by this list there is a lot of
ize, and think We should investigate
the matter and ascertain why" an
nounced Adams.
'It don't seem to me the work has
been done as we designated said
Adams IT don't know all about it. of
course, but I can't see it,
1.-The Queen street work is the most
| important piece for the month";" sug-
gested the chair.
Adams then began tearing the report
! to pieces. saying. however, that he ap-
preciated the fact that he didn't know
everything about it.
"I think we can get a little money,
though, if it is needed said Adams
He ascertained that out of the July
money there were s790 left over, with
garbage receipts running the total Up

An entertainment that ought to
be of unusual interest is to be given
in College chapel Friday evening.
A great Hindoo magician which is
to appear in the necromancy of Hin
doc land, said to present spectacles
astonishing in character and diff
cult of explanation. Among things
that will be seen are vanishing men,
the spontaneous growth of trees
and flowers and other strange Illus
ions. The performer will be Man
elk Shah, Imperial Necromancer to
his highness, the Rajah of Burmah.
Hindoo stringed music will be CIV
en- and the performer will play the
American violin at his back instead
of in front, as is usual. Another
feature Of the programme will be
vocal music and stereoptiean views
of Hindoostan along with brief de-
scription of social customs, and his
tory. There will be small admis-
sion fee.

CITY INVESTIGATES.
Right of Water Company to Extend
MainS-Legal Advice Sought.

Has the Corvallis local Water
g Company the night to make exten-
sions Of the water mains on city
strests? That question was discuss
ed at the city council last night.
1t is under advisement by the city
attorney. 1t has the special con-
sideration of the light and watsr
committee of the council. 1t is
wondered about by many people.
The ex tensions begin at the NJ eth-
odist church and run west along
Madison to Eighth, where they turn
south. The trench has reached a
point near the corn r of Eighth and
Jefferson.
The right of the company under
the circumstances to make extea-
sions of this kind is disputed. The
city itself is going into. the water
business. The franchise under
which the old company receives the
right to dig up streets and put in
new mains for purposes of extern
sions expired some years ago. It
had a limit, that limit was fifteen
years, and the fifteen years is up.
The company claims perpetual
franchise, but since the late.t fran.
chise they received had limit and
that limit is. expired, the idea of
some we'll posted people is that ev-
cry vestige of right the company
had, has passed into the sweet Sub.
sequentIy. That was the view ex-
pressed by nearly every member oi
the council at last nights meeting.
Tie sentiment on the subject was
unanimous. A motion to refer the
matter to the city attorney and the
light and water committee with
power to act received every vote,
and became the dictum OF the meet
ing.
