CORVALLIS Tin.
From the London Chronicle

Hioh thF L<onuOn SnrOnlcle
Though the Cornish tin deposits have been
worked from the dawn Of history, experts
hold that vast quantities are still to be
found in this rich metalliferous soil. In the
past twenty years Cornwall has been badly
hit by the development of tin-mining in the
Straits Settlement The fall in the price of
the metal caused the closing of many of
the Cornish mines, and incidentally led to
the migration of Cousin Jacky" as the
Cornish miner is known, to every quarter of
the globe 1t seemed indeed as if mining In
the duchy had received a blow from which
1t could by no possibility recover. A few
mines managed to survive, notably Dol
coath, which earned a modest profit even In
the lean years when tin varied between
EGO and G7O per ton. With the metal
nearly treble that price, it Is not surprising
that spectators and prospectors are turn
ing avid eyes to this westernmost county
The enhanced price of tin is likely to be
permanent, for it is due tOnatural, not ar
tificial, causes Tin is the rarest of all the
metals. and the worlds consumption has
now outgrown the supply. The worlds pro-
duction has averaged, in recent years TO-
600 tons, of which more than One-half has
come from the Straits Settlements. About
1900 tons per annum come from the
Dutch East Indies; 5000 tons from Corn
wall; 5000 tons from Australasia, and a
similar quantity from Bolivia. Tin Is
scarcely found at all in Europe or in the
United States.

RESIGNS PAsTURATE
REV. EDWARD B. BAGBY AC-
CEPTs ANOTHER CALL.

Rev. Edward B. Bagby. for fifteen years
pastor of the Ninth Street Christian Church.
corner of 9th and d streets northeast, an
nounced to his congregation yesterday
morning that he had accep,ed call to be-
come pastor of the Franklin Circle Church
or Christ. in Cleveland, Ohio. and would re-
sign his pastorate in this city to take ef-
feet October 1 next. The pastor was visibly
anected when he made the announcement.
and it caused tears and protests on the part
OF the members of the congregation.
1t was explained by member of the ex-
ecutive board of the church that Mr.. Bagby
had brought the matter before the board
Saturday night, and it was his request that
the resignation be accepted. After several
persons had spoken of the warm regard of
the congregation for Mr.. Bagby and of
their sorrow at parting with him the resig-
iation was formally accepted.
Chairman w. s. McCurdy of the executive
board then appointed committee of five
to select successor to Mr.. Bagby. An
other committee will draft resolutions of
regret at the pastors resignation and eX-
pressing appreciation Of his services here.
Farewell Sermon September 80.
Mr.. Bagby will preach his farewell ser
mon here September 80. AS to his reasons
for making the change. Mr. Bagby said:
Il took this action because felt that
might lead a more useful life in other lines
of the work. Although our congregation
numbers 1.lOO. we have a following of at
least 1000 The pastoral calls and other
duties incident upon serving this number OF
souls have been a drain upon my health.
and allow me no time for the pursuit of my
studies. True, the church at Cleveland is a
large and influential one, but it is free from
debt. and then will be allowed an assist
ant in the performance of my duties. An
other strong reason for the change in loca-
ton is the H-health of my wife. Her physi-
clan has advised a change of climate, and
we go to Cleveland with the hope that 1t
may benefit her,
Mr.. Bagby returned early this morning to
Bethany Beach, Del, a summer resort con-
Quoted by the Christian Church. where he
has been spending the summer. He will be
here for the services at his church next
Sunday, but is not expected to remain in
the city for any length of time.

Oxford and the Railway.
From the London Chronicle


Oxford warned the railway of because
1t was conservative to the very heart of 1t,
and shivered at the prospect Of a day re-
turn ticket to London. Throughout Berk-
shire and Oxfordshire the prejudice has
fingered long. This writer has known two
charming old ladies who, five and twenty
years ago. visited Oxford every summer.
But they always came in their carriage
from their house thirty miles away. And
II one alluded to the facilities of railway
travelling they assumed a sudden DEAFNESS.
An engine might have whistled his loudest
and those old ladies would have calmly
ordered out the horses.

MAY NOT AWARD CONTRACTS.
Irrigation Projects May Be Undertake,
by the Government.

AS soon as inventories have been taken
of the contractors outfits seized by the
geological survey at Corbett tunnel and
Shoshone dam, on irrigation projects of
northern Wyoming, consideration will be
given plans of completing these great con-
tracts. The cause of the failure of Charles
Speer at Corbett tunnel, and Prendegast
and Clarkson at Shoshone dam, to live up
to the terms of their contracts is being in
vestigated, and may have some bearing on
the method of carrying on the works to
completion. 1t is regarded as likely that
the geological survey will continue the
works with the equipment and supplies
seized rather than to let a new contract.
More than million dollars is involved,

Origin of the Strike Fund.

The earliest mention Of strike fund oc.
Cured in the strike of the Partisan stock
ing weavers, in 1724, when a crown a day
was subscribed for every striker, and all
blacklegs were mercilessly boycotted. But
the biggest strike under the ancient re-
gime'' was that tof the silk factory hands
at Lyons, in 1744, when II 900 men went on
strike. and so alarmed the mayor that he
conceded everything they asked, and wrote
to his brother that he had ia tete cassee
par cette vile canaille." The vile ca
naille," however, had had their moment
and it was no longer theirs. Two months
later the king sent down 10000 soldiers

"Bopus."
From the London Chronicle.

From the London Chronicle.
Quite the most curious word OF the insur-
ance Jargon that is to the fore just now is
"bonus." 1t ought to be 'bonum," since it
is evidently intended to mean "a good
thing" and therefore should be neuter, not
masculine. The word Is found as early as
1773, but no one knows who was the igno-
rant or willful sinner against Latin that
introduced 1t, though conjecture naturally
assigns 1t to the stock exchange Anyhew
1t 10 perfectly Angicised now, and nobody
thinks OF pronouncing 1t with the short "o''
OF the Latin. just as every one who is not a
pedant pronounces bona fde" as If it
would go straight into the meter of ..fIia-
watha," thereby making a false quantity in
every one of the four syllables

The Woman's Statement,

In the struggle her watch chain snapped
and the watch rolled along the path. One
of the men returned 1t to her. When the
President and his family had driven away
she hurried down the street in search OF
redress. She had no complaint to make
against the secret service men, but turned
all her anger against James Duffey the
usher, who she declared had torn her dress.
Squire Franklin, the Justice of the peace,
did his best to quiet her. He refused to
give her warrant for Duffey's arrest, she
says.
Miss Case said later that she thought
she had been used spitefully and that she
believed she was acting within her rights

and I'll soon have man who will take me

Secretary Loeb was not at church and
did not witness the incident. He said
later that while he did not believe that
Miss Case intended to do any harm, yet
as an act of charity he felt that it would
be better to take some steps to have her
cared for out of town. He fears that the
woman may be taken advantage Of by

The President turned his head sharply at
the sound of the woman's cry, but made
no answer and passed on without hesita-

Longworth, Mrs. Roosevelt, Quentin and
Mr.. Longworth. Miss Case, surrounded
by the secret service men, had no chance
to speak to the first three, but as the guard
closed in after Mrs. Roosevelt she reached
the edge of the aisle in time to catch Mr..
Longworth. She called to him several
times, addressing him by all his names and
titles, but Mr.. Longworth hurried on.
Outside the church Miss Case struggled
hard to reach the Presidents carriage.

broad backs and wedged her in an angle
