went in the direction opposite to
him, or he would have been blown
to atoms.
The drum in the left al of the
victim is entirely blown away.
When be saw the "blue star" as
he called the explosion, Mr.. Walk.
er ducked his head to save himself
also turning his head slightly to
one side. That gave the concus-
sion full sweep into his ear, and it
shattered the drum. The drum
in the other ear is split. There is
sight in one half the left eye. The
loss of the other half shows that
the conclusion affected the brain
and one half the optic nerve.
A curious fact connected with
the experience of Mr.. Walker is,
that he felt no pain whatever, until
after he had risen to his feet and
set about to take an inventory of
what had happened. Then pain
came into his brain, ears and every
where, and so continued through
out the day. The incident shows
that people blown up by dyna mite
die an entirely painless death.

violin solos by A.. M. Damon, the

CATS.
Many Of Them were Shang-
haied- the Night
Barnacle GLIB met.

1t is understood that since Sat
urday night, the cat is missing
from several Corvallis homes.
Where all the felines disappeared
to IS uncertain, though it has leak
ed out that a part of them found
their way into the p%ostofice. When
Postmaster Johnson walked into
the Office Sunday morning, a cat
leered at him from his private desk.
1t non-plussed the postmaster to
find a cat there, because cats are
not kept in the postof1ce. For a
moment be doubted his own eyes,
and then began to wonder if the
way he had them vas cats instead
of snakes. Just then a second cat
perched on the shelf at the delivery
window met his gaze. Then he
was sure. that he had 'em, and he
fully expected to begin to see cats
in the air. in his hair, in his peck
cts and everywhere else, but he
didn't. In spite of his fears, he
was alright, and of cats, there
were buttwo. Later, he learned that
cats we're missed from various
homes, and that of those stolen two
had been brought to the postoHce
and thrust in by persons holding
keys to the boxes. The identity Of
those who held their neighbors'
cats so lightly, is not known. Their
club had a meeting that night, and
it Is wondered if belated Barnacles
had a hand in the business.

action in which the United States Navy was en-
gagged; the second soop of built in 1888; the
third steamer of 100 tons displacement. and
day the 5000 ton battleship on whose deck we
stand.
Every citizen of our Union Of States is proud OF
our present navy, and Connecticut is justly proud
that her name has been placed the largest ship
of this we'll organized and well managed depart
ment of our national government. and is especially
gratifed in the happy and timely coincident that
her able commander, Captain William Swift. is a
native horn and bred Connecticut IN
