-Four Laborers Get $1,000 Reward for
Skilful Search.

Because they found a diamond ring
by systematic search through grass
with lanterns, four men here viii re-
ceive a reward of $1,000. says a New
York dispatch. The ring belongs TO
Mrs. Harry Payne Whitney and was
given her on the occasion Of her
marriage by the late William c. Whit
ney.
She lost it Saturday. When il did
not appear from any quarter, and af-
ter the lawn had been gone over many
times by daylight. the four men hit
upon the lantern idea.
They procured a diamond ring and
experimental with it in the grass and
found that with a bright lantern it
would cast rays that could easily be
seen when the light was 10 feet away.
The lawn was laid out into squares.
The light was worked from each cor
ner Of each square last night and the
ring. valued at $4,000. was soon re-
covered.

By the Sounding Sea.

They don't have eggs at New.
port. At least this seemed to be
the opinion of a Corvallis man
who left here one day this
week for the seaside city.
He was more heavily laden
than is the ordinary old maid
when she starts on a journey, but
despite bird cage, quantity OF
fruit, fve-pound sack Of pea
nuts, two suit cases, an overcoat,
an umbrella, and a silk hat in a
paper bag, all of which he felt
obliged to carry, this thoughtful
gentleman had an eye to bacon
and eggs for breakfast, and hook
ed onto one elbow he had a ten
pound pail of fresh eggs, packed
in oats. He looked like a de-
corated hall tree as he made his
way gingerly to the c. & E. de-
pot and elbowed into the waiting
room to get a ticket. He got in
liue with the crowd, and after
stepping on the corn OF a vinegar
visaged damsel in a pink calico
gown, who told him mighty
plainly what she thought of him,
and then with his umbrella near
ly gouging out the eye OF cross
eyed peddier with green glasses,
this Corvallis pleasure seeker
got a ticket and managed to get
aboard the train.
But in the rush and hustle the
eggs were put down On the pla.-
form at the depot aud there they
stood, unclaimed aud uueaten,
until a postal came back next
day from Newport t,-"Tell Cro-
Mise to send over that pail Of eggs
tomorrow.
The eggs have been shipped,
aud it is probable that Miles Starr
is enjoying his bacon and hen
fruit for breakfast, every morn
ing, as he watches the gamools
of the crabs and the jelly fish, by
the sad sea waves.

DlsGRAcEFUl CONDITION
At Crystal Lake Cemetery-Who
Will Clean 1t UpP

/ People who visit Crystal Lake
cemetery say that things are in
a bad condition over there, and
that only few lots are kept in
order. Weeds are waist high in
places, aud everywhere there is
such a growth of them that one
dare not 60 into the place with
good clothes on, tor fear of ruin
ing them. Some lots are simply
covered with weeds and brush,
and the whole place resembles a
deserted field or brush patch
more than the resting place OF
the dead.
Such a condition should be
overcome, and that at once. It
is certainly not exhibiting much
respect for the ones who sleep
there, to allow the cemetery to
go to ruin in such a manner.
Neither is it comforting to re-
fleet that ere many years we, too,
shall te placed there and forgot
ten, while the wild Scotch bloom
and rank ivy cover our humble
mound.
If people whose relatives are
buried at Crystal Lake have no
time to keep their lots In order,
it would seem the part of wisdom
to hire sexton for the purpose,
to say nothing of its being a sa-
cred duty to the dead.
For a number of years a few
generous, big-hearted women
kept up an organization known
as the Cemetery Association"
but after carrying the work faith
fully for long time, and meet
ing with neither financial assist
ance nor encouragement of any
sort from those whose relatives
are buried in this cemetery, the
association was abandoned and
since that time Crystal Lake has
gone wild, with none to see nor
care.
The condition should touch
the pride and awaken the inter
est of every citizen of this city,
and steps should be taken at once
to clean up the spot and keep the
graves of friends and relatives in
at least respectable condition.
Who will make the start?
