TH0RNs & 0RANeEBLosS0Ms,
Tuesday Night at the Corvallis
Opera House.

'Thorns and Orange B.os-
SONS" dramatization of Bertha
M. Clay's famous novel of the
same name will be seen here next
Tuesday night. The production
in its entirety comes direct from
its run at the Academy of Music
in Chicago. The company is
beaded by the charming actress,
Miss Flora Fairfield, big favor
ite in the East. The play, while
intensely dramatic, contains moth
ing of the cheap me.odramatic;
lit appeals to all classes on ac-
count of timely discussions of
class distinctions. There is some
thing in each act that every
patron may enjoy. In one, it is
a thrilling climax; in another it
is a sweetly told love story,
hedged by pathos; and still an
other, it may be comedy, real
laugh producing comedy. The
production is magni6cently cast,
has an endless array OF beautiful
scenery, and is one of the best on
the road.
Reserve seat sale opens Satur-
day morning. Prices IS, 50 and

Additional Local.

So great is the enrolment at the Cor
Wallis public schools that for the past
week four of the primary grades have
been dismissed while two additiona.
rooms are being fitted up in the upper
story of the new building to accommodate
a part of the pupils from the intermedi-
ate grades. The enrolment has reached
5s2 and will easily reached the 900 mark
by the first of the year. Two more teach
ers will be required making the total
number Is. Mrs. Julia DuMoulin has
been elected to fill one of the rooms but
the other teacher has not yet been nam
ed. This is certainly splendid enroll
ment, being about 100 more than at this
time last year. Corvallis has ample
reason to be proud of her public schools.

ture by Prot. Frederick Starr of
the University of Chicago, en-
titled "The Truth About the
Congo" Prof. Starr travelled
5000 miles in the heart of Afri ca
to learn the truth about the alleg-
ed atrocities under the rule of
King Leopold and gives an alb
sorbingly interesting account
of twelve months travel in all
parts of the Congo country.
This is the first number of the
best and most popular lyceum
course ever offered to Corvallis
audience. There are five enter
tainmepts secured at cost of
over $500, including two Of the
most noted lecturers on the plat
form today, two extremely popu-
lar musical numbers and a Rogers

There have been several
troupes of jubilee singers who
have pleased Corvallis people in
the past but none have been SO
large as the Slayton Company

lee singers on the road today.
The Rogers-Grilley Recitals
have proved universally satisfac-
tory wherever given in the East.
Mr.. Rogers is a classical artis:
upon the harp, and Mr.. Grilley is
the author of many humorous
skits, coon songs and pathetic
pieces which he sings and recites.
His impersonations are particu
larly good. This promises to be
one of the most unique and variee
Entertainments ever offered to {
Corvallis audience.
In DR.. Thomas E. Green the
