West at present and a letter
bearing this intelligence was the
flrst wet blanket that settled over
/ SamuePs spirits with depressing
effect. But more trouble was to
follow Other unexpected things
happened which caused Dr.
Cathey to decide to spend his
vacation at 4achaats instead OF
IN the Cascades. That was dis
appointment number two, but
5. 3. was not to be bluffed. He
kept on hoping and expected to
leave yesterday or TODAY with
Rev. Leech for the mountains.
when the solar p1le1as Knockout
blow came in the form of a sub
] poena onthe United States grand
jury in Portland and Samuel
leaves Thursday to honor that
august body with his presence.
1t is hoped no murder cases will
come up for hearing while
Brother B. is on the jury, for
there isn't the slightest doubt
but that he will be in favor of
hanging the whole court.
A committee from the Coffee
Club was to wait on the city
council at the regular meeting
last night and ask for site on
Main street on which to locate
the public drinking fountain to
be erected by them in commem-
oration of the 24th anniversary
of their organization. tits stated
they intended to ask for a site
at the First National bank corn
er, and there are those about
town who offer objections to this,
in advance, on the ground that
this IS "the very location ir town !,
for a fountain and the city and
citizens should erect a larger
and more expensive fountain
there than the one for which the.
site is to be sought by the club"
The Gazette has no comment to
make. on this point, but as to the
ountains-by all means let us
have them! The need is one
that has frequently been men
toned, but as yet no action has
been taken. Not only do we
need fountains for mankind, but
let US have public watering
troughs' for the faithful horse
that is now compelled to go.from
morning until noon and from
noon until night without water, I
because there is no place to drive ,
lp to and let him quench his 7
hlrst. The Gazette agitated this :
subject year ago and is glad to f
ldd its voice now to the general
'ry that is being made for foun- 4,
aims and for watering troughs. =

Ex-County Surveyor Cecil
Wygant is busy at Oysterville in
the Yaquina river making a to-
biographical survey of the oyster
beds under the auspices of the
state board of fisheries for gov
ernment statistics. The beds
cover four lineal miles and con-
tain over a thousand acres. He
is dividing the private beds from
those that belong to the govern
ment, and separating the East
ern transplanted oysters from
the native specie. Governor
Chamberlain made a special trip
last spring with Mr.. Wygant to
determine if the survey could be

A petition has been in circu-
lation in Corvallis the past few
days asking that a meeting of
the school board be held for the
purpose of determining the FEAST
bility of establishing the 10th,
11th and 18th grades in the Cor
Wallis public school. Nearly ev-
eryone has signed the paper, as
allrecognize the importance and
desirability of the movement.
With the new entrance require
ments in force at the college, it
will be impossible for the ninth
grade graduates from the public
school to enter OAC without
further high school training, and
the move to establis h the higher
grades will meet this new condi-
ton in the nick of time. The
action will certainly be heartily
approved by every citizen of our
progressive city. |

Western Christian Scientist, at one
of her latest audiences, an snecdote
about friend of hers.
This friend, a thin and nervous
woman, could not sleep. She visited
her physician and the man said:
"Do you eat anything just before
going to bed?
"Oh, no, DOCTOR" the patient re
piled.
"Well," said the physician, "jusi
keep a pitcher OF milk and some bis
cults beside you, and every night, the
last thing you do, make light
meal"
But, DOCTOR" cried the lady
you told me on no account TO ca,
anything before retiring"
"Pooh, pooh" said the doctor
shat was three months ago. Science
has made enormous strides since
then"
