(Herald Specially

Corvallis, Ore, June 10-A week OF
celebration began today at the Oregon
Agricultural College in honor of the
completion of its first quarter century
of existence as separate institution
Preparations for the celebration have
been going forward for several months
and an attractive program for the
event has been arranged. Dramatic
performances and social functions are
scheduled for the first two days. Sun
day morning the 'baccalaureate ser
mon will be preached by the Rev. DR..
F. w. Clampett of San Francisco.
Monday and Tuesday will be the big
days of the celebration. President

tana Agricultural College will be the

Oregon Agricultural College is
among the most progressive institu-
tons of its kind in the United States.
1t is one of the numerous land grant
colleges" founded under the authority
of the Morrill, act of congress in 1862
and the Hatch act of 1887 AS there
were no state colleges in Oregon in
1868, the legislature gave the interest
upon the educational fund to Corvallis
College, a private institution in Ben
ton county, which was then under the
control of the NJ. E. church, South.
None of the land was sold for num-
Der of years, and the legislature made
small annual appropriations for the
support of the school, In 1885 the
church voluntarily relinquished its
claim and the state assumed control.
Two years later the corner stone was
laid for the first of the college build |
ings, now known as the Administra- |
ton Building. From this humble be-
ginning the college has grown until it
now has eighteen buildings and cam
pus and grounds covering two hun
dred and twenty-four acres.

room of the Santa Fe shops in this
city gave a surprise reception the
other night for Mr.. Derby in honor
of his promotion The party was given
at his home, 1907 Seward avenue. 49,
During the progress of the love
feast, G. L. Mason of the tool room
force made a presentation speech,
during which Mr.. Derby was given
Masonic ring. This was presented to
him as token and a compliment from
the men in the tool room to the abil-
ity and popularity of the foreman and
to his rise in the railroad work
Henry Derby has been with the
1884. In this year he started work as
machinist in the Topeka shops. He
worked for ten years at this occupa-
ton and then resigned to go with the
Bell Telephone company of this city.
After few years with the telephone
company, Mr.. Derby was induced by
the Santa Fe to return to their en-
ploy. His ability as a machinist and
as an organizer of men and a main
tainer of company rules made him a
valuable man
Mr.. Derby was with the Santa Fe
only four years when he was given the
important position as foreman of the
tool room. After his four years sue
cess in this work he was recognized by
the officials as being the man for the
new position over the tool work on
the entire Santa Fe system and he was
rendered the position
Mr.. Derby will be succeeded by H.
NJ. Otto of the tool room who will
take up the new work as foreman at
once.

MARSHALL IN THE PULPIT.
Assistant Attorney General Delivers
Address at First Baptist Church.

The SUNDAY morning service at the
First Baptist church was given over
to the State Temperance union The
speaker was John Marshall He spoke
in a general way of the history of the
temperance movement in Kansas, and
then replied to the assertion that is
sometimes made that you can't make
better men through making laws, Civ
ing proofs of the effectiveness of our
laws.
He stated that there are various
ways of explaining the cause of the
prosperity which the United States and
Kansas in particular is enjoying One
of the speakers at the Kansas Day
banquet maintained that it was large
ly due to the fact that we are meat
eating people; the company text book
of the National Brewers association
claims that it is because we as ma
ton drink certain amount of spirit
uous liquors: but he considered the
explanation to be that as people we
conform to the laws of God more near
" than other nations of the earth.

KEEP THE FAIR DATES.
Hutchinson Show May Be Moved up a
Week

1t is likely that the Kansas State
Fair company will keep the fair dates
September 11-1Szwhich were
chosen some weeks ago, and in all
probability the Hutchinson fail will
move its date forward a week. The
meeting of the secretaries of the fairs
belonging to the Kansas and Okla
homa circuit which was held the last
two days of he week broke up in a
hubbub, although neither Hutchinson
nor Topeka had any part in the con-
troversy. The trouble arose among
the secretaries of the smaller towns of
the circuit and it was a matter of dates
that could not be agreed upon.
Hutchinson secured both of the fu-
turity races for 500 each. The ques-
ton of dates will be finally settled by
the board of directors of the circuit
in the course of about ten days.

ONE ON AUDITOR LARIN1ER.
His Spelling Causes a Stir With County
commissioners.

A small document was exhibited in
the session of the commissioners this
morning which is said to reflect on the
ability of the county officers to spell.
County Auditor James E. Larimer had
written to the commissioners to get all
bills ready for fast run last week and
explained that he was going to En-
poria and could not get back until
Friday mite -
Commissioner O'Neil wrote on the
back of the note and sent it to Lari-
mer: eff the county auditor can't
spel1e any better than that he won't
get mulch help from the bord,'' and
he signed it u B. Symns chairman"
The commissioners probably do not
appreciate the fact that this is re-
vised spelling and that Auditor Lari-
mer is a Roosevelt, disciple,
