Twe Corvallis boys were guil
ty of a bit of conduct one day
this week of which they should
be heartily ashamed. Accord
ing to the Gazette's informant,
they stole the gin placed by his
countrymen on the grave of Ti,
the Chinaman whose death we
chronicled last issue, drank it,
and got roaring drunk. Either Of
these offences was bad enough,
but collectively they admit- of no
excuse whatever.
Who, among Corvallisites of
any length of residence, does not
remember J. E. Halliday, the
peculiar litsde English gentle
man, who for many yeais- made
this city his home. If there be
any such, they as well as later
comers, may soon have the op
portunity of making his acquaint
ance, for Mr. Halliday has all
the symptoms which indicate his
early return to this oity.
During his residence here Mr.
Halliday made many fast friends,
for despite his eccentric manner
and odd ways", he was a good
fiiend and conscientious citizen.
In the early eighties he was
called to England by the death
of his father, who bequeathed
his mansion and Other valuable
property at Warminster to his
son in Corvallis. After a years'
absence in England, Mr. Halli
day again visited this city, re
turning to Warminster in 1885
or 1886.
Some years ago, an article
from the London Times, repub
lished in this country, greatly
amused former acquaintances of
j Mr. Halliday in this city, for it
showed that caaage of residence
and environments had not alter
ed the eccentric character of the
fussy little bachelor who had af
forded material for many amus
ing anecdotes during his resi
lience here.
Among the heirlooms be
queathed by the elder Halliday,
was a highbacked pew in the
little church at Warminster. A
progressive wave struck the
parishioners of Mr. Halliday's
church and they decided to re
place the old pews with new
ones, up-to-date. But Mr. Hal
liday did net propose that his
pew should be altered, and there
it stood out like a sore finger,
marring the beauty of the in
terior of the little chapel. "That
pew must oomeout," declared
the incensed congregation. "I'll
stand you a law suit first, w re
torted Mr. Halliday. And a
lawsuit followed which threat
ened to become as bitter as that

The Order of Eastern Star held a
meeting Tuesday night for the elec

Teachers' Association, which will be

Prof. W. W. Bristow, formerly of
this city, but now of McMinnville,
will also entertain and instruct on
this subject. Supt. Denffian will
give his views on "Desirable Modi
fications in the State Course of
Study." Prof. S. I. Pratt will take
part in the discussion of "Elemen
tary Educator."
celebrated one in "Bleak
House." It was finally settled,
however, and Mr. Halliday now
reluctantly worships in a low
backed pew.
Notwithstanding his foreign
birth, Mr. Halliday was at heart
an ardent American, and his
residence abroad has not damp
ened his ardor. When war was
imminent between this Country
and Spain, Mr. ..Halliday was
most anxious for tie success of
United States in the pending
conflict. Writing to friends in
this city he avowed his desire to
become a secret service agent for
the American government or to
assist in any other way in his
power.
A few days ago Mr. Creighton,
of this city, recived a letter from
Mr. Halliday stating that he had
sold all the furnishings of his
home and intended to return
to America, the land that
fee loved. Accompanying the
letter was a catalogue "ef the
greater portion of the capital
furnish f the residenoe and out
door effects" of the Mansion
Warmin9ter, which was to be
sold at auction November 8 and
