He was with the 2nd Oregon Volunteers in the Philippines. "Do you think it is possible for a man to succeed nowadays without a college education ?" "A good deal depends on what he wishes to succeed at. If he desires to write novels or be a statesman he can get along without it. If he wishes to pitch in one of the base ball leagues it will be almost indis pen sable." Dr. Frank Hall, of Albion Wash., had his shoulder broken in a runaway accident recently. He was driving a livery team when one of the bridles broke and came off the horse's head.

The basket ball game in Col lege Armory Friday night settles the question of whether or not the OAC men are to be champions of Oregon. It they win that game, their title will be clear to the state collegiate championship. They re cently beat the Dallas team on the latter" s own field, but may have been assisted in the trick by ab sence of one of the best men in the -Dallas team from the play. Howev er, Bilyeu, one of OAC's best men was out of the game, so' that the victory may have been actually earned, ine score in the game was so close that it means but little, standing at 18 for OAC, and 17 for Dallas.

The great Christian Endeavor convention that for four days held forth in Corvallis, is history. On , the early trains yesterday the dele-! gates departed for their homes, j there to put into practice the les- j sons and ideas obtained from the ; splendid sessions at which so many j bright minds were present, and where so many helpful things were said. From every standpoint, the convention was a success, a fact that was largely due to the minis ters of the city who had the matter of arrangement in charge, and who labored to make all things work to gether that harmony might pre-! vail. At the First Methodist . church Friday evening, an immense au dience was present to hear the ex cellent report of Field Secretary Sharp, of Portland, and the excel- ent address on ' 'The Abundant Life" that was delivered by Rev. Muckley. of the First Christian church of Portland. A iadeJ Chorus under the direction of Mrs. E. F. Green, and a vocal solo by Dr. Cathey added to the pleasure of the occasion. vThe sessions Saturday were held in the Presbyterian church, the afternoon being largely devoted to visiting the college and showing the visitors around the city. Sat urday night the reception at the Armory was one of the happy ev ents of the week, probably 700 peo ple being present. Excellent mu sic was furnished by Turney's or chestra, punch was served to all, and at the conclusion of the affair, everyone was presented with a Bouvenir pennant, on which was an OAC monogram and the words, "Corvallis Oregon." TheArmory was beautifully decorated with En deavor mottoes, festoons of crepe paper and bunting, and as the crowd moved hither and thither, the room presented a scene of bril liancy. Sunday morning, after a prayer service, the visitors attended Sun day school at the various churches, and at 11 o'clock the local pulpits were filled by the visiting clergy men as follows: Presbyterian, Rev. A. A. Winter, of Portland ; Congregational Emery Dye, Oregon City; United Evangelical. Rev. Comack; Chiistian, Rev. Ella Humbert, Eugene; First Method ist, Rev. Wiliiam Bell, of Berkeley, California. At the Junior Rally held at three o'clock Sunday afternoon, Mrs. Commerford of Goldendale, Wash, gave an interesting talk. Bishop Bell also addressed the College Y. M. C. A. at the same hour. Sunday evening was spent in attending the regular Endeavor meetings until the closing meeting began at the Armory at 7 :4s, when the building was fiiled, and every one listened with keenest apprecia tion to the talk by Field Secretary Sharp, and the powerful and im pressive sermon by Bishop Bell. A mixed chorus and the college or chestra furnished music. Rev. Hurd had charge of the singing. A feature of the closing minutes of the convention was the reading and adoption of the resolutions drafted by the committee, in which it was resolved that the sympathy of the convention be extended to Eugene in this time, of trouble, the prayer of the assembly being that" the scourge may soon be lifted from that city. Thanks were ex tended to the citizens, churches and college of Corvallis, for the splend id welorne extended the convention; Corvallis was congratulated on hav driven from her midst the saloons and 'blind tiger" and the Endeav orers pledged themselves to aid in every way possible and in every section where they might be sit uated, the overthrow of the saloon business, and the abolishment of the liquor, traffic. This resolution elicited much applause from the au dience. It was 10 o'clock when all joined in singing, "God be with You 'til we Meet, Again," and with an im pressive benediction by Mr. Sharp, the 1906 C. E. convention came to a close. ' Wanted.

Mayor Johnson's veto of the beef ordinance was presented to the council at a special meeting last night. As was recently explained in the Times, the ordinance placed a tax of $15 per day on the ped dling of beef, mutton or pork in Cdrvallis. The members of the council voted to sustain the veto. The veto message is as follows; "I beg to herewith return ordin ance bill number 190 as passed by you at a meeting held on Feb ruary 12, 1906, without my approv al. I submit as reasons for its non- approval that beef, mutton and pork are without question a prod- duct of the farm hence it is beyond our power to except such products as the ordinance attempts to do; in as much as our state law and the decisions of the courts are to the effect, that no county or municipal lty can license the sole of our farm and garden products and I submit that it would not be prudent to do so, even were we permitted so to do; as the success of our merchants and the upbuilding of our city depends very largely upon the co-operation with and successful operations of, our farmers hereabout. Too, I un derstand that it was not the inten tion of a single member of your Honorable Body to prevent fhe sale of such products by the actual grow er thereof, but rather to prevent an outsider from purchasing, killing and peddling the same, and this I think you will find to be covered by the ordinance now upon our ordin ance book. "So I return said ordinance No. 190 herewith, with my veto. Respectfully, A. J. Johnson. Mayor. This the 19th day of Feby- 1906." Oak wood, stove lengths. Call at Saw Mill Co.
