Iter. .Mr. Trimble Is not accounted a sensationalist, but that he la original, no one mill deny. Ids sermon on mar rUce waa appwlated alike by mar ried and unmarried. . Horn-ever, there was itreat surprise when the pastor, at the close of the sermon, announced that he would unite In wedlock Mr. Amadon and Miss Toonj. While It semed a flttlnc rtimax to the address, it caused old and young to sit up and take notice. A larsr concresatlon was present. Included In which vers numerous youns people, to horn the pastor's re marks were directed with special force. They were told how lovers should art. mere advised that a couple should know each- other well before entering; Into mirriaict and were Im pressed with the solemnity of the wed dinc vows. The unliue ceremony was the result of the application ofths couple to Iter. Mr. Trimble to perform their marrlac ceremony, tie explained to them that he was irotnc to preach on marriage, and explained his Ideas on the subject. He asked them if they would consent to be married following his sermon, and. after considering It. both said It would be alt right. Arrangements were made accordingly. Caattoa Court-hip Advlx-d. Ker. Mr. Trimble. In his sermon, said. In part: T he true basis of union In the mar riage tie la found In affinities In char acter. Let husband and wife be the true complements of one another In this relation and the result will be In variably happy. Ths misfits matri monially are due to an Improper and unaise courtship. Courtships should never b a matter of Impulse, but of caution not so much a process of woo in. as one of discovery. To be enam ored by the flash of the ee. the pret ty frm. the sth of t'ie dress, the delicate hand, or ths plumage In which ths bird shines, may be exceedingly unsafe. It may be well for youns; peo ple to be interested In one another, but they ought to know why. Veil to love, but they should know whit they are loving. The basis for Interest shild be something deeper than an at traction of the mere outward person. True love Invests Its object with a character and Its current Is no pass ing shallow thing, but runs as deep as the human soul and is as divine In character as God's own love. I.ove at F1rt Sight Doubted. Love at first sight? Mere fancy and wlll-o'-ihe-wisp: love finds its basis in character and character Is not revealed at first sight. The time and nature of courtship then should be such as to give the principals an adequate knowledge of one another in char acter. "The basts of union being character, the folly of entering Into this contract ln youth is apparent. The tastes and Ideals change vastly from IS to 25. Manhood and womanhood should first be attained, until then our mothers should always be cognisant when we are .out. The law regards those not of age as Incapable of entering into a civil contract. How. then, are they qualified to enter into that contract on which the home, posterity and all things vital depend? Courting Is no mere child's play."

Big among the fiction merit of the month Is the cleverly written story of -The Mask of Truth." by Katharine Metcalf Hoof. In the Smart Set maga zine for April. It Is the leading fea ture and a good appetiser to the en tertaining list of other stories and poetry that follows. The Smart Set business direction has now passed Into the capable bands of Jobn Adams Thayer and tats friends. Malcolm and Colwell Thought Sure of PlacesAs Customs Appraiser Johnson In Opposed Carl S. Kelty May Be Named. Canadian reciprocity and tariff re vision at the hands of the special ses sion of Congress, which convenes one week from tomorrow, April 4, are not the only topics of absorbing interest to Oregonlans. Almost paramount Is the distribution of three eagerly sougfit Federal plums Appraiser and Collec tor of Customs and United States Marshal. That President TafU early in the ses sion, will send to the Senate appoint ments for each of these offices is -expected. Who the appointees will be is the question that concerns the respect ive applicants for the positions, and at the same time perplexes an Interested public. There is a strong suspicion here that President Taft will again send to the Senate for confirmation the appointment of P. S. Malcolm as Col lector of Customs and ETmer B. Col well for I'nited States Marshal. No body assumes to know who will re ceive the Indorsement of the Presi dent as successor to th late General Owen Summers as Appraiser. Names Are Withdrawn. Following unfavorable reports from committees of the nominations of Mal colm and Colwell to the respective of fices they now hold. President Taft, in the regular session of Congress, re called their names. In the meantime, Malcolm will continue In office until his successor Is appointed and quali fied. With Colwell. the situation is slightly different. Just before the reg ular session adjourned, the President sent Colwell's name again to the Sen ate, which adjourned without having lime further to consider the nomina tion. By that action of the President. Colwell has received a commission cov ering the recess appointment which holds until the close of the special ses sion. The action of the President In send ing Colwell's name back to the Sen ate at ths last minute of the regular session Is taken to Indicate his pref erence for Colwell. It is accepted as a further evidence that the appointing power Is not ready to desert either Col welUor Malcolm at this time and for that reason It Is confidently expected bv the friends of these men that Taft will again send their nominations to the Senate during the extraordinary session. The only other name men tioned la connection with either of ths two offices Is that of John B. Coffey, who has been suggested as a successor to Colwell. should the Senate refuse to confirm Colwell's appointment. Three Named for Appraiser. The situation attending the appoint ment of a new Appraiser is more com plicated. Senator Bourne has indorsed L. H. Adams for this place. Represent ative Hawley some time ago gave his Indorsement to C. V. Johnson, of Cor- vallls. Carl S. Kelty. a Portland news paper man. Is being supported for the appointment by Representative Laffer ty. Johnson also has the iriorsement of R. K. Williams, National Committee man for Oregon, who is inclined to stand with Hawley because of the lat- ter's activity In securing the enact ment of legislation for the relief of the Siletz settlers, in which Williams is said to have been largely Interested personally. In the meantime letters and tele grams have been forwarded by many Republicans to members of the Oregon delegation and the President at Wash ington, protesting against the appoint ment of Johnson because he-- Is not a resident of the district in which th port Is located and for the further rea son that he openly bolted the Republic an ticket In the last general election and supported the Democratic nominee for Governor against the regularly nominated Republican candidate. Kelty's Position Good. An especially active campaign is be ing waged at this end of the line in the Interest of Kelty. The newspaper man and his friends are obtaining scores of Indorsements fr.om prominent Re publicans urging his appointment. With Johnson eliminated from the con test, it is believed Kelty will be in a good position to ask for the support of the entire delegation. All three of these appointments be long to the President himself. It is only due to the fact that it has been customary for the Chief Kxecutive to consult the wishes of the members of the delegation in making these ap pointments that Oregon's Senators and Representatives have figured so prom inently In their determination. Owing to the inability of the delegation to agree on candidates to be recommend ed, because of factional differences, there Is a growing disposition on the part of Republicans to urge the Presi dent to proceed with his appointments independently of individual recom mendations of the members of the del egation from this state. TROOPS TO BE REVIEWED Governor West and StaTf to Inspect Third Oregon and Battery A. Governor West will review the Third Oregon Infantry and Battery A.. Wed nesday night for the first time. He will appear as Commander-in-Chief of the Oregon National Guard, with. his military aides, at the quarterly inspection of the regiment at the Armory'. Tenth and Couch streets. The review In honor of the Governor mill occur Immediately after the Inspec tion. Colonel T. N. Dunbar, command ing the Third, has ordered assembly "for S:15 P. M. The regiment will turn out in dress uniform with the regimental band In attendunce. An ''unusually large attendance Is looked for. as the various company commanders have been recruit ing their organizations for some time past, and Interest in the regiment has never been more intense among ofllcers and men. 1 Following the review the guests of the occasion will be entertained informally In the ortVcrs' quarters. A military hop will occur st the same time in the bis ballroom at the Armory. VOTERS TOUT MEN FOR COUNCIL J July 1, are: First Ward, T. J. Concan- I P. Kennedy (Rep.) and George Tazwell Republican Committee, Muni cipal Association and Mass x Meetings Are Agencies. OFFICES SOUGHT BY MANY Scores to Enter -Race for Nine Places in CItIc Body Seven Al ready File Announcements in Seventh Wrard. Greater interest Is being taken this year by the voters in candidates for Councilmen and what they advocate than has been manifested In years. The qual ifications of every such candidate as to residence and citizenship will be in quired into by the Republican City Cen tral Committee. Each aspirant will be scrutinized further by the Municipal As sociation and, if found objectionable, this organization will bring out other candidates. In addition to these tests, men seeking election to the Cotlncil must measure up to the requirements of an exacting constituency or find opposition In other candidates recommended for nomination through the medium of mass meetings which are planned in different sections of the city. With these several mediums for iden tifying candidates and ascertaining what they stand for In municipal administra tion, voters will be enabled intelligently to make their selection of candidates and to vote accordingly. While the executive committee of the Republican City Cen tral Committee has emphatically dis approved of mass meetings for bringing out Councilmanle timber, these meet ings nrobablv will be held anyway. The action of the party committee, however. In repudiating such gatherings oecause of their resemblance to assemblies and the suspicion that they are being In spired by forces Inimical ta-the best in terests of the city, will have the effect of causing all candidates suggested at such meetings to undergo a most thor ough scrutiny. Nine Councilmen to Be Elected. Nine Councilmen are to be nominated In' the primaries May 6 and elected in the municipal election on June 5. Of that' number four are Councilmen-at-large and five are Ward Councilmen. Of the former. John H. Burgard. who was elected by the Council to fill the unexpired term of Thomas C. Devlin, will be a candidate to succeed himself for the remaining two years of Devlin's term. Ths other retiring Councllmen-at-large are: John Annana. ueorge u. cellars and M. J. Driscoll.

Joseph T. Ellis. Petitions are being circulated asking for the recall of Ellis who has two years to serve. Announcements Come Slowly. Including Burgard, four Councilmen at-large are to be elected. Only four candidates thus far have announced their candidacy for these nominations: Bur gard. for the short term; Driscoll. George L. Baker, retiring Councilman from the Fourth Ward, and Will. F. Daly, who has the Indorsement of organized labor. While Rev. C. T. McPherson has announced that he will be a candidate for Councilman-at-large, he has not filed that announcement withfthe City Audi tor. Dr. F. A. Brown, who is being urged by the Municipal Association to become a candidate for Councilman-at' large, hae also failed tomake the re- oulred filing in the Auditor's orttce. In seeking re-election from the First Ward, Councilman Concannon, the only Democratic member of the present Coun cil, will be opposed in the primaries by Tom N. Monks (Dem.) and two KepuDll cans Ed Halseth and Jordan V. Zan. All three have filed announcements. W. C. Hazeltlne, of the firm of Hazel tine & Company, is the only candidate now in the field to succeed Baker as Councilman from the -Fourth. In the Sixth Ward, from which Belding will run for re-election, no other candidates have entered the contest. Belding has not filed a formal announcement of his candidacy. Seven File in Seventh It is in the Seventh Ward that the crop of candidates to succeed Rushlight is prolific. Seven candidates already have filed their announcements while -a mass meeting of Sell wood citizens, sched uled for Wednesday night, will suggest another man. There are yet other can didates in sight, two or three residents of the Lents district considering enter ing the race. Of the seven candidates who have filed announcements, Walter Adams is the only one who has quali fied as a candidate by filing a nominat ing petition. The other six candidates are: William R. Lake. W. G. Urfer, A. C. Wagner. A. A. Hoover, Frank M. Cuba and J. E. Shears. A lively contest is also in prospect In the Eighth Ward from which Kubli, who was elected by the Council to fill the unexpired terra of the late Frank S. Bennett, will run for re-election. He will bo opposed In the primaries by C. V. Howard and W. S. Halvor, Republicans. Frank M. Kelly has also filed as a can didate for the Democratic nomination.
