2?osslblo Death of Oregon Secretary
of State Causes Complications.
PORTLAND, Ore., Aug. 20. Sec
retary of State Frank Benson, now
Jn San Francisco, la to have an opera
tion performed for cancer of the
-stomach as a last resort to save his
life. His condition Is so serious that
:grave fears are entertained as to his
recovery.
According 'to the statutes of Ore
gon, the Secretary ot state is tne suc
cessor of the Governor when the lat
ter dies, resigns or leaves the office.
This is of especial Importance when
lt Is remembered that George E.
..Chamberlain, the governor, has re
delved the popular vote for United
States Senator and a majority of the
members of the Legislature are
pledged to elect Chamberlain to the
senate. If the legislature elects Gov-
ernor Chamberlain to the senato to
succeed Charles W. Fulton, the Sec
retary of state will become acting
governor tintil the following general
election giving the secretary of
state the powers of governor and sec
retary and the salaries of both of
fices. The election of Chamberlain
would make Benson the acting gov
ernor and give him two of the three
votes In the state board meeting,
which means almost absolute control
of the political patronage of the state
-Institutions and various and sundry
appointments.
In the event of the deceaso of Ben
son before the convening of the Leg
3slature, Governor Chamberlain
-would have the appointing of a new
secretary of state to fill the unexpired
term. If the governor appointed a
democrat and was then himself elect
ed to the senate, he would still leave
(Oregon with a Democratic governor.

'iNBW YORK, Aug. 20. John Cas-
nldy, an old sailor, with a wooden
leg and minus one eye, who has been
traveling through north Jersey,
.-singing .songs, in an effort to raise
: money with which to buy a glas3 eye
l iorrqplnco one he lost recently, saw
:a crowd of men, women and children
-.standing around a tiee In West Cald
vwell,.N. .J, looking at some object
t Mear the top.
'"ITheftreo was tall, and for about
fifty feet bare as the mast of a ship.
Tho old man, scenting a chanco for a
good collection, hobbled to the spot.
"When he learned that a pet kitten
i belonging to a little girl in tho nelgh-
. borhood had been at the top of the
f tree for over twenty-four hours and
I co-one had been able to coax it down
r -climb up to It the old sailor drop-
ped his bundle and stick, throw his
cap on top of them, and began to
climb the tr.ee.
Men and women stood In amaze
ment. Ho was up to tho first bran
ches in a jiffy, and In not much more
time was descending with tho kitteu
stuffed in tho bosom of his shirt. On
bitten in tho arms of its little mis
reaching tho ground ho placed tho
tress, with a God bless you, then sang
bis song, after telling tho people for
ta'Jiat ho was trying to get money.
