Governor on Extra Session Not So Sure Legislators Will Com plete Their Work in Time to Quit Before Christmas. s While In Seattle a few days ago Gov ernor Chamberlain submitted' to an In terview on the subject of the coming extra session. He said: ' '' "The legislature will convene Decem ber 21. It has been said by some peopla In Oregon that I called the legislature together on that date so they would be compelled to pass the tax bill Immed iately and adjourn, or continue the ses sion over the Christmas holidays, some thing that It Is claimed the lawmakers will hot desire to do. ' " ',' ' " . V "While I feel that the session will be brief, one cannot predict with' safety the prqbable action of the legislature, once It Is In session. It may be a day or two will be sufficient, but the legis lature mljght conclude to adjourn over Christmas and continue the session- "Two alternatives are presented in solving the tax problem. The Phelps act can be amended so as to permit the collection of taxes levied this year, or the old tax law can be re-enacted after the Phelps act has been repealed. I think the legislature will have a pretty clear" "Idea of its Intention before re assembling, and the work will be done speedily. Whatever follows will be of another character of legislation."

He remained a short time at Georgetown, and during the afternoon started out again, following along the Northern Pacific tracks. At a bend In -the. road the engineer noticed a man on the track and blew the whistle. The distance was too short to stop, and apparently the man did not hear the whistle. The engine struck him and hurled him a considerable distance from the track. When he was picked up by the crew he was conscious, but soon lost his reason. Assistance was summoned and Wnit temore was taken to the countyhosplta for treatment. It was found that his skull was" fractured and the scalp laid bare for about six inches on the right side.

Bogus Check Man Arrseted ' '' , '' ' ' ' ,.. L T. Ray, Alleged Lawyer, Gath ered in by Seattle Police on Charge of Forgery. Seattle, Dec. 10. L. V. Ray, who gives his occupation as a lawyer, is booked at police headquarters without a charge opposite his name. He was ar rested yesterday morning by Detectives Kennedy and Byrne in his room In the Oregon house on a telegram from Mt. Vernon, stating he was wanted for for gery. The Skagit .county officers are expected here today after him. ' According to the information in the hands of the police, Ray, untn a short time ago, was the Bookkeeper for the Fldaigo Lumber Company.-brMt Verr" non. He resigned his position and came to Seattle, bringing with him a check In full payment for his services to the date of hls'reglgnabhT! . , On Saturday last it .is alleged that Ray went to the Log Cabin saloon on Columbia street, and he presented a check. for JUS. purporting to be signed' by the Fldelo Lumber Company ln'fhls favor. He asked to have it cashed, ' statin? that it was his check for serv ices rendered. , The proprietor of the saloon, before giving him ihe money, went to tha telephone and called up the. mill at Mt. Vernon, and was informed that the check' was a forgery. On tills statement, without arousing any sus picion in Ray's mind, the proprietor of the saloon put him off about cashing the check until later.' v The mill company," as soon as it learned of the forgery, Informed the sheriff, nd he in turn notified tie local police, asking that. Ray be picked up and held until he could arrive for him. Ray is a youna; man and dresses in the height of fashion. It was noon when the officers found him in his room, and he expressed a desire to be allowed to get ills dinner before going to' the station. . However, at that time, the officers did not have time, and when Ray was searched atithe station he did not have a cent' in his pockets.

' Frank and Chief, the two horse at No. 1 engine house, are now In splen did condition and fit for a ' run any time from the court houBe to Upper town. The former, which when pur chased two years ago looked very poor, ly and weighed but 1120 pounds, now tips the beam at 1840, and is as fine a looking animal as could be desired. Chief does not weigh much less, and Driver Llewelyn Is very proud of their condition, ' . , - vTi '.. 1 ... . The powerful current that proved the undoing of the Italian bark Cavour was distinctly, noticeable In front of this city, .The vessels in the stream tugged at their anchors and those at the docks strained at their moorings. ? Later in the. day the river appeared to be liter- ally full of logs, that raced by'the city with lightning like rapidity. Loggers up the' river will doubtless suffer,' as It is evident rafts had been broken up. Ths logs under such Circumstances, of course can not be saved, so It will prove a total loss. !" ' ' J ' When Vou marry a man, love him. A famous writer -ono said, "I pity the ' man, who, after marrying, finds all lie t,a mhnar fit hi matYOVA fpS !fl ft dress form, t! medicine chest- and a whining V(Ace.,'.i..Z,..,..a,,,,.., " A woman who mafrles a second time runs two risks; she may regret that she lost her flrstj .husband or that she did not always have the second one. But, lrt the first case, her second hus band may regret her first husband even more than she does, and tell her so, too. When an invitation Is received and It . Is not accepted it Is customary simply to send the card without anything writ- , ten on It; the card Implies "regrets." In case of acceptance, no card Is sent; one goes oneself. The' divorced wife of a millionaire advised girls not to marry a man of millions, and it seems to have struck ; a happy chord. None of ' our girls are marrying men. worth more than a quar ter of a million,1 and from that down U to thirty cents.
