LIFE.
Every life represents a tragedy.
T .e thread which sustains life
is of weak fiber and delicate m
d. :,'gn. It is snapping every
S( cend of time, and life is snuff
er oat in a twinkling and with
no more apparent effort than is
ri -mred to "blowout the candle"
w. ion one repairs to the downy
cr- i 'h to indulge in sweet dreams
or hideous nightmare. Our own
ii ' ; n riddle to all of US. It
c niains mystery which baffles
all understanding. The secre
tive quality "is more or less active
in all human lives.
All of us struggle along, each
bowed unded some burden of his
own, and which he cannot shift
to other shoulders, try he ever
so hard. There are sorrows and
aches hidden in every human
heart and they are to remain
there until relentless Fate snaps
the tiny thread of life and all is
over. We little know the heart
secrets of our neighbors yea! of
our dearest friends even. We
cannot guess these secrets nor
can the possessor of them tell of
the weight of sorrow and bitter
ness which may be crushing him.
'Tis better so, for then all
mankind would be still more
.miserable.
Lucky, indeed, is that being
who in reality is care-free, or
even nearly so, who can laugh
and ioke and feel no responsibi
lity, for then he is immune from
that which is bearing a friend to
earth. He who can at all times
enjoy life lives indeed. But we
cannot all be of such a nature,
trv however hard we may.
Nearly all of us, being intimate
with our own sorrows, wish our
selves other than we are, and in
deed it would be better for the
world if some of us were differ
ent. We are not so charitable in
dealing with what we term the
short comings of our fellows as
we mi.-xht be, but this itself is
life. We wish ourselves differ
ent, but we can no more change
our natures than the leopard
can change his spots.
The world grows older, but
life is ever the same and human
nature changes little, if any.
Some men live for wealth, some
for fame, some for the joy of
affection for their kind, some
for sorrow, toil and pain and
still others for the carnival of
joy which has become the
breath of life to them. Each
being lives for something and
has an inward vision of possible
happiness as well as the outward
physical and material realities
whjjh rise as obstacles on every
hand. All these things go to
mike up life; they are part of
life and without these possibilities
life would not mean what it
does. How fleeting is life after
all, and yet quite often long
enough. The thread is weak and
si.il!, sometimes, quite strong.
The latest in railror.d circles
likely to prove of interest to Cor
vallisites is the rumor that
KjiTiman may take it into his
head to extend the C. & E. on
east to Vale, Eastern Oregon.
We know the route is far more
feasible and a better-paying
proposition than the late John
!I. Mitcheh's talked of road to
Mars. We hope the last reports
of C. : E. possibilities are well
grounded. Eugene Schmitz, erstwhile
mayor of San Francisco, was sen
tenced a few days ago by Judge
Dunne to five years in the pen
itentiary for extortion while in
office. The ex-mayor received
his sentence with such boldness
and defiance of manner has rob
bed him of the little sympathy
that might otherwise have heen
his. There are other indictments
against Schmitz, bat it is doubt
ful if they are ever brought
against him. Within a day or two
the convicted grafter's attorneys
will have prepared an appeal for
a new trial. - To the great
credit of Judge Dunne it should
be stated that he appears to be
doing his duty with the utmost
fearlessness. .
Plug Hat Did It.
An amusing thing occurred up
in Seattle the first of this week,
which is related in an Oregonian
dispatch from that city as
follows: Jubt one hour after he
had arrived in Seattle as an
Eskimo delegate from the
Aleutian Islands to the annual
Christain Endeavor National
Convention a native Alaskan was
on his way home again aboard
the steamship Rainier. The
native missionary had no more
than landed in Seattle before he
learned that the prominent En
deavorers were expected to wear
silk hats and frock-coats to meet
Vice- President Fairbanks and
on other occasions. As soon as
he heard this the Eskimo En-
deavorer returned to the dock
booked passage on the steamship
Rainier, sailing this afternoon
with freight for Katalla, and
started for home again. He
will have to find some boat at
Katalla for Valdez and go from
that point to the islands, but the
Northern missionary refused to
wait for better accommodations.
As a matter of fact the original
decision to enforce the wearing
of frock-coats and silk hats on
formal occasions was done away
with, but the Eskimo missionary
did not wait to learn that much.
He did not even register here
as a delegate, and officers of the
steamship Olympia who can pro
nounce, cannot spell his name.
Many Going.
Many Easterners are coming
west and many local residents
are going East, as result of the
cheap rates that are now on.
Such an opportunity has never
before been afforded the travel
ing public, and it is small wonder
that last week saw several Cor
vallisites depart for the East,
while others are planning to come
West.
Still other rates begin Septem
ber lsti and continue until Octo
ber 31st. This is the rate that
brings the actual settlers to Ore
gon and means that people can
come to this state from Kansas
City. St. Paul, Minneapolis, and
all the great territory between
the Missouri River and the Rocky
Mountains tor $25.
It should be borne in mind that
the most important thing of all is
that these people must buy their
tickets direct to the towns they
want to reach. This is true with
regard to Medford, Eugene, The
Dalles, Astoria, and every other
city or town in Oregon. Many
people get the impression that
they can come to Portland and
then continue their trip to point

Wedded Yesterday.
A very pretty wedding occurre d
yesterday forenoon at 11 o'clock
at the Episcopal church, the
bride being Miss Elizabeth,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George
Armstrong of Benton county, and
the groom, Richard Harte Keat
inge, of Palo Alto, California.
The church was lavishly
decorated for the occasion with
asparagus fern, clematis and
choice roses and was very beautiful-
While the guests were arriving
at the church Miss Lulu Spang
ler sang two solos with splendid
effect.
At the appointed hour Mrs.
Inez Wilson took her place at the
organ and the bridal party enter
ed the edifice and marched up the
aisle to positions at the chancel
rail. The ring ceremony " was
performed by Rev. Simpson of
Portland, assisted by Rev. Arm
strong of the local church, the
bride being given away by her
father.
The bride was beautifully gown
ed in white crepe de chine with
full veil, caught in place with
real orange blossoms. Her sister,
Miss Catherine Armstrong, was
maid of honor, while four girl
friends, Misses Louise Emmons
of Portland, Maud Van Dusen of
Astoria, Polly Hewitt of Portland
and Nancy Keatinge of Palo Alto
acted as bride's maids. The
maid of honor wore a costume of
pale green, while the maids were
prettily attired in Princess dresses
of white mull, with lingerie hats
Charles Armstrong,' brother of
the bride, was best man.
A delicious wedding breakfast
was served at the home of Miss
Snell in this city, and later in
the day the happy couple depart
ed for British Columbia on a
honeymoon trip. They will re
side in Palo Alto, where the good
wishes of a host of friends follow
them-
