Registration reopens Sept. 20. Closes for election Oct. 20. Presidential election Nov. 3. In his second battle Bryan car ried only four small Northern states. The probability is that he can only hang on now to Col Tado, with a fighting chance for Nevada. The green fields of the Willam ette valley are rapidly becoming golden, but they are not burning up, as are those in eastern Ore gon. Just good weather for ripe ning the crops. A farmer living near Lodi, California, skipped out last week with the wives of two of his neighbors, leaving his own wife and eight children without a pro- - tector. That must have been a triple case of brain-storm. The big fleet of U. S. battle ships is now swinging at anchor in the harbor of Honolulu, hav ing arrived there Thursday, and the natives are spreading them selves in a successful effort to give their visitors a reception worthy of the occasion. TheHjppner Times complains that the reports of the damage resulting from the freshet in that locality last week were greatly exaggerated, and says the total loss in the city will not exceed $500, while the copious rainfall in the adjacent territory did more good than harm. Using the phonogranh as an aid in running a national campaign, is a new wrinkle, and it will he a feature this year. An eastern phonograph firm has secured rec ords of several of Bryan's efforts and is endeavoring to persuade President Roosevelt to contribute to its collection. However, it is said that Teddy is not in favor of the scheme. At a conference of democratic leaders from all parts of the country with W. J. Bryan, it was decided to leave Roosevelt alone in the coming campaign. There is an old saying to the effect that Discretion is the better part of valor." But, how about that anti-Roosevelt plank in the Dem ocratic platform? Twelve hours after a Chicago minister prayed for the destruc tion by fire of a liquor resort, the building was set on fire and burned to the ground. Now the police are hot on the trail of the prayer-answering individual who applied the torch, and the minis ter will be lucky if he escapes arrest for instigating the crime. The markets reflect the jdea that a nominee who has lost twice will be apt to get'' even a harder jolt the third time. A distinguished medical man holds that the real secret of per fect healch is to be found in walking on the hands and knees. He says that this is how we were intended to walk, and that the erect attitude of man is a mis taken and comparatively modern innovation. According to his view, a good steady walk of four miles in and four miles out on hands and knees every day would bring every muscle of the body into full play.

The remains of the late Jack Young, who died in Seattle last Tuesday, arrived in Corvallis Sunday morninsr on the 8 -SO train. They were taken to Bo vee's undertaking parlors' where brief funeral services were con ducted at one o'clock, Sunday afternoon, by Rev. W. W. Davis of the Baptist church, and were then conveyed to Mountain View cemetery for interment.

Mr. Young married again and came to Corvallis to reside, as suming the management of the Occidental hotel of which he was proprietor for a number of years. He was divorced from his second wife and left Corvallis, going to Seattle, where he entered t.ViA real estate business and became quite wealthy. JIe married a widow ot that citv. who. with two stepchildren and his broth er, survives. Death came as the result of a cancerous growth from which he had suffered for almost two years. Mr. Young was aged about 73 years and was widely known among the early pioneers of this locality. The remains were awnmiwni. ed to this city by the widow, his stepchildren .and his brother, who have the sincere sympathy of the community in their loss. - Last Thursday a chaffeur was arrested at InrlenenrlannA frr . t x tu ue iuuiiu ui me ear. driving an automobile without a The smallest of these is known by license.

S. Land Office at x-oruanu, uregon, on the 24th day ol THE FAVORITE ROOM. Mysterious Popularity Attaches to This Alluring Nook. Most houses of the slightest preten sion have a favorite room. Popularity is its distinguishing feature. It need neither be the smartest nor the largest nor the best furnished, but is possess ed of attractions that are entirely inde pendent of the painter or upholsterer. The builder may have had a say ia it. nowever, and the architect. It is much easier to describe the "fa vorite" room negatively than positive ly, but the whole genus have one marked peculiarity thev erow into ivhat they nre of themselves. Xo cue was ever so clever as to make a fa vorite room by trying to do so. The thing Is impossible. Favorite rooms become what they are of their own ac cord. Very often they begin quite hum blythat is, they rise in life like sol diers from the ranks. In novels the "favorite" room has nearly always tne same origin. It was once the nursery and ends by being an apart ment sacred to taffy making by the heroine and her brothers and sisters. but in real life superannuated nnrspr. ies are generally refurnished and turn ed into smart boudoirs or extra bed rooms for the growing up family. One thing, the favorite room is never bv any chance a gloomy room. Indeed, it is altogether alluring. Bali frocks for the youns ladies were "run up" in it and always came out suc cessful, students for the stiffest ex aminations "read up" In it and never failed to pass. In short, the room was as comfortable as It could be, and good luck appeared to cling to any of those who took it into their heads to use ft. NEEDLEWORK NOTES. A deep 'ruffle added to the lower edge or ine gingham aprons used in the kitchen is a great protection, so many grease spots seem to get on the bit of the dress skirt showing below the ordi nary apron. Tbf ruffled aprons are. be coming and picturesque. For summer porch cushions get a good grade of Bulgarian linen and work them with the Wailachian stitch. The patterns need not necessarily be large, elaborate or highly decorative. A neat monogram In one, flowers in a second and a conventional design In the third would make three good pat terns, use white mercerized cotton for the work. A girl who paints china will find that a breakfast tray set is a much appre ciated present The set consists of a tray, a teapot, sugar bowl, cream Ditch er, hot water jug, cup and saucer. It should be painted to match the cre tonne in the room for which it is in tended. One objection to the porcelain tray Is its weight. In that case a wooden tray may be substituted, or n tray of Japanese lacquer may be used. W hen sewing the two raw edsres of fine lace together, like the tiny lace ruffle on lingerie blouses or riressos. ln not fell it in the old fashioned way. but place the two right sides together and bind the edsre with tlip- firms.! thread, making a buttonhole stitch along the edge. Tut a stitch in each mesh, and you will have a neat Ince seam which when pressed can scarcely be observed, and it will not fray. NOTICE FOR PUBLICATION.

The other day, however, the first late man gave as his reason "wife had twins," and twenty other late members s:.gned "ditto" underneath. J. E.
