When you think you've trouble hit, Laugh a little bit. Look misfortune In the face, llrave the bedlam's rude grimace; Ten to one 'twill yield Its place If you have the wit and grit Just to laugh a little bit. - Cherish this as sacred writ, ' Laugh a little bit. Keep It with you sample It, Laugh a little bit. Little Ills will miro betldo you Fortune may not sit beside you, Men may knock and fame deride you, But you'll mind them not a whit, If you laugh a little bit. Exchange. . A German sciontist is the originator of an idea to chart the oceans with the view of warning vessels in what particular por tion of their voyage they may expect storms and calms. This would be comparatively easy if each and every ocean-going craft was provided with a wireless telegraph equipment, which would enable each vessel to flash the news to others of the weather conditions existing along the route of travel. This enthusiast says that with the ocean properly charted warning might be giv en thirty-six hours ahead of approaching storms and thus great loss of life and property would be prevented. The idea is a good one and no doubt it is but a question of a few years when the German's dream will come true. The Daily Guard was the only newspaper in Eugene that re ceived direct bulletins of the election returns, the only other ser vice of the kind in the city being received by the Republican county committee. The Guard was also the only paper that dis played its own returns for the benefit of the public. Further than this, The Guard furnished to every Lane county subscriber ear ly in the morning an extra edition giving the most complete re turns of any paper issued up to that time. That the people ap preciate a newspaper like The Guard is evidenced by the fact that thirty new daily subscriptions were received at the business office counter between November first and fourth. It is now up to the editorial writers to handle other topics than politics. They may devote a few issues of their papers to telling how the thing was done, then they will have to resort to other themes. It will be rather difficult, this radical change of subject, but it is a condition and not a theory which confronts each and every one of us and we will be compelled to make the best of it. 1 Almost a panic was created in tho London dog market by the appearance of some women of ihe socioty set in public with their husbands, and without their dogs, and the circulataion of a re port that it was no longer the "pwopah capah" to have dogs for pets. Is it any wonder that London's unemployed grow threatening? Americans are regarded as "easy" all over the world. A steerage passenger calling himsolf Prinoe Immanuel, of Jerusa lem, is now in this country, seeking money to build a universal university on the site of Solomon's temple, and it is by no means certain that he won't get it. Nervy bunch, that faoulty of the Chicago University.

The great white light that constantly glares around and upon the head of the winner never gives the loser sore eyes. Nothing succeeds like success. Therefore Chairman Hitch cock's card infex scheme is likely to become popular with cam paign managers in the future. The Southern Pacific demonstration train will be in Eugene on the 1 Oth, and the farmers should take a day off and come to town. Just to get away from city bustle and paved streets for awhile one hundred Eugene boosters will visit Albany next Tuesday. Boston is 750 marriage licenses behind last year's record. Wonder if the price of beans had anything to do with it? "The country will be glad of a rest," remarks an exchange. Not on your life it wants to get busy. Bryan may have been a bad Bill, as some Republicans al leged, but he has passed just the same. Now is the proper time for the newspapers to resurrect that Balkan war scare. It seems impossible for the people of Minnesota to get "too much Johnson." "Sunny Jim" Sherman is entitled to his smile.

EUGENE HIGH SCHOOL TEAM IS CRIPPLED Prospects of Winning From Salem Are Not Bright Several Men Out of the Game THIS IS MY I53RD RIRTITDAY." EiiKfno V. Dehlw. Eugene Victor Debs, who in the re cent election was the candidate of the Socialist pnrty for President of the United Stntes. was born In Torre Haute, Ind., November 5. 1S55. He received a common school educntion and lnv187l went to work as a loco motive fireman. In 1879 Tie was elected city clork of Terre Haute. About the same time he became trensnrer of the Brotherhood of Lo comotive Firemen, of which organl- j zatlon he continued to be one of the! leaders for many years. In 1805 he wns elected to-the Indiana leglsla-: ture and served ono term. In 1893 ho organized and became president of the American Hallway Union, which organization conducted the grent Pullman strike, as a result of which Mr. Debs became Involved with the Federal authorities and with several of his associates was sen tenced to Jail for contempt of court. In 1S97 he became chairman of the National Council of the Social Dem ocracy and In 1900 he was the can didate of that party for President of the United Stntes. The Socialist party It seems as If the prospects of the Eugene high schools's capturing the League pennant from Salem Satur day have fallen suddenly from the best to a degree much less satisfac tory to the local supporters. A ragged practice was held last evenings with a crippled back field and a dispirited line. Captain Knox is not expected to be In the big game, on account of a fractured rib; Krleg er is out with a "Charley-horse", Gray's knee is In bad shape and Bailey will perhaps be kept out of the game at least till the last -half, on account of his knee, which was Injured In the Astoria game. Ander son Has not been out this week on ac count of sickness, but he will prob ably be in the game despite his phys ical condition. However the high school lads are out to win, even if the whole second team goes In. Coach Hug depends upon the fighting ability of the old men to hold the Salem team down. The rooters, too, have determined, If possible, to make up the team's loss by extra efforts to encourage the team. The excursion list Is fast growing larger. DRY WOOD.

Maybe so, but anyway Jonathan doosn't seem to have the winner's markers. If this Philadelphia lady doctor, who delivered an address , before the Women's Club in favor of allowing the men to smoke around the house, doesn't build up a big family practice the mar ried men of that town are an unapprqeiative lot.
