A prompt man is a blessing in busi ness. There Is many a Blip in a foot bail game. There is good sense in the head of a woman whose dress lacks three inches of touching the ground.

In tho game of foot ba) at Eucene last Saturday afternoon be t 1 tbe U. of O eleven and the Salem Athletic team Salem won 5 to 0, making a touch down in the second half,but7aU ing to kick a goal. The field was very muddy and Salem had tbe advantage of about ten pounds to the man, and to this fact Eugene ascribes tbe defeat, declar ing that on a dry field Bhe would have won. This was the general sentiment. The truth is, though, that tbe Salem team is a superior one, the material be ing first-class, the team being made up of veterans. They are a fine lot of chrys anthemums and the team that beats them will have to rustle. A bulletin of the CenBus Office etates that among most notable changes in the rank of cities which have taken place in 1900, as compared with 1880, may be mentioned Portland, which Iibb advanced from 105th place to 42nd plare: Seattle from 150th to 48th place ; .Tacoma from 155th to 103rd place and Spokane fiom 157th to 105th place, and yet some cf these cm ties are kicking because they naven't more.

TUESDAY. Case Was Settled. From the Statesman : "Uncle Billy" Miller, who was happi ly married about two months ago to a blushing bride of GO years of age, twenty- six years younger than himself, la in trouble. It appears that Mrs. Miller determined to go on a visit to her old home at Klamath, but her husband ob jected to her going away, and he suppos ed she bad given up the idea. While he wastawing wood yederdpy morning she came to the wood house and told him she was pre pari u g bis dinner and w uld can mm presently. When Mr. Muler went into the houBe about 11 o'clock he fornd his wife had departed and likewise bis money and a lame nunber or other articles belonging to the family. The lady had taken the II o'clock train and waB speeding on her way to the Bouth, when Uncle Billy proceeded to tbe jus tice court and swot e out a warrant charg ing his better half wiib the larceny of $140, which she had evidently taken along as pin money to spend on the trip. The lady wns stopped by officers at Al bany and later the district attorney, up on lookiug cloBar into the case, found that the charge would have to be dts misseu, lor legal reasons, and the case was, therefore, withdrawn; Later the dav the matter was amicablv ''fixed up" by telephone, and Mr, Millar went to Albany last evening to join bis tun away spouse. Mr, Miller was In Albany today and he informs the Demochat that the matter was aU a mistake. That the watch was found afterwards and everything has been nettled satisfactorily . a tact we are glad to chronicle. J. M. Fhilpot, ot Harrisburg, was do iog buMnete io the city today. W.P.

Defeat of one team by another by superior playing is always expected and considered as such. But the game between U of O. and Salem did not show this condition to ex iet. Through the entire first half of the game U. O, had the ball in Salem ter ritory, and twice almoRt near enough to the goal line to count, while the heavy line of tbe Salem team was stopped time after time lor downs and a loss of yard age. In the second half the ball re mained in ihe center nf the field umil but iivo minuleB of play remained, when by aci'identil loBsoa of U.
