You may play your concertinas and
your fiddles and your flutes, with your
trumpets or your bugles you may fill
the air with toots; you may organize
a chorus of a thousand voice: sweet,
you may charter Mary Gardner (and
folks say she can't be heat); you may
play the loud piano till your neigh
bors stand aloof, but there is no
music sweeter than the rain upon the
mii: When the earth has scorched
aim! shriveled in a dreary, drastic
'drought, when the grass and leaves
have withered in siroccos from the
satitli, when the sun for weeks to
gether has been sizzling in its grease,
;in4 for weary, roasted mortals there
was neither rest nor peace, when the
countryside is blistered, and all blis
tered is the town, then there is no
music sweeter than the rain a-comiug
down! I can hear splash and patter
on the shingles o'er my head, bringing
hope to all things living, bringing
life to some things dead; like a saint
beiicdiction it is coming in the
night, and the world will wake to
morrow in a glow of new delight;
though the stars may sing together
as they sang o'er Juda's plain, they
can give no sweeter music than the
falling of the rain. Walt Mason.
There is something wrong. The

JUST A MAN
It is a great distinction and a great
honor to be a President of the United
States; but it is still greater to be a
real man. Wmulrow WiUon is both.
A few days ago ,mi automobile in
which (he Pi -evident was riding ran
down a bicycle injuring a messenger
boy who was riding the wheel. The
wheel was demolished ami the boy
considerably brui ed. sent to the hos
pital. Since the lad has been confined
to a cot in the hovpit.it the President
has visited his bedside and chatted
with him at he would have done with
some intimate friend.
Now. someone may say there is
nothing remat kable about this, and
there isn't. It was nothing more, than
the President of the United States
ought to have done. We all have
been touched by the pretty stories of
kings, ipteeus ami other dignitaries
who are looked upon as some tiling
extraordinary, doing the same thing,
sometimes even leaving a purve for
the man, woman or child hurt by then
carriage or automobile. Thce acci
dents have often been woven into
beautiful stories, and after reading
them we may have looked upon the
king, queen or good prince as a oi t
of Divinity to be worshipped.
when the Piesideut's automobile hits
a messenger boy on a bicycle we ex
pect the President to apoligie and do
the right thing by the injured party
"just the same as if the President were
a real estate dealer or an insurance
a:;ent. And when the President
make a trip to the hospital and b'v.s
down and cliats with the injured one,
nobofly lias a fit over it or ues the in
cident for a foundation of a novel. Wc
all look upon our Presidents as public
servants, and do not expect any snob
bery or unusual "highness" about
them. So, in this matter President
Wilson did only what he would have
done before be became the first man
of the Nation did what any man big
enough to be President would have
done. The doing of little, simple
things shows greatness in men as
much as the accomplishment of great
things, especially when done as a
plain duty free from show and osten
tation. Oregon Messenger.
Oregon has the best agricultural
college on the Pacific coast. It
should have the bet state univer

great institution of learning at Eugene
without giving the board of regents
proper financial support. It is poor
economy to deny the university funds
which arc necessary to its proper de
velopment. Unless all signs fail, President Hu
crta of Mexico will fold his tent like
he Arabs and silently steal away.
A few years ago the fashionably

Wilkins asserts that he struck Win
ters on the head with an umbrella

of the police is that Winters was
struck with -a heavy instrument from

his wife and it is said, claims Winters
responsible for the estrangement.

ALBANY WOULD
STAGE i GAME
Commercial Club Willing to
Pay All Expeiices for 5 Per
Cent of Gate Receipts.
PROPOSITION IS TO BE
SUBMITTED IMMEDIATLY
Merchants Will Say When Ex
cursion Trains Are to Arrive
and Depart.
Whether the big football game be
tween the U. of O. and O. A. C. will
be played here on November 8, is to
be decided by tomorrow or next day.
Here for the purpose o'f sizing up
the situation, Graduate Manager Dean
Walker, of Oregon and Dr. E. J. Stew
art, director of athletics at the col
lege, yesterday afternoon surveyed
the grounds and met informally with
Billy Eagles, who successfully ar
ranged the details for staging the
game here last year, to discuss the
proposition. The result was that the
football men want Albany to place
the football field in first class order,
construct and guarantee bleachers for
a seating capacity of 8000, exclusive
of cost to either school, but they will
grant to the business men of the city
the right to say what time the ex
cursion trains should arrive and de
part from the city. Thirdly it is prob
able that the city will be called upon
to stand the expense of about $300 for
renting the field, aside from placing it
in the desired order.
The matter taken up at the meet
ing of the Commercial club last night,
resulted in the appointment of a com
mittee to present the proposition of
the city. It is for five per cent of
the gate receipts, and an agreement
to make up the balance of the expense,
through soliciting funds from the
business men. This proposition is to
be made to the football managers
without delay.
In the event the proposition is not
accepted, the probabilities are that
an effort will be made to stage the
game in Portland. Manager Walker
is strong for Eugene and Dr. Stewart
wants the game played in the Rose
City, There is a question, it is said,
whether the game will be played at
all unless at Albany.
The committee in charge of the
matter here is William Eagles, chair
man, Dr. H. J. Kavanaugh and C. H.
Stewart.
It is the plan of this committee to
proceed at once to ascertain the atti
tude of the business men towards
donating funds for the carrying out of
the proposition as outlined.
