' If reports be tnio, President Mai arkay, of Mih sennto 1b not the only meiubor aspiring to national honors. While lie hopes to become United States senator two years hence, it is whispered around that Senator Dim ick of Clackamas hopes to bo republl oondldate for congress in opposition to Senator Hawloy, who now repre sents this district Dinilck has fathered a lot of legisla tion of the popular sort, this session, and arems to be real sincere Jn it. said :y these who are close to the laboring element that Dlrnick would draw a big vote from thlB class of citizenship. Dlmlck Is serving his Booond term as a member of the uppor house and Ills record Is good, Obviously, he is not tied to any lino-up or organization Possibly more than any other mem ber, the Oregn City man, is the free lunca of the body. The long sosslon Is tolling on Sen ator Von dor Hellon. The solon from Jackson took a quiet snooze during the course of one of tho nioHt heated dobatoa yosterday afternoon, but made It a point to wako tin In time to vote when his name was callod. Senator Butler Is the most deceiv ing member of the senate. Ho uses two cluilrs at all times, his feet on one and his head and back on the othor. The senator's chief diversion botwoen siKsoches is chowlng "Navy Twist." Ho amuses himself by sleep ily watching the people In the lobby and nover seems to bo paying much attention to anything that Is going on In the senate. But that's where the observer Is wrong. Without any fuss, but when It Is least expected, the sen ator rises leisurely to his feet and makes a lively speech on any old ! luestlon. : i ' if J I Group pictures of the solons at the' state house are now the popular thing. .

Senator Butler of Hood Illver and Wasco has been honored by being chosen to address the celebration of tho Ancient Order of Hibernians, In Portland on tho evening of St. Pat rick's day. Senator Butler has for somo yearn held an enviable reputa tion as an orator and has Justified that reputation as a member of the state senate on more than one occa sion.

Madison, the local saloon man, alleg ing that Madison is responsible for the alienation of IiIb wife's affections. Tho defendnnt and the wife of Umge are charged with having consorted to gether In rooms and drinking places. Lange asserts In IiIb complaint that the Iobs of his wife's society, her com panionship, services, affection and as sistance, and his own resultant mental anguish, disgrace and humiliation warrant the payment of damages ho has asked.

TTi Story That It Told of the Witty Cleric Sydney Smith, and the Wager He Won While In the Pulpit A Buried Pun by Nathaniel Hawthorne. Horace E. Scudder In some reminis cences of James Uussell Lowell point ed out that the poet critic even lu his soberest eBsnys would sometimes bide away a Jest for tbe delectation of spe cially discerning readers. Thus In a review of Richard Grant White's edi tion of fbakespeare, Lowell remarked Incidentally: "To every commentator who ' has wantonly tampered with the text or obscured It with bis Inky cloud of para phrase we feel Inclined to apply the quadrisyllable name of the brother of AglB, king of Sparta." Professor Fclton of Harvard, we are told, whs the first to remember or dis cover that the name of Agls' brothor was Kudnmldns. A more opnquo mystification Is con tained in a passage in the first chapter of Nathunlel Hawthorne's "Our Old Home" opaque only because he pur posely Beelis to conceal every clew to the fact that a pun Is burled beneath tho surface. The chapter Is headed "Consular Ex periences.'' Speaking of the lights and shadows of the consul's ofllce at Liver pool, whero he was stationed during the presidency of Franklin Pierce, Hawthorne dwells with special pleas ure on the visits of a young English friend, "a scholar and literary amateur, between whom and myself there sprang up an affectionate and, I trust, not transitory regard." This friend used to come and sit or stand by tho Huwthorno fireside, "with such kind endurance of the many rough republicanisms wherewith I ub sullcd him and such frank and amiable assertion of all sorts of English preju dices and mistakes, that I understood his countrymen infinitely the better for hi in and was almost prepared to love the Intensest Englishman of them all for his sake. It would gratify my cher ished remembrance of this dear friend if I could remind blin without offend ing him, or letting the public know it, to introduce his nnmo upon my page. Bright was tho illumination of my dusky little apartment as often as be mode his nppcarnnce there." Tho casual render never suspectit that Hawthorne has deftly accomplish ed his purpose. It does not occur to him tluit Hrlght, the apparent ndjoctlve that so cunningly begins a sentence and therefore achieves the right to a capital Initial, may bo alternatively read ns a proper noun. Henry A. Ilrlght was. In fact, Haw thorne's only Intimate friend In Liver pool. IIo wns a man of wealth and po sition In that town, a dilettante who hail published for his own nmusement n botnnlonl manual, "Tho English Flower ;nnlen." With Hawthorne ho would frequently call upon the local bookseller, Henry Young, making use of a little nook In (lie rear of the shop to examine and discuss the recent pub lications. Tills en mo to bo known as Hawthorne's comer. There Is a story told about Sydney Smith that represents blin ns carrying n concealed pun Into the pulpit with him. The most familiar version Is that which Lord Houghton used to tell. When settled lit Ills small living In Yorkshire, Sydney willingly assisted his brethren In that neighborhood In their clerical duties. On one occasion he dined with tho incumbent on the preceding Saturday. Tho evening passed In great hilarity, tho squire. Kershaw by name, being conspicuous by his loud enjoyment of the visitor's Jokes. "I nm very glad that I have amused you." said Sydney Smith at parting, "but you must not laugh at my sermon tomorrow." "I should hope I know the difference between here and a church," remarked the squire a little tartly perhaps. "I'm not so sure of that." "I'll bet you n guinea on it" Take you." said the divine. Next day the preacher ascended the item of the pulpit apparently suffering from a severe cold, with his handker chief to bis face, and at onco sneezed out the name "Kershaw!" several times In various Intonations. This Ingenious assumption of the rendlncs with which n man would rccognlz his own nam In sounds unintelligible to the ears of others proved accrrntc. The poor Kipilre hurst Into gufTnw. to the scan dal of the congregation. The minister after looking at lili.i with stern re proach proceeded with his discourse mid won the bet. Another version makes the victim of Sydney's Jest a rertiiln Sir Archi bald Macdonald. equerry to the Imke of Sussex. Sir Archibald wild to the prelate, who was then ft canon nt St. Paul's eatliedrnl: "I will com some Sunday to hear you preach." "If you do I shall nun you from the pcilptf." was the reply. 1 ndniinted by t'il" threat, Sir Archi bald went to St, I 'Hill's. Sydney ent'Tcd the pulpit, looked hard at the baronet and was seized with n wonderful tit of sneezing. "Ar-chle. Ar-cMn, Archie!" wns how It sounded In Sir Archibald's cars, and he rotild not hMp n sudden laugh of recognition. William 8. YVnlvh io Hot too Toat. ( MONSTER HEADDRESSES: I Women at One Time Wore Fleets of Veseele In Their Hair. Marie Antoinette had a pnsslon for extraordinary headdresses. One struc ture that she invented was forty-five Indies in height and was composed of many yards of gauze and ribbon. From the folds sprang bunches of roses, and the entire edifice was surmounted by a waving plunio of whlto feathers. It Is recorded that when Mnrhi Theresa re ceived a portrait of her daughter wear lug this headdress she exclaimed: "This Is no daughter of mine! It is tho portrait of on actress!" Tho Duchess do Chnrtrcs, determined to surpass the queen, designed a head dress two inches higher. It was mado up of many plumes waving at the top of a tower. Two waxen figures, repre senting the little Comte de Boaujolals (the brother of Louis Philippe) In his nurse's arms, were worn aa ornaments. Beside them a parrot picked at a plate of cherries, and tbe wax figure of a black boy reclined at tho nurse; feet On different parts of the tower were the Initials of the duchesse's husband, ber father and her futber-ln-law, made from her own hair. At this time France and England were at war. Iu a naval engagement the French frigate Llcorne struck her flag, but the Belle I'oule, another French vessel, crippled tbe Hector, nu English man-of-war. As the French men were about to board two EugllBh vessels bore down to their consort's assistance, and the Belle I'oule sailed away. Tho English fleet returned to Plymouth with two prizes, tho Llcome ! and u French lugger. Tho French, although they had lost a frigate, proclaimed a victory. The queen nnd her women wore headdress es that represented the Belle I'oulo un der full sail plowing n sea of greon gauze in pursuit of the English frlgato. This construction wag knowii as the "coiffure Belle I'oule." The wife of an English officer living In Paris deemed the headdress an In sult to the English navy and deter mined to resent it. At tho next public occasion therefore she nppcured carry ing on her head flvo English line of battle ships, a French frigate and a lugger. Aii arrangement of silk and gauze represented Plymouth harbor, which the English ships, with their prizes, were entering. Each vessol car ried a streamer that boro Its name, and on the edifice at tho back the word "Plymouth" appeured In glittering beads. The audacity of tho spirited English woman struck every one dumb except ,.1.1.. ..t ....II.... ....,. I....K...1 ,.. I cross the frontier at her earliest con venience. Youth's Companion. MEANING OF "P0TLUCK." On Plunge of the Ladle, and Take What You Get. Tho real origin of the word "pot- luck" is unknown to most of the peo ple who use It. In Limoges, Fiance, however, one runs Into politick Itself. In a certain corner of that quaint city I of Jostling roofs there Is still scgrcgat- ed, in licit as If In n ghetto, n Saracen population, probably it remnant of the wave of Saracens that swept over Eu rope hundreds of years ago. Mere Ihey live In their crooked, narrow streets, following old customs handed down from general Ion to gcneralloti. There are ninny butcher shops In the quarter, anil outside of cic h nIciiiiim ii great pot of soup over a glowing brazier. In I each pot stands a ladie as ancient us I the pot. When a customer comes with a penny, In goes the ladle and comes up full of ' savory broth and chunks of meat, odds nnd ends that the butcher has had left lover. And what comes up the cub i tomer has lo take. Otto can Imagine how anxiously tho hungry urchin or the mother of seven must eyo the In exorahlo ladle ami how a pretty girl might get nnotlier draw from the butcher's boy. At any rate, "to tnko politick" means to take what you get ami say nothing, whether the pot Is In Limoges or in the fiat of the man who eagerly Invites a friend of his youth to dinner. New York Sun. Gives Warning of a Storm. In tho bay of Biscay frequently dur ing the autumn nnd winter In calm weather a heavy sea gets up and rolls In on the coast four and twenty hours before the gale which causes It arrives and of which It Is the prelude. In this case the wave action, generated on the other side of the Atlantic by the wind, travels at a much greater rate than that of tho body of disturbed sir and thus gives warning of the coming storm. 8 Unreaeonable.

WHATIS SOLUBLE? Everything In the Universe Is, Say the Scientists. GLASS DISSOLVES IN WATER. And if a Bar of Gold Be Placed Upon a Bar of Lead Each In Tim Will Ab sorb Particlea of the Other Solid Matter a Masa of Whirling Atoma. What is soluble? Sugar In water? That's easy, although you have to be born in Kentucky to perform tho trick In the mint Julep trade. Is glass soluble In water? Offhand we say no. We are wrong. It Is. You can try it yourself. Take an ordinary eight ounce water glass, a glass that holds eight ounces, grind It up to a powder and pour th powder into another glass full of water and stir It up. Then analyze It, or, If this is above you, take It around tbe corner to a man who can, and he will tell you, aad with truth, that the wa ter In that glass had actually dissolved 3 per cent of the glass powdor. Glass is solublo, nearly as soluble as blehlorldo of mercury. Everything Is soluble In water. Furthermore, everything in tho uni verse is Boluble in everything else In tho universe. That Is what they are telling us now, and tho men who tell us can perform an astonishing experi ment right before your eyes to make you more than half believe them. They tako a bar of gold and a bar of lend. They lay ono bar on top of the other. Then they sit around nnd smoke cigars and wait, say n year. Then they take tho two bars and analyze them chemically. In the gold bar they find lend. Iu the lead bar they find gold. Gold and lend tiro soluble In each other. If you haven't tlmo to wait a year to find out, the trick can be performed In much shorter tlmo. All that has to be done Is to raise tho temperature of the two bars to u very ordinary heat say :il) or 400 degrees F. With this ndded heat tho sumo results nro reached ovor night Traces of gold nro found all tho way through tho lead bar and vice versa. The theory Is that all substances, whether gold or butter or leather, nro really eoniposeil of tho smallest kind of small particles iiliout (ho size of tho particles making up the tall of tho Into lamented comet, which were described as tho elemental essence of nothing ness. These particles, which are as much bigger than an atom as a mniin Inln compared to n mouse, tire In mo tion, revolving round each other faster than thought, much tho sumo as tho planets revolve round tho sun. if our microscopes were big enough a chunk of gold would appear to our eyes much the sumo us a My hopper full of files (the kind of hoppers they keep In the cheese depart ment of a country grocery sloro In August). Tho liarlicles are buzzing and Jumping much the siiuie lis these tiles. When a bar of gold comes In contact with n luir of lend their respective re volving buzzing pnrllclcH get Migether anil get jicqmiliilcd, They go explor ing and lire lost., and before long, In stead of having n bar of pure lead and a bar of pure gold wn have two bars of alloyed iiielals. This discovery lias upset all sorts of si lcutlllc ciikiilntlons. If everything Is j soluble In everything else- and Helen- lists can go on duplicating tho gold lead example without end - how can anything exist In a pure stale' It can't. I'licinlsls dispense chemicals under the label '',. P." or "chemically pure," but If a Ir. Wiley got after them on Hie strict letter of the new theory ho would send tliein all to jail, because the chances are that all alleged pure chem icals have absorbed A little of every thing tin'. nunc In contact with in the process of their fiiiitiufueturo. Analytical chemists of tills day luive 10 take Inlo account the amount of glass any given solution contains, when Ihey nro testing that solution in test a fills1. Otherwise their resultH wouldn't count for anything. This discovery suggests an explana tion of that mysterious element In out door life, scent. Mow ran n hound trace his quarry? Everything a mini touches dissolves a little of lilm. When his foot falls on the ground he leaves a trace of himself. In warm weather or In wet weather he leaves a bigger trace than In cold or dry weather. A hound follows a damp trail. I'sunlly his sense of smell Is not acute enough to follow a dry trail.
