nary mortals. He Is the plaything of his own imagination when he expects to evoke specter or shadow. In reality he draws the image from his own brain and materializes 1t externally with suff1- cient plainness to see it himself and sometimes TO cause it to be seen by others.
 This explanation Is not without merit. As spiritualistic ghosts and specters are mere creatures of the imagination of the mediums Casually people of inferior in- felligence and education), 1t is only nat ural that when these apparitions open their mouths they utter the merest drivel in the shakiest English--or French, for that matter. s4- -st-i ttf
 It must be confessed that Dr. Baraduc, intoxicated by his discovery, has allowed his imagination to run off into delirium. He has obtained s photographs, or psychicones, as he calls them, of men and women under the influence of vari- ous emotions-joy, grief, anger, etc. and he has catalogued and co-ordinated there various plates as if they repre- sented the microbes of all human pas sions. From them he has evolved an en- tire system of mystic and moral philoso- phy, which will soon be made known to the world in a large. volume entitled "The Human Soul" .r-f

The driver of a heavy depot wagon, passing along a Germantown thorough fare descried short distance before his turnout what seemed to be the red rear lights of couple of bicycles. He deter mined to have some fun" Whipping his horse into a gallop he bore down upon the lights, merrily chuckling to himself, See me scatter 'em!" An instant later something did scatter, and the driver found himself extended upon the bottom of an exceedingly moist ditch, his car riage lying on it's side and his horse tear ing the harness to pieces in frantic ef- forts to get away. The supposed bicycle lamps turned out to be red lanterns guarding a ditch freshly dug to receive water pipes. The wind had imparted sufficient motion to help the Illusion Philadelphia Record.

Makes Good Coffee, Is Tidy, and Takes No
 Interest in Politics.. New York Press.
 Isn't there a Mrs. Kruger? Wives of great men all remind us that they some dimes play considerable part in form ing their husbands characters. A man who writes from the Transvaal pictures her as a homekeeper, who has not en- couraged her husband much in his state pursuits.
 "I have seen Tantas Sanna on several occasions and have noticed her one style. She always dresses in black, and the cut of her gown would certainly not be an advertisement to a West End dressmak- CT; comfort, not elegance, is her maxim.
 "Plain though Mrs. Kruger is in the matter of dress, she has her little vanity. She positively refuses to see a visitor who may happen to call before she has 'tidied up.' The tidying up takes place in the afternoon and consists in putting on her best black gown with trimmings. Mrs. Kruger is famous for her coffee, with which visitors are always regaled when they go to the presidential resi- dence In Pretoria. Mrs. Kruger thinks she makes the best coffee of any good huisvrouw in Pretoria, and she boasts that she can make a can of condensed milk go further than any one else.
 Mrs Kruger, while thinking her Mann the greatest statesman the world has ever seen, takes no sort o& interest h

The Prosecuting Attorneyship,

w. E. Yates has received the
nomination for prosecuting at
torney in this district, and bet
ter man could hardly be found
for the position. Mr.. Yates is a
man of excellent moral character
and lawyer of ability, and will
bring to his aid the same strict
economy that has made him a
successful man in business. Lin
coin county will earnestly support
w. E. Yates for prosecuting at
torney.-Yaquina News.
w. E. Yates, the republican
candidate for prosecuting attor-
ney, left for his home in Corval-
lis thit forenoon. He will visit
Eugene again before many days.
He seems to be a pleasant, affable
gentleman, and is said to be a
good lawyer.-Eugene Guard.
Two excellent nominations
were made for district attorney
in two adjoining districts, John
A. Carson, Of Salem, and w. E.
Yates, of Corvallis. Both are
clean, capable attorneys of high
standing i'll their profession and
will make good officers. Albany

GEORGE WAGGONER.

There is every assurance that
George Waggoner's majority will
be one Of the largest ever re-
ceived by a candidate for county
office i'll the present Benton coun-
|ty. There is reason for this.
Mr.. Waggoner is known for his
staunch friendliness to friend.
His friendship has no politics and
no creed. 1t is this quality that
is universally admired, 1t is a
quality that gains him friends,
and friends that are worth having.
Mr.. Waggoner has been a faith
full worker for the party. He is
accused sometimes of being pol
itician, and he is, in the better
sense of the term. He is such a
politician as every citizen ought
to be. He takes a deep, active
interest in public affairs and
works to promote such public
measures as he deems beneficial.
He is a consistent republican and
believes the success of that party
desirable for the nations good.
He has worked for the success of
the republican party as hundreds
of good citizens in the county
have done. His qualities as an
organizer and as a public speak
er have perhaps made him more
prominent than some of the
others, but he is in no sense a
"boss" or politician for revenue.
He is simply a public spirited
citizen and an earnest upholder
of republicanisn.
Mr.. Waggoner is farmer by
occupation. Twelve years ago
he moved to Corvallis to educate
his children, leaving a fine farm
that has since been converted i'll
to splendid prune orchards. Mr..
Waggoner is greatly interested in
the development of the fruit in
dustry i'll Benton county and is a
large stockholder in two of the
best orchards in the state.
Only once before has he come
before the people as candidate
for office. In 1880 he was elect
ed as representative to the state
Legislature and served the people
of the county we'll. Mr.. Wag-
goner will make a good, capable
sheriff and there is no doubt oi
! his election,
