Women and Their
Ways Mystify the

have him or not many considerations
may affect her choice and make her
wish she had not suffered the affair to
go SO far. Men do not and never will
know women. Women do not know
themselves. The sex is full of contra
dictions. When a women is fondest of
a man she most delights to tease or
torture him. When she dislikes his
very presence she is often most gra-
cious. Women are often called dreams
and, like dreams, they go by con-
traries. Few men ever get really &C
quainted with a woman until they
lave married her and lived with her
awhile. She will hold her true self in
the background and recede as he ad-
vances. That is why many girls who
are popular with men are disliked by
women. who know them better, and
why the favorite of all the ONE is
sometimes neglected by the men and
permitted to become an old maid.
That. too, is why many men, soon
after marriage. discover that they
have made a %grievous mistake. A man
ought o marry a girl in a hurry. nor
should he marry one whom he does
not know very well. A man ought to
consider how his inamorata will look
ten years after the wedding. He
should compare her with her mother
and should ask himself: Were she
to become fat, shapeless and middle
aged would l love her still?"
Beauty does not last except in rare
cases and the man that marries should
bear in mind that his bride will not
always be pretty and graceful. Let
him look at the wives of his friends
and then marry-if he dares. II the
sentiment that inspires him is the zeal
thing, II he is ready to taxi the bitter
with the sweet. let him marry. by all
means, and be happy forever after

sudden origin and transient nature let
him beware.-Chicago Chronicle.

The American Hen.

The American hen is a great
institution. At a rough estimate
there are about $50, ooo,oo of
her i'll the United States and
each year they produce some
thing tike $4,000, ooc, 900 eggs,
which represent $175, 900, 900.
About $I3o, 900, 900 worth of
poultry is eaten in the country
during the year and the value of
the living hens, at 80 cents
apiece, is figured at $50 900, :
900. So the hen stands for
about $455, 900, 900 in the econ
emics of the United States. The
hen out-does the iron industry,
the coal industry, the wheat
and the corn crop, incidentally
soaring more than ST, 900, 900
ahead of the yearly value of the
COWS ofthe country and their pro-

Stabbed in the Back.

Charles Kennedy, formerly
conductor Of the old Oregon Pa
cihc passenger, and we'll known
in this city, was recently stabbed
seven times. Mention was made
of the affair in former issue of
the GAZETTE. A recent Tele-
gram contains The following,
which throws some light over
this mysterious affair:
1t is the theory Of The police
that Conductor Charles Kennedy,
who was stabbed in the back
Friday night, was wounded by his
7-year-old son, who is supposed
TO have used a pocket-knife. In
the absence Of any statement by
either Kennedy or his wife and
their refusal to discuss the occur
renee, the opinion of the officers
is given.
Mrs. Kennedy, say the police
in announcing their theory,
Joined lodge to which her hus-
band objected. This led to a
quarrel, and tile conductor, being
under the influence of liquor, at
tempted to demonstrate, physi-
cally. The young. boy, seeing
his parents fighting stabbed his
father in the back under the i'm
preston that he was assisting his
mother. The boy had been
given a penknife few days ago,
and the size of the blade is said
to correspond with the depth Of
the wounds in his fathers back.
The boy was heard to cry Friday
evening about the time of the
stabblng: "Yeu leave my
mamma alene!'
Kennedy is still at the hospital,
and will recover.

The law authorizing the free
ferry at Corvallis, found on page
2 of the session laws of 1893, is
specific in its terms, and author
ICES the county court of Benton
county to establish and maintain
a free ferry across the Willamette
river at Corvallis. By the pre-
sumptions of law arising from
this act it is presumed that there
was a necessity for the ferry at
that place from the fact of the
the legislature having passed the
law on that subject and definitely
fixed the exact location at that
place. Under such law 1t was
the duty of the court to proceed
and establish the ferry, without
waiting for the citizens of the
county to petition in a body for
ii to be done. While we feel
that our worthy senior commits.
sioner wishes to carry out the
duties of his office, yet we believe
he has made a grave mistake in
labcring so long and earnestly to
gather SO many doubtful reasons
Corvallis gazette. [volume] (Corvallis, Benton County, Or.) 1900-1909, 1901-05-24

to justify his desire to avoid act
ing under this law, which it was
his duty to join in carrying out.
We feel confident, however, that
after our worthy friend has wit
messed the effects of the free ferry
for time and realized that his
office is only that cf a commits
sioner, and it is not within the
duties of his Office to decide
whether the law is good or bad,
he will finally come to the con-
clusion that his objections are not
we'll taken.
