VERDI A TERROR AS DIRECTOR.

Boito received 81 1000 for the llbretto of
Verdi's "Falstaif" and Verdi himself
got $4,000 for the opera, plus 40 per
cent Of the acting rights, and Of The
price Of scores and separate numbers.
At the first performance Of this
opera, the last Verdi wrote, the price
Of parquet seats at Milan went UP to
$50 each. A correspondent who wit
messed the rehearsals wrote:

rehearsals began. and four since Verdi
began TO supervise everything himself.

| Corvallis crowded all her in.
terest in the senatorial fight into
! the last few hours of that strue-
gle. During the entire session
of the legislature local statesman
and others refused to become ex-
cited, although the subject was
, accorded much calm considera-
ton. Saturday night, however,
things began to warm up.
Crowds gathered about the door
of the telephone Office, and every
message started a fresh volume
of chatter.
The practical joker was present
early in the evening. Robert
Johnson was called from his
chair in Tan1many by a messen-
ger announcing that he was
wanted at the telephone Office.
A moment later, parties in the
office of Bryson & Woodsen saw
"Bob' coming up the street in
a keen trot, and disappear In the
telephone Office. "Hello," said
Bob, "who's this?" and strange
to say the parties in Bryson &
Weodson's Office heard the query.
Campbell; Pm in Salem"
came the answer. "Well, what
is it?" said Bob, and his voice
was trembling with excitement.
CTS fixed to elect Mitchell on
the last ballot at midnight"
came over the phone. Bob
dropped the receiver and nearly
broke something in his haste to
get out on the street, where he
confidently impaired 'sthe tip'
to everybody he met. The chill
which took possession of him
when he learned that the mes
sage had come from Bryson &
Woodson's Office, was dispelled
later when at midnight the mes.
sage came from Salem that
Mitchell had been elected and on
the ballot IL O'Clock, when
Bob had the laugh on the per.
petrators of the joke.
The announcement that a SEN
ator had been elected brought a
sigh Of relief for it was feared
that there would be no election.
With few exceptions everyone
was pleased with the result.
The republicans were gratifed
to know that competent man
had been elected and that he
was the choice of a majority
of the republicans in the legis-
>lature, having received IS re-.
publican votes. The democrats
were oVerjoyed because it was
Mitchell. Mr.. Mitchell received
46 votes, eleven of which were
democratic.
