James Berry was not able to be
on hand for business yesterday morn
ing. Late Thursday evening he start
ed south on the state road, on his mo-
tor bicycle. He rode swiftly. Out a
short distance south Of the Smith
school house the front fork of his ma
chine broke. A traveller came along
afterward and picked James up.
There were scratches and bruises
about his face, and James was SO
shaken up that he didn't quite know
what was going on. He was brought
to his home at Victor Hurts. where a
good nights sleep restored him suffi-
.ciently to realize everything, save
what happeded when the wheel broke
and for few hours thereafter.
The sale of the J. H. Moore re-
sidence property In Corvallis to Sam
81. Moore, failed to materializs. The
bargain was made, the deed was
prepared, and the buyer was ready
with the cash to buy his parents out
Of house and home. The elder Moore
had firmly made up his mind to re-
turn to Illinois; but when 1t came
time to Sign the deed, there was hesl.
tation. The hesitation deepened into
delay, and at length the whole trans
action was declared off. Sam H.
Moore has leased a house at the
Woodcock dairy, and is moving into
1t with his family. The webs are al
ready growing on the feet of the elder
Moore, and 1t is useless for him to try
TO be anything else than an Oregon
Ian now.

Power of the United states Senate.

The senate is today the most power
full single chamber in any legislative
body In the world, but this power,
which is shown daily by the wide at
tention to all that is said and done in
the senate of the United States, is not
the product of selfish and cunning usur-
pations on the part of an ambitious
body. 1t is due to the original consti-
tuition of the senate, to the fact that
the senate represents states, to the pow
ers conferred upon it at the outset by
the makers of the constitution. TO its
permanency Of organization and to the
combination of legislative. executive
and judicial functions which sets it
apart from all other Legislative bodies.
Without the assent of the senate no
bill can become law, no Office can be
filed. no treaty ratified.-Henry Cabot
Lodge in Scribner's.

The story of Jules Verne's courtship
and marriage is most romantic one.
Verne was shy young fellow who had
a great dislike to the society of wcm-
en-, and it was only his affection for
his brother which led him to go to the
latter's wedding. Verne, however, ar
rived too late and found that the Whole
bridal party had left for the church
with the exception of the brides sister,
a charming young widow, who explain
ed the matter The friendship thus ac-
cidentally begun rapidly developed into
a warmer feeling and ended in mar
riage which may be described as ideal.
