Salem, Or, Feb. 17.-There will
be no executive mansion for the
governor Of the state of Oregon.
The house decided that matter this
morning by vote of 26 to "a
when, on motion # Gault, the ap-
preparation of $14,500 for the pur-
chase of the E. N. Cooke residence
was stricken from the appropria-

more largely on the statement of
Governor Chamberlain that he
would not occupy the residence
than for any other reason.

Salem, Or, Feb. 1S.-Geer gain

Bailey of Multnomah. Fulton gain.
ed none and lost none, Multno-
mah's scattering votes were cast as
usual for various favorite sons. On
the whole the joint ballot was rath.
er tame, more like one in midses-
sion than one in thesupposed-to be-
exciting last week of the session.
Bailey voted for George H. Will
liams when his name was reached
on joint roll-call. After the call
had been completed he asked that
his ballot be changed and recorded
for T. T. Geer. His announcement
was greeted with cheers and ap-
.plause, which President Brownell
only subdued with difficulty, and
by vigorous, resounding and repeat
ed application of the gavel to the
block of marble reposing on Speak
er Harrison's desk. An expectant
hush then ensued, but no other leg
islator followed the example of Bal
ley, and after a few minutes the
president announed the vote and
the joint assembly adjourned.

Salem, Or, Feb. 1S.-The close
of the senatorial contest may be de-
layed until Saturday night. The
senate yesterday adopted concur
rent resolution to the effect that the
legislature adjourn sine die, Friday
at midnight. That resolution was
amended in the House this morn
ing to make the day of final ad-
jonrnment, Saturday, instead of
Friday. There the matter rests for
the present. and it remains to be
seen which branch Of the legislature
is to have its way in the matter.
The Fulton people held another
meeting late in the afternoon yes
terday in President Brownell's
room. 1t was simply in the inter-
est of cementing once more the ties
that bind. If any new plan of &C
tion was decided on there was no
development today which would
tend so 10 indicate. 1t was just a
plain 'jollying" party The dem
oerats also held a meeting last night,
and theirs was more important,
judging by the result, for they went
on record, unanimously, as being
in favor of standing together firmly
to the last, and voting all the time
for c.. E. s. Wood.
Thus are set at naught the re-
ports of the past two days that the
democrats would go to Geer when
ever he should lack but II of cleo
ton, and thus are dashed the hopes
of the Multnomah-Geer people that
these reports might have some
foundation.

And yet she refuses to love two that she is
bound by every law of humanity to cherish as if
they were her own.
Of course there is the chance that she might
not have had any time or opportunity to study
boys and girls in real life. Perhaps her own life
has been cold bleak and lonely.
The young lives she writes about may be mere
ly those of the children of her brain, and to her
they may he unreal and unnatural.
She may never have had home or sisters or

WEALTH HAS WINGS.

People find it hard to believe, concerning those

known .opulence,
Ten years ago James B. Leddon was one of the
wealthy men of Boaton. He was broker, rated at
at least half million. But the panic of '93 cleaned
him out and left him penuiless and broken in spirit,
His abilities seem to have been atrophied for he
never got up in finance again.
Some weeks ago he was arrested in New York
for permitting his children to peddle the
For two years he had been living in e small, misera-
bic room, supported wholly by his two daughters,

Broken-hearted and disgmced, the once rich
man was separated from his children and taken to
prison, charged with violating a city ordinance.
1t is pathetic but significant rebuke to the in
science of wealth. People are apt to entertain the
idea that if they only get rich they liked for
this world, if not for the next. Usually man who
loves money we'll enough to accumulate big fortune
loves it we'll enough to cling to it, But not always,
this case and many another testify.
Money is q nice thing to have, but it is not a
safe thing to fasten ones life ambition upon or to
pin all of ones hopes to.

WHY WAGNER WAS GREAT.

Musicians and some other extraordinary per-
sons have long dotted on Wagner's soulful strains
and have wondered why everyone dId not 60 into
ecstatc raptures over the ma iestc dscords of his
mastery musical BRAIN
These same people throw up their hands at even
popular music, not ragtme, mind you, bat catchy,
cheerful, pretty music. They would have none of it,
And they went around in such a superior man
ner, they were so far above the heads of everyday
common lovers of sweet strains that these same
everyday people dropped in shame when told in
lofty tones that they not true lovers of the
beautiful in music, and really had no idea of what
first-cass composition was
Now it is the inning of the everyday people.
A noted scientist has said that the great mas
ter was great simply because he was dyspeptic
"That his stupendous harmonies We're fathered by
headaches and mothered by nervousness Melan-
choly fostered his erratc inspirations and insomnia
directed his weird chords"
In other words, the intense meodies-but melo-
dy is surely too light word to use in speaking of
Wagner's compositions-were but carnations of q
mind and body controlled 10y indescrlbable suffer-
ing.
This scientist also intimates, delicately, of
course that great minds are prone to run in the
same channel
Not that lovers of Wagner's music are at all
like the object they worship so devouty; heavens,
no!
But it is some little comfort to those who
openly and honestly confess their love for popular
strains to know that Wagner worked with a diseased
brain and his efforts were only the children of Il
mind racked and ruined by anguish.
