W en his name was called l. 10'pondcd with tho name of W. D.

The Ballot was tho same with the ex caption that tho Multcormu connty del egation desiring a change, today switched their complimentary vote from A. L. Mills to M. C.

Absent 4 A f(ew Religion (Portland Telegrom) Tho "Fire of the'IIoly Ghost" Ja the name given a new sect of Christiana, which boa recently mvlo its debut in Corvallls. Captain Morcer, formerly if the Salvation Army in that town, ia tho leading spirit in tho new order of affaira, and tho votaries are given to ehoutlng and jumping up and down in a manner that disturbs tho neighbors. The tcct, wbicb now numbers between 30 and 40 members, waa driven beyond tho olty limits under threata ot arrest, so tho leaders renlod a room in the out klrta whero they tovel in tho glory ot aalvatlon. Tho fire of tho Holy Ghost, it Is claimed by those people, takes pos session of the entire body and even -iparklea at tho fingers' ends in such a way that tho faithful ones may bohold it in their bretbron. One of tho principal tcneta of tho tect ia that of restitution, and every convert must peraonally wait on tho party ho or alio has wronged and confess and ask forgivoness. All debts miiBtbe paid in lull, and tho body and soul bo thereafter consecrated to the ser vice of tho Lord. It is relatol by ono young woman who attended tho meetings that she waa p.iv- I en to e coiling and making iuu of tho mothoda and forma of worship. (She got into the habit of imitating tho dovo tecs when nt homo, and oncp, while jumping up and down eho WA3 taken possession of by tho spirit hereolf, and ia now ono of tho moat oaruest workers.

Backed up by over a third, of a century of remarkable and uniform cures, arecoril such as no other remedy for the diseases and weaknesses peculiar to women ever attained, the proprietors and makers o! Dr. Tierce's Favorite Prescription now feel fully warranted in offerinp to pay $500 in IcRnl money of the United States, for any ca of Leucorrhea, Female Weakness, Prolapsus, or Falling of Womb which they cen not cure. All they aik is n fair and reasonable trlat of their means of cure. Their financial responsibility is well known to every newspaper publisher and UrJCtfUt in ths Uuitcd States, with most of whom they have done business for over a third of a century. Prom this fact it will readily be seen how utterly foolish it would be far them to malic the above unprece dented and remarkable oflct if they were not basing their offer on curative means having an unparalleled record. No other medicine than Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre scription could poaibly,,wln out," as the nv. .joes, on such a proposition. But W know whereof they speak. They have the most remarkable record of cures made by tills world-fanieU remedy ever placed to the credit of any preparation especially designed for the cure of woman's peculiar cilmcnts. This wonderful remedy, there fore, ctnnds absolutely alone, as' the only one possessed of such remarkable curative properties as would warrant ItsOTakers in publishing such a marvelous offer ns ia above made in the utmost good faith, "J want to tell yoji of the great improvement In my health blnce takltii; your ' Favorite l'rc- enpUon,' " say Mrs. H. S, Jones, 01 i-orest, it. v-. "Y licit 1 iiegan ur use i wus a 1 wreck ami had despaired or ever having any hcrlth again. Could uot tt up all day.
