John Lenz came up from Hood River
today to make final proof on bis cash,
and that when the tug can pick np the
hawser, which is now anchored in the
outer break, the ship will come off with
out any trouble.
On Wednesday the Glenmorag needed
onlv an engine to have been hanled off
the sands, and brought in to Astoria by
the Traveler. Yesterday's storm made
the ship quite lively. She rolled very
easily, but was working herself out so
much that a stern hawser had to be
made fast to the shore. She parted this
and another bad to be put. out. At no
time did she thump heavily, but rather
rolled. It is thought that the engine
will be in place this afternoon, and that
the .ship will be hauled out to her an
chors, and that if the Traveler is there
she can be towed into any port, provid
ing the weather is not too stormy. Yes
terday morning the'surf had moderated
a great deal. With only reasonable
weather and a tug the Glenmorag will
be in Astoria this eveniDg. The Asto
rian's correspondent says that the ship
did not show a sign of leak or strain,
and at high tide yesterday . rolled as
easily as if at sea.

Bishop Earl Cranston left on last

THEY WERE DISMISSED.
But the Doxology Remains Unwept,
honored and Unsung.
In.
The divine gift of song is not vouch
safed to all mankind, and those who
join secret societies are, as a rule, as
tuneless as the famous harp that orna
mented Tara's halls. It is undoubtedly
true that when it comes to bad singing
every lodge of every society in the
United States can give every other lodge
of every other society some pointers.
The Elks of this city are no exception.
"When it comes to oratory we concede
that order the palm, but the warbling of
the lark, the melody of the nightingale
or the son and languorous notes of the
bol-bul are not heard in their lodge
room any more frequently than in any
other.
Saturday night the members had a
- sort of brief rehearsal, and everything
moved along smoothly until at the close
the presiding officer called for the
"Doxology." Then there was fun. The
doxology is not down in the ritual, yet
every member knew be ought to know
the doxology, why of course he did, but
etill he preferred some other brother
Should "pitch the tune." Every mem
ber looked at every other member, but
silence deep, dark and deadly settled
. like a funeral pall over the meeting.
Finally there was a confused murmur
started, grew and suddenly burst forth
in fall and magnificent discord. Judge
Bradshaw gently warbled an aria from
the "Bohemian Girl," Exalted Ruler
Micbell tuned up on "Annie Laurie,"
Bert Phelps broke forth in something
about "Ta la ra ra boom d'aye," Charley
Phillips' basso profundo popped up ap
parently from the lower story of the
building with the "Rock of Ages," while
Jadd Fish's rich contralto hummed that
favorite selection from II Trovatore en
tilled "Murphy Bought a Billy Goat;
He Boaght it for a Kid," Harry Lons
dale lost his bearings and warbled,
"There's Only One Girl in This World for
Me," McArthur trilled a trill about see
ing "The Lieht of Other Days Around
Me," E. O. McCoy caroled a few notes
of "In This Wheat Buy and Buy," and
every other member had a tune of his
own that became blended and lost in
the pat pourri. Finally they all came to
a stop and then one of the members,
whose name shall for obvions reasons
ever remain a secret, said : "Whyevery
body knows, or ought to know, that the
doxoloey begins: 'When I can read
my title clear to mansions' -in the
skies,' " and then Johnny Hampshire,
who bad been trying for ten minutes to
make a suggestion, fell at his post with a
dull, etc. ..The doxology was then post
poned. - - '
THE GLENMORAG.
The Durrant murder case came up in
the BUDreme court yesterday, on a mo-
. ...
tion to dismiss the order of submission
made at Los Angeles several weeks ago.
As was expected another delay resulted.
the matter going over for two weeks.
It will be remembered the court tbrew
a bombshell into the camo of Messrp.
Dickinson and Duprey, attorneys tor
Durrant, by declaring that the case was
submitted without briefs of the defend
ant having been filed. The attorneys
to pre
pare the briefs, and asked that the or
der be dismissed and that ' Durrant be
given another opportunity to file briefe.
This matter came up today for settle
ment. On this occasion the delay was
caused by Attorney-General Fitzgerald.
When the calender was called, he arose
and moved for a continuance, saying
that he had exercised due diligence, but
nevertheless was unable to prepare the
briefs to be submitted by the people in
the. case. The desired continuance was
granted.
It is impossible to foretell when a 'de
cision in the case will be rendered by
the court, inasmuch as the case has not
yet been formally submitted. Mean
while, Durrant is threatened with the
frightful possibility of dying of old age
behind prison bars.
Far Beat Ballway Lands.
The jury in the United States court in
the case of the United States court
against F. A. Seufert came up from
Portland last night and went out to Seu-
fert's place this morning. The suit is a
re-trial of that brought to condemn lands
belonging to Seufert, the government
wanting the lands ior a right of way for
the boat railway. In the former suit
Mr. Seufert was not satisfied with the
amonnt of damages given him and asked
for a new trial. As Mr. Murphy, U. S.
attorney, was also dissatisfied, the new
trial was granted. Besides Mr. Murphy,
who came up last night, there were fif
teen others comprising the jury and the
officer with them. They are O. R. Pihl,
C.' W. Boynton, F. E. Beach, W. Raw-)
lings, J. M. Archibald, John Gill, Jasper
Wilkins, C. D. Steen. C. Wells, J. D.
Simmons, S. J. Thornton, M. S. Booth,

A Word of Sympathy.
Died, Dec. 2, 1896, eldest son of Mr.
and Mrs. W. Bartlett.
Dear Friends, I know how impossible
it is to silence your grief with words.
The heart pleads for ntterance in tears,
and let it speak thus. - We bow in sor
row of the taking of your little one,
feeling that while the ripened frnit may
be gathered, it seems cruel that the bud
should be taken befcre it has even op
portunity to unfold its blossom. But in
nature fruits fall, and bo do blossoms
and buds. In the was s of kind Nature
this is perhaps best, and in taking from
our arms this little one we will try and
accept the cross and bear it, believing
that the bud will yet blossom and bear
fruit in the angel land, where the spirit
of this pure child has so early flown.

How Laughlin Was Held Up.
8k e Is Working Off the Beach In a Sat
isfactory Manner.
: The Astorian's 'special correspondent
at North - Beach sent word Friday after
noon, on authority of Captain Ingram,
that the ebip Glenmorag then bad her
head on to sea, was in good position,
A gentleman visited our sanctum this
morning and gives as the particulars of
the holding up of B. F. Laughlin last
night. : Mr. Laughlin was coming down
from his residence on the bluff, when he
saw a broad shouldered man waiting by
the side of the walk. He stopped to take
observation and saw that the man stood
there perfectly still, his position being
made visible by the fact that he was
smoking a cigar, the light of which could
be occasionally seen. Mr. Laughlin
did not like to be bluffed out so walked
up to the luiking stranger and discov
ered it was one of our new lamps.
With the close of the Presidential Campaign THE TRIBUNE recognizes the
fact trial tne American people are now anxious to give their attention to home and
business interests. To meet this condition, politics will bave far less epace and
prominence, until another state or .National occasion demands a renewal of tlie
fight for the principles for which THE TRIBUNE has labored from its inception
to the present day, and won its greatest victories.
Everv rjosmble effort will be nnt forth, and monev freelv nnent. to make THE

Governmental Banking Entities'.
Under the above caption the president
in his message says:
''The entire' case may be presented by
the statement that the day of eensi hie
and sound financial methods will not
dawn upon us until our government
abandons the banking business and the
accumulation of" fuods, and confines its
monetary operations to the reception of
the money contributed by the people for
its support and to expenditures of such
money for the people's benefit. Our
business interests and all good citizens
long for rest from feverish agitation, aod
the inauguration by the government of
a reformed financial policy which will
encourage enterprise and make certain
the rewards of labor and industry,"
Sprightly Sam Clarke.
Mr. 8. A. Clarke, the celebrated
writer and authority on horticulture,
was in the city today. We have heard
it said that Mr. Clarke was killed in the
Yakima Indian war of 1857, but have
always doubted it, for he is certainly
very much alive, and bis pen has not
forgotten its cunniug, nor does bis active
brain show any signs of decay, though
he is getting well up in years, way be
yond the age where many consider their
life's work ended. Clarke pegs away as
light hearted aod cheerful as though
life were mostly .before, instead of be
hind, him.
