SPOKANE, July 21. Meek parish
loners of North Yakima parsons were
uhaken to their modest foundations
when ministers appeared tn their pil
pits last evening In tbelr shirtsleeve
and delivered the word of God from
a hot-weather pulpit In apparent com
fort. With the mercury standing at 103
degrees In the shade, enterprising
preachers premeditated the affair and
mutually agreed to doff the conven
tional hlack coat for the cooler meth
od. It Is feared that a combination
of tbe devoutest of the devout will be
formed and a formal protest made
against the seeming disrespect to tho
holy places.
Male portions of tbe congregations
immediately followed the pastor'
lead, doffed their uncomfortable
coats and sermons were delivered to
cool men llrteners and shocked wool
en members.

BRIGHT PROSPECTS.
UNIVERSITY .OF OREGON, EU
GENE, Ore., July 21. The freahman
class entering the University of Ore
gon this fall will be by far the largest
in Its history. Every Indication points
to a freshman registration of 250, and
a total enrollment of 600 students,
not Including the departments of law
and medicine. Last year one-fourth
of all high school graduates of Ore
gon entered the University of Ore
gon, and there Is every reason to be
lieve that, an even greater percentage
will enter this fall, though the num
ber of graduates Is nearly a half
larger than last year. Another source
that will help awell the number very
materially Is the large number of
eastern people coming Into the state.
Tbe registrator's office receives many
letters each week asking Ic credits
from eastern high schools will be ac
cepted. The demand for catalogues
has been unprecedented, and unless
all signs fall, next year's enrollment
will be a reiurd breaker.
