Owing to an oversight on the part of the proof reader, we omited to give the Daily Telegram, of Portland, credit for the article entitled, “Killed his Father,” on first page.

Last week’s issue of the Weekly Times, of Portland, says: “The News boy, of Portland, and the A dvertiser , of Ashland, Ore., are spatting over no thing. Hope they both come out ahead.” From this, we infer that the Newsboy has published something smart(?)—or what its conceited editor thought as such. This must be the case, as we have not received a copy of that sheet since our challenge. “Spatting” is out of the question. We challenged the Newslioy and expected its publisher to meet the challenge as a man and not publish ar ticles that he was afraid or ashamed to ' have us see. We challenge the Newsboy again and are ready to refer the matter to any competent ami disinterested person or I persons for settlement. Come, Mr. Cohen, be a man.

He says: “The churches that are the most aggresive and successful are those most opposed to dancing, i The dance will never influence anyone j for good and the ball room is no place ! for the Christian.
