THE OREGON
SOCIAL EVENTS.
The hat social given at Weinhard 's
hall last Saturday night by the lading of
the Episcopal church, was a novel and
successful affair. In fact, it was the hit
of the saason in the way of entertain
ment. The way in which the embryo
men milliners trimmed hats outof the raw
material was a caution. When the con
teat was ended, after the grotesque grand
march was executed and the critical in
spection of the judges in the grand stand
was a thing of the past, the display of
female headgear would hare been a
creditable display in the window of a
Main street millinery shop on opening
day. Dancing was participated in by the
majority of the large number of persons
present, Miss Veda Williams providing
the music at the piano. The members
of Mrs. Lawrence's dancing class made
some graceful figures on the floor. Re
freshments were served. The reception
committee were Mrs. Nelson Lawrence,
Misses Hattie Cochrane and Imo Hard-
me. In the hat contest Konaid jonn-
son won the first prize, J. P. Keating
the second and Walter Bradley the
booby prize .

A. J. Montgomery gave a reception to
the members of their congregation and
friends at their home on upper Seventh
steeet. During the afternoon and even
ing nearly 200 people called and paid

Refresmments were served in the tastily
decorated dining room and the guests

Grand Jury Report.
In the circuit court of the State of
Oregon, for the County of Clackamas.
To His Honor, Judge T. A. McBrlde,
judge of the abpve entitled court:
We, the undersigned mambers of the
grand jury for the April, 1899, term of
said court, beg leave to submit this our
final report.
First we hnve inquired Into all mat
ters of crime brought before us and have
returned into court no true bill, and
only one not true bill, and we have ex
amined into a number of cases which we
do not deem necessary to set forth in
this report.
We have examined into the several
ofliceslnthe county court house and
find the same in a satisfactory condition.
and the officers therein apparently doing
tneir duty.
We have carefully examined Into the
pauper care of this county, and would
recommend that the commissioners
court ot tills county would carefully in
vestigate an applications for aid, as we
find that the monthly pauper account
amounts to about the snm of $350. And
we would further recommend the im
mediate purchase of a poor farm as a
matter of economy.
We have visited the countv iall and
find it In a clean and neat condition :
also vinitod the city jail and find it the
same. We would recommend that the
county commissioners order a change in
tue door opening Into the corridor of the
county jail, so that the Jailer will not be
obliged to turn his back to the prisoners
while closing the door, and further we
wish to congratulate the county of
Clackamas for the reason that we found
the jail empty,
An! now having completed our la
bors, we most respectfully ask to be dis
charged. . J. S. Casto, foreman.
