Gen eral Summary of Lo cal Conditions. Thore has been suoh a pull on live stock during the lust tew months that much local stock has been picked up, which causes an iuoreune in the price, and especially so is it noticeable in hogs, which have taken at leant a 25 or 40 per cent raise within the last week. Lambs remain steady about the same; cows for the roasou above ttated are also higher. Steers are somewhat ait'ected, for at this time of the year there is usually considerable of this stock available. Considerable grain is moving local ly, and but very little is getting into the port oities, whioh causes exporters to cease chartering vessels for Sep tember loading. The latest advices from the east say time enure is a uinerence or opinion as t ) tno basis on winch uregou sta pie wool 19 selling. Sales up to 00c have been reported, but claims are niudo that the price is too high. The eastern quotation runs 2()(a18 for sta ple clothing, and valley No. 2, 20(33. Idaho in original bags at l'J()20. Poaches aro getting in very freely and are not of tho best grado, the early crop seeming to be slightly ait'eoted and some rough but probably is due to tho hurry up plan to gut some of the fruit to market, for the pouch orchards throughout the eountv look exceptionally hue and hold some mag nificent iruit. The city market re ports an over oupply and former prices seem 10 ue wen maintained. Tomatoes continue in over supply, yot are bringing a fair price. Cutter remains Arm but has experi enced a slight drop within tho last few days. City people are always ready to ap preciate improved service by the tele phone companies. The less rate and quick returns from long distance calls promised resident people here is bound to have beneficial results for the company. BRIEF NEWS NOTES. WHOLESALE QUOTATIONS.

In many places in Great Britain, and especially In some of (he fishing vil lages of Cornwall' and df certain' parts of Scotland, sue;a thing as a genuine surmjme Is nevVj'eveu heard. Every man in the place Is known by a nick name. In most of these villages this has beeu brought nbout originally by the fact that all the Inhabitants have only had very few surnames among them. One or., two prevailing families have represented the population and have married and Intermarried till trying to distinguish a man by his surname has only created confusion. And even some of the nicknames have begun to act In the same way. At a village not very far from Wick the writer knows of some fishermen who had originally been nicknamed "Dumpy" and had J left so mauy descendants that other specific nicknames had been' necessary to distinguished which of the "Dum pys" was meant on given occasions. At another village not far from this one several nicknames have In the same way become the only known fam ily names. The writer was once In the general shop here when a small boy enmo In and asked for some ar ticle, stating that It was for Blower. "Blower?" said the shopkeeper. "Which Blower? There are scores of Blowers?" The child nnswered at once: "It's for 'Bowlegglt' Blower, 'Red Lugged' (eared) Blower's laddie." London Answers. Big Revival at Baptist Church. The First Baptist church of Oregon City will enter upon an extended ser ies ot revival meetings about tlie first week in October. At least four weeks of meetings are planned, but they will continue longer if the interest war rauts. Siuce June 1st, every Sunday service and every Thursday prayer meeting, some phase ot revival effort has beeu considered. Subjects were disoussed whioh have had special reference to the preparation that is needed by tlie church and people to carry on successful revival meetings, and the pastor will continue to discuss subjects of like nature until the be ginning of the special meetings. lliese meetings are planned ou a very large scale. The evening meet ings will b e hold at the church and the afternoon meetings will be held in the suburbs about Oregon City. The latter (nestings w ill be held in the outskirts of the city in order that those may attend who find if- incon venient to oouio to the city and that many may be readied by tho evan gelists who would not otherwise come under their influence. At tho end of tlii-i week, when all the facts relative to very succesi'ul evangelists, wUo may be obtained, are iu the hands ot the pastor, tho execu tive committee of the church will meet to determine who shall be en gaged to do this jvork. Several very prominent and successful evangelists aro under consideration and special care will bo taken in making the se lection ot the right kind Df workers wiio may bo ahlo to influence all classes of people iu Oregon City and suburbs who are now indifferent to religious matters. With tho preach ing evangelist will be engaged a sing ing evangelist who will have charge of the solo nud ohorns work. When those helpers are engaged facts rela tive to their success iu other places aud their method of , work will ap pear iu the papers so that all may bo acquainted with them befure their work begins. . This is to beVaii old-fashioned reviv al meeting of the Moody and Saukey type. The burden of the mes'sage shall be that "all have sinned and coni'e short of the glory of God" and that Jesus Christ is the sinner's Savior.
