HOME AND VICINITY Oregon WAU TO Till". Hll.T, City Episcopal Trouble. i hit nil St. Paul's clmrvh In this city is one of the oldest parishes in the state, and en rolled on its membership aie number f the oldest and most highly rojHi-lol citiaen ot Oregon. Troubles eonimcen red Home time More the last annual meeting, whon Htshop Morris was re quested to lemove Rev Donaldson from hia position a missionary in charge, by a majoiity vf ttio leading members, lint the bishop paid no attontion to their appeal, not- has he been near !hc church eince the dilticoltie begun, and as consequence many ot the Wiling and beat memheia of the parish have re tnaineil away. The aeeites that have been enacted of late in conavouenee of ' the churv'h trouble are disra-dil in the extreme. To an outsider it would ap pear that Rev. lVnaldson, as well as the bishop, are to blame to a great extent for allowing matters to reach audi a stage. Kven if the majority of he congregation were all in the wrong, and the minister in the right, it would be a matter, of christian policy for him to select another new 01 labor, it bv so doing harmony could be restored in the church. Two sets of wardens and vestrymen have b-en elected, and both are making a fight for supremacy, tlie opposition to the minister being in the majority, who recently took possession of the church and placed new lock on the doors, and eent a messenger to the minister inform ing him that the wardens would open the church for all services. But when the carpenter went to the church to do ome work on the doors, Rev. IVnald son ordered him out, and applied for a warrant for his arrest, and when told that he would have to put up costs, gave up the idea, and asked his attorney if he would be justified in shooting any one who trespassed by entering the hurch without his permission, who applied in (tie atiumaltve. The vestry of the opposition to the minister have retained Uistnct Attorney McBiide and Hon. H E Cross as their attorneys, and the battle for supremacy still rages Rev. Donaldson was "given ten davs to vacate the rectory, hut he still holds the fort. The troubles assumed a serious nature this week when the vestry sent a carpenter to put new locks and padlocks on the doors and oidered thein locked. They also had the clap per and lope lemoved irom the bell, so that it could not he used to call services except as the vestry ordered Jiev, IVmaidson came in about this time and refused to leave the church so that Mr Fiance could lock the building, but the door was lo. ked, .Mr. France carrying away the keys in hi rocket "When Kev. lonalcson found thut he was locsed in, armed himself with a club and ascended into the belfrv, and begun pounding the bell with a club. A larve crowd soon gathered in front of the church, when the door was opened, and a lively little fight oecured between vestrymen France and Glasspool on one side and Rev. Donaldson and wife on the. other. Mrs. Donaldson is said to have ? urished a hammer in close proximity to her enemies heads, but the others were not armed with iron bars as mentioned in Wednesday's Oxon ian. Mrs. Donaldson had warrants issued for the arrest of vestrymen Glass pool and France for assault a'nd battery, claiming that she received some severe injuries and a partially dislocated shoulder. Other arrests are thieatened, and the trial of Messrs. Hlasspnol and France has been get for 18th of May. The latest event in the church troll-1 bleisthe arrest of Mr. Ed. Wniflock, for using abusive language to Mr. H. I.. Kelly and another memiier of the vestry, on the streets. He was arrested Wed nesday and the case has been postponed until Saturday. This is the first anest made of the party who are defending .Donaldson BASK BAIL. Oregon ('ily Wins the First Kiiuieor the Season. The Oregon City, jr.

Sent to One Magazine, of Which Not 200 Were Accepted. Mr. Bok, the editor of The Ladies Home Journal, recently gave some inter esting figures relative to the manuscripts received by his niaeazine during 1890. Owing to its departments and peculiar character, the Journal probably receives more manuscripts than any magazine published. Mr. Bok says that lie re ceived at his office a total" number of 15, 205, manuscripts. Of these, 2,280 were poems; 1,746 stories and 11,179 miscel laneous articles. Of the poems, 66 were accepted : of the stories, only 21, and of the articles 410, of which latter, how ever, over 300 were solicited articles. Thus, it will be seen that of the entire 15,000 manuscripts only 497 were ac cepted, a trifle over three per cent. Deducting from this the 300 accepted at- tides written at the editor's solicita tion, the net percentage of unsolicited manuscripts accepted is brought down to 187, or a little more than one per cent. S'atistics such as these show how much utter trash is bftinjj written, and the number of persons" writing who ought to be employing their time at Bomething else and better. Mr. John A. Haylock, of New Era, has clipped the following from the Salem Statesman, sent the s.tme to this office "Brown Williams, M. D., in the Pitts burg Post, gives the following cure and preventive for la grippe. Allow me to respectfully sav to the medical profession that I have found the following to be safe and satisfactory cure of la grippe. It has relieved the virulent symptoms of the worst cases. as aching of the head, back bone, and pain of the muscles, etc., in from two to five hours: Chloroform, one drahm ; pulverized white sugar, one drachm: tincture of pleurisy root, one drachm; tincture of gelsemium, one drachm; bromide of potash one and one-half drachms; mix. Take one teaspoonful in a wine glassful or more of hot water everyone or two hours antil the viru lence of the symptoms abate; then give it every three or four hours if needed, to quiet the restlessness, etc. To promote convalescense give twenty or thirty drops of aromatic spirits of ammonia in a wineglassful or more of hot water and Sugar, adding a little whisky if needed every four hours, and two grains of quinine twChours after. and so turn about with thpse two rxedi icines as may be necessary Pneurrionia is generally prevented by the first prescription, but if its svmii toms should occur two or three drops of verratrin viradic with the one-twelfth of a grain of sulphate morphia in water should be given instead of the quinine as long as may be necessary to arrest the symptoms, with such local applica tions over the lungs a may be indi cated. To prevent taking the grip take this prescription: Napthaline, one drachm: menthol, one-half drachm; alcohol, six drachms; chloroform, two drachms; mix. Keep corked closely when not using. Breathe the vapor from the phial np the nostril and by the mouth several times, or occasionally during the day or night This has prevented the disease in all cases in which it has been used.
