The old Methodist church parsonage
now undergoing repairs and re-modeling,
is one of the old historic buildings in
Oregon City. In fact, it was built so
long ago, that no one remembers exactly
when it was built. The old M. E.
church, now occupied as a furniture
and second , hand store, was erected in
1843, and it is believed that the parsonage
wan erected soon afterwards.
A number of the Evangelical churches
of Oregon City did not have services last
Sunday morning, but the congregations
attended the union memorial services at
the Baptist church. Pocoration day, of
course, did not occur until Thursday, but
it was the desire of the G. A, R. to have
the religious memorial services at this
time Meade Post, U. A. R., under the
direction ot Commander Apperson,
Women's Relief Corps, and Company F,
O. N. G., under the direction of Captain
F. S. Kelly and Lieut. Pickens, led by
the Park Place band, formed a proces
sion at the Armory hall, at 10 a. m., and
marched through Main street to the
Baptist church, where the services be
gan promptly at 10:;i0.
The seating capacity of the large audi
torium was aoon entirely occupied and
the services began with music bv tne
band followed with the invocation. A
choir composed of representatives from
the different church choirs in the city
furnished excellent and appropriate mil
sical selections. !n the pulpit with
Rev. M. L. Rngg, Pr. Cowan, Rev
Montgomery and Rev, 8yk.es occupied
seats, and assisted in the services.
Rev. Kugg delivered an eloquent and
able sermon appropriate to the time and
place, and while he paid beautiful trib
uies to the memories of the heroic soldiers
who had laid down their lives to save
the country, he urged upon the audience
the importance of patriotism and good
citizenship. He asserted that there were
dangers lurking abroad in the land that
it would be well to guard against; that
at no time had theru been more urgent
need for genuine patriotism than now;
that we should rigidly guard against un
worthy pauper foreign immigration, and
there were-other things that threatened
the stability of our republican institu
tions. While he believed in giving the
public schools every possible encourage
ment and to do everything possible to in
crease their efficiency, he did not think
colleges should be supported by state
funds and appropriations.
The church was most artistically and
profusely decorated, by Mrs. J. K.
Groom, who planned and supervised the
arrangement of the tasty display. On
the wall to the left of the pulpit hung
portraits of the father of our country,
George Washington and Gene, of Grant;
while on the right were pictures of the
two martyred presidents, Lincoln and
Garfield. Boqueta of roses and other
flowers, beautiful in design, were ar- j
ranged along the edge of the pulpit plat
form, and the front of the organ from
the floor up was a veritable bower of
roses, grape vines, ferns and other flow
ers. rom the center ol the ceiling over
the platform were suspended the letters
"G A R," formed of snow ball, and sns
pended directly under the portrait of
Washington was fastened to the wall a
floral flag made by the Ladies Reliel
Corps. The stripes were made of red
and white roses, and the blue back
ground was formed of pansies and the
stars were represented by white pansies.
Flags, banners, etc., were tastily ar
ranged, and near the entrance the new
rark Place nag occupied a prominent
position.

Shcpard, Sheriff Maddock and William
Putrow were summoned to appear be
fore U. S. Commissioner iVady at Port
land last Saturday, as witnesses in the
examination of the Close brothers, on a
charge of counterfeiting. Sheriff Mad
dock savs the only reason that he ar
rested the younger Close loys was for
the purpose of holding thorn as witnesses
and informed the V. S. marshal of this
fact when they were transferred to Port
land, as he considered At Close the only
likely guilty one.

four more were transferred from the

informal and social in its nature, and
a number ol invited guests were present.
Refreshments were served, and all en
joyed the affair immensely.

The famous Cressy case has been de
cided by Judge Hurlev in favor of the
Cre?sysideof litigation. The case was
op for hearing in Portland Wednesday,

interests. The court decided at the time
that Mr. Cressy, of Milwaukee, disposed
of the note, he was incapable of doing
business for himHelf,and the third parties
who attempted to collect a note that had
been satisfied, were left out in the cold.

falls.
DECORATION DAY CEREMONIES.
At 9 o'clock the pupils of St. John's
school under direction of Father Hille
brand marched in double file to Pope's
hall bearing flags, where they were dis
missed, after appropriate exercises.
At 10 o'clock a. m. the procession
was made up with the Park Place band
in their new uniforms, in the lead, Co.
F, O. N. G., Meade Post, G A. R.
Ladies Relief Corps, and A. O. U. W.
They marched on Main street to Tenth
and along the road tip the bluff to Seventh
street, where the members of the state
grange fell into line.
They proceeded up the street to the
to the Eastham school building,
where the pupils ot the Barclay school
had also gathered. A heavy storm came
up at this time and the school children
were instructed that they had better not
go out in the procession, although forty
or fifty of them followed up with flowers,
with which they decorated graves in the
cemetery. The procession moved on
through the rain to the cemetery, where
the usual decoration ceremonies occur, ed.
On account of the continued heavy
rains, the procession re-formed, marched
back to Pope's hall, where the .rand
played appropriate music, and President
J. M. BIoss, of the State Agricultural
college, delivered an eloquent and ap
propriate address. Additional exercises
were held at the Eastham school build
ing, and several addresses were made.
On the previous afternoon, committees
from Meade Post and Women's Relief
Corps, held appropriate memorial servi
ces in the public schools. The exercises
occurred at two o'clock at the Barclay
school and at three o'clock at the
Eastham school.
The heavy showers of rain was a re
nous drawback to the decoration ceremo
nies and parade.
The display of flowers was grand and
the ceremonies were interesting as far
as they could be carried out, in spite of
the stormy weather.
For a week or two a gang of loggers
says the Corvallis Times, have been en

the work of the men is that they are set

flood Cltlienslllp Meeting.
Pursuant to call a large number of clt
inens gathered at the Congregational
church at ,1 o'clock Sunday afternoon, to
hear good cilUcuahip discii'scd. The
meeting was called to outer by F. E
IViualdson, chairman, and after music
by the choir and devotional service, ad
dresses were made, by Rovs, Cowan,
Rugg, Montgomery mid Sykes, all urg
ing hotter things in the line of good cttl
aeiiship. Rev. Sykes thought that the
ten commaudmtmta would he a good
platform to elect men on for municipal
ollicd, H. L. Kelly favored Improving
the qualifications of good citixenshlp,

thought ministers should display more
cl.arilv and less sectarianism, C. II.
I've made a five-minute address, in which
he favored pure government and better
citizenship. Senator Itmwnoll was
called on and said that municipal ofll
cials should be cncomagc;l when they
vote right, especially mayor and coon
cilmeii who do not got any pay for their
services. Otiiiciliiiun Stevens said he
had no excuses to make for voting on
any measures, while a member of the
city council; that he did not care what
his constituents naid alxuit his record as
a city father, as he was able to take care
of himself. He hud been told by sev
eral citizens that some of the city
thorities were receiving pay for allowing , y
gambling games to exist in the city, and:
had no right to dispute their word. He
said the debt of the city had loen in
creasing at the rate of 110, (KK) m-r year for
the past six years, until the taxes col
lected, would hardly pay the Interest on
the indebtedness.
