From
Oftlf,
Ftrt In Prlntine
the 'Lse of the Blackboard In the
Kunday School" wa presented to the
convention in an interesting manner, by
Mrg. Ezra Mauer of Milwaukee. She
said the first thing to be done by the
superintendent or teacher on Sunday
morning was to place the subject and
Damaokd by Fir. Last Friday even
ing at about 7 o'clock, our townspeopla
were startled by the cry of fire and soon
learned that the building at the corner
of Main and First streets, owned by M.
K. Bain and occupied by him as the pub
lishing house of The Three Bisters and
the postoffice, was the scene of the fire.
Though there was no blaze visible from
the outaidh, still volumes of smoke filled
the air. The flames were mostly con
fined to the hall and stairway leading to
the upper floor, as we understand the
fire originated by Mr. Bain, while on the
stairs with a lighted lamp in hi hand.
At 3:05 1 slipping and breaking the lamp thns
chosen words on behalf of the people of everything about the leason poasible up-
Milwaukee he turned the town over to
the visitor and delegates and told thorn
to make all they could out of it. Presi
dent C. Hoberg mane a hearty response
on behalf of the visiting delegates and
thanked the good people of Milwaukee
, for the hearty reception tendered them,
A quartet then rendered excellent
music.
Ket, A . J. Montgomery of Oregon
City was to have delivered an address on
"What Calls us Together" but he not
being present, the time was filled in by
other. However, the people were
much disappointed by Mr. Montgomery's
non-aparance.
At 9 o'clock there was a general hand
shaking, getting acquainted, with which
the evening session closed.
Convention assembled at 0 a. on. and
was lead in a praise service by Secretary
B. M. Fisch. Ielegates were arriving
on every car from Oregon City and were
met by the reception committee, Messrs.
Oscar Wissinger, J. Stuckey and J . C.
Gibson, and escorted to the Evangelical
church convention hall.
At 9 :30 splendid addresa waa de
livered by Geo. Randall of New Era on
Sunday School woik.
At 10 o'clock Mrs Geo. C. Brownell
of Oregon City read a paper on "Hind
rances of Sunday rx-hool Work." She
said one of the greatest hindrances of
Sunday school work is that too many
members ate worldly minded, utterly
without the spirit of Christ. Another
hindrance was irregular attendance and
that the devil is running rampant from
coast to coast, working his hindrances
through bis agents.
Report of officers was next listened to.
The secretary's report showed four new
schools in the county. The average at
tendance of the school reported for the
year was 1855, against 1192 last year.
The school having the largest general
attendance is the First Baptist of Oregon
City 210, next largest, Congregational of
Oregon City 120, and 3rd, the Presbyter
ian of Oregon City, 00.
Treasurer reported disbursements had
been equal to receipts, consequently
there was no balance.
Tlie president appointed the following
as a committee on resolutions; Mrs. W.
A. White, Mrs. A. M. Paiker, Mrs. C.
F. Clark, Rev. S. W. Strykerand Rev.
II. E. Hornechuch.
By 12 o'clock about 50 delegates were
in attendance and they all reported to
the town hall where there was a sumpt-'
uons repast in waiting which had been I
prepared by the good ladies of Milwaukee
and vicinity.
At 1:30 the convention re-assembled
feeling verv much refreshed after partak
ing of a good dinner, and was led in
song service by Miss Mabel Miller of
Milwaukee.
At 1 :50 came election of officers. Geo.
W. Swope of Oregon City was elected
president, T. J. Gary of Milwaukee first
vice-president, Woldon M. Shank of
Canby secretary, Mrs. C. F. Clark of
Clackamas treasurer. The president
having power to appoint additional
vice-presidents as in his judgement
seems beet .
At 2:05 Rev. J. W. Cowan D. D. of
Oregon City made an interesting address
to the Sunday school children which he
illustrated by some magnets of different
sizes, by which he showed them that as
there was magnetism invisible in that
horseshoe shaped piece of iron, so is tha
magnetism ol Christ to draw them to
him though he be invisible.
Mrs. E. W. Allen of Portland, a great
Sunday school worker gave an address
to the young, and old us well, which was
interesting and she illustrated her talk,
the subject of which was a "pure heart"
by a vial of clear water which she called
'Mary" and by placing little particles of
something in it at intervals, showed how
Mary's heart gradually becomes tarn
ished as she disobeys her . mother and
Master until it is scarlet, and then by
putting something else in the bottle she
holds it up to view perfectly transparent,
illustrating the purifying power of Jesus,
on the blackboard in an attractive
manner, so as to draw and hold the
minds of the children upon the lesson.
Her address was seconded by several
short talks by delegates. At this time
Mr. A. A. Morse, secretary of the State
Suuday school association being present
was called upon to give an outline talk
on state work. He said they were short
on finances, and that Clackamas County
Sunday School association had pledged
I'-'O last year and only 8 of that sum
had been paid. He said the State asso
ciation needed $2000 and that Portland
would give aa much as all the rest so if
outside raises $1000 Portland will give
a like aum.
An anthem, "Must Jesus Bear the
Cross Alone" was well rendered at this
time. Then followed a talk by Mrs. E.
B. Andrews of Oregon City, "Success in
Sunday School Work." She dwelt on
true consecration of the teachers and
parents and said that the success of
schools depended a great deal upon them.
At 4 o'clock an address by Geo. W.
fcwope of Oregon City on "The Duties
of Sunday School Superintendents"
which should have come at 2:25 was
postponed until the last every one
knew1, that there was goinetiling goad in
store for them and they wanted it to
come in order of climax. As Mr. Swope
is now serving his third term of super-
intendency of the Frat Baptist Sunday
spreading the flames, which he attempted
to subdue but was onsucceasful. About
dozen men were soon on the spot and
with buckets quickly extinguished the
flames which were fast creeping over the
building. These men are entitled to
great praise for their efficient work aa
firemen, but we are prouder of lady in
our town whose efforts were ontiring
and who pumped all the water used at
this fire, thereby proving herself gen
uine heroine. This is tb; second fire in
the past few months and we leel that
some measures should be taken to or
ganize a fire department.
Ax E.UOYABL Eocc Party. Last
Friday evening after the excitement of
the fire subsided about 25 Barlowites
were charmingly entertained by pro
gressive eucre at the residence of Mr.
and Mrs. W. W.Irvin. Fourtables were
run and some excellent playing done.
The priaes were won as follows : Ladies'
first prize for progressions, a lovely
cushion, by Mrs. Cas U. Barlow; gen
tlemen's prize a dainty photograph case,
by Mr. Ed E. Miller; the booby prize,
a very cunning little "pickaninny," by
Mrs. O. W. Quint. After playing, a
delicious lunch was served and everyone
present expressed himself as having
spent a most enjoyable evening. Mr.
and Mrs Irvin are, indeed, hospitable
entertainers.
Preparations for Adjoi'.nmest.
From all we are able to learn (treat prep
aration is being made for the" List meet-
ing of the literary for this season, which
will be next Friday evening, and in con- .
sequence we anticipate a good time for

school of Oregon City, it must and music by popular ladies and gentle
follow that he knew what he was talking
about. He said that a superintendent
must have true consecrated co-operation
from the teachers. A superintendent
might puzzle his brain and lose his sleep
formulating plans for the success of his
school, and meet his corps of teachers (in
a teacher? meeuu which he Btrongly
emphasized as being prerequiste to suc
cessful school work) to discuss bis ideas
with them, but unless he received their
wise counsel and hearty support in exe
cuting these plans his time was lost.
He said that a superintendent should
not go before his school on Sunday show
ing the cares of life on his face, but
should pray for strength that would en
able him to wear a smiling countenance
before the children as they always look
upon the superintendent as a model, and
that any teacher or superintendent that
could or would not take the time to per
lorm their duties, to hold teachers meet
ings, and to work together for the ad
vancement of Christ's cause and redemp
tion of fallen man, bad better get out of
the traces, for they were simply debarr
ing that way by staying in.
Saturday evening session opened at
7 :30 and was led in praise service by the
newly elected president, G. W. Swope
of Oregon City.
Then came reports of committee on
selection of a place to hold the next con
vention, reported that they had decided
on Oswego as a desirable place, with
Oregon City as a good second if anything
happened to prevent their meeting at
Oswego.
The committee on resolutions submit
ted the following resolutions which were
read by the newly elected secretary,
Weldon Shank of Canby, and were
unanimously adopted: Whereas, the
officers of the past year have so faithfully
performed their duties, Therefore be it
Resolved, That we thank them most
heartily for their efficient work.

accounts will be good. A big crowd is
expected as a dance will follow the pro

Washington's Birthday was celebrated
by a masque ball at Aurora, under the
direction of Mr. Emanuel Keil, and
quite a number from our town attended
as sqectaiors. Although the ball was
well-managed and nicely carried on and
a goodly number of spectators present.
yet there seemed to be a lack of interest
on the part of masquers as so few came
in costume. Tue grand march was led
by Mr. Kirkham of Aurora, who imper
sonated a darkey in fine Btyle, and Miss
Adams of Barlow, who represented a
tambourine girl, and was conceded to be
the best dressed and most bewitching
little lady in the ball-room. Miss Adams
was the only one from Barlow who went
in costume.
