TWIN E TWINE rjrfrjrJri???r.rtrjrirjrirr? -rr r ir RLMIIKK IX hlKirUBE. Beaoty and Symctry of the Illble la New (ul. On a recent Hunday morning Key. A. J.Montgomery, paatorof the Presby terian church, preached a sermon on number in the bible, of which the follow ing is a synopsii: The text was I'salm 147 A, "lie tell eth the number of the stars," and Matt. 10:.'0, "The Tery hairs of your head are all numbered." Modern astronomy, by the aid of pho tography, has demonstrated that the number of stars is almost beyond com pulation. No one has aeiioasly at tempted to number the tiairs of the head. Yet these things are known to God. If he is (Jod, then he must necessarily have perfect knowledge of all things, and perfect knowledge implies that all distance be computed, all bulk measured ! and weighed and every individual nurn- ! bered. j Nature is built on the numerical principle. The science of chemistry is based on the well-know fact that atoms combine in neyer-varying numerical proportions. Eleven is the number of music. To produce the first note of the scale, do, requires 2(A vibralions per second. There is an interval between each of the seven notes of the scale and that interval is always a multiple of 11. Three is the number of the bee. The exit is hatched in 3 days, is fed 3x3 days, reaches maturity in 5x3 days. Its body is composed of 3 sections, has 2x3 legs, the foot is composed of 3 sections, the antennae has 3x3 sections, the nting bas 3x3 barbs on each side. It bas 2x3 wax scales and makes a honey cell with 2x3 siiji-s. In like manner, four is the num ber of the oak and five of the apple The same numerical principle per vades the entire bible. Wherever num ber is used in connction with divine or religious things it has significance. It is possible by the use of scientific meth ods t accurately determine this signifi cance. Three is the number of God. There are three persons in the Godhead, the four creatures in heaven cry, "Holy, thrice, once for each of the Trinity ; there are three orders of spiritual beings, namely, angels, cherubim and seraphim. God spoke from heaven to Christ while on earth three times ; at the baptism, on the mount of transfiguration and when the Greeks came to see him. Christ lias three offices; prophet, priest and king. There are on earth three wit nesses to Christ) the Holy Spirit, the water of baptism and the Lord's supper. Three is in a marvelous-way the number of the resurrection and crucifixion. The Savior was crucified at the third hour, darkness was over the earth three hours, at the end of 3x3 hours be expired, there were three crosses, and three inscrip tion on the atoning cross. On the third day Christ arose from the dead. While on earth he raised from death three per sons, namely, son of the widow of Nam, daughter of Jairus and Lazarus. Seven is the number of spiritual per fection. God rested on the seventh day, wherefore be set it apart to be a Sab bath of rest to man. In these latter days God has restored the Sabbath to its original time in relerence to man; thai is, the day in which he rested, while it was the seventh counting from the beginning of creation, yet as a matter of tact, it was man's first day of existence. The Jews were to observe the seventh day, but we are restored to the primeval day, which is the first ot the week. The number seven is used as a type of Christ in the Hebrew ritual. The seventh month was very holy, being ushered in with the feast of trumpets, signalized by the celebration of the feast of taber nacles and containing the great and mys terious day of atonement. . The seventh year was sabbatical. The 7x7 year was the year of Jubilee. There were seven deacons in the apostolic church. Epistles are by the Holy Spirit addressed to seven churches. In the judgment there are seven angels who carry out God's decrees, seven trumpets and seven seals. The Abrahamic covenant of our salvation was sevenfold. Ten is the number of ordinal perfec tion. Whenever it is used in the holy writ it signifies that the order of the thing to which it is applied is perfect. Thus it is to be expected that the law of the Lord which is perfect should be expressed in ten command ments, and the Lord's prayer, which is our perfect model of supplication, should contain ten clauses. The tithes denoted God's period claim to all we have and are. There were ten plagues, showing that God is perfect in judgment, as well as in righteousness. On ten occasions fire came miraculously down from heaven. There are ten parables of the kingdom, wherein the kingdom is lik ened to something well known to man. There were ten virgins in the parable, thereby signifying that the number of God's people is perfect. There are ten "I ams" of Jesus, such as "I am the the door," etc, Twelve is the number of governmental perfection. The cxliac is divided into twelve signs, and this division comes. from the greatest antiuuity. The circle, among all peoples, is divided into 30x12 degrees. There were twelve patriarchs, who founded tribes, showing the perfec tion of the Jewish tribal government. There were twelve judges. One Is not astonished, then, that Christ names twelve, no more, no less, apostle. It thereby teaches us the governmental perfection of the church of the living God. In heaven there are are 2x12 elders before the throne. There were twelve gems on the breastplate of the high priest. There are twelve founda tions of the New Jerusalem. The tree of life bears twelve manner of fruits. Christ could ha e summoned to his aid twelve legions of angels, because the government of heayen is perfect. Pastor Montgomery drew two leasons from this remarkable fact of the nse of number in scripture. First, we must admire and study the word ot God. It is wonderfully inspired. It will stand the most severe investigation. It has been on trial for ages, and the passing centuries have only added proof to its divine origin. Second, if it be true that the hairs of our heads are all numbered we must trust God's knowledge and love. Whatever comes to us is for our good. TUB 'FRISCO EDITORS. Some Comments About Oregon City aud The Sorthwest Generally. While enroute home the members of the California Press association passed resolutions of thanks to the citizens along their route for courtesies extended and especially to the board of trade of Oregon City for making their stay here so plea sant. From the Hedding Free Press the following is taken : "On Saturday afternoon we took the Southern Pacific train for home stopping a couple of hours at Oregon City that we might vytit the paper mills and electric light plant, which gives to Portland its light and power. The paper mills, located at the falls of the Willamette, is a credit to Oregon. Here great logs are cut np and ground Into pulp from which most of the pajer used by newspapers ef California as well as Oregon is obtained. Why California, with plenty of the same kind of timder, and abundant water power, cannot snccessiull manufacture herowu paper is a question that our slow-going capitslists ought to solve. It was stated that during the trial of Durrant so great was the demand for the San Kranisco papers that the capacity of the mill at Oregon City was doubled. ''Speaking ol home enterprise we vis ited the factory of the Portland cracker company, and were surprised to learn that at least one-half of their orders came from the Golden state. "A suspension bridge crosses the Will amette at Oregon City, and besides the paper mills, they have a large woolen factory and cement works. "Finally, we must say that the north west is a wonderful country of large possibilities and resources. It is the best watered country we ever visited while the people have not yet recovered from the collapse that followed the boom, and are struggling to pay the debts con tracted during the boom times, yet with such splendid resources the state of Washington must press forward to pros perity and plenty, and as for Portland, Bhe is well able to take care of hersnlf, peopled as she is with men of energy and business sagacity." The Greatest Nation On Earth. ' "The value of timber yearly cut in the United States is double that of the output of all our mines" ; "One-third of the pop ulation of this country are church mem bers"; "It costs $6t8.32 every minute during the year to run our Government" ; "Cnole Sam's farms constitute one-fifth of the National wealth"; "Nearly one- half of the 8,000,000,000, letters making up the worlds annual mail, belong to the United States." These are but instances of the thousands of wonderful facts about every phase of the life and progress of our country, from an illustrated article on "The Greatest Nation on Earth,' by llham George Jordan, to appear in the July number of The Ladies Home Journal. The article pictures, in a novel way. America's vast area, her matchless re sources, boundless wealth, tier marvelous development, and shows how the United State, leads the world.

One of the most pleasing musical events given in On-gon City for some time past was the concert at the Congre gational church Tuesday evening by tl Y, M. C. A. chorus, aisisted by Oregon City and Portland talent. The program was under the manage ment of Mrs. J. II. Strickler and it waa carried out without a hitch or fault, and reflected much credit upon Mrs. Strick ler, who has shown herself to be a director of more than average ability. The thirty-seven voices in the Y. M. C. A. chorus, blended very harmoniously and their time was very good, and their rendition was excellent, considering that many of the singers were young people who had had little experience on the stage. This chorus, though organized bul a few months, has nnder the direc tion of Mrs. Strickler, taken rank as a musical organization that ia an honor to Oregon City, and a credit to the young ladies and gentlemen composing it. The program for the evening opened with "On the Sea" a selection from "Mendelsshon", which was given in a spirited manner by the chorus. This was followed by a solo, "Beware" from Perring, by Mrs. Strickler, which waa sung in this lady's most pleasing style. MissGwilt, of Portland, then favored the audience with a solo, which earned for the singer a bearty encore, to which she bowed her acknowledgements. The next number was a solo by Dr. J. II. Miller, which was rendered in very g'Xd shape. A pleasing varation to the program was Indian club swinging by Mitis Anna Bebb, and so graceful did the young lady go through the intricate movements that she was greeted with the most hearty applaue. A solo and chorus was then given by Mrs. Strickler and her singers which won for them hearty applause. Miss Uwilt agiin favored the audience with one of her charming solos which greatly delighted the audience. A trio by Mrs. Olson, Mrs. Ganong and Mrs. Strickler, came next and those well known and favorite singers ot Oregon City were received with every mark of favor by the audience. The Indian club swinging of Prof. Frank Brows, the well-known athlete of Portland elicited a generous applause. Miss Kate Wards in a well rendered solo gave evidence that she was one of the rising young singers of Oregon City. The evening- j entertainment cloeed with duet by Mrs. Strickler and Mattie Draper the chorus being carried by the class, which was received by the audience in such a manner as to prove that it was one of the best numbers of the program. Owing to illness, Miss Minnie Kuertia was nnable to be present and give the solo for which she was announced, and the solo by Mr. Quackenbush, had to be ommitted, owing to this gentleman hav ing been called to California. The piano accompaniments were given by Miss Mattie Draper in a well executed style. The proceeds of the evening wll be applied toward the expenses of maintain ing the Y. M. C. A. rooms and the management of the institution feel under nianv obligations to those who took part in the entertainment tor the generous help. The Declaration of lndepeudance. In an historical article recalling the destruction of our National capital by the British forces in lSH.Clifford Howard in the July Ladie's Home Journal will bIiow that Dolly Madison, the most beloved and popular woman of her day, waa cour ageous and fearless in the face of grave danger. In the mad stampede - from Washington that preceded the invasica by the British troops, Dolly Madison was the last to seek safety in flight, and her final act before quitting the White House, as the enemy advanced, was to seize the' Declaration of Independence and carry it with her to a place of safety. As the White House was Immediately afterward looted and burned by the Brit ish, Mr. Howard declares that but for brave Dolly Madison the priceless parch ment would baye been destroyed.
