An Ioterellnr henHlon Held la Ihl fit; Lrh( Priduy. , The Sunday school Institute for the Willamette aHuociation, held with the Oregon City Knptirit church . on Taeiday of thia week wan an fntereating and instructive meeting for charcb workerg. At the annual meeting of the aaeociation held In Portland I ant June it wan voted to hold quarterly Institute at different point in the aociation dis trict, and thli ia the firat one held ao far, Tho Inntitute wae preaiJed over by Rev. C. A. Notley in the forenoon and by Kev. A. W. Snvder in the afternoon and evening, tbeee gentlemen compris ing the committee on Sunday echool imititutei. The eeHfion opened at 9:30 a, m. with devotional exereineH, conducted by Kev. M, L. ftiiftf. Deacon II. M. Clinton, of Portland, delivered a very instructive and comprehensive addresa on the "Qualifications and Duties of the Super intendent." "Normal and Home In struction," by Kev. C. A. Nutter, of Portland, was followed by a general dis cussion of the topic by the minster and laymen present, a number of ladies also participating. The institute then ad jurned to discuss a bountiful repast nerved by the ladies in the Sunday school room, in whii.h every one present took an animated part. The afternoon session waa devoted to the consideration of "The Teachers' Meeting" by A. W. Snyder, district missionary; "What to get in a Sunday school to Make it Popular," by Kev H. B Turner, of Portland, and "What to Keep Out," by Rev. Gilman Parker, State missionary; "The Relation of the Sunday School to the Young People's Society.'! bi Rev. M. L. Rung; '-Black- boarding," by J. K. Groom; and the "Quis Box." At the evening service Rev. C. A. Woodv made an address on the "Seven Laws of Teaching," that waa greatly appreciated by the audience.. Law was defined as a rule for working a force, and teaching the causing of another to know what yon know. Men can use electricity lo light houses and run cars because they understand the law by which it works, though not a man of them under stands electricity itself. The seven factors of teaching: were given as the teacher, the pupil, the common language, the lesson or truth to be taught, the unknown to be mastered, the requiring of the pupil to think out in his own mind what you would have him learn and the review. This was followed by an add rets on "The Relation of the Sunday school to Christian Citizenship," by Rev. Ray Palmer, pastoi of the Second Baptist church, Portland. Mr. Palmer said in part: "Patriotism is the characteristic of a good citizen, the noblest passion that animates a man in the character of a citizen. It was this that glorified the monarchies of old. It was this that added one of the loftiest blessings to the Isrealities in their love and pride of Palestine. It was this that made Greece illustrious and made it possible for a Demosthenes to shine like a star of the first magnitude in the Hellenic horizon. It was this that gave to Rome trie elo quent Cicero and inspired the burning denunciation of Cataline. It was this torch of patriotism that lighted the lamps of freedom on many a monntain top and in many a valley in the world's history." "Christian patriotism may be defined as the higher and deeper form of the love of country, based upon the love of God and a supreme desire for the glory of Christ, leading one to seek to estab lish on earth the kingdom of God. This was the patriotism that thrilled the heaitsof our Pilgrim fathers in seeking to plant the tree of liberty on the virgin soil of the new world. - It was this that burned like a flame in the hearts of a Washington and a Patrick Henry, and moved to matchless eloquence a Daniel Webster, and is today the guidinv star ot many a man of God. to wliem home and native land are dearer than life. Christian patriotism is the only kind that will endure the shocks of time and outlive the decaying inspiration born of earth alone. Love ol country alone is not enough to constitute the highest patriotism . Love of the flag alone i does not necessarily make one entirely satis factory as a citizen. The true patriot sees back of his own beloved country that better country of which this is but a type ; and ' back . of the glorious flng of his country, that most glorious of all flags, the cross of the Lord JeBtig Christ, of which our national emblem is but a shadow." In speaking of the corruption of the average politician the speaker said the story was told of one of the ward politi cians of New York city who was so corrupt and lived so deeply in hell on earth that when he went to torment after death he sent back for his blankets ; he was about to freeze to death down there. A man to make a successful politician today needs neither brains nor conscience. The politics of today were described as an obnoxious cesnpool , into which, flowed the river of Morrno siirn, the river of foreign immigration, the river of rnm power, the river of an archy, and the river of monopoly. We are to developour youn peoole In to Christian patrts and teach them to love their country for country's sake, for the Lord's sake and for God's sake. Ouronly salvation is In the purification of the ballot box. We are to swear the rising generation by the sacred altars of our ancestors ; by the monuments they have left us; by their patriotic dust sleeping in onr national cemeteries. Swear them by the fadeless beauty of old glory and by the eternal stars that shine in glory to be men, free men, Christain men, To do or die rather than stain or sell their national manhood or deliver it over to be bound at the feet of the de mon of con option. At the close of Mr. Palmer's address, resolutions were pased thanking the Oregon City church for its hospitality and the speakers for taking part, when the institute adjourned. A. Painless Death. George Washington Sampson, a farmer living about three miles east of Clacka mas station, was found dead in his bed Tuesday morning. Corner Godfrey waa notified and went down with Dr. Powell, who examined the corpse, and finding that death had resulted from natural causes, no formal Inquest was held. The deceased had for sometime been troubled with a dropsical affection, and it is thought tne disease reached the heart during the night and death ensued quietly and painlessly while he was sleeping. Mr. Sampson waa 68 years old and leaves a widow, his fifth wife. The funeral was held Thursday fore noon at the family residence, conducted by Rev. M. L. Rugg. The 5abTille StadeoU. One of the best entertainment that Das oeen given in mis city in many a long day was the concert given at the Baptist church last Satnrday night by the nasnviiie btudents, under tne aus pices of the Y. M. O. A. The kind of music that is peculiar to the colored race, that animation, simplicity and soul moving inspiration which makes the Southern melodies, the most bewitching in the world, was produced by the students in a very delightful program occupying more than two hours. The vocal and instrumental talent of these clever people is unsurpassed and the unique character of their work but adds to the universal appreciation it de serves and receives . The Grandest Remedy. Mr. R. D. G reeve, merchant of Chil- bowie, Ya. certifies that he had con sumption, was given np to die, sought all medical treatment that money could procure, tried all cough remedies be could hear of, but got no relief; spent many nights sitting up in a chair; was induced to try Dr. King's New Discov ery, and was cured by use of two bottles. For past three years has been attending to business, and says Dr. King's New Discovery is the grandest remedy ever made, as it has dune so much for him and also for others in his community Dr. King's New Discovery is guaranteed for Coughs, Colds and Counsumption. It don't fail, Trial bottles free at Char man & Co.'s drug store. Regular size 50 cents and $1.00. An Acquaintance Social. An "Acquaintance social" given at the Congregational church last Friday evening was largely attended by mem bers and friends of the church and con gregation and thoroughly enjoyed from beginning to end. A general acquaint ance making with the pastor . and his family was the principal feature of the evening, in which the discussion of a light but delicious luncheon played an important part. The pastor's larder was enriched sev eral dollars by the generous gifts and donations brought in by members and lriends. i . Cronp Quickly Cured. Mountain Glen, Ark.

A. i ItSHlEETim "eld In The Baptist Church Afternoon. . Sunday The Y. M. C. A. mass meeting held ia the Baptist church Sunday afternoon at 2 :30 o'clock was attended bv an audience that filled the church. The meeting was under the direction of Secretary Johnson. Rev. A. J. Montgomery, of the Presbyterian church, read . the scripture lesson and Dr. T. W. Butler, of Congregational church, offered prayer. The Nashville Students had very kindly consented to sing and fayored the audience with a few choice selections. after which Rev. Montgomery spoke on the need of a Young Men's Christain Association for the young men of pnr city, who will be our leaders for tomor row. He said : "It is needed to train them for nsefulneas and because the dangers and temptations that surround young men are greater than those sur rounding any other class of people. We need the Young Men's Christain Associa tion because the gieat men of the world have achieved their victories in life's battle while in their early manhood. It was while youog men that David. Daniel, Sampson, Napoleon Bonepart, Henery Clay and Daniel Webiter acbeived their greatness. We need the Y. M.C. A. for business reasons, because Christian young men have opportunities for business that do not come to other young men. The Great Pennsylvania. railroad company has always favored the establishment of Young Men's Christain associations because it pays them from a financial standpoint.. Young men who are trained in the principles of Chris tianity make better employee than men not so schooled. We need it for the rea son that it takes a special organization to reach young, men. r The Y. M. C. A. is not a rival of the church, but simply another arm of the church. .After per mitting an institution of this kind to be established in our city we bare all but frozen it out by our supreme lndifferenc to its welfare." Dr. Butler spoke on the topic: "Can we Afford a Y. M. C. A.?" and took the ground that w cannot, since there are a great many places called saloons that we must maintain. .They occupy the best corners and seem to be a necessity to the young men of every -community. Back of these come the gambling dens, which appear to be a necessity to the life and happiness of so many young; men, and muBt be sustained. Alongside of these places come the tobacco stands. which our young men seem to need and must be kept up, .We must also sustain a bowling alley or two, where our young men can get physical exercise surrounded by a pure, moral atmosphere away from drinking places. Then a fool must come along and go over the falls on a Sunday afternoon in a barrel to show how big a fool he is. We must also maintain . theatres and prize fights. Can we afford all these things, which to so many seem to be necessities, and still sustain a Y. M.C. A.?" Dr. Butler then discussed the other side of his topic and showed very conclusively that we must sustain a Y. M. C. A. in the city if we have the good of the young men really at heart. An annoying and unmannerly feature, of an otherwise pleuant and profitable meeting, was the fact that just so soon as the darkies had finished their part of the program and Rev. Montgomery had begun his address, a number of promi nent church members and members of the ladies' auxiliary who are identified with what is termed the "Big Four" de nominations in this ' city, got up and tramped out, showing that they had came solely for the free concert given by the colored singers as an introductory to the regular program not and for the good of the Y. M. C. A. under whose aupices the meeting was held. Some of these people are usually loud in expressions of fidelity to the Y. M. C. A. and yet were unwill ing to pay the price of courtesv when their presence would have aided the Y. M. C. A. in a financial way ; neither did they disturb the "meeting" by leaving before ''Captain" Kellen's entertain ment at the falls was over and the au dience dismissed with the benediction.
