THE MORNING OBEGONIAN, MONDAY, JUNE 18, 1900.
THE DAY IN THE CHURCHES
HANDIWORK OP THE CREATOR.
SHOWN IX XATURE.
Sermon Preached Last Evening by
Rev. Dr. Hill of the Firt
Presbyterian Church.
At the First Prcsbj terlan Church last
evening Rev. Dr. Hill preached his ser
mon on "A Question for Commencement
iJeason," taking ae his text James iv:14,
"For what lc your life?"
He Introduced his sermon by referring
to his recent visit to Eugene. He said:
"It was my privilege to spend last Sunday
at the State University. "We are to be
congratulated that we have such an in
stitut.on within the boundaries of our
commonwealth. It was most gratifying to
see at the head of It a man of such Intel
lectual strength and attractive prsona.
lty. to meet a faculty so aiert and efficient,
to come In contact with a student body
so cnthuslast.c and earnest.
"I spent a royal half-day with the ven
erable professor of geology, who adds the
genius of a true teacher to tne humility
of a true student. As we separated, after
a long talk on the wonders of th.e visible
worla. Professor Condon said, I want the
people of Oregon to know that the occu
pant of the Chair vi geology In the State
Unlvcrsltj has always Impressed upon his
scholars ths fact that the rocks show the
handwriting of the Creator, and that no
study of geology Is complete which ignores
the Hock of Ages.' There were two things
wnlch specially Interested me In looking
through the geological museum. One was
that this state of Oregon Is so exceed
ingly rich as a field for a geologist. Some
of the most valuable specimens of extinct
animals ever unearthed have been found
along the John Day River In the eastern
part of the state. Scientists from the
East have taken tons and tons of valua
ble fossil treasures from here to enrich
the museums of Harvard and Yale.
"I was hown the bones of a three-toed
horse, such as once roamed this western
world. There may be seen the head of
an animal whose teeth combined those
of a hog and deer. Those fearful-looking
mastodons, pictures cf which we have
often seen, used to live in this very state
we call Oregon. I had always supposed
that camels were limited as to their habi
tat to lands far across the sea, but it has
been proved by means of fossil beds not
far awaj that at one time camels- wan
dered all over this western country from
Nebraska to Oregon. Anothe thing whl h
impressed me was a small piece of pine
baric Knonwlng that every specimen In
the collection must give a reason for us
presenpe I asked what It meant.
" 'Do you see those acorns stuck hre
and there in the holes drilled to the exact
size? Yes. 'Well, a woodpecker did that.
He first drilled the holes, then carried the
acorns and placed them snugly in the
holes, thus making provision for the "Win
ter. 'But do you think the woodpecker
is specially fond of acorn meat?' 'He
cannot bear acorns, but in the meat there
comes a kind of worm of which the bird
is very fond. So when his feast is all
ready, by a marvellous instinct the
woodpecker pecks open the shell and en
Joys his banquet.'
"As I heard from the fascinating ro
mance written in stone and wood, all giv
ing such unmistakable evidences of the
divine wisdom and power of God, I found
myself repeating the words:
Earth's cram'd with heaven
And everj- common bush aflame with Gcd.
But only he who sees takes oft his Fhoes,
The rest elt round It and pluck blackberries.
DO IT WITH THY MIGHT.
Sermon hy Rev. A. "W. Ackerxnan at
Congregational Church.
At the morning Pervice In the First
Congregational Church, the pastor, Rev.
Arthur W. Ackerman, preached from the
text in Eccleslastes, ixrlO. "Whatsoever
they hand flndeth to do, do It with thy
might."
He said In part:
"The unmistakable mark of the strong
man Is in the fact that he undertakes
his work, not In a slip-shod or half
hearted fashion, but he throws hlm-elf
lnto both his work and his play and .o
gets the most out of both. If you wish to
weigh your character or lift yourself Into
the range of better living, you must find
your willingness to give yourself to tho
work which you may have In hand. Jt
Is here that all creeds meet, and no man
is without his creed. Whatsoever thou
belicvcst. believe It with all thy soul;
and if thou canst not believe It with all
thy soul, then mayest thou question
whether it Is right fcr thee to believe
It at all. For men of every creed de
mand that a man shall give himself to
the service of that which he deems to be
right. Every creed has this spur to our
indolence, this goad to our carelessness,
this whip to our indifference. Here every
believer has his chance, for it Is within
the province of every man to give hin
self however small that gift may be.
And is it not time for us to infune Into
our religious life this spirit of the whole
man, that all our disputlngs and doubl
ings and negations may give way to a
whole-souled effort for the redemption
and moral uplifting of the race.
"There is a special fitness In this
message this morning, for 49 years ago
laat Friday this First Congregatloml
Church of Portland was organized, with
only 10 members, and tneh!story "of this
church, as It would be of every church
that is worthy of the name. Is summed
up In the loyalty to this enterprise as
part of God's kingdom in the earth, and
a necessary part, a loyalty which has
been manifested by the members In do
ing with their might what their hands
have found to do. Just 155 years ago
today, when the New England morning
came out of the East, General Gage, the
oommander of the British forces In Bos
ton, looked out to the heights of Charles
town, and was startled to see the place
that he had intended to fortify was al
ready occupied by swarms of men who
were armed and entrenched. "It was said
that he took his field-glass and looked
long and earnestly at a tall figure, pac
ing to and fro, on the earth works on
Breed's hill.
" 'Will he flghtr ho asked, as he low
ered the glass. Tes, sir, replied a by
stander, 'to the last drop of his blood
On the afternoon of that day 123 years
ago today the citizen soldiery proved the
truth of the answer. Four days later a
messenger bearing news of the battle
met General Washington 20 miles from
Philadelphia making his way north to
take command of the army. There was
one question that he wanted, to ask, 'Did
the militia fight? and when he had his
answer, he said: "Thank God; then the
liberties of the country are safe. There
was one question for the leader of tho
British, and the same one question for
tho leader of the Americans. "Will he
ilghtr And I think that today the one
question which we must consider con
cerning the future of this church, is,
Will he do that with his might which
his hands find to do?" What shall wo 6ay
to the hosts of evil? That Is all they want
to know. And what shall we say to our
"Lord, for that Is what he wants to
know."

Fourth of July Celebration at Sandy
Other "Vers Xotes.
GRESHAM. Or., June 16. The celebra
tion at Sandy on the Fourth promises1
to be a good one. All arrangements are
complete, including the amusement pro
gramme and other exercises. Music will
be furnished by the Aimes Gl e C ub. unCer
the direction of Professor W. D. Thomas.
Miss Jessie Gibbons will read the Dec
laration of Independence, while Hon. G.
E. Hayes, of Oregon City, will fly the
American eagle In an appropriate ora
tion. The celebration will close with a
ball in the pavilion.
Switch Completed.
The O. R, & N. has completed Its switch
to the chain elevator at Troutdale, and
will be ready to load ties In a very speedy
manner In a few days. Over S0.000 ties are
now in the Sandy awaiting shipment.
GrcNham Prosperous.
Many substantial improvements are
going on at Gresham, the latest business
ventures being a' new millinery store, a
barber shop, an ice-cream and confection
ery stand and a wagon shop. A tinware
and stove store Is lri contemplation, and
a newspaper Is one of the probabilities
Inside of a few weeks.
Brief "Votes.
Robert F. Bell, of Portland, has been
engaged to deliver the .Fourth of July
oration at the Troutdale celebration.
The Dillon road, near the 14-mlle post,
will receive attention by Supervisor Con
leyfl men in a short time. It will be Im
proved one mile north to a point near
Troutdale.
A. T. Well has begun the building of
500 rods of board fencing on his farm near
here. He will soon receive five Berkshire
pigs from the Hood fann, at Lowell,
Mass., and Is arranging to purchase other
blooded stock from Eastern stock farms.
The Beaver Creek bridge, on the Trout
dale road. Is being rebuilt with lumber
from one of the country mills. All the tie
teams have to cross It, and It needs fre
quent attention.
All the piles have been driven for the
false work of the O. R. & N. bridge at
Troutdale. Work on the spans will com
mence in a few days. The lumber is on
the ground, and is being framed ready to
be put in place.
Professor E. B. Houghton, principal of
the Troutdate School, left for Pennsyl
vania last week to spend his Summer va
cation. He will return in time to re
sume his duties in September.
Michael Donahue, foreman of Lillefoge
& Mathiot's mill, near Hurlburt, is very
low with an attack of heart disease, with
small prospects of recover"- He suffered
the attack one day last week while at
work In the mill.
Five flshwheels are now In constant op
eration near Rooster Rock, and the sal
mon run is very good. The fish are being
canned at the new cannery there, which
gives work to about 60 men, mostly Chinamen.
Social Conditions In Germany.
Philadelphia Telegraph.
For a long time past the religious hat
red of the Kulturkampf has ceased In
Germany. If the political conflicts be
tween Conservatives and Liberals have
ever been very serious, which Is doubt
ful, they arc no longer much more than
a memory. Nor Is Socialism much more
alarming. But the sharp, envenomed
light of the hour Is between the agrarian
and the industrial factions. It Is a strug
gle for life.

heliograph proved Its efficiency. The elec

the system Independent of sunshine and
fair weather, but the difficulty of having
it on hand in the field was then too great,
so other sources of light (such as Im
proved petroleum lamps), were used.
England, however, adhered to the hello
graph, and had great success In Its use
In India and in South Africa, in name
'cases for distances of more than 100
miles. Ordinarily, however, the hello
graph, using, as It doee, the sun's rays
as the source of light. Is limited to a
range of about 55 miles; but by means
of relay stations it can, of course, be
used to much greater distances. How
