He contlnti ally went to their hous-ss, ate witn them "and afcsociated daily with these people, the despised of the upper classes. Christ recognized their temptations and taught Hbem bow to resist, and by his holj. ex ample showed them that they could live aright. But the scribes and Pharisees disapproved of this and murmured against him for thus associating with what they considered the outcasts of the earth. Christ answered them then with the lncontrovertable argument of the good shepherd who considered the welfare of each individual sheep. "Man naturally is religious, and there is a natural religion outside the church. The disposition to serve God is inborn in man, and he has a natural distinction between right and wrong, for his Creator has given flim the reason to judge thereby. t?wm the one sinner who has strayed Lron? the Shepherd's fold is viewed with J wr. n -vnrr? nt dcti i rScus of i lc?cal a-uronce T? i V- trufc- Afterward that tl'tf TTC fi V ,l, w,. t- iv n i t jv-.j-, ".-.-.- tender compassion by him, and he leaves tho nlnety-and-ntne while he goes after him. In this parable we are brought face to face with Christ's broad sym pathy for each elnner, and. with the fact of his sreat mercy for them. "The persistency of his mercy is an other fact which 4b forced upon us, for the text says that he searches until he finds him. His sympathy with the lowly wham others despised was truly beauti ful. Too often we hold ourselves aloof from the sinner, thinking a touch from him would be contamination, but 'twas not so with the Savior. It was not be neath him to speak to those who had gone astray or to converse with them on the higher life. Can we do better than to follow his example? And he-does not chastise the stricken slnnerj but fokes him in his arms and bears him out of his woe. What a contrast is this compared with the attitude of the world toward one who has sinned! They turn from him with scorn and derision and condemn him to deeper sin and suite, ing. In our lowest depths he hearkens unto bur cry cf distress, and there is "rejoicing in heaven over the raving of a lost soul. Jesus docs not rejoice over a sinner as a i'inher but as" a soul for immortality and the reat compassionate heart of the Father goes out in love to that soul. " hen he finds a sinner who Is responsive to his love his joy is great. ' "But what of repentance? "We are apt to mlttake its meaning. It is not a dis like of sins; there arj many who do not like tlie taste of liquor, but are often un der its influence. Repentance is a com plete changu of heart and minai and a turning away entirely frewthe Old evil life. Repentance imbibes and carries with it conversion. We are often brought to this state through nn awakened con--scicace,. God brings ub to a sense of oui shortcomings bj' stirring Up our con science, and thus awakens Us from our apathy to. Christian life. Until the pur-.-ulng love and mercy of Jesus Christ jenches us we wander blindly frdm the .lght path. "And what about the ninety-and-nlne just persons who need no repentance and can.be left a'.onc?

Work of Clearing: Gr.ounds Com menced and Construction. -Will Proceed at Once. The Portland Creamatory Association has secured tw.o aqres on the Oregon City Railwaj', on the High bluff overlooking the Willamette River, between the" old city boundary and Sellwood, for the erec tion of buildings for tho Incineration of human bodies, and under the direction of Manager Frank Gibson the work f clear ing the grounds has been commenced. The" grBunns are partly on the bluff and they extg'ri'd partly Qown the bluh to the river. The ldwS'r dge Is nearly washed by the water when- the river Is high. NEW HOME dF THE - Vv-W V v '"- V" voCw 'il--iv - ALBANY. Or., 6ct. 14. The new homo of the A.lco Club, which was formally opened las. Week, la a handsome two-story structure, having nfne commodious rooms, and a base lrto.1t, with four bowling- alley. The building: Is elegantly furnished at a cost of nearly $2200, Including an ?S0O piano. The organization' has a membership of 90, composed of the leading business and professional men of the city. Its official taster Is as follows: B. W. I.anpdon, president; J. .8. Van "Winkle, secretary; Edwin Btorie, vico-prealdent; J. C. Irvine, treasurer; H. H. Hewitt, E. B. Townsend, E. D. Cusick, G. A. TVest&ate and F. M. French, trusteeSi At present there Is a nat Ifi front. At the south end tho Oregon City Railway makes a turn as It comes from tho MI1 Waukle road and approaches the old City View Park. It seems an ideal location for the purpose. Several men have been at work burning the old decayed stumps and debris. The intention Is to leave tho natural "shrubbery and fir trees as they stand and remove the stumps. Buildings and Improvements contem plated at once will cost about $35,000, al though Mr. Gibson said the final ex penses before the plant Is finished, ac cording to the plans, will not be less than $103,003. No debts will bo' Incurred and the work will proceed as the association has funds. Mr. Gibson said the grounds will be cleared and the furnace put up at once. The furnace Will stand at the south end. There will be winding walks and the tracts will be made beautiful and attractive. The sldo fronting the river will be terraced. Surrounding tbe main portion on th& east and north sides will bo a stone wall, In which there will be niches for the ashes of Incinerated bodies. A handsome chapel will stand near the furnace, where funeral services may be held. Manager Gibson has had. much ex perience with crematory construction, having put up several others. Tho Port land plant will be somewhat" different from that of other cities, and will em bracn Improvements. Emmet B. Williams is president of the association and Judge Bellinger, whose son, "Victor, was cre mated at San Franclsco.'fs vice-president. R. H. Miller, architect, has prepared tho plans for the furnace, chapel, burial wall and grounds. Serviceable Fire Company, In placing the Highland chemical en gine on Union avenue and Alberta Btreet some time ago It was thought a waste of money, and it was really a political move at the time, but it has become a very Bfervlceablo company. It covers a wide ana now growing district. For its ser vices there are frequent calls In that neighborhood, and It Is called out as often aa any chemical In the city, al though it responds mainly to still alarms, as well as to general alarms. It was cut out for a time, but was put back Into service. Within a short distance Of the Highland engine house there are 2d new dwellings under construetldft, rang ing In cost from $500 to $2503, besides a number that were finished In the early season, so that since the engine was placed oil duty in that neighborhood be tween 40 and rt) new dwellings have been put up. which this engine largely pro tects. When the Pennoyer administration purchased the property It was agreed that the hall on tho second floor sh5"uid re main for the use ' pf the public. The building was refitted as an engine house, with the quarters of the permanent men, in the back part, on the lower floor, and tho hall above was fitted up as a place for public affairs, all at the expense of the city. The hall on the second floor is a fine one. provided with a stage and scenery for local theatricals. It is open to all parties for political meetings and to the churches for their services. The nuestlnn now Is rnlsd whether thp rltv !k j bound indefinitely to maintain such a public hall In an engine house. The build ing is a large one and could be ar ranged for the quarters of the perma nent firemen Instead, of using the damp and uncomfortable rooms back of the chemical and horses. The building Was formerly a public hall for that commu nity, and the city made some kind of an agreement when It purchased the prop erty to maintain the hall, but the time is riot far off when It will require the en tire building. Montnvllla School. Professor Leatherman, principal of the Montavilla school, reports, at the close of last week, an attendance of 35 pupils over the attendance for the same time a year ago. This increase has occurred In the lower grades mainly, although there has been some Increase In the higher. The four rooms on the-lower floor have nearly 200 pupils, who fill the rooms above the sanitary point In another year the Mi rectors may have to mako some outside provisions for these grades, if the In crease continues. Thero are eight teach ers In the building and all are fully oc cupied. Will Lay Pour-Inch Main. The water committee wiil probably lay a four-Inch water main 6n East Twetlty eighth' street, from East Ankeny to York street, when the improvement under .way there Is finished. It will not be long be fore the Improvement will be completed, as about three-fourths, of tho work Is finished now. Dr. C, H. Raffety, of the water committee, was over the street last week and says the committee will proba bly decide to lay a four-inch main. .A number of new houses have already been built on the street and others are to be built when water can be had. Sixty-one Pnp"ll "Were Ont. In consequence of the scarlet fever scare at Sellwood 61 pupils were absent during the past week from the school at that place. Professor Edward Curtis, princi pal, said yesterday theso pupils were away tbxough.apnjeluyiaipaiaail no on. account of. sickness. Careful . watch had been kept by the teachers, sd that fur ther spread of tne disease snoufd not' tako place throush the school. The disease' has not token a serious form, and there is difference of opinion as to tho number of children down with it, but there seems a much less number than first reported. Tho health officer reported he found six cases. The prevalence of the disease has Interfered Very much with tne scnooi, ;uui now that .it is known the spread Is not extensive the apprehension will subside and pupils will be sent back to school this week. Tnrned tlie Blade Aside. Lula Upton, the 7-year-old daughter of a farmer named William Upton, living near Mount Scott, while running with an open knife, slipped and fell forward on the open blade, which, fortunately, was turned aside by a buckle, and she re ceived a severe cut on her stomach. Her parents were very much alarmed and brought her to the city, and had the Injury examined by a physician. It was superficial and of small consequence. The ALCO CLUB AT ALBANY buckle saved the child's life, as it pre vented the knife blade being driven into the vitals. Suburban Railway Extension. Residents on the Base Line road and southward aro rejoicing over the comple tion of the North Mount Tabor branch of the City h Buburban Railway from its former terminus' in North Montavilla to the south end of Hlbbafd street. Track laying was finished last week and .cars have since been running from Pbrtiarid through to the Base Line road. A wide district is thus provided with car facalii ties, and people will no longer be com pelled to climb to the summit of Mount Tabor to catch a car for Portland. Enst Side N6tes. The Board of Mercy, organized at the Stephens school a year ago, hasresumed meetings at Gruner's Hall. The object is to teach children to be merciful to dumb beasts and birds. Much good along this lino was accomplished last year. Meet ings will be held once a month through the school year. Sneak thieves seem to have become nu merous on tbe" East Side. They pick up from back yards whatever articles they find and sell them to the second-hand stores'. A man living in the Harrington block left his ax out for a few moments and when he returned it was gone. It was recovered from a Union-avenue sec j ond-hand store shortly afterward.

Gold Stttndkrd kt the Very SarJifi Of I Material Progress. Charles A Cofiant. 1 There is one lmpdrtant prerequisite id financial power in which legislation plays an, important part. This Is In giving per manency to the standard of value. It has been ponted out so often that it has become a byword, but Is none the less true, that London owes much of her pre dominance in the world of finance to the fact that a contract for the payment of money In London has meant for nearly a century one thing, and no other. A contract for the payment of a given num ber of pounds sterling has meant the do livery of a certain weight In go'd. Ihe creditor having a debt coming to him in London has been subject to no uncertain ty as to whether he would be tendered Irredeemable paper, depreciated silver, or gold coin adjusted to some new standard. When the Bank of France was author ized to suspend specie payments in 1870, and when by the course of events its op tion to pay either gold or silver became a., option to diminish tho Value of a gold obligation, financial Supremacy fled from J Paris: Trifling as iriight be the premium ( upon gold caused by refusal to pay It On demand for bank notes, the difference" was sufficient to drive from Paris to Lon. don the great operations of International exchange which turned for their, profits upon minute fractions of percentages, London, by constituting a free market for gold and adhering to a fixed stand ard, without variableness or shadow of. turning, has drawn to herself the com mand of the world's exchanges. The United States has recently planted herself by the side of other great com mercial states by prescribing that a given weight of gold shall henceforth consti tute the metallic standard. If this dec- laratlon is established beyond dispute or probability of change, it equips this coun try itl this respect to compete with Lon don f6r the control of the exchanges of the world. The fact that the country de clared for the gold standard In 1896, and that she has now put that declaration into law, had much to do with the pros perity of the last few years. If evidence were needed that the adoption of a fixed monetary standard and the abandonment of a fluctuating standard meant much for the coUhtry adopting such a policy, it is demonstrated also by the experience of RUssiai Adopting the gold standard only In 1895, and putting it In force complete ly only as recently as 1S97 foreign capital poured Into tho country for industrial de velopment at "such a rate that stock com panies were organised within Ave years with a combined capital of more than 1600,000,000, or more than within, the entire 0 years before.

Limbs Subjected to Doable tbe Heat of Boiling: Water Without "CooJxinsr" the Flesh. The latest discovery in medical science is baking people alive for tne cuie of various diseases. Many who have nor. heard of this method of curing disease will be astonished to learn that a bakery of the kind mentioned has bean estao lished in Portland. The Idea 13 not alto gether new, and it has been a not un common thing for years for newspapers to roast alive persons for whom uch treatment was desirablo, and In the days of ancient Rome the hot air bath was pat ronized by the nch and Intelligent cl-uses. The fact that a bakery has been estab lished here will provo a boon to a num ber of persons who have been suuer.ng from being "slack baked," for they can, now get into the oven and come o..t completed. The modern medical bakery is able to develop a temperature of 4a degrees or even higher, and the most wonderful thing Is that pcrson,s can he baked In ovens heated to this degree, or 183 degrees above the boiling point of water without danger to their systems. The Bake ovens arc in the form of metal cylinders, some for the entire body, others for the arms or legs. They con sist of three cylinders separated by spaces of an inoh or two, lined with as bestos, etc.,- arid with a mat of fibrous magnesia for the body or limb to rest In, It having been found that this material will not burn one's flesh even when heat ed to 4C0 degrees. An old-time citizen who had tried this baking for lumbago was dlscuhs'ng the cure yesterday With another who had had his leg baked to cure rheumatism. Sev eral persons who had not before heard of the baking cure listened to their talk with great Interest. They had both been cured of their ailments for the time be ing at least, and were firmly of the opin ion that these human bakeries were just what was needed In this county In the winter time to dry the moisture out of one's bones. Tho man whdse leg had been baked remarked that his statement of the tem perature submitted to Was questioned by a neighbor; sd at one of his bakings h's wife put a pan of doUgh in the oven with the leg and when they were taken out the dough .was baked brown. It must not fee BUpposed by am' one that this is a joke, fdn thero are bakeries of this kind iri many places fn the United States, and they are being Introduced into England and orie is flow running in Port land under a "forced drought" The ovens are heated by Bunsan gaa burners and the temperature cart be raised to 500 degrees if desired. A circulation of air is kept up by fneans of tbe spaces be tween the cylinders and old moisture from perspiration is carried off. Of course when a man is baked hla head is left dut of the oven. To the fact that the heat applied Is kept dry by reason of all moisture elng carried oiit ty the circulation of air throdgh th ovens it is owed that a person can withstand such high tempera tures without being cooked. One of the interested listeners said this was the most satisfflctdry thing about the whole business ft) him. He had long ago made up his mind that he was fo e ordaified id a l6ng residence In Had-s. and it had always" been d puzzle to him why peopie did not burn Up there. He now understands it, arid sees why thero is iot a drop of water there. The hoat supplied is "dry" heat and at present rates for coal is never likely to be raised higher than 500 degrees", which people who have tried baking say produces a feeling of mental exhilaration. There fore the absence of moisture in Hades is a wise and beneficent provision, a sort of tempering the heat to the singed limbs, as It were. It may be added here that the prin cipal hot air hospitals In the United States are in New York. Philadelphia and Chicago, and the principal forms of dis ease in which the baking treatment Is used al'6 gout, rheumatism. Inflammation, lithaeniid, obesity, oedema and all forma of pain, congestion, neuralgia and even psychic. Some 3000 persons have already been baked' In this country and some very remarkable cures have been reported. TreeaGrowIns; Progress In Kansas. Chicago Tribune. Fifty years hence Kansas and the states planting trees today will be supplying California find the Coast states with tim ber". One need not be particularly gifted with foresight to predict such an event. It is an indisputable and lamentabl; fact that at the present rate of forest denuda tion on the Pacific Coast, it will be but a short time before all the timber on that section of the Coast Is gone.

The Present Condition of Thlnga Fnrnlsb.es All That Are Needed. Washington Post (Ind.) As a matter of fact, the existing condi tions, in, finance, comoierce and ind s try, furnish the Republican party v.1 h all the material that it needs or that It can creditably utilize. Mr. McKInley's Administration has, up to this moment, been attended by extraordinary and opu lent achievement. The conduct of our financial affairs has been crowned with a success of which every substantial cittizen Is, according to his visible interest, a beneficiary. We know of no department of legitimate ac tivity which has not thriven during tho past three years. Our manufacturing en- ' terprises have exhibited a remarkable growth and a corresponding prospeilty. , Agriculture was never so well-established ( and so bountifully rewarded. And, what is more to the purpose, this vast wave of profit and encouragement has covered the entiire country North, i South, East amd West alike. The .cotton planters, from Tennessee to Texas, gaze upon rich 'harvests. The cotton mills o the Carolinas. Georgia and neighboring states have been converted into gold mines. The farmers, irom Ohio to tho Pacific, have paid off their mortgage, are at last lndepencnt and now .? before them an era of assured prosperity. Labor Is everywhere in demand at ex cellent wages. Capithl finds remunera tive employment on j every hand. The whole country is a qee-hlve and henost effort has its sure regard. As we see the matter, the Republican orators have no need ito go a step beyond these eloquent, oonvSidng facts. Here, In a nutshell. Is the; record of tho Re publican Administration under Mr. Mc Klnley,. so far as It touches the substan tial Interests of the American people. It Is not made up of conjecture, prejudice, partizanship, or any other manifestation of empty tomfoolery. Wfll Everybody Ever- Have EnonffhT PORTLAND, Oct 14.
