Reception at the Cameron Seattle Actors Entertained. KE of the notable banquets of the 6eason was that given yesterday at the Cameron by Mr. M. Liberty. Cover were laid for five and no expense was spared, the cost per plate being $.V. Thus, it will be observed that for the amount Mr. Liberty lavished upon his little dinner party, another entertainer, such as Mr. Bryan, would be enabled to banquet the entire Oregon democracy with the conventional $1 per plate affairs. But Oak-street leaders have no patience with any function that Is tainted by even a suggestion of economy, 60 Mr Liberty really thought nothing of spending t25ft for a party of five. He makes that much bv merely turning ox-er his shovel for a few months. The dinner was preceded by a. little pinocle and poker soiree, held In one of the select Oak-street clubs. The. guests became so absorbed In their games as to overlook the arrival of the dinner hour but fortunately that estimable gentleman and officer, Captain Bruin, British at tache to the Cameron, called their atten tion to the hour and consented to escort them to the famous old hostlery. The banquet table was all In readiness and presented a charming appearance. The decorations consisted of rows of Hobos Amerlcanus prettily intertwined with unmown and vari-colored Hirsute Appendages. The menu was entirely of French dishes, the very best known to French culinary art. There was such tempting viands as feve a la mode, pain au beurre, fleche de lard and eau saum atre No oratory was indulged in. Shortly after dinner the guests paid their re spects to Mr Cameron while Mr. Liberty, with easy dignity, tendered his check for $2rO for the day's privileges. The guests were: Mr. E. M Brotham. Mr. George Brown. Mr. J. Johnson and Mr. (r. W. ' McFadden. r MENDS of Mr. Bertram McLaughlin, the veteran temperance worker, will be pained to learn that falling health necessitate.0 his retirement from active life. Mr. McLaughlin stepped over the hill, yesterday, to the Hotel Improvident where h expects to pass the remainder of his days in ease. The gentleman was one of the bitterest foes of liquor and punished It at every opportunity. fM ESSRS. H. W.

Dr. Norris R. Cox delivered an interest ing and Instructive lecture on Hawaii at the Unitarian Church last nght, under the auspices of the Unitarian Women's Alli ance. The lecture was illustrated with stereopticon views which were made by the speaker during his visit to the islands. A number of artistically colored marine views gave a good idea of the tropical sunsets. The fruits of the islands formed a. chapter of deep interest, and the de scription of the extensive sugar planta tions, rice fields, banana plantations and the pineapple industry held the close at tention of the large audience. Dr. Cox proved himself to be a close observer and a lover of nature. The substantial buildings of Honolulu and the beautiful private grounds of sev eral rich planters rounded out the views of natural eeenery. ' A WORD OF ADVICE.

Love Also Laughs at High Water Floods Compel Chauncey Lewis Gell to Buy Tiro Marriage Li censes, But Fall to Dampen His Ardor. HIG-H water played all sorts of havoc with the wedding plans of Chauncey Lewis Gell and his "intended." He had to buy two marriage licenses and to pay his hard earned dollars into the coffers of two states before the way was legally paved for the ceremony. Looking somewhat downcast, but still retaining a silver-llning-to-every-cloud expression. Mr. Gell appeared at the County Clerk's office yesterday after noon. He stood under the old wedding bell there for a moment and then asked, "Can I buy a marriage license here?" Deputy County Clerk "Cupid" Rose in formed him that he could, and soon the papers were made out. "How much?" asked Gell. "Three dollars," was the quick reply. "Well. I guess I'll have to pay up." said the prospective bridegroom, "but its pretty tough to have to buy two licenses to marry the same girl: Only yesterday I bought a marriage license over in Cathlamet. Wash., but we became frightened over the reports of high water and came over here. I was told that my Washington license was no good here, so I am getting this one. It has cost me $3. so far. . for licenses' alone. Wonder what the preacher will want?" Mr. Gell is to wed Miss Stella. Elmina Taylor.

Yesterday, during a conversation with Mr. Fields, Prasp told how he passed the time. The deputies in the various county' of fices are allowed a two weeks' vaca tion each year. Prasp was the last In the County Clerk's office to take a rest. He did not know where to go and only stay a week or ten days. At last he decided to stay at home but not to stay at home, after all. So the first two days he was at his mother's residence in Mount Tabor, and then he began . the tour. Thi next two days he was the guest of friends at Sun nyside: then followed another pair of days with Sellwood schoolmates: the next 4? hours were passed In Montavilla, and then came two days' life In Albina. By this time ten days of the vacation were up, and Prasp had not been on the west side of the river. So he decided to cross the bridge. He went direct to the home of a friend on Portland Heights and visited another two days. The last portion of the holidays was spent In Goose Hollow. During this time, Prasp states that he learned more about Portland than he had ever known. ARTIST NOT WIFE BEATER Richard Max Meyer Not Guilty of Striking His Spouse.

There, was a big delegation of farmer boys and girls at the old Llghtner home near Galena: 111., the day W. L. left for the "great wild West." Some tears were shed by the girls, while several of the boys brought big. red apples and gave them to the wanderer. Well, as he was leaving, young Llght ner yelled bak to his relatives and friends. "I won't come back until I have $100,000 to my credit. Other fellers made that much out West, and I will, too." After the grip had been packed, and final instructions given to Mrs. Llghtner regarding the care of the fowls on t:i Commissioner's peacock farm, the would be delegate happened to think of trie promise he had made regarding not re turning unlets he had a certain sized for tune.
