HOMENEWS.
Jesse Shepherd will mve anotlier
grand concert on Suurjay evening next.
James A. Ward will be the reoipteut
ot a lustier) l baiuruay evening at -Sew
MarKutinwter.
Mr. J. J. Wallace, the popular char
aeter aetor, sailed for San Francisco lust
atifHlay ou tlie "Adoou."
Rev. Mr. May's lecture Sunday even
Iok at tlie Uetb Israel Synagogue was
well attended, lie liundleu Ills subject,
"The Intlueuce of Education," in an
able manner.
Mrs. Dr. Burr is buildlnc up an ex-
teuttive practice in 1'ortlaud. She is of
the Homeopathic School, anil Is the
only lady physician of this order in the
city. Adherents of Homeopathy would
do well to consult her.
"Little Eva," who has been the prime
attraction at the Xew Market Theater
in Uncle Tom's Cabin durinr the week.
is the daughter of Mrs. Trengrove, of
uh Ilert dramatic troupe. Tue child is
but six years old, yet she performs the
part perfectly.
An organization called the "Willam
ette Bridge Company" was effected in
this city last Saturday for the purpose
of constructing a bridge across the Wil
lamette from the foot of Oak street to a
point opposite. The capital stock was
placed at $150,000, In shares of $100 each.
All orders sent to O. R. Hamilton,
agent of IbeCbiekering piano, Portland,
will be promptly attended to by Mr. V.
L. Lancaster, a practical man late with
Cliiefcering & Sons, Boston. Send in
your orders early, so that you can be at
tended U on Mr. Lancaster's regular
trips through the country.
Mr. Frank G. A bell, of San Francisco.
has reopened the photographic rooms of
Boeeo and Megler. First-class work of
all kinds at greatly reduced prices.
Children's pictures a specialty. Cloudy
weather the best for photographs. Cards,
three dollars per dozen; Cabinet size,
five ami six dollars per dozen.
Mrs. Dr. Murray, who has already be
come a prime factor in the medical Hue
In our midst, has added a new luster to
her fame as a disciple of Fsculapius by
extracting a large tuinor from the body
of Mrs. G. W. Cary, of this city. The
patient, who was in an exceedingly crit
ical condition, has entirely recovered.
Miss H. Menefee has opened a sample
store and agency for the purchase of la
dies dreee goods at the corner of Fourth
and Yamhill streets. She receives 100
satnnies monthly from London, Paris,
and New York, which ladies are invited
to eall and examine. Twenty per cent,
can be saved by purchasing goods at
this agency.
Last, but by no means least In the
line of professional women, comes our
own Dr. B. A. Owens, an Oregonian
out and out, who lias builded up, first a
competence and then a medioal educa
tion through her own efforts, and who
Is now a successful practitioner of the
first order. Thus one by one are the
citadels of the skilled professions being
sapped and ruined by the efforts of fem
inine genius, which is destined to halt
at no obstacle, and be content with
nothing short of joint possession of the
entire domain over which joint domin
ion was given by the Architect who
created man male and female.
We learn that the "one more unfor
tunate" who died last week from the
effeetsof drunkenness and debauchery at
St. Vincent's Hospital, was taken in
and eared for by Mrs. Boggs, as an act
of charity, after tlie poor creature had
been left to die without the aid of priest
or jiersou. Mrs. Boggs keeps a lodging
house, and is a bard-working woman,
who, we are told, does not deserve the
censure east upon her by tbe city press,
the New Northwest included. It is
not the province of this journal to wrong
man or woman. The tatter's way, if
compelled to struggle for a livelihood,
is hsrrd euough at best, and the blessed
truth is always bad enough about even
tbe best of both sexes.
Tbe excellent Weber piano used bv
Jesse Shepherd at his wonderful oou-
oert ou Sunday eveuiuc is the nronertv
of Professor Prentice, who makes the
sale of this splendid instrument a spe
cialty in uis large &nu rapidly increas
log business. The tone, power, and
eownase of this piano are simply mar
velous. As you listen tojue soft, ex
quteito harmony that wells from it in
rippling melody, hearken to the musi
cal thunder, now loud and near, and
again feint and retreating, till the rum
bling melts away into tbe echoing and
tar-oft air, you wonder which is most
worthy of praise,, the human anomaly
whose performance is a mystery, or the
man-made Instrument whieh seems to
possess a soul. If you want a niano co
and see Prentiee.
We are sorry to note the slim audi
ences of the past week at New Market
Theater. Monday and Tuesday even
ings tlie old but popular drama of "Un
cle Tom's Cabin" was rendered in fair
style. Weduesday "Uncle Ned" Deuvea
received a benefit, one, we regret to say,
which was not of a. very substantial na
ture. On this occasion three acts of
"Uncle Tom's Cabin," followed by a
mechanical contrivance showing tbe
maneuvering of the ships "Alabama"
and "Kearsarge," and the sinking of
. the former, the whole concluding with a
laughable farce entitled "The Happy
Man," constituted a good entertain
ment. Next Saturday evening Mr.
Ward will be the recipient of a benefit,
when tbe Irish drama of "Iushavogue"
will be presented, in connection with
other attractions.
The mystery of melody to which the
fortunate holder of tickets for Jesse
Shepherd's grand concerts is treated Is
not to be decor i bed on paper. You can
only feel It in the soul. Mr. Shepherd
claims to produce the marvelous music
of the spheres, to which we listen as If
J""0', through the medium of spir
itual inspiration; but it matters not to
us as to whence It oometu or whither it
tV ,ti?f..f,,,,y Indescribable.- Un
der his skillful manipulation the piano
becomes a thing of iife,or, rather, of
many lives. It gives a solitary note
of warning as a prelude, which is an
swered back by a cballeoKe ia rulu.
bliog bass, followed by sharp, explo-ive
utterances of melodious defiance that
soon briug on a musical combat to
which you listen with closed eyes aud
eurantured senses. Tbe walls seem tn
ne! I away, tbe roof vanishes, piano and
performer evaporate in tbe mists of
your imagination, and you are ready to
forget that you are mortal. Then comes
forth suddeuly the warbling melody of
a vocal' opera; aud now, before your
mental vision sits, not Jesse, butPatti,
Nihsen, and a dozen of the renowned
vocalists of the long ago. It is tbe art
of centuries, culled from Italy, Greece,
Germauy, Turkey, England, and France,
uuu uruugui in one uouod human vol
ume to our very doors; and however
sceptical the world may be as to its
origin, do one denies its Inspiration
Mr. bbepherd will remain but a short
time on tbe 1'aoiue Coast, as he has Im
portant engagements among tbe Euro
pean nobility, before whom he baa often
given concerts.
A CARD AND I'KOSl'EtTII.S.

DR. WARNER'S IMPROVED HEALTH CORSET.
A TWTIMOMAL OP A I.EADINO PHYSICIAN OF
PORTLAND IN KBOAKD TO UK. WARNlUtto IM
PROVED HEALTH COHORT.
Nothing is more Important for Ladles, single
or married, In regard to health, bodily devel
opment, preservation and protection, than a
good fitting corset. In the selection of the first
corset for a young lady, tbe physician ooght to
be consulted, and a lady, single or married,
should wear none but those recommended by
a thoroughly qualified physician.
A bad fitting or too tight laced corset Is often
the cause of early decay, curvature of the sntae,
heart disease, consumption, falling of the
womb, hardening and total destruction of the
lacteal glands, cancer of tbe breast, miscar
riage, congestion of tbe bruin, epilepsy. Ills,
and dyspepsia. This, I think, shows clearly
and distinctly bow important It Is to select a
good corset. A married lady, with a bad cornet
during pregnancy, suffers bell torture, and
gives birth to a sickly child.
To my knowledge, there is but one corset
which I can recommend, and this is the only
one which a mother should select for ber
daughters and a lady should wear.
Dr. Warner, a physician of high standing
and reputation, has, after a long and careful
study. Invented a corset which combine util
ity and beauty, and in wearing Ibis one a lady
will avoid all the bad cooaequences liable to be
produced by any other corset.

DAVID AND ANNA MATSOi
By .A.liprUl Scott Duiii-wnj-,
Editor "New Northwest," Portland, Oregon,
- WITH BEAUTIFUL ILLUSTRATIONS, AND ELEGANTLY BOUND
A new epic, from a riaoroas and skillful pen, on a subject which occupies a large place in tbe
social discussions of the day. Tbe subject is taken from Mr. WhlUier's short narrative or "Da
vid Matson," with whleh tbe reader hi probably familiar. David Matcon, a Merrlmac sailor,
waseaptured by the Algerlnes (during one of bis voyages) and sold Into slavery. After many
years he obtained release and was on his way to tbe home of his boyhood, when be'fell In with
his old employer,' who Informed lilra that his wife, believing him dead, had remarrid, and,
stunned by his trouble, he surrendered all elalm as husband and father to the man who bad
stepped Into bis place, and departed. Mrs. Dunlway has aaund a tlie me In this story with
which her heart beats In warmest sVmpathy, and her lines flow on In the smeoth cadence In
dicative or the fullest accord. She pictures the gentle, tender, trustful Anna and the wily, eov
etous Pelatlah In vtvkl colors; and how years of poverty and longing, and the cries of the bun
gry boys,eompelled poor Anna to yield to Pelatlah's Importunity,
"Itlse, rejotee.
My poor, nn mated dove," sakt be,
" And look henceforth for love to me."
A tittle further on he says:
" Become my wife and you shall be
Made happy through prosperity,"
Wlillv, If she persists In declining bis advances, wolf-like, be threatens to abandon ber to star
vation and eohl. And this Pelatlah was a "deacon,"
" In exhortations deep and load."
Tbe wanderings of David, his captivity, release, hapless interview with Pelatlah, discovery ol
Anna's second wifehood, and his sad going back to Algeria, are all told so pathetically that our
ieellngs ai e deeply en rioted. No one, with any im sentiment, can read tbe poem without be
ing thoroughly stirred. The illustrations are In admirable keeping with the passagei they are
designed to portray, ami a One engraving of tbe author Is a attlng frontispiece. The subject
spirit, Are and passion of the poem should give It an extensive reading, aside from tbe interst
wnleh the literary reputation of the author ranst awaken in it. As a specimen of book-making
tbe volume Is certainly beautiful, and would adorn any center-table.
We know ot no work so well adapted as a present. It Is printed on heavy tinted paper
and most beautifully bound, price, !4 60; full gilt extra, $2 SO. For sale by book-sellers, or
