With this diflicult instrument Miss Carrie Short, the organist, accomplished much and won praise from all who had the pleasure of hearing her. tn every way the evening was a decided success. In point of attendance there was nothing to be desired, for the church was literally crowded, and chairs were placed In the aisles to seat all. The program did not drag. The isnglng of Mrs. A. A. Finch and of Mr. William Gratke wai especially good, also, and aided much in the evening's success, while the choir gave fine assistance. The recital was given under the auspices of St. Ag nes Guild. Miss Short is assistant organist at Trinity church in Port land.

There were about 200 persons on the train, many of them from Astoria, and it was a long and dreary wait, while the flat-car was': Wing replaced on the rails. Everything wss dark and quiet when the pasKiigcrs reached Portland, with no cars running and no hacks in sight. Word of Warning, ' According to a member of the board of police commissioners an or der was sent to the police' depart ment directing the members of the force to keep out of the political activities in any offenive way. Those who complained a week "or two ag') in this respect stated that there were only one or two against whom any complaint could be made. Reports yesterday indicated that the word of warning by the commissioners may not have reached the ears of the one or more for whom it was especially intended. Apparently the various municipal employees are pretty well divided in their political allegiance this year. Explains the Excess Councilman George Kaboth, who is chairman of the committee on the gre department, utts that the ex cess of expenditures over the appro priation may be easily explained. The budget set apart about $12,000 for the fire departure; by the end of the year the total expenditures will approximate $17,000, an excess of $5000. Mr, Kaboth yesterday said that there is $1000 worth of oats and other provender on hand, purchased recently because there had been an excellent chance to get it cheap. This may be counted as an asset. In addition to this the repairs on the two fire engines aggregated about $1600 more. This accounts for two- thirds of the excess. At , all events Mr. Kaboth put up a very cheerful talk in explanation. Only the best of material and the latest in cards used for our photos. Let us show you our work and quo'.c yfs prices.
