A business block, in Athena, in which
the Opera house was situated, was des
troyed by fire with the exception of two
"" small brick buildings, Friday night.
The total loss is about $17,000, insurance
$4,500. . The fire was thought to be of
incendiary origin.
It is no joke about the people of the
town of Mitchell wanting to be incorpor
ated. They believe under a municipal
government thev could keep the town
pore orderly. If it will stop the shoot
ing and killing over there, for goodness
sake let the whole country surrounding
Mitchell be incorporated. Ochoco Jie
nieto. Hon. T. J. Stevenson, member of the
legislature from Crook county is here on
his way to Salem. He was one of
Wasco's live representatives in 1872, and
will no doubt feel kindly towards old
Wasco in any legislation she may need
-at the coming session.
We are requested to state that the
committees appointed by the farmers to
solicit subscriptions to be used in putting
a line of boats on the river, will meet in
this city Saturday, January 24th, at 11
o'clock a. M'at the board of trade rooms
for the purpose of making their report.
Hon. E. B. Faull of Baker City has
spent a day or two in our city. Mr.
Faull is one of our railroad commission

perfectly safe, and they have also made
a careful examination of the road and
bridges between here and Portland.
1 Rev. J. T. Eshelman, of Yakima, and
one of the few Democrats elected to the
Washington legislature, was in the city
Saturday on his way home from Port
land. He stopped off here to visit his
brother Dr. Eshelman, and for old
acquaintance sake made us a pleasant
call. He has prospered in woridly
affairs up Yakima way, likes the coun
try and the people, and we are . glad to
ee(asthe election demonstrated) that
they like him. He is of the opinion that
his state should do something towards
. -opening the Columbia, and will no
doubt aid in every possible way in
accomplishing this result. ;
The names of those authorized to re
ceive subscriptions to the boat line, by
the farmers, appears elsewhere. It is
necessary that all who intend to aid in
the good work sign the subscription
books, so that when they are turned in
to the meeting, it will be informed fully
as to what can be expected. The board
of trade will be prepared at the same
time to make a statement as to what it
can do, and the success of the matter
can then be assured, or given up as a
bad job. Everything depends on this
meeting and if it is not a success we can
blame no one but ourselves. Let every
one who proposes to give come forward
o that all will give at the same time.
GREED OP THE BELLS.
Services - at the Various Churches in
. The Dalles Yesterday.
i 'at the h. e. church.
Large congregations at the M. E.
church yes.terday listened to the Rev.
F. R. Spaulding, presiding elder of The
Dalles district. In the .morning he
preached an able sermon from the words,
"That in all things he might have the
pre-eminence.". Col. 1 : 18.
In the evening he delivered an elo
quent discourse from Mark vm : 36 ; "For
what shall it "profit a man if he shall
gain the whole world and lose his own
soul." ' '.
In his opening remarks he said that
he had read somewhere an article in
which the writer drew a picture of the
world, complete in all its material ap
pointments, the vast ocean thundering
against the shores of every laud, mighty
rivers sweeping to the sea, magnificent
plains and prairies stretching far across
the continents, trackless forest waving
their vernal plumes over valley and hill
slope, snow-capped mountains towering
heavenward but without a single repre
sentative of the animal kingdom on land
or sea, save the solitary beholder. A
feeling of lonliness steals over him, in
tense, almost maddening, when sud
denly a little bird fresh from the hand of
the Creator, flits into view, perches
gracefully upon a swinging branch, and
pours forth upon the startled air its
wealth of rapturous melody. The list
ener stands entranced. Everything
ocean, river, valley, forest, mountain
sinks from his view, and that little bird
is worth more to him than all the world
beside.
But if the little bird, with its joyous
song, could be valued so highly, what
may we not say of the worth of man
with his wonderful physical and mental
equipment, to which God has super
added an immortal nature?
At the close of the morning service
the sacrament of the Lord's Supper was
administered to a large member of de
vout communicants.
As usual the singing 'was all that
could be desired.
THE CONGREGATIONAL, CHURCH.
A fair sized audience assembled at the
Congregational church yesterday morn
ing. It was communion Sunday and
the services were peculiarly appropriate.
Mr. Curtis took the text from Paul's
Epistle to the Ephesians "We preach
Christ crucified." The pastor told of a
clergyman who said when he preached
a sermon he tried to always outline the
plan of salvation so that were a person
to hear only that one sermon it would
contain all that was necessary to lead
him to Christ. To preach Christ cruci
fied is to preach Christianity, goodness
mercy and truth. The truth in Christ
is such that if men can. be made to
see it, will lead them to. Christ. Some
men enjoy the Bible, its teachings, its
beautiful promises and the hopes it in
spires, but ask them if it makes them
love their enemies and give up their pet
sins and they lose their interest in the
discussion at once. Paul did not preach
Christ crowned but a Saviour ,meek and
lowly and poor and long suffering. It was
Christianity inward the kingdom of
Heaven within and working outward
that produced good results and won men
to God. . -
John Ernst, an old pioneer .of this
county, died at the county hospital Dec.
31st 1890, aged 75 years. Deceased came
to this coast with the 14th Rt of In
fantry under Commander General Wool
in 1852, and after being discharged from
the army went to farming on Five Mile,
later at Dry Hollow. He was a native
of Thueringen, Germany.

The Khedlv. of Egypt.
Miss Kate Maxsden, the missionary to
the lepers, who is now traveling exten
sively to collect information about the
stricken people to whose service she has
consecrated her life, was invited, during
her brief stay in Alexandria, to be pre
sented to the khediva. Her highness
the Princess . Emineh-Hsnen, the khe
diva, is the daughter of the late Prince
El-Hamy-Paaka, and the mother of two
fine boys and two pretty girls. She is a
fine looking woman of about thirty
years, with bright brown eves expressive
enough to interpret the Thoughts she
conld not put in words to her English
visitor. She has , an imposing figure,
which was, on the occasion of the pres
entation, draped to advantage in a well
made black gown. The palace of the
khedive is a peculiar structure, painted
entirely white, surrounded by a court
prettily decorated with green creepers
and paved with a peculiar mosaic made
of stones in two colors all turned on
their sides.
The maids in attendance in the inner
hall were all simply dressed alike in
plain black and white dresses.' Not a
man was seen about the palace whose
furnishing is extremely plain and Still
pie, the only pretty room being the
central one, in which were lovely mir
rors and candelabra and beautifully in
laid and polished floors.
The royal lady graciously welcomed
the plainly .dressed woman who came be
fore her in a costume unlike anything
ever seen in the presence chamber
before, for Miss Marsden, to quote
her own words; was limited to
choice between "three severely plain
uniforms, one of which was crushed,
the second very creased and the
third on . my back, its freshness all
gone, likewise some of its buttons.
Besides they were all bo warm, being in
tended for rough traveling in Russia,
and by no means suitable for royal re
ceptions or for the hot climate. My bon
net had already done good service in
London for six months, and its original
color being black, it was then a rusty
brown. Gloves, fortunately, I had, but
my only pair of boots were thick travel
ing ones, made for Siberia. Fancy my
clumping into the presence of her high
ness with such boots."
She Had Her Bevenge,
An amusing scene was witnessed in
Main street a few days ago, in which a
conductor on a West avenue car figured
in a ridiculous light. The passengers
included three women and two children.
As the car passed Niagara square one of
the young women polled the bell cord in
a frantic manner, and the car came to a
sadden halt. An old woman who was
waiting for the car to pass eluded it,
and the young woman who pulled the
bell looked the least bit r rwt rrit The
conductor looked mad and started the
car up in a hurry. Then a woman on
the other side of the car made a wild
dash at the bell cord, again stopping the
car, but she made no effort to disembark,
and when the conductor glared at her
like a wild beast ehe meekly stammered:
... . '.'I thought that young woman wanted
to get off."
" J'Now, if you women will let me man
age the car and keep your hands off the
bell rope TO be obliged to yon." gruffly
said the irate conductor.
The women blushed, but said nothing.
They were amply revenged soon after.
At the junction of Main and Niagara
streets the conductor beat a sudden re
treat into the street railroad office with
out ringing for the driver to halt. When
the conductor reappeared his car was at
Seneca street. He jumped on board of
another street car, and it went down
Main street at a three minute clip, the
conductor yelling like a Comanche In
dian in order to attract the attention of
the runaway driver, but in vain. The
people on Main street hardly knew what
to make of the scene, but the women on
the West avenue car enjoyed the fun im
mensely. "He said he'd manage the car," said
one of them, "and 1 won't interfere with
his business." Buffalo Express.
The Feaxher Rage.
A well dressed woman nowadays is as
fluffy as a downy bird fresh from the
nest. She wears feather ruches around
her street, house and evening gowns, on
her neck, be it dressed in V-shape, low,
round or high, around the lower edge of
her bodice if she is slender, on her
sleeves and as a border to her skirt.
Then she trims her jacket or her long
or short wrap with the soft curling
bands, edges her large or small hat brim
and crown and rests content, knowing
well that nothing will prove more be
coming to her complexion, whatever it
may be.
If the latest idea in trimmings is de
sired, Madam Fashion selects a band
of bead passementerie edged with the
shortest of ostrich feathers which is at
once costly, rare and superb in its effect.
Feather fans, closing or opened, were
never so popular, and in millinery it is
possible to have too few but not too
many plumes, tips, pompons, bands.
aigrets or pert little crests. All of
these are perishable, but their use makes
trade, they are handsome to look at and
becoming to wear, so what more can we
expect? Dry Goods Economist.
SErm. Grant's Book.
Mrs. Ulysses S. Grant is making little
or no progress with her book. Her eyes
are weak, but not failing her, as the re
port goes. Whenever she has time she
writes a page or two, but progress is very
slow. From present appearances th
book will hardly be on the market be
fore the spring. I have seen one or two
chapters of this work, and can state that,
while there is no evidence of literary
skill or finish displayed, there is a can-
didness and freshness about it all that
the American people like and will accept
with interest New York Letter.
- A new fad, evolved from some society

One recently given on Fifth avenue, N.

hearts, the favors wcr hearts And. sus
usual, the women were all heart.
