VISITING BAPTISTS.
Missionary Board of the Baptist Con
vention of the North Pacific Coast.
The Baptist Missionary Board met at
3 o'clock this afternoon at the. court
house, and adjourned to meet tomorrow,
when the regular business of the session
will be taken up. The reason for the
adjournment is due to the fact that a
brother of the corresponding secretary,
Mr. J. E. Horn, died early in the week,
and his funeral occurs today at Haines.
The president of the board, Rev. E. P.
Waltz, is also absent, as he will preach
the funeral sermon..
' That our readers may be posted as to
the status of this body, we will state
that in 1887-8 was organized what is
called the Oregon Baptist State conven
tion, covering the entire state in its
jurisdiction. Owing to various causes, in
1892 the majority of the Baptist churches
east of the Cascades withdrew from this
body, and organized "The East Oregon
Baptist Convention." In 1893 this latter
body sent a delegate and applied for
admission and co-operation with the
Southern Baptist Convention of the
United States. The other Oregon con"
vention had been, and is now, co-operating
with the American Baptist Home
Mission Society of New York:
The object of the present meeting is to
transact such business as would prop
er lp come before such a body, and also
to consider and decide on a proposition
for all the Baptists of the state to co-operate
with the New York society, each
convention, of course, preserving its
own autonomy, and looking after its
own work.
There are present as delegates Messrs.
C. H. Mattoon of Independence, J. W.
Oliver of McMinnville and G. W.
Pwtherer of Perrydale. Mr. Mattoon
also represents by proxy J. W. Osborne
of Independence and S. K. Crowley of
Monmouth, and Mr. Pwtherer, John
Gay of Crowley.

Temperance Rally.
A goodly number of the friends of
temperance gathered at Fraternity hall
last evening, and, though the storms
raged without, there was a genial at
mosphere within. After a short inter
val of pleasant talk and social inter
course, Mr. H. H. Lenard was elected
president of the organization, Mr. A. A.
Urquhart secretary, and Mr. Brown
treasurer. A petition to the G. C. T. .of
the I. O. G. T. had been prepared ask
ing for a charter for a new lodge of the
order at The Dalles. This was -signed
by twenty-three persons. The name of
the lodge is to be "The Independent
Workers."
The investigation of coffee and cake
was a pleasant feature of the evening,
and a little later the young folks "tripped
the light fantastic toe." All said they
had a good time. Another meeting is
called for one week from last evening.
All friends of temperance are invited to
join the order. Come and have a pleas
ant evening with The Independent
Workers. Know Nothing.

An Account of the Death and Burial
of Geo. Washington..
Be Died, on the 14tn Instead of the
31st of December, 1799, 'as Is
Generally Supposed.
A story has lately been going tne
rounds of the press that Gen. George
Washington died in the last hour of the
last day of the last century. There is
on exhibition today in the window of
me naraware store ot Maier & Benton a
copy of the Ulster County (New York)
Gazette, published at Kingston, N. Y.,
of date January 4, 1800, being Ko. 88 of
Vol. 2. This paper is - of great value,
and contains an account of the burial of
George Washington and the date of his
death. The paper is the property of the
sisters of St. Mary's Academy, who had
Maier & Benton enclose it in an air
tight glass case. It : is printed with
wide black rules between every column,
expressive of mourning. The following
is the. article as it appeared :
WASHINGTON ENTOMBED.
- ' George Town, Dec. SO.
On Wednesday laft the mortal part of
WASHINGTON the Great the father of
his country and the Friend of man, was
configned to the tomb, with solemn
honors and funeral pomp.
A multitude of persons affembled,
from many miles around, to Mount Ver
non, the choice abode and laft residence
of the illaftrious chief. - There were the
groves, the spacious avenues, the beau
tiful and sublime scenes, the noble man
fion, but alas! how affecting? how awful
the spectacle of such worth and great
ness, thus to mortal eyes, fallen ! -Yes,
fallen! fallen!
In the long and lofty Portico where
oft the Hero walked in all his
glory now lay the fhrouded corpse. The
countenance, ftill composed and serene,
seemed 'to depress the dignity of the
spirit, which lately dwelt in that lifeless
form ! There those who paid the laft
sad honours to the benefactor of . his
country, took an impressive a farewell
view.
On the ornament at the head of the
coffin was inscribed Surge ad Judicium

deo and on the filver plate

Mot her-ln-I.ar to the Mikado. '
The. mother-iri-law of the mikado of
Japan has recently been ill. She -was
ittended by four hundred and trwenty
.hree physicians, but in spite of that
.he pulled , through. In connection
vith the illness of this illustrious lady
he Buddhist priests have been claim
ng that it was caused by the introduc-ion-of
railroads into the "kingdom.
Their argument was a very powerful
ind convincing one, too,, in their own
estimation, since it sho.v-ed conclnsive
.y that when there were no railroLxls in
the king-dom the empress was in good
health and after the introduction of
railroads she became ill. They were
astonished that anyone should dispute
so logical a proposition.
