A large audience filled the Methodist church last evening to listen to a Christ mas sermon by the pastor, Rev. J. II. Wood. The ppeaker took his text from the verse in which the announcement of Christ's birth is made and .'preached from it an able sermon, most appropri ate to this season of the year. Mr. Wood epoke of Christ in four different roles First, as a statesman, in which capacity Christ taught lessons of politi cal prudence to the people of Palestine, and showed his wonderful insight into the civic institutions of the age; Christ as a reformer was tbe next subdivision ; then as the greatest philanthropist of all ages ; and finally as the saviour of man kind. The speaker spoke of Christmas and tbe habit of gift-making at this time. Presents, he said, were too often given with the hope of receiving . some thing in return. The rich receive what they do not need, while the poor go un remembered. . Remember the poor at Christmas time was Mr. Wood's closing thought. AT THE CONGREGATIONAL. Rev. W. C. Curtis was listened to by large audiences yesterday morning and evening. At the evening service the theme was founded upon the story by Edward Everett Hale entitled "In His Name." Mr. Curtis proceeded to give a resume of the story which told of the "Poor men of -Lyons" and the deeds which were done for the love of Christ. The central idea gathered from the story and which the speaker enlarged upon and elucidated was the dependence of one person on another and the utter helplessness of a selfish life. The ser mon was a most spiritual one, and lis tened to with deep attention by the hearers. The singing by the 'choir both morning and evening was of a high order. ' A. Catting; Attrtkj. Dr. Deitrich, who ariived in town at noon from Dufur, brings word of a cutting affray which occurred at Wamic yesterday afternoon. A courier arrived at Dr. Deitrich's residence last night asking him to go to Wamic to attend Tom Edmonsen, who bad been seriously and perhaps fatally stabbed by Ed Stoey. For some time there has been bad blood between ' the Stoey and Ed mnnsen families, the cause being a very trivial one it being alleged that one of the Edmunsen family 'stole a spool of thread from the Stoeys. Yesterday afternoon Ed Stoey came to Edmunsen's house, about three miles from Wamic, and after some conversation the stab bing occurred. Dr. Deitrich was unable to go to Wamic, and Dr. Kane of Dufur was summoned. The exact extent of Edmunsen's injuries are not known, but it is believed they are very serious. At last accounts Stoey had not been ar rested. Wamic is situated at the south ern end of this county. v. A Sunday Wedding. Yesterday morning at 10 :30 Rev. I. H. Hazel, joined in marriage Mr. V. W.
