A fire broke out in a clothes closet of
Mrs. Annie Urqnhart's residence in the
pines about 11 o'clock last night. Th
neighbors were aroused and quickly
turned out. extinguishing it. But
about 1 o'clock, when all were again
asleep, a second fire bad started, and
when the awakened inmates discovered
it the interior was in ' a blaze. The
house burned to the ground, nothing
being saved but an organ and a sewing
machine. There was an insurance of
$1050 on house and contents.

arrived on the noon train today. Mr.
Grant comes hjere for the purpose of
taking photographic views to supple
ment a lecture he will deliver through
out the East, entitled "Where Rolls the
Oregon." He expects to have 150 views
and the finest stereopticon lecture in the
country. Mr. Grant claims the distinc
tion of having delivered more lectures in
the five years he has been in Portland
than the entire balance of the Portland
clergy, about 100 individuals.
Another killing frost occurred yester
day morning at Sacramento and Los
Angeles. These severe frosts so late in
the seaEon are not exceptional in that
region of eountry. Dr. Eshelman is an
old resident and vineyardist of Napa,
and he states that abont one year in
three the frosts do terrible execution,
end some damage accrnes every year.
The severest frost he ever saw was on
the 23th of May, which prostrated
everything. The vineyardiets are in the
habit of laying straw between the
avenues of vines and watch them with
all the vigilance given a eick child. In
the event of frost they are fired, and
the smoke hanging like clouds over the
entire valley keep the eon from shining
too brightly, until the frost is dispelled
by the warmth of the air. This saves
the greater portion of the crop.
The Blind Orator. .
Mr. J. H. St. Lawrence, acting com
mander of the Washington Freeman's
Silver Federation, will appear in The
Dalles next Monday evening. Mr. St,
Lawrence is mayor of Pullman, and is
engaged in the restaurant business there.
The Silver Federation elected him mayor
of the town.
Mr. St. Lawrence formerly resided in
Centervil'e, and will be remembered by
many old-timers as the "blind musi
cian" who traveled through Oregon and
Washington and gave shows. He was
then a good singer and pianist, and also
a fair ventriloquist. He is an excellent
orator and will undoubtedly draw a large
crowd.

Foor Place for Tramps.
The tramp ' nuisance is growing.
Early this morning a determined-looking
specimen selected a field for his man
ipulations containing about two blocks
and he aroused the whole neighborhood.
It consisted of the two squares on which
are situated Messrs.'JEvOwland's, Young's,
Dawson's, Stephens' and Mac Allister's
residences. He was determined upon
forcing some one of these houses to fur
nish him his breakfast, but he met with
little encouragement. He commenced
abusing Mr. S. L. Young, when Officer
Blakeney caught eight of him and
chased him. He refused to halt and
Blakeney threw a brick. The tramp
picked it up and threw it back at him.
Blakeney then retired in good order, but
soon came back on a horse armed with
a pistol. The tramp ran into Dawson's
yard, and Blakeney was about to lose
him again, when a n umber of citizens
suddenly showed np and blocked his
way. He then ran up the steps, with
the evident intention of forcing the door
and running through the house. Blake
ney then took a shot at him and nar
rowly missed him, when he surren
dered. The officer then marched him
to the jail. On the way the fellow act
ed a little obstreDerous and James
cooled his ardor by a blow on the bead
with his billy. :
This makes three tramps in the city
jail locked up for vicious conduct. The
officers are -pursuing the proper course
in subduing them. They would soon
take the town if they had the license. '
George Morgan Disturbed.
Mr. Geo. ' P. Morgan came near hav
ing an adventure last night.' About 11
o'clock, while but half asleep, be was
aroused by an indiscribable noise, which
was resolved shortly after into a tramp
getting mixed tip in the intricacies of a
wire fence, which is in front of the lot.
Mr. Morgan has a theory that sound is
more trustworthy than the eye in shoot
ing at objects, and that by extending the
forefinger along a pistol barrel aiming at
a spot from whence the sound proceeds,
the bell will unerringly pierce the cen-
... ,
the sound emanates. He says it works
admirably on prowling animals of any
kind. Bat before be could reach his
pistol to re-demonstrate his pet theory,
( the thicg which made the noise of tear-
ing down his fence and leaving the gate
wide open, was making a noise about
two blocks distant, and he didn't want
overtax the capacity of his weapon.

In Reply to the Address of Mr. Powell.
Editob Chbonicle: -.
"The obiect and aim of the Catholic
church is to get control of the govern
ment of this country for the pope. To this
end the war of the rebellion was largely
brought about by the Catholic church."
"At the request of Jefferson Davis the
pope recognized the' Southern Confed
eracy, and the direct result was the de
sertion of nearly all of the Catholics in
the Union army." "The battle of Gettys
burg would have resulted in the capture
of Lee and the close of the war, but that
a strange gentleman of clerical appear
ance, in dark clothing, paid a secret
visit to the Catholic general, Meade,
during the crisis of the battle, and
Meade refused to allow the Union
troops to "follow up the victory and cap
ture the retreating rebels. The stranger
was a .Jesuit priest." "The Catholic
church is directly responsible for the as
sassination of President Lincoln."
Such are a few, oat of many, assertions
of a kindred nature made by Rev. F. A.
Powell in his lecture on Catholicism in
the United States, delivered in the
Christian church of this city last Friday
evening. If they are true they ought to
be sounded forth from every rostrum
and published in every newspaper in
the land. If tbey are true no human
curse is sufficiently strong to damn and
execrate the deadly viper of Catholicism.
If tbey are true the existence of A. P.
A. i3ir, contemptible .and un-American
as its methods and principles are, is
amply excused, if not justified. On the
other hand, if they are not true, no
depth of infamy is too abysmal as the
portion of their propagators. . If they
are not true a -terrible responsibility
rests upon the heads of the Christian
pastors and Christian churches that
give them even a quasi sanction. I say
nothing of their "Reverend" authors.
They have their reward in the dollar a
head they get as the initiation fee of
their converts' and in the collections at
the close of their lectures.: ' '
Mr. Powell made no attempt to prove
any of these assertions. He delivered
them with the confidence and nonchal
ance of one who was saying something
