The boVs failed financially on their excursion, and a: effort will , be made to recover, tip loss and pay for some new ' music they have lately purchased. .Some .of the boys claim the existence of i the: band is pre carious for lack of funds. The excursion of The Dalles band' was not liberally attended, and resulted in a financial loss. The day was rot favor able for the excursion, and if It should be repeated later would be far better patronized. The band , was reinforced yesterday by Mr. Fred Helfrich of Dufur, who. is a first-class musician and who plays the Eb clarinet. Next Wednesday and Thursday at the Baldwin Opera. House there . will! occur an unusual entertainment, and ofa char acter which never fails of drawing large crowds. Charley Brock man, the boy wonder, is the possessor of a wonderful power, or the medium of one, which he does, not know, nor.. does 'he know the source of that ' power." , It, therefore, goes under the name of occult science a paradox. No explanation can be given by witnesses of the manifestations, seemingly impossible, but nevertheless revealed. Whether this power .is' spirit influence, mesmeric power or odic ' force the fact is the same. Either is incom prehensible." - Memorial Services. Memorial services in honor of the na tion's dead heroes were held in the Con gregational church Sunday ' evening. The members of the Grand Army of the Republic and the Wpmans Relief Corps, met in Fraternity hall at 7:30, p. m. It was but a little band of brave patriots who could not forget . the sacred day set apart by a grateful people. So the grey . haired veterans marched through the streets eileutly and sol emnly, with drooping flags, wives, daughters and sisters leading the way. There were few to do them honor as they filed down the church aisle and filled the seats. "Old Glory" greeted them with its red, white and blue, gracefully draped. The Congregational choir rendered its sweetest niusic. The patriotic songs touched the hearts of the old soldiers, and partly atoned for lack of interest on the part of the public.who sometimes forget to "Honor our brave defenders, Heroes who wore the bine, Valiant and firm and fearless, Trusty and tried and true. Never their footsteps faltered, ' In path where duty led. Cheers for the soldier living, -Tears for the soldier dead' ' Rev. Mr. Miller, of the Second Baptist church, delivered a forcible address, ap propriate to the occasion. In this connection it is well to state tbat next Saturday, the 30th of May, is Decoration day. . This beautiful custom "Born of War to endure in gentle Peace" promises to be of unusual m interest. The G.- A,. R... and , W.. R.

A large audience assembled in Armory Hall at 10:30 yesterday morning, where .Evangelist Crittenton and his associates began a series of union meetings. Mr. Wallace, the leader of singing, first con ducted several'' selections' "of ' congrega tional singing from Gospel Hymns, a n CHAS. N. CBITTHNTON. , Most Perfect adejc 40 Years the Standan?. There were associated with Mr.. Critten ton on the platform nearly all the Chris, tian ministers of this city, who entered into the spirit of the occasion with great 'zeal'."' The Bermbn"by 'Mr "Crittenton partook of the character of an appeal to accept Christ, and during' the course of the sermon there were two situations al most dramatic. At the conclusion of a pathetic story' be ' raised his voice in song, assisted by a female voice in the choir, and later In bis talk he with two others assumed an 'attitude of prayer, but instead of the expected supplication there sprang . from . the lips of the trio one of the prettiest, most melodious and solemn songs of warning that were ever heard.. At the conclusion of the sermon all who desired to be saved, saint or'sin taer," were invited to arise, and the invi tation was generally accepted." ' - ' . ' In the afternoon a joung people's meeting occurred at 1 2:30 o'clock, at which there was a liberal attendance. In the evening the large hall was crowd ed. , The text was. from Daniel xi :13, 'But go the thy way till the end be, for thou eh alt stand in thy lot at the end of the day." The same, character, of ad drees as the morning . was noted an ap peal' to come to Christ.' As a result there were about 20 unconverted' persons who signed cards pledging themselves '"this day to give myself to Jesus, and with bis help will hereafter live a Christian life,". Tuesday is children'.s day, Wednesday night is set abart for the story of the Florence Crittenton missions, which never fail s of arousing the most intense Interest', 'and : lor the 'maintenance of which' all the nightly 'collections are re served.'' There are thirty of these now in existence. ' 'All ' the. ' meetings com mence at 7 :30 in the evening. A Carload of Choice Burbank Po tatoes have just arrived at - ; -r.,- . i . r- :...- .
