Sunday morning was as fair and beau
tiful an Easter as we would svish to see;
kQt in the afternoon a Chinook wind
suffering from the delirium tremenE,
came along with a jag on that was sim
V Y immense. The way the Just and
"trything else loose flew was a caution,
and it kept it up well through the night,
bringing gome rain before it quit.
The members of the Lutheran Sunday
school gave a sacred concert last night
in the courthouse, which was well at
tended. The eicknees of Rev. Grey,

H was a success. The room was beauti
fully decorated.
The services at the Congregational
church yesterday morning were partial
Iarlv impressive, and the church was
well filled with an attentive congrega
tion. The stinging was up to its usual
degree of excellence. Besides the cus-
tomary anthem and hymns, a solo,
, "Ashamed of Jesus," was sung by Miss
', Mamie Cusbing. The pastor, W. C.
Curtis, chose for the topic of bis sermon
. "The Nature of the Heavenly Life," and
made a very effective address, after
which eight persons united with the
church. The service closed with the
administration of the Lord's Supper.
The river yesterday morning was 20.4
and this morning 23.9, a rise of some
thing over three feet in twenty-four
hours, ending at S o'clock this morning.
During the day the rise has been at the
rate of about three inches in two hourE.
The change in the temperature, if ex
tending to the head waters of the Snake
and Columbia, may slacken the flood in
three or four days, but there is water
enough coming from the effects of the
warm spell to send the river up to the
30-foot mark. It is now nearly four feet
higher than on April 19, 1S94, at which
time it was falling slightly, standing at
19.5, and having been a foot higher than
that.
.School Funds.
Easter Services.
In accordance with law, the April ap
portionment of county school funds was
sent out from the office of county super
intendent today. The total amount dis
tributed, $7,G12.G5, after deducting the
$50, for each of sixty districts entitled
to funds, gives $1.15 per capita on the
school enumeration. In April '90 the
amount distributed was .?10,717, the per
capita being $2. The greater per centage
of delinquent taxes this year has caused
the shortage in the county fund and as
the delinquent roll is now placed with
the sheriff for further collection, it is
probable that the August apportionment
of '97 will exceed that of August '96.

i The Easter exeicises at the Methodist
church yesterday morning w ere beauti
ful. The decorations were very pretty,
and of the usual Easter order, consist
ing of potted plants, lilies and other
flowers. The most unique decoration
was a regular tree of the Christmas vari
ety that had grown a prolific crop of
highly-colored hen-apples. It was the
only genuine egg plant we ever saw,
and we wouldn't have believed it then
if it had not been in the church. How
ever, when the exercises were through
the Sunday Echool children were each
given an egg from the wonderful tree
and were delighted with them. The
music was all good, and the children's
songs not only w;ell rendered, but well
selected, the motion song being especi
ally effective. It was sung by nbout a
dozen little girls, dressed in white, and
when the little arms weui all at once,
reaching up ae if asking to bo taken into
someone's strong aii3, it made as
pretty a tableau as we ever witnessed.
There were so many pretty things that
we cannot remember them all, but have
only a memory of having eoent a most
delightful hour and a half enjoying with
the little folks the beautiful Easter day.
It has been twenty-one years since we
attended Easter tervice before, and it
had somewhat an air of newness to us;
but after yesterday's experience wu will
not miss another soon.

morning, April ISth, by W. C. Curtis',
pastor of the Congregational church, at
the residence of the bride's parents, on
Third street, William J. Kufeno.of Port
land, Or., and Miss Jennie S. Ruseell,

The ceremony was simple, only rela
tives of the parties being present, with
the exception of Captain and Mrs.
Waud, The parlors were handsomely
decorated with a profusion of flowers,
apple blossoms pievailing. The mar
riage took place at 10 o'clock and the
young couple left on the afternoon local
for Portland, A large number of friends
were at the Umatilla house to bid them
God-speed, but as they had hoarded the
cars at the depot there was only time to
wave handkerchiefs and throw a few
handfnls of rice, old shoes and con
gratulations, all mixed, after them. We
wish them the very happiest of honey
moons, that may extend through the
next fifty years.

On can get an idea oi where the flood
is coming from, from the following taken
from the Baker City Democrat of
Sunday:
The oldest inhabitant of Baker City
never saw Powder river when it had on
its fighting clothes like the preeent. A
week ago the stream was on a tear, hut
that was mild as compared to its mad
ness yesterday and last night. All day
yeeterday it raised rapidly, and last
night it was a second Columbia.

The bridge on Vallev avenue is out

is in danger of going out, and if this
should occur it will entail a big loss to
