Edward Shields Tonight.
Mr. and Sirs, ltufeuo Kutortalneil.
The Degree of Honor held a special
meeting last night in connection with
the A. O. U. W., the occasion being a
gathering of the family circle in honor
of Mr. and Mrs. Rufeno, who had just
returned from Portland, it being their
first visit Bince Miss Jennie Russell had
discarded the last name to take that of
her husband. A short program was
rendered, consisting of music and read
ings, after which the editor of The
CmtONiCLE was called upon to present a
pretty trifle, not of much valuej in it
self, but representing whole lots of good
will, it being a gift of the lodge. The
present was a silver sugar bowi, bearing
simply the letter "R." The remarks
were in that peculiarly modest and quiet
vein for which the Ciikonicmj man is
noted, and besides eliciting applause
thut the remarks woro over, also brought
out a very happy response from each of
the. young couple. Icecream and cake
followed, and then dancing, which was
kept up until nearly midnight.
Ills Itrothur With JJIm.
No better description could be made
of Edward Shields' entertainment, to be
given at the Vogt opera house tomorrow
night, than the following flattering com
ment from the Ilwaco Journal, one of
the leading newspapers ot Southwestern
Washington :
''In the two illustrated entertainments
that Edward Shields gave here last Mon
day and Tuesday evenings he sustained
the excellent reputation he has made
everywhere ae a public speaker and en
tertainer, and it is to be regretted that
more people did not turn out, for it was
given as a benefit to create a library
fund for our city schools. Besides the
entertainments themselves merited bet
ter patronage; but it is as Mr. Shields
says, there are so many parties running
around the country with little "Jim
Crowe" magic lantern outfits humbug
ing the people, thut when a good enter
tainment conies along they are the loser.
"On Monday evening Mr. Shields gave
a history of the Columbia river and its
environments, illustrated with about
100 views. Tho lirst view ehown was
that of the Fort Canby life saving crew
going out to sea from the mouth of the
river. This was followed by a series of
pictures of local interest, which elicited
much applause. These were followed
i by views of the different points of inter-
est along up the river to the dalles, and
after giving a description of the great
Inland Empire, the lecture closed with
a history of the city of Portlund.
few moments he seemed paralyzed, but
after lying on the grass a little while he
was able to limp homeward. On arrival
there he told his parents ot tho accident
and complained that his right leg and
arm seemed numb and paralyzed. A
physician was summoned but he could
do nothing to relieve the sufl'erer, and
another was called in. His eilbrts were
also futile, so Brodeck chartered a spec
ial train and brought four of the best
physicians from Seattle, but the efforts
of ull were fruitltes, and in 48 hours tho
boy was dead. East Oregonian.

The animatiscope, which iB how ex
hibiting the wonderful pictures in our
city, is located at the old Vogt building
about across the street from the Cuno.v
iclk ofliee. Mr. Wilbur, who is in
charge of it, is an honest and conscien
tious exhibitor, understands his busi
ness, and succeeds in presenting, not
pictures, but the moving, living objects.
To uppreciute it you will have to see it.
The Marshfield Sun speaks of it as pub
lished below, and dozens of other papers
attest the perfections of the living scenes
reproduced :
The animatiscopo entertainment last
week waB a scientific treat; it was in
fact everything claimed by Mi. Wilbur.
The pictures are produced with such ra
pidity ana exactness as to bhow every
movement as realistic as if looking it
the real object. It is simply marvelous
and one who has never seen the anitna
iscope will never renret paying the price
