I.t Night' ICevlval Meeting;.
The theme at the Methodist church
last night was, Can I dance, play cards,
attend theaters, etc., and be a church
member? Mr. Miller said: "Until re
cently this has been a subject for my
afternoon meetings, as I address it to
church members. Whenever persons
present themselves as candidates for
church membership they profess and
are supposed to be Christians. By their
own act they renounce the world, the
flesh and the devil."
Mr. Miller quoted Leviticus xx :22-27
inclusive, Deut. x:12-22, and Deut.
xviii :9-13. s bowing how God required
of Israel that they "love him and keep
his charge, and his statutes and his
iudements and his commandments al
way." Turning to the New Testament
he found the rule of life and conduct In
II Cor. vi:ll-18; Rom. xll:l-2; bt.
John xv:10j xvii:14, and 1 John i.
After these scripture readings he con
tlnued: "These are worldy amuse
ments j none would bo so bold as to call
them Christian. Jesus said: 'Ye are
the light of the world.' He nlso save
the world Is in darkness. It is a self
evident fact that light aud darkness can
not be in the eamo place ut the same
time. No more can a Christian bo of
the world and of Christ tit thosamo
time, 'If any man be in Christ ho Ih a
new creature ;' 'his delight Is in the law
of the Lord.' "

Coming; Attractions.
On next Monday and Tuesday even
ings, April 18th and 19th, the celebrated
Janet Waldorf and her superb company
will present 'Ingomar, the Barbarian,'
and "The Hunchback" to the theater
goers of The Dalles, and two snlcndid
performances are anticipated. The
Portland Oregouian pays the following
graceful tribute to Miss Waldorf and her
superb acting:
"The Waldorf company appeared at
the Marquam Grand opera house ycBter-
day evening and presented Mary Lov-
ell's classic and romantic drama of "In
gomar, the Barbarian." It is to be re
gretted that the theater was not crowd
ed, as (he production was the best that
has been given this season Tho audi
ence, however, became enthused with
the performance and the applause was
appreciative, timely and generous.
"The company and star, Miss Janet
Waldorf, are new to the histrionic
world, and were not known to our peo
pie, although the press notices were
highly commendatory to the attraction
" 'Ingomar' Is one of thoee plays that
never grow old, and those who witness
it onco go again and again. It is a mas
terpiece of dramatic interest, and the
story is a dream of all that U good and
ennobling ic the histrionic art of hold
ing the mirror up to nature. This is
Mis9 Waldorf's first season aa a star.
She has achieved in a few yeart' study
what has taken other actresses years to
accomplish. She is gifted in form and
feature with a handsomo presence and is
graceful to a marked degree, As Par
thcula, the Greek maiden, who went far
into barbaric wilds to find her father
aud seek his ransom, sho mado a delight
ful picture by her artlessness, uaivette
and gentle speech. Tho transformation
she wrought in the barbaric chieftain,
with his uncouth ways and rough speech,
to that of a lovesick swain, was a subtle
bit of dramatic art. Miss Waldorf is
young and has iv brilliant future before
her j sho is talented beyond her years
and U destined to occupy a prominent
position in the dramatic liriuament,

Warde In Vlrclnlus."
A rither small andience greeted Fred
erick Warde at the Vogt last night. In
deed, when we consider the greatness of
the man in the role lie played, we can- j
not but feel surprised that he did not ,
have a crowded house. Were it any or
dinary theatrical performance, we would
have been forced to Eay that it was well
attended; but we are surprised whpn
wo think how seldom such an opportu
nity ia presented to us, that so few took
advantage of it.
Warde in "Vireinius" i
beyond our
power of description. Ir
fa moment he
passes from melancholy t
cheerfulness,
rage to kind
from sorrow to joy, frqr
ness and affection, and carries his audi
ence with him.
His support is good throughout. In
fact, some of those he has with him are
artists, and, on the whole, the perform
ance probably surpassed anything The
Dalles has had in this line for a long
time.
When during the eveningAIr. Warde
answered a curtain call, he was present
ed with a beautiful bouquet with tho
compliments of his brotner Elks, to
which he responded in i manner that
won tho audience at once, and made tho
heart of every Elk beat witli a trua
brotherly feeling.
IlenilHche From Eyo Strain.
A high authority says that "Eyo strain
causes more headache than all other
caiiEcs combined." From this fact it
follows that thousands of people are suf
fering from headache, who do not real
ize that the cause is a defect or weak
ness in tho eyes. They may have taken
medicines without getting relief, or
they may have suffered thinking there
is no remedy.
All these cases can be porfectly cured
with glasses that will correct the error
in the eyes, and retain sight by consult
ing P. G. Daut, tho optician, two doors
west of Keller's Bakery. tf
A little boy asked for a bottle of "get
up iu tho moining as fast as you can,"
the druggist recognized a household
name for "DeWiU's Little Early RIsera"
and gave him a bottle of those famous
little pills for constipation, sick head
ache, liver aud stomach troubles.
