The number of wheat and other teams
in town today has demonstrated the
fact that if the Btreet sprinkler were to
make a trip or two up Second street it
would not be amiss. The dust which

reach as low a price as $5. Democrat.

on Tuesday, Oct. lltb, the local train,
running between this city and Portland, t
will be taken off. This has been a great
a'commodation to those desiring to make
a short trip to Portland, and the change
will necessitate the early rising of visit
ors to . the metropolis, as both west

(,
bound trains leave in the morning.
Warehouse men today say that never
their experience has there been eo
many wheat teams in at one time, the

the entire city has been awake today.

Henry C. Murray, ex-sheriff of Mal
heur county, was burned to death in the
city jail at Vale Thursday morning.
Murray, while not a drinking man, be
came intoxicated and was very boister
ous on the streets. Marshall Wilson
concluded tbat it was dangerous for him
to be at large and he was locked up in
the city jail. About 4 o'clock an alarm
of fire was sounded, and it was found
that the city jail was ablaze. Citizens
rushed to the scene, but before they
arrived Murray had perished in the
flames. It is supposed that upon awaken
ing and finding himself in jail Murray
deliberately Bet the building on fire.
Deceased was well known throughout
Eastern Oregon.
"He tbat is stricken blind cannot for
get the precious treasures of his eye
sight lost." Many persons are wearing
glasses at the costly expense of their
eyesight. It is to be remembered tbat
all physical ailments will manifest them
selves more or less through these win
dows of the mind ; therefore it is of the
greatest ot importance, when one wears
glasses, to have the eyes examined by
some experienced, scientific and profes
sional refractionist. One may have a
theoretical knowledge, yet without the
thorough practical experience has not
yet mastered the optical science. Mrs.
Dr. Frank, of San Francisco, comes
highly recommended by the medical
profession of California, and the flatter
ing press notices this lady has received
in different parts of the United States
are convincing tbat she is a success in
her choBen profession.

'VILLAGE WORK IN INDIA."
An Interesting .ectare at the SI. .
Church. Convention Closes Tomorrow.
The missionary convention now in ses
sion in our city is proving a very suc
cessful one, and quite an interest is
being awakened in the work among
those who heretofore gave it little
thought. The convention closes to
morrow, delegates returning to tbeir
several homes Monday.
The lecture given by Mrs. Prautch last
night was one of especial interest, as the
lady and her husband were missionaries
in the northwest portion of Bombay
presidency Gugarat, India, for nine
years, returning about a year ago. Her
subject was "Village Work on Camel
Back," which Ehe says is the most un
comfortable means of traveling imagin
able, a ehort trip causing her to be enable
to move about for days. In India any
place of from 200 to 20,000 inhabitants
is called a village, and the residents,
particularly those of the lower class, are
extremely anxious to be taught from the
gospel, enduring the torture of those
who persecute them for. the eake of their
religion. This sho gives as her reason
for being so enthusiastic in the work of
foreign missions, claiming that at home
thousands are taught from the pulpit
and in other ways day after day who
care nothing for their privileges and fail
to improve them, while in heathen
countries those who sit in darkness are
groping after the light and anxious to be
taught. She also made the assertation
that it was not a selfish motive which
prompts them to accept the teachings
offered. In one instance while at work
in the famine district, a cumber of their
converts had preferred starvation to
making their wants known. The Indian
costume and a number of pictures which
Mrs. Prautch had for inspection, at
tracted much attention.
- At this morning's session an open
parliament took place and election of
officers was held. There will be no ses
sion this evening. Tomorrow morning
at 10 a love feast will be held, and at 11
o'clock Rev. F. Spaulding will preach
the annual sermon, Rev. Fisher speak
ing on Hawaii in the evening.

with which to purchase the desired
libraries, and urging them to begin woik
at once :
"At the Annual Teachers' Institute,
held in The Dalles, September 7tb, 8th
and 9th, 1898, the question of the need
of school libraries and supplimentary
reading matter in our public schools
was fully discussed. It was the general
consensus of opinion that the children
are illy supplied with good reading mat
ter suitable to their grades, while the
book shelves of our stores are groaning
under their load ot suitable books cheap
enough to be within the reach of all.
"There are over 4,000 children of
school age in this county, and only a
small per cent, of them are supplied
with school literature suitable to their
ages. This is certainly a most deplor
ably condition to exist in a land of
plenty. Let us remove this evil and be
gin now." w
