PIQUES AND WELTS.
The demand for these goods is ever on the increase from
the fact that there is nothing produced that has the style,
beauty and character that is depicted in a well fitting suit,
skirt or waist of this fabric. A still greater redeeming
feature is in the fact that these goods do not crush and can
be laundered like a pocket handkerchief. They are found in
our stock both in vertical and horizontal stripes, also where
the two stripes are combined, making a decidedly novel and
stylish fabric. For this day only we will quote you ex
tremely low prices as a special inducement to purchase at
once.

The lateness of the summer season
having precluded even a thought of May

so they were invited to meet in the base
ment of the church last evening for a
general good time. The children were
delighted and few places were vacant
when the hour for their arrival was at
hand. A short time waa spent in sing
ing the favorite eongs and prayer was
offered by the pastor. Then the classes
were divided into sections, each teacher
taking bis or her place as captain. For
an hour or bo suitable games were
played and the children were supreme
ly happy, joining heartily in everything
suggested. They were then treated to
light refreshments and each con
cluded that an indoor picnic could be
e'njoyed almost as much aa the outdoor
one.

BENJAMIN FRANKLIN.
Prof. Lyuan Speaks la Regard to His
Life aud Its Influence In America.
Editor Chronicle : My visit in The
Dalles has drawn to a close, and ere I
depart I wish through the columns of
your paper to thus publicly express to
the members of "A Summer's Fancy"
Company, the press, and especially to
Judge G. C. Blakeley, my heartfelt
thanks and sincere appreciation of the
numerous courtesies and uniform kind
ness I have received at their hands. I
trust at no distant day to renew a
quaintainces so pleasantly begun and to
again have the pleasure of playing with
The Dalles amateurs. Once more with
assurances ot my regard and apprecia
tion, I am Very sincerely,
Pekcy H. Levin.
The Congregational church waa filled j
last eyening with a large and apprecia
tive audience, the occasion being the
lecture delivered by Professor W. D.
Lyman, of Whitman College, upon
"Benjamin Franklin."
The speaker was pleasingly introduced
by Prof. Gavin, who made a few brief
remarks upon the position Benjamin
Franklin occupies in American history.
Professor Lyman prefaced his re. Larks
by Borne pleasant references to The
Dalles, a place, he said, with which he
associated some happy reminiscences of
early days.
In treating of his theme the speaker
dwelt briefly upon eorne phases of
American national and individual life,
and said that different individuals rep-
tesented various types. In this con
nection Prof. Lyman mentioned Frank
lin, Alexander Hamilton, Daniel Web
ster, Abraham Lincoln and James
Rusell Lowell as each being the ex
pressive type of a different phase of the
life of the nation. The career of Frank
lin, t'irougb ail its wonderful changes
and experiences, the speaker traced in
a vivid brilliant manner which held the
very closest attention of the audience,
and gave an indication to many, which
they did not before possess, of what a
mighty part Benjamin Franklin played
n the formation of American institu
tions.
Mr. Lyman's address was replete with
humorous touches, while the whole was
couched in language simple and yet
eloquent in its imprcssiveness.
The lecture was delivered under the
auspices of the Taine claes, and was in
line with the university extension move
ment now carried on by many institu
tions of higher learning, and in which
Whitman College is taking a prominent
part. It was the expression of those
who heard bis address last evening that
the people of The Dalles would hope to
again listen to an address by Prof.
Lyman at some future time.
