The meeting at the Christian church
last evening was well attended. Rev.
Jlardinir's subject was "The Infallible
Way," which was handled in a very
clear and logical manner. His black

his subject in such a clear and concise
manner that "a wayfaring man though
a fool, need not err therein." The sub
ject for tonight is "Il.umony of thoGos

At tho suggestion of Rev. U. F. Hawk,
who since his residence in The Dalles
has taken particular interest in locating
points of historic interest in their rela
tion to the first Methodiet missions, a
company ol about twenty-five persons,
members of tho M. E. church of this
city, pioneer residents and members of
the Oregon Historical Society, accom
panied by Rev. Dr. Hines, paid a visit
yesterday afternoon to the site of the
first building erected on the Methodist
mission grounds at this place, which
was used as an Indian school. The
building dates back to 1838, a time when
Daniel Lee had charge of the work. All
that remains of the structure is a part
of the foundation that is on a level with
tho surface of tho ground, but is easily
traced. The site is in the enclosure im
mediately across the street east from
the academy ground, or about twenty
feet west of what is known as sugar loaf
rock.
At tho Congregational church last
evening the services wore instructive
throughout. The theme of the address
was "Naauian, the Leper." While the
topic was an old one, tho applications
were new and practical. With all this
great Syrian's accomplishments and
victories, he was (lying of a loathsome
disease. The greatest general in all
Syria, soon he was to take his place
among the company of tho unclean.
The speaker set this great earthly cap
tain over against the modest, unassum
ing prophet of the Lord, who bade him
go wash in the Jordan seven times.
Obedience, tho touchstone of success,
was tho dominant lesson deducted from
the subject of Nuaman's relation to God,
through his servant, Elisha. The speak
er had the undivided attention of tho
congregation throughout his address.
The number given by tho male quartet
was plendldly rendered, and much en
joyed, One person announced allegiance
to God in the after service. Mr. Clapp
will' speak tonight on tbe "Two Thieves."
Mr. LanderB and Rev. Poling will sing
solos. A cordial invitation is extended
to all to attend these meetings.
Murderer Jren Arrested.
Jamee Green, who murdered Edson
V. Benjamin near Underwood's Laud
ing last Saturday night, was arrested
yeBterday by Sheriff John T. Totton. ot
Skamania county, Pros. Atty. Moor and
a third man whose name we could
not learn at a point about a mile
and a half from tbe scene of the murder.
Sheriff Totton had been on the trail of
the murderer from tho moment he first
learned of the commission of the crime.
While following Green's track over a
trail the murderer stepped out from be
hind the trunk of a largo tree and quiet
ly permitted himself to be placed under
arrest. Green was armed with a 45.1)0
rifle, besides a six shooter and forty or
fifty rounds of ammunition.
Sherff Totten would have taken him
to the Weudorf ranch, the place of the
murder, but Green protested that he
would never be taken there alive,
and the sheriff, in consideration that
tbi man had given himself up quietly,
llowed him to havo his way, and the
party went direct to tho residence of the
justice, where Green waiyed examina
tion and was bound oyer without bail.
On the way to the justice, in answer to
a direct question by the sheriff, Green
confessed that he was tlio man who shot
Benjamin ; but when asked why he did
it he teplied that he would tell later on.
Green denied emphatically that ho had
intended to kill Mrs. Nellie Brown.
As Skamania county has no safe jail
accommodations, Green was brought
across tho river to bo taken to Vancou
ver, but as tho stay at Hood River in
volved a delay of six or eight hours, the
sheriff thought it best to take tho first
passing train and come to The Dulles,
where the prisoner was ulloted a cell in
the county jail till tho arrival of the first
west-bound passenger, when he was put
on board and taken to Vancouver.
