power and importance of the memory.
A very large congrecation was present,
and gave the speaker the closest and
most careful attention. The service
was opened with prayer by Dr George
K. Morris, and the hymn, "Oh, cease I
speak the matchless worth." Dr. Mor
ris also read the evening lesson which
was the parable of the rich man and

concerns of Portland is that Messrs
Matlock & Stewart have made no mis
take in the selection of Lone Rock as a
busines point. The Gazette has furn
ished the new firm with a complete out
fit of printed stationery and circulars

dicting him one of Eastern Oregos
most successful business men in the
near future.
