Mr. Totwine lias had a call to Hono lulu from Bishop Kesterick, of Honolu lu, who was a clasbmato in college of his, and it is with lasting regret to the communicants of the church that he has at last signified his intention of ac cepting the call, and will leave here some time in the spring.

Tot wine, who for 22 years has been the rector of the Episcopal church at Pendleton, and who is well known in Heppner, has dfc'ared his in tention of resigning his pastorate, and is going to the Sandwich Islands. Twenty-two years ago in July Mr. Tot wine came to Pendleton, and ae 6'imed the charge of the then small con gregation that went to make up the Church of the Redeemer in Pendleton. It was his first charge, as he had just loft the divinity school of "Trinity," and it is greatly owing to his untiring energy and zeal that the parish has grown from a missionary to a self sup porting parish, and as the congregation outgrew the old frame building that had done service a8 a church for so long, Mr. Potwine conceived the idea of con structing a new church of larger di mensions, and more 6uited in every way to the growing congregation and, after several years of toil in the way of se curing funds, his efforts were rewarded, I'or CJrcnt American Navy. Washington, January 14. The Na tional Association of Naval Militia met today to frame a basis for legislation to promote the naval militia of the coun try. Later the 50 delegates present called on President Roosevelt. The President greeted the delegates cor dially, and delivered a brief address to th em on their work. He said : "I have a peculiar interest, and I think I may say knowledge of the naval militia, and of the work that it has done. When I was Assistant Secretary of the Navy the interests of the naval militia came peculiarly within my prov ince. I am particularly glad to see you here, and 1 most earnestly hope that you will be able to harmonize any small differences of opinion among you and work for a common end. It is with the naval militia as it is with the National Guard generally. If they can decide definitely what they want and agree upon It, we can come pretty near put ting their policy through, while if there is a disagreement it is an extremely difficult thing to obtain proper legisla tion or administration. "It is not necessary for me to say to a body like this that the position of the United States as a great world power and her ability to maintain with dignity any self-respect, her position in the world at large, depend primarily upon the efficiency of her navy, and that you by the work you do in the naval militia, can contribute as no other body of civ ilians on land can possibly contribute to make that efficiency reach a high standard." in ay Fire Theater. Chicago, January 14. As soon as the Con ner'n jury releases its control of the Iroquois Tneater, the plavhouse will be again given over to the flames, if plans evolved by Mayor Harrison and Walter F. Fisher of the City Club, are carried. Experts who will fight over again the Iroquois conflagration will have trained firelighters at their elbows to see that the demonstration of the plan does not bring about any property loss outside the partially ruined playhouse. The purpose of again firing the theater is to test the sufficiency of city ordinacces, present and prospective. At. a conference today between Mayor Harrison and Mr. Fisher this subject was discussed exhaustively, and it wbs decided that nothing that had been done in Chicago for many years would approaoh this plan in the amount of good for the public that would result. With men who understand every detail of the test io watch every action of the flames and gases, and to regu'ate effects by the manipulation 'of the ventilators and doors, it was urged that the benefits to accrue from the fire test would be practically inestimable. With the Iro quois stage filled with excelsior and rubbish, and a fire raging thereon, the condition being like those of the fatal afternoon of December 30, the experts expect to learn a great deal about the flames that swept so inany live1) away. J. R. Freeman, an expert, on fire, will be a6ked to take charge of the test. Herbert Spencer' C urious M ill. London, Jan. 14. Herbert Spencer's will is a curious document, ft directs that his body shall be placed in a colli n with a loose lid and cremat'd and the ashes buried, all without any species of religions ceremony. All the tights and pr operty in his books and investments are given to the trustees, Honorable Auberon Herbert, Dr. Henry Charlton Bastian and David Duncan, with in structions to employ the yearly revenue "in resuming and continuing during Buch period as may be needed for fur-thering-my express wishes, but not ex ceeding the life time of all descendants of Queen Victoria, who shall be living at my decease, and of the survivors of them and for 21 years after the death of such survivor, the publication of the existing parts of my descriptive so ciology and the compilation and publi cation of the fresh parts thereof upon the plan followed in the paits already published." Afterward all copyrights, stereotype plates, etc, are to be auctioned and the proceeds divided among a number of scientific societies. The will orders that Herbert Spencer's autobiography is to be published simul taneously in Great Britain and the United States and requests David Dun can to write a biography in one volume of modern size. Another interesting clause is : "(live to Charles Holme, son of my j late friend, George Holme (;f Derby, in remembrance of his father having saved my life when a boy, the watch present ed to me by friends in Boston, U. S A., and so inscribed, together with the at tached chain ; and I hope, the legatee may think it well to keep it in his family as an heirloom." In a codicil, Mr. Spencer reiterfcted his objection to the metric system Hnd expresses the desire that whenever a bill shall be introduced in parliament on the subject his pamphlet against the system shall be reprinted and distrib uted to the members of parliament. There has been for many years a large amount of canned and pickled salmon sold in the markets of Europe each sea son, and the demand there for ourtooth Bine tifsh, already extensive, is con stantly growing. In fact, many of the packers look to those countries for the tale of the greater portion of their product. Ttiere. however, appears now to be a demand for the fresh fish and undoubtedly the trade in that line will reach large figures within a very few years. Frozen fish have been shipped from the Columbia River to the cities on the Atlantic coast for some time. Under present methods ot refrigeration it is as practicable to ship fresh fish to Germany or England as it is to New York, and if the cost of transportation is not too great there is no reason why the fresh fish from the coast may not be made as popular in foreign countries as the canned and pickled products are. Astoria Budget. Hocr Colony l or tlon tmiii. St. Faul, January 14 Arrangements are almost completed for establishing a Boer colony in Montana.
