Having concluded two series of .Sunday lectures, in the interest of i those who attend church service in the t evening, he now announces a morning t series on "The Parables of Christ." The,we are informed, will bo treated ' in a popular way. He certainly chooses 'a beautiful portion of tho gospel from vi which to impart instruction, and we think we see in the proposal a purpose to j, meet, at least half way, the unmistakable . demand of the times. All teaching that ; is 'forcible, that arrests" attention and fixes" truth in the minds of men, must largely be illustrative. Christ spoke by .? parables, and this, doubtless, was why so 'joany heard him gladly. The promised t series will be inaugurated this morning, ( and the parable chosen for the occasion fc. is that of "The Talents." - The delicious Crescent Creamery But v ter for sale at Wyatt & Thompson's.

The rain fell in unceasing torrents last evening, and an ordinary performance would have played to a beggarly account of empty benches, but despite the storm every seat in Occidental hall was filled, the occasion being tho second entertain ment given by Rescue Jubilee troupe. On the rendition of ''Among the Break ers' the first time a large part of tho au dience recognizing the spirit with which the several characters sustained their parts requested that tho performance bo repeated. Accordingly, when tho curtain rolled up last evening that fine drama was presented in splendid style to one of the largest imlieuces ever gathered in Astoria. That Astoria possesses dramatic talent of a superior order has often been demon strated, but seldom has there been evinced such universal appreciation of the fact as was shown last evening. Second only in interest to tho drama which was repeatedly applauded, was tho olio which followed. The first to appear was B. S. Worsley, in his inimitable make up as n darkev in "Swing Low Sweet Chariot,' followed byF. D.Blake, who sang the beautiful ballad of "Loreua," and responded to an encore by a recita tion "Tho Tramp.' E. Clough then sans 'Ta"ko me back to Home and Mother," and being vociferously called back, again insisted on being taken home to mother and disappeared. A. A. Cleveland in humorous verse recited the troubles of a much diseased man and the course of treatment prescribed, after which Paul Parker appeared in a song and dsnce,"ln the Sunlight." John Fox as "Moriarty" elicited hearty ap plause, and some gigantic floral tributes, which after responding to tin encore with "Mary Kelley's Beau,"' ho carried from the stage. 'Flv Across the Ocean" was then sung by John P. Betts, who when encored sang "Jnanita."' Where all did well it would he invidious to dis criminate, but it is tho opinion of many that the last singer left nothing to bo de sired in the way of vocal niolody. Both entertainments have constituted a grand success, and when next tho troupe give a series of entertainments thoy will secure, a good house on the repu tation so justly won. Postpone J. Inconsequence of the week of i raver meeting being held in the Presbyterian Church to-morrow evening, the meeting of the directors of the Astoria Seamen's Friend Society, which was to have met in the same place and at the same hour, is postponed till Monday evening, Janu ary 14th. at the same place.

About one o'clock yesterday morning Lars Peterson and another man started homoward to ward Union town and shortly after pass ing Trulliuger'rt house and while this side of tho Cutting Packing Co.'s premi ses they met four men who at first stood aside to let them pass. As they wero about going by, the group of four separated, two going on each side the roadway. One of tho four said as he bumped against Peterson "'excuse me, damn you," then drawing what appeared to bo an iron bar he dealt Peterson a fearful blow on the fore part of the head, cutting the scalp to the bono and prostrating tho un fortunate man. His companion was un able to render any assistance, and when Peterson recovered consciousness he found his pockets empty, having been robbed of 20 in gold and a few dollars in silver. At a later hour he had Dr. Baker dress the wound which is a severe one. Nothing is as jet known regaiding the perpetrators of tho assault. Phesi'NTAtion'. Yesterday afternoon a party of gentlemen assembled at Alex. Campbell's and one of tho number pre sented him with an elegant jewel case accompanied by the following remarks: "Friend Campbell: Our late lamented president Garfield said -The wine cup has been recognized in all ages as the emblem of hospitality and friendship. In drinking this toast we indorse the sentiment and pledge you a continuation of the friendship wo have hitherto cherished for you, believing thai 3ou will in the future remain as true to your friends as you have been in the past." In testimony of your kindness wo present you this little badge.' Tho case on be ing opened displayed a handsome gold shield on which was engraved "A. Camp bell; from nis many menus, as we journey through life let us live by the way." " The reception of the costly gift was a complete surprise to tho recipient who in fitting terms expressed his grati fication for the kindly feeling that prompted the gift and his appreciation of tho sentiment it conveyed and the torm in which it was bestowed.

Murder 3Ist Foul. About eight o'clock last evening the attention of several passers by was startled by a succession of shrieks that rang out in bhrill and startling distinct ness on the eveuing air. They appeared to proceed from the rear of Jeffs restaurant, and rushing into the kitchen the affrighted spectators beheld the proprietor and four stalwart assist ants with glittering knives butchering sundry turkevs and chickens for to day's dinner, the bill of tare for which is here appended : DIXKER BILL OF FA1M' SODP Giblet FISH, Mackerel.

Adjourned to Mondav, January 7th, 189L Foreign Salmon X-rlet. Tho tone of tho market for salmon in Liverpool has boen decidedly dull, if al most entire neglect may be said to indi cate any tone at all. Most of the houses interested in the trade are too deeply occupied with dried fruit and other Christmas season produce to pay just attention to canned goods. John West's salmon, which we noted as being of fine quality, has been secured for this season by a large house here, as also has the favorite brand of J. Williams & Co. by another firm. Two or three small lot's of second-rate brands have been picked up, but, with tho exception of the brands montioned, it mav bo taken for granted that nearly the whole of tho new season's salmon will bo warehoused by tho im porters. Another account in connection with this most important branch of busi ness, says tho arrivals this season are not so numerous as at this time last year, and the shipments from tho salmon ports will bo more widely distributed throughout this season, thus overcrowd ing will be-avoided. The quality is not quite equal to tho average, as some tins open soft, as though overcooked, and consequently lack flavor. The low price of hog meats appears to affect demand somewhat, and tho attention now given to dried fruits by grocers also lessens the volume of trade at present. For Columbia-river the quotations are from 23? Gd to 25s Gd. Liverpool Corr.London Grocer. Substantial Recognition. At tho time of the stranding of tho Queen of the Pacific on the 4th of last September, prompt and efficient aid was rendered by Al. Harris, in charge of tho life-saving station at Ft. Canby, who, with his bravo crew, put off to the immediate relief of tho vessel and the hundreds of passengers thereon. All that day and through the night thoy worked, some of them to tho point of exhaustion, and stayed by the vessel till all likelihood of danger was passed. The owners of the vessel inrecog nition of their valuable services, mado provisions for substantially recognizing their services at the time. In further recognition of their services on that oc casion additional compensation is now tendered as indicated by tho following letter: OmoK or the 1 Oregon Railway & Navigation' Co., !
