Rev. Braekhus must find It rather
awkward to pray for some members of
the Lutherans, for they are rather skep
tical; and It is profcably Just as awkward
for the skeptical ones to pray for some
good to come out of his work here.
V. W. Raymond, of Slclpanon, is dan

apoplexy, followed by partial paralysis,
a day or two ago. Dr. Walker visited

When a man stops you on the street
and offers you a good cigar, or invites
you Into a wet-goods store and asks
you "What'U you have?" you may
know he Is a candidate, or wants to be
one. They're always pathetic about this
time of the year.

Robert Collyer tells the story of a

convenience of the carriers in deliver
ing mall. Heretofore tne carriers ivc
been compelled to use twine in securing
the different packages of letters ana
papers, arid as each letter or paper
taken out of its respective package the
carrier Is either compelled to re-fasten
the string or run the risk of dropping
some of the letters. The department in-
tends to stop the using of twine for this
purpose in the different offices through-
out the country, as the following ex-
tract from the Postal Record will show:
An investigation recently made by
the free-delivery division develops the tie matter could have been easily ar
fact that a great quantity of twine is ranged. The real reason, however, for
annually consumed by letter carriers in
tying up and routing mail for delivery,
Reports show that 274,000 poundti of
twine were used by letter carriers last
year, an average of about 23 pounds
per caroler. Inasmuch as the twine
used costs 7.3 cents per pound, this rep-
resents a yearly outlay of about $20,-
000.
"This large expenditure for twine can
be dispensed with by furnishing car-
riers with straps. A quantity or straps
sufficient to supply all carriers with an
average of four straps, will cost $5,000.
As the life of a strap, considering wear,
tsar and loss, may be safely estimated
at four years, the cost per annum will
be between $1,200 and $1,500. This
a mount, as against $20,000 for twine,
will show a net saving to the govern-
ment of $18,000 to $19,000.
"Straps have been used by the car-
riers at the Washington city postofflce
for a number of years, and it has been
demonstrated beyond question that they
are a positive convenience, as well as a
saver of time.
'On July 1, 1894, every free-delivery
offlee should be furnished with a quan-
tit y of straps sufficient to amply sup-
piy eacn carrier, ana alter mat aace
the use of twine by letter carriers be
prohibited."

Dick Marion Cannot Be Regarded As
An Obstructionist.
Knfi-.Hr,., r,r K - ,t
a coinnusstcn t csacura ths right-of-way
ior me nponnc fj Bear Creek. II. R
- Marlon yesterday stated to an Astoriun
.qirtntmauve mat on account of the
commission having Instituted proceed
lngs to have the right-of-way condemn
is ed through the timber land which is
owned by Charles Wright and himself,
an Impression had gone abroad that he
was obstructing the work. This Mr.
Marion denies, and explains that the
only difference that existed between the
commission and himself as to the value
or tne Umber which would be cut down
in building the road, together with the
land itself, was $100, and that that lit-
the Institution of suit lay in the fact
that the interest which he represents
In the land is held in trust for the bene-
nt of his minor children, and Mr. Bowl
by had decided that the courts would
have to be appealed to before any trans-
fer could be made of the required strip.
"No one," said Mr. Marion, "would
more gladly see the work begun than
myself, and I have instructed my law-
yer, Judge Taylor, to take no steps to
prevent a settlement of the case. I
know that the expenditure of the monev
in the hands of the commission will do
a great deal of good In this city and
the sooner lb is disbursed the better
pleased I'll be."
The commissioners have shown a dis-
position to treat all the land owners
along the rote with fairness, and It is
safe to assume that the courts will not
allow any more compensation than has
already been offered those from wrom
deeds for the right-of-way have been
asked,
When a given quantity of timber Is
cut off a claim, the decrease in vni.m
of the remainder is not measured ex-
actly by the proportion that has been
removed, for the reason that a logging
road, once built, can be used fnr tho
hauling of millions of feet, Just as
readily as It cn for bringing a few hun
dred thousand feet to the water. This
point has been raised by the owners of
land, but due allowance for all cnnsM-
eratlons has been made by the commls
sion, ana, as above stated If suits are
brought, they will inevitably result in
the defendants getting less compensa-
tion than that which they are offered.
and in addition, their loss will also be
increased by the amount of their at
torney's fees.

An Enthusiastic Meeting at Kearney
Hall Last Evening.
Kearney's hall was packed to the
doors last evening by an enthusiastic
audience, the occasion being the first
meeting of the Scandinavian Young
PeoP'e's Society Minerva since the out
raeTeous attacks of the "Inspired"
Braekhus upon It and Its alms and ob-
long' ones." The leaders of the debate
on the side of short engagements ad
vanced the sounder reasons, and were
declared victorious.
The next meeting will be held in
Kearney's hall ot next Wednesday
evening, for which occasion a splendid
program has been prepared.
On account of repairing, the street
cars will not, run from 7:30 Thursday
evening until 4 o'clock Friday after

Every seat In the Y. M. C. A. hall was
occupied. Ia3t night by those who came
to hear Evangelist Ford. Mr. Ford's
text was: "Let the wicked forsake his
way," Isaiah lv, 7. He preached a most
eloquent and forcible eermop on social
purity, and admonished hjs audience,
especially the Christians, to extend a
sympathizing and helping hand to the
fallen apd lost, "The pitiful story of
some who are in our own city," he
said, "the victim of the hard times,
would melt the hardest heart. Many
who are now following a life of sin
have been well brought up; some show
evidences of r,ulture and refinement,
but are living tiius, because they have
no other means of subsistence, and
there are vampires who take advantage
of their condition. Others have learned
their first lessons In the bon-ton homes,
where they were taught the fashion
able but Innocent airiujments. ' The
BPi'mr appealed to the Christians to
vote as they pray, and to the wives and
sisters to plead with their husbands and
brothers to vote aright, and In due
