Arm strong was a gamy man, but Ryan was the more clever in ducking, etc. The contest was a very edenttnc one from a pugilistic point of view. At ithe end of the stxMi round Ryan was awarded the decision. So good was Mie set-to that the management gave them 76 per cent instead of the 60 per cent of the receipts as agreed upon.

Various Proceedings Had Charge to the Grand Jury. The circuit court, Judge MOBrlde on the bench, oonvened yesterday. A Jarge num ber of people were in attendance, and a number of cases were callled. Judge McBride, after opening court, de livered tihe following charge to the grand Jury: "Among those matters that should re ceive your special attention are those laws whldh relate to tihe protection of our great fishing Interests on the Columbia river. The salmon industry is second to no other In dmportance to the peopte of Oregon and Washington. "While the exportation Of grain prob. ably , produces a greater gross income, yet each bushel exported represents a material portion of ithe fertility of the soil, which is sent to foreign countries and stands as a net loss never returned. The salmon, on the contrary, Is reared and bred in-the ocean, requiring no ex. pendlture in its production and uu toss in Its exportation; every dollar received from that source represents so much dear gain to the community, wlhose salm on are caught and prepared for market and this profit each year amounts not only to Uhousamds, but Trtllllona of dol lars. These flsh are the common property of the people of Oregon and Washington and the preservation and protection of this source of weaMih is a matter that should b? carefully looked after by both com munities. ' "By the law admitting ithCs state Into the Union, tihe courts of Oregon are given concurrent Jurisdiction with those of Washington on the waters of the Col umbia river and, in respect to these Wa. tors, either state has the right to pass such, laws as Ht shall see fit for the pro. taction of fishing Industries on the Col. umbl-a river. , "This state has paissed a law prohibiting fishing on said river betiwen the hours of 6 o'clock p. en. on Saturday night and 6 o'clock p. m. on Sunday night. - , "This Is a fair and reasonable regula. tion, and one that should be enforced. I am informed -that it is frequently vio lated both by persons fishing with gill net-s and by those fishing with traps, and particularly those persona whose traps are situated on the north side of itthe Columbia river deny the right of this state to legislate on Ithe subject beyond the middle of ttoe main channel of the Columbia and in defiance of our Just and reasonable laws, such traps are engaged In Ashing on Sunday during the close season. "I instruct you that such laws of thi& state are In foros up to the line of low water mark oa the north, bank of. the Columbia river and that anyone fishing on Sunday within tlhese limits is UabCs to (indictment and punishment In. the courts of 'this state. And In view of the great importance of this Industry and the necessity of preventing Its destruction by 'the lawless disregard of our laws, regulating the close season, I call these reported infractions of the law to your attention and trust that your action will be such as to deter evil minded persons from further violation of these statutes." The case against J. W .Hare sheriff, In th. matter of the Wade Hampton Smith property was taken up and1 argued and taken under advisement. , In tine suit of the A. and C. R. R. R. vs. H. W. Corbtitt et. al., Mr. Corbett's attorney, Judge Stmhan, of Portland, filed an affidavit for a change of venue Cn which It was alleged that She people of Clatsop county had" been so prejudiced by the newspapers of Astoria against him that he couCd not secure a fair trial In said county. Copies of the papers were filed in evidence. Sheriff Hare yeeterfday morning at an early hiour arrested John Service and Jas. BanneMi for contempt of court In the fish trap case between Cook, of Ollnlton, and Warren; of CathCamet, over the possession of the Fitspaitirlck seining grounds. The case' will probably come up today. A number of motions were made in other cases, . SUNDAY FISHING. Oonrmiax'oneir McOmire and Sheriff Hare Make a Haul. StaJte Commissioner McGulre and Sfaer. iff Hure patrolled the river Sunday to see who were breaking the Sunday fishing law. They took the numbers, of 26 traps which were fishing, and arrested Chas, Werken and O. MaUson, Ithe owners of trap No, 2i8, supposed to really belong to Mc Go wan-. Information will be at once laid against all of the traps today. Every trap in Baker's Bay was fishing, but no g'.H netters were caught there was not a boat on the river. It is believed that the grand Jury wEl lnvCct the men arrested, fend it fas hoped by Commissioner McGutre that habeas corpus proceedings wilt be commenced to test the question ot Jurisdiction between the states of Oregon and Washington, HOTEL ARRIVALS.

The reports in tihe address were encour aging for Hull year as the last lias been. The confirmations with, one excep tion were larger than those of any other year. The misaioTKory work in Oregon has grown In almost every direction, partlcu larly In the nedgihlborhood of the city of Portland, where two new churches have been built and two more are under way for completion this summer. The number of clergy is 16, with two only in the whole pant of tihe state east of the Cas cade mountains. The Woman's Auxiliary amd the Junior Auxiliary to ithe Board of Missions, have done good, work in offerings and boxes during the past twelve months, and the St, Andrews Brotherhood ties widely ex. tended tlx usefulness of the church among young men. The schools, considering the dullness of the times are in prosperous condition, both as considering the number of pu rxls end the financial condition. The Good Samaritan Hospital treated within on or two as many patients as last year 989 which was then reported to hav been one-half as many cs were treated by St. Luke's, in New York City. Fully one-third of tf e were free patients, an other third were part pay, only one-third being full pay. All of these represent nearly every- nation and religious creed.. The 'btehop, taid great stress on the subject of much of the papular preaching of the day, .nl denounced as he should hare done the preaching of anything in our churches excepting the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. He also warned the members of the rtunrh f bl kt hy so one or more steps too far tn the maxcer of en tertainments for raising money for church purposes, and advised the con vention to draw up suitable resolutions thanking the House of Bishops for tbetr timely .-Warning and encouraging comfort In their pastoral leJter put forth last No. V erniberi touching the fundamental veri ties of the falith, viz:, the incarnation and Resurrection of our Lord, end the In spiration of Holy Scriptures. All the clergy except one were present, and a fair delegation of laymen, Mr. fi. Folger, of Pont'jartd, was elected s:creta ry and he appointed the Rev. W. E. Pot wine assistant secretary. Deputies to the General Convention, which meets in Minneapolis in October next, were elected as follows: The Rev. Geo. B. VanWatens, of Port land, Rev. W.E. Potwine, of Pendleton, Rev. Chaa Booth, of Newport, Rev. Wm. Seymour Short, of Astoria; the lay men elected were Mr. S. H. Gruber, of Portland, Mr. John McCracken, of Port land, Prof. J. D. Letcher, of Corvallls, Dr. Jay Tuttle, of Astoria. The other elections remained as lost year, with few exceptions. The members of the standing committee which is the ecclesiastical authority of the church, -in the absence of the bishop, were chos en as follows: The Rev. Geo. B. Van Waters, Rev. W. E. Potwine, Rev. Wm. Seymour Short, Mr. J. S. Reed, Dr. S. E. Joseph!, Prof. J. D. Letcher. The church was admirably, arranged for the work of the convention, and the vestrymen of Stv Mark's greatly facilitat ed the work by thelr'painstaklng prepara tions.

AT GRACE CHURCH. Morning Service an Elaboration of the Theme of Trinity Sunday. At Grace church' Sunday morning, by request, the Rev. Mr. - Short again de livered hie sermon of Trinity Sunday eve. The' text was taken from. the 17th verse of the 23rd chapter of Isaiah, "The King In His Beauty." The first article Of religion in the prayer book states that there are three persons in the God-head, the trinity of Father, Son and Holy Ghost three- persons In one substance. " The speaker dwelt upon the beauties of the Trinity in One, stating that tihe Identical words of the prayer book had been in use for over 1,500 years and that the mystery of the Trinity was one of the accepted doctrines of the Holy Catholic church, trusted and tried. In the course of his sermon the speaker quoted -that beautiful poem of John Keble's, which well expresses the cen tral .thought of the trinity: Creator, Savior, strengthening Guide, Now on Thy mercy's ocean wide Far out of sight we seem to glide. Help us, each hour, with Readier eye To search the deepening mystery, The wonders of Thy sea' and sky. The blessed angiets look and long To praise Thee with a worthier song. And yet our silence does Thee wrong. Along the church's central epace The sacred weeks, w.'th unfelt pace, Have borne us from grace to grace. As travelers on- some woodland height, When wlnltry suns are gleaming bright, Lose In erch'd glades their tangled By glimpses such as dreamers loves Through her gray veil the leafless grove Shows -where the distant shadows rove; Such trembling Joy the soul o'erawes As ne'arer to Thy ehrlne she draws: And now before the choir we pause. The door Is clos'd but eoflt and deep Around the awful arches sweep Such airs as. soothe a hermit's sleep. From each carv'd nook and f re-tied bend Cornce and gaClery seem to s.-.d Tones that with seraph hymns might blend. . Three sotann parts together twine In hanmoairy's mysterious line: Three eoCemn austea (approach th. Ehrlne. Yeit are One together all. In thoughts that awe but not appall, Teach the adoring heart to fall. Within these walls each fluttering guest , Is gently lur'd to one rate nest Without, 'tis moaniing and unrest. The busy worCti a ithousand Ways Is hurrying by, nor never stays To catch a nolle of Thy dear pralee. Why tarries not her chariot wheel, That o'er her with no vain aipp;al One gust of heaven!y song might steal. Alas! for her Thy opening flowers Uiiheeded breathe to summers showers, Unheard the music of Thy bowers. What echoes from the sacred dome The selflsh spirit may o'ercome That will not hear of love or home! The heart that scorned a father's care. How can it rise -.n filial prayer? How an all-seeing Guardian bear? Or how shall envious brethren own A brother on ith' eternal throne, Their Father's Joy, their hope Ulone? How shall Thy Spirit's gracious wile The sullen brow of gloom begu.le. That frowns on sweet affection's emile? Eternal One, Almlghlty Trine! (Since Thou art ours, and we are Thine) By all Thy love did once resign. By all the grace Thy heavens still hide, We pray Thee, keep us at Thy side. Creator, Savior, strengthening Guide! AT THE CONGREGATIONAL. How do the CongregaWonaiilsts dift:t from other Christian churches? The Episcopalian, Presbyterian, and Methodist churches ore all highly organ ised communions; they have archbishops and bishops, convocation and synods, conferences and assembles. They have theological standards, authorized cate chisms, confessions and creeds, to which appeals may be made In times of contro versy. Nothing Is left haphazard. Every thing Is in black and white. Now from all this Congregationalism takes a sharp end decisive departure. It is e democratic form of church govern ment. I't derives Its name from the prominence which it gives to the cotigre. gaition of Christian believers. It vests all ecclesiastical power (under Christ), In the associated brotherhood of each local church as an independent body. Its fundamental principle is the follow ing: The Bible, interpreted by sanctified common sense, with all wise helps from nature, from history, from all knowledge, and especially from the revealing Spirit, is the only, and sufficient, and authorita tive guide in all matters of Christian practice, as Ot is in ail matftera of Christian faith; so that whatever the B.ble 4eaches by precept, exampie, or le. gttlmMe Inference, . Is imperative upon aH men, at all times; while nothing which it doea not so teach can be Imperative at any ttme. Beside this on! fundamental principle, we have other subordinate principles: O) Any company of people believing themselves to be, and publicly professing thernsetires to be Christians, associated by voluntary compact, on gospel prin ciple for Christian work and worship, ia a true church of Christ. (2) Every member of such a church has equal essential rights, powers, and priv tleges. wth every other member; and the membership together, by majority vote . I,. io-tuf ami Antv nf ehooainr all necessary officers, of admitting, dismiss. Ing and disciplining their own fnembers, and of transacting ell other appropriate business or a viktouiuii tuu.v... (3) Evt-ry such church is Independent -of any outward Jurisdiction or control, iri-Am nevnaa. matriarchs, arch- - bishops, bishops, or others assum.ng to-,. be vkreregentB or jnrii ; ircrm auy blies, synods, presbyteries, conventions, associations , of councils, assuming to speak in the name of the church; or from any other churches, baing answerable di rectly and only to Christ, Its Head; and every such church is on e level of in herent genuineness, dignity, and author ity with every other church on earth. (4) A fraternal fellowship thouid be -maintained by these equal and Independ ent churches, with affectionate careful ness or each other's soundness of doc trine, and general welfare, the strong ever eager to aid the weak, and members of. Christ's great family. .MERCURY REACHES 118 DEGREES. Record of Sunday at MInonk, Ill.-iHot , Wave in Other Places. MInonk, 111., June 9.
