A worthy minister at The Dalles recently in getting a meal at a hotel gaye the waiter a 50 cent piece for extra attention. That evening the waiter invested it in a game of faro and it kept growing until it broke the house. The next day the waiter struck the worthy man in the following manner: "That four bit piece of youra was a bird ; I no sooner cop pered her on the kiiii; than she won. and I kept getting action on the coin and finally uouuie-snoi-ine-turn and bled the house to the tune of a 'V.' " An Kvasuelical C'oi.leuk. At a special moating of the couference of the Evangelical Church held in Salem Friday it waa decided to eatablish an Evangelical College .some where in the State. Bids will bo received from the different cities and towua of the State far the aame. The Board conaiata of Kev J Boworsoi. Spokane : D Jones. Al bany ; E Woodward, Corvallia ; CC Poling. Salem ; J L Heratmer, Corvallia ; F S Louck, uaywn ; A uuell, i-ieasautdale. Given a Reception, Misa Bird Thompson, formerly of Salem and now of Corvallis, has been the quest of Mr. and Mrs Thompson during the past week, says Sunday's Statesman. Last night a number of her friends gathered at the Crawford residence on Commercial street, and passed the evening with her, renewing acquaint ance and enjoying various social pastimes. It was a very pleasant affair and was great ly enjoyed by all present The Oregon Development Company's new steamer, the "Yaquina Bay," arrived at the Buy lust Friday, 53 daya 9 hours from New York, when on account of se vere weather it remained outside the bar until yesterday evening. At 4: 15 it crossed the bar, in fair weather, in over twenty feet of water, t9wed by the staunch tug "Resolute." When about half a mile in side, being a little east of south of New port, It run on a sand-pit in the following manner, and under circumstances to show that no discredit can be placed on the Hay as a harbor: Mr. Lord, the pilot, who had run ths boat from New York, turned it oyer to Capt. Kc'.Icy, who has been in the employment of the Oregon Development Co. for several years, and it was under his pilotage when the accident happened. The tug was steaming along sounding from twenty to twenty-four feet. Kelley think ing it was not in the proper channel steered the "Yaquina Bay" considerably to the south. It was drawing 11 feet 10 inches of water. Just as the tug cried out twenty four feet by the mark, the steamer ran on the large sandspit that jula out from the south beach and stuck fast, until this morn ing, when at 5 o'clock, the water being at high tide, it was towed off. At the time there was a heavy wind from the north When off the spit and in the channel all right, the tow line broke and the wind swept the stcainci towards the south jetty It struck the rocks of the jetty about half way from the cast to the west end, near the south beach hotel. Our informant, a reliable gentleman who investigated the matter, who came over on the noon train, says there was no doubt that holes were stove in the bottom and that it was filling with water. It had careened towards the north and is undoubtedly a wreck. The "Yaquina Bay" was bought in New York recently tor i 75,000. It was feet long, 22 feet hold and was tlnelv equipped. It contained 250 tons of coal brought from Ncw.York for the company and 80 tons of merchandise shipped from dan f rancisco to valley merchants. The loss is a very 6crious one, not only to the company, though the boat was in sured, but as well to the valley at large, as vicious and jealous sections of the state will at once misconstrue the cause of the acci dent and lay the blame to the bav, when as nearly as we can learn it was simply a case 01 carelessness Among those of this city who had mer chandise on the steamer were the following, with the estimated value : S E Young, uoo, insured ; w f Kead. a?oo, injured L E Blain, $400, insured : M II Parker, $700 ; Parker Bros., $100 ; Conn Bros., S250 ; 1 Cohen, $130. aome are not cer tain whether their goods are insured or not,and It is not certain whether they will be lost. A despatch at 1 1 o'clock stated that some of them would probably be saved, J and it is possible the Bteamcr,on account of mc puaiiiuii 11 is 111, may iiul uc Mil ausuiuie wreck. Was Held. At the pieliminary ex amination of Gordon Cooper at Walla Walla for the murder of F. Davis, he was held without bail to await the action of the grand jury. It looks very much as if tiorden may die the way a brother did, only differently. Judge Lynch conducted mat ters In the case of the'brother, while Gor don will be givefl a regular trial. At Salfm. A crowded house greeted the Boston Quintetto Club last night,i.d Salem's m'isic-lcviug people were more than pleased. Misa Acne Carpenter, prima donna soprano, was heartily ensored each time. The quin tette of musical gentlemen are surely a para dox in the profession they have chosen. They deserve a column, but space forbida. Saleni StnteAmtXH.

Montetih&Sei their IMMENSE Call early before Stood Up. Last evening about 10 o'clock Oscar Marshall was passing along Washington Street near the U. P. Church when a couple men stepped in front of him and told him they wanted his money. He started to run, when two more men ap peared on the other side, Mr Marshall yelled, and the men cursed. Jas.

A Portland pap er writes up the manner in which the law yers ot that city dress, and says as a whole they are rather seedy. Here are a few of the descriptions of particular interest toAl. bany, being old residenters or well known here: Judge Bellinger was the first to plunge out in a silk hat; but look at it to day. He might as well, so far as looks go, wear a section of American imitation stove pipe. The finest part of Frank Paxton's dress is his beautiful sweep ef whisker, His open countenance has a charm about it that fetches the lady clients every time. Then that mild and persuasive eye and his easy manner, betoken good taste and high breeding. Hedresses well alwaysin dark hues and tapering tints.
