' f-plHoopal church hns lOaiion ever slnca the -T.-us projected, and for many jtars the ciasa was included in the Drowusviile circuit, the parsonage be-i lug located at llrownsvllle. The mem bii-ship ot the Ltdmnoti class being small, the chapel of the academy Vaa used by them, for many years, fv the purjHo of pubiio worship. In the year 1S83 Hev. J.M. Bweeney was appointed pastor of the Browns vine circuit. He found the Lebanon charge In a very unsatisfactory condl tion, and fat once set about trying to remedy it. lie determined that, with God's help, there should be a revival In Lebanon; so In November, 1885, he announced that there would be week of prayer, without any preaching. The prayer mcctingn were held at pri vale houses every day for a week. The church was revived and put in work lug order, denominational limn were laid aside, all took hold with a will and there were some bright conver sions during that week; then the re vival was commenced at the academy aud carried on for about alx weeks, re sulting In more than 100 conversions. Several ministers assisted Itev Sweeney lu the work, prominent among them being Itev. Shore 1 ud, who labored very effectively In the revival, and who subsequently went to Africa as a missionary and died there. In the year 18S8 the Lebanon class wss set olT as a m-pa rats station and Itev. V. M. Btarr was appointed pastor, During the pastorate of Itev. Htarr it xvas determined to build a bouse of worship In Icbanon, and a committee was appointed to select a sit and to solicit subscriptions for that purpose, Two lota were purchased and arrange ments made for bulldln. In the prlng and summer of 1837 the stone foundation was laid, aud in the fall of the ssme year the frame of the house was erected and inclosed. During the pregres3 of this work. Iter. Walton bklpworth was appointed to this charge, and as there waa no suitable house for him to occupy, the members of the class volunteered to furnish ma terial aud work, and in a short while a cosy parsonage was erected, the La dles' Aid Society contributing toward the furnishing of the building. Rev. Sklpworth took hold with m will and helped the work along. In the summer and fall of 1659 the work on the building 'was pushed to completion, and Dec. 30 was set for ledioation. In the meantime the La lies Aid Society, to whom be all boner and praise, was not Idle. By their own exertions, after assisting with the parsonage, they raised the necessary means to purchase some beautiful chandeliers and other lamps, three handsome chairs for the pulpit, and carpet for the pulpit, altar and alsl a of the church. The church also found many kind friends lu Portland, East Portland, Eugene alid elsewhere, wh , hrough the influence of Bev. H. 1 Wilson and Itev. C. A. McDonald, were induced to present the church with a fiue bell, a nice organ and sev eral copies of the Hymnal. On the 30th alt. at 11 o'clock Be v. 8. I. Wilson prenched a powerful dedi catory sermon, after which the report of the trustees was read, showing an indebtedness of $s6S 60 against the completed church. Mr. Wilson stated that it would be impojsiblj to dedicate the church with that indebtedness upon it, so a subscription was taken, and in lesa than half an hour $910 was subscribed and also a oolleetien of $10 was taken. Itev. 8 P. Wilson, assist d by Bev. Dr. Van 8ooy of Salem, Be; W. Sklpworth, Rev. J. R. Klrk patr ck, Iicv. G. W. Giboney aud Bev. Martin, proceeded with tho beautiful dedicatory service, and the Lebanon church was dedicated to the service of Almighty God. From the trustees' report wc find the amount raised by the original sub scription to be t!839 50 ; received from" the church extension fund, $250; last subscription, $910; Ladles' Aid 8ociety, $125; parsonage, and furniture, $200. Total cost of church, furniture, lots, parsouage, etc., $$,043. The trustees are: G. II. Bland, Jos. Elkins, Jas. Edwards, F. M. Miller. Z. T. Brvant, Bev. Trine, N. M. Follis, D. F. Hardmau and H.H.

We want to impress on the minds of the people of Leba non and vicinity that we have without doubt the best line of Boots and Shoos that has ever been shown in Lebanon, from tho cheapest to the boat made. There is no use to send away for goods in this line, as we propose to carry as tine a ine of sjoods as can be had in the valley; and the prices will be right, for we have bought them right. If goods can not be bought at the factories for cash at the right prices, when under the sun can they be bought right? WE MUST AND WILL SELL THEM CHEAP. We will name a few goods, that we are sure are as good value as can be bought any place: Cypale. Several families of Gypsies with live ! bears arrived in our town on Christmas day.
