BISHOP LEES WELCOME.

Services At the Opera AOuse-A
Large Gathering or Little Felix's.
Last evening the Opera House was
filed with children brought together
for the purpose Of welcoming Bishop
Lee back from his recent visit to Europe
The children were scholars Of the var
ious Episcopal churches Of this city
81. Andrews, Trinity, Old swsdes, St.
Johns and Calvary and St. Augustine
Chapel Of Augustine mills.
There were some fifteen or twenty
clergymsn on the rostrum, among them
being Rsv.Mr. Littell Of st.John church,
Rev. Mr.. Stone of Newark, Rev. Mr..
Clemson Of Claymont, Rev. Mr.. Gibson
from Dover, Rev. Mr.. Wild from Della
ware City, Rev. Mr.. Latimer Of Phila-
delphia, Rev. DR.. Frost Of Trinity
church, Rev. Mr.. johnson from Sussex
County, Rev. Mr.. Douglas Of George.
town, Rev. Mr.. Jefferis Of Newark, Rev.
DR.. Stevens Of Pennsylvania, Rev. DR..
Stevenson Of Grace N. Z. church, Rev.
Mr.. Plummer Of this city, and a num-
ber Of others from abroad.
Mr.. Kayne, assistant at st. Andrews
church, read scripture lesson, which
was succeeded by devotional exercises
by Rev. Mr.. Jefferis, Of Newark.
Rev. Mr.. Littell Of st. Johns church,
read the welcome which was sigaed qy
the different Sunday School Superin-
tendents.
This was followed by thanksgiving
hymn, composed for the occasion by a
lady Of st. Andrews church:
"Pra,se ye the Father Praise Him now,
For all tho blessings Of His hand.''
Bishop Lee was then introduced by
Rev. DR.. Frost Of Trinity church.
The Bishop spoke Of the pleasure it
afforded him to see SO many smiling
faces and To feel that those smiles
came from hearts that beat in recollec-
tion of him. Language failed TO express
the gratitude he felt. Although he had
many discomforts on his voyage, yet he
would undergo those discomforts a
thousand times were II to bring him
the privileges Of occasions such as
these. He had often felt during the
whole Of his sojourn that those "dear
people of Delaware would not forget
him !" and this gathering gives evil
dence that they have not.
The Bishop then alluded to the pro-
gress made by the church, after which
Rev. DR.. Stevens, Of the Diocese of
Pennsylvania, was introduced. Mr..
Stevens made illusions to his visit in
the other country and Of the high re-
gard the brethren there had for the
good Bishop of Delaware.
They all looked up to him, and the
advice and counsel he had given was
OF great value to the church at large.
He referred to the children and said
that with all the affection and ardor We
had for one another how careful we
should be when We have the little
ohildren--lambs Of the tock-gathered
together to be cared for. He also
spoke Of the training that is given
them by the Episcopal church, and
spoke of it as being beneficial and the
very thing needful.
The benediction was pronounced by
Rev. DR.. Stevens.
The choir, which was from Trinity,
was led by Prof. c. B. Rhoads. Mr..
Howell and Mr.. Parry presided at the
organ.

A Surprise.

While Mr.. Harry stradley, of COS
West Sd street, was preparing to retire
on last Wednesday evening, he was
startled by the tramping of many feet
on the outside of the house, then fol-
lowed the ringing of the bell several
times in succession. Surely something
must be The matter, thought larry,
and he speedily dispatched messenger
to the door. III walks a number of
friends, each bearing pack 9e of some
description. Looks Of surprise came
across the faces of the household, but
in due time matters were explained by
each person presenting Mr.. s. with a
testimonial of their good feeling in
honor of his birth day. Next in order
cam an examination Of the presents,
which were found to be both useful
and ornamental. While this was in
progress others were engaged in load
ing down tables, to which al were in
vited. Time passed merrily away until
a seasonable hour for dispensing, when
with many wishes for return Of happy
birth days, the guests departed, feeling
that they had spent an evening pleas
antly.

THE OREGON ELECTION.

Complete returns from the Oregon
election have not yet been received.
Sufficient is known. however, to war
rant the conclusion that the Republi-
cans have elected majority Of the
State ticket, while the Democrats have
elected the Congressman and ma
jority of the Legislature. This will
insure the election of Demo-
orat to succeed Hippell. Mitchell as
United States Senator for that State
after the 4th of next March. Iu East
ern Oregon, which is the Democratic
stronghold of the State, the State
ticket was badly beaten. The Demo.
cratic papers opposed it with might and
main. and the result shows their efforts
were not in vain. In Union the ma
iority against it is over LOO, and in
Baker it Is at least twice as much, yet
both these counties gave large MAORI
ties for the Democratic Congressional
aud Legislative tickets. 1t is said that
majority of the candidates for State
officers were nominated by corrupt
ring. which has been endeavoring to
CONTROL the Democratic party in the
State. aud on this, ring the Demo-
cratic papers brought their batteries
to bear with telling effect during the
campaign, and the people finished the
work at the polls. The time Is past
when the nominees of conventions run
by rings can hope to succeed on elec-
ton day. and the Union Sentinel and
other Democratic papers in Eastern
Oregan are entitled to great credit for
their fearless attack on selfish ring.
whose power and influence it is to be
hoped they have ended forever.

Anderson's ReIiab iIity as IA Witness.
CHICAGO, June 5.
The Tribune's Washington special
says, regarding Anderson cross-exam-
ination yesterday: As to the question
of intimidations. his statements were
utterly ireconcilable. He admitted and
denied. affirmed and readmitted, that
there was intimidation. Finally-he
acknowledged that substantially many
of the principal portions of his Senate
evidence was true, and that there was
such violence and intimidation before
the election In East Eeliciana as to make
Republican meetings practically i'm
possible. Anderson strenuonsly main
tanned that he did not swear to the pro-
test which was presented to the Return
ing Board, and that he omitted from it
the words Republican and Democrat
ic " His own theory as to this would
indicate. that at that early day he was
planning. to make himself useful to
whichever party should pay the most.
