One of Mr.. Twiggs' little daughters

To show that interest in Puget Sound
fisheries is increasing. gentleman. at

A very pleasant time was had at
the Episcopal entertainment last eve.
as per programme The attendance
was large, and the novel features of
the occasion lent Zest it would not
otherwise have had.
Rev. Lee. Congregationalist minister
in Portland, recently announced from
the pulpit strong sympathy with the
movement to expel Chinese by force
from the country. He also denounced
Mrs. Hampson, the lady evangelist,
because lie thought the Bible taught
that women should keep silent in the
churches. Rev. Chan Hon Fan, an
educated, intelligent Cbinaman, an
ordained minister in the NJ. Z. church,
answered Mr.. Lee in a communication
to the OregOnidH, putting him to utter
confusion On the monaghan problem,
while Mrs. Hampson's wonderful success
in Portland was sufficient answer to his
TRADE against women. The OregOnian,
commenting on the matter, suggests that
unless the women and the Cinnamon can
be kept out of the pulpits such ministers
as Rev. Lee may be compelled to go to
housework or saving wood.
A gentleman living between Discovery
and Leland has offered white men S25
per acre, and tools found, for clearing
land that Cinnamon offer to clear for $50
an re and find their own tools. The
job has beer looked at by white laborers,
anxious to get work. but they decline
it. Yesterday young fellow in this
town put up pItiful story about having
just arrived from Seattle, looking for
work, having had nothing to eat for p
hours, etc. His dinner was paid for by
the editor of this paper, with the under
standing that he was to have a job to
saw up cord of wood in the afternoon.
He eagerly accepted the offer, and did
ample justice to the dinner, but after
that his appetite FOR work must have
diminished. as he skipped OUT and has
not been seen since. We merely mention
these incidents to illustrate the difficulties
people encounter in getting rid of China
men. There are altogether too many
men hunting for work and praying they
may not find it.
REVIVAL MEETING.-Rev. J. n. Den
lson conducted two services yesterday al
the Methods. Episcopal church. The
subject OF the afternoon 4 o'clock meet
ing was: "Our salvation is not by meri-
| torious obedience to the law, but through
faith in Jesus Christ" Roman Y, 4-1O
In the evening after an opening song
service, led by Rev Dr. Sturgis, Mr..
DenisoH read and commeicd on the first
few verses of st. Johns gospel chapter
XIV, illustrating the necessity of union
with Christ as the branch is united tC
the vine, and showing that this union
necessitates the constant bringing forth
OF more fruit by the Christian. The
sermon was founded on Explosions V
IL. awake thou that sleepest, and artist
from the dead, and Christ shall give
thee light" l. The sinner sleeps likt
one in burning building, he must wake
up. 2 He Is in a state Of lethargy Of
spirited death. like the person benumbet
with cold and Ieady to lie down IN the
Snow and perish, he must arise and d.
something. or eternal death is inevitable
3. Ii any sinner will awake from hi
sleep, and arouse himself from hi
stupor, Christ will give him light ant
life and salvation. 1t would be well i
all the Christians in town would attend
these meetings and take their uncoE
verted friends along. This may bs thei
ilast opportunity.
