The Missionary Entertainment
given by the Sunday School con
nected with the II. E. Church South
i'll this place, on Sunday evening
last, was 81 grand success. The
church was well filed, both in the
galleries and the main auditorium,
and the pulpit was decorated with
choice potted plants and flowers. The
exercises were opened with the sing
ing of the grand old missionary
hymn
From Grccnland's icy mountains"
which was followed: with prayer by
the pastor, Rev. w. G. EggIeston.-
After short responsive service, aud
singing by the choir, the main exer-
cises by the children began. These
consisted of beautiful little spiritual
songs, recitations, &c. Not being
able to catch the names of the pieces
from our seat in the rear of the
church and having no copy of the
programme in our possession, we are
unable to give them, or even the
names of all taking part. Beautiful
short solos were nicely rendered by
little Bessie Dooley, Ella Darlington,
Ada Dooley, Grace Morris and
Blanche Lunceford. The firstnamed,
Il wee tot of three years, cap
tivating all present by her charming
execution. The "Strait Gate was
beautiful. III this gate was erected
on the pulpit platform bearing the
words "Strait Gate Boys and
girls, one at time, then advanced
to the altar and exhibiting placards
recited an appropriate verse to
each. The placards were then
handed up and placed on either coll
umn OF the gate, showing the words
Christ Jesus" Repentance"
"Forgiveness,' Z" Love, Purity"
" Faith. . f." Works., /" Peace" and
"Rest.'' Above all, in especially
attractive letters, was shown esHea-
ven," which can only be entered
through the HStrait Gate" Miss
Evo EggIeston, who led the choir,
rendered very sweet solo. The
smaller scholars of the school, led by
Frank Dunlap, an excellent singer,
marched in single file around the
aisles of the church, singing of ''Pen-
ny Dropping" after which, four lit
tie boys passed around with tin cups
and took up liberal missionary col
lection. The classes made their re-
port on missionary contributions, Civ
ing an excellent showing, and the en-
tire missionary contributions of the
school, from all sources, for the year,
was announced at the highly credita-
BILE total of s137.29. No one pres
ent on Sunday night, we are quite
sure, could but be highly pleased
with the excellent entertainment, for
which all who took part are entitled
to much credit. The exercises were
conducted by the popular Superin-
tendent of the School, Mr.. o. NJ.
Darlington.

FNfD it ever occur to you that there is as

as in other lines of goods? If not, then we de-
sire to say to yOu that there is.
In these days of adultcrated articles of food,
beth liquid and solid some Brewers are as
. smart, " or we had better say as " unscrup-
ulons. as many other manufacturers of food
products. and now resort TO the Introduction
for the sake of "a few extra dollars profit, of iu-
gradients into the manufacture of their Brew

The Worlds Railroad Sleepers.

The six principal railway compa-

sleepers per day, or S,s50,0O0 per
annum. In the United States the
consumption amounts TO $4,000, 600
sleepers "A year, which is equivalent
to the destruction of about 10000
acres Of forest. The annual con-
sumption of sleepers by the railways
of the world is estimated at 10000

the actual number.-New York Tel

NOT ONTO THE COMBINATIoN.-
A young gentleman from the histor-
lc hills of Juniper registered at the
Golden Rule last evening, and pro-
cured bed in the dormitory says
the East Oregonian. After brush
ing the hayseed from his flowing
locks, loosening his "galluses," and
otherwise preparing for bed, he pro-
ceeded To blow out the electric light.
After eXpending enough wind to
fill the sails of whole brainful of
political aspirations without succeed
ing IN "dousing the glim," he seized
his hat and wildly waved it about
the "gosh-durned thing" This also
failing to reduce the light TO dark
ness, he caught onto the fact that
something was wrong, as the other
dodgers in the dormitory were hav-
iDH n good laugh at his expense, and
retired much discomtitted.
