TumWater - Personnel of the
Party.
The principal incident of the week
has been the visit OF delegates to the
general assembly of the United Pres
bvterian church, to he held at Albany,
Or, next week. They were expected
to arrive by the boat at 6 80, but came
by rail, arriving an hour earlier, which
somewhat disarranged the plans for
their reception.
During the day, however, the hall
occupied by the denomination in Hale
block had been beautifully decorated
by the Ladies' Aid Society Of the sew
eral churches, and bountiful repast
had been prepared, filling two long
tables on which covers had been placed
for 100 guests.
At Z 80 the visitors had assembled
at the hall, where a fraternal greeting
was extended by Rev. Mr.. WEIGH, in a
well-worded address, to which re-
Spouse was made by Rev. VIM. D.
Owens, ID. d., Secretary of the Board
OF Home Missions. The visitors were
welcomed, on behalf of the city, by
Mayor Mann, and the Rev. Thos. ID.
Hanna, ID. d., responded. Toasts were
offered and speeches made by several
Of our citizeus and their guests. A
vote OF thanks was rendered the ladies
for the hospitable preparations for
their entertainment.
A general reception followed the re-
past. when the visitors returned to
their cars for the night. Wednesday
morning the guests were entertained
at breakfast at the Olympia Hotel,
after which many OF the visitors viewed
the city from the courthouse tower,
while others were taken TO Tumwater
on the electric cars, while still others
looked over the city with the object of
selecting site for the church which
