ANOTHER WHITE HOUSE BABY,


The birth of Esther Cleveland at the ex-
ecutive mansion viii take from Julia Grant,
the frst.born grandchild of President
Grant, her position as the latest born of the
daughters of the White House, but it can.
not rob her of her position as one who is
doing honor to the place which gave her
birth, writes Alice Graham McColln in a
sketch, with portrait, of General Grants
Eldest Grandchild'' in the February Ladies
Home Journal.
On June 7, 1876, Julia, the child of Gen
eral Grants eldest son, Frederick Dent, and
his wife, Ida Honore, was born at the ex-
ecutive mansion. A month later she was
christened in the same building. The baby
was given but one name, Julia, in honor of
her paternal grandmother, her maternal
grandmother, Mrs. Honore, with President
Grant acting as sponsors.

DIR. PLUMBERS DISCOURSE.
Brief Resume of His Sermon to
the 0. A. c. Football Eleven
Sunday Evening.

DIR. George F. Plummer preached last
Sunday evening upon the topic, "Athletics
from Christian Standpoint" The O. A.
Q. football team and many other young
men interested in athletic sports were in at
tendance. The doctor is logical and earn
est speaker and his words were listened to
with the closest attention. The excellent
music rendered had been especially selected
for the occasion. The. following is brief
synopsis of the sermon:
The Christian church has always com.
batted the materialistic theory that all in
life is dust-dirt. All that is true in that
| philosophy was taught by Moses 2,OOC
years ago. We must be taught by example
and precept. There are examples that man
seeking true theory of life can not afford
to ignore. st. Paul put his body unde,
| subsection to his religious convictions.
May God help US to learn something from
| that great man. We cannot contend with
the ills of life unless we have some ideal.
There are spiritual victories as well as ma
terial. There are spiritual athletes as well
as physical. The good man is not the work
OF chance, but the result of combat against
evil-the result of spiritual training Many
a man who never finched at the cannon's
mouth was deferred from doing manly aci
| by the fear of filings from his mates. Many
good men who dare and do many remarka.
able things in athletic games are afraid tc
pray to the author of their being. rejoice
to see young man who brings his body W
to state of comparative perfection, but il
is grievous thing if he neglects to beaut-
ify the inner man. Each man training fol
athletic games has some special defect te
overcome. The swift runner does not neeo
to so train for feetness as the man who il
slow. Every man has his particular mora
weakness to overcome. Some must fight 8
tendency to lie; others to steal; some, ex
cesses of the appetite. A horrible thing i.
doubt. We must light against it. Trair
our bodies and our souls for the fight anG
we will gain the victory. Paul's life was
| fght-a hard fght-but we have his owl
words that testify to his victory: 81 hav.
fought good fight l have finished my
caurse; I have kept the faith: Hencefortf
there is laid up for me crown of righteous
ness, which the Lord, the righteous judge
shall give me at that day."
I can understand the enthusiasm that car
take hold of body of young men and sub
ject them to unusual privations, in orde1
| TO gain a little CT own of praise and honor
| But oh, how I wish the same enthusiasm
would seize them to fight the fight of life
to train their souls to make them Christian
gentlemen. The body is dust and to dust
returns with all its graces and all its defects
| but the soul lives on forever"

FROM LORD DUNRAvEN.

After the defeat of the English yacht
Valkyrie by the American vessel Vigi-
liant some months since, Mr.. J. Ber-
nard Walker. of this city, offered the dis
tinguished owner of the English craft some
suggestions concerning alterations that
might be made to advantage and received
the following courteous letter:

cup appears to have done so much to stimulate.
Very respectfully,

The letter is highly priced by Mr..
Walker, more on account of the signature
of the gentleman than otherwise, as it adds
another rare specimen to his already exten.

CHANGE OF FAITH.

An unusual incident took place yesterday
afternoon at the Christian church, Mr.. John
Will. the father of our well-known J. VIM.
Will, and Christina Will, his mother, now
respectively aged rs and IA years, after
having earnestly striven to live what is usu.
ally considered an honorable Christian life
for forty odd years, realized in a full sense
that baptism by immersion was essential.
Therefore, in obedience to the instructions
of our Savior, they were bapti ,ed into the
Household of Christ by Elder w. w.
Sharp, of Eugene, of the Seventh Day Ad-
ventist church, with which they united in
this city. The brief discourse of w. w.
Sharp before the immersion was clear
and instructive and was listened to with
deep interest by all the congregation pres

OUR MAN ABOUT TOWN.
Mixes Much Meaning Matter
for the Many Mirthful
Minds.

Corvallis has a justice-his name is Hol-
gate. He has his Office in the court house
and don't know when to 60 home to meals.
Last Monday afternoon he went over to his
Office, where he became deeply interested
in one of Bullwer's novels. That evening
about eight o'clock friend, seeing light
in his Office, concluded to call on His Honor,
but found both doors of the building Sc
curely locked. Going around to the win.
dow from whence issued the light the friend
enquired if the court was to be in session
all night. ''No," camel the reply, "Just
wait minute and l will 60 up town with
YOU" Putting on his overcoat he pro-
ceeded to the rear door, but found it locked.
This was also true of the front entrance.
The judge had no key and the only means
of egress afforded was through the window,
which was long distance from the ground,
but by means of ladder provided by the
pal outside landing was effected in safety.
The squire has since given notice to the
public that no business will be transacted
in his court after the janitor locks the
doors.
On learning that the o. A. c. football
team had challenged Stanford for game,
Bill Hsrtless sent in his unconditional resig'
nation, to take effect Immediately. He
claims he is going to..swear off; its too wet
game.
[Later.-The football team at the last
meeting considered the resignation of Mr.
Hairless and decided that they could not
dispense with his services and therefore re-
fused to accept the same.l

morning he was painless and penniless. The

give Billy chance, now that he's married
and settled down to business.
We told you some time ago about George
Waggoner's park of Denny pheasants.
Well, about four of them made their escape
the other day and an old cock was seen
down on the river front investigating the
surroundings and has not returned.
Henry Pape has always been democrat
and until recently boasted of the fact. 1t
was whispered to the Man About Town
that he was about to get on the fence and
study the question of political ecanomy.
As to what he will do after giving the sub
jsct due consideration is question, but
Jim Crow thinks that Henry will still keep
plodding along in the old democratic rut,
advocating his free trade theories.

WHEN WAR IS DECLARED.

Against mans happiness by his stomach
the enemy may be pacifed and brought
speedily and easily to terms. That potent
regulator of digestion, Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, dlsciplines the rebellious organ
thoroughly. Indigestion arises from weak
ness of the stomach and the food in it, for
want of the power to digest, decomposes
and acidifes, giving rise to heartburn, f,tu-
lence and pun, besides multitude of
symptoms both changeful and perplexing.
But peace soon reigns when the great
stomach1c is resorted to and used with per-
sistence. Dyspepsia gives rise to morbid
discomposure of mind, and even sleepless.
ness and hypochondria in chronic cases. To
the complete dismissal of these the Bitters
is fully adequate. Liver complaint, consti
patton, debility rheumatism AMI malaria are
completely subdued by this genial medicine.

COLLEGE NOTES.

Gigantic preparations are being made fol
the contest, which will positively take
place on the second of February. Every
one should come to hear the young ladies
and gentlemen of the Ciceronian society
make their debate and those of the Wei.
sterian society strengthen their former good
reputation.
A good musical organization ought to be q
credit to this institution, but strange to say
the cadet band is not receiving the support
it deserves The boys have been very con.
siderate and accommodating about furnishing
music and have always given satisfaction.
The members at present possess unusual
talent and it seems wrong to let this talent
on the very verge of death and unless some.
one comes to the rescue its death will be
soon. Why don't the college sustain a
band? Until it does it is in the rear of all
institutions of its kind.
The college male quartette, under the ef-
fcient direction of Prof. Berchtold, has be.
come quite popular and the improvement
of late has been marked. Several changes
have been made and it is at present com.
posed of the following members: First
tenor, ]. Fulton and M. r. johnson; sec.
ond tenor, A. Lambert and w. T. Lee;
