An enthusiastic meeting.

The council chamber was filled Satur-
day with an enthusiastic assemblage
which had gathered to complete the or
eanization of club whose objects just
at present are better known than its
name. The meeting was called to order
by the president, J. S. Schenck, and the
results of the trustees labors were an
nounced. Propositions concerning a
building were received from the Mich
Lum bering Company. After much dis
cussion it was was decided that the
second story of the building occupied by
the LAUNDERING Company should be
leased under a temporary arrangement
and fitted up to suit the purposes of the
club.
When it came to selecting name for
the organization an amusing debate was
carried on between some of the mem
bers. Three names were proposed
Commercial" "Quinette'' and "Dal-
was0re," the latter being combination
made from the first three letters of the
words Dalles, Wasco and Oregon. AS
Cn0 mdIIoT VI CHOOSlHS q udulo Was OOA-
sidered to be very important one, it
was finally decided to postpone further
action upon the subject till Tuesday
evening, until which time the meeting
adjourned.
The attendance was very satisfactory.
the number of business men represented
being very large. Much interest and
enthusiasm was shown throughout all
the proceedings,and it can be safely said
that the establishment of the club upon
basis that will prove successful is as
eured. During the interval till Tuesday
night it SIS expected that the bright
minds of the club will be busy evolving
name that will prove pleasing tt
everyone. As soon as this matter is de
cided upon the articles of incorporation
will be forwarded to Salem, and it il
expected that work will Immediately b.
begun upon the fitting up of the club
quarters.

did not announce any text the discourse
was upon the theme "The Power Of God
Unto Salvation" The cross was a
stumbling block unto the Jews and a
piece Of foolishness to the Greeks. The
old Jewish religion while containing
many good things was lacking in
the one essential to supply which Christ
was sent into the world. The God of
the Hebrews was God of authority,
reverence and law moro than of loye.
The test of a business man is the inter-
est and devotion which he puts into his
work while the ardor with which a
student pursues the subject of his inves-
tigation shows his love for it. The same
test shows whether or not the Christian
is devoted heart and soul to the belief he
has declared. The sermon was an able
one and listened to with great interest
by all who heard it. The singing by
the choir was very fine.
The attendance at the other churches
morning and evening is reported very
good. In the afternoon Prof. Riddell
delivered free lecture at the Methodist
church which was largely attended.

Last evening about 5: 80 persons on
the street noticed bright light in the
direction OF Dry Hollow. 1t could be
told that some house or barn was
afire, but just where was not learned till
this morning. The scene of the confa-
grafton was about three miles from town,
where a house belonging to Marshall
Hill was burned. The building was &C.
cupied by family named Walker, new
comers to Wasco county from the Will
lamette valley. The origin of the fire is
mystery, as when the family left home
at noon to do some visiting, everything
was all right and the fire did not occur
till several hours later. The loss to the
Walkers is complete, as everything they
had was burned. All their furniture,
clothing, bedding, etc, was destroyed, so
the family is without shelter or suitable
provision for the winter.

by Rev. VIM. Michel, the uncle of the

effect. The ceremony was simple, but

ENFORCING THE LAW AGAIN.
Edmunds Act Offenders TO Be Ar
rested Upon Warrant

The first case under the Edmunds Utah
act, since its provisions were sustained
by the court OF appeals, was brought TO
the attention of the police court yester-
day, and q warrant issued for the two de-
PENDANTS.
Phillip Mills, colored preacher, said to
to be pastor of Mount Airy Baptist Church,
and Mrs. Elizabeth Davis, also colored,
living at No. 725 Princeton street, were ar
rested about o'clock in 4 room, together.
Under the provisions OF the law, If q
single man and q married woman live as
man and wife, 1t is q crime for both, diff
fering from the old laws that made it
crime only for the woman. Mills was the
single man in this case, the woman being
the married.
1t is very probable that this case Will be
Immediately followed by great many
others, as the police say that there are
vast number of colored people and the
poorer classes of whites, who are living to-
gether in violation of the law. The penalty
is term in the penitentiary, varying in
length from two to five years.
Policemen Creagh and wiggans, who
made the arrests, will have the defendants
before Judge Miller Monday for a pre-
llIninary hearing.

YoUNG's WILL Is VALID.
Sealed verdics of the Jury Settles
the Contest.

the Contest.
The Jury IN the contestover the win ofthe
late james E. Young, made by his brother,
Thomas E. Young, yesterday brought in
q sealed verdict sustaining the will.
Their answers were that Mr.. Young was
of sound mind when the will was made, and
no undue influence was eIerted upon him.
The question of fraud was not really In
volved, though a formal answer was made
that no fraud was practced.
A. L. Worthington. in closing the case for
Thomas Young, said the will OF James E.
Young was made st time when Mr.. Young
was no longer able to sign his own name.
The signature was by proxy.
For months James Young had been
practically demented. He couldn't remem-
Der whether he had eaten his dinner and
would demand 8 second dinner fifteen
minutes after he had finished a hearty
meal. He saw the phantom OF old DR..
Gray at night; Quarreled with his neigh
bors; shot one in the foot; struck Dr..
Cotter over the head with board; went
about shooting and striking man and beast
with a vindictiveness that could come
only out of a disordered mind.
Then it was claimed Mr.. Young was
always shrewd about his business af.
fairs. The truth was he did all sorts OF
wild things. He paid negro boy S1.25
day for half an hours work. The boy
testified that he thought it was funny,
but it Twas soft enough snap for him."
and he said nothing.
For more than q year before his death
Mr.. Young couldn't get his own money from
the Bank of Washington, without an order
from ''brother Bill or somebody else.
Judge Cole, charging the jury, said IL was
agreed by both parties there was no fraud.
and the jury should answer the statutory
interrogatory on that potntss'No." For
the rest the burden of proof was upon tho
party attempting to break the will. The
law presumed mental soundness on the part
of the testator till the opposite was proved.
Mr. Young died October 1e, 1899, and
his will was made October l, preceding.
The testator lived IN Virginia and had re-
tired from business here a number of years
before his death. He had quarrel with his
brother Thomas. His property, worth $780,
600, was left to his brothers, VIM A.
Young and the late John NJ. Young, to Mrs
Margaret L. Gaddis. q niece, with small
bequests to others.

The Unity Club, well known social and
literary organization, has split.
1t is divided into two factions, one OF
which charges that the recently elected
president, d. G. Haywood, employed un-
fair means to procure the honor. Adherents
of this side have added the word Original

The Original Unity Club held a meeting
at the Litchfteld on Thursday evening

that there had been some discussion on the
part OF q few dissatisfied members as to

been issued, explaining the situation, and
calling the members together for the first
time this season.
The circular wasstgnedby d. C. Haywood,
president, and r. A. Phillips, treasurer,
and stated that 1.-The former president OF

the club should be instructed to cast a vote
by ballot for the whole club. The hour be-

accusers TO produce evidence to the con-
trary, that be never did anything to his
knowledge TO influence such election, and
that no member of his family, nor any per-

purpose"
Mr. Haywood, with the object of ceas-
ing all disu nifty, rendered his resigna-
uon as president. The club were, however,
satisfied with their choice, and refused to
accept the resignation, and in ratification

MR.. MANDERsoN's ARG UMENr.
Sugar Bounty Case Considered To-day
by Secretary Carlisle.

Under the agreement made Friday with
Secretary Carlisle, ex-senator Manderson
appeared before the Secretary yesterday
afternoon and argued the sugar bounty
case.
Mr. Manderson submitted a printed brief
covering In detail the points to which he
referred but briefly In his oral argument.
Stripped of itslegal verbiage Mr.. Mander-
sons argument is that the law passed by
Congress providing for the payment of the
bounty is later than the Dockery law im-
posing alleged superior powers on the
Comptroller of the Treasury; that it is q
special act, and more binding in its effect
than laws granting authority general in
character. He ignored the ct of the Comp
troller in sending the case to the court of
claims on the ground that having no iuris-
diction, his act must, perforce, be Illegal
and totally void.
His second point, upon which he laid
great stress, was the absence of authority
vested even in the Secretary to send the
claimants to the court of claims.
