aesang verein Concert.

The German Singing Society Harmo-
ME will give a grand concert tomorrow
evening at the opera house. The noted
Vienna comedian, Joseph Mueller, has
been engaged for the evening, and will
sing some new songs fresh from Vienna.
An Ogden exchange has the following to
say concerning him:
"Prof. Mueller is to be congratulated
on the success which attended the con-
cert given by him in the Turn Verein
hall last night. The hall was well filled
in every part, and the audience thor
oughly enjoyed the entertainment, judg-
ing by the frequent outbursts of ap-
plause. The professor was rendered a
hearty reception. Each turn was loudly
encored, and there is no doubt but what
he has made decided hit IN Ogden as
a character comedian"

almost as dark as night, owing to dust
flying and revolving in the air, and even
in this protected valley it was almost
impossible for the pedestrian to make
any headway against the wind.
Out in the country trees without num-
Der were twisted and uprooted, and
dozens of barns were blown over and as
many barn roofs blown off.
On Pine Creek the roofs were blown
off the barns of Lewellyn Hale and Fred
Hale and off that of Charlie Clarno on
the John Day. The top of Ed. Lees hay
stack was blown off and about 200 yards
of Dick Hamilton's fence was scattered
over the road. A stretch of fencing on
the Hilton ranch was also laid low.
At Mayville the damage consisted of a
few upset outhouses.
DIR. Howard had a narrow escape while
coming up out of 30-Mile on his way
home from Lost Valley. Trees were
falling all around, and monster dead
tree suddenly, without a moments
warning, crashed down across the road
directly in front of the doctor. He was
not hurt, only three-fourths scared to
death.

as the news of the death spread there
were universal expressions of sorrow.
During his pastorate here he made many
warm friends. who esteemed him for his
high character, and who will revere his
memory. The Oregonian says:
Grey. W. L. MacEwan, rector of st.
Marks Episcopal church, died last even
ing at his home, 80 Twentieth street, of
pneumonia, after an illness of five days.
His death was quite unexpected. for, al
though he was very sick, his physicians
at o'clock last evening thought that he
was improving. He leaves widow and
three minor children. Deceased was
one of the best known Episcopal clergy
men in the Northwest. He was native
of Oregon, having been born at Clatsop,
43 years ago. His father, R. S. Mac
Evan, crossed the plains in 1851, and
settled in Clatsop county, where he still
resides.
"Rev. Mr.. McEwan was educated in
California and the East, after graduating
from Bishop Scott Academy. After his
ordination, he commenced work in The

years, afterward removing to Walla
Walla, where he remained for one year.
When st. Marks parish was formed,
eight years ago, he was called to take
charge of the little chapel, and so sue
cessful was he in his pastorate that it is
today one of the best known churches in
the city.
''No arrangements have yet been made
for the funeral, owing to the absence
from the city of Bishop Morris, who was
very close friend of the deceased, and
who will doubtless desire to look after
the matter. Bishop Morris is expected
home today"

A Terrific storm.


The worst wind storm ever expert
enced in this county struck Condor
Monday evening about o'clock. Dan
gerous heavy black clouds were seen ap-
preaching from the southwest about 8
O'Clock, and almost in less time than it
takes to bat an eye, fearful tornado
struck the town with all the fury of
million demons. To add to it's terror it
carried with it such a mixture of real
estate, clods, chips and boards that
nothing else could be seen, and for about
three minutes our people must have
thought the judgment day had arrived
at last. Buildings swayed and cracked
like rife reports and for few seconds it
looked as if the town would be swept
from the face of the earth.
But within five minutes from the
time it began the worst OF it was over,
and then the work of destruction could
be seen. Our beautiful new Congrega-
tional church was completely wrecked,
being tilted over on one side, and can
never be used again until it is torn down
and rebuilt. The new organ in it was
also ruined. None of the dwelling
houses in town were destroyed, but the
roof of L. W. Darling's barn was blown
off; the woodhouse of w. L. Barker was
blown over and rolled several rods, as
was also W. A. Goodwin's smokehouse
and the Globes woodshed; the brick
f1ue in Bill Dunlap's house was blown
off, also the stovepipes of several other
houses. The large sign on the livery
stable of johnson & Wilcox was also
blown down. For awhile the Globe fac
tory seemed to want to take wings and
hy away, but perhaps it was the paper's
powerful influence that held it down.
Anyway it didn't go, we are pleased to
state. Some fellow jokingly remarked
that good way to insure it against be
ing blown away would be to put heavy
mortgage on it to hold it down--a lux
ury which it doesn't enjoy at present.
(But perhaps right here is good place
to remark that unless some of our delin-
quent ''pungle up" pretty soon we may
be obliged to put on coat of that kind
of stuff.
The only damage we have heard of in
the country is that Dan Rinehart's new
house on his homestead, three miles
east of town was blown over, also the
new schoolhouse on VIM. Campbelrs
place, where j. A NcMorris was teach
ing at the time. Luckily no one was in
either of the buildings at the time. The
course of the storm does not seem to
have covered scope of country over ten
or fifteen miles wide, but was considera.

of damage was done at the latter place

concerning the storm there:

The above is very efficient remedy for
che San Jose Scale and Curl Leaf of the
Peach, and is an excellent fertilizer for
the trees. 1t not only destroys the scale
and prevents the spread of the curl leaf,
but removes all lichens and keeps the
bark soft.
In the case of curl leaf, the greatest
good will result from the early spraying,
as it prevents to large degree the DOR
mant spores of this parasitic fungus
coming to life, and destroys any that
may have started.
DIRECTIONS.
To be most successful, this spray
should be applied just before the buds
swell in the spring. 1t can be used at
this time stronger than later, and should
be thrown upon the trees when it is
warm.

Mr.. QUIRK CAME BACK.


Members of the well-known Christian
Hill Owl Club were nearly paralyEed last
evening when Mr.. Il. Quirk sauntered into
the club room, twirling his moustache
complacentiy and remsrking that IL any
of the boys thought they could best him
at seven-up they were at liberty to try 1t.
"Well, you're . cool one" remarked one
of the Owls. "We thought you were out
in Scranton, Pennsylvania, or somewhere
about there"
"What In thunder's brought you back
20 soon 2" demanded another of the Owls.
"Must be very chilly out in Scranton"
suggested q third.
"May be it's the girl he left behind
that's brought him back" remarked an
Owl who was sitting by himself over in a
far corner drinking q hot Scotch out OF q
beer glass.
At this, Mr.. Quirk, who had paid no
attention to the preceding railleries,
blushsd violently, and when the club
members started up singing Sweet
Marie" he looked really EN- barra ssed.
The club proposes to take immediate
action on Mr.. Quirk's case. 1t appears
that for two months past he has been
making arrangements to leave Providence
and locate In Scranton, and on Thursday
night his brother Owls gave him a royal
send of, set up the broiled live Holsters,
presented him q seal ring bearing a
big owl cut In solid glass and put him
aboard the train for Scranton. What was
their surprise, then, when Mr.. Quirk
turned up screneiy Friday evening and al
lowed that Scranton wasn't in it with
Providence as place TO live in.
He subsequently confessed, however, to
O member Of the investigating committee
that his best girl wanted him here.
The club members are divided in opinion
whether to-make Quirk pay for his send
off or write a letter TO Sweet Marie asking
her to let him go. They are unanimously
OF the opinion that they have been ''done"
out of supper to say nothing of the seal
ring with the glass cameo, and they are
indignant accordingly.

As the messenger was marched away,
protesting against the injustice Of his
treatment for obeying orders. a staff
officer rode up. Taking the major apart,
he instructed him to let the applicants
go through, provided they would take
an oath not TO give any information con-
corning the Union troops to the enemy.
With the passes be brought a suggestion
from the general to send some person

of the enemy. Now that the main army

IL the cavalry on its flank had fallen
