Strangers have been plentiful in The

circus have attracted large crowds.
The judges for the bicycle parade
were T. A. Hudson, E. Schanno and Ed.
Martin. Harry Esping was given the
first prize of SO for the best decorated
wheel.
A lange number of people are in from
the country today witnessing the circus.
We are having second edition of the
Fourth of July, judging from the crowds
on the street.
The county court is still in session and
will probably not finish it's labors till

business has been done. A full report
will be published later.

right when it did come. All circus
parades are good deal alike and there
was the usual aggregation of painted
wagons, animals, clowns and gaily ap-
parallel men and women.
One of our bicyclists came wheeling
down the street today and just in front
OF McInerney's store met a chinaman.
There was a misunderstanding OF signals,
and in minute the young man, china
man and bicycle were a mixed up heap
in the street. 1t resulted in nothing
worse than furnishing amusement for
the passers by.
A number of bicyclists paraded the
streets last night with their wheels as
decorated for the fourth. They made
beautiful sight. All the wheels were
decorated with lighted Chinese candles
and made pretty effect. Especially
noticeable were the wheels of Harry Es-
ping, Joe Bonn, Charlie Fritz, Will
Nichols, j. f. Hartnett and Miss Flor
fence Hilton.
James Blakeney is in good humor to-
day, having come out victorious in the
contest for marshal. He has made
good officer during the past year and we
ars sure will serve the city well for
another term. There was some hard
work done for the different candidates
and Mayor Menefee will breathe easier
/ now, not having to be bothered by ap-
plIcations and friends who wanted to
say word in favor Of different candi-
dates.
The case of Lee Morehouss, charged
with larceny, was tried before Justice
DaYis yesterday. G. W. Phelps ap-
peared for the state and n. Fl. Gates for
the defendant. After hearing the testi-
mony the justice bound the prisoner
over to await the grand jury. Bonds
were placed at $3.50. Constable Urqu-
hart made clever capture in this case,
having tracked the man be was hunting
to Cascades and caught him when he
was about to take the boat to Portland.
The subject announced for services at
the tent this evening is ''The Sabbath of
the Bible" The questions ''Why was
the Sabbath institution given?' and
(Which day is the Sabbath?" will be
answered from the Scriptures. For
Sunday evening the subject will be ''The
Change of the Seventh Day to the First

audience may ask upon these important
themes will be answered with Christian
courtesy. All are cordially invited to
