at the Christian church Last Night.

I A fair sized audience greeted Rev. H.
e. Monser last night at the Christian
church. Mr.. Monser is an eloquent
speaker and from the start held the
closest attention of the audience by the
force of his discourse. The lecturer be-
gan by referring to the happy day he
had just spent on the Columbia journey
ing from Portland to The Dalles and that
the associations would always remain
present in memory.
The subject was Chow Can the
Christian Endeavor Society Help the
Church?'' and with this question the
speaker discussed, how can it hurt the
church and the effect which the church
can have on the society. Mr.. Monser
gave shcrt resume of this wonderful
movement and in speaking of its critics,
described an old fashioned PRAYER meet
ing in manner that caused the audience
to smile. He showed how the Sunday
school committee had gone and brought
into the school thousands of scholars
and that many more are studying the
Bible today than bSfore the days of the
Christian Endeavor Society Work for
the church, is the motto of the younger
organization. The society he divided
into three parts: The eyes, or the
lookout committee; the soul, or the
pray er meeting committee; the heart,
or the social committee. Without all of
these the society would be poor thing
of little use. The society can help the
church by welcoming strangers and max
ing them feel at home; by taking up the
work of the church in Sunday school
and other lines and first and last always
keeping the pledge of the society. The
church can help by wise council and
advice. The pastor should be the leader.
The church can hurt the society by q
spirit of coldness.
The address was full of Instructive
thoughts which, well supplied with illus
trations, were striking. Mr.. Monser is a
fluent speaker and spoke entertainingly
for over an hour and half. Mr.. Monser
will lecture again Friday evening on
"NoveI Reading and will doubtless be
greeted by good audience.

Lane Mahafy, who was arrested sew
ieral days ago for issuing fictitious
checks, was brought before Justice Davis
yesterday for preliminary examination.
Mahafy had previously pleaded not
guilty and 1t was supposed he would
stand preliminary trial; but when the
time came he withdrew his plea of in
nocence and waived examination. In q
conversation with the justice Mahafiey
admitted that he had previously served
a term in the Oregon penitentiary and
was discharged about two months ago.
He had been cent up from Union county
for forgery under sentence for one year.
The prisoner at first was reluctant to
make this admission but finally did so.
The justice placed the bonds at $500, in
default of which Mahaffey was placed in
the county Jail to await the action of the
grand jury. The crime for which he is
charged is serious one and the position
in which Mahaffey finds himself is my
thing but comforting.

IL was scarcely possible to believe

A Railroads Costly Mistake.

The Great Western Railway, of Eng
land, has lately paid $4,000 to get re-
leased from the obligation to stop every
train AT Swindon for ten minutes. In
1871, before the road had reached Bris-
tol, it made an agreement for 30 years
with a firm OF builders to hold every
train carrying passengers ''not being
sent express or for special purposes for
reasonable period of about ten min
utes" at Swindon, in consideration OF
the erection of suitable refreshment
rooms, for which a rent of a penny n
year was to be paid. The railroad soon
found out the inconvenience of the ar
rangement and tried to break ii. The
Courts in 1916 and 1872 held that SEX
press did not mean in the contract
what is now meant by an express train,
bat the price asked for the annulment
| of the concession was always more
than the company was willing To pay.
/ After a fight of over fifty years it has
been driven by the composition of otheI
roads to buy in the contract, and the
teu-minute stop of fast expresses at
Swindon is now thing of the plst.

Protection for Witnesses.

During the trial Of a damage suit
against q street railway company yes

administer "a sharp rebuke TO the plain
tif-s counsel, who undertook to impute
improper motives to witnesses FOR the
defense. The case was the salt of
John McGilligan against the HcstOn-
Vile, Mantua * Fairmont Railway
Company for injuries sustained by the
plnintif on May II, 1895, by reason Of
one of the ears of the defendant COM
pany striking the rear OF one-hOrse
dray.
In addressing the jury, the counsel
for the plaintiff charged that one Of the
witnesses for the defendant company
had assuredly periured himself in the
interest ofthe company, and that an
other, who was a medical examiner Of
high social and professional standing,
had designedly told an untruih. the
plaintiffs counsel also charged that
the Traction companies conducted
their business in so apparently reck-
less "A manner as to show an entire dis
regard of human life, and then he
called upon the jury to disbelieve the
witnesses for the defendant because
they We're in the pay of the defendant

verdict the community and the plain

Judge Wilson interrupted the coun-
sci and suggested that such remarks
were entirely unwarraEted, AMI that

Hercules and the Hawk.

Some passengers over one OF the Ber-
lin Canal bridges the other day noticed
the sudden appearance Of two black
points in the sky at a considerable dis
tance away, which developed into two
ducks. Behind them, at lower level,
flew another bird, which Suddenly rose
into the air above the ducks, and then
shct down upon them like an arrow.
One OF the ducks flew sideways toward
the Thiergarten; the ether, closely pur-
sued by its enemy, flew slanting into
the canal, and, reaching the water ex-
actIy behind the bridge, dived, while
the hawk, in his blind haste, struck
agains the head of a statue OF Hercu-
les, and fell, once more Tapping lis
great wings, dead on the pavement OF
the bridge. The bird was splendid
specimen, the wings having an expan-
J sion Of more than three feet.

The Dethroned Baby.

During the first two years of our pill
grimage through life our troubles are
altogether of a physical nature. \
helpless baby i'm the hands of an ig-
nOrant mother or nurse il often the
most TO be pitied of all dumb animals,
bat its trials are those of the flesh. IL
is only after ii has been, as it were,
pushed out OF place by an interloper
in short, when there is newer baby,
that is begins TO know what it is to
have a troubled spirit. When it is no
longer Baby" but Harry or Jane or
perhaps even "that child, then begin
meth its first lesson in the mutations OF
earthly things. Talk Of dethroned
monarchs and passe beauties, of poets
whose popularity has waned and of
painters whose pictures no longer sell!
These have, like Tony Weiler's "werry
old' turkey, the consolation Of being
tough.
Ii is different with the little creature
who, only few short months ago,
ruled the roost in the nursery and now
must make way for-what? \ little
bald, red, toothless object, who, when
seen at the best does nothing bat double
its mottled fists and smile idiOticaliy.
But, little and Insignificant as it may
look, its coming has made the world a
very different place for the old baby,
who now no longer keeps its carriage,
hut i'm It's excursions abroad must
trudge along on its little feet, some
/ times having hard work to keep up
with nurse, while she has only fond
words for the carriages occupant, too
| often has cross ones for the stumbling
| little toddler at her side.
But. worst of all, the baby has been
ou,ted from its mothers lap and stands
unnoticed by her side, while visitors
rush at the new baby rs though they
would eat it and are then entertained
by accounts of its remarkable preeOciiy
what an astonishing baby it IS for it'
weeks. how wonderfully il takes notice,
etc. Guardians of the nursery, what
! you need is an invading host OF Susan
Nippers to put an end to this state Of
things. \ brand new baby Is all very
| well, but that il no reason why lis
| predecessor should be treated as if, in it,
own language. it wasn't nothing. -
