"A BEAUTIFUL SABBATH.
One of the Perfect Days Fifty Ended in
Vesper Hymns.

Sunday was one of those perfect days
which sometimes comes in midsummer
when the air is full of the smoke of
burning forests; and that 1t was tuliy APP
preciated was evidenced by the number of
people who flocked to the beaches, or
wandered about over the hills and
through the woods From the top of the
hills a beautiful panorama greeted the
eye in every direction. The deep blue
waters of the Columbia, dotted here and
there with a SAN or steamer, the lines
of dark wooded shores, the sky streaked
with light clouds in fantastic shapes and
the glad warm sunlight above and
through all, was an antidote for adj the
blues and ills of life. Even the invalid,
confined by ailment to the house, could
drink in the warm bright air through the
open window and enjoy the general cheer
fulness of the day. In the late evening,
as if in benediction, the sun went down
into the sea in a great glory of rich
color seemingly to tell of beauties be-
yond the sky. Turning from the colors
of the sky, in response to the bells Of
Grace church, calling to vespers, the
whole day seemed rounded and completed
to the full. "If any of you lack wisdom,
let him ask of God, that giveth to all
men literally, and upbraideth not; and
IL shall be given him." The earnest words
of the rector, borne home and intensified
by the beautiful service, impressed the
listener that for all the good things OF llt;
There is some debt due from the creature
to the creator. The evening hymn, as
played by the master hand Of the organ
ist leading the voices of the few faithful
ones. was a sweetly solemn ending OF a
perfect day.

SUNDAY MUSIC.
Astorias Churches Well Supplied With
Good Voices

Strangers visiting Astoria are surprised
at tine superior music rendered in her
churches. 1t is worthy of note that for
town Of its size the class of music rem
dered by and the talent found in the
church choirs here is far better than the
average. Many beautiful voices are in all
of the churches, and all show careful
training and an earnest desire to excel
and render efficient support to the va
rious services.
Those who were at Grace Church Sun
day evening enjoyed rich treat. The
organist officiating was particularly hap
py in his selections and rendered them
with an artists touch. Easy and grace
ful execution, beautiful shading of the
delicate sentiments of the music and
powerful rendition of the bolder parts,
made the simplest hymns an expression
of true soul worship. The organ seems
to be mans instrument at which he must
excel by sheer excess of physical strength.
When ore listens to such players as
Falk and the great leaders of Cincinnati,
Baltimore and New York. all other music
sinks into insigniticance.
