Almost a Sensation.

Last night stranger registered at one
of our leading hotels, and handed the
proprietor, who, by the way, is one of
the Oldest and best known hotel men in
the state, $3.50, the stranger saying at
the same time that in all probability he
would be drunk by morning, and in case
he should ask the hotel proprietor for
the money, it was not to be given him
until sober. This morning the stranger,
who had made his word good by getting
gloriously inebriated. came around and
wanted the money, which the proprIe-
tor, seeing his condition, refused 20 give
up, telling him to come around when
sober. So the man went out declaring
he would see lawyer and raise thunder
generally. The first attorneys Office he
struck happened to be the firm of Sin
mott & Sinnott, to whom he stated his
grievances. Marshal Blakenev was
called into action, and, armed with vari-
GUS papers, went to the hotel and asked
which one of the prOprietors he should
take into custody. The junior partner
insisted that the marshal should take
the senior partner to Jail, while the
latter, who by this time was wondering
what sort of a mess he had got into, tried
to get the younger one, who is well
known as an irresistible josher, to ex-
plain the matter. After considerable
fun, the $3.50 were dug up, and the at
torneys deducting their fee, the man
proceeded to get still further glorious on
what was left,

Proposed Lecture Course.

The ladies OF the Congregational church
have been busy for some time arranging
lecture course for the coming winter.
1t is the intention to secure some of the
best foreign talent to be found in the
state. Although the list is not yet COM
plete,a perusal of the following names of
people who will deliver lectures upon
different topics, will give some idea of
the treats in store for the people of The
Dalles:
From Portland will come Ex-Atty
General Geo. H. Williams, Judge L. l..
Macarthur, Hon. Thomas N. Strong,
Hon. D. P. Thompson, Col. James
Jackson, U. S. A; from Salem Rev. P.
S. Knight and Rev. w. G. Kantner !;
from Forest Grove Prof. Lloyd, of Pacific
University. Hon. John Michel of this
city, who is known as a speaker of abil-
ity, is also one of the lecturers. It is
expected MISE. w. Allen of Portland
will give lecture, aided by stereoptican
views. Several other distinguished
gentlemen are being written to, some of
whom will probably accept.
A winter lecture course is needed in
every town and it is hoped our citizens
will take hold of the matter heartily and
encourage the ladies of the church in
| their laudable efforts.

The coming season promises to be a
very lively one socially. Besides the re-
citaI to be given Thanksgiving evening,
which was announced yesterday, the
Home Dramatic Club will play for the
benefit of charity, Thanksgiving eve.
The club held meeting last evening to
consider a request to play and decided
to acquiesce. The piece put on will be
ga Night Off, comedy of great humor
which will undoubtedly draw a large
house. The parts have been assigned
and the club will begin practlcing at
once.
The first shipment of this seasons
wheat from Rockland went this morn
ing by the Regulator. Between six and
seven hundred sacks were on the dock
waiting to be taken aboard. 1t is ex-
pected another lot will be ready in a
short time. The freight business done
by the Regulator this week Is one of the
greatest for any week since the food
time of '94. Three boat loads of sheep,
one of hogs and today's shipment of
wheat make big record which will be
followed tomorrow by large miscellan-
eous cargo, which has been waiting sew
eral days for chance to go.
The Christian Endeavor Society of the
Congregational church are proposing
large things for the entertainment of
this community in the coming Decem-
Der. Their entertainment will be called
the FESTIVAL of Times and Seasons"
and if old Father Time himself, who is
expected, should fail to come on account
of age and infrmIties, he has promised
70 send his twelve children who will
faithfully represent his Interests in the
years doings, assisted each by four of
the next generation, making sixty-two
in all. The society expects this festival
to occupy two evenings in Armory hall.
Congressman Ellis will arrive in The
Dalles tomorrow morning from Heppner
and spend the day in this city. This
will be the last opportunity Mr.. Ellis
will have of meeting his constituents, as
| he leaves almost Immediately for Wash
ington to begin his congressional labors.
There are several questions of vital i'm
portance to the peopl eof Eastern Oregon
concerning which it would be well to
consult informally with Mr.. Ellis. The
necessity of allowing sheepmen to pas
ture their flocks in the accustomed places
is one of them and the matter of river
improvements another. If a meeting oi
business men and citizens could be
called and Mr.. Ellis invited to address
them on these important questions, il
would be both benefit to our people
and deserved compliment to our con
gressman.

Phelps this morning and were found to
be guilty of overestimating their capacity
for liquor. One of them paid So fine
and the other being fined twice that
amount and lacking the wherewith went
to Jail.
The receipts of wheat at the ware
houses were much larger today than
yesterday. The Klickitat teams were in
the majority. At o'clock this morn
ing ten wagons were in line on the ferry
hill across the river waiting to reach
this side.
Ninety hogs from Klickitat county
were brought TO the stockyards today
for shipment to Port Townsend. They
were purchased by Chas. Butler. A
band of cattle also came in to be taker
to the sound. 1t is probable they will
be driven overland.

ALIEN LANDLORDISlT.

Attention Is again directed to aliein
 landDorddsrn in thNs country. The ab-
 sorptton of large bodies of Hand in this country by foreign syndicates and i'm
 dividuals has already become an evil
 of which some of the States very justly
 complain lit is estimated that 20, ,000, 900
 acres of AneTican land are owned fn
 England and Scotland alone, and be- sides this there is a Holland syndicate owning 5000, ,000 and a German associa-
 tion owning 2OO00OO, making 27, ,OOO,0 900 acres of land, the proceeds of which, whatever they may be, go to foreign countries Most of these large holdings are located at the west, and many of them embrace the choicest grazing and agrtcu1tural lands i'm the country.
 In TllinoIhs am effort has been made to check thds tendency by denying to non- ratIdent alEens the right to inherit real estate, and the power of the State to make such restrictions has been eeitaib- lished by tine Supreme court of Illi- nods4 In this case a landowner left by will certain real esrate to an alien residing in Ireland. The will was com tested by his heirs, citizens of the Limited States, under the aGllen land act, and tte contest was sustained.

JUDGE cAB1E,s APPOINTMENTS.

The appointments made yesterday by Judge Cable of the City court give gen. eral satisfaction. The appointees are
 all Republicans. MT. Charles B. Mat
 thewman, who will be City Attorney
 after June 4, has had ample experience
 in the duties of the office, having served
 for three years as Assistant City Attor-
 ney. He is alert, sagacious and re- sourceful, and can be depended on to do
 his full duty. He has made a conspicu- ously clean and honorable record as as-
 sstant, and his experience, faithful ness, integrity and efficiency will make
 him equally useful dn his new place. MT. Warren H. Bristol, who will take the place vacated by MT. Matthewman, is a man of approved character, sound judgment and good knowledge of the law. He Is both capable and reliable, and will take pride in doing his duty well. MT. James D. Dewell, Jr, the new assistant clerk, Is one of the most prom ising of the young lawyers of this re- zion. He is active in public affairs, alnd enjoys the respect and the conh- dence of the community. He will be a valuable addition to the working force of the court.
 It is but just that word should be said concerning the retiring officials who have been displaced by a turn of the political wheel. City Attorney Fox has been uniformly faithful, skillful and discreet i'm the performance of his duty. His record as City Attorney is fawless and may we'll be a. matter of just pride to him and his many person. al and political friends. Mir. York, the as- sistant clerk. has been an upright, ac- curate, reliable and courteous official. The relations of MT. Fox and MT. York with their associates in the court have been of the most pleasant character.

What Ono Woman Remembered of the
 World Famous Battle.
 "In my early days knew a, lady who happened 10 be in Brussels that mem orable June," says Mrs. Newton Cross land She was then newly married and only twenty-three years of age. So little certain of victory did the English on the spot feel, that her husband in sisted upon her dressing as a Norman dy peasant, thinking such a costume would be a protection.
 "Vividly have I heard her describe the partings she witnessed at the door of the hotel where she was staying, and the despair of wives who were left behind-wives soon to be widows.
 Very graphically, too, did she des- erihe the next days events when wo- men-many of whom, too agitated to change their attire, were still elegantly dressed-made their way somehow on the field of battle, returning in the army wagons, supporting the heads of the wounded on their knees, bathing their brows and binding up their wounds, while steady rain poured down on the faces begrimed by powder, which yet allowed their pallor to be seen.
 q once met at a dinner party the widow of an officer--I forget the name who fought at Waterloo, and the lady narrated her experience of the after battle scene For some reason she had to cross the field of Waterloo, which was still strewn with the dead, and for this purpose she was blindfolded and put on horseback, the steed being led by trooper
 "She held a handkerchief to her nose -steeped, think she said, with vine- gar-and not until she had reached m aoclivity nearly mile from the scene of carnage was the bandage removed from her eyes. Then she looked back. The field of Waterloo appeared like a field of tombstones, for the bodies were all stripped of clothing, and shone white in the sunshine like stone. The camp following ghouls had done their work ffectually."--New York Commercial Advertiser

 The ministers of Massachusetts, un- der the lead of the Rev. Dr. Edward Everett Hale, are about to make an interesting effort to better the religious condition of the State. The first thing done will be to secure somewhat accu- rate information concerning the "physi- cal health, school education, and the chances. good or bad, for moral or vir- tuous life" in every family within the reach of the churches, all denomina- tions Included. Particularly this move ment Is directed towards the unchurch- ed, the people who attend no religious services, and are in no way brought in direct connection with religious infiu- ences. The need of intelligent study of this problem is realized, and it is said that the conditions are most serious in the remote country villages. "But a small percentage of the people of our agricultural towns" says a prominent Massachusetts clergyman, now have any connection with religious institu- tions. They seldom or never attend "a religious meeting, unless it be funeral. They are under no moral or religious instruction. They live outside of all visible influences of faith and worship. Tn many of our towns not ten per cent. of the nominal Protestant people are ever seen in the church at the Sunday worship. Some statistics taken in New Hampshire and Vermont show that peo- pie living mile from the westinghouse seldom visit 1t, and of those two miles or more away not one in a hundred" The cities, too, are said to have many families that are not directly under the influence of the churches, and the cen sus plan is intended to collect reliable information of these, in order that some way of reaching them with non-sectari- an religious instruction may be devised. In outline the plan suggested is that the ministers of town should meet early in the year, and with a map of the town on which every house Is mentioned should divide among themselves the re- sponsibility for such house -to-house vis- iting as Is proposed. Each minister would naturally first take those persons who are called his parishioners; then the families not connected in any way with any religious society could be di- vided among the ministers. After the census has been made it is proposed to call a meeting of the clergymen who have been engaged in the work, and from the individual reports to make out g. general statement from which the further work of direct religious instruc- tion may be intelligently planned. This attempt to arrest the decay of going to meeting in Massachusetts will be watched with deep interest. If it works well 1t will be initiated in other States. It is certainly we'll planned.
