individual Communion Cups.

OREGON CITY, May Sat the
regular communion service of the First
Congregational church today individ-
ual communion cups were used for
the first time in Oregon City, and 1t is
believed this Is the second church oil
Pacific coast to make use of individual
cups. The set consists of four oval
shaped trays, each holding thirty-six
tiny glasses, and each glass has a capa
city equal toa tablespoon. The trays
are only about foot long, each sets on
four legs, and they are arranged in q
compact tier, so that the whole may
be carried about easilyand with safety.
The glasses are bell-shaped, flaring
moderately at the top. In serving the
communicants, each deacon takes a
tray laden with glasses of wine and
passes to the members, each Of whom
takes glass and waits until all have
been served. The same is done with
the bread. Then the pastor and the
congregation partakc Of the communion
in concert, constituting an orderly and
and dainty devotion. A small socket
on the back of the seat in front of each
commpnicant receives the empty cup.

Held to Answer WITHOUT Bail.

John Basin the Wallowa county
murderer, has been held to answer
without bail, The man seems to have
entertained the idea that as Fleming
was OH his land he had a right to kill
him and that the law would sustain
him In so doing. He has been talking
freely of the affair and his own story
puts him In an unenviable light.
Fleming was on horseback and un-
armed, and Basin did not shoot him
in q moment Of passion, as he went a
half-mile for his shotgun after the al
tercation, and returning, fired upon
his victim in cold blood. Basin does
not seem to realize at all the enormity
ofhis offense. So far be has made no
