A new game has been originated
by the little girls of this city which
throws all the other sports of it's
kind into the shade. 1t is called
"Playing Statute" and is all the
rage among them. A number of
the lassies get together and, taking
their stand on the sidewalk, pro-
ceed to pose in tragic or comic at
titudes, according to the program
called out to them by the little
stage manager. This important
official occupies position on n
neighboring doorstep. The Del
sarte craze is probably responsible
for this new Juvenile game and the
damsels who have been acquiring
poses at great expenditure of du-
cats and muscle will have to look
to their laurels, as their small ri
walls initiate them to perfection.
Some big girls little sister is, no
doubt, responsible for this charm
ing sidewalk novelty.

The subject of the Bible reading yes
terday afternoon was Assurance" at
which time fair-sized audience greeted
Mr.. Crittenton.
1t was o'clock last evening before
the leaders announced the first hymn,
and short praise and prayer service
was held, at the close of which the solo
by Mr.. Wallace, "My Old Country
Home" was finely rendered, he being
assisted by a refrain, which seemed to
come from the sides of the stage. After
the solo Mr.. Crittenton made the an
nouncements and distributed a large
number of cards of invitation, to be
given out to induce all the children in
the town to attend the children's meet
ing this afternoon at the armory. Also
cards of invitation were distributed co

Mr.. Carpenter took for his text Jere-
miah xii IS, ''If thou hast run with the
footmen and they have wearIed thee,
then how canst thou contend with
the horses2 And if in the land OF peace,
wherin thou trustest, they weary thee,
then how wilt thou do in the swelling of
the Jordan?'' The speaker said life was
full of mile-stones, and every moment
we were nearing the last milestone of
life, and we should be prepared for
that last milestone, the swelling of the
Jordan, and then the end would be glo-
rious. He spoke very touchingly of
never having seen his mother, but be-
Iieved he should know her in the world
to come, when hfe's race is run.
After the address an invitation was
given and cards distributed TO those
wishing for prayers and who were will
ing now to start on the Christian life.
The beautiful hymn "We Are Passing
Away" was very affecting, and the au-
dience showed how deeply it was moved
by the solemn quiet that came over it.

POOR OLD SALLY AGAIN.
From Cold ana Hunger Her Child ia
Passing Away.


Some time since mention was made in
the CHRONICLE of Sally" an Indian
woman who works hard all day at the
washtub for 25 cents, and who does not
earn money enough to maintain life aud
care for her sick daughter. In conse-
quence that daughter is today dying
dying from cold, hunger and neglect. In
trembling and uncouth language she in
formed a patron last week that she would
not be able to wash the coming week, for
her girl would not live long and she must
be at her bedside waiting for the end.
She begged for pair of stockings to fur
nish warmth to the one being on this
earth she most dearly loves, who, unat-
tended by doctor, her frame emaciated
by disease and insufficient food, and her
body SO scantily clad that she is con-
stantly chilled, is dying.
This week she again appeared with a
new and terrible trouble. While at Seu-
fert's cannery Chinaman accidentally
cut her on the wrist with a huge knife
while chopping salmon. The wound is
a serious one. The two sides of trian-
guar Space aOOuG Two lncneS In length,
are depressed, showing the presence of a
deep wound. She suffers great pain
constantly, but has no "chickamin''
Emoneyl TO purchase either medicine or
medical attendance.
Poor old Saily's troubles will soon be
over. She will shortly stand at the
brink of grave, where her great matern-
al love will be buried with her child the
heavy earth pressing over the loved form
will communicate it's weight to her be-
reaved heart. With crushing sadness,
but savage fortitude, she will return to
her desolate hearthstone, and with
heart sick and body racked with pain,
she viii endure as best she may the
short span of life that yet remains to her
before her spirit takes its flight to that
realm where cold cannot pierce, where
hunger cannot gnaw, and where let us
hope, there will be no lack of comforts
that fond mother may not bestow on
her child. May that love be eternal,
unthwarted and measureless.

The Florence Mission rescue work is
the title of one of the most interesting
subjects handled by the Crittenton evan
gelists. This is work which appealed
to Mr.. Crittenton's efforts and fortune
voting the best labor of his life. 1t is a
labor of redeeming the fallen from the
damning criticism of an uncharitable
world, to rescue their bodies from de-
struction and their souls from spiritual
death. Tomorrow night at armory hall
at 80.
A comprehensive picture of childhood
was presented this afternoon at the
Crittenton meeting at armory hall. A
sea of bright little faces, upturned to
listen to the story of jesus love for
them was one of the most inspiring and
elevating sights that mortal may wish to
see. Very handsome they looked in their
variously- array, each little face
wearing an expression of eaTnestnees
and innocence, and an inspiration must
they have been to the evangelists and
Christian ministers who are trying to
show them the way, the truth and the
life thus early In their career.
Judge A. S. Bennett, Democratic
nominee for congress, speaks at the
court house this evening. Political
speaking is new departure for Judge
Bennett, but if we may believe the As

interesting and logical .on the stump as
torian says that as political speaker
Judge Bennett far exceIs the best efforts
of Col. Weaver and the leading lights of
Populisn. This may be equivocal
praise, and we would much rather the
Astorian had compared him with not
able Republican speakers. but then
Judge Bennett may be safely put down
as a powerful speaker, from his record
before our courts in this and neighboring
counties.
