We hope the churches and charita-

no one suffers on that day for the
necessares of life, and if any are sick
and in distress, their sufterings should
be alleviated.

Church Notes.

Rev. Lindsey commenced series of
meetings in the Baptist church, on
Tuesday evening of last week. Large
crowds have been attending each
night, and the interest seems to be
growing with each meeting.
There were union services in the
Methodist church Sunday evening
The church was crowded to its utmost
capacity, Rev. Lindsey preached an
able and eloquent sermon, and held
the close attention of the vast audience
for an hour, These meetings will
surely be productive of much good.
Rev. Mckinley preached interesting
sermons in the Presbyterian church
Sunday morning and evening. He
will also preach next Sunday morning
and evening, to which services all are
invited to attend.
Rev. |. f. Tobey, superintendent OF
the Oregon Children's Home society,
of Portland, preached in the Methodist
church Sunday morning. He also rec
commended the Home society to the
congregation. This is worthy cause
and the people should render it all aid
possible.

Fatal Accident at Foster.

Word came to this city Wednesday
morning that fatal accident occurred
at Foster, about l2 o'clock Tuesday, in
which Mr.. AL Wodtli lost his life
1t seems that Mr.. Wodtli, who has
been working in his fathers mill at
Foster, was out in the timber doing
some work, when someone came to the
mill to get some grist ground. Nj .
Wodtli started to the house after the
key to the mill, when he discovered
that the house was on fire.
The books belonging to the mill
were up stairs, and Mr. Wodtli, not
needing the impending danger, rushed
up stairs after the books, but he meyer
returned-the flames did their deadly
work, aud the dead body of the un-
fortunate man was not recovered until
after tue flames had subsided.
1t was certainly very sad accident,
and the bereaved relatives and friends
of the deceased have the sympathy of
the entire community.
His sister, who lives in Albany, was
telegraphed for and came out Oh the
train Wednesday morning.

Water for the Hospital.

A much needed want has been
filed by the erection by the Hawai-
ian Hardware Co. OF an Aermotor at
the Queens Hospital
This institution has OF course been
in possession OF windmill for one
or two years. The mill, however,
was Of no use, and the trustees
finally were obliged to give it away
as "slops."
There are wheels within wheels in
this country as everyone knows, and
the motto of our virtuous missionary
capitalist is always 1--WE take the dol.
lar, the devil takes the rest"
When that noble specimen of a
"poor" soon of missionary, Mr..
Charles Cooke, was managing
trustee OF the Hospital committee
which was instructed to look after
the water supply, he purchased a
"Gem" windmill for that institution.
1t is not necessary to state that he
was the agent for the Seem" mill,
and that he naturally made few
dollars commission out Of the sale.
The Seem" wouldn't work and
the Hospital has ever since been
in dire straits.
A change in the committee has
taken place and change of mills
has been the result. The Seem"
has been demolished and now lies
like cold, clammy demnition
corpse, while the big fan of the
Aermotor is moving around at a
lively rate on the top of 70 feet
tall turret, and even with the slight
breeze Of to-day is pumping water
in the two huge tanks which re-
spectively hold 10000 and 5000 gal.
Ions of water.
The loss sustained by the Queens
Hospital in accepting, erecting and
building the useless Seem" will
probably never be known. The
effective service oil Hawaiian Hard
ware Aermotor, erected at a com
paratively small cost, will in the long
run perhaps compensate the Hospi
tai for the loss sustained by the
"unselfish" action of those "gems,
the missionary trustees.
