EeS, r. E, Clark, D. D.

Rev. E. r. Clark, D. D, Of Boston, founder of the Christian Endeavor s0- ciety. having just returned from a journey which occupied nearly a year, and which took him aimcst around the world, and having spent much time among the mission stations of all de- nominations in India, Egypt and South Africa, naturally gave some impress siors which this year Of journeying has made upon his mind. The first iln- pression was that of the joy of mission- aries i'll their service, the genuine de- light which they took in their tasks
 Their work was no long, hard grind; {; they were not driven to it by the spurs of duty, but led on by the golden wand of love. The dirty little Hindoo child who makes his way, naked and un- llenpt to the mission school, is fairer in the eyes of those loving missionaries than the curled darlings of America arrayed in all their silks and satins and flounces of lace. They often speak of the uncouth natives just out of heathenism, or perhaps still in heathen- ism, With tnelr faces ScdICely luf1lGu to the light, as ''our noble Zulus,' our splendid Kaflirs,' "our generous heart ed Fingoes." and it was very evident that their hearts were in the work to which they had so lOyally given their lives.
 Another impression pr. Clark had re- ceived was the way in which our mis- sionaries readily adapted themselves to their fields and to the people among whom their lot was cast. The genuine Yankee ingenuity and old fashioned Connecticut keenness were shown in the adaptation of means to end, and of all means to the great end of uplifting the people and bringing them into vital relations with the Lord Jesus Christ. He told about q missionary from Con- necticut in western India who had eS- tablished an industrial school and start ed a plantation of alGes and constructed a factory for the making of hemp, in order. that the native converts who by the espousai of Christianity were thrown out of their old employment and their old homes. might have some self-re- specting means of Livelihood.

Oregonian, Aug. %: After an
agreement is reached regarding the
marshal and district attorney the
question of who shall be recommended
for collectors Of customs, appraisers
of customs, collector of internal rev.
enue, postmasters at Pendleton, Port
land, The Dalles and other cities will
be taken up, but just how near joint
agreement will be reached is Involved
in doubt. The sound money Demo-
Gratis of Oregon, 5000 or more in
strength, who supported Mckinley
and saved the electoral vote of Or
egon being given for Bryan, have but
one request to make of the admins
traitor. This has been formally done
by asking that T. J. Black, the pres
ent collector of customs, who was a
stanch supporter of Mckinley during
the presidential campaign ami one
welding great influence among the
Democrats, who forsook party at the
call of principle, be retained, at least
for time, in his Office.
On the other hand, the two prin-
cipal Republican competitors for the
position. L. T. Geer and S. M. Yor,an
were both presidential electors, and
to make choice between the two
may have the effect of embarrassing
the delegation. 1t is fully recognized
by Republicans that Mr.. Geer is en-
titled to some merited recognition
in return for his unflinching fealty
to party and his effectiYe work as a
campaigner.
