THANKSGIVING SERVICES.

A Thoughtful Address by Rev. J. -.
Beeman in the Congregational Church
---COIIectIon for the Associated Char
tiles.
Pursuant to the Thanksgiving procla-
nations of President Mckinley and Gov
ernor Smith religious services were held
in Brattleboro yesterday forenoon. The
services opened with sunrise meeting in
the Methodist church in which the young
peoples societies of the different churches
united.
At II o'clock union services we're held
in the Congregational church. This SER
vice was not largely attended, probably
owing TO the storm. The choir opened
the service by singing go BE Joyful by
Dudley Buck, after which Rev. K. @. S.
Osgood of the Unitarian church led the
congregation in reading the 65th Psalm.
This was followed by prayer by Rev. H.
d. Maxwell of the Universalist church.
The choir and congregation then joined in
singing America" The sermon was
preached by Rev. j. D. Beeman of the
Methodist church, who took for his sub
ject the Tooth Psalm.
The sermon was one of great interest.
ME- Beeman began by giving a concise
sional day which has become an annual
day, the New England day which has be-
come a national day-by which 1t was
shown that the nation is coming more and
more to recognize the supreme ruler of the
universe. Whatever success this nation
has attained unto is due to its recogni-
ton Of God. Such recognition is the first
principle which is necessary for success.
The success of Washington and Lincoln.
who were at the head of this nation at the
periods of its greatest responsibility, was
due to the divine providence which was
back of them.
The speaker divided the time since the
signing Of the Declaration Of Independence
into two periods and compared the fruit
fitness of the one with the fruitfulness Of
the other. For this growth and prosperity
we should take great pride and be thank
ful for the solidity Of the foundation Of
our country.
Mr.. Beeman referred to the abundant
harvest Of the past year--a harvest which
has never been equalcd in this country
and said For the plentiful harvest, for
our financial prosperity let us be thankful
That God has SO kindly dealt with us calls
for expressions Of devout thankfulness.
Mr.. Beeman took occasion TO pay high
tribute to those who fought for tue preser-
walton of this nation. With reference TO
the late war between the United States
and Spain he said: "Only nation which
has purged itself Of sin can say to another
nation: Remove your heel of oppression
and your hand Of tyranny from a down
trodden people and let them enjoy their
God given rights. The abundant mercy
of God has been shown. Well may we ex-
claim with the psalmist: Thou crownest
the year with thy goodness
The speaker said that in everything we
should give thanks "for that is the will of
God and Christ Jesus concerning you"
Know ye that the Lord he is God. II is
he that has made us and not we ourselves.
We are his people and the sheep Of his
pasture
AT the close Of the sermon a collection
was taken for the Assoc ated Charities of
Brattleboro The service closed with the
singing of the doXology, praise God from
whom all blessings flow"

Bishop Turner of Georgia clings more
firmly than ever to his conviction that the
negro race has no future in America. His
African emigration scheme still haunts his
mind. "The best thing the negro can do"
he says, sis to call great national con
vention and ask the United States Congress
for $lOO, 100000 to meet the expense of
starting line of steamers between this
country and Africa, thus pioneering a do
main for our settlement" Such influence
as Bishop Turner has among his fellow
black men must be very discouraging to
the race. He should brace up and show
more optimism. His people need it; thew
must have it.-[Springheld Republican.

The Northwest.

Complimentary Notices from the Press of
The Northwest.
Below is given a few of the COM
menrs made by the press OF the
country on the souvenir edition OF the
Times s-MountaiHeer, which are duly
appreciated by the publisher:
East Oregonian: The Dalles Times
Mountaineer has issued 60-page il
lustrated edition in book form under
handsome cover. 1t is flle1 with de-
scriptive matter and illustrations per-
tanning to the resources of The Dalles
and Wasco and Sherman counties.
The illustrations are excellent, the
press work the very best and the con-
tents especially interesting to those
identified with the industries and en-
terprises of The Dalles, and Wasco and
Sherman counties. The edition is ex-
ceedingly creditable to Mr.. J. A.
Douthit. the editor and proprietor of
the Times -Mountaineer, and his work
should be appreciated to its full worth
by the people whom it will greatly
benefit of that large section of Eastern
Oregon of which The Dalles is the
trading point and metropolis.
Baker City Democrat: The Demo-
crat is in receipt of the special or mid
winter publication of The Times.
Mountaineer, of The Dalles, replete
with historical facts on the resources
CT Wasco and Sherman counties, ac.
companied by half-tone illustrations of
industries, public buildings, points of
interest and prominent citizens. The
issue is work of art and will prove of
reat aid in attracting capital and
enterprising citizens to that Sec
tion of Eastern Oregon. Publisher
Douthit deserves praise for the enter
prise he has shown and the people of
Wasco and Sherman counties cannot
be too grateful to him for the good
work he is doing in attracting atten-
tion to the advantages offered by these
counties as place of residence.
Portland Oregonian: The Dalles-
Times-Mountaineer's New Years
souvenir of the "Resources of Wasco
and Sherman counties is of unusual
merit, both for its excellent typog-
rapty and for the matter it contains.
Between the artlstically designed
covers are 46 pages we'll filled with
sensible articles, handsome half tone
pictures of individuals, of places of in
terest, and of scenes typical of the two
counties.
Portland Morning Tribune: The
souvenir edition of The Dalles.Times-
Mountaineer, just issued, is one of the
neatest, best illustrated. and most in
teresting publications of its kind ever
issued in the state, and its publisher
deserves the very liberal support of
the prosperous people of Wasco and
Sherman counties.

M. e. Meetings.

The meetings at the Methodist
Church are growing steadily in inter.
est. A very quiet, attentive audience
listened last night to the sermon by
the pastor. Rev. Wood took as his
text, "The word is nigh thee, even in
thy mouth and in thy heart; that is,
che word of faith which we preach. :"
The preacher said, "This is progress
sive age, many are saying, Show u
some new thing.' Wha. of this Christ?
Men would that ono should ascend
into heaven to bring Christ down. or
descend into the deep to bring Christ
up By their theories men blind
themselves that God has put in every
heart sufficient knowledge to lead the
way to himself. If they would follow
the light that is theirs by birthright.
would reveal to them the Christ, III,
Anointed The honest, penitent hear,
:ries out for some promise and Away
inds one sufficient for his help. Th.
word of faith preached by Paul, is this.
If thou shalt confess with thy mouth
0he.Lord Jesus, and shall believe il
Ghy heart that God hath raised him
from the dead, thou shalt be saved
God is no respector of persons. For
the same Lord over all is rich unite all
that call upon his name.'"
Nearly all present responded to the
:all to come around the altar that the,
night receive the blessing from tn.

ENGLISH RAILROAD COACHES.
First-Class Cars Upholstered Better Than
Those In This CnuntrY.

First-Class Cars Upholstered Better Than
Those In This Country.
The standard English passenger car.
riage is considerably shorter than our
car, has three axles, no end platforms
and is entered by side doors, says
Scribner. The first-class ear contains
four compartments, each with six
places, three with backs to the engine
and three facing. The seats are sep
arated by broad and comfortable arm
rests, and there are arm rests on the
sides of the carriage also. These rests
are low enough, broad enough and soft
enough to be comfortable. The COM
partment is about seven feet square in
side, giving ample room for the six
seats, which are deep, wide, padded to
the height of the head and upholstered
better than anything that know of in
America There are ample racks for
hand luggage, a rug on the floor and
one lamp in the roof. The second and
third-class carriages have five compart-
ments, making the seats less osep fore
and aft and giving less room for the
knees than in the first-class. The Sec
ond-class compartments seat eight per-
sons, and the bench across the car is di-
viced by but one arm rest, so that if
the places are all full you and your
neighbor are separated only by an
imaginary line. The thirtt-class COM
partments seat only ten persons and
the benches are not divided at all, the
five persons on a side being in pretty
close contact. These are not nearly as
well upholstered as the first-elass, but
are good enough in that respect. These
are the standards, but there are many
exceptions. For short-distancc traffic,
for example, it is quite common to seat
eight in first-class compartment and
to seat ten in second-class compart-
nent.

The Charity Ball Given by the Elks the
Best Ever Given In the City

The Charity Ball Given by the Elks the
Best Ever Given In the City.
Elks may have faults, but it will
never be claimed agrinst them in The
Dalies that they are not good enter
tainers or that their hands are not
open to those in distress. The charity
ball given by the order last Friday fully
demonstrated these two truths. Moth
ing could haYe been done to more fully
entertain the guests than was done by
the Elks. The hall was most beauti-
fully decorated, and presented the ap-
pearance of large tent with sloping
sides pointing from the centerpiece
suspended from the ceiling, and all
was lighted with purple lights that
threw splendid mellow glow over the
hall, and as the dancers fitted here
and there, all appeared as if of one
hue The music furnished by Brig
fields orchestra was the latest airs,
and very many of the numbers were
heartily encored. No dancer appeared
on the floor, but pronounced every
thing perfect, and it was the universal
sentiment of all that as social event
the ball was perfect success. Many
elegant costumes were oliced iu the
hall, the ladies having exerted them
selves to look their prettiest on this
occasion, and certainly the dress
makers art had been taxed to its ut
most.
AS to the charitable features of the
ball, it certainly has reached the hear
tiest expectation of the various com
mittees that had it in charge. A large
fund has been created that will be dis
tributed among those in need in and
about The Dalles. It. is hoped that
there is enough to relieve want in
every quarter, and that when the fund
is distributed, there will not be fam
lily or an individual in the city or vi
cinity VINO is not provided for. 1t is
the purpose of the Elks that destitution
shall not be known within reach of the
ASST .tance they are prepared to extend,
and that no one shall suffer for th
want of necessities so long as they ar.
prepared to relieve distress.
