pews are of late style of architecture,
as is also the pulpit and other fur
nish1ng. The basement is roomy, and
is fitted up for Sunday school purposes.
The building complete has cost the
congregation something over $4,000,
and for the cost is indeed an elegant
building, one of which the Lutherans
may Justly be proud. Work was begun
on the building last fall by the contrac-
tors, Messrs. French and Sylvester,
and was planned by A. Anderson,
architect and builder of The Dalles.
The church that has just been deci-
Gated will ever stand as a monument
to the memory of Rev. L. Gray, pastor
of the Lutheran congregation, through
whose untiring efforts its construction
was made possible. When he took
charge of the pastorate here, the con-
gregation had no place of worship,
they having church wherever they
could secure room-frst at enc place
then at another. But Mr.. Gray set
about to build church edifice, and by
laboring late and early, soliciting
funds wherever they were to be had,
secured enough money with which to
buy lot and justify the commence
ment of the building. After this was
accomplished, Mr.. Gray Continued his
labors untiringly, and now the church
is complete with comparatively light
debt resting against it.

that this was the busiest place in the
city. And in fact it was busy scene
the power press was running on the
weekly, two jObbers working at the
rate of about 1900 Impressions an hour,
while two people were busy folding
papers, two making up mail and two
compositors setting type. This, how
ever, was no uncommon sight in the
Times -Mountaineer Office. For the
past six weeks it has been very busy
place. Eight people have been stead
lily employed in the mechanical de.
partmeht, besides tie editor, local re-
porter and two carrier boys, making a
force of twelve people connected with
the Office, the largest force eyer en-
ployed in one printing establishment

Miss Janet Waldorf and her excel
lent company presented "Ingomar" at
the Vogt opera house Monday evening
The audience was not large, but the
play was simply superb, and those who
failed to see Miss Waldorf as "Par-
thenia," the sweet and self sacrificing
Greek maiden, missed a treat which
GENES to The Dalles but once in years.
1t cannot but seem that the play was
written for Miss Woldorf, so perfectly
does she fill the part. Al the first
words spoken by her, her audience is
captivated and follows her easy and
graceful movements through all the
different emotional scenes, and there
are many, with absorbing interest and
bursts of applause. 1t is her natural
ness when passing through all the
different phases of emotion with little
effort that wins and holds her audience
Miss Waldorf is certainly one of the
leading artists in her profession and
having achieved success at so early an
age, is destined to become an idol of
the American stage. She is we'll sup
ported by VIM. McVey in the leading
masculine role. AS "Ingomar," the
rough barbarian, hating all women,
but one, he achieved decided
triumph. Mr.. McVey has splendid
voice and pleasing stage appearance.

for themselves greater laurels:

Such deep feelings of gratitude can
only be felt by parents, and words can
not express them, we can only say that
we thank God that cur children lived
among such people, and ask God to
bless such institutions, that they may
live to fulfill their missions of love, of
burying the dead, caring for the
orphan and drying the tears of widows.
All of this we feel has been done, as
far as can be done by human beings
through these organizations, for our
you have our prayers that you NAV
ever thrive and press on in your noble
work; that such institutions shall be
lions may call them blessed, and at
last when the great summons shall
come the Great Grand Master of all
will say, "Well done, thou good and
faithful, come unto the joys prepared
for all who serve their God here on
this earth." is the prayer of the aged
father and mother.

Would Fire and HUN, But WouId
Never stand Their Ground

/ find in the Croker Papers" a pas
sage which may be considered of sufi-
cient interest at the present time TO be
reproduced. For more than 40 years
the Great Duke had been on intimate
terms of friendship with Mr. Croker,
and made call upon him ten days be-
fore his death. Croker made memo
randum of his conversation, part of
which turned upon the value of the
Spanish troops which he had for allieA
in the peninsula campaigns. Mr..
Croker, it will be remembered, was sec
rotary of the admiralty, and was in
Paris with the allies of the battle of
Waterloo. Here is an extract from
his memorandum of the interview of
September IA, 1852:
Ireminded him that one day in Paris,
when the emperor of Russia and king
of Prussia dined with him, something
was suggested that might have been
better done at Waterloo, and he said:
'eYes, I could have done it if l had 10000
of my old Spanish infantry" Castle
reagh was by, sitting near me, aud said:
What can he mean? He never said a
WORD 10 US OF IncSe GpAuIdIu uuiihS
the whole peninsular war but that they
were worse than nothing"
Duke-Oh, yes, | remember had
in my youth read of the old Spanish in
fantry as the finest soldiers in the world.
till they were cut to pieces and de-
siroyed in one, think. of the great
Condos battles; and this name "old
| Spanish infantry" had taken hold of
me, and 1 used to cali my old English
regiments who were serving with me
in the peninsula the old Spanish ia-
fantry. This gave rise to Castlereagh's
mistake, which / remember made us
laugh.
T. Croker-Did you ever see Spanish
troops really stand to their work and
