Tomorrow evening at 6 80 O'Clock at
the Methodist church the Epworth
League will hold rally service, to which
all are especially invited. The rally will
be opened by song service, followed by
short address by the pastor, Rev. Wood,

This morning at 10 O'Clock J. Aubin
charged with obtaining money under

seems to think he will come out all right.
He is now in the county Jail, having OBJ

| One week from tomorrow will be
Easter Sunday. The season seems some
what backward this year, which is un-
fortunate for those who loox upon
Easter as time for the display of new
bonnets and summer costumes. How
ever, it's an ill wind that blows nobody
good, and the less fortunate who cannot
afford the Easter riggin' will watch
with anxiety tie weather report in hope
it may portend storm on that day.
The Stevenson paper says that the
Regulator passed there Monday with
The Dalles band on board playing
"Annie Rooney" That is the "most un-
kindest cut of all.' We are much afraid
that paper is following in the steps of
the Oregonian, which always attacks a
person after he is unable to defend him
self. Were our band still in fighting
trim it might resent the insult, for in its
palmy days it was never known to do
anything quite SO rash as play "Annie
Rooney" and never played itself out on
neither that nor "After the Ball"
Mrs. A. Keller, accompanied by her
little son and daughter, Josie, returned
home on last nights train. Mrs. Keller
has spent the past five months visiting
in different portions of California. She
is particularly taken with San Jose,
which she says is veritable garden OF
blossoms at present. Max Blank, who
years ago, has one of the most beautiful
places imaginable, situated about three
miles from San Jose. Mrs. Keller also
visited the family of II. Genres at Los
Vatos. The people of California are
in the best of spirits over the showers
they are now having.
Coy. T. 7. Geer is in receipt OF letter
ITOm y. T.. OeNoe OF Alna, OHlo, VINO
writing for the Epworth League of the
Grace church of that city. asks Oregon
executive to contribute handkerchief
apron or some other article, to be solo
at fair which the league will conduc
in the spring, for the purpose of paying
the church debt of So, 300, portion o
which the league is to raise. Gov. Gee
said that he would gladly assist tn
young people of Lima, Ohio. and if an,
others desire to do likewise, he would b
pleased to hear from them. The goy
ernor has the right kind of spirit il
tue matter, but we imagine it will
something like establishing the pre-
cedent of kissing babies-the applica
tions will come in thick and fast.
