Some time ago u young man passed
through here from the Wolf Summit
oil fields, who said he believed in uni
versal salvation, regardless Of thought,
word or deed, Its new thought TO
some who heard his argument, but
was considered rotten To the core as
his main poiut was that men were
only machine in the hands OF God.
Therefore he went through the heids
a near way and had 10 got a steep
hill. and rs he went up some of the
boys who heard him and saw him SAID
God was using the propelling power
forcing him up the inclined plane.
First, il is dangerous doctrine eSpeci-
ally Of great work without labor or
an effort on their part. Second, II
the doctrine is true there iSno need
to use any effort to teach II, for all
would be saved eternaliy.
Perhaps, some do not know we have
a detective here. Il. NJ. Sommerville
went away from home to do some
hauling and employed young man to
attend To the farm work, and when
Mr.. Sommcrville came home he was
informed that this young man one
night forgot to lock the meat house
and ham had been taken. The next
day this man wanted to go as he
said to a neighbours house and started
down the road, but Mr. Sommervillc
Swallowed him and when he got around
a point out Of sight OF the house. he
went upto the cattle house and there
wrapped the ham in his coat and start.
ed. Mr.. Sommerville caught him and
made him 60 back with the ham, and
told him he had no more use for him.

"rHE REAL WIDOW BROWN"
Farce-C0medy Full OF Genuine Mirth
and Melody.

Farce-Comedy Full OF Genuine Mirth
and Melody.
"The Real Widow Brown" q clever
farce comedy, play ed to good house at
Cordray's Theatre last evening. The
audience was kept laughing almost con-
tinually throughout the piece by hearty
mirth.
"The Real Widow Brown" has plot,
more so than the usual farce-comedy,
and it is lively enough to suit any one.
The first act gives simple hint of com.
plications to follow, and Is made up al
most entirely OF specialties. In the sec:
ond act the situations are comlcal and
complicated, and in the final act the fun
continues unabated, with more special
ties. The story told is that Deacon
Goodman corresponds with Widow
Brown object, matrimony. The dea'
cons daughters do not want q step
mother, and have their beaux disguise
themselves, one as the widow and the
other as the deacon. The mixed.upness
possible from such condition Of affairs
Is self.evident, and is fully grasped in
building the plot.-Portland Evening
