The service was in charge Of the su-

The pastor. In his address, described
the work OF the publishing society. and
stated that the collection to be taken
would be for the spread OF the gospel
through the missionaries which 1t sends
cut at home and abroad. This organ
ization was the first to adopt gospel
cars" and now has six OF them, each
capable CT seating 100 people for SER
vice. They are comfortably furnished
and each has bene provided with an or

Of these cars once visited Astoria. The
railroads give these cars free trans
portation. and the express companies
also carry the publications Of the So
clety free. so corporations do not ap-
pear to be altogether soulless. The
collection was taken up by two little
girls. the audience responding gener-
ously.
Little Tressie Morris delighted the
audience with her cute ways in the reci-
tation. and especially in the song she
sang. Several other little ones de-
serve special mention, as does Miss
Annie Olsen for the excellent rendition
Of John Jenkins Sermon" The au-
dience was thrilled by the rich, full
tones of Mr.. Sharpe IN his solo, "The

The terms under whieA the West

must furnish such lights at cost not

The council could. and should have
called upon the West shore Mills Com
pany to furnish street lights tonight

ton would have compromised in no
way the position OF the city in its fight
against the extorionate exaetlons OF

Voked.

yard on the East Side yesterday af-
ternoon. The affair was pulled off
promptly on time. at o'clock. which
was quite surprise TO the audience,
who are generally obliged to wait an
hour or two after the hour scheduled
for such an event. The Sue H. Elmore
was built for the Tillamook trade, and
from all appearances is admirably
adlpted for the work in which she will
engage. She was built on lines design
ed by Captain Paul Schrader, one Of
