First Of The Series. e.

the first of the series of five lec-

direction Of the California Lecture
Bureau, was heard at the Opera
House Saturday night.
The speaker was introduced to
the large audience by Geo w. Dem
man, who has charge of the course
to be given in this city. What
time is it, and where are we?" is a
text which gives DIR. Thes. A. Boyer
opportunity for an interesting and
edifying lecture, and he made the
most Of that opportunity.
DR.. Boyer is not an orator, and
his effort Saturday night is in ne
sense an grafton, but he is rare
speaker, and his lecture was brin-
fal Of wit, humor and sound horse
sense. There is not a dull moment
in it. DIR. Boyer rivets attention
with his first word, and keeps his
audience expectant and amused
while he edifies them. His deliv-
cry is graceful and devoid of posing,
the treatment Of his subject orig
inal, and his style forcible and con-
vineing.

A PRACTICAL VIEW.
Some Sensible Remarks Upon Irt1faper-
ance, AID Its Remedy.

I
ance, AID Its Remedy.
The Women's Christian Tenn
pesaaee Union, of Corvallis,
aeld good meeting at the Bap-
tist church last Sunday. The
edifca was well filled with peo-
| pie ard the exercises were inter.
esting. Mrs. Sanders presided
at the organ and the congrega-
ten joined heartily in the songs
selected from the Gospel Hymns.
Rev. dark Noble conducted the
Scriptural reading, after which
Rev. F. L. Moore offered prayer,
| when Rev. R. L. Nelly made an
address upon the subject of tenn
perance. The general outlines
of his remarks were:
The curse of intenperance and
the remedy for it. He began by
saying that if he had ns other
reason than that of his own ex=
perienee with intemperauce, he
would hate it. He had witness
ed, while ia college, the blight
ofits Influence upsn a fellow
student who went from bad to
worse IN his work, and finally 70
his death, his bier being followed
to the station by the student
body with silent tread and an
covered heads sad lesson to
all of the baueful power Of this
evil. He had known a child de-
serted by its inebriate parents;
he had stood in Baltimore at the
grave Of that illustrieus poet,
Edgar Allen Poe, who died a
raving drunkard. These in
Stances, if nc other knowledge
were had, weuld convince him of
the iniquity of intemperance,
The speaker then discussed
methods to relieve the people
from the pest. He said parents
must begin with the home and
fill the nliad Of the child with
noble ambitions, with frnness
to withstand the seductive infu-
ences of evil of every form found
il society especially liquor
drinking. Build up character
in the youth; make him noble,
make him strong to resist tamp-
tation. Remove as much as pos
sible all, kinds of temptation,
but depend more upon making
real men and women of the chill
dfen. Next, the people must
Rave a strong public sentiment
III favor of good and against the
baI. They cannot depend upon
any kiad Of legislation without a
strong psplio sentiment to en-
fetce the laws.
Let the church, let this organ
|izatien, the noble Wemen's
Christian Temperance Union,
foster and build up such a public
desira for law and order that all
these evilswill De abated. They
must not pass law and then
give it over, but they must work
in season and out of season fer
the upbuildiug of a moral senti-
ment III the community. The
speaker predicted that the time
would eventually come when
this hydra-headed menster would
be driven from our land.
