SERMONS OF DIR. VANCE.
Increasing Interest in Services at
 Central Church.


 Interest in the services at the Central Presbyterian Church has grown. steadily, day by day. At each morning service the auditorium has been well filled. and at the evening services the auditorium. the lecture room and the parlors are full of people.
 In the morning the service of praise, in song and prayer. has been an especial ard helpful feature. and the five minutes, or pray0r. after the service. with the pastor and these of the cOngregaticn who desire to remain. has been interesting
 Dr. Vance's sermon yesterday morning was from the text found in First Corin thlans x, 13: There hath no temptation taken you but such as Is common to man; but God Is faithful. who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are ahie: but will with the temptati tion also make a way to escape. that ye may be able to bear It.
 Dr. Vance, in Interpreting his text showed that every sinner regards hls own case as the most peculiar case on record i; not that he feels himself worse or more depraved than other sinners. but just as good as any other sinner and n great deal better than the majority of them He feels that the temptations and the obstacles which surround him are pecu- liar to himself. and with others, it would be an easy matter to meet and overcome Every person." he said, feels that his or her case is the worst and life with them is the hardest; that their every act and intention Is misunderstood: but be- cause matters are bad, that Is no req son to give up and do worse, but when op-

BODY OF BABE FOUND.

It Was Picked Up in Street by a
 v'.. ., ..t'' [, Dog.
 An intelligent dog owned by Jerome VincenteHf came :. into the Vfncentelli saloon at 1S- Monroe Street about 10:30 o'clock last night with something in his mouth which was at first thought to be bone, but which on investigation proved to be a collection of bones In the shape of dead boy baby
 The body was a foot and half long and weighed probably. three pounds. It is not petrified nor is It ossifed. Some chemical process had taken place and the body was dry as bone and shrunken up like an tEgypttan mur1r1y The flesh which now appears dark brown is neither of a fllnty hardness or mushy softness
 The features of the face are clear and distinct and the body Is perfectly formed with the exception of the arms which ap- as the legs. The left arm from the elbow down is gone. The head is we'll rounded, but crushed in the top and
 The skin looks like parchment and in no place do any of the bones, of the body show: The chest is sunken in and the breast boues~ are clearly visible The head is covered with a short growth of silkey as down. The lips are rather thick and the nose flat which might in- dicateSthe negro child.
 Mr. Vlncenteli took the body from the OO8 ana put IL m SnOW case. A great many people went to the saloon to look a the little body last night.
 It Is believed that the dog got the body out of a pile of diYt and trash that, work men have dumped on Monroe Street in the work of excavating an old cellar under the promises of John Young The men have been at work clearing the almost filled up cellar for two days and the dog has heen noticed by Mir. Yung shifting around the pile frequently for the past two days. The cellar has been under the building for at least thirty years and has not been used for ten or fifteen years. There Is a bricked over we'll in the center of the place.
 There are all sorts of queer stories con neoted with the cellar. Mir. Yung said that when he was a boy persons told him that there was a dead man buried in the cellar. About a month ago he de- cidSd to have the cellar cleaned out. but hardly expected to find any treasure in the accumulated trash. ...
 Whether the body of the infant has been in the cellar thirty days or thirty years may never be known.

Youngest King in the World.

The youngest king in the world .s Daudi Chua, King of Uganda, who Is now about g. He holds hls court seated on a scqrlet throne. with leopard skin mat under his feet, and bearing In his hand a toy gun. The British exercise a pro- tectorate over the young king and his kingdom, and have established for him a sort of parliament. which he opens regu- larly with much pomp. Little Daudi Chua speaks English and gives state dinners. at which there Is curious mixture of Ar rican and European, foods and customs. though the royal table is supplied with fine linen, cut glass and silver brought out from London. At these banquets the chief duty of the prime minister Is to see to 1t that his royal master does not eat enough to make himself sick.

Women as Rioters.

 An interesting fact in all great and riotous uprisings against law and pr1n- erty Is that women so often figure in them.

Women in orchestras.

Lack of opportunity has kept women out of our metropolitan orchestras' said a nut sical director recently. But now there is no good reason why they shouldn't find employ ment in the very best. They would i'll the positions quite as well as do the men, and cer- tainly they are far more conscientious than the general run of men musicians. They are hard workers, they punctual, they Keep their minds on the work in hand and ought really to receive higher salaries than men uP ,i.N,o tiiI sir,tlar nostions since women are considered an attraction outside Of thelr lhu- sical powers The outcome Of thls Iales' advancement for women will be the form ing of many mixed ochestras.

RAIN
BADLY
NEEDED

The past week has been dry, with
cool nights and warm afternoons. Pas
turage. potatoes and gardens need rain
badly. but corn and hops are standing
the dry weather better than expected.
The grain harvest is drawing to a
close and most of the wheat in the
willamette valley and in Southern Or
egon have been cut and threshed. Fall
wheat and barley yields are generally
above the average. Spring wheat and
oats are below the averge in qudntity,
but above the average in quality.
Hops are doing well and the vines
are free from vermin. Picking will
begin in the early yards within two
weeks. 1t Is hard to judge the size
Of the crop on account of the in.
creased acreage, but individual yards
will not produce as abund-
antly as they did last year.
Corn is doing remarkably well and
the ears promise to be large and well
filed. Without rain soon potatoes will
be poor crop. Apples in some local
ties nave dropped badly, but the crop
s still good Peaches, plums and
are plentiful in the mar.

Warm Session Exnected.-

Portland, Me-, Aug. 23.-The TWEEN
ty-seventh annual meeting of the
National Council, Daughters of Lib.
erty, opened in this city today with
indications pointing to a lively ses-
sion. The all-absorbing topic for dis.
cussion is the proposed amendment
to the laws of the order to enable any
American man to gain admission. This
matter was before the national coun-
ell at its melting last year at Detroit.
but the proposition was rejected by
close vote. At that meeting the
amendment was brought before the
body as piece OF snap legislation.
and its Introduction was a surprise
to many Of the members. 1t is ru.
mored now that one faction in the
national council is favorlng the
amendment and that fits members will
try to force candidates for office to
vote for the change under penalty of |
defeating them.
The proposed amendment is regard.
ed by many of the members as ex.
.remely radical in character and It is
evident that its adoption will be bit.
erly contested. At the present time
man must belong either to the or.
Ter Of United American Mechanics or
o the junior order to be eligible to
membership in the Daughters of Lib
rty. These qualifications have been
emanded ever since the Organization
as been in existence. The Daughters
4 Liberty now have a membership
I about $4,000, of which nearly 49,.
90 are men. OF course the o. U. A.
q. contributes 1000, and the junior
rider over 5000.

WALK

Last night the new cement sidewalk
which is being constructed along the
Hirsch property on Commercial
street, south of Ferry street, suffered
from a dastardly act of vandalism.
The walk is only partially finished
and was left in good order by the con-
tractor, John Nelson This morning,
when he returned to work, several
sections of the green cement had
holes dug in them, and the edges of
the blocks were mashed and de.
stroyed.
From the general appearance the
destructive work apparently con,

work of a large shoe. 1t was a DELHI.
