THE SALARY OF COUNTY AUDITOR.

THE LAYING OF THE CoRNER-sToNE OF THE
GERMAN NJ. f. CHURCH.-Notwithsta the
chilly and unfavorable state of the weather
yesterday afternoon, very good audience as
sembled to attend the laying the corner stone
of the new German NJ. f. Church on the cor
ner of Sixth and Rosabel Street. The new
Church is being erected on the site of the old
frame, in which the society have worshipped
several years, and which has now become too
small for their purpose.
The address was delivered by Prof B. F.
Crary, President of Hamline University, at Red
Wing. He mentioned the leading traits of
the German character, his patriotism and love
of Fatherland, his industry and frugality, his
religious disposition and his love of home and
family. These were evinced by his love of
building and no less by building churches, of
which the present enterprise, commenced in
a time of financial distress, is an evidence.
The speaker mentioned the rise and pro-
