which dcsrades by its very contact, and
yet, who very likely, owe their present
position to son.e not remote ancestor,
who, recognizing his call 10 work, lived
more honestly in the world than they

for people TO be ashamed of the work
from which they draw hcir income,
and, which glori6ed Their ancestors

A FRAME BUILDING TWENTY-FIVE

A FRAME BUILDING TWENTY-FIVE
MILES IN LENaTH.-Persous who pass
hastily over the Union Pacific railroad
hardly givea thought to the Immense
amount of work which has been perform
ed by the company. From the Sacra-
meuto to the present terminus o: the
road, at Elko, the trains are once m"re
running regularly. The immense amount
of money and labor expended in cutting
through mountains, opening tunnels
grading the road, aud laying the track
can with difficulty be realized ty those
not familiar with the business. Not the
least of the problems to be solved was
that of protecting the tick from the
heavy falls OF snow which were antlc,-
bated duriug the winter mouths. TO
onyiate this difficulty asfar as possible,
the cotnpany determined to erect ST.
r;es of Sheds, or rather one building,
which should protect the road over the
snow line. accordingly, they have
erected building which is doubtl' IS
the largest iu the world. 1t is;twenty-
two miles in length, sixteen in width,
and sixteen feet iu height. not including
the pitch of the roof. 1t is put up III
the most substantial manuer, all the
timbers used being of the best quality
to be obtained. The sides are enclosed,
and were it not for the fact that day
light penetrates through the intcrsticcs
between the boards the whole affair
would be verylike a hu.e tunnel. The
building is braced together in most
neculiar mauner,, and is, in addition,
firmly boiled to the rocks whcrever, the
70 d ncars the face Of cliff. Where
an w slides are to be feared, an cxten.
sio of the roof has heen carried to the
cliffs, so that the falling muses. shall
pass over the building and lo"ge on the
other side. In many places where side
tracks are located, the building Iswlder
than the figures given above. More than
10000, 900 feet of lu,nbcr have been
used in its construction: 1t covers an
area of more than 100000 square
feet or nearly forty-four acres. One OF
the best proofs of the stability of the
structure i: in tie fact that, with Il G
exception of a few miles which hal not
been really completed. itthoroushIy an
swered the parposc forwhi h 1t was de-
signed during the recent sev're Storm,
in which it was subjected tothe most
severe tests.

BOSTON, Nov. S.-About two hundred mem
bers of the Evangelical denominations of this city
met in the Meionian Hall to-day with reference to
the reception of Father Hyacinthe in Boston.
Rev. DR.. Kirk, from the committee appointed to
confer with the distinguished Carmelite, made
his report, which was read. 1t stated that the
committee had sent Rev. George Prentiss to New
York to meet Pere Hyacinthe. Mr.. Prentiss
saw the Father, and made to him an address re-
counting his services to civil and religious re-
form, his demand on foreign governments for
proper concessions, his devotion to God and TO
liberty of conscience, closing with an invitation
to visit Boston.
Toythe address of Mr.. Preutiss, Father Hya-
cinthe returned the following:-"I am very SEN
sible of the high honor paid me in the greeting
from the clergy whom you represent. 1 am
touched by your expressions of Christian SYM
pathy and affection. l am Catholic and hope
to remain one. / have not broken with the
Church, but its abuses i recognize true Chris
'tians in all Protestant bodies, for / believe that
the true Church. embracing all who hold Christ
as their head, is far wider than any earthly Or
ganization. My purpose in coming to America
is to escape excitement and rest little. | shall
soon return to Europe, but hope again to visit
this country / shall visit Boston in November,
if possible, and then should be. glad to s2e those
whom you represent, and to explain more fully
my position. The future is dark and uncertain,
but shall obey conscience to the end. Greet
in my name with Christian salutations those in
whose name you greet me- The committee was
continued, and Bishop Eastburn was added to it.

normal flood, it sweeps away their villages and

Strike of n Thousand BraISemeD-Flslx, Jr,,s,
BodY-snnrd of Fifteen Hmndred.

N a. Es
Body-suard of Fifteen Hundred.
From the " Y. Times Of this morling
report became current in Jersey City yesterday
afternoon that the entire body of brakemen en-
poyed the freight trains Of the Eastern Division
Of the Erie Railway struck on Saturday night The
cause of the strike is said to have been In conse
uuenCe OF the discharge of three of the brakemen
Friday, and substituting in their places three men
not belonging to that organization. The brake
men held q meeting in Port Jervis and de-
manded the immediate restoration of the three dis
charged men to their situations. The company de-
cined to accede TO the demand and the consequence
was that on saturday evening the men held another
meeting when strike was resolved upon, to take
effect at AS the trains came into Port Jervis
the brakemen ell gagged in running them were noti-
fled OF the action TAKEN and at left OIL work, in
consequence Of which nearly the entire amount
of freight that was being moved over the road is
now standing uron the tracks at Port JerviS. No
freight trains arrived at or departed from Jersey
City yesterday.
Admiral Fisk declares that he will not submit to
ctation and ulthermore that he will fill the places
of the strikers with set of new men. With this
view he, yesterday afternoon and evening, had
scouts out in Jersey City, Hudson City, Hoboken,
and New York. gathering up an armed body guard
of 1000 to 1900 men to proceed with him to Port Jer-
WIS., His intention is to pay of the strikers and en-
poy these green men to move the freight trains and
in case of interference, to light their way through
Admiral Fisks scouts were authorized to offer
85 day and expenses. In Jersey City over
150 men, mostly 'ttre ladies'" were obtained
in tho lower part of the city. A large
number of recruits were also obtained in New York.
and they were generally pretty rough characters
Shortly after O'Clock some sixty runners came over
in q body from New York, but when they learned
that they would receive only five dollars per day
fused TO go. They wanted twenty-five dollars
apiece, and thought that was reasonable enough to
run the risk of getting their heads broken" Shortly
after 10 O'Clock special train sent out loaded
with men, and others were to follow as fast as the
men could be brought IN. The passenger trains will
run as usual.
