The military expedition which is soon TO
leave Fort Rice in Dakota. tor the line Of the
Northern Pacific will penetrate the heart of
the Sioux country. The Omaha Herald be-
lietes, and, correctly, too, that it will have
the effect to keep this tribe at home, and
thinks that the recent horse stealing party Of
that tribe which put in an appearance on the
Loupe and portions Of the Nebraska frontier
are not now IN the vicinity OF the settle
ments. This expedition will consist of ten
companies ofthe Seventh Cavalry, four COM
panies Of the Eighth infantry, six companies
of the Ninth infantry, four companies of the

Twenty infantry, ard seventy-fiYe

Second Dragons. In 1851 .heswas captain !;
in 1863 major of the Fifth cavalry, and III
1856 was made colunel. In the volunteer

In rank is General L. r. Bradley, lieutenant

The Scott Monument.


The handsome blocks of granite lately
quarried and now being dressed at the
works of the Cape Ann Granite Company,
at Bay View, for the Scott monument at
Washington have been examined by hun
dreds OF visitors with great interest since
they were first started from the solid found
ations at the quarries. Two at least of
these stones there are FIVE IN ALL are Of
marvellous size. The handling Of such
stones is difficult and expensive operation
and tc start them from the pits where they
were quarried, required the strongest de-
sc1iption of wire tacklipg procured espe-
cially for the purpose, while their trans
portatlOn from the quarries to the wharf
required the construction of a strongly
braced car, the ordinary plat
form cars OF the company were en-
tirely inadequate TO support their
great weight. Nor could they be loaded
upon the car by any ordinary process of
derrick with tackle and fall. but it was
desired height, building a foundation Of
heavy backing as the work progressed.
and when sufficient elevation has been
reached they were slowly and carefully
moved on rollers across the platform to the
transportation Car. All these steps were
completed and the stones placed in position
for dressing upon the wharf, where they
are now far advanced toward completion.
The next difficult step is to load them upon
vessels ready for shipment, and the success
attending the work thus far is a guarantee
that the remaining difficulties will be sue
cessfully overcome. The monument, which
is to be erected on a public triangle at the
intersection of several streets in Washing
ton, will consist of five large granite blocks
platform, sub-base. base, die and caps-all
under contract and well advanced by the
Cape Ann Granite Company, to be sur

Rev. Dr. Curry recently applied tie Germ

which is thus described: They hang around

and mission work. EN- braclng every Oppor-
tunity to talk and 70 give their testimony.
to the annoyance Of the church generally:
and, like Jack in the box, poppin. out as

were referred TO as Sunday school kill
ers"-,nen who 90 from school 70 school,
and consume the time and patience Of the
teachers, simply 10 hear themselves talk.
This class OF men are the Jane Of religious
work everywhere. Their faces are as IA
miliar as mendIcants abou: The streets.
Nothing can prove more clearly that God
is in the Fulton street prayer meeting
than tina. it has oa:lived til, class.
They attend every service. and are
known as the ring. They are al
ways on their feet when they can
get chance. They prevent strangers from
taking a part by spriDging to their feet at
the first vacancy. These men utter the
same prayer, say the same talk week out
aud week in, and make tie audience posi-
lively shiyer when they come TO their feet.
They have been counseled and warned
but bray them in a mortar with a pestle"
and they will talk still. A daily prayer
meeting is held every afternoon at the
rooms of the Young Mems Christian Asso-
citation. These professional takers are on
hand. But the energetic young men who
control that institution give them to under
stand that they can not consume the time
nor wear out the patience Of the saints
They settle on new church with peculiar
gusto. The pastors. both through the press
and in private conference, are asking if
there is any deliverance from this annoy
ance. "Who shall deliver U.s." they say,
from this calamity T.
