IMMACULATE CONCEPTION CHURCH.
so1e ~ Psvs in the New FdiAcs

The Church Of the Immaculate Conception, To-
Gated ut the corner Of Eighth and streets north
west, Rev. Father Mccarthy, pastor, having been
completed, will be dedicated next Sunday, Arch
bishop Bayley officiating on the occasion.
The edihce is q handsome structure, and reflects
credit alike on the reverend father Of the parish
and his flock, who have worked faithfully to Sc
cure the Funds necessary for its erection. The
interior, Of gothic design, is plain and neat and
prove acceptable to the congregation. The peWs
are made Of ash and walnut, sufficiently large to
be easy, and will seat, without croWdinR, six per-
sons They are one hundred and seventy seven
in number, thus making comfortable seating
capacity in the body OF the church for one thou
sand and sxty-tWo worshlpers. In the gallery
probably two hundred more can be acosmmo-
dated.
Last night was fixed upon for the sale OF the
pews, Wm. L. Wall 90. having volunteered to
perform that service gratuitousiy for the church,
and at o'clock Messrs. Hahn and Stanley, rep
senting the rm, were present to perform the work.
The sales were made with the following under
standing, which was announced previous to any
being made:
The right hereby conveyed is vested in the pur-
chaser and his descendants only, and 1t is under
stood and mutually agreed that this right cannot
be transferred to any person whomsOeVer. And
It is also understood and agreed that the par
chaser cannot sell, sublet or rent the pew Of
which he has the right OF occupancy, but when
ever he or his descendants cease TO occupy the
same, then the right now conveyed reverts TO the
church.
The pews in the centre aisle, from the chancel,
running back nYe rows eacn size, nave Deen
placed at yearly rental OF 900; the next I'VE, $50;
The next I'VE, 80, and 70 on down to $50 pew.
On the side aisles they range from $50 to t12.
There was quite large attendance OF the
church people, but they failed to display that
spirit OF rivalry in securing choice seats as was
anticipated. On the contrary, there,was a reluct-
ahce to bid and many neglected to secure pews
that probably VIII regret in tae future having
lost so favorable an opportunity, while those
buying will realize the benefit Of the Investment.
The first choice was one of the five PeWs each
side OF the centre aisle, commencing at the
chancel, and having an annual rental Of $50. The
bidding appeared tame, and the choice was
knocked down to Mrs. Smith for Sl25, who Sc
lected No. 2. This manner of dIsposlng OF the
seats met with poor encouragement from those
present, and the auctiOneer changed and COM
mepced selling the peWs in numerical order, with
the following result:

from st. Louis, with his mother, on the mail

In the New York Sun, Of the 9th inst, appears
the following:
BOSS SHEPHERDS POWER.
RerOking the Commission Of a Justice iuho Re-
fused TO do His Bidding
WASHINGTON, Feb. San instance nlustrat-
possessed by Boss Shepherd has Just come to
light Moses A. FebTey, a provision dealer ia
this city, had supplied Frank Mason, the agent
Of S. p. DTumheller, contractor, with supplies Of
various kinds, with which the Workmen of the
latter were in part paid. Febrey wanted his
money, but DrumhelIer would not pay, and suit
was Instituted against him before Mr. T. J.
Lazenby, justice OF the peace. 1t was discovered,
however, that Drumheller was without property
but that Boss Shepherd owed him money sum
cient to pay the amount Of Febrey's claim. The
money Of Drumheller in Shepherds hands was
accordingly attached. This made the Boss in
digEaDt, and he declared that Mr.. Lazenby
should suffer therefor. HIS Commission as iuf-
tice OF the peace and as notary public would be
revoked unless the proceedings were stopped.
This did not tntimiSate the squire, and true to
his promise the Boss had his commissions re-
Voked last Monday. If Grant succeeds in his
policy Of suppressing Legislatures hostile to his
friends and relatives, and Boss shepherd in sup
pressing courts that are uncomfortable any
other way, this will soon be a country rather I'M
pleasant for people unfriendy to thieves to vein.
THE FACTS
are, the dismissal was made by the Commission
ers upon the recommendation Of Assistant Dis
trict Attorney Birney, as follows:
