CROWDED LEVEE.

The levee from Poydras to near Canal Is
pretty we'll crowded with freight, so much 50
as to render 1t impossible for the wharf cor
tractors to get at the wharves to make such
repairs as are necessary. They will be
cleared sufficiently to-day, however. TIE
work On the wharves In the Third District
will also be commenced this week, and the
prospect Is that Administrator Bei:nn will
have the entire landing in excellent order for
the fall business, as he Is working energsti-
eally to that end.

RACK HILLS FREIGHT.
An $1,000 Pound Engine On Hts Way
to Lead City.

The Northwestern Stage and Transpor-

and with the exception ofthree or fonr IN
stances the stages have made regular trips
on time The freighting is good, and but
little snow covers the prairie except with
in radius of twenty-five miles about Bis
marck.
The huge Corliss engine which arrived
here last week via the Northern Pacific,
was this week loaded on wagons, and
Thursday morning was on its way to its
destination, This engine is for the Home
stake Mining company at Lead City, and
is the largest one ever brought into the
territories. It weighs 80 900 pounds, and
has two fly wheels, each titty-slx teet IN
circumference. 1t was made in Provi-
dence, r. T., and is to run the company's
1870 stamp mill, madein California. The
size of its cylinder is 26xS2 inches, and
the arm attached to the fy-wheel weighs
$500 pounds Itrequired folty-two mule
teams to transport the huge machine to the
Hills, and when set up in working order,
the engine, no doubt, will be the finest
west of the Mississippi river.
In addition to the above teams a train OF
twenty-five teams started out yesterday
loaded with miscellaneous freight.
There can be no doubt but that this line
is doing a larger winter business than any
other line to the Hills.

A LENTEN PASTORAL.
Observances OF the Episcopal Church
During Lent.

Observances Of the Episcopal Church
During lent.
To all who love the ancient and hal
lowed observances of the Church of Christ,
to all who, by her aid, would fain escape
the snares of sin, and especially to all who
would look to me as their pastor, in COM
munion with the Anglo-American branch
of the One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic
Church, commonly known as the Episco-
pal Church, greeting:
Beloved, once more the solemn time of
Lent is at hand; once more the awakening
call is made to us all to put aside as much
as in us lies, the cares and pleasures Of
this world, and to give ourselves, for a
time, to selfdenial, fasting, meditation and
prayer. Shall we not, for the sake Of Je-
sus, who died and suffered so much for
our sakes, hearken to His voice. as He
speaks to US to-day by His church, and
lift up our hearts from the sprdid affairs
of earth, to the contemplation of heavenly
things?
We beseech you, brethren, by the ner-
cies Of God, to give more than ordinary
heed to your religious duties AS the
church directs the entire Lenten season
should be observed as a period Of selfde-
nial of some sort, fasting especially on
Wednesdays and Fridays Your private
devotions should be more diligently OBJ
served, certain portions Of time being set
apart each day as seasons Of communion
with God.
From now until Easter week, the public
services Of the church will be as follows;
On Sundays at the brick school house.
Morning prayer, Litany and sermon at Il
O'Clock a. NJ.
Evening prayer and sermon at 80
o'clock p. m. Sunday school after morn
ing service.
On other days at the Rectory, where the

was held last evening at which the follow
ing resolution was adopted:
ReSolUed, That a committee to consist
of two members of theIcommou council lbe
appointed by the Mayor, their duty to see
that all ordinances relating to the construc-
ton of sidewalks be enforced, and to act
in conjunction with the city marshal in
ordering notices served upon property
holders who fail to build sidewalks where
needed.
Aldermen Cameron and Wagner were
named as the committee.

for the benefit of the Union but the motion
to reconsider previous action was lost,
the vote to lay on the table being as fol-
lows:

Further opinions and experiences Of the
editors Of the Union on ordinances aud

less the desire of the republican aldermen
to deprive the editors of the Union of the
only subject upon which they are entirely
at home induced them all to vote as above
