Chief Engineer Wattles, Of the
Sioux City and Dakota Railroad was
in the city . couple of days last
week looking after the track ct the
below town. II was pro-
posed by our citizens to furnish Mr..
Wicker $50 spiles for the purpose OF
making two wing dams, in the Mis-
souri, one just above the mouth Of
the vermillion, and the other just
above the wasllout. MI. Wicker
was to drive the piles in both break
waters. But the warm weather 80
cut the ice that the piles could not
be furnished and the project is now
in allegiance. Our people 7 ready
and willing to assist the Railroad
Company IN any reasonable way or
amount 10 keep the track where it 10,
and We have no doubt but some
means will be devised by which that
result will be attained Vemsaion

okfd had plenty o. time
Sler cssr Did was handed ii to make
tiat pretended contract 4 matter Of
record, and they have no excuse for
The deception they have played up
On the public. Mark our words:
III il i dodge TO make ! present Of
$500 10 an advcnturer and his fol-
lewers, and the only way they could
hive shown mn honesty Of purpose
would have been in making that
contract 4 matter Of public record.
10 Jay the least the whole pro-
ceeding is dark and contradictory.
They have given themselves away by
the wholesale. The admissions OF
the chairman Of the Board in one
sense as not show the existence Of a
contract: while later he steps up
after the adjournment and contra
diets the official instructions given
the County Clerk and other officers
while the Board was in session. The
friends Of the Board are SO eager to
defend the acts Of that crowd they
assert that d contract WIS written on
the night Of the 7th at or after ten
o'clock. Hence you win discover
something quite foegy for men to
do who are forced by law to make
their acts clear. More anon.

As you have been walking along the streets
of Paris at night you must often have been
struck by Il sound, half sigh, half moan,
issuing, as it were, from the pavement itself
streak of light striking across the pavement
will guide you to the spot from whence it is
sues, and on looking through the narrow
vent-hole you will see men, naked to the
waist, kneading huge mass of dough in
cellars under the shops The large bakers
have three men, but the majority only have
two. The first is the brigadier. 1t is he who
moulds the paste, heats the oven, and super
intends everything. The other one, the help,
is called the geindre, the man who moans,
for each time that he tears a portion from
the mass of paste he ''moans" from the ef-
fort The bakers develop great muscular
strength and their work is very hard. About
3 o'clock in the afternoon the geindre comes
to the bakery and makes little leaven with
the chef, a little paste kept over from the
previous day, then in intervals of few hours
he goes on doubling the quantity of leaven.
Finally, toward or . o'clock in the evening,
the serious work begins. In bakeries where
three men are employed, the men are bound
to bake seven patches; in bakeries with two
men, four patches. All night the helps knead
and moan, and all night the brigadier keeps
heating his oven and attending to the baking.
While Paris is asleep 1000 workmen are pre-
pairing the $50, 600 kilos of bread which are
necessary for its daily consumption. The
bakers are now agitating for an increase of
pay, demanding 7fr. day instead of G.-The
Partisan.

owned by a rich Spaniard of Monterey, and
was commanded by Captain Charley Hubbard.
The schooner bore the name PeOr es Nddd,
and she started out of Santa Barbara harbor,
on a fine April morning, followed by the eyes
of the entire population. In those times the
sight of a sailing vessel was not an everyday

Have you seen our darling straying anywhere
You'd know her by her blue eyes and her haIen hair
And the dainty dmples in her cheeks so fair;
Have you seen our darling straying anywhere?
For we cannot find her; all the house is still,
And the rooms dark that the sunshine used TO hll
We listen for the patterng Of her feet until
We fancy We can hear them-theD the house is still.
So We know one has straysd of somewhere,
But still her tender presence hoyers in the air,
In her broken words, and baby smile so fair,
And in the tiny garments that she used to wear.
Aud we're sure that somewhere, beyond reach Of sin
Wen find the shining pathway where her feet have
been:
And il at last, thro suffering, Heavens peace we win
Her little hand will ope the gate to let us in.

Around and around the seasons 60;
Green leaves glisten and brown leaves fall;
The wind blows loud and the wind blows low
Aud the clouds drop rain and the clouds drop snow
And what shall be the end Of ital7
Farther behind us the past Ia rolled,
Aud men still cling to the whirling ball;
And the sweet young face grows worn and old,
Aud the fresh young heart grows hard aud cod,
Aud what shall be the end Of 1t all7
Is II best to laugh 2 Is 1t best to sigh7
But the laugh will ring, and the tear will fall;
Forgot in their graves, the old dead lie,
And the living are left some day to die;
Aud what shall be the end Of Il all7
