Oonsecration Of the Church at
White Earth.

White Earth.
On Tuesday last, August 23rd,
the church at White Earth was con-
secrated by the name of ''The Church
of St. Columbia" The service was,
we need not say, most solemn and
impressive one, and the Bishop was
largely assisted by the Indian clergy
who either rendered portions of it
themselves, or interpreted for the
Bishop and preacher. Morning prayer
was said in their own language by
Rev. ]. Sunnegabowh, the deacons
reading the lessons also in Chippewa.
The Rev. Knickerbocker preached
the sermon, taking for his text the
opening words ofthe Church service,
(Hab. 2, 2o) 1.-The Lord is in His
holy temple" He expressed his joy
at being present on such an occasion,
told them OF the joy which was doubt
less being felt in heaven. reminded
them of the many ON earth who
would be with them in the spirit of
joy today, over and above the great
number present within those walls,
and by forcible contrast between
what he had seen on a visit to White
Earth ~ years ago, and the state of
things today, The preacher showed
the great cause there was for rcjoic-
ing. Quite large number of Indi-
ans remained to Holy Communion.
and then offerings OF beautiful bead
work contributed largely to the value
Of the offertory collection. The
church is a fine stone bull ding of con-
siderable dimensions, with tower and
spire, and the windows are all filed
with fine stained: glass. Its situation

The Clock OF Strassburg.

The late transit of Venus curiously
proved the accurate calculations of the
ancient makers of that famous horo-
logical curiosity, the Strassburg clock.
"A few days before the transit, the
american Register tells us, visitors to
the cathedral, inspecting in the planeta-
rum attached to the clock, noticed that
one of the small gilt balls representing
Venus was gradually moving toward a
point between the sun and the earth,
and on the day of the passage the ball
stood exactly between them. Old Con-
rad Dasypodius, the Strassburg mathe-
matician, superintendent the manufact-
ure of the clock and its ACCOMPANYING
planetarium some time between 157i-
"a, the dates differing according to
various authorities; and it is interesting
to note that, after three hundred wears
of existence, the clock faithfully full
fills the calculations of its dead inventor.
A correspondent sends the foregoing,
which is quoted from the London
Graphic, expresses doubts of its cor
rectness, and asks for information. One
OF our astronomical correspondents
sends us the following notes:
The construction of a machine which
could exhibit accurately the motions.
distances and magnitude of the planets.
and could be kept in running order for
three hundred years, is an impossibility.
Such piece of mechanism would re-
qulre the skill of the Great Architect of
worlds.
The history of the Strassburp clock
and the planetarium connected with IL
bears witness, like everything else tn
the imperfection of Workmanship. and
the frequent necessity of changes and
repairs.
The clock stands n the cathedral. and
dates back to 1852, when it was mt nm
under the patronage of Berthold de
Buchek, at the time Bishop of Strass-
burg. As time passed on, the clock oot
out of order. and in 1547 three distin-
guished mathematicians were commits
stoned to put it in repair. They all
died before the work was finished. and
Conrad Dasypodius undertook the re-
sponsible task, which he completed in
four years. The clock worked well

He had been uniformly unfortunate,

trouble had been that he had convinced
himself that his wife did not love him.
His jealousy once aroused. he attached
great weight To every trifling circum-
stance, and many of his projects failed
simply because he had no great desire
to succeed. His wife's complaints were
reproaches that maddened him. And

To never return. He sent what little
money he earned home, but his wife's
complaints followed him i'm her letters.
He forgot that she did not understand
his intentions and took n mournful sat

might send her money. Finally there
came time when he could earn no

made him one of the widest of the

Making Shoes in Haste. .

A few years ago it was by no means
an uncommon thing to see advertise
ments by tailors proffering to make en-
tire suits of clothes in forty-eight hours.
or even less, competition forcing reduc-
ton to thirty, and in at least one in
stance to twenty-four hours. Whether
1t was that there were so few persons
who demanded entire suits in such haste
that the tailors found their expedition
was uncalled for, or that the tailors
found they could disappoint customer
Just as well on basis of week as a
day, those advertisements of active
work faded gradually out of sight. The
last traces OF them were proffers of "a
pair of pantaloons made in six hours"
or "a vest made in four hours" and
even those are seen no longer But at
their best the tailOrs really did nothing
so very extraordinary. The feats have
been accomplished of shearing wool
from the sheep, carding, spinning, dye
ing, weaving, and making it into a suit
of clothing complete within a single
day, and in like space of time an en-
tire suit of clothes has been made from
cotton that was in the bolls when the
day began. 1t is hardly to be expected.
however, that the best results were at
tanned in such limited time. The lates.
advertisement of this sort is put forth
by a Broadway shoemaker, who prom.
ises: "Shoes made to order in twenty
four hours
"Oh, can do better than that, if ]
want to, he said. 81 can turn out a
pair OF shoes in twelve hours, or even
less. 1t is now ten o'clock, a. IN. Give
your order for a pair of shoes now, and
L III warrant they will be ready for you
at six o'clock this evening. How do |
do 1t? BY team work. 1t could not be
done by single work. There are five
distinct steps or processes in the making
OF the upper of a shoe, and no less than
eleven in putting on and finishing the
sole. In team work each of those six
teen processes is intrusted to an individ-
ual who does nothing else but that one
particular thing all day long and week
after week. In the dull season l work
only one team, but in the busy season
two teams. Each team can turn out
one hundred and ten pairs a week. The
dull season runs from the end of June
to the middle of September, and from
the middle of December to the middle
or end of February. Team work has
several advantages. 1t enables the men
to earn better wages regularly than
they would by single work-say ten dol
lars to fourteen dollars per week by the
former and seven dollars to fifteen dol
lars by the latter-and at the same time
renders the employer comparatively in
dependent of the whims and possibly
the intOxication of wOrkmen, which is
no small matter. Then a team turns
out more work than an equal number
of single workers could, and with better
finish-since each man is expert on the
one thing he does-with uniformity
that could not otherwise be obtained,
and cheaper withal. But an employer
must have large business to Justify
him in keeping a team at work. IN
