The Bismarck Tribune says that all who
have seen the plans for the Bismarck pen
itentiary are loud IN their praise of its
design, and as 1T is being erected with all
possible speed it will be enclosed by the
first of January next. The structure, as
designed, is large two-story, solid brick
edldce, with many neat ornamentations
and embellishments. On either corner are
beautiful towers which give the building a
stately appearance and break the monotony
Of the vast brick walls. A large do ne
of majestic proportions is situated on
the main wing, and the windows, doors,
corners and plasters are adorned by beau
tiful keystones, cappings and blocks of the
popular artificial stone manufactured in
this city. Ali material being used in its
construction is the very finest, and no
pains will be spared to give to the people
of the territory creditable and substan-
tial prison. The building is
to be heated with steam and
supplied with hot and cold water to be
used in neatly arranged bath rooms Cells
for 140 prisoners, with all the concomi-
tant closets, warerooms, halls, elevators,
and, in fact, everything which modern
genius has devised for the proper punish
ment and reformation of criminals will be
completed before next spring, Contractor
Megan has charge of the construction, and
is losing no time in fulfilling the require
ments of his contract.

''THE point we tried to make on Sitting Bull, y
said Senator Logan to a Chicago reporter on
Tuesday, Twas that he was not such h-u of
an Indian "a he seemed 10 think. And the other
Indians do not think of him, either, and that
was what we wanted most"
Sitting Bull, it appears, was not greatly
impressed with the Importance and dignity
OF the wonderful senate committee, of
which Senator Logan is a member. The
sagacious old chief thought the
commission we're tipsy, and doubtless
some of them were, and he exhibited
a very natural contempt for the
great pale-faced statesmen. While Re re-
allies that he ia in honorable confinement
at Standing Rock agency, and that he lives
under amnesty for all past offenses,
conditioned upon good behavior, Senator
Logan and his colleagues did not
impose upon his sensibility that they were
the sort of persons in whom he might con
fide and he exhibited a natural inclination
to lfistrust Them. There are white men,
in piAnty, who would have done the same
thing. Nobody has yet ascertained what
inscru BILE end is to be reached by the
pretef ued inspection of the Senate Indian
committee, and from the known character
OF some of the members there can be no
wonder that Sitting Bull was able to take
their II aasure pretty fairly, and it is to his
credi lat he entertains an opinion of
Senaip' Logan that induces that ornate
states. q to indulge in the graceful and
parlia ontery language quoted above.

CONTEMPT EORLdW.

The insincerity of the Republican party
toward any measure of civil service re-
form has most apt illustration Ill the
case of Gen. N NJ. Curtis of New York.
As the Republicans of that state are CLASH
fed, he belongs to the half-breed faction,
which far more than the Stalwarts has
shown symptoms of favor for civil service
reform.
Mr.. Curtis, as valiant laborer in the
half breed vineyard had been rewarded by
the influence of faction with an impor-
tant position under the Treasury Depart
ment. He was SO useful man that he
was made memDer of the half-breed
Republican state committee, and was
chosen Treasurer of that committee. In
this political, dual official position he was
charged with the duty of raising money
for political uses. In order to supply his
lected political assessments from officials
and clerks in the employ of the Federal
government. This act was a violation of
the civil service law, and well knowing
lected monies politically assessed upon
government officials. For this violation
of the civil service laws he was indicted,
tried and convicted, and sentenced to pay
large fine, and removed from Office.
The fine was paid, and the criminal
turned out of Office. Mr.. Curtis resides in
the first assembly district of st. Lawrence
county. Private life it seems is quite
distasteful to the energetic Mr.. Curtis, and
few days since he was nominated for
member of the Legislature by the Republi-
cans of his assembly district, nomination
that is the equivalent of an election. The
Republicans chose to do this thing to
show their contempt for the civil service
law under which Mr.. Curtis was held to
criminal account. Need there be any
great surprise that the members of the
party that purchased the Presidency
should take this opportunity to shoV
their contempt for the law which was
passed solely to promote good government
aud purity in official life. AS star route
plumber was asked and accepted to secure
the election of the Republican can
didatss in 1880, it is apparent that Repub-
licans honor men who raise money for po-
litical uses, but it is not of the slightest con.
sequence If law is violated to do it. Why
not Turn such Rascals out.

Clara Louise Kellogg, with her father

in Bennington, Conn.,, in poor health. Mrs
Kellogg is soon to present to the public q

Mr.. Wm. Steinway, president of the
LeiderkranZ, made the welcome address to
the distinguished German guests who came
over to witness the opening of the North

the Veteran singing society of New York.
The American Art Journal contains the
statement "that at nine months old she
sang in perfect time and tune the song
which her nurse had been accustomed to
sing to her." That is nothing to brag of.
We once met little girl two years old who
spoke fuently five languages. That was

the peculiar pathos of the Celt. Some
of the Irish Saint legends

Christianity burst upon Western Christen-
dom it brought with it an enthusiasm, an
energy and learning greater than could

Owing to the heathsn invasion of Italy and
Gaul and Spain many of the most learned
men of the continent fled to Ireland, and
made the schools of Durrow and Armagh,
in the sixth century, the most famous of
the west. Says Green in his making of
England: "Patrick had not been cen

itself into battle with fiery zeal. Irish
missionaries abored among the Picts of
the Highlands and among the Frisians of
the Northern Seas. An Irish missionary
founded monasteries in Burgundy and the
Apeninee."

ed the confirmation service taking his
theme from Acts 5:32, Sand we are his
witnesses of these things; and so is also
the holy ghost, whom God has given to
them that obey him."
The bishop opened his eloquent remarks
with the assertion that religion was a
settled matter of experiment and in proof
of this advanced the following arguments:
First-Because it can be ada pied to the
wants of all nations.
Second-Because thus it can only satisfy
the wants of individual man at all times.
Ihird-All matters of science are es
tablished through experiment, and there
fore it is probable that if God wishes to
save US, experiment. is the method by
which he will establish US in religion

deacons were confirmed: Herman Meyer,
F. II. Wellemeyer, John Lemke, G. H.
Preke.
Atthe close of an interesting discourse
in the afternoon, at the same church, by
Rev. Mr.. Brown of Michigan, the following
elders were confirmed: Gustav Rube, ".
F. Fritze, Emil Christ, VIM. Kopp.
In the evening Rev. F. Choule preached
at the First German church, Rev. 81. Kaste
at the Second German church in the Ger
man language, and Rev. s. E. Hitler at the
jackson street church in English.
The latter took his text from Paul's
Epistle to the Romans, 14:17: "For the
kingdom of God is not meat and drink,
but righteousness, and peace, and JOY in
the Holy Ghost" The speaker prefaced
his remarks by stating that eighteen years
ago he received his first religious impress
sions in the Jackson street Methodist
church Sabbath school, from teacher who
had long since passed the confines of earth
for those of eternity. He then, after de-
linearing the earnestness of the disciple
ship of Paul in the Christian work, said
that righteousness was the gift of God to
man, which, through the medium of
Jesus Christ, entered his soul.
He then showed how grateful was peacs
to a. country after war, and peace
in families after long strife occurring
therein, but righteousness entering into
mans heart gave peace surprising even
the human understanding. The joy and
hope that also entered into the human
heart when Christ had taken indwelling
therein, was also faithfully portrayed, the
speaker closing with an earnest exhorta-
ton to his audience.
This morning the conference appoint
ments will be promulgated at the closing
session at the Rosabel street church.
