cHuRoH NOTES.
Rev. F. Stanley Root Breaches At
 The Uufkad Church

| AAAS CAAASc0 Rev. F. Stanley Root, late of Seymour, preached at the United church yesterday
 morning from the words, ssWhereupon, o
 King Agrippa, was not disobedient unto
 the heavenly vision" There was good at tendance considering the weather. The apos- tie Paul's conversion, said the speaker, was not less wonderful than the great work and
 mighty influence for good of his after life. At midday in sight of the glittering domes
 and minarets of Damascus, holding from the
 chief priests and rulers a commission to ex-
 tirpate Christians and their doctrines, a
 power and light brighter than that of the
 monday sun felled him to the earth With
 the light and stroke from heaven came the
 voice calling him by name, instantly con-
 verting him from sims darkness to Gods mar vellous light. That voice of God gave him
 the higher and holier commission, to go out
 ''unto all the world and proclaim to Jew and Gentle, to bond and free, before kings
 and emperors, well as to the rudest and
 lowest of mankind the gospel call heard by
 himself in the heavenly vision, from natures
 darkness to the light of 1ife' That light which sprang from the manager in Bethlehem where to the watching shepherds was pro claimed Ftpeace and good will to men" is the sight that only little later gleamed, and
 now gleams, the speaker said, from.the cross of Calvary. The life giving, wonder work
 ing power of Christianity was illustrated by beautiful striking contrasts between it's lowly origin and vices and it's progress and effect
 now seen all over the world. Practical les
 sons of our daily life duty were drawn from
 the subject to be easily remembered and laid to heart. The listeners were well paid for
 braving the storm in hearing the excellent
 and eloquent sermon The choir and eongre- gational singing added their usual fitting help to the worship of the morning.
 Rev. Dr. J. O. Peck preached an able dis
 course yesterday morning at Trinity M. E. church, passing his remarks on the words
 found in 2d Corinthians, 3d chapter, 2d verse, 'eYe are our epistles, written in our
 hearts, known and read of all men" Next Sunday there will be Christmas Sunday school services in this church, with special music for the occasion.
 In consequence of the severe storm but few people were at the Davenport church yester- day morning, when the pastor preached an able discourse from Matthew 19, 29. The Rev. MT. Meserve referred to the storm (not unpleasantly) saying women and children could not be blamed for not attending church during such indictment weather and
 some men were likewise entitled to excuse,
 but the storm kept many men from church who would not hesitate to go out in similar storms for any business matter. Fortunate
 ly the storm affords an opportunity for the
 use of this illustration, otherwise I should
 have been without it." Another example
 was an allusion to people who held decided
 opinion in opposition to the truth when but one of the two could be maintained. In such cases opinions should give way and truth pre-

Graey fired one shot, however, which badly wounded Browning, who led the shoot ing, but he is still alive and may recover

PIE:RRE,

4 Manufacturing Business
can easily be established at Pierre, ow-
ing to the low freight rates obtained,
competition between river and railroad
transportation, the abundance OF wood,
which is now selling for 81 cord, and
the immense quantity of coal and other
raw material in the adjacent reservation
west of the river.
a Jobbing Trade
has already beendeveloped by Pierre mer-
chants with the Black Hills and the
country up and down the river, and
with q lower rate of freight than can be
obtained at Watertown or Huron, or
any other point in South Central Dako-
ia, and being tho only railroad point on
the boundary Of the reservation soon to
be opened, Pierre is destined tobecome .
great jobbinq center.
Activity in Real Estate
began last year and more sales were
made than in the previous two years Of
the city's growth, and there has been q
healthful, gradual advance in the price
of city property, and every one has made
money by operating in real estate. The
indications point to an early springs
business and an advance in prices.

a Shipping Point.


Pierre is a shipping point for all
Black Hills freight sent over both tho
Chicago & North Western and Chicago,
Milwaukee Il St. Paul Railways. Ship
ments via. the latter line to it's Missouri
River terminus at Chamberlain are sent
up the river to Pierre for trans:shipment
to the Hills. The traffic between
Pierre and Deadwooa is immense. In
the transportation of freight there are
10000 oxen and mules and 1900 men
constantly employed. the tonnage
amounting to about 70, ,000, 0c0 pounds
per annum, ,and the money annually paid
for freightirg, amounting to over $780,
900 is expended in Pierre.
Pierre is the headquarters for Military
and Ranch Supplies forwarded by river
to the various forts and military posts
and to different points along the '.Big
Muddy" where small settlements have
sprung up. Pierre has the trade, alto
gether, Of not less than $4,000 people,
including Indians. U. s. A. Quarter
masters Office, government storehouses,
and Cfices of Collector of Customs,
and Internal Revenue Collector are To-
Gated here. In the river traffic there
are twenty-five steamers engaged during
the season, plying between Pierre and
points above and below.
Building Activity.
During the past season there was
erected brick courthouse, three brick
business blocks, and over 800 wooden
buildings. involving an expenditure of
over 81 500, 900. There is now in pro-
cess of erection the Park Hotel, q brick
structure lO0x120, four stories high, and
everything indicates that there will be q
great increase in building during the
year 1884, and there will be an active de-
mand for building material and mechan-
les in all branches of trade.
The first industry established in Pierre
was brick making, of which there was
manufactured last season over 1000, 600
of superior quality, and arrangements
have now been completed to manufact-
ure more than 8, ,000, 600 the coming sea-
son. There is great demand here for
iron work, and foundry and machine
shop which could make cast pieces for
buildings, breaking plows for the farm
ers, and do repair work on implements
and steamboats,, would do very profit
able business. ->
