Rock Island Report.

The annual report of the Chicago, Rock
Island & Pacific Railroad company for the
year ending April 1, 1885, has just been is
sued in book form. In regard to the pas
senger earnings the report says that the de-
crease of $3.50, 564 is made up Of decrease
in earnings on business from connect
ing lines, amounting to S47,791, or
LA per cent, and decrease i'll
earnings from business originating on
its lines of S241,77 or 7.30 per
cent. That a general depression
in all branches of business, commercial and
financial has existed during the past year
is an undeniable fact and that it was con-
fined to no particular locality is demon
strated by the fact that the earnings from
the transportation of passengers, exclusive
of all other items, at 173 strictly local sta
lions, where no competition with other
lines exists, there was decrease of nearly
10 per cent, while the earning at sixty
nine stations which are in competition
with other lines decreased about 81 per
cent, showing that while the depression
has been general, the company has held
its own at competitive points. The move
ment of freight, as compared with the pre-
viOus year, shows an increase of 1863, 800
tons, or 10 per cent. while the rate per
mile has decreased from Ito cents the pre-
vious year to 1.04 for the last year, or 81
per cent.

Presbyterian semi-CentenniaI.

The fftieth anniversary of the planting of
Presbyterianism in this vicinity was duly
celebrated yesterday morning at the Park
Avenue Presbyterian church. The Park
Avenue Presbytery is the direct descendant
of the Fort Smelling society, the pioneer
organization, and for this reason was
selected as the proper place. 1t was
crowded to its utmost capacity, many be-
sides Presbyterians being attracted to its
doors. Some fine music was feature Of
the celebration, the event of which was the
semi-centennial sermon delivered by Rev.
E. D. Neill. DR.. Neill is one Of the pioneer
Presbyterians of Minnesota, and there was
an eminent fitness in this selection. His
theme was the Principles of Primitive
Christianity as Examplifed in its Implanta-
ton in Minnesota. 1t was not only a
doctrinal sermon, but it reviewed in
detail the interesting events of the early
days. 1t will be issued in pamphlet form
shortly.

SALTWATER NEWS.
Special Sermon on the Sunday Ones
ton by DIR. Dunn.
A School Meeting--Cathohc Fair--
Other News.
The sunday Question.

Last evening the Rev. DR.. Dunn preached
at the NJ. E. church on the above subject to
large congregation. The following imper-
feet synopsis will show the principal points
adduced. He chose as his text Mark xvi, L,
The Sabbath is Past. He said. In examin-
ing this question:
upon the word of God-the Old Testament
tendency to treat lightly any arguments
which may be drawn from the Old Testa-
ment. We are not to forget that there are
as good claims for the inspiration and va
lidity of the Old Testament as there are for
the gospels. The man, therefore, who
sneers at the Old Testament is no wiser
than he who, enjoying the glory of the pres
ent civilization, sneers at the formative and
rude periods in our nations life; second
we must not undervalue the Ten Command
ments; third, we must regard each COM
mandment equally binding and sacred.
Second-The law of the Sabbath, as all
the laws of the decalogue, we find founded
in mans nature.
Third-But all laws are not the same,
therefore we must distinguish between per-
manent and temporary laws. Here the
speaker clearly defined the difference,
bringing illustrations from the Mosaic dispen-
sation. He showed that the germs of the
permanent laws in governing the Jewish
race, are to-day existing in our common
laws while many OF the laws passed away
with the then existing state OF affairs
and became temporary. That the spirit and
germ of the fourth commandment had
never been abrogated under the Christian
system; that the change OF day did not
effect the law.
FOurth-That every moral effect sought
by the old system in the seventh day Is
achieved by the Christian Sabbath. The
speaker showed that the Bible does not
make special mention Of the day we should
keep. That from the decalOgue the laws
could not know which of the seven was
necessary. The same specific day could
not be universally observed Therefore,
it is plain that
Fifth-As the Jewish Sabbath was COM
memorative, so is the Christian. The one
of the creation of the physical world, the
other of the recreation of the world.
Finally, as day,
First-The Sabbath is a fundamental
social institution.
Second-The day is a proof Of mans
supernatural origin and spirituality.
Third-CheckS the materialiStic tenden-
cieS of our times.
FOurth-The day is an open and constant
rebuke to skepticism and the great educator
of men.
Fifth-The Sabbath has universal fit
ness for universal need.

The school Meeting.

The meeting for the election of three
members of the SceOol board on Saturday
evening was somewhat lively one, and
was the most representative of any that has
been held here for some time, the principal
citizens being present. Judge Lehmicke. a
member Of the board, explained fully the
financial condition of the school, showing
that some six years ago the amount required
for carrying on the school work had been
reduced from the estimates, and they had
consequently to borrow yearly since. The
tax payments do not usually come at the
time required, and money has to be bor-
rOwed till it comes The amount required
for the year would be $23, 500, which was
granted, as well as $4,000 in addition for
the school in the First ward.
A. King Doe offered series of resolu-
lions censuring the school board, asking a
series of questions, and requesting another
meeting at which these questions might be
answered. The board happened to have on
hand just such replies as were required,
and showed that the expenses per capita
of the pupils had not increased, and that
the expense for each pupil was less than
most cities in the Union. Every question
was answered satisfactorily to the meeting,
which was somewhat surprise to those OPP
posed to the present system.
The old members of the board were
unanimously elected, viz: S. Mathews,
W. T. PerPee and L. Sargent. The board
showed clean Sheet and that they had the
interests of the city at heart.

Lakeland Notes.

The town of Lakeland has one of the
most pleasant locations OF any i'll this sec
ton of Minnesota, occupying level plateau
some sixty feet above Lake St. CrOiX. The
town has number of handsome residences
in the center of large grounds. There are
three principal streets, running north and
south, with cross streets at regular inter-
walls, and all the streets are wide and level.
They show enterprise in the laying out of
the town. Several years ago it was much
larger than at present, and when
the question of locating the court
buildings came up, Lakeland was
only thirteen votes from securing
them instead Of Saltwater. Of late years
the town has improved and at present has
a population of some 600. 1t is in the midst
of an excellent agricultural country, and
there is here a good market for grain,
which is put in an elevator by MI. Higgins,
the buyer To the west of the town
the hills rise in terraces; and each
valley is thiclly wooded. The scenery in
some places is grand, especially at the

cliffs at the north end The chief industry,
however, is the
c. N. NELSON LUMBER CO.'S SAW MILL,
located at the south end of the town on
the banks Of the lake. The saw mill is
one of the most complete in this section.
The 50O-horse power engine runs circular
and gang saw, cutting 100, 900 feet of lum-
Der daily. In addition there are single,
butting, edging and other machines, all of
the most improved patterns. The mill
gives employment to 100 men. There is
also planning mill belonging to the COM
pany which employs score of men, in adj
dition to the 100 employed in the saw mill.
In the planning mill there are number of
machines which plane, tongue and groove,
split and do other work. The mills have
plenty Of yard room, which enables the
company to hold the lumber until the prices
suit. Everything on and about the premises
is admirably managed by competent men.

1t Would be Ridiculous.

Every large building in Minneapolis in
process of construction presents an anus

if carried out would be novel and effective.
These buildings are literally posted over

firms and individuals engaged in their erec-

this: ''The only freproof building in the

From the New Orleans Picayune.
Mrs. Hill is one of the most remarkable
women in the Golden state, being now
wealthy farmer. She owns 400 acres OF
land and has 100 acres set out in pyrethrum,
which plant is in full bloom in May. She

she manufactured ten tons ready for market
and it was poor year. The coming year
Mrs. Hill will plant 200 acres, with an. i'm
mensely increased crop. She began this
novel industry in 1877 under great difficult
ties-her husband had died in 1851, leaving
her with three little children, a debt of ST.
400. her little ranch mortgaged and no
means for support except the fortuitous
work of pair of strong hands and a cour
ageous heart. Within five years she had
lifted the debt by washing, raising chick
ems, taking boarders, and turning her hands
to everything that was possible, early and
late To-day her property and industry are
worth half million dollars. She employs
from fifty to eighty men, women and chill
dren on her ranch. Beside the pyrethrum,
Mrs. Hill has two acres in apple trees, from
which she clears yearly about $500, with
eighteen acres of apricots, walnuts, pears
