REV. MIR. OTTMANN PREACHED.

Occupied the Pulpit of the Zion Luth-
 eran Church sterday-Delivered
 Two Very Able Sermons.
 Rev. Frederick Ottmann, the new pastor of the Zion German Lutheran church, corner of Davenport avenue and Ward street, occupied the pulpit of this church for the first time yesterday morning. The church was well filled to hear him preach. He took for his text ITO lead you to salvation, will above all things preach the gospel of Jesus Christ" IT Corinthians 3-4-11. He divided his sub ject into two parts, namely, 1, Worldly wisdom and eloquence cannot lead you to salvation; ?. Nor can this be done by expounding the divine law, but solely by the gospel of Jesus Christ. Rev. Mir. Ottmann has fine delivery and his enunciation Is clear and distinct. He said that he had been called to the pastorate of the Zion church to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ, and that as long as he was pastor of the church he would preach the Word of God and that alone and hoped he would have the cooperation of every attendant in
 
 very forceful and to the point. He was listened to very attentively by those present. During the service Organist Max Dressler rendered several organ selections and the choir sang two songs After the sermon Rev. Mir. Ottmann said he wished to thank for himself and his wife the members of the con Hregation and their friends for their many acts of kindness. He announced that the parochial school connected with the church would open for the fall term tomorrow and that the English language as well as the German lan- guage Is taught in the school. The school will open with about sixty-five children. In the evening Rev. Mir. Ott- mann preached an able sermon on the gospel of the day. There were fully as many present at this service as at the morning service.

and would, with the railway built, | transfer the Che-Foo trade into Wei
 Hai-Wei hands It is pity that It.
 tie compromise cannot be effected. Grant Port Arthur some of the British
 caution and her works would be im- proved and money saved: grant Wei
 Hai-Wei some of the Russian lavish ness, and by now we should have had a thriving commercial community on the shores of the harbor. As it now is, the Russians will make 1t difficult for the
 other nations to get Chinese labor at
 their ports. At Dalny we learned that
 they were paying thirty cents a day
 to their coolies; of that, probably the contractors squeeze good deal, but still 1t is high wages, and the coolies cross over in their thousands.
 Hearing so much of the lavish ex- penditure, we asked how much per
 mou (one- sixth of an acre) the Rus sians paid for their land upon which
 Dalny is to be built. We were told. au- thoritatively $s each mou The price seemed small, but an explanation was forthcomingf, thought it may be only yarn to be taken with grain of salt The story goes that owners of a piece of land were brought before a Russian officer, who offered $S mou for the land. If the offer was declined the own- CT was passed outside and given twen- ty-five lashes, then again brought be- fore the would be purchaser. This time he was probably more reasonable, but if not, the same ceremony was repeat ed. This story may not be true, though it was told us by an inhabitant: but this, al least, is certain, the price paid was $S, which is far below the market price, and that the Russians will not sell any of the land now that they are the holders; foreigners will be granted leases.
 4 story rather the oppos'ta of the forced sales was related to US at Dalny. When the civil engineers were looking for stone for some buildings they came across a village at the head of Talien- Wan Bay, where a number of socd houses stood apart, which they wera told were almshouses. It appears that forty years previously an English feet had Wintered in the bay, and during their shore exercises had damaged the crops of the natives. To compensate them they paid a sum of money, but s soon as the money was obtained the villagers fell out as to it's division, and, being unable to agree decided to build these almshouses, putting up at the same time tablet recording how they came to be built.-From the London Globe

Russian Work on Great Railway En-
 terprise.
 In q former article I described my visit to Port Arthur I found Talien- Wan not les interesting. We were talk en on board a smart little steam launch built by Farnham, of Shanghai, and be- longing to the China Eastern Railway company. We were not allowed to pay for our passage, but the number of pas sengers was noted by the conductor for the information of the company, and that was all that was required.
 At Dalnv, which means far away" things are indeed busy There are six hundred Russian workmen and sixteen thousand Chinese cooies now at work They have erected some hundred or two brick and stone buildings for the work men; there is a fine stone building for Mir. Sacharoff, the head of the Chinese Eastern Railway company, and a hotel of two stories with sixteen bedrooms, and fine dining room was to be open ed in two weeks time, The buildings have as yet all been erected upon a piece of land which will be reserved for admlnlstrative purposes, but the land for sume miles around has been pur- chased from the Chinese, and a model commercial town is to be built.
 The town will lie on fiat ground on a prolnontoty running out into Victoria Lay, which is at the northwest corner cl the large bay known as Talien-Wan Fol about two to three miles the land is flat before coming to hills rising from five hundred to six hundred feet; 1t Will be somewhat badly exposed. It is to be built with a large central cir GUS, in which will be the postoffice and other government buildings not neceS- sarly placed in the administrative part. Running from the circus will be several streets forming radii to it, and other streets will intersect these, being built tangential to circles concentric
