Yesterday nftcrnoon about 6 o'clock the ceremony of breaking ground for the uow Kpiacopal church took place. The site selected is on Sixth street , on the lot adjoining that on which the rectory stands and ill the ronr of the present church , The archit ct , , S. E. Maxon , spread the plans of the now structure before these present , and after consultation with seine of the loading members of the parish the lines were laid out , so ns to fix approximately the center of the tower - or to bo built on the southwest corner. It was at this spot that the ground was first broken. There were n goodly number present , and a brief service was conducted by the rector. Rev. Mr. Mackay , who road selec tions from the scriptures concerning the building of the tabernacle , the passages selected being appropriate to this occa sion. Prayer was then ofl'orod , and the rector then mndp a short address , setting forth the requisites for the successful completion of the structure , and earnestly urging his parishioners to show patience , endurance , zeal , and liberality. D. 0. Bloomer , the senior member was then called upon. IIo said that , as ho had boon going about with Mr. Maxon 1'iying off the lines , the thought that come tu hint K.U , "What a big church. Can wo build so largo a one ? " Then came to him the thought of what had boon done iu the past. About eight years ago some of the ladies conceived the idea that a lot should bo purchased and a rectory built. They decided to do so. They had no money and little faith , but soou by earnestness and liberality the means were provided and the rectory paid for. Then $1,000 was raised , for the purchase of this lot , on which the now church waa to stand , and already the ladies have raised $1,000 for the now building. All that was needed was moro faith , and an accompanying liberality. The success of the enterprise depended on each doing hia or her share , as God had blessed them. "Praiso God from whom all blessings flow , " was then sung while Mr. Bloomer took out the first shovelful of dirt , the ceremonies concluding with Ror. Air. Mackay and others , each taking out a shovelful , even to the rector's little child ren who innocently grappled with what was then almost a grca tlift aa it will bo for the parish to raise the means for coin- plenting the church in all its proposed beauty. Mr. S. E. Maxon has prepared the plans for the now church. It is to have a frontage of GO foot and an extreme width of 75 feet , while the extreme depth will bo 110 foot. The front is an ornamented one , and the exterior is tc bo finished in stone ashley work. The intont'on is to put in the stone founda tion nt n cost of $4,000 before Novombei 1st , und then if means can bo secured tc go right ahead with the superstructure , which it is to be hoped will alsu bo of stone , but may bo of brick , some in the parish favoring brick. The contract for the stone work of the foundation ha ! boon lot to Mr. Drexel , of Omaha ; that for the brick work to George Faublo , nnd the wood work to Mr. Murphy. If the plans are followed out , the sup erstructure put up of atone also , St. Paul'i Episcopal church , of Council Bluffs , wil bo ono of the most handsome churches it the west. DR. A. B.

It is stated that the Wabash railway will trnnsfor nil western freight at their local depot after July 1st , but whether this 1U bo done or not romnins to be scon , though this statement is denied by ono of the otlicinls of the road.

True wit and humor never make ou laugh , at least at first. You BOO tin ruth in it , nnd then the ridiculous side trikoa you afterward.
