Minneapolis, and has been here ever
since. For many years he was en-
gagged in the farm implement and
machinery business, going on the police
force in 1884. In three years he was

The court house building committee
met yesterday morning and recommend
ed that certified check for $4,000 be
asked for from the bidders for stone
work on the balance of the building.
Mr.. Bracket made motion that all
bonds fer stone and brick work be re-
duced to % per cent, and it was adopted.
with the addition that the same rate be
asked on iron work. From the CONVEX
sation of the members, it was inferred
that it would take about two years in
which to get the walls up and the roof
on, and three more years to finally COM
plete the building. Mr.. Brackett was
of the opinion that the work might be
hurried and completed before that time.
