The Reception.
the end.

In Saturdays rush, due attention and
space could not be accorded the occasion,
that deserved q glowing and extended ac-
count. Ii was the grand opening Of the
Allen block, 1T which reception the
hustler, X. ". Soulc, appeared in great
glory, and was more than delighted by
the response To his invitation The pub
lie turned out in great numbers. from
twelve to fifteen hundred people of the
three cities. were said to be present and
enjoyed the music of first class orchcs
ira.
The large numbers Of plate glass win
dowS being brilliantly illuminated
throughout the five floors made a wonder
fully fine appearance from the street.
The crowds inside were not only greatly
entertained by the music and the atten-
ton given them by the hustler and his
wife, both of whom were in their happiest
humor, but the extensive elevator was
kept busy conveying the stream of peo-
pie, to and from the five different floors,
where in perfect order were arranged q
remarkably fine stock of everything that
may hereafter be found in this imposing
building. On the first floor can be seen a
multitude of elegant, rs we'll as common,
desks, book cases, sdeboards, wardrobcs,
sewing machines, cabinet beds, &c. The
second floor is we'll filled with carpets, cur
tains, draperies, rugs, art squares, and
similar goods.
The third floor has been appropriated
for the display of chamber sets brass
beds, mattresses extension tables, and
the like.
Parlur suits in abundance, couches
lounges, easels, pictures, fancy chairs and
tables, occupy the fourth floor, while per-
sons desiring anything in the line of
kitchen furniture or stoves will be accom-
modated with a ride to the fifth floor. and
if they desire to continue on to the store
room, on the sixth floor, they will BE- de-
lighted with a fine view unobstructed by
other buildings One scarcely realizes
the immensely of the floor space, as they
go from floor to floor, but no doubt the
hustler will need more, rather than less,
in the business he anticipates doing
May the success Of the past continue with
him, is the wish Of all friends.

MUCH PROGRESS.
Stairs, and Seats in The Hall, Of New Cit
Being Constructed.

The crew Of IL carpenters, with Others
are making rapid progress on the new
city building There is sound of many
hammers In the air, as the construction
of the stairways proceeds.
At the entrance on the east side the
tmbers have been made for the concrete
foundation on which are to be laid the
tiles and fancy marbles for the vcstibule
Immediately opposite the stairs to the
floor above are situated.
In the front part Of the building the
main stairway to the hall has been con
structed 1t is very wide and conven-
iently situated.
At the head Of these stairs, there was
to have been a space partitioned Oft as
sort of ante room, but It as been decided
that it will be more convenient to leave it
open, thus giving more room, which in
the case Of dance especially in tic hall,
will provide sort Of lobby. In the case
of a crowd Of people who are awaiting en-
trance to the hall, 1t will be very con
Notwithstanding any possibility Of "A jam.
There has also been a slight change in
the stairways leading 10 the balcony A
first il was planned to have them enter
over the main stairway, Instead of that
they will be set in the extreme southwest
corner, entering at the rear of the bal
comics. There will also be stairways en-
teripg the hall and balconies at the north
east corner
The framework and foundations for the
chairs in the balcony have been put up;
with five rows on the sides, and eight at
the end.

.SCAFFOLD GIVES WAY.
A DirefuI Accident at the Redwood
Elevator.
TWO CARPENTERS pRECIPITATED

August StrehIow Meets Death and
Charles Benzine Seriously Injured.
Our neighboring village of Redwood
was the scene of shocking Gala nifty
last Friday morning, attended in one in
stance by fatal results. August Strehlow,
a carpenter, residing at l241 Ro ckwell
street, this city, net his death, and
Charles Benzine, fellow carpenter,
also of this city, was seriously injured.
The accident occurred about 5 O. CLOCK
at the elevator in course Of erection by
the Farmers Eleva tor company. By
some manner of means the supports
to aD interior scaffold on which the uu-
fortunate workmen were engaged gave
way, subjecting Messrs. Strehlow and
Benzine to frightful fall. The former
struck the joists of the second floor
and lodged there, but the latter fell all
the way to the ground, distance Of
over thirty feet. Medical aid from this
city was at once summoned; by the
time Drs. Whyte and Masterson could
get to the injured men, some two hours
later, they were still unconscious and
it was at once seen their condition was
critical. Mr.. Strehlow skull was frac-
tured i'll several places and he was
ooZed from the fractures and hemorr-
hage had set in, para lyzing one of his
arms. Life and death were only few
hours apart with him. He never re-
gained consciousness and at noon ex-
pired. Soon after the doctors arrived
Mr.. BenZine revived for a short period,
but afterward relapsed into comatose
state, in which be has since remained
the greater portion of the time His
condition is very serious, although
hopes are had of his recovery. He
was injured about the head, and DR..
Werner, who is now attending him,
says he is suffering from conclusion.
The dead man, August Strehlow, was
55 years ofage and an old resident here,
A large family is left. His funeral was
held Sunday afternoon from tn e Eman-
uel Lutheran church and the body in
tered in the church cemetery.
Charles Benzine is a young married
man residing on Corner street, near
Main. His parents live in the town of
Watertown.
No positive information is had as to
how the accident occurred 1t has been
stated. however, that the breaking
down of the scaffold was occasioned by
another workman either slipping or
jumping to the floor to which the sup
ports were fastened, the jar thus Great
ed tending to loosen the supports, with
the terrible result as outlined above.

Supposed Would-be BURGLAR


In Justice Henze's court Monday
John L. Cornford, claiming to hail from
Portage, was held for examination
next Monday, when he will have a
chance to answer for his rather suspi-
cious conduct on last Sunday afternoon.
It was then that the prisoner was dis
covered by G. Dauffenbach and Fred
Berg in the alley back of Schempf's
Cash store endeavoring to gain an en-
trance to the latter place. Upon notic-
ing he was detected Cornford scaled
the high fence at the west end of the
alley and was forthwith arrested by
Officer Pieritz, who had been notified.
The prisoner is young man about 20
years of age, and is said to have been
employed here during the fall His
actions Sunday afternoon look very
much as though burglary was his intent,
and if this be the case it was a very
bold attempt at daylight depreciation.
