ANOTHER BLOCK
N. S Sachs To Erect Three
! Story Building.
Present Houses on Fort and Bere
eania to Go VIII Widen
Fort Street.

The wooden building at the corner
Of Fort and Beretania, opposite the
Progress Block, will be torn down at
the beginning of the year TO make way
for fine three-story business block OF
pressed yellow brick, iron and plate
glass. The tenants OF the present
building have all been notified to leave
by January LIST, in order that there
shall be no delay in the work of demo-
lition.
Upper Fort street will not only be
benefited by the erection Of the new
block. but the street itself will be
widened seventeen feet, in direct line
with the fronts Of the Progress Block
and Orpheum Theater. Beretania street
also gains fourteen feet bringing the
building into line with the Fire Depart
ment on the other mauka corner.
N S. Sachs, the present owner of
the valuable corner property, has plac-
ed the preliminary work ofplanning the
building in the hands of H. L. Kerr C
Co., the architects, who expect to have
the details fully completed before the
work Of demolition is finished. The
| building on both streets will have a
| flush front, rounding corner, and will
| be constructed Of pressed yellow brick
with terra Gotta trimmings The cor
nice will consist mostly of terra Gotta.
! On the lower floor will be seven
stores, two facing on Fort street, four
on Beretania while the largest will oc-
/ entrance on Beretania street. In the
rear a large court will be reserved in
which warehouses for the storage OF
goods can be erected should the bust
ness demands of the stores make this
necessary. The second story will be
arranged for offices or hotel rooms as
occasion arises, the forty rooms to be
arranged en- suite or single. The third
floor, also containing forty rooms, will
| be devoted entirely to rooming pur-
poses Both floors Will be thoroughly
equipped with toilet and bath rooms,
and the entire building arranged
with a view of securing as much light
and ventilation as possible.
| The widening of Fort and Beretania
streets by the removal Of the old build
| ings or the Sachs corner and the oppo-
| site corner will make a wonderful inn
IprOvement.

FORGOT TO SALUTE.
COlored Captain Who Has Pro-
found Respect for the Flag.

During the parade of the Forty-ninth
regiment yesterday morning a colored
officer, Captain Staff, expressed his in
dignation in very strong terms toward
some white soldiers who were viewing
the march because they unfortunately
failed to doff their hats when the ma
tional and ,regimental emblems were
carried past them.
IF yo' soldiers don't know enough to
salute yo' flag in friendly country
what does yo' expect to do when yo'
gets in foreign country, Ell? Take
yc' hats off at once and show dat yo'
is American soldiers
The hats came off in hurry and the
indignant officer passed dignifedly on
evidently satisfied that he had taught
one good lesson of patriotism.

DeWcy'S Illness

San Francisco, March 13-The state or
Admiral Dewey's health has been the

Admiral Dewey had half of his liver cut
out by the surgeon of the English garrl-

at that time was captain of the frigate
Juniata, which was on a rowing commits

reached Malta he was seriously Ill. and
the British surgeon there, as heroic
measure. removed about one-half of his
liver. Dewey was then Obliged to relln-

CAN NOT SAVE The
CRlSIOBAL COLON

New York, March ia dispatch to
the, Herald from Washington says; The
navy department has abandoned all hope
of the recovery of the armored cruiser
Cristobal Colon, sunk in the battle OF
July 3. Engineers representing the
Swedish Wrecking company, who in
spected the wreck, have left for Stock
holm without making any proposition
to the department, and it is assumed
from this that no action will be taken
because of the hopelessness of the task.
From present indca tons therefore, the
only ships added to the service as re-
suit of the campaign in the Atlantic
ocean, will be the cruiser Reina Mercedes,
now undergoing repairs at Santiago, and
the gunboatS AlVaradO and SandoVal

TWO NEW TRIALS
WERE GRANTED
Special to the Inter Mountain.

Special to the Inter Mountain.
Helena, Mont, March 13.-The supreme
court today granted new trials in two
damage suits against the Montana Cen
trail. Parrin VS.. The Montana Central,
appealed from jefferson county, and
Daniel p. Workman VS.. Montana Central
appealed from the district court of Lewis
and Clarke county. Parrin sued the com
pany for 1895 for nine head of mich COWS
and for two mares killed by the company
in Jefferson county. He secured a verdict
for $71O. The company appea1ed. The
court below had instructed the jury that
in estimating the amount of damages sus-
tanned by Parrin they had right to take
in consideration the fact that part of the
stock killed was used by the plaintiff in
his dairy business. This the court in per
curiam holds was a prejudicial error.
The case of Workman VS.. the company
was tried here four years ago and has
been hanging fire in the courts ever since.
Workman took a contract to line the
Wickes tunnel with stone. Before ne
completed the work the company ordered
him to stop work. The company then
took hold and finished the contract ltsei1,
claiming that he was not performing the
work satisfactorily and that it had power
to take the work out of his hands by Vlr-
| tue of claims empowering in the contract
| the chief engineer N. d. Miller, to 40 so
| whenever he believed Workman was not
| giving a good job Workman brought sun
! against the company for $4,000. He Sc
| cured Judgment for $15,500. The company
| appealed. In long opinion by the chiel
| instice the supreme court finds that many
| of the points raised by the company or
| appeal were we'll taken, that the court
below erred in denying a motion for non
| s,,it. that the courts instructions were lr
uany instances erroneous and that new
trial should be granted. The court grants
Workman permission to amend his com
nlaint to conform with the suggestions
contained in the opinion Many of tbs
! witnesses in this case, which has attract
| ed more or less attention because o.
numerous knotty points, are out OF the
state.
The chief justice today announced tina

cepted the same with regret. The cour
