ACITY HALL.

Dan Bleser submitted a proposition to
the city council on Monday night last
for the sale of the lot on which the ware
house which was Quilted by fire Satur-
day last stands for "a city hall. No price
was set, but Mr. Bleser asked that a
committee be appointed to confer with
him and expressed confidence that salts
factory terms could be agreed upon.
Expressions of opinion by the members
were asked and all seemed favorable to
the purchase of a site for a city hall and
as well approved of the site offered. The
lot is 80 Is and is situated at the cor
ner of Franklin and Ninth.
Manitowoc should have building OF
its own for city offices and council rooms.
1t has now only mass of drlblets and
these it holds by sufferance. The plo-
posed site is well located. Indeed IT Is
desirable to have the Offices removed d
little from the main street. Either this
or some other site should be purchased
at once, even if the erection OF city hall
does not Immediately follow. The city
should have its own home and equip
ment should be in keeping with the
magnitude of interests involved. Delay
will simply increase the cost OF what
must be had some time in the near flu
ture.
Mayor Rahr appointed the following
committee to confer with Mr.. Bleser
Aid Torrison Pohl Levenhagen, Blesct
and Canright. They are to report at the
next meeting.

DIAMONDS IN KETTLE RANGE.

Prof Hobbs of the State University
associated with several biologists of the
Northwest is about TO make Il survey of
the gravel ridges in Wisconsin to search
for diamonds. The object is not SO much
the value of the diamonds which may
be found as to trace their course to the
place they We're formed Diamonds
have been found Iii this state and the
place of their discovery is assurance that
they We're brought down by the immense
glaciers which invaded this state in the
glacial era. There were two invasions
and the diamonds are found in the drift
of the glacier which made the greatest
advance southwark. They have thus
far been found in the terminal moraine,
that is the most southern limit They
may hover be found in cuts in the ridges
and this is the place to search for them
outside of the margin
The Kettle Range which extends
through this county, brief description
of which was given by the writer i'll the
atlas of Manitowoc county issued by G..
Y. Nash, is in one sense a terminal or
marginal moraine, rs its creation is due
to the meeting of two glaciers and the
deposit of the debris they We're carrying.
If the diamonds found at the margin
We're transported by the glaciers, and
biologists are practically agreed on this
head, IL is possible that diamonds may
be found in the transverse cuts Of this
ridge 1t won't be wise for people to
neglect THEN farm work to search for
diamonds, but it is just as well to pre-
serve curious pebbles found in the drift
until an examination of them can be
made There will be no diamond mine
discovered as the diamonds have simply
been transported from their home which
was probably in Labrador where there
are heavy coal deposits. The biologists
request the aid of people in this research
and of children particularly.

THE NEW, BRICKYARD.

1t looks like railroad work at the site
of the new brickyard The foundation
for the brick machine is now almost
completed 1t is on the flat just at the
foot OF the hill A gang of men are at
worl on a railway track which is to be
used to bring clay to the machine. This
track runs along the bluff about 20 feet
from the base The spur track which
the Central will put i'll will run between
the brick yard and the main track. This
spur. as before stated will serve as the
main track for whatever industries may
be located in the valley.
Material for the brick yard is being
hauled in roundabout way from the
city on account of the absence OF streets.
A chute has been put i'll running down
the hill from the top, on which lumber
is slid down.
Mr. Holmes of Chicago WHO'S in charge
Of the construction work says it Is quite
probable the work of manufacturing
brick will be commenced in three weeks,
certainly in 30 days The clay burns
white, almost cream 1t has been test
ed for tile also and has been found suit
able. No test for vitritied brick has yet
been made.
