HAVE A HISTORY.
Buildings Being Moved by L.GM Fletcher
We're Built 10 Early Days.

The buildings that L. G.. M. Fletcher
is moving from Cherry street to his
property west of the railroad track are
among the Oldest in the city, and one
of them has quite history The one
Immediately in the rear of the Savings
bank was erected in 1856 by P, K.
Johnson, and faced on Front street a
little north of where the Savings bank
now is. It was the only building in the
block on either side of the street ex-
cept small residence where the Glass
Block now stands, and which was occu-
pied by P K johnson and family 1t
was occupied as postoffice, Mr.. John
son having been Mankato's first post
master, receiving his commission from
President Franklin Pierce General
Harrison, the deputy postmaster,
bunked in small rear room
Mr.. Fletcher purchased the property
in 1859 and converted the building into
residence. He and his wife had their
first meal at home there after they were
married, and continued to live there
for year and half Geo H F etcher
was born there. The building was
afterwards used as millinery store
and as a harness shop. and for other
purposes 1t was moved to Cherry
street in 1879 when Mr.. Fletcher put
up his brick stores.
The other building that is being m owed
was built by Mr.. Fletcher in the sixties
and was occupied as jewelry store oy

This building was also moved back in

Message From Ladysmith Says
the Town Can Hold Out
Indefinitely.

LONDON, Feb. 1.-The supplemental
lists of casualties fill two columns in
nonpareil type in the morning papers,
making 1900 reported thus far for
General Buffers operations north of the
Tugela. The Daily Chronicle estimates
that the total exceeds 1900.
The 40 per cent loss at Spion kop is
greater than any British force ever suf-
fered, except possibly at Albuera, Spain,
in 1911.
The admiralty has warned all half-pay
naval officers to hold themselves in read.
mess for service. This, with the fact
that able seamen not thoroughly expert
enced have been withdrawn from the
Channel squadron, is taken to indicate
the early mobilization of the reserve
feet.
A resolution at meeting of Liberals
to support whatever the government
considered best commanded only two
votes. Instead a motion was adopted
calling for the immediate formation Of
home defense division.
Lord Salisbury has summoned an
other council meeting for Friday or Sat-
urday. Public spirit is at a very low
ebb.
Accounts of the battle of Spion kop,
continue to filter through. All tell of
the terrible effects of the Boer fire.

RETURNABLE FEB. 9TH.
Temper airy Injunction Granted Restrain.
ing Pay of Tax Experts.

The order to show cause in the case
of s. Fl. Grannis against the county Of
ficials and the tax experts have been
made returnable Feb. 9th at 10 a. m.
Judge Cray has granted a temporary
Injunction restraining the auditor and
treasurer from paying to Messrs. Saylor
and FIeener the balance of nearly 50, 600
now due them under the terms of the
contract.
County Attorney Hughes will repre-
sent the county board, auditor and
treasurer in the litigation to follow. He
states that the county is good deal IN
the position of spectator, as Mr.. Well
man agreed at the time the contract
was made to stand the expense of all
litigation that might follow as result
of the contract.
1t appears that when the contract
was made the county commissioners
did not think that the collections
would be anywhere near as large as
they have proved to be. They thought
that a few thousand dollars might be
secured, but the suppression of the per,
sonal property listing was more general
than had been supposed.
Mr.. Fleener takes the matter cool
ly, and says that he is glad that the
courts of this state are to have an OPP
portunity to pass upon the right of the
county boards to enter into such con
tracts. He says that he has no fears as
to the outcome, as the county boards
have very general powers in this state,
and in other states where the laws are
similar the courts have invariably up
held the right of the boards. The ex-
perts will be represented by counsel
when the matter comes up.

News of Buffers Latest Defeat Received
With FOrtitude.
LADYsMITH, Sunday, Jan. 2S.-Helio-
graphed to Swartzkop, north of the
Tugela river.-The news of the prolon-
cation of the siege, resulting from Gen.
eral Buffers failure, is received with
fortitude. We can hold on. The gar
rison is healthier, CHEEKY and confident.
Disease is disappearing and there is no.
horse sickness. The rains give plenty
of grass. We can hear General Buffers
guns still working, and it is rnmored in
camp that he is advancing along another
line. The Boer laagers around are
again full of men, who have returned
from the Upper Tugela. The Beers
have also taken up new position on
hills near Colenso, where they are in
great force. Reinforcements are ap-
parently arriving from the Transvaal.
Large bodies of Beers are also visible,
between here and Potgeiter's drift.
