The rear elevation of the building, as
it will DE completed under Mr.. Mckim' s
directions, is shown by one of the original
drawings. There are no new IDEAS nothing
that the architect can point to when 1t Is

boast possible for him to make is that he
has executed fully the dominant ideas of
those who originally planned the building
The only way in which these plans will be
modified will be because of change of

of construction, &c.

Makes No Appropriation.

In conclusion the solicitor says: The
proposed bill makes no appropriation and
contemplates none to be ultimately made
to pay the owner for the land condemned
for public use. 1t relegates such owner for
payment entirely to fund to be created
by the payment of assessments upon the
land of other people. There is no certainty
whatever Of any payment to the owner,
and the title to his land is involved for
the space of one year in uncertainty. This,
X seems to me, falls far short of a just
compensation"
Mr.. Duvall today also submitted to the
Commissioners a report upon Senate bill

saying that the suggestions made in con-
nection with the bill for the extension of

TWO-DAY COURTSHIP
Dubuque Widow Said ''Yes," but
"MueIler'' Has Fled.

DUBUQUE, IOWA.-A man who was we'll
dressed, wore glasses and looked like a pro-
fessor, came to Dubuque last week and called
at the home of an uptown widow and repre-
sented to her that he had seen a friend of
hers in Minneapolis and that he had re-
quested him to call upon her. He was very
smooth and succeeded in two days in winning
her affections. He proposed marriage and
was accepted. ,,y.:.... - ..-..>
He gave his name, as P. F. Mueller and
said he was. agent for the Kimball Piano
company. in Minneapolis. Through the woman
the. stranger became acquainted with her
brother man named Gukeisen, and unfoided
to him a tale- Of great riches he had made
through investment in a Colorado silver mine.
He also said the best thing his prospective
brother-in-law could do would be to invest
some money in the mine Mueller was evi-
IDENTIFY solicitous regarding Gukeisen, as he
desired that the latter should buy stock SO
as to keep the wealth in the family.
:, Mueller agreed to sell Gukeisen mileage
books good for 1900 miles for $4S. He prom
ised to deliver the books the next day, but
Gukeisen has not seen him since. That night
while his victim was dreaming OF silver bars
Mueller and woman accomplice folded their
tents and silently stole away.
Sheriff Steiner, Saturday morning, received
a postal card from Sheriff Fox of Freeport,
ILL.,. saying that Mueller was wanted in that
city for. passing bogus checks.

on Superior's Hnrbor.
WEST SUPERIOR, WIS.-The United
States government will spend a million dol
lars in making protective piers for the har-
Dor entrance here In the office Of the gov
ernment engineers at Duluth are models OF
the work as it will look when completed, and
specifications are now being made out pre-
partory to bids, which will be received dur
ing the winter. 1t Is not at all sure, how
ever, that the government will contract for
the work, but may do 1t by day labor.
These will be the largest monolithic con-
crete piers ever built, in" the United States
at least, and probably anywhere. They will
be solid concrete, from the foundations
twenty Ave feet below water level, to the
top, ten feat above water, and they will be
5000 feet long, Several hundred thousand
barrels of Portland cement will be required,
something that, In the present state of the
cement market, would be utterly impossible
to furnish inside a year. Immense piers have
Just been completed at Duluth harbor en-
trance, six miles away, but these are with
timber, foundations and are 1,70O feet long.
They were among the largest ever built and
cost $1,000
A portion of the money with which to
build these piers was saved by the govern
ment from the dredging appropriation for the
Duluth Superior harbor. For that work
$3100.0 900 was appropriated, that being the
estimate of cost based on the former meth
ods OF doing work. But by letting the whole
work in one contract which was impossi-
bic before. the government saved $4,000
This built the Duluth piers, bought and
parked the adjacent lands, and now leaves
Gbout 25 per cent of the estimated cost of the
Superior piers on hand.
The commerce passing through these and
the Duluth piers into the head of the lake
is more annually than comes into New York
harbor by several million tons. 1t amounted
last year to above 1900, 900 tons OF freight.
