dicted by many that owing to the many
dwellings built last season comparatively
few would be erected this year. But
such is not the case. There is not a
house to be rented in. the city and sew.
eral persons are living in barns until
they can build. The contractors say
that more homes will be built this year
than last. and that they will be more
costly if anything. At present there are
dozen under waT. The city is full OF
strangers and house hunters. Several
new business blocks are being planned.
The advanced price of materials does not
seem to make any difference.
Extensive preparations are being made
to entertain the state encampment g.
A. r. which meets here in June. It is
expected the attendance will exceed any
encampment ever held in the state, owing
partly to the reputation Brookings people
have as entertainers. also because Of
the expected presence Of q. A. r. men
of national reputation.

MINERS CAUGHT BY CAvEIN
HOPE OF SAVING LIFE.
Negaunee Has Reputation of Being
An Unlucky Mine Trouble
Due to Quicksand.

Ispheming, Mich, Jan. Fifteen or
more men were entombed in the
Negaunee mine this afternoon and it
is feared all will perish. The work
of rescue was begun without delay
but up to a late hour this evening none
of the entombed prisoners had been
brought to the surface. There are
two shafts to the mine, but it is be-
lieved all chance for escape vas shut
off when the cave-in occurred.
The accident was the result of a
cave-in at the bottom Of the old shaft
and had it occurred half an hour soon
er about $50 men would have been kill
ed. 1t is thought the bodies can
not be found within "a hours.
The Negaunee mine is one of the
most unlucky properties in the Lake
Superior district. Much trouble has
resulted in sinking and drifting from
surplus water and quicksands.
It was at this mine that $1,000, zoe
was recently expended to sink a shaft
to the ledge.

Negaunee, Mich, Jan. Sup to 10

bodies can be recovered.
