NATIONAL SOLDIERS HOME.
Members Of Board Of Managers and
Architect kimhaIl View the site.

Capt. III. r. Palmer, n OF the board
of managers Of national soldiers
home, who has the immediate super
vision OF the planning for the national
sanatorium, was at Hot Springs, in
company with Thomas r.. Kimban OF
Omaha, the architect, who designed the
beautiful Burlington station at Omaha
and most of the beautiful buildings at
the Trans-Mississippi exposition, and
is the architect-in-chief of the Worlds
Fair buildings at st. Louis. Mr.. kim
ball came to look over the ground, TO
prepare his designs for the national
sa~natorium. The gentlemen were also
accompanied by Maj Al. b. Hull, CHIEF
surgeon of the L~eavenworth national
home, who came to advise as to the
sanitary arrangements of the sanato-
rum.
They selected the exact locations for
the buildings, and MI. Kimball will Inn
mediately prepare his designs. They
are enthusiastic over the charming lo-
ontion, and think that no spot could be
more delightful of healthful.
The buildings will he Of Spanish de-
sign. The FIRST one will accommodate
about 500 veterans. There will be an
oval hallway attached to the main
Office building, this hallway forming an
open court or plazeta. There will be
six wards attached TO the Railways,
each being separate from the other.
Upon the extreme end of the piezeta
will be the kitchen. Within the plazc-
Ia there will be a fountain of warm
water, while surrounding the fountain
there will be beds of flowers and plants
with seats for tho veterans to lounge
about and make themselves comfort
able, ard where, also, the band may so
for an occasional entertainment. Be
sides this building there will be the
various buildings for the Offices, a fine
band stand, a chapel, a large power
plant for supplying light and water,
and in all, before the plans are COM
pleted, there will be twenty or twenty
five buildings, costing from $4,000 TO
100000 apiece.
Immediately after the legislature
meets, in January, and passes a bill re-
linauishing all jurisdiction and gov
eminent upon the lands that will be
used in connection With the national
sanatorium, the board of managers will
be prepared to begin active operations.
They will then advertise for bids for
the gradings and construction and all
other work contemplated for next year.
Much larger appropriations must be
made Immediately, and the national
board will ask congress to make them
in the deficiency appropriation bin. 1t
is thought by Capt. Palmer that the
sanatorium will be ready for use by
next October. The national board will
meet in New York Dec. 8, when the
plans will be definitely approved.

Remarkable Showing Made by San

During the year ending June 80, '92,
the Woonsocket creamery paid an ay-
erage of n cents per 100 for 4 per cent
milk. The total paid out to patrons
was S14,126.64. During the same pc
Rod the Forestburg creamery paid an
average of 70 cents, and a total Of S12,.
1894. Letcher paid an average of rs
cents and a total of $22,212.87.
In 1895 the number of cows in San
born county was 1888; to-day 1t is

increased from 1875, 900 to 541, 900.
Sanborn county has five creameries

RAILROAD CHANGES.
Northwestern Doing More Business at
WATERFOWL.

A change has been made on the
Northwestern road whereby the Water
town branch has been made the main
line. Heretofore passengers going
East must change at Brookings to the
train from Huron. and in coming West
passengers from that part of the coun-
try must changes cars at Bookings,
and the Twin City train would so on to
Huron and Pierre. 1t is altogether diff
ferent now, and a man taking passage
from WATERFOWL does not have to
change ears until he arrives at the
Twin Cities; but passengers from HUI
ron, Pierre and intermediate points
must change at Brookings, and the
same way on the return trip.
The sleeper has always gone over
the Watertown branch to RedfeId, but
heretofore 1t had to be taken of the
Pierre train at Brookfngs and trans
ferred to the Watertown train. Now
it viii come directly on through Brook
ings and Waterfowl to Redfeld, and
the time consumed in transfer will be
saved, and the early morning train on
the Northwestern viii be more nearly
ON time. The mali car from Minneap-
oils will now come over this line, and
mail will have to be transferred at
Brookings for Pierre, instead Of for
Waterfowl.

EXPLOSION OF AMMONIA DRUMS
MAKES WORK DANGEROUS
FOR FIREMEN.

Sioux City, Iowa, Nov. 1S.-The big
plant of Armour & Co, which occu-
pied three and one-half acres OF
ground at the extreme south end of
the stock yards district, was totally
destroyed by fire which started on the
second floor of the fertilizer building.
The loss, estimated by Charles w.
Lennon, manager OF the company, was
total, or 100000.
The cause Of the fire was SAID by
Mr.. Lennon to have been either spon-
taneous combustion Or an imperfect
drier. There is $751; 500 of insurance
on the property.
Six hundred men will be thrown out
OF employment all winter by the fire.
The fire was discovered by a watch
man Of the building, who a few min.
utes before had pulled a messenger
box on the floor where il started. The
flames quickly spread. Every fireman
In the city was called out. Six streams
OF water were soon being thrown upon
the flames which were cutting the fer
tilizer building, but the pressure a
inadequate. The floor and contents of
the fertilizer building
Burned Like Chat.
The roof fell in and q minute later the
fire burst through into the beef-kill
ing house. From the beef killing
house to the oleo house was only a
step, and when the lard started to
burn the fire presented a most spec
tacular appearance, BY the time the
big beef house, where some 500 car
casses. nearly dressed, were hanging,
caught fire, the whole plant, except the
hog house, was a lake OF flames. Sud
denly there was a terrific explosion,
followed quickly by another and then
another.
Those are the Ammonia drums
shouted Mr.. Lennon to Fire Chief KEEL
logg. TELL your men TO be careful,
there is DANCE Of suffocation."
Twenty-four drums Of 100 pounds Of
ammonia each exploded before the re-
serve supply in the ammonia cistern
was reached. The ignition almost
raised the entire plant of its founda-
ton. The
Flames Soon Burst
through the heavy fire wall which sep
arated the big hog house from the 9th.
er buildings. The hog house was the
last building TO the north, and the
largest of all. Steadily the fire crept
against the wind and through the Of
fee building, which from the first had
been enveloped in flames, When the
warehouse caught all streams were
turned in that direction. but the water
seemed like oil. In the blifding were,
$500 dressed hogs and 2,500.000
pounds of pork produce. After the
fire had gained a goed Roadway In the
hog house all hope of saving any part
Of the plant was abandoned.
The efforts Of the fire department
were as feeble In effect as drops OF
rain in the ocean The fire continued
to burn all day, and in the afternoon
there was another terrific explosion,
which threw bricks and pieces of iron
for hundreds of yards, endangering
thousands Of spectators, but no one
was seriously hurt.
