The original structure has been added

the last wing, fronting on Hennepin ave-

ton between 1t and the main part facing
Fourth street.
Between the two wings there was

bring the two wing floors on a level the
Workmen tore away portion of the sides
and roof, lacked the outer wing up level

putting a brick foundation in the place
OF the sleepers or stills.
Quite deal of interest in the work
going on beneath the grand old trees has
been shown by the thousands who daily
pass this quaint reminder of the early
days of the city's growth.
Levi M Stewart, the owner, who has
resided there since the early sixties, was
seen in his office on the second floor of
corner of Fourth and Hennepin and he
said: You want to get at the age Of the
old house? Well, 1t was built in the early
fifties. 1t was built by H. B. Wright and
1T then faced the road which at that time
passed south of it at a different angle
than Hennepin avenue now pursues.

, Cass Lake, Mimi, Aug. 29.--When
Judge Page Morris made his first draft Of
the bill which is now known as the Nor
ris Chippewa law, he undoubtedly builded
better than he knew. He laid the foun-
dalton for the carrying on Of work under
the direction Of the bureau of forestry
which will take several years, and which
will attract the attention and interest Of
people from all parts of the United States.
The passing Of the bill was the culmi-g
nation Of fight that lasted the better
part Of six months and the final outcome
was the result Of concessions made by
the national park promoters, who had con-
jceived the idea of converting the entire
Chippewa reservation into one vast ma
tional park. Representa- Curtis Of
Kansas and Eddy of Minnesota had at
previous sessions of congress introduced
measures for the disposition Of the Chip
pewa lands and timber, but these bills
either died in committee or were throttled
at the outset. ss3S
81 One of the provisions Of the Norris bill
was the setting aside Of the islands in
