Mrs. Louis ]. Nelson arrived in the

will tomorrow throw open their doors

.ergy and pluck will meet with and de-
serves support.
A movement is on foot, says John B.
Adams, to cover six of the thirty foot
lots that were recently burned over
with two story brick buildings and
basement built of stone. There is a
strong probability of all six going up
together as soon as building material
can be had The six lots are owned by
John Biork, Adams & Burke, Plisch "
Bliss and L. w. Bloom. A solid brick
block on front street would make that
part of town look pretty substantial.
