1t is perhaps this same remembrance
of the glorious past that is still poten-
tial in the Swedish manner of building.
| One notes the many monumental pub
| lie buildings, structures that would do
! credit to countries with far greater re-
sources, and the generally substantial
and solid character of all manner of
construction. Frame houses are put
together in careful and painstaking
way, with a mass of material that
would stagger our builders. Solid four
inch planks are bolted and screwed to
form the walls and all the joints are
caulked with oakum, much as is done
in shipbuilding. The exterior is often
lathed and covered with stucco or sim
ply boarded. %The interior is plastered.
In the city all modern houses must
have stone, cement OF iron stairs within
brick walls. They must be noncom-
bustible if the house be only two sto-
ries high. There is one general build
ing law that governs all the cities, but
each city enacts supplemental regula-
tions to fit local conditions.

Miss Priest left Minneapolis in May
to join Richard Carries company in
Philadelphia, where the new musical
medley, 5sThe Maid and the Mummy -

opened in Chicago the honors were
