been only four days in the custody of
General Miles.
IF the letter was written, subse-
Quent events have revealed the fact
that at that moment when an agoniz-

man, by his own showing, was con

Lester B. Flood has purchased for
Alfred Pillsbury, who, in turn, makes
a ten-year lease to the Minikahda club,
about 200 lots adjoining the old prop
erty on the west shore Of Lake Calhoun.
This plat Of land, amounting to about
ent sixty acres which the club already
owns, and in addition to a possible ex-
tension Of the golf course, will give
the club another new and desirable fea-
ture which, up to the present time, it
has lacked.
The property is southwest Of the club

mer- garden spot. AT present most OF
the club property is practically open
prairie and devoted almost entirely to
golf. Those who DO not play golf and
heretofore had only the clubhouse
With this wooded spot improved and
beautifed, there will be an ideal syl-
van spot for the quiet ones. Summer
parties and fetes can be held in the
grounds and in the rustic lodges which
will be erected. A nexcellent view OF

thru the, fringe Of trees along the lake
front there will be wonderful view
of the east shore of Lake Calhoun and
the lake itself.
Thru Mr.. Elwood, who arranged the
purchase, the new property was pur-
chased from John rs :..orris for Alfred
Pillsbury, the price being about $1O,-
900. Mr.. Pillsbury makes a ten-year
lease to the club, which will probably
buy or renew at the expiration. The
property is nearly triangular in shape
and bounded by Thirty fourth street,
Excelsior avenue The club already has
the land between the lake and the
city limits, beginning at Thirty second
street and extending south to Thirty
fourth street. The property has near
I ly a quarter of a mile Of shore line, the
banks being high and slightly. With
this increase of over 80 per cent, the
club will rank with the best in the
country.
By taking the open portion Of the
new property and rearranging the
course, an eighteen-hole course, thoroly
up to every standard, could be provided
for the club. This may follow, espe.
cially should the club decide to acquire
still lmore land. The fine woods, how
ever, will not be disturbed for this
purpose. They will be kept for the non
golfers Of the club, who outnumber the
golfers about three to one.
