Work on the new buildings in
town and on the new sidewalks has
been almost at a s~tand-still for a
week ~ account of rainy weather.
Yesterday the sun triumphed again
and work was resumed all along
the line. The cement walk has
been completed on the north side
of Main street from Sd to 4th
street, Major Dollard has a new
walk in front of his residence, and
f. S. Birkinbine has a force of
men working on walks by bis resi-
dence. Several others have their
old walks torn up ready for work
to commence on the new ones.
Last night about six O'Clock a
fire was discovered in the back end
Of j. O.. Mason's photograph gal
lery. The fire company was call
ed out and soon had the flames K
tinguished, but not until much
damage had been done to the stock
and scenery in the rooms. Mr.
and Mrs. Mason had just closed
the gallery and gone home to sup
per and how the fire could have
started is a mystery. The proper
ty is insured, but the loss will be
hard to replace as the heat DESTROY
ed all Of his old negatives in the
office. He estimates his loss at
from $500 to $500.
Mr.. and Mrs. Paul Landmann
left last Monday for Kewaskum,
Wis, to attend the wedding of
their sou, DR.. G.. A. Landmann,
Of Parkston, and Miss Linda Ros-
enheimer, which occurs at the
home Of the bride today. The
Parkston Advance of last week
stated that the Doctor had gone to
Chicago to "take a course of post
graduate work." but we think the
Advance is mistaken. We believe
the Doctor mas never before taken
Il course in this line Of work. We
trust however, that he will prove
to be as successful in this as in
other lines that he has mastered.
