EVERY FOOTING WEAK
Further Investigation Of Armory Concrete
Reveals Still More Defects.

Further investigation Of the concrete
work in the armory reveals still more de-
fects Several other footings have been
uncovered and examined, revealing that
most of them are weak. 1t is feared that
every footing under columns in the en-
tire building may have to be replaced
Well-knoWn contractors who have seen
the samples of concrete taken from the
building by the building inspector shake
their heads. They say that the sand is
too fine. that the presence Of chunks of
clay and small boulders Indicate that
little or no care was exercised In select
ing the material and they criticize the
appearance Of the cement.
William Porten had a long conference
yesterday afternoon with the arnlory
board and expressed a Willingness to &c
on with the work, but thought that he
was entitled to extra compensation. The
members Of the board would not agree tic
this and may take the work out Of his
hands. The board still holds about $780,
900 and is disposed to keep it until the
entire work has been completed to their
satisfaction.

ton Of Mr.. McAllister that the venture
will be great success.
Arrangements were concluded yester
day to obtain the necessary power from
the General Electric company Of Min
neapolis. Operators already are being
engaged and q search will be made this
week for a site for the first plant

In this case the cool dense air must
take the form of an everything sheet
which preserves it's entirety until the
tension between the two strata is very
great. By way of illustration, the
writer distinctly remembers the con-
ditions attending a destructive tornado
in Iowa. This storm occurred in the
latter part Of August and during the
day the lower atmosphere was sitting
and hot. The storm occurred in the
evening and was followed that night
by a heavy frost. The tornado prob
ably occurred in the advance edge of
an anti-cyclonic area, but in any event
the frost was caused by the cold dense
upper strata of air settling in to take
the place of the warm air as it passed
upward during the action of the storm

FINE ADVERTISING GIFTS
Twin City Firms Spend Thousands 70!
Extensive Novelties


Never before has there been such a
profusion of calendars and advertising
novelties sold in the twin cities as this
season, for distribution the first of the
new year.
The increase in the sale of calendars
has been fully third over last year,
while the sale of leather goods and
novelties for advertising use shows an
increase of 50 per cent. The sale of
calendars is along the line of more :x-
of original paintings. These have been
purchased by big corporations to be
sent out among their customers by the
tens of thousands.
The novelties are for the greater part
in leather goods. They include nicely
bound notebooks, cardcases, billbooks
and pocketbooks. They come in all
kinds of leather and in various sizes.
AS these cost the distributors more,
they are harder to get than the calen.
dars, but are very practical articles
and will be appreciated by all who are
fortunate enough to receive them.
