ing This Week.

A. j. Kannal and Son this week
put the finishing touches on Wor-
Ellington g handsome new city hall,
the contractor, Mr.: Sam Allen,
having completed the carpenter
work few days before.
The new municipal building is q
structure in which the citizens can
take pride, regardless of the fact
thatit is built on the conventional
lines of an ordinary business block.
The size of lot precluded the
possibility of erecting structure
on different lines, but it is q sub
stantial building, ard will meet tho
needs of the city for years to come.
The building is 24x72 feet on the
ground, two stories high and base
ment. The first floor will be used
to house the fire apparatus, and IL
fitted up with dry racks for the
hose and other conveniences. Tho
second floor contains q large hall
for the tiremen's meetings, a larger
room for the city clerks Office, and
toilet and bath room. The build
ing was erected largely for the pur-
pose of afforidng a safe and oonven-
lent housing for the fire apparatus,
and a meeting place for the fire.

met. The total cost OF the building
is about $4,000, of which the fire de-
partment contributed $4,000.

WHO ORIGINATED sHERMAN'S
MARCH?

a highly valuable contribution IL
history is contained in the instalment
of Mark Twain's Autobiography in the
current number of the The North Am
erican Review. 1t is General Grant $
own opinion in regard to the inception
of Sherman's march to the sea.
1t was expressed by General Grant
shortly before his death. in conversa-
ton with Mark Twain. who wrote it
down at once on leaving him.
Neither of us originated the idea
of Sherman's march to the sea. The
enemy did it, said Grant
He went on to say that the enemy
necessarily originated great many of
the plans that the general on the oppo>
site side gets the credit for. In this
case. Sherman had a plan all thought
out. of course. He meant to destroy
the two remaining railroads in that
part of the country, and that would
finish up that region. But General
Hood made a dive at Chattanooga. This
left the march to the sea open TO Sher-
man, and so after sending part of his
army to defend and hold what he had
acquired in the Chattanooga region, he
was perfectly free to proceed, with the
rest of it. through Georgia He saw
the opportunity. and he would not have
been fit for his place if he had not
seized 81

the generals knowledge and get the
ear of the authorities. and he succeeded
in arousing their fears to such an ex-
tent that they telegraphed General
Grant TO stop Sherman.
"'Out of Difference to the govern
ment, telegrapher Sherman and
stopped him twenty-four hours: and
then considering that that was defer
ence enough to the government. I tel
egraphed him to go ahead again."

Joseph 7. Trotter has gone into the
business of farming and horticulture
and has made his entry with delibera =
ton and foresight that promise sue
cess. He looked into the poke and
saw the pig there before he bought IT,
Mr. Trotter came here about a year
ago. and after deciding that conditions
looked good to him. he secured en-
ployment on the Clayson ranch. east Of
Phoenix. which includes one OF the
finest citrus orchards in the world
This employment was secured no.
alone for the wages offered. but to
give him an opportunity TO study the
ranching proposition from the inside
so he would know that nothing was
overlooked.
He has finished his year of investi-
cation and is satisfied with the pros
pcct for the future. and YESTERDAY
through the agency of L. J. Bennitt. he
bought something over sixty acres OF
the ClaysOn ranch for which he paid
somewhere in the neiShborhood of ten
thousand dollars. A part Of ii is i'm
proved and set to orange trees and
part of it is devoted to general crops
MIR. Trotter, who came here from Phil
adelphia, will make this his home and
has already invested in some equip
ment for the cultivation of his farm
and orchard. Though it has not been
so stated by him it is to be presumed
that he will erect a house i'm the near
future for he expects to make his home
here. Mrs. Clayson and children stu
retain the original ranch home. known
as the Clayson hotel, a country resort.
and about twenty acres of land. largely
devoted to the raising Of oranges and
