Mrs. j. T. Scott hands The Times a
copy of the New York Herald of April
Is, 1865, published the day after the

Hotel Irwin Sold.

Mrs. H. P. Boardman went to FL
lendale Saturday and closed a deal
whereby the proprietorship of the
Irwin House passed into the hands of
C. H. Horner. The hotel has been on
the market for some months, owing to
the i'll health of its proprietor, Geo. w.
Irwin, who was obliged in the early
part of last winter to go to Southern
California. The hotel was closed to
table boarders about week ago, which
left Glendale in bad shape in..the way of
hotel accommodations, and the travel
ing public had to be taken care of in
some way. The speedy sale to Mr..
Horner was the result and the hotel
was opened again on Sunday morning.
The new proprietor has been star
boarder at the hotel for many years,
while holding down clerical positions in
the stores of Bergendahl and Steinau.
He is off jolly, good natured disposition,
so characteristic in the former land
lord, and the travelling public will find
in him an excellent host.
When Mr.. and Mrs. Irwin return
from California it issplanned to have
them make their home in Oakes.

new BUILDING FOR
FIRST NATIONAL
Plans Completed for Splendid Ur.
to.Date Structure
will Be 25xSO Feet, Of Pressed Brick with Bed.
ford Stone Trimmings, and will Be At.
tractive as Well as Convenient

The First National Bank will build a
fine new structure on its present site.
The plans have been in the hands of
M. E. Beebe, architect of Fargo, for
some weeks, and it was purposed to
have notice for bids published this week,
but the fire in the Walker block at Far
go last Thursday destroyed the plans in
the office of Mr.. Beebe, and a new set
will have to be made, which will delay
the work about two weeks.
The new building will be 25x8O feet,
of one story with a high basement. The
super structure will be built of the best
Of pressed brick with Bedford stone
trimmings. The front will sit in at the
bottom six feet from the sidewalk and
the upper structure will be supported
by four stone pillars.
The inside plans are neat and we'll ap-
pointed. A lobby of eleven feet in
front and running down both sides of
the main banking office, on the east
a distance of 80 feet, where a door
opens into the cashiers room. This
room will be 13x22 feet and will have
side entrance, and on the west side will
be the vault. 8x12, and to the south of
the vault will be the customers room,
cloak room and toilet rooms. In the
southeast corner will be the presidents
room, 13x20. The heating plant will be
in the large basement and the double
vault doors will open on both floors.
The counters and furniture will be of
solid mahogany, and the equipment
throughout will be pleasing in design
and finish. The cost of the building
complete will be over, SIC, 900. It will
be devoted entirely to the business of
the bank and of the Marshall -McC Cart
ney Co.
The present bank building will be
moved to the extreme rear end of the
lot, to sit as it now stands. This is the
building in which Mr.. Marshall started
his banking business IN Oakes in 1886,
and although good building yet, we
are pleased to see that it is soon to be
supplanted by a modern up-to-date solid
structure.
A cement walk will be laid between
the buildings and the old structure used
for renting purposes.
