Formal launching of the armory prof
ect for Company H of this city was
made on Thursday evening at Il meet
ing of members of the guard with the
organization of the Manitowoc Armory

ers and board of directors, the quota

the organization of the stock company
without capitol The four officers, to-
gether with the directors, will consti.
tute the board of directors of the new
association and for a time regular week
ly meetings will be held
The plan of securing funds for the
armory will be to solicit popular sub
scriptions to the amount of one half of
the total cost estimated to be S15 600,
site and building. In event that the re.
quisite 81, 800 is not Forthcoming by the
means of collection adopted, a less pre-.
tentious building will be erected but it
is believed that this contingency will
not arise. Many public spirited citizens
have already signified their Willingness
to subscribe to the fund.
Monies now in the amusement fnnd
of the company and the proceeds of the
recent Company H ball will be diverted
into the armory exchecquer and an i'm

vass for subscriptions. After the erec
tion of the armory the maintenance will
be an easy matter, the state providing
$500 for armory rental which Captain
Buerstatte is positive can be turned in.
to the fund to pay off the principal. 1t
is expected that the rentals ensuing
from the use of the big hall for parties
and other amusements will be sufficient
to maintain the institution.

dorsement of Adjutant Boardman and
