A very disgusting piece of vandalism
was brought to the attention of the
people the past week when Minard
Shepardson, who has been digging the
new city well, after working all day and
breaking several drills, finally brought
from the we'll a short piece of gas pipe.
The piece of pipe was thrown into the
we'll out of pure righteousness and the
guilty party should be serving time in
the p~enitentiary. Mr. Shepardson not
only lost valuable time but it will take
quite a little money to repair the
machines as the result of this malicious
act.
Senator L. A. Simpson has the plans
completed and will commence in a few
days making extensive changes and re-
pairs on the Oukrop building on Barnes
street. The front part of the build

placed by a two.story brick building 25x
go feet. The newer part of the old
building will be repaired and put into
frst-class shape. The dimensions of
the first floor after the changes are
made will be practically 25xoo feet,
which will give ample room for a first
class store. This store will be occupied
by Reed Bros, the popular merchants
now located on Sims street. The second
floor of the new building will be fitted
up for offices. The change will greatly
improve the general appearance of
Barnes street.
