Riemen has secured title to about hundred of the lots and has options on as many more, and will open them for sale to the public in few days. He has had his eye on this sec tion ever since his arrival in tho city four years ago and as soon as the deeds were forthcoming to the settlers from the townsite association he imme- diately began securing options and buy ing the lots. The late suspension of the mines in this district did not cool his ardor, and during the very days the mines were closed he made several i'm portant purchases.
 The East Globe townsite comprises all that parcel of land lying to the southeast of the city, and that portion lying between Sycamore and Cedar streets to the east of Globe is especially desirable as residence lots. MT. Riemen will open offices next door south of the Trust building Monday and will en- gage in a general real estate and min ing business, but his speciality for the present will be the handling of the East Globe lots above referred to.
 "Yes, have possession of about two hundred lots in East Globe which will put on the market at once,' said Mir. Riemen to the Silver Belt last evening "Globe is going to be great city and I have every confidence that within the next five years a population of at least 3O,OOO people will be living in this city. Of course, to accommodate such population it will be necessary for the city to spread out, and the only

GREAT DEMAND FOR CEMENT BLOCKS

CHARLES M. CLARK BECOMES SOLE OWNER OF PLANT FOR
 THEIR CONSTRUCTION.
FACTORY RUSHED WITH ORDERS
DESCRIPTION OF PLANT FOR TURNING OUT NEW BUILD
 ING MATERIAL.

Preparations are being made by c. NJ. Clark, who has become sole owner of the Globe Cement & Construction company, for the installation of an elevator an dconveyor to lift sand from the bed of Pinal creek and carry it to the mixing plant of the company, cut ting out the more expensive hauling with teams.
 The plant is being rushed with or ders, so much so that the cement brick and building blocks it turns out hardly have time to set before they are taken up by hurried contractors and builders, and though it has capacity of about 5000 bricks day, the factory IS hard put to it to keep up with the demand. Occupying more than an acre of ground on the banks of Pinal creek, at the foot of Cedar street, the Globe Cement & Construction company has been steadily grinding out building ma terial without attracting much atten. tion from the general public, although the growing demand for cement brick 1 in the construction of business houses and residences has made tis location thoroughly familiar to every builder in the city. A description of the plant, however, will prove interesting to the | layman.
 l The cement block is q comparatively new building material which is rapidly gaining in popularity because of its | roo. o1naar,poa apd fha fact that if iS as nearly fire proof as it is possible to make anything. It is composed of one part of the best Portland cement with six parts sand, and the sand from tue bed of Pinal creek is especially adapted to this purpose because of its compost ton.

To Cut Dakota Express Rates.

Sioux Falls, S. D., May 31.-Much
more than the usual amount of bust
ness came up for consideration and
was disposed of during the regular
monthly meeting of the state board of
railroad commissioners, which has
Just been held at the headquarters of
the commission in this city. Perhaps
the most important matter considered
during the meeting was the matter of
the proposed reduction of express
rates throughout South Dakota. The
American, Adams and the Great
Northern express companies had rep
resentatives at the meeting, who con-
ferred with the board in reference to
the proposed reduction. AS result
of the consideration of this question a
new schedule of rates will be pre-
pared and placed in effect on July
in accordance with an act of the last
legislature. The new schedule will re-
duce present express rates through.

making the Pacific will receive $1,000,
while $1,000 will be given to third,
$500 to fourth and $500 to fifth.
AS the strain of driving car con-
tinuously from New York to Seattle
might be too great for one driver, any
member of the crew of a contesting
car who shall have ridden in that car
continuously from New York may
drive. There will be no observers on
the cars The technical committee of
the Automobile Club OF America will
stamp each car before departure.
Contestants will be allowed to replace
without penalization, twice during the
contest, the front and rear axles, the
engine base and cylinders and the
transmission case and steering gear.
These spare parts must be stamped
by the committee before the contest,
however, and held in reserve at Chi

will be in charge of an official appoint

car or use at any point during the

suitable for travelling on railroad
tracks.

New York and that point the journey
across the continent is to be made by
comparatively easy stages The
schedule, which according to the rules
governing the contest, must be rigidly
observed, calls for a run of seventy
three miles on the first day, 207 the
second, $50 the third, 296 the fourth,
244 the fifth and 2S3 the sixth, with a
rest of twelve hours between each
stage. Beyond st. Louis, however, the
drivers may stop over night or not, as
they see fit and any speed of which
their motors are capable is permits

Kansas, Colorado, Wyoming, Idaho,

Gettysburg Monument.

Gettysburg, Pa, May 31.-The mon
ument erected on the battlefield of
Gettysburg to commemorate the SER
vices of the regular army of the Unit
ed States in the Gettysburg campaign
in 1863, which was unveiled this
afternoon, is one of the most interest
ing, dignified and conspicuous memo
rails on the famous battlefield. 1t is
situated on Hancock avenue a little
south of the Bloody Angle where Pick
ett's fearless men struck the union
line with such disastrous results to
the invading army. The memorial is
a shaft eighty-ive feet high from the
ground and is made of light color
granite from the quarries at Mount
Airy, N. c.
The base plinth of the monument is
fourteen and one-half feet square and
seventeen feet high, and is surround
ed by beautiful granite terrace for
ty-three and one-half feet square, with
two-foot high fence or wall. Four
entrances, each fourteen feet wide,
with three granite steps, lead to the
base of the monument. On each side
of the second plinth, which is twelve
and one-half feet high, is an eagle cut
solidly on the face of the plinth. Each
eagle Is four feet high and all are
said to be the finest modelled eagles
ever cut in granite or cast in bronze
in America. Upon the second plinth
rests the plain shaft, which is fifty
three feet tall.
On each side of the plinth is large
bronze panel, said to be the largest
and finest memorial tablets ever cast
in the United States OIL any other
country. The tablet facing the east
contains the following inscriptions:
