going at high speed from evidence
at the scene of the accident.
The young men came over from
Sleepy Eye Saturday noon in Mr.. W.

the shoulders and head and johnson
received injuries in the spine and
shoulders. Seifert and Reid escaped

Brew House and Storage Build
ing of Hauenstein's Brewery
Collapses. Building Total
Loss.
Damage Estimated at About
S35,OOO.

The large three-story brew house
and storage building of the John
Hauenstein Brewing company col
lapsed shortly after noon, Thursday
while the workmen were eating dinner.
The last man to leave the building
before the collapse was Frank La
mecker, who narrowly escaped being
buried beneath the ruins. The struc-
ture was strongly built of brick and
re. lnforeed concrete, also strengthened
by large twenty-four- inch beams. It
is believed that the concussion caused
by blasting at the stone quarries,
about two miles distant from the
brewery, caused the walls to gradually
give way and finally collapse.
AS soon as the walls fell the atmo-
sphere was filed with the strong
smell of ammonia which is used to
obtain a low temperature in the brew
house. Several delivery wagons we're
covered with the ruins, when the she'd
adjoining the storage building broke
down.
At the time of the accident there
were about 1900 barrels of beer in
the large watts, which flooded the
driveways. The loss on the build
ing is estimated at from SIS, 900 to
$4,000 and the value of the beer lost
is $4,000, making total of from
$25, 900 to s35, 900.
While the loss is severe one to the
Brewing Co. the management has not
lost courage, but Immediately made
preparations to erect larger and
more substantial building in place of
the one destroyed. A number of men
were at once set to work for cleaning
up and getting the place ready for
the new structure. Richard Greisser
of Chicago, a wellknown architect is
| here experimenting the work.

begin business IN new Offices in all
probabilities. The new home for Mr..
Held's drafting force is to be on the
seventh floor Of the Realty building,
and this floor has been arranged to
suit the needs OF the architect who
planned it. Mr.. Held will utilize the
greater part Of the top floor Of the

DOORYARD NEWS.

To THE EDITOR OF THE JOURNAL: While
reading the locals in a certain paper recently
the thought came to me, What constitutes
news? Should we mention just what happens
out of the ordinary should we sit down and
write it for the paper if our nearest neighbor
drops in for little chat? At some seasons of
the year the farmers are very busy hauling
their potatoes to the station. Should we tell
you every time they go, or consider it worth
mentioning if one goes to the store for gro
ceries. We might make up in quantity what
we lack in quality, if we did So Please answer
in your paper there may be others besides
myself who would like to know
CORRESPONDENT
We think our correspondent has a pretty
good idea of what constitutes local news That
the farmers are hauling potatoes or other
produce to the station for shipment is news;
but it is not necessary to mention every trip
made, or to record their errands to the grocery
store. Crop and stock items, sales of property,
new buildings, church news, and everything
that concerns the moral and material interests
of community, comes within the province of
the local correspondent.-Ed.
