\ grimv but Formidable looking
craft, the like of which has never en-

sea the other day with 10000 pounds of
fresh fish in her hold. The stranger
was the British steam traWler Coquet,
which left Aberdeen, Scotland. last
August on an experimental fishing trip
off the banks Of Newfoundland. She
was built as an experiment, her owner
said. and her arrival at this port is an
accident. which was thrust upon her
owners by tine pack ice at Cape
Breton.
The Coquet had had a hard time of

EoItviIle's Building Prospect

That Holtyille is soon to see con-
siderable activity in the building line
shortly is evident from the fact that
several parties are seeking locations
for various lines Of business here. One
party OF whom We know desires a store
room 50x125 feet and is willing to sign
a lease with the man wno will erect
the same in a suitable location. We
also know of man who will erect a
store 25x125 for good tenant. The
width of the latter's lot alone prevents
these two parties from getting togetn-
er, so there's good chance for a third
man to step in and put the deal
through. Another one of our business
men is seriously considering the idea
of building, while still another is 'urg-
ing his landlord to add to his present
structure, as the tenant is sadly
cramped for and desires more space.
Several residences will undoubtedly be
started shortly, we are told, and, tax
ing it all together, the prospects for a
good healthy growth during the com
ing year is decidedly bright-Holtville
