FOR MAIN STREET
WORK COMMENCES ON NEW
STONE BUILDING FOR N. r.
MCDONALD.

A new stone store building will
soon grace Roundup's Main street ac-
tual work having been started We'd
nesday. The building is being erected
by N. r. Mcdonald, the Second Street
East butcher on the ground recently
purchased by him north of Marshalls
store. It will be constructed Of native
stone, the intention being to have it
resemble as much as possible the store
which it will join and the north wall
of which will be utilized as party
wall. 1t will be 25 by 20 feet in size
but for the present will only be one
story high. The ground was cleared
Wednesday afternoon, actual work on
the foundation being commenced this
morning. The new building will be
modern thruOut.
1t is possible that the Montana Land
& Investment Company, which owns
an eleven-foot strip north OF the
ground owned by Mcdonald may also
decide to build at this time for the
reason that it will be more conven-
lent for them to do SO now than later
on. They have the matter under ad-
visement now.
