the Gross Construction company,
contractors for the Cameron county
court house and Jail buildings, stated

cient to care for the present needs

When the building is complied, it
will have cost about 5000
Good progress is being made in
the erection Of the court house. The
concrete flooring for the first floor
is about completed, and the brick
walls are looming up rapidly. Mr..
Schaefer said that if he could have
received material fast enough dur
ing the past two months, he would
now be working on the roof.
The court house, from present in
dications, is to be a beautiful struc-
ture, architecturally. 1t will be
three stories high and will have four
entrances, one on each of the four
streets bounding the block Work
is already underway on the porticoes
for the entrances.

come this novel difficulty by placing
three companies In the field at the open
ing Of the pending quarter.

far.
The programme in charge OF Mrs.
Grace Wilkinson, OF Company A, was
preceded with an address by Grand Supt

Initiates Of the evening upon their re-
spective gains. Among the original
papers read which received marked

plication, and its meaning as used by
