CONTRACTORS IN CITY AND
STATE, SEVERAL NEW SCHOOL,
HOUSES AND A LARGE NUMBER
OF ELEVATORS TO BE BUILT,

There isn't anything much in

being rapidly completed, and the

Out in the state there are some
building enterprises. The new build
ing for the Security State bank at
Brantford is well under way, the *
cavations for the same having been
completed. Ed N. Leiby is erecting a
large addition to his store room at FL
lendale.
In the way of public buildings there
is a good deal going on in various
places. Hope is laying the plans to
have a new city hall and Haxby &
Gillespie of this city are the archi-
tects. McHenry is also asking for
bids for a city hall, and New Rock
ford is seeking bids for a lightning
system for the new courthouse.
The old city hall in Grand Forks has
been bought by George Thornon and
will soon be transformed into a garage.
Down at Jamestown bids are being

electric lights, and at Larimore the
town council is talking seriously Of es-
tablishing a white way.
At Neche the Great Northern is
making preparations for making great
improvements in the yards and sta

many elevators to be erected in the
state yet this fall. C.. T. Wynkop is
organizing a company to erect one at
Bismarck; a farmers elevator is to
be erected at Hansboro and a farmers
elevator is to be built at Mott; and an

VAS AT THROTTLE
ON FIRST TRAIN
ENGINEER TIM BRADY OF BRAIN
ERD, A VISITOR, PULLED FIRST
REGULAR PASSENGER TRAIN
INTO MooRHEAD ON N. p, AND
PAT KENNEDY a PASSENGER.

Tim Brady of Brainerd. Mimi, was
In the city yesterday and was being
shown about the city by his friend,
z. ". Kennedy, who is summering in
the city.
Mr.. Brady has the distinction Of
pulling the first regular passenger
train from the east into Moorhead.
This was in 1872. and he is still doing
duty on the Northern Pacific, having
a run between Brainerd and Minneap-
oils.
Times have greatly changed since
those days." said Mr.. Brady to The
Forum, and this city surely has made
wonderful strides forward. You can
imagine just about how big Fargo was
IN those days. 1t was nothing but q
hamlet and a small one at that. /
have been pulling at the throttle ever
since and feel a though l was good
for a number Of years more. The N. p.
like the entire country has grown to
a wonderful extent since those days,
and when / look back at the great
changes that time has brought about
1t seems more like a miracle than any
thing else. / am enjoying my visit
to the city very much and am meeting
many of my old time friends here. I
don't get a vacation off the road very
often and when l do / like to take a
run up here and see my friends and
witness the changes that are always
most pronounced in this city,"
A remarkable thing in connection
with MI. Brady's visit here If the fact
that Mr.. Kennedy came into Moorhead
and Fargo on the first regular passeng-
er train on the line, and as stated be-
fore this train was pulled by Mr..
Brady.

REVIEWED ~ EDITOR.


The dramatic season just ended, -
said the Winesap County Weekly Vim
sdicator, was the most successful in
the history OF Plunkville, both from
an artistic and financial point Of
view.
Early In October the season was
ushered in with the Greater Barn
stormers' Minstrels, with Is perform
ers in high top slickems and beautiful
pink busters, who played the most
ravtshing circus marches in the court
house yard. At the evening perform
ance many Of the. latest melodies were
rendered, including After the Ball.

In November a hypnotist and en-
tertainer called Prof. X. SvengaN,' oc-
cupied the boards at the opera house.
Professor Syengah put Sam Tucker,
the timer, into a trance, and made
him stand on his head in the corner
and sing the 'Doxology.' After the per-
Torrance Sam missed a five-dollar bill,
but he allowed the fun was worth the
money.

Shucks, who hasn't cried since his
wife ran away with the leader of the
