1t was about this time that the people of ST.
John received a visitor who was much more
unwelcome than the storm This visitor was a
lawyer armed with lot of formida ble-looking
papers He went to the tavern and asked that
the elders Of the village be sent for. They came
The lawyer told them that their title to the land
which they occupied was extremely faulty and
that they must either pay again for the ground
on which their homes stood, or get out. The
villagers made up tn cir minds to fight the mat
ter out, but preliminary court proceedings showed
them that the lawyer had fully as good case
as he claimed. They became disheartened and
when another terrific storm arose, and the black
smiths shop and George Shepard's house went
into the lake they lost all courage They told
che lawyer that the lake seemed to have bet

Henry Mowers, old time hunter was vet
eran OF the residents near the site of the lost
village. Not long after the disappearance in the
lake of the last building Of the Village Of St
John, Mowers took a spade and walked up the
lake shore until he came to the point where
a large part of the site of ST. John had disap-
peared beneath the waves. Movers trip was
taken up at sunrise, a time when he was not
likely to be interrupted in his work. He began

the mud cliff. He worked for two hours and
then quit. He returned to his task every morn

Four rooms, with the front and

describes the house-plan here shown.
The house is "a feet 6 inches wide and
a feet long, without measuring the

able conditions of the market for ma
terial and labor, for about $3.50. A
distinctive feature is the front hall
with its pretty, open, winding stair

hats and coats and three doorways
which give access to three different
rooms-an unusual feature in house
construction. OF course, there are
many long. winding halls that reach
away back and communicate every
where, but they are not economical
OF room. In this case the hall occu-
piles very little space; but the con-
venience and artistic effect are much
greater than in most halls, although
others may be much more pretentious.
It is a great thing, In building, to utilize
space to the best advantage. Measure
ments are arbitrary. In given
ground space, the fact must be rec
ognized that the enlargement of one
room means that the next one must
be smaller. This hall is large enough
for all practical purposes, and it
leaves plenty of room for the parlor.
dining room and sitting room.
The parlor is the smallest of the
three, and rightly so. Parlors are fast
going out OF date. Their principal use
has been for weddings and funerals,
and the way some of them are fur
nished leaves a funeral flavor all the
time. The conventional parlor is the
most uncomfortable room in the
house. The children must be exclud-
ed, and the men folks are afraid of
disarranging the chair tides or get
ting chair an inch or two out Of it's
proper place. The chairs usually are
stiff backed and uncomfortable, and
too nice for a chair, as their principal
occupation is looking prim and unin-

only Here puzzle which his shrewd-
ness could not solve. The coins were silver and
of full weight, and in that day silver was of
sufficient intrinsic value to make it useless for
anyone to make counterfeits out Of the pure
metal Mowers searched for another week, but
found coins. He then showed the re-
suit Of his labor to neghbors and to some people
in the city of Chicago lie said nothing about
where he had discovered the treasure. Shortly
afterward, however, a man offered him 500 for
the secret and though Mowers told him that
the place was probably worked out the man Of
fered the money said he would take the chance,
and the offer was accepted. The purchaser
never found anything and gave up the labor in
disgust.
1t was not long before the story Of the place
where the coins had been picked up became gen.
orally known and the people focked to the bluff
and to the beach marking the site of the lost
town. They dug, searched and prospected with
all the ardor of Klondikers, but the sole result
was gold piece of the value of $3.50, which
boy picked up from the wake of retreating

ers found Ia now in the possession of man
who ran Chicago dime museum. No one
has ever been able to account for the presence
of the money IN the place. The theory that 1t
was left behind by departing resident Of st.
John is safe to be hardly tenable because the
people of that place were not rich enough to
make them careless of valuabes.
