The Mitchell capital. (Mitchell, Dakota [S.D.]) 1879-1918, 1914-07-23
S. D. Build
sin5sat San Francisco
Exposition.
DESIGN is UNIQUE
Would Be Different: Than
Ordinary stuceo State
Buildings.

Mlttlells world-famous Corn Pal
ace, decorated in all the colors of the
maize and autumn grasses, may be
designed in replica for the South Da-
kota state building for the Panama
Pacific exposition at San Francisco
in 1915.
With the naming of the commits
sion by Gov. Frank M. Byrne yester-
day afternoon, the movement was
launched to ascertain the possibility
OF erecting a suitable state building
at the San Francisco fair. AT It's sec
sion, the legislature refused to make
appropriation nor for a state building
and it is hoped that the money may
be raised by voluntary contributions
to defray the project.
In each of South Dakota's neigh
boring states, Iowa and Minnesota,
Nebraska, North Dakota and Mon
tana, funds have been appropriated
or raised to erect suitable state build
ings at San Francisco. In Montana,
where the state legislature refused
to#,act, 10000 souvenirs were sold
for n dollar each. and it is planned
to sell 10000 more to raise suffic-
'ient funds.
Commercial Club Interested.
The members of the commission
appointed by Gov. Byrne, who are
w. G. Cook. Of Sioux Falls. j.. w.
Campbell, OF Huron. Roswell Bottum,
OF Aberdeen, w. G. Lusk, of Yank-
ton. Harry Howard of Lead and w.
II. Ronald, OF Mitchell, will meet
in The near future and go oger the
situation. 1t is believed that the
praiect will be endorsed and some
scheme of raising the money evolved.
The commercial clnbs OF the state
probably will take an active part in.
arranging for the building. The adj
veg Using to be gained from the
structure will make it a subject for
tha;r endeavors, inasmuch as the
principal industries. of the common
wealth VIII be exhibited and its di.
vers:fed commercial interests given
a foremost place.
Corn Palace Distinction.
In view of the fact that most of the
| state buildings will be erected with
stucco ~eater:ors, of more or less con
venticnal design, it is believed that
the Corn Palace idea wiqld. be dis
ti1nncStffve ana would be welcomed BIZ
the people Of South Dakota. 1t
would be something entirely differ
ent than that offered by, any other
state and also&wouid typify$ thesagri-
culture preeminence OF South Da-
kota.
1t is believed that the Mitchell
Corn Palace could be executed in
replica at San Francisco for the cost
of 100000 to $4,000. The Corn and
grasses would be raised in the state,
rthem shipped to California and then
the building erected and decorated
under the supervision of the men in
|scharge of this work in Mitchell-Dr.
F. d. ellis, John Michels and Will
liam Kearney. The yery uniqueness
OF the design would allow a much
smaller and less expensive building
to attract the attention and advertis-
ing of one of the most costly struct-
ures.
L. j. Morgans, secretary of the
Mitchell Commercial club already
has written to the officials of the San
Francisco exposition to ascertain IL
a building like the CornsPalace would
be permitted on the exposition

PULL Another
Drowning victim
FROM THE river

Noticing an object floating in the
Christiana river this morning, Will
liam Murphy, bridgetender at Market
street bridge, decided to watch It
closely and as it drew near the bridge
he saw that it was the body of a dead
colored man. Murphy got his boat
hook and caught the body as it
passed under the bridge and brought
IL to the shore, where he secured it
with a rope and telephoned to Cor
oner Spring.
Mr. Murphy did not make any exam
ination of the body, except to notice
that the man wore shoes. He did
this to make sure that the corpse was
not that of the man who fell from a
barge of the Charles Warner Com
pany some time ago and was drowned
The man who was drowned off the
barge wore rubber boots.
Mr.. Murphy said he believed the
body had been in the water and was
stirred up by the pilot boat Philadel-
phia, which he had just let through
the draw. Before letting the boat
through Mr.. Murphy looked up aud
down the river, but saw nothing. AS
soon as the vessel passed he saw the
object in the water
The body was removed to the
morgue and Coroner Spring made ar
rangements to have il inferred this

It Is the idea Of the board to have
the annex so constructed that a pas
sageway for pedestrians may be al
lowed under the building. The board
opposes the opening Of the street for
vehicle traffic. as such a plan would
prevent the building Of the annex
Mr. Baynard explained that the pas
sageway beneath the annex would be
lighted and that the floor of the an
mex would be 20 feet above the side
walk The plan was satisfactory to
