ARMORY SITE
IS PURCHASED
City and County Buy Lots at the
Corner Of Fourth and PIT
kin, Get Building Site.

Mayor Cherrington and Chairman
B. j. Snyder of the county commits
sioners this morning contracted for
the purchase Of a pair of lots at the
southeast corner of Fourth and Pit
kin to be used by the state as a site
for an armory. The price is fixed
at 5000 to be borne equally by the
city and county.
Several years ago when the local
military company was organized 1t
was discovered that an equity in
block S4 where the library and Jail
are located belongs to the state. Tho
original plat Of the town had a strip
OF ground in this block dedicated for
an armory. Tho military board laid
claim to this equity but stated that
no effort would be made to build an
armory on this specific site IL the
city and county which owned the re-
mainder Of the block would purchase
a substitute location elsewhere.
The matter has been investigated
by Major Lee, Major Williams and
Governor Ammons several times and
finally an agreement was made. This
morning the deal was consummated
through w. A. Marsh. The lots are
owned by J. r. Butler of Indianapo-
lis who is state official of Indiana.
They are numbered l and in block
147.
The city and county attorney viii
Immediately make out the necessary
papers and when the military board
approves the site the transfer will be
completed
Governor Ammons stated during
his last visit to the city that the arm
cry would very probably be erected
next year. The strike has sfiectu-
ally blasted the hopes Of erecting
such building this year When
completed the structure, plans for
which have already been drawn, will
cost about $4,000.
