BOARD To DISCUSS
SCHOOL SITE DEAL
Works Commissioners to Meet
on Sale of Factory
I Streer - 49,

A special meeting of the Board Oh
Work will be held on Monday morn
ing to complete final arrangements for
the sale of the old Factory street
stable property to the Board of Edu-
cation. The latter board last night
offered the commissioners $4,000 for
the site, for which the commissioners
originally asked $4,000. 1t is thought
a compromise will be effected and the
property will change hands for a con-
sideratiov. of 100000.
Copp,' -<,=sioners Ryan and Bier.
tuempfei, with President Kroner, OF
the Board of Works, appeared peIore
the Board of Education and urged the
sale of the stable site, which is at
Factory and Eighth streets.
DR.. Kramer pointed out that the
land was city property and said the
two boards should get together for
the benefit of the city in general. He
admitted the Board of Education was
the only immediate bidder on the tie
and said that a few thousand dollars
either way should not stand In the
way of completing the sale. He said
the commissioners were wiling to
make q few concessions, if the board
would meet them halfway. He
added the object of the Board OF
Works was to obtain enough money
from the sale of the stable s te to
build new stables. He explained that
neutral appraisers had fixed the value
of the property at $4,000.
$4,000 offered.
Charles p. Taylor, pres dent of the
Board of Education, with Commits
sioners McCabe and Belfato, went
over the matter with the Board OF
Works commissioners, and finally an
nounced an offer of $685. for the
site. Mr. Taylor was persistent in
saying not more than $50,000 should
be expended. He said site at Shelf
field and D'Auria streets could be OBJ
tanned much cheaper. The other two
members, however, agreed on $3.50
and il is understood will pay as high
as 100000 to settle the matter.
Other school sites were discussed,
and committee was appointed to
look over sites in the Weequahic,
Thirteenth avenue and Newton street
school districts.
The stables are located in the Fif-
teenth ward. The residents have
made repeated complaints about
maintaining stables in such a rapidly
growing section. No market for the
property could be found until it be-
came known that the Board of Edu-

ton in the Seventh Avenue School,

entered into NEGOTIATIONS for tho
transfer of the property.
Taylor Opposes Purchase.
President Taylor has been opposed
to the purchase by the Board of Edu-
cation of the stable site unless the
price is greatly reduced. He points
out that the appraisal value of the
property is affected by the buildings
which are now on it. These, he said.
are of no value to the school board,
as the old material could not be
used in building a school. He was in
favor of purchasing a nearby site
which contained dilapidated build
ings of little or no value. The fact
that the stable site is city property
has influenced Mr.. Taylor more than
anything else to consider the pur-
chasing of the land. it, isnsaid.

Probably one of the thriftiest farm
ers in the state of North Dakota is
John Chl.stianson Of New Salem. In
1883 Mr.. Christianson came to Morton
county and filed on the homestead
where he now lives. He was SO poor
he hardly had enough to eat. He
broke up the first land in that com
munity, built a shack and got busy.
Latter as he gained q foothold he took
cottonwood trees, sawed them into
humber and erected a comfortable
home. This suftlced for a number OF
years. Finally through his diligence
Mr.. Christensen felt he deserved a
better home and he finally erected n
Of the best residences in Morton coun-
ty. He has, besides this, many barns,
machinery sheds, dairy house, and
other conveniences which 60 TO make
I'D one Of the most complete farms in
the west.
Not only is Mr.. Christensen a sue

T~elerhoning from some point on a
