COAST ARTILLERY
BOWEL AND kILLION FAIL
WILL ENTER THE FIELD
ENGINEERS INSTEAD.

Opportunity for entry into n en-
g~ineering department of the coast ar
tillery was closed Saturday, no more
applications being taken at this time.
Bert Bowel and Harry Killion, who
went to Sioux Falls Friday to take
the examination and enlist in that
service, found themselves unable to
get in. The only applications they
are considering for that branch of
the service now are those of expert
t~elegraphers and a~yiators.
Bert Bowel expressed the inten-
ton yesterday of applying for en-
trance in the engineering corps of
the army for general field work. 1t
is not known whether Harry Killion
will enter for the same service or
not, but his friends think he will. In
this work, instead of being stationed
at a coast post, as in the coast artil-
lery, the engineers will have the lay
ing out of trenches, camps, drainage
systems and roads to do.
The local company took a long
hike yesterday, combining the march
ship of Lieut.. j. +. Wethe. The men
are working out in good shape, it is
said, and are beginning to have some
little inkling of what the discipline
means and will do for them.
Three additional men were enlist
ed into the local company today,
passed the examination and were
sworn in. Roy Garrison, Gordon X.
Gilman and Arthur w. Kukuk are
the men, bringing the total of the
Madison and Lake county enlistment
up to 4S men. While the work goes
slowly, it continues, and when the
time comes, they will undoubtedly
muster to the full strength needed,
Jointly with that part of the company
from Miner county.

DIGGING DONE
BASEMENT EXCAVATIONS DONE
FORMS FOR CEMENT BEING
BUILT AND LENELED.

Work of clearing the excavation
for the basement of the new postol-
flee of earth is completed and much
of the framing of forms for cement
footings is done. Supt. zimmerman
said today that he would be ready
about Thursday TO begin pouring the
cement for the foundations.
The excavation for the basement
is now about seven feet deep. esti-
mating from the present level OF the
ground. and the foundations extend
a foot below this level. The founda-
tions are to be of n part cement,
three parts clean sand and five parts
gravel or crushed rock. Frames OF
blank are made TO shape the base OF
the foundations in the roughly dug
holes and trenches and the coarse
~grouting of cement will be poured
into them. Mr.. Zimmerman thinks
this work will begin Thursday If the
material necessary for it can be OBJ
tanned at that time
The footings are broad. and there
are many OF them in the excavation
Small angles and fussy looking hooks
abound. adding materially 10 the
work. and. incidentally TO the ex-
pense. But every line has a meaning
in the drawings for the work, and
every %protruding buttress has its
purpose and use.
Government superintendent OF
Construction Frank l.. Moore return
ed TO Redfield this morning after an
inspection of the excavations for the
footings of this building. Mr.. Moore
is experimenting the construction OF
a postoffice building at that city, and
expects TO have this II to look after
too. He was sent here to inspect
this one to insure the acceptance OF
the depth to which the work was be
ing carried, and to assure the depart
of its acceptable condition be-
fore going farther. As he is the only
government superintendent detailed
for this state he expects to attend to
this structure, though he will not
know until about the middle of the
week.

MAYORS OFFICE TONIGHT.

Today is the last day of Geo. III.
Waskey's administration of the af-
fairs connected with the mayors Of
flee, completing 10 years OF contin-
uous service. The fact that he was
reelected four times is sufficient en-
dorsement Of his conduct Of the city's
business. And what is more rare in
the annals of men who have held an
office for many consecutive terms. is
the fact that he r~elinquishes the Of
flee voluntarily. absolutely refusing
to enter the contest for this springs

For the time and under the con
ditiOns of the years of his enure Of

the man for the occasion. fitted for
the work in hand. Not considering
the contingencies of election. there
are three factors he considered in re-
linduishing the office. One. that be
has held il beyond the time of rea-
sonable expectation. another that it
has interfered with the conduct Of
his private business. and lastly that
he considers that Mr.. Robertson is
peculiarly fitted to carry on 20 sue
cessful and satisfactory completion
the extensive public Improvements
now being undertaken by the city.
He does not admit that the work in
terfered with his private enterprise.
But any man intimately acquainted
with him in conduct of city affairs
knows that he was always at the
command of the public an any time.
