went to Sawyer and finding his men
at confectionery store he placed the
two under arrest, and turned one pris-

tance when Larson bethought him
self that he would need an overcoat,
and asked the marshal to take him
over to his shack so he could get his
coat. This the marshal most oblig-
ingly did, but when Larson entered
the house he grabbed a shot gun and
turning upon the marshal threatened
to blow him to Kingdom come "if he
didn't get to h out of here" Shir-

his domicile and with his weapon over
his shoulder was pacing the streets
and uttering most terrible threats and

charge of Larson, after a friend had
persuaded him to lay aside his shoot

was brot to the city and yesterday
his hearing was held before Judge

adjourned to Friday.

LARGE BUILDING
Plan Being Considered to Build Large
Church and Office Building
Combined.

The Baptists of the city are con-
templating quite seriously the propo-
sition of erecting a large office build
ing on the valuable site now occupied
by the church and have taken the mat
ter up with a we'll known architect,
who will draft plans in the near fu-
ture. A business meeting was held
Monday evening but nothing definite
has been done. The plan now under
consideration calls for a large block
cvering the lot, 75x14O feet, several
stories high, the first floor being used
for church purposes and the upper
floors for offices.
The church is located very close in
and the site is considered very valu-
able.

$4,000 FIRE DESTROYED
NUMBER OF AUTOMOBILES

The Britton garage on Valley street
burned at an early hour Tuesday
morning. The cause Of the fire is I'M
known, as the building was used for
storage purposes only and no one had
been near the building for several
days. About dozen secondhand cars
were stored in the building and in the
basement were two gas tractors and
four automobiles, an Oldsmobile, a
Fostoria and two Oakland cars, be-
longing to the Minot Motor Sales Co.,
all brand new cars in storage here,
and the loss on these will be almost
their full value. The building burned
rapidly as the floors were oil-soaked
