It was learned Thursday that the trlbea
had decided to build a ala-story building,
th«* equal. If not superior, to any a**cret
r building In the Mouth. Chief of
Hoc*
stated that the building will cost nUiut f60..
000, and will probably hare a swimming
pool and an auditorium ronuected with If.
The lied Men purehaaeU the present
building four years ago for the sum of

offered three times that amount for the
property. The lot has n frontage of
