GOES THE TO OF ROOKERIES The Old Herald Building Tomorrow Jecomeu a Memory of the Past , THE USES TO WHICH IT HAD BEEN PUT. How It Srvcd ns Headquarters for tlic/Yriny nnrt tlio Callnnt Wlw Occupied , its Sto ried. Halls. WorJnvlll bo commenced tomorrow morn ing upon the demolition of a building that was at one tiuio the architectural pride of Oinuhn , 'In'onty-tuo years ago Mr. .Tolin AVithncll , then a joung man , began work on tlio erec tion of a largo boarding house on the south west corner of Hnmcynnd Fifteenth streets. Tlio original plan of tlio structure- contemplated a three story building 00x120 feet , with , nt that tlmo , modern hnprovo- iiionts. Mr. Withnolllmd purchased the lot from Dr , Moncll for $ J,000 , , and bis ei.t'erprlso In putting up such a splendid building i\as n. subject of unlimited fu\oruble comment. The headquarters of the department of the Platteliad been established la Omaha a few years Iteforo-thls , v ns in 1SOS and occupied vcty oullutiry quartos. U'ho ofilcors wanted tlio now building for their lioiidqtmrtcrs , and , through thocfl'oits of General 0. C. Augur , tlio department commander , an offer was rmdo to MrV ithnell by which the govern ment agreed to become htstoiinat for a term often jours , If he would build an uihlltbunl story tothostruitura To this Mr. WUlinoll agreed , and the building vas completed near ly us it now stands.

Ihon there was Wajor Thornbcrirwho was sur- pilsed nnd killed by tlio Indium in Colomdo and was brought homo hcio forburlnl. It was in the old building tlutCoIouolICaut/e. now buying some trouble vlth General UiooUo , was court-martialed for BOKO minor offense and was slightly puuislied. 'Iho Iwud- quiirtcrs wcro in this building-when the n. AM. strike wai on nnd Captain John S. AVoods. who was chief Janitor , distinguished himself by barricading the building so that tbe stilUors could not get In and destroy the regular uriny. In 15S2 tbo department headquarters were unused to Port Omaha , under an order of the war department , imU the building was AUCII ted. On September , Ib78 , a short tlmo after the building had been vacated by tlio govern ment , occurred the memorable tire which de- stroytd tlio Grand Central hotel , and in vblchwoio lost the liven of Iho Omuha firo- men. The Grand Central 1ml robbed the Wlthnell building of muih of its glory , but with Its destruUioa the Withnoll building was pat to the use for which iUvasoriuinallv built. built.Wlillo Wlillo the ( Ire was still burning on the ruins of the Grand Central , Dr. Geoigo L.

As a hotel and head- luurters for tbo army the polish had been tnocked oft the structure. The plastering vas crocked and the paper h.id lost Its rifilnal brilliancy. Other good builuitiKS md been erected , too , and the once finnous ilock had lost much of its prestige among ho substantial building enterprises. Then , oo , Mr. Withnoll uns not alilo to huild mnp- illlccnt blochs and pay spot for tliem la lioso days as ho is now , and this enterprise , vith others bo had iu hand , wcro making Innndui ; demands of lihn that caused him omo worry.
