ADDITION TO REAR OF WAUREGAN HOUSE. Handsome New Grill Room for Men Will Replace Two Small Ones—Five Rooms for Displaying Samples. The Parker-Davenport company is to build_a $6,000 addition to their hotel, the Wauregan house, in this city, the contract for which werk having been 12t on Monday morning, and it will be started at once. The addition will be at the back of the hotel. It will be 25x68 and of brick, three storles in height. The building will be 25x18 in the basement, which section runs up three stories high, but on the floor corre- sponding to the street level the agdi- tion will be much longer and a portion of this will be supported on spiling. In the basement the room will be used| for the storage of coal. On the main floor the two present rooms of the men’s cafe will be thrown together and the addition will permit the enlarging of the grill to. 25x50, making a hand- some new department of the hotel. There will also be ‘two small private dining rooms on that floor 12x14 in size. Another important improvement will be the addition of three new sam- ple rooms for the display of goeds Ly drummers, which will make five in ail at the hotel. This will bring them on the main floor and obviate the neces- sity of carrying the heavy trunks to the second floor. On the top floor of the addition the room will be used for the keeping of provisions. The grill room will be finished with a rathskeller effect with a wainscotting about six feet high, red tile floor and leaded glass windows. There: will be wood beams and cornices in the ceiling and the room will be lighted by elec- tricity. Tt will be dome in chestrut and stained, it is thought, a silver gray. There will be five nooks in the grill with settle effect and stationary tables between. The entrance to the grill will be in the center of the roori and when completed it will be one of the handsomest in the state. This_work is the forerunner of more extensive changes on the main floor which it is probable will be taken up next spring. In this .change the re- building of the lobby and Broadws. entrance and office section is contem- plate: WEDDING. b st e ‘Weiman—Woods.

PRICE 10 CENTS SHITH'S 1 STORE Franklin Square, Norfiicl. ; Taxpayers Vote to Acting upon the call for a special meeting the Bridge school district in the schoolhouse on Mon ven- ing, the legal voters of the district di- rected and authorized some alterations in the building, which it is expected will relieve a congested condition Which has-existed at,the schoolhouse. The meeting. was largely attended, all the seats in the room being taken and some of those present stood, while a fringe of small boys hned the room and occupied the entry, needing occa- sional reminders from the chairman that they musc keep still or they would -be put out. - C. 8. S8torms Chairman. Committeeman Henry E. Davis ecall- ed the meeting to order shortly after 8 o'clock and asked for nominations for chairman. Charles 8. Storms was elected nrd took the chair, and Clerk Arthur M. Cobleigh read the warning, .which stated that the special meeting was called to relieve the congestion at the school building and to transact any other business relating to the district. In answer to a house, Principal Irving E. Elmer and Committeeman Davis furnished figures, stating that 116 had been the average attendance, and by rooms from the highest grade down it had been 10, 21. 20, 27, 25 and 22. 5 No Need of New Site. Daniel Lynch took the floor and spoke of a mew schoolhouse meaning from $25,000 to 30,000 to the district, while from $5,000 to $6,000 in repairs would put it in modern shape there was no need of buying a new site, Committeeman Davis was asked to explain what the suggestion was that was to be offered, and he said that the congestion had ‘been in the primary de- partment, where there had heen so many children that they had not all been able to attend two sessions a day. He felt the board of education had been fair with the districtand the plan which had Leen arrived at was to make a recitation room where the primary department has been. Mr. Davis claimed that it was taking eleven years to graduate the children from this =chogl, where it ought to take only nine. Not Asking for New Building. Acting School Visitor Frank H. Foss was present, and upon a suggestion ‘from Principal Eimer he addressed the meeting, making a clear statement of the way the town school boardl ooked upon conditions at the school. He saia it was_their purpose to rearrange the grades, putting three grades in the sen~ ior room, with two teachers for them, and it was the cheapest thing to do to build a covered stairway from the sen- ior reom down to the primary room. This would then be Principal Elmer's recitation room, and . the primary would be moved into the room in Bil~ lings™ hall. This would enable the children to get through as they did in other districts and would enable all the young children to come to school at the same time. ayers Relieve the Con;enian;Megfiqg ted an ngr ‘With Many Interesting Incidents,. uestion from the, and | ix - To a question from James A. Hiscox, Acting School thought such an arrangement ought to be good for quite a while, and there was considerable applause when he said that-the board was not asking for a new school building, and that there was plenty of seating room in the district’s building, only it was not divided up right. Pringipal Elmer Expl . To furthei guestions, Principal Ei mer said that there were 34 seats in 24 children in the room next year in three grades, with :Miss Plunkett in charge. lroom as a room for seating grades, but not for recitations, so that the extra recitation room would be needed. r would be grades 5 and 6, with about 20 children, in the front room on.the first floor grades 3 and 4, with 23 childrep, and in the two lower rooms about 50 children. through the fitst grade in one year, in- stead of three as at present. Another advantage would be that it would put in both huildings. with no stairs to climb. Principal Elmer also drew ap- plause when he said it was his endeav- ] or to have just as good a school as any tin town, and a little better if possi- ble. ; In reply 4o an inqui Committee~ man Davis stated that $150 was the lh(‘hesl estimate made by any con- “tractor for thee changes proposed, and Principal Blmer stated that there had been two other plans talked over, one costing about $800 and the other about $300. Daniel Lynch was applauded when he offered to do the job for the district for $150, satisfactorily. Not to Exceed $150~ After some further discussion, on motion of Jame: ‘W. Blackburn the adoption of the proposed plan was vot- ed, with an amendment by Mr. Higcox that the amount to be expended shall not exceed $150. It was passed unan- inmously by a viva voce vote. Committeeman Davis then asked in- structions as to whether hegcould ex- pend the sum of $150 which he had on hand for this work, as the last annual meeting of the district had directed him to pay this off on the district's in- debtedness. No Tax Laid. | Mr. Hiseox moved the laying of a | half mill tax to cover this expendi. ture. . Considerable discussion ensued over whether the meeting could legal- ly lay a tax and Chairman Storms in- quired of the acting school visitor, who said he thought not. While the offi- cials ‘were looking the matter up one or two men tried to talk, and there were frequent shouts of “Sit down” and “Question?" until James M. Xoung took the floor and ended the matter by advising that the committeg was com- petent to see the thing through. Mr. Hiscox withdrew his motion to lay a o'clock. NOTICES TO OWNERS HAVING HOT WATER BOILERS. Water Department Advises That Vent Be Placed on ‘System to Prevent Trouble. Notices have been received by about 300 property owners in the city from the board of water commissioners, through Supt. J. J. Corkery, concern- ing the placing of vents on their ot water systems. This is to warn the people against accident which is liable to result by overheating the water. The notices are as follows: This department desires to remind you that whenever a water meter is i:1- stalled for a domestic service a checi valva is attached to the service to pre- vent hot water from passing back through the pipe and coming in con- tact with the rubber in the meter. Hot water would destroy the rubber or so injure it as to materially lessen its efficacy, and the meter would thus ve- come practically useless. It i assumed that you have placed a vent upon the hot water system upon vour premises so that extra water pressure resulting fromn a very hot firs may find relief; if you have not doue so, we advise you to take this pre- caution against possible accident, as the water which goes into your prem- ises cannot flow back past the valve, which is intended to check.its retura to_the meter. While there are about 650 meters in the city, there are but ahout 300 plac where the meters are installed “whe: there are hot water boilers.
