The *%ouncement in the Bek that a “Thool is to be erected on the lot now oceupted by the high school attracted pretty considerable attention, many fear- ing that the building would be placed on the me line, and face east, with the Nigh school building, thus destroying the nn]m ing appearance of that structure. Mr. Long, of the school board, however, told a BEE veporter that there was no ground for alarm. The new building will be erccted in the rear of the high school and face Twenty-second street, It will therefore be entirely ohscured on the cast. It will be heated by the same means which are now used to” warm the high school. Mr, Long suggested that it would be advisable to erect the building on the corner of Dodge and Twenty-sce- ond streets, so that, when another school is required in that Vicinity, which will be the case before many year could be placed at_the opposite Davenport and Twenty-second thus giving the place, with th school, & colleginte and symmetric pearanc But the bo desired to let the Igh school monopolize the site High A Baptist U “The Baptists of some montis | ersity of le 30th of Novembe have been for ring to found a nthis state.
