LEWIS CUTLER ~—FUNERAL DIRECTOR— e % Sehenter, | the present of the bul REBUILDING DEAF SCHOOL Good Progress Being Made at the Oonstrno- tion of Temporary Buildings. WILL BE READY WHEN FALL TERM OPENS Rothert Superintendent on the Gro Keeping Everything Moving. Out at the Towa School for the Deal, l; short distance south of the city, the tem- porary bulldings authorized by the state executive council to take the place for ngs recently de- stroyed by fire are being constructed with 1l rapidity comsistent with good results and Superintendent Rothert and his corps of tants are happy In the - thought that when the time for the opening of the new school year arrives they will be able to take care of the large number of puplls always seeking admission to this institution. The dlsaster to the school by the fire was of course considerable, but by reason of the prompt action of all par- ties bearing responsibility for the school success the institution will be able to re- sume at the opening of the new school year the first of October much as if noth- ing had Rappened, The construction of the two main build- ings is being pushed just now. Ome of these is a two-story frame structure de- it 18 50x105 north of the gymoasium. The bullding will contain twenty recitation rooms and ample hallways. This building will have a good deal of permanency in its character and will be useftl for many year The work on It is now so far advanced that it will be turned over to' the plasterers within couple of weeks. 4 Good progress has also been made on the work of repairing the chapel and din- Ing room wing of the old main bullding, which was not entirely destroyed by fire. ‘This wing of the old bullding is belug con- verted into a two-story briek buflding, 50x 60 feet. The lower floor will be used as a dining hall and the second floor as living quarters for the teachers and officers of the Institution. Over the kitchen and laun- dry of this bullding have been fitted up living rooms for Superintendent Rothert and family. Other work about the institution Is going on rapidly and Superintendent Rothert is remaining at hand all the time, having foregone the pleasure of a vacation in order that he might personally oversee the work. It will of course be some time before the | tnstitution has the excellent quarters and equipment that it had before the fire, but until the legislature meets and takes the necessary action to provide a restoration of the permanent buildings the school 18 going to be so housed that it will get along very nicely indeed.

The members of the general committee having in charge the arrangements.for the coming reunion in this city of the National Soclety of the Army' of the Philippines and all others interested were made happy late yesterday afternoon when Congressman ‘Walter I. Smith, chairman of the com- mittee on speakers, received a telegram from Major General Jacob Smith, stating that he would be here at the reunion and In compliance with the request of the com- mittes would speak at the big meeting on the evening of the 13th of August. General Smith has just landed at San Fran from the Philippines. He is one .of the most widely known and talked about figures in connection with the whole Philippine matter and the promoters of the reunion feel that they have fn him & great draw- ing card. As ‘Is well known by even the school children of the land General Smith is the officer who issued the famous “kill and burn" order to Major Littiéton T. W.- Wi ler In connection with the latter's cam- paign in the province of Samar. For this bé was court-martialed and later, on the president’s review of the case, the general was retired from active service in the army. The order given by General Smith to Major Waller was the subject of more serious debate In congress in connection with the Philippine civil government legis- lation /than any other incident snd’ some of the anti-administration- sehators gave to General Smith the sobriquet of ‘“Hell- Roaring Jak In view of this extraor- dinary position occupled by General Smith in the Philippine matter the announcement of his coming to the reunion will arouse more Interest than any other feature of the gathering ‘so far secured. " It ‘is anticl- pated that If he says enything at all it will be something interesting and the peo- ple want to eee and hear him, Dr. Donald Macrae, president of the Towa Boclety of the Army of the Philip. plnes, who is working hard for the success of the reunion, addressed a letter to Gov- ernor Cummine yesterday requesting that the battalion of the National Guard prom- ised by the governor for the occasion be sent with' forty rounds of smmunition for use in the sham battle. If this ammunition cannot be secured In this way the com- mittee may have some trouble in getting it from other sources. To begia with it is expensive—3$27 per 1,000 rounds—and early delivery upon order is mot certain. Dr. Macrae also asked the governor to crder that the Fifty-first Iowa Regimental band be ordered to attend the encampment with the battalion of militiamen. The committee baving in charge the finance for the reunion reports good prog- Tess in ralsing funds, It is estimated that it will require about $2,600 to do the hand. some thing and the business men of the city are golng to see that there is no shortage. 1o | CHILD DROWNS IN THE SIOUX Seven-Year-Old Boy Meets Death at Stoux City, Though Brother Tries Hard to Save Him, SIOUX CITY, Ia., Aug. 1.—(Special Tele- gram.)-Charles Dietschy, & 7-year-old wen of August Dietschy, was drowned the Sloux river here today In the presence of several small companions.
