Dundy of Omaha, who came to New York last fall with more brains, dash, | pluck and enterprise than cash, and are| now closing up the season with $1,500,000 | profits and with more millions in sight | for successive seasons. John D. Rocke feller, too, has taken a peep at the plans | of the young wizards.of the West and his | millions are now back of them and there | is no limit Frederick 8.

Reports from the pricipals of the several bulldings show | Freight Train in Diteh. ( ¢ \ that nearly all the schools in the city are taxed to their capacity and several of them are Inconveniently erowded. To relieve this | congestion the board will be called upon to take some action In the near future. Both the Avenue B and Second avenue schools are overcrowded and an addition will have to be bullt next spring to one of those bulldings. Which one has not yet been decied upon, but in all probability it will be at the Avenue B school. A four- room addition will be necessary and If It is | decided to bulld it at the Avenue B school, 1t 18 likely that an old wing contalning two rooms will be torn down and A new &ix- room addition erected. The wing contain- ing two rooms at the Avenue B school was erected on the ground without any base- ment and the rooms are demp. To tear down this wing and erect a new addition | of six rooms it is estimated would entail | an expenditure of about $15,000. Members | of the board state, however, that no matter what tho cost the congestion on the Avenue | B and Second avenus schools will have to be relleved as soon as possible. May Use Old High School. The advisability of using the old High school bullding as a ward scheol again will come up for discussion at tonight's meeting of the board. It is believed that at a cost of about $10,000 the bullding, which although erected more than twenty years ago, is still in first class condition so far the walls and foundation are concerned, could be low- ered and remodelled inside. It is belleved | the grounds could be graded down and the buflding lowered, provided with new floors 4 generally repaired Inside so as to make 1t available for a ward school. To construct a new four-room bullding In that dlstrict it 1s estimated would cost at least $12,000. By using the old High school bullding as a grade school ain the congestion at the Bloomer, Washington avenue, Third street and Plerce street schools could be relleved in the most satisfactory manner. In the event of the old High school bullding being used as a ward school the boundaries of the other four schools named would be changed. Bince the opening of the school year this month the board has received about seventy applications for transfer of puplls to schools outside the district in which they reside. ¥or instance, parents of puplls Ity ingom Fifth avenue and within the bown~ darles of the Bighth avenue school have applied to have them transterred to the Washington avenue and Bloomer schools. Puplls attcnding the Third street school have applied to e transferred to the Bloomer school, and so on throughout the entire city. Heretofore the board has en- deavored to comply with such requests, but this year, owing to the congested condition prevalling in almost every bullding, all re- quests have been denfed. Never Mind the Wat The North Eighth street school will be reopened this morning, although the water is stifl in the basement. In the event of @ sudden cold snap the committes on build- ings s of the opinion that by constant pumping the water can be kept below the level of the bellers so that the building ean be heated If necessary. It is estimated that 1t will take at least two weeks to get all the water out of the basement of this bulld- \ng. Constant pumping during the last few days at the other schools in the flooded districts has had its effect and the com- ittee stated yesterday that the heating plant could be operated in all the buildings if required. The committee has received word that danger of shortage of coal need not be feared now as the contractor has re- celved word that eight cars at least will be recelved here today or Tuesday for the schools. Secretary Ross, while not having been able owing to the floed conditions prevail- ing In parts of the city to complete the hool census, will, at the meeting this vening, make a preliminary report. The btoard this evening will appoint a seoretary for the ensuilng year, and Secretary Ross will undoubtedly be reappointed, there be- ing no other applicant for the position in the fleld. Colored T n Ja Three members of the Al Bashor OM | Plantation company spent Sunday behind the bars at the city jall. The company, the members of which are colored, arrived at the Union Paclfic transfer shortly be- fore midnight Saturday. The three ar- Tested are Carrie Smith, Gertle Holty and Robert Gllmore. Gertlo and Carrie have both been making §00-g00 eyes at Bob, and Gertie seemed to have won out for the time being. When the company reached the transfer Bob handed Gertle his mandolin to hold for hm while he hunted a refreshment coun- ter. Carrie objected to Bob thus showing favoritism to Gertle and a mixup between the dusky females followed. Gertle struck Carrie over the head with Bob's mandelin, apparently 4id not hurt Carrie any. jumped into the game to rescue the re- mains of his mandolin, when Special Officer Guilfoyle arrested the trio and called the patrol wagon.
