III. Stevens Building Improvements.


The recent tire and subsequent panlcs az the
the public schools to thoroughly examine into
the needs of the building and to urgently recon-
mend to the Commissioners such changes as, iu
their opinion, were necessary in order to permit
the safe and speedy egress Of the large number
OF children in attendance. This Recommendation
was approved, and for two weeks past carpenters
have been busily engaged making the desired
improvements.
II tlec, inter- Ct the building two s.airways,
four feet six inches wide, with continuous rail
and two quarter flights, have been erected, the
whole supported by eight iron braces fastened to
each girder, as explained in the appended COM
munication.
The contract for this work was awarded to
Walter Jackson, carpenter and builder, and was
done under the immediate supervision Of the
committee on property-Messrs. E. Champlin AMI
Jno. H. Brooks. Much praise is due Mr.. Jack
son for the general excellence OF the work and
the speed with which It was accomplished. He
