We took look through the new three
story brick hotel just erected by w. B.
Luther, who has made a hne reputation
here as a landlord. 1t stands on the
southwest corner Of Third avenue and
Merchant street, diagonsIly across from
the Santa Fe depot. It is q handsome
building with Mansard roof. We neg
lected to get the size or cost. The man
entrance Is on the Merchants street front.
There is g side entrance to the ONCE from
Third avenue. A nice cozy porch orna-
ments the Merchants street front. The
hall is in the center, and from 1t q stair
way leads to the second story. To the
right from the entrance is the office
which is 14x2S feet. On the left are two
parlOrs connected by folding doors
b tck OF these on the ffrsr floor Is q Iarg.
and well lighted and we'll ventilated din
ing room, 2Ox36. Still back Of this is the
Kitchen, pastry room, pantry, etc. From
the dining room a hall leads to the other
building which has been occupied as
! esidence. The upper floor is entirely
devoted to sleeping rooms. There are 25
OF these on this hoor and the one above,
and they are well arranged for comfort
and convenience. Many Of them are in
suits fer families, and have already been
engaged. The third ,or is similarly ar.
ranged 10 the second. and has q large res

which will De in q few days, 1t will be
one OF the best hotels in Southern Kan

Death Of NIrs. Holmss

Mrs Jennie, wife Of Van R. Holmes,
Esq OF this city, died at her residence.
Friday last, March Sth, after an illness of
several weeks. She was aged about So
years.
Mrs. Holmes was the daughter Of Geo.
F. Grove, and had lived here and at To
peks tor about twenty years. She was
known here 10 the early days as = bright,
Intelligent, and pure-iived young lady, OF
kind disposition, doing all the good she
could to those about her. Her mature
years were characterized by the same
good and noble traits, and she was be-
loved by all who knew her. She was a
blessing to parents, br ptheIs, sisters, hus-
band, children and friends. Those who
knew her best will miss her most The
last time We met her she had called at the
house of friend on an errand of mercy.
Her life was one of gentleness and faith
fulness. Like the crushed flower giving
out its fragrance,so her life here scattered
good influences that live after her. TIC
that bereaved husband and the little ones
left behind; to the relatives who dotted
on her, the public sympathy is extended
In this hour when all seems dark and un-
forbiding.

Now the talk in the Board Of Educa-
ton Is about . new sch DOL building. 1t
seems that one is absolutely necessary.
The present buildings are entirely mad
equate, and for some years the renting Of
such buildings as could be had, has been
resorted to. We understand there is q
question As TO whether . small ward
building had better be erected, or q large
central one. We do not know enough
about the matter to haZ ard even an opin-
Ion. In the erection Of our present build.
ings some mistakes were made because
we did not comprehend the needs Of our
schools. We advise that there shall not
be too much haste IN this matter. We
might as well put up q good building
with capacity for the future while we
are at it. But while we say this we
think economy must not be lost sight Of
1t would be good thing for the Board to
let the public know, In some way, what
they propose to do, before anything is set
tied on definitely. AS they are deeply
Interested, and pay the bi II, this much is
due the dear people.
