Sixth and / streets The building is three

each about 20x40 feet, one Of which will be
assigned 10 each company for meeting and
the storage Of uniforms, accouterments, rifles.
etc. There are also smaller rooms for Off
GERS. 1t is the intention to have few slight
repairs made before the companies move into
the building, which viii be done in about
three or four weeks. Plans will be drawn up
for the erection Of large drill hall covering
the vacant portion of the lot. The main
drill-room will be S0xl00 feet in dimensions,
with an spur 60 feet longer and 80 feet wide,
which will give the regiment $50 feet to form
a line for reviews, dress parades. etc. Each
company's arinory will communicate with

be galleries constructed. 4 large stage or
platform will also be erected, so that the main
hall can DO let for concerts, balls, conven-
tons, fairs, receptions. etc. Entrances to
this assembly room will be 50 constructed
that the hall eau be cleared in few momentF
The need of such building has been long felt
by the companies Of the National Guard To-
Gated here, their quarters having been
cramped. Regimental aud brigade head
quarters will also be established in the new
armory, and the accommodations will be go
ample that in all probability another com
pany will be recruited by permission of the
authorities, and added to the regiment ere a
great while, as the tendency is, and rightly,
too, to concentrate ths companies of the Ma
tional Guard.
