The Plans of the eCommission-Ready
to ReEin the Work OF Construction.
The commissioners appointed TO super
wise the construction OF the new congress
sional library have so far progressed as to
have their plans ready to enter upon the
work Of building when the land has become
the property OF the United States, the
buildings removed from off the three
squares, and the squares turned into one
piece Of ground. The streets and alleys
condemned contain 100000 square feet,
which makes the total available ground in
square thus formed 100000 square feet.
The new building will occupy about the
center Of this square, with the front go
feet In extent on First street, or facing the
capitol. The depth Will be 575 feet. The
center OF this immense structure will be
where street now runs, and there will be
1870 feet from the BUILDING line on both the
front and rear Of the building, while on
both the north and south sides there will
be 100 feet to the building line. The ground
surrounding the building will be made at
tractive with lawns and shrubbery, and
will really be an extension Of the beautiful
grounds surrounding the capitol building.
According to the plans the building, when
completed, will have accommodations for
millions Of books II all the space Is utilized
for this purpose and the fine art collection
crowded out. This will make ample pro-
vision, II is thought, for the needs OF this
country for century or more, but IL afte
the lapse Of that time further extension ls
deemed necessary provision has been made
| In the rear SO that the building can be eX
tended TO within 65 feet Of Second street.

is every prospect that better

Silk Fabrics, one Of the larg-

will no doubt soon be fol-
lowed by others.
In view Of this anticipated

our customers the opportu-
nifty to supply their present

low prices, which we have
every reason to believe will
not prevail longer than the
