The first story of tho school building
is up and the furnaces are in place in the
basement. Work is progressing farely
well, considering the force employed
and if the weather permits the indications
now are that the building will be COM
pleted early in January. The contract
ors are doing good piece of work, and
would push it more rapidly were they
able to secure more competent help.
The report that Col. Tilford will re.
/ turn to Ft. Meade and succeed Col Otis
as commander of this post is not based
upon good authority. While Col Til

the Eighth cavalry will petition to have
him take command of their brigade.
