Questions Between the School Trustees
and Contractors Left to Arbitration.
There was a meeting Of the school trus-
tees last night, at which it was decided to
refer to arbitration differences between the
trustees and some contractors. The build
ing committee reported that according to
the understanding of the members of the
committee. Messrs. Lands d Foss, paint
ere ON the now high school. were not COM
pleting their work according to the con
tract. Mr.. Lands. who was present, said
they were, and it was finally decided, be-
fore accepting the work, to appoint two ar
bitratots to report on the matter. The
trustees named +. TeutenberQ to rep
resent the district. The other case
related to the steam heating plant
by Sturrock. Preuitt & Phelps. Superin-
that this work was not up to the contract,
specifying the points where ne said the diff
fel ences existed. Mr.. Sturrock was of the
opinion that the completed plant met the
requirements of the contract. AS none OF
the trustees are steam heating experts il
was decided to leave this question also TO
arbitration and F. NJ. Gilbert will repre-
sent the school district.
The Sand Coulee Coal company was
awarded the contract for furnishing 100
tons of coal. being the lowest bidGers at
IS. 10 a ton for lump and $3.50 for nut. L.
Nj. Culver got the Wood contract at 81, 95 a
cord.
The trustees expect to be able to use the
third tloor in the high school within the
next two weeks.

in all the principal cities of this
country. from New York TO San Francisco,
will be seen in this city for the first time
tonight, tomorrow night and Saturday

While this play 10 as ~farcioal and ridiou-
lously humorous az any of the modern farce
comedies, 1t is. at the same time, played by
artists of unquestionable reputation, and
altogether on a high comedy plane; yet tho

IL IL Liable to Lead TO ~ Much Litiga-
ton M "a township.
Two feet Of ground In ths rear of China
man Lung Ling's big brick house on West
Main street. near the city hall, is likely to
lead to MS much litigation as II a whole
township were involved. 1t 10 claimed that
Lung Ling, wishing 70 get an outlet from
tho rear Of his premises, bought three feet
Of ground for nm alley way, of which one
foot was purchased from the Chinaman
owning the adjoining property, and two
feet from h.. 4. Roeder. Lung Ling put a
fence around IL and was using II for an
alley. One morning when he woke up the
fence had been taken down. Not only had
IL been taken down. but 1t had been taken
away. He laid the blame to II. i. Reeder,
who, Ii Is stated, denies ever having sold
the strip Of ground to Lung Ling. The
latter had decided to test the matter in the
courts and will bring suit for possession OF
the ground and damages for removing the
fence. As the matter will largely depend
on the genuineness of the deed Of transfer.
and as both parties have money TO make
the fght, the contest Is expected to DO very
bitter.
