THE BOARD OF EDUCATION

Materially 0Iodihes the Contract for the
New LlncoIn school Building,
After considerable hustling on the
part OF the clerk and mcmbers OF the
board OF education a quorum was
raised last evening for a special meet
ing called yesterday morning. Those
present were Messers, Boyd, Campbell
Ellingham, Hubbard, Maxwell, Miller,
Mi.ligan, @. Moenkmoeller, Park,
Rosenberg, Ulrich and Walford. The
meeting was called for tho purpose OF
making an addition to the considers
ton for the Lincoln school contract,
already agreed to by the board, in
accordance with the plans accepted
from Architect NJ. +. Geisey.
On Tuesday the walls on the north
and east sides, which were intended to
be left standing, were blown down,
with the result OF crushing both tiers
of joists and the remaining walls and
foundations to such an extent that the
board deemed it advisable to take
down the entire walls and foundations
clear to the bottom OF the stone work.
Mr.. John shrake, n member OF the
firm OF John S. Shrake & Sons, was
present. This firm had the contract for
the new part, and was awarded also the
contract for replacing all the old worl;
with now materials.
The contract price for this additional
work was $500, making tho total con.
tract price Sl4,475. This still brings
the work within the limit of the board
which had decided to spend about
$4,000.
Mr.. shrake will begin tho work on
next Monday, with large force OF EN-.
ployes. He also at the meeting sub.
mitted to the board for inspection and
approval samples Of all the materials
that will be used in the construction Of
the building.
No other matter was brought up be-
fore the board than that named in the
call.
