The Flower Mission Thinks it Time the
Training School for Nurses Did Sc.

The Flower Mission, which was the
mother of the Training School for Nurses.
at it's last meeting took action regarding
the position of the training school. For
some time the Flower Mission has felt
that it was not in the financial condition
to render the school all the aid that was
necessary in that direction, and a plan has
been talked over for some time to settle
the matter in an amicable way. Finances
were needed and members OF the Flower
Mission thought the training school had
grown to hat age and strength, as well
as position in the community, where IL
should shoulder its own burden ana De-

AT PLYMOUTH CHURCH.
Sixteenth Annual Graduation Ex

Sixteenth Annual Exer-
cises of the school of ElOcutfOn.
The sixteenth annua commencement of
the Indiana-Boston School Of Elocution and
Expression, under the direction of Mrs.
Harriet Augusta Prunk, occurred last even
ing before a very large audience at Ply
mouth Church. Bishop Knickerbacker, who
has presided at a number of this schools
commencements, made the invocation, and
Mayor Denny spoke briefly. The class for
this year numbers three, Miss Marguerite
r. Vernon, Miss Winifred Bonewitz and
Mr.. Fred A. Sullivan. The members were
seen to advantage In the two public enter
tainments which Mrs. Prunk gave at the
Grand Opera House only a few weeks ago,
so that their several abilities were not en-
tirely unknown TO many OF those who were
present last evening. All of them showed
versatility, humor and pathos, comedy and
tragedy being happily commingled. Two Of
them expect to a the stage their pro-
fession and follow in the lead which a
large number of Mrs. Prunk's graduates
have made.
Miss Vernon, Miss Bonewitz and. Mr.. Sui
livan appeared In a scene from liking
Lear" and Miss Bonewitz and Mr.. Sulli-
van appeared in a scene from London AS
surance." Both were given with fine ex-
preston and excellent action. The recita-
tions individually were 'Herve Riel," by
Miss Vernon; Delaney Stuyvesant and the
Horse Car" by Miss Bonewitz, and Mag
feline or the Spanish Duel" by Mr.. Sui
Ivan, and two dainty bits of the opposite
variety, Homer Greene's Path of Cold
and Eugene Fields "A Dutch Lullaby"
by Miss Vernon.
The literary exercises were varied with
music Mrs CAROLYN Winter GOpfZ whO
came from Chicago with high mme
tons as a vocalist, and who has accepted
the position of soprano soloist at the Gen.
trail Christian Church., was heard in
ocean, Thou Mighty Monster" from
Oberon, and in Doris" In the latter she
was accompanied by a violin obligato by
Mr.. g. Riegger. Mr.. Spades. who is al
ways a favorite. and Mr.. Louis Dochez,
who has a fine bass voice, also assisted in
the musical part of the programme. The
Bishop presented the diplomas to the grad
yates with a few remarks. This evening
Mrs. Prunk will give a reception to the
graduates and Mr.. Oldorf, at her home on
West New York street.

Entertaining Exercises of that School
Last Evening-TO-Day's Programme.

bers by Edith Bingham, Lucy Hitch and
Ronaygne Latta.
There was a clever little play, Sighted

by the juniors and seniors. The former per-
formed with wands, and the latter gave the

large number of the members of the
school, prizes for which will be awarded
at the commencement, Thursday.

TO WATCH THEM ALL
CONTRACTORS MUST HEREAFTER
COMPLY WITH SPECIFICATIONS.
Better Sand Wanted for Sewer Work
and Good Gravel for Roadways-
Works Board's Latest Move.

The Board Of Public Works held a star
chamber session at 5 o'clock yesterday af-
ternoon- City Engineer Brown and his in
spectors received some general instructions
in regard to the street work. Mr.. Meyer
said that it was the intention of the board
to see TO it in the future that the property
owners Of the city received what was paid
for in the way OF public improvements.
The board believes there has been too
much inspection and not enough hard work.
The sewer contractors will receive a good
share OF attention in the future. The
specifications for all work i'm which sand is
used calls for clean, sharp river sand. 1t
has been the custom In this city for years
past to use the sam taken from the exca-
vations to make the mortar for laying the
brick. This sand is not suitable for sew
eral reasons. 1t is mixed with more or less
dirt, and while ii is generally hard and
finty, 1t is round and does not hold firmly
in mortar. The river sand has sharp cor
ners, and when mixed in mortar the sharp
points and corners add considerable to
its strength.
TIL same is also true OF cement sidewalks
and the concrete foundations for pave
ments. Contractors have been buying the
sand for this work where IL could be had
thS ChcdpeSl Will very little IeSdFu 10 It's
quality.
In preparing streets for Improvement the
contractors roll them before laying the
foundation, but 1t is done only because the
specifications require it, and very little at
tention is given to the sufficiency Of the
work. This part of the contract will be
closely watched by the inspectors in the
future, and no foundation will be laid until
the street has been sufficiently rolled. 1t is
believed that a close watch on this part of
the work will prevent such unsightly holes
as can now be seen in some of the i'm
proved streets, caused by the street settling
after the foundation has been laid.
Quite a number of complaints have also
been received by the board about the quail
lty OF the gravel placed in graveled STREETS.
Inc specifications require that il shall be
river or creek gravel, free from dirt. 1t is
not believed that all the gravel fulflls the
specification requirements in the latter par
tlcular; in fact, il is known that very little
OF II does. The result has been that gravel
streets are mud streets in the course of
two or three years. The board believes
that by close attention to these matters
the streets of the city will last several
years Longer than they do at present.

property until Mathe found out his los.
and then, OF course, as Hare1s AMI SUIT
phen figured it. they could easily give MIN
his watch. the joke would be exploded
and all would be over. However. when
Sutphen stole into the room and got the
watch Matne was only half doing. He
saw Sutphen take the watch and quietly
make his exit Sutphen is a new offlc r
on the force, and Mathe did not know
but that Sutphen intended stealing. the
watch. With his eyes half open Mafhe
watched Sutphen leave the stable BY the
front door and a few moments Afterwards
heard him climb the front stairs into the
office. where he gave Harris the watc1
for safe keeping. Mathe, meanwhile, July
convinced that Sutphen stole the. watch,
waited until yesterday morning for fur
ther developments, but none coming, went
over to Police Court and swore out a war
rant for Sutphen's arrest. charging him
with grand larceny. The warrant will
probably be served to-day.
Meantime Mathe is positive that SUIT
phen stole the watch. but is remaining
quiet for to-day's finale, and Gene Harris
and Sutphen are holding back. wondering
why Mathe has not made known his loss.
As soon as all this is known, however,
everything will doubtless be satisfactorily
explained and the warrant filed away I'M
served.
