Buildings in Contemplation.


Although it is still early in the season
there seems fair prospect that our car
penters and builders are to be kept mod
erately busy this season at home
Beside the usual amount of repairing
and changing which property holders
find it necessary to have done at least
once year, there are to be several dwell.
ing houses erected, and the three brick
blocks previously mentioned.
George H. Hoyt has taken the contract
to build pretty two story house for Mr..
j. Il. Drew OF the Park drug store, on that
very desirable lot at the corner OF Pros
pect avenue and Prospect street.
The cottage on the east side OF Brooks
pump shop, belonging to Mr.. s. H.
Brooks, is to be raised one story and
made into comfortable tenement house,
by Robert Parker.
George p. Wood, the architect, has de-
cided to erect neat and tasty two-story
house on Highland avenue, just south OF
the residence OF Charles Briggs. The
building will contain three rooms and a
reception hall on the first floor, and a
bath room and three chambers on the
second floor.
Plans for Mr.. Heman Powers new
house have been completed, and the lum-
Der is already on the ground. This struc-
ture is to be large and commodious farm
house and will stand on the foundations
of the old Waite house that was burned.
Mr.. Powers has given the contract for the
building to Mr.. George p. Wood.
A. A. Atwood's house on South Main
street has been reshingled this season,
and the home of A. G. Wheeler on Ran.
dolph avenue, and of Orson Woodcock on
Pearl street, are also to be provided with
spring bonnets in theway OF shingles.

Miss Bertha Thayer, niece OF Mrs
Frank Griswold, took prominent part
in the annual game OF basket ball played
by the sophomore and freshman teams oil
Smith college just before the close OF the
winter term.
The ball used in the game, according tc
the usual custom, was purchased by the
freshmen and was simply an ordinary
medium sized Rugby football. The teams
wore the regulation navy blue gymna-
stun suits, consisting OF blouse waists
and divided skirts. Every player had the
figures OF her class upon the front of her
suit, band upon the left arm and sailor
tie, all made in her class color. The soph.
omore team, to which Miss Thayer be-
longs, won the game, 19 goals to 10, and
the excitement was tremendous. The '97
players carried their captain upon their
shoulders around the gymnasium once,
then stepped in front OF the platform to
receive the banner, which signifies that
they hold the championship Of the col,
lege in basket ball.
Miss Thayer was mentioned among the
four finest players on the sophomore side,
to whose adroitness the successful win.
ming of the game was due.
Athletics in girls colleges are no doubt
a great thing and are likely to prove OF
practical benefit; for the graduates, after
thorough training in basket ball and
similar diversions, ought to be able to shy
stone at hen without hitting them
selves in the back OF the head.

MISS GEORGIA WHITE, Local Edito,

EASTEK MUKNINN,
Forth she trips on Easter morning,
Clad in all the latest style,
Proof within her shining armor,
'Gainst the DEVILS every vile:
For she knows her skirt is hanging
In the perfect Godet plat,
And her sleeves, though quite astounding
Are for certain up to date.
But her helmet OF salvation
Giving her feeling that
She can stand the glance of malice,
Is her lovely Easter hat.
And she knee Is IN rapt devotion,
Like pious little saint,
Bending low her millinery
As she uttcrs her complaint
For she very sweetly prayeth
For the mad man left at home,
Adding up the bills she gave him,
As his wild eyes DER them roam.

declares i. unconstitutional and void
No one will weep over its oblltera-

first decision handed down BY the Su-

that the second decision buried it,
The last decision says in substance:
Congress has no authority to levy an
income tax without apportionment
among the states on the basis Of pop
ulation. 1t follows that the revenue
will be reduced, but the increase Of
business will enable the administra-
ton to stem the tide without calling
to its aid an extra session Of congress
or the issuance of additional bonds.
