HOBOkEN LAND MARK TO GO
P. r. r. Has Bought the New
Jersey Yacht Club House,
Will Build a Pier.

Notice has been served on the New
Jersey Yacht Club that it must vacate It's
old ~boathouse, foot of Eleventh street,
Hoboken, by Jun 1. The boathouse is
one of the oldest in the country, and
has been a landmark along the Hoboken
shore front for the past half century.
The club has still some of its fleet in
the old building. The property on which
it stands was originally a part of the
old Stevens estate. 1t passed into the
control Of the Hoboken Land and i'm
provement Co., and was recently pur-
chased by the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company.
The company. it is understood, intends
to build a pier on the site of the building,
which is but a small portion of its re-
cent big purchase.
A meeting of the club was held last
evening. Commodore William Sherman
presiding. Arrangements for the transfer
of the club boats to the G%reenville house
were discussed at length.
The old BOAT house, which was once the
finest in the State, Is now in a deerepit
condition. Its old gable roof is baesy
decayed and the building is rapidly fall
ing apart. 1t would W. been only a
question of a short time. it Is thought,
when the club would have had to va
cate of it's own accord.

FAVOR OF LEMBEcK SITE.
Greenvi1le Residents Want it for
School No. 20.

The majority of the residents of the
GreenviIle section favor the purchase of
the Lembeck site for the new school,. In
fact the ACCESSIBILITY of circulating a pc
tition. to be afterward presented to the
Board of Education, is being discussed.
The Lembeck site has a 100 feet 'front.'
age ON the Old Bergen Road, extending
back to Columbia Park, with jackson
place as the southern boundary and
Bartholdi place the northern boundary.
This site would be admirable for school
purposes, being situated in one of the
prettiest parts of Greenville, nearly ppo
site to Mr.. Lembeck's mansion. 1t is I'M
derstood that the property can be fur
nished for an extremely low figure, as
Mr.. Lembeck is willing to sell it for school
purposes at a price much below its value.
Although the Board of Education has
applied to the Finance Board for $780, 900
to erect a new school on he old site on
Danforth avenue, no really definite action
has been taken in the matter. The old
site is not popula with Greenville citizens
and it is thought that the Board of Edu-
cation may be induced to consider the
Lembeck. site, which. according to the
Greenyilleites, would be the best spot on
which to erect the new school,.

NEW LIBRARY BUILDING
Contract Awarded and ;
Promise Made That it
Will Be Finished
Next May.

The Free Public Library Trustees met
last evening in the City Hail to consider
the bids submitted for the erection of the
new building on Jersey avenue. There
were present, beside the Trustees, Mr..
Brite of the firm of Bacot & Brite, the
architects, and Mr.. Riley, representing
the building firm of Norcross Brothers.
After a lengthy and careful consultation
the Trustees warded the contract to
Norcross Brothers at the sum of $3.50, 191,
hat being the lowest amount bid for the
entire work of the building, except the
stacks and safes, which, under the terms
of the competition, will be Did for scpar-
ately, and the contract for their con-
struction awarded later. The Noreross
Brothers were not only the lowest bidders
in the aggregate, but their bid was many
thousand dollars lower than that of any
combination of the other bidders on vari-
Gus sections.
The Trustees regret very much that a
Jersey City man was not the lowest bid
der, but under the terms of the bidding
the contract had to go to the lowest bid
der wherever he came from. The firm of
Norcross Brothers, the successful bidders,
however, are one of the best In their line
in the country and have erected some of
the finest buildings of the day in vari-
Gus cities. Notably among them are the
library of Columbia College and the Al
legheny County buildings at Pittsburg,
and they are at present building the
handsome union station in Albany for the
New York Central, West Shore and Deia.
ware and Hudson Canal Company's Rail-
road. The Trustees made an appeal to
Mr.. Riley to buy materials from Jersey
City firms and give employment to citi-
zens OF this city as far as possible. Mr..
Riley said that would be done not only
in Difference to the Trustees but because
it was the custom of the firm to leave as
much money in towns as possible where
they erect buildings.
The Trustees examined samples of
brick and stone and approved of those
materials as to color. For the front and
sides of the building there will be used a
yellow gray brick with a pinkish tint,
which harmonizes with the granite to be
used for trimming. This is a very hand
some stone, notified with a salmon tint,
which imparts to it a rich, warm appear
ance. Thu bricks for the front and sides
will be hard baked double pressed, while
those for the rear and smokestack will
be gray in color with a somewhat glazed
surface, wire cut and hard baked. Both
the architects and the builders were
pleased with the material selected and
congratulated the Trustees upon their
cheice. Mr.. Riley promised the Trustees
to begin work on the building at once.
On Monday he will begin to gather ma
chinery and material on the premises. He
said his firm has a record for never being
behind in its contracts and has always
finished it's buildings on time. He felt
confident that the new library will be
ready for ~occupancy by May ! next when
the lease of the rooms now occupied will
expire.

dancing was a feature of the perform
ance. that of the Grayson Sisters and
Little Chip being especially worthy Of
mention. That of the young ladies was
highly artistic and extremely graceful.
