Bolivar's New Public School

The money was received
last Saturday from the sale
of bonds, issued by the Cor
poration of Bolivar, for the
purpose of erecting and
equipping a public school

The building commission
has already purchased for the
sum of 800 the Fentress lot,
on Sycamore Street, upon
which the building will be
erected. The lot contains
two and one-tenth acres, is
conveniently located and
will furnish a beautiful site.

vide for a two-story brick
structure with slate roof.
On the first floor will be four
recitation rooms, the Princi-
pals office, two cloak rooms
and two wash rooms, the lat
ter to be supplied from a res
ervOir on the roof. A wide
hallway will extend through
the center of the building
with entrances at either end.
The auditorium, with stage
and dressing rooms at one
end, will occupy the whole
of the second floor.
Mr.. Swasey estimates that
the building can be erected
and equipped, according to
specifications, for $1,000.

DEVERY AND MAZET.


The Chief OF Police Explains Whit He
Allowed Fitz to Be Knocked out.
NEW YORK. June l5.-Tne sittings OF
the Mazet investigating committee today
were adjourned until August l.
Chief OF Police Devery was called upon
by Mr. Moss to explain why he hrst
threatened to stop the Fitzsimmons-Je JEFF
fries prize fight and then went to the
ringsIde and allowed it to go on to the
knockout finish. Chief Devery admit.
ted that he took an interest in prize
lighting and upheld prize fighting and
the Horton Law. Devery said the recent
fight complied with the law and was IN
all respects a clean cut contest.
He fenced great deal regarding
whether FRzsimmons was knocked out,
ard ended up by saying he thought the
Coruishman had had enough.
Moss then questioned Devery as to
whether he had made any attempt to
close the pool rooms since he was last
on the stand. Devery said he had not.
A wrangle ensued between the two, when
Mazet ordered Devery to leave the room.
As he made no move, Mazet called the
sergeant-at-arms. Devery then stepped
down from the stand and went from the
sitting.
Testimony was given to the effect that
policemen were guilty of blackmailiug
| diSorderly women.
