GOING TO RICHMOND
Removal of Wayland Seminary to the vir-
ginia Capital Decided On.
An Imposing Group of Granite Build
tnEs Being Erected on n Conn
mOdiOus Site.

Wayland Seminary is to be removed to
Richmond IN September next. For the past
two or three years the directors of the in
stituuon have felt the necessity for larger
grounds, and while they have been 10th to
leave the beautiful location on Meridian
Hill at the head of 18th street, they have
been unable to make any other arrange
bent. The present site is too small for a
growing school, they say. and the sur
rounding property too costly to permit of
additions being secured. consequently the
change to Richmond was decided on.
The new location is high and healthy and
contains ample room for future growth
-Four fine granite buildings are now being
constructed and others will be commenced
In few weeks. By the middle of Septem-
Der an imposing group will be ready for
occupancy. The improvements will cost
$125,00O, it is estimated, exclusive Of the
land.
The present property on Meridian Hill will
be disposed of and the proceeds devoted to
the use of the school. 1t is felt by those
interested in Wayland that its removal to
Richmond will assure II larger constitu-
ency and open wider field for usefulness

ALL-AMERICAN ROUTE.
Capt. GIenn's Description of One to
klOndike Region.

The weekly meeting of the National Geo.
graphic Society was held last evening at
the First Congregational Church. A large
audience was present
The lecturer was Captain E. F. Glenn of
the United States army, who was chief of
a military expedition sent by the War De-
partment to survey an all-American route
into the Alaskan gold fields. After giving
an interesting account of how the expedi-
ton came to be organized he told of num-
ber of incidents in which the adventures
of the party were thrillingly depicted.
By means of lantern slide views thrown
on a screen Captain Glenn gave the audi
ence vivid Impressions of the magnificent
scenery in that far distant territory. The
speaker said that when the route surveyed
by his party is laid out it will be confined
to American territory, and will start from
some harbor which is open all the year
round, where vessels can anchor at all
times. There are now two routes to the
fields, but both have many objectionable
features to Americans. These were that
they lie mainly in foreign territory, and
that there is a disposition on the part of
Canadian officials to collect excessive duties
from immigrants.

man named Kate Gardner was a defendant

glad to say that the great majority of them
know to what use to put their money"

thirty, sixty and ninety days, respectively
in default of fine. and the woman was sent
