1t will be recolleoted that the school
house on Center street was remodellsd a
few years ago at moderate expense and
made very satisfactory school building.
1t would seem to be just as feasible to
remodel the Park street building. If all
the school houses in the city that are not
of the most modern kind are to he
thrown away, we have some pretty big
expenditures before us. If the Park street
district cannot put up with anything
short of a brand new sohoolhouse, a
numb Der of Deering districts that have
school houses not of the latest design
will be likely to feel that they can get
along with nothing but the finest, and
their claims viii be just as good as that
of the Park street district, better even,
for the Park street building is probably
better than theirs. There ought to be a
halt called on the tearing down of the
Park street building and further
consideration given the question.

The fact that the transports which re-
Gently left Manila for the United States
took no volunteers would Eseem to indi-
cate that Gen. Otis was still little fear
full that the war was not SO near It's end
as he has been prophesying. The time of
enlistment Of these volunteers expired
some weeks ago, and the only jasti:i
tion for retaining them at Manila 10 that
their withdrawal. might put US in
jeopardy there. and that is doubtless the
excuse Gen. Otis would offer for not send
Ing them home.

The outlook for the ice business on
the kennebeo does not seem to have been
dimmed essentially by the formation of
the trust. A very large and fine crop was

of orders for ice so much as for the want
of vessels, which seem to be very hard to
obtain.
