NEW LeAoHE-wooD SEMINARY
BUILDING BEING ERECTED
FINEST IN THE SOUTH.

The new seminary on the corner of
Mary's avenue and Botetourt street,
being erected for Miss Agnes Douglas
West and which will be the future
quarters OF the Leache- Wood Semi
nary, Will, when completed be one OF
the finest buildings of it's kind in the
South, If not in the country. In every
respect will the building be modern.
ana several features will be introduced
architecturally that do not exist in
many colleges in the country The
building will be three stories high and
or the old colonial style. which will
add to It's attractivcness. a feature
worthy of note and which has not been
duplicated in the more modern col
leges is that there is u sitting room be-
tween two sleeping rooms. The heat
ing. ventilating and lighting of the
building is another feature. Both gas
and electricity will he used and the
heating apparatus will be in n build
Ing separate and distinct from the
main building proper. y great add
vantage is that the study rooms are
on the ground floor which dispenses
with any noise pupils may make where
the study rooms are higher up, and
where pupils necessarily have to as
is TO be n well-equipped gymnasium
and also pretty studio. Then there
are to be porches along the building,
where students can in favorable
weather enjoy the bright sunshine.
The ventilation of the building will be
as complete as experts can make it,
and the hand-ball, tennis and basket
ball courts will be boon to the pu-
pills since physical exercise is neces-
sary after the mental strain incident
upon hard study. There is to be
large yard. which is feature at the
present building. Last, but not least.
are the recitations and school rooms,
study hall. parlor, library and sleep
ing rooms for the pupils. The entire
establishment Is to be heated by steam.
The main entrance to the seminary
Will be on Mary's avenue. Particular
attention Is called to the infrmary.
If there is a sick pupil and the use Of
the infirmary be necessary. the patient
is completely isolated from the main
building. which insures perfect quiet
ness. Mr.. J. Il. r.. Carpenter is the
architect. Miss West is to be congrat-
ulatcd for having such a magnificent
building erected

COTTON LETTER s.

New York March 22.-Hubbard Bros. &
Co. say: Liverpool was again the weaker
market, surprising the trade by decline
on arrivals and an easier tone to the
spot market. Our market, however, was
disposed to look for a reaction from this
decline, and the local trade bought freely
on the opening, especially when it was
noted that there was a demand to cover
on May. Their buying started prices
slowly upward, until buying orders were
secured, upon which the local trade turn
ed sellers. The markets have been pure
" local in their character Receipts are
lighter at the ports and show some lit
tie increase at the interior towns, but
little attention was paid to the movement
New crop were freely offered on a basis
of Sc for January. Cables report the
decline to be largely caused by the re-
yersal of stradde operations between the
old and the new crop. Trade conditions
in Manchester are reported as feeling the
effect of the slack demand from India:
New York, March 22.-Murphy q Co
saw. The decline in Liverpool up to 2
u m of 3-32d on spots on sales of 1000
bales middlng uplands, l5-S2d on futures
and 4-6id lower on old crops and 1-64d on
new. caused this market to open points
down on old crop and ] point on new crop
deliveries Receipts being light and abb
sence of selling pressure encouraged, To-
cal hills to force recovery, and with
orders to buy new crops for foreign ac-
count. it was an easy matter, particu-
larry as Liverpool improved 2-64d between
. r. m. and closing. Southern orders TO
buv. though not large, were more num-
erous than of late. This is sort OF
quick turn market for small profits on
either side. and buyers realize and shorts
cover whenever there Is anything in II.
r,lIs have most confidence, hence all
disnosed to resist declining tendency The
n,,n,erous orders to sell December and
January around S.OOc prevents much i'm
nrovement in far months, despite buying
for European account.
