AN IMPORTANT MEETING

AN IMPORTANT MEETING
Regents to Open Bids for Addition to
College.
saltwater o. T, June 1-Governor w.
N. jenkins and the board of regents for
the A. and N. college IN this city VIII
hold an important meeting in this city
next Monday. The session Of the board
is to consider plans and bids for the
additions which are to be constructed
during the next two years. According to
the acts of the last legislature, an ap-
preparation OF more than $50,000 is made
for the new structure. Fifty per cent
Of the amount appropriated viii be de-
voted toward the construction of an as
sembly hall and quarters for the depart
ments of botany and etymology, which
viii be an addition to the library building
which was built with this idea in view.
Thirty per cent of the appropriation viii
be used for a building to be devoted 10
the engineering department. Ten per cent
of the entire appropriation viii be used
in a steam plant for the buildings. The
last ten per cent of the amount set aside
for the college viii be used in construct
ing a college barn, with all of the de-
tails arranged for scientific work.
The college is very fortunate in securing
its appropriation, and it was not until
action vas brought by Senator Free
man E. Miller that the matter was de-
cided in favor of the A and NJ. college.
The chances are that the buildings viii
be erected during the present year,
owing to the fact that the institution
win be crowded for room.
The annual commencement will take
place on Tuesday, and it is anticipated
that a large number of people win be in
attendance. The following is the pro-
