be done is TO sell the present
grounds the Tenth ward square. with
the main building to some school, by
and with the consent of the city
council, then move all the other inn
prOvemenss to the old fair grounds, and
make stables out of them. The Ilgisla-
turc should be asked by the directors
to appropriate $4,000 to be expended
on buildings in the next two years,
$Z5.0OO TINS and $I5.GOO next year.

have made it in 2:l6, or better than she
had ever made, as this was the best
