ADMINISTRATION building and violent in
sane ward. Contracts for these will
not be let until tho kitchen, dining
room and laundy are completed, which

1.-The criticism Of the commission
for not Fastening the work Is unjust"
said Chairman J. ID. Allen yesterday.
at has been impossible to proceed
with tho buildings until the plans were
adopted. The architect, MIR. Hohens-
child, has been busy upon them.
When tho fact Is considered that he
has three sets OF plans to DRIFT, with
accompanying specifications, 1t Is easily
understood that we could not erect
the buildings in night. We desire

extras piIing up on US after the build
lngs are erected"
The members of the commission
