School Board Meeting.

The board of directors OF school dis
trict No. held quite lengthy session
at the office Of the secretary last night
About the main thing that was done at
the meeting WAS the adoption Of the
plans for the new building which is to
be erected this fall for school purposes.
A large number Of plans were submit
ted for the inspection OF the board, some
OF them coming from Denver and Colo.
RADIO Springs and other outside cities.
After carefully going over the entire list
the board finally adopted the set sub
mitted by Architect j. B. Boyer of this
city as being the best in the number.
From o'clock yesterday afternoon
until after the midnight hour the mem
bers of the school board spent the time
in carefully reviewing every detail OF the
various plans submitted, taking into
consideration each item OF expense that
would be incurred, and making their de-
cision according to the plans that were
to the best interests OF the county.
Among all the plans that were SUBJ
mitted for the consideration OF the di-
rectors there were none that equalled
those of Architect Boyer. These were
the plans adopted and Mr.. Boyer was in
structed to furnish specifications for
same within II days. 1t is certainly q
compliment to Mr., Boyer that out of all
the plaus submitted his has been select
ed as the best.
1t was decided to open school on the
second Monday OF September.
A number of bills we're allowed and as
many more referred until the next meet
ing to receive the o. ks.
Nothing was done in regard to the
bids for the repairs on the old school
buildings and the matter was deferred
until tomorrow night when the board
will hold another meeting.

Night Officer JEFF Watson last night
arrested Thomas Nelson for disorderly
conduct, and placed him in the city Jail .
Thomas Nelson is the man who came in
from Whitewater yesterday and reported
TO the officers that he had found a man
floating in the Gunnison river. At first
the mans story created considerable ex-
citement, but 1T was afterward learned
that Nelson was not mentally RESPONSE
ole for his actions and the police dis
missed the matter. While Nelson is not
insane, he is supposed to be slightly off
80 far as mental faculty is concerned,
and the police believe that his story is
one OF his own manufacture. He had
been drinking pretty heavily last night
which resulted in his arrest.

Strike Situation.

Chicago, July Hopes OF a speedy
settlement Of the strike of the freight
handlers union, which was declared to-
union and members OF the state board Of
arbitration. The officials OF the union
at conference told Chairman Job Of
the board Of arbitration, that they were
willing to permit employees OF the differ
ent companies to meet officials OF the
same to discuss the wage scale. provld-
ing joint conference should be held at
which officials OF the union would be
permitted to act as advisers to the men.
The arbitration board is now working on
the matter in an effort to bring about =
conference between the railway mana
gers and committees representing the
men. AS the railroad officials have Of
fered this step from the beginning OF the
controversy there is little doubt the
strike can be settled satisfactory to both
sides il tbs conference shall be arranged
Denver, July News has gone to
President Mitchell of the United Mine
Workers OF America from the Western
Federation Of Miners, headquarters in
Denver, that the southern Colorado coal
fields are furnishing material to the
trade otherwise supplied by the men
now on strike in the east and south.
Means will be taken at once to prevent
this action, and there is strong proba-
bility that the controversy will extend to
Colorado and include the Colorado Fuel
and Iron Co the Victor Fuel comp any
and other corporations said to be send
ing coal east. Official information has
reached the miners organization to the
effect that all of the foreign coal cars
from locations east OF the Missouri river
that are coming into Denver and other
cities Of the state are being sent to the
southern coal fields for loading to be
shipped east again. Some OF these cars
have been traced by wire and it has been
found that they are going as far east as
Pennsylvania.
