the school year. 1t will be outwardly
as beautiful as the other one, but may
not be finished as to all the rooms. The
basement will not likely be SO ella Dor
ately finished. The board estimated
that if it should have to replace the
former building that with the insur-
ance money it will be able to do it
without going into debt this year. The
district owns the ground and owns the
excavation, which is as good as new
The foundation walls are not injured
and part of the building walls is in
tact. Some of the wall yet standing
will have to be torn down, but much of
it will be safe to tie to- The only
new material that will have to be
bought will be the lumber for the in
terror. the roofing and a veneering of
one layer of brick for the outer walls.
No work need be done in the basement
and there will be no plumbing imme-
diately. That work alone cost 5000 on
the other building. 1t is estimated that
the excavation and all the material
that may be saved are worth $1,000.

TERRITORIAL TREASURER
Appointment of l M. Christy to Be
Shortly Announced.

Announcement will be made within Il
day or two of the appointment of l. NJ
Christy to be territorial treasurer. The
appointment has already been decided
upon and Mr.. Christy yesterday Sc
cured his bond of $4,000 required by the
statutes. He will offer the Pacific Sure
ty company of California. The resig-
IA ton of Territorial Treasurer Penn
berton was submitted to Governor Bro
die about two weeks ago. Immediately
after the governor took office. but Mr..
PcmbertOn was requested to remain
until after the payment of the July in
terest, which fell due yesterday. The
interest was paid and the business was
brought up to a convenient point for its
transfer to Mr. Pemberton's successor
The name of Mr.. Christv has been
mentioned in connection with this Office
from the beginning of the administra-
ton CT Governor BrOdie. though the
governor himself had not indicated
whom he would appoint or that there
would be an early change in the office
office. 1t has been understood though
that he would make tour of territor-
ial institutions this week and that on
his return to the city announcement
would be made of certain appointments
There is a feeling in the air that other
changes will be made today.
The amount in the treasury now is
less than 100000. perhaps not more
than $4,000. The amount of the July
interest was a little more than $50 900.

GOING BEGGING
The $4,000 Insurance on the Five
Points School Building.

J. II. Clinkscales of Prescott, an ad-
juster of several large insurance COM
panies doing business in this territory,
has finished the adjustment of the loss
of the Five Points school building. The
building was insured in the Svea and
the German --merican companies for
81, COO. Mr.. Clinkscales said that in his
long experience he had never come
across a more complete and thorough
loss, and he decreed that there is 5000
going to somebody.
1t is a somewhat curious and almost
unprecedented fact that there is no.
body who wants it. Everybody who
might appear to have right to the
money wants to put it off on some one
else. The contractors will not touch it
unless they have to do so by Il decree
of the court and the school trustees ara
equally self-denying. But whoever may
be finally prevailed upon to accept the
award there will be $1,000 toward the
rebuilding of the Five Points school.
There is little doubt that building
will be in readiness for the pupils of
