Thcre-Nevv Steamboat Line for

out on Marine Hallway.
The steamship Clematis. of the Ant
werp Naval Stores Company's feet,
sailed yesterday for Fernandina to get
the balance of her cargo of naval stores
for Antwerp and Hamburg. She clear
ed for those ports via Fernandina. For
a time il was the belief that the stuff
to be exported on these steamers would
be brought up to Savannah, and the
steamers load and sail from here.
1t is probable that the action of the
naval stores inspectors against the
Antwerp Naval Stores Company, for
forwarding stuff without an inspection
here and the fact the company de-
clined to have their stuff gagged twice
may have something to do with not
bringing it on here for export. Unless
a large amount of stuff is to be eX-
ported. it was. until the inspection
questions were raised, found to be the
better plan to bring it on here for for
warding, and this was until lately I'M
derstood to be the intention of export
ers. The sailing of the Clematis prob
ably means that the programme has
been changed, at least, for a time.

SAVE THE PLANkS !.
.rcP
SAYS DR.. OHACE
Health Commissioner Wants
Old Paving Material for
Harriet Island.

Health Commissioner Ohage wants the
planks that are taken from streets where
the old cedar blocks are being taken up
preparatory to the streets being paved
with more substantial paving.
II had to buy $50 worth of lumber for
nothing more than board walk at Har
riet island the other day." explained Dr.
Ohage yesterday, when if 1 had been
given some of these old planks they would
have done just as well. Lumber is lum-
Der just now, and I see no reason why
the contractors are allowed to carry off
and sell stuff they have no right to and
which the city could use and save the
taxpayers money!
Since the first of the year, and, in fact
ever since the city began tearing up
the old cedar block street pavements, mil
lions of feet of the planks, used for foun-
datlon purposes have been taken up with
them. Practically all of this, it is said,
has been taken possession of by the con-
tractors doing the work. During the paw
ing the plankS serve for fencing purposes,
but after that their fate is unknown
The engineering department. used some of
it, and occasionally three-plank side
walk is provided for sparsely settled
street when asked for.
DR.. Ohage asserts, however, that the
majority of the old planks are carried off
by the contractors and either sold or
converted to their personal uses.
He says the -planks before being laid
e were tagred and that as rule they are
desires to build a wall around Harriet
island, preparatory to filing in behind with
sand so as to enlarge the area of the
island and he has been asking that the
old planks be turned over to him.
1.-The contractors have been promising
and promising me that they would save
some of those planks for me- said DR..
Ohage yesterday, "but the best 1 have
got so far Is the promise. I could use
some Of those planks to advantage and
it would save money They are Just as
good for my purpose as new lumber

PROMISE EDITORS
STATE FAIR HOME
Minnesota Building at st. Louis
viii Ultimately Be Erected
at HamIine.

1t now seems pretty well settled that
the Minnesota state fair will ultimate
ly secure the Minnesota building to
be erected at the st. Louis worlds fair
Conde Hamlin, of st. Paul, chairman Of
the Minnesota state commission, appear
ed before the executive committee of
the state fair board at its meeting yes
terday afternoon and outlined the ideas
of the commission regarding the build
ing. His suggestions were received
with interest and he was given the in
formal assurance of the board that the
plans would have their hearty co-ope-
ration.
The general idea is to build struc-
ture at st. Louis which can be taken
down and removed to the state fair
grounds after the exposition is over.
The material will be hollow concrete
blocks which will be put together with
clamps and pins when the building is
first put up at st. Louis, but which
will be eemented together at the fair
grounds so as to make permanent
structure. Fully 95 per cent of the Ia
Dor and material will be paid for in
Minnesota before the building is ship
ped When it comes back Is men can
erect it on the fair grounds in 0days.
The main expense for the fair board
will be the cost of this final erection.
The suggestions met with the warm
fair board, and though nothing formal
was done as to action in the matter
it is now pretty well understood that
the Minnesota building will come back
to the state and become an ornament
to the state fair grounds. 1t is likely
that it will be devoted to the uses Of
the editors of the state as a head
quarters building. Such a building
has been needed for years and its con-
struction has only been deferred from
lack of funds.
A numbers of matters relating to the
building improvements now going on
upon the grounds were considered by
the executive committee yesterday.
The most important item of business
in this line was the award of the con-
tract for the roof of the new agricul-
tural machinery building to the W.
S. Mott company, of Minneapolis
Much work is now going on upon the
fair grounds and the members present
took advantage of the opportunity to
inspect that in which they were most
interested.
Those present at the meeting were
President c. N. Cosgrove, Of LIE
Sueur; First Vice President B. F.
Nelson, of Minneapolis; Second Vice
President Chester r. Smith, Of ST.
Paul; J. M. Underwood, Of Lake City;
DR.. J. c. Curryer, Of ST. Paul, and Sec
retary E. w. Randall Mr.. Randall
left soon after the meeting for Chica-
go where he will spend a day or so
looking up matters connected with the
coming race meet. Entries for this
meet will close on July 1.

SCHOOL BOARD
LACKS SECRETARY
Edward MCNamee, Newly Elect
ed, iii in Hospital at
Rochester.

Edward McNamee, recently elected sec
TetaTy of the board of school inspectors,
to take the place of James P. Healy, is
now i'll at hospital in Rochester, Mimi,
and there is every reason to believe that
he will not be able to assume the duties
of his new Office at the time set, which is
July l. The message received yester-
day was to the effect that Mr.. McNamee
had been operated upon for intestinal
trouble and that he is now progressing
toward recovery, but as he has suffered
from i'll health for some time past, and
even before the operation was much run
down physically. it is feared that his re-
cuperation will be a work of time
Mr. Healy has already taken up his
duties at the office Of the city clerk and
as this is the most busy time of the en-
tire year in the office of the board of edu-
cation the illness of Mr. McNamee has
caused the members of the board much
anxiety. For the 2resent Mr. Healy is
dividing his time between the city clerks
