WILL BUILD HIGH SCHOOL.
City Donates Park for That Purpose.
Two Buildings Projected.

The city council and school board
held a joint session yesterday after
noon for the purpose of making some
definite arrangement about the erection
of new school buildings in Ardmore
with the $4,000 now on hand for that
purpose.
The different members of the coun-
Gil and some of the school board were
somewhat divided, but finally got to-
gether.
It was finally agreed that two build
ings should be built, one in the Third
ward on the city park, just south of
the Catholic church, and one on the
grounds where the Frensley school
building is now located.
The city gave the school board the
park for the purpose of erecting the
high school. and while this piece OF
ground is wedge-shaped 1t is amply
large for the purpose. and is surround
ed on all sides by a 60-foot street so
that the building will never be crowd
ed with other structures. This build
ing will be made of brick and contain
some six or eight rooms.
In addition to this another brick
building Ill be put up where the
Frensley school is now in the First
ward. II is to be built OF brick. and
contain about eight rooms.
The Second ward seems to be pret
ty well provided for already, but the
Fourth ward will either have the
Banks school house moved over tc
them or additions made to the build
ings they have now
Plans and specifications will be sub
mitted for these two buildings as .soor
as possible so that the buildings may
be finished in time for the opening
OF the schools next fall.

Huapt, archdeacon Of the diocese, and
Rev. George Heathcote Hills Of Atlanta,
Ga. Bishop Millspaugh will preach in ST..
Marks tomorrow morning, but Bishop
Edsall will be present and will announce
from chancel the changes which have
been effected by the vestry.
The coming Of Bishop Edsall to St.
Marks will make that church practically
a pro-cathedral. The demands Of the
office Of the bishop will leave abundant
opportunity for the activity of the two
Wears in st. Marks parish-under the
rector's supervision. The Wears will be
on an equal footing.
Archdeacon Haupt, who is now resident
in st. Paul, has won especial recognition
by his work in the Sunday school and
in missions. Mr.. Hills made an excellent
impression as preacher when he sup
piled the pulpit Of St. Marks In May and
is fully as much esteemed for his excellent
pastoral work.
The morning Of the first Sunday in Sep
TENDER has been set aside for the OBJ
servance Of the formal service Of insti-
tuition. The change will in no wise af-
feet the standing Of the cathedral at Fart
bault nor Of st. Clemens prc-cathedral al
St. Paul. Neither will the bishops new
parochial duties be allowed to encroach
upon his services in the diocese.

fessed embezzler Of the funds intrusted

when he left home that day he told his
wife he was going to the Methodist camp
meeting at Alton Bay, N. Y. Instead Of
going he continued on to Montreal. He
wrote letter and mailed it on Sunday to
Rev. G. H. Spencer, pastor Of the Saratoga
Methodist church in East Boston, where
he was q communicate and one Of the
leaders in church work. Spencer was on
his vacation In Vermont. Allen made a
complete confession In the letter, saying
he had lost the funds Of the society in
speculation and closed by asking Spencer
to notify his family and the other officers
of the society. Aliens whereabouts are
not known for certain, but the police have
been appealed to by the society and are
looking for him.
On Monday last, the police at Montreal
received information from a physician at
Bakersfield, VT, that Allen had gone to
Montreal with the intention Of committing
suicide. AS no particulars were given,
not much attention was paid to the mes
sage. From Investigations they have
made, the police authorities express the
belief that Allen sailed for England on the
steamer Lake Manitoba, last Thursday.

Bay Side, L. l., Aug. S.-Charles A.
Gould and his wife, who are we'll known
in society," were perhaps fatally injured
in an automobile accident on Bell avenue
shortly after 10 o'clock last night. Early
this morning the couple had not regained
consciousness and 1t Is feared they will
not recover. Three physicians, Drs
Charles B. Story, Charles Lever and e.
A. Goodridge, are In close attendance.
Mr.. Gould is a son of Charles Gould,
of the Gould Car Coupler company, and
is wealthy. His wife, to whom he was
married five yeas ago, is a well-known
society woman. She Is a daughter Of
Richard M. Bell, wealthy resident Of

Cured. ..s.
Mr. and Mrs. Gould were in the habit
Of taking long trips by moonlight in their
big touring car. They were out on a
pleasure trip last night and Mr.. Gould
was in the chauffeur's seat. They were
but short distance from their home
when the accident occurred. Nearing
their residence on little Neck Bay is a
long, steep hill, which at the bottom turns
abruptly to the left. Along Bell avenue
they sped at fair rate of speed until
they reached the top Of the HILL Mr.,
Gould did not slacken the speed, but
continued on the descent, as there was
apparently clear sailing ahead.
The moon was shining brightly and the
electric arc light overhead at the turn
showed that there were no obstacles ir
the road approaching. They shot rapidly
down the hill and just they were about
to make the turn a stray horse jumped
out from the side of the road Mr. Gould
did not have time to reverse the lever and
plunged into the animal. The occupants
were thrown headlong on the side Of ar
embankment and rendered unconscious
The horse was killed. The machine die
not stop until 1t had gone 100 yards up

of the Gould residence. The accident hap.
pened in front Of the Willows, the resi-
dence of John II. Harway.
Members Of the Earway family rushed
out of their house when they heard the
terrific sound of the collision and found
Mr.. and Mrs Gould lying on the ground
unconscious. They were picked up nnt
carried into the Harway residence and
three physicians hurriedly summoned.
Mr.. and Mrs. Gould were finally re
stored to consciousness this afternoon and
their condition is said to be improved
Mr. Gould sustained fractured shoulde
and many bruises about the head ant
body. Mrs. Gould's nose was broken an'
her scalp cut

ENEMY SURRENDERS
Hostile Fleet Is Attacked by the De-
tenders and Hauls Down
It's Flag.

Bar Harbor, Me-, Aug. s.-The naval
search problem which began last Wednes-
day noon w:tsn Rear Admiral Barker took
up the plan of defending the Maine coast
from hostile fleet" which put to sea
on Monday under Rear Admiral Sands,
ended early to-day when the Olympia,
flagship of the defending fleet intercepted
the white squadron" of the enemy
headed at full speed for Winter Harbor.
The hostile vessels were running In close
order formation and had not the fog lifted
might have eluded those. on guard.
Before her consorts could reach the
scene in answer to her signals the Olym-
pia had been forced to fly the white flag
and consider herself captured or de-
stroyed by the hostile commander.
The Olympia was the furtherest to the
eastward Of the defending squadron and
had been occupying position twenty five
miles outside Of Bakers island for the
greater part Of three days.
A thick fog bank made it impossible to
cover the ordinary cruising radius and
the men on Admiral Dewey's old flag
wait.
Enemy Is Sighted.
Shortly after o'clock the fog bank
began to roll out to sea and as the at
mosphere cleared every man and officer
on deck searched the constantly enlarging
field of vision with anxiety. Suddenly
there was a cry overhead and simultane-
ously from various parts of the Olympia S
superstructure, .There they are, sir
Used the Wireless.
In an instant bugle notes rang out on
the Olympia, men rushed to quarters and
the operator in the wireless telegraph
room was signaling for the Kearsarge to
announce the discovery of the fleet to
Rear Admiral Parker. The flagship,
twenty-five miles away, off Mount Desert
Rock, caught the sound waves and
answered, In a few moments word came
by wireless that the Kearsarge was on
| her way to the Olympia.
Meanwhile the latter vessel had found
| herself in a predicament. The fog which
| had been Of advantage to the enemy
proved Of disadvantage to the Olympia for
| when it lifted Admiral Sands vessels were
too close to the defending vessel for her
| to escape. Under the rules, she was
overpowered by the superior force and
Icou1d do nothing but run up the white
flag. The conditions at this point had 1t
not been for the wireless telegraph, In
Dictated that Rear Admiral Sands might
have reached an anchorage in Winter
| harbor.
It was about 1870 o'clock when the
! Olympia wireless message was received
on the Kearsarge. General quarters were
sounded and in q aremarkablyl short time
the eKarsarge was under way followed ir
turn by the Alabama and the Illinois. A
number of torpedo boat destroyers anC
tugs fell in behind the battleships as they
rushed on to meet the hostile vessels. Ir
an hour the Kearsarge and her consorts
were in sight Of the enemy. When they
arrived the invading fleet surrendered
