FROM BAR HARBoR.
"Kearsarge" Arrives-About All the
Battleships are in the Harbor.

! "Kearsarge' Arrives-About All the
Battleships are in the Harbor.
BAR HARBoR. July % (special)-oue OF
the chief incidents connected with the
visit OF the American wsrships 10 this
port was the arrival, Sunday afternoon,
| OF the first-clsss battleehip "Kesrsarge"
| on her race against time from England.
Her arrival had been awaited with keen
Interest by all classes at Bar Hsrbor, and
there was much speculation as TO the
length OF time that would be consumed
mans bay. The opinion of those most
likely to know was that the big ship
would arrive between Saturday noon and
Sunday night, aud this opinion proved to
be correct.
From Saturday till the time OF her
arrival the horizon was scanned by the
eager eyes of the watchers for the appear
ance of the ship.
Shortly before s O'Clock Sunday after
noon the "Kearssrge" appeared down the
harbor, and steamed at q moderate rate
through the lower harbor, up by Bar Is
land and dropped her anchor within
short distance OF the flagship illinois,.
There was no demonstration in the line
OF firing salutes, owing to the arrival be-
ing on Sunday. Had the arrival OF the
ship been on any other day in the week,
it is probable that The cannonading would
have made every pane of glass in he town
rattle merrily.
Shortly after the "Kearsarge" came to
anchor the flag lieutenant OF the "Illi-
nois" conveyed to Capt. Hemphill, OF the
"Kearsarge'' the compliments OF Rear
Admiral Barker, and the commanders OF
the other ships followed suit.
The trip OF the "Kearsarge" establishes
a new record for ships of her class in
voyage across the ocean, and her per-
Torrance is considered very remarkable.
The trip was made in nine days, four and
quarter hours. The average speed OF
the ship for the 1900 miles was little
more than thirteen knots an hour.
On the best days run the average speed
was fifteen knots, and the poorest days
run was an average Of ten knots.
The ship left The Needles at % p. m.
on July II, and arrived at Mt. Desert
Rock at u 30 p. m. on July rs. Fairly
good weather prevailed during the trip.
but some Fog and one gale were encoun-
tered.
There were no accidents OF any kind,
and the ship is in the best OF condition,
and with little cleaning up will be in
fine shape for the manoeuvres which are
soon to take place

abandoned, however, and it was agreed
that the committee should hear bot b sides
OF the question and make report, giving
their opinion as to the merits OF the con-
troversy and stating what would be fair
adjustment thereof.
The commit ee went into the whole

THE OLDEN TIME
Tweny-one Years Ago This Week In
Aberdeen and Brown County.
(From the files Of the Republican,

The issue of the Republican for
this week twenty-one years ago was
rather barren of items of interest to
the average readers of today. The
school board had met and arranged
for the immediate erection of tenn
porary school building. Miss Barnes,
now resident of Warner, was en-
gagged to teach, and the time fixed
for the opening of the term was May
10. This was the first public school
in Brown county, but not the first
school. Mrs. G. III. Peasants had
taught a term of two months the
previous fall. but it was a private
school. (
Z Itwas noted that the jail at Colum-
bia had been completed, that Chas.
B. Peck was putting up a residence,
and that j. d. LAWN had about COM
pleted his store at Columbia.
The Frederick Gazette and Free
Press had just been consolidated un'
der charge of E. L. Spence.
Under scare head lines announcing
a big building boom in column ane
over, adetailed review is given of the
number of buildings in course Of con
stuction. The whole boom seems
poor and puny compared with wha
is being done in the city the presen
wear.

THE WASHINGTON SCHOOL.
Bonds are to be Voted to Enlarge
and Rebuild 1t.

A special meeting Of the school
board was held Monday night for the
purpose of hearing and discussing the
report OF the finance committee.
This committee had had under con-
sideration the necessity Of providing
additional school room and the ways
and means for such building extern
sion.
The report touching the financial
condition Of the city disclosed the
fact that at the present assessed value
kof city property the limit Of bonded
Indebtedness is $4,000. Deducting
from this amount s45, 800. the present
bonded Indebtedness of the city,
heaves 1923, 500 as the amount for which.
bonds may be issued. Warrants are
outstanding for over..slO,0OO and If
bonds are issued to the limit this
amount would be paid, leaving s13, 900
available for building purposes.
The west portion Of the high school
building is the original school build
ling authorized to be built twenty-one
lyears ago, at cost not to exceed
$4,000. 1t is frame veneered with
brick and not up to modern require
ments. 1t is proposed to replace this
with brick extending to within ten
1 feet of the Lincoln building.
The crowded condition of theschools
makes it imperative that this move
be taken and the proposition to issue
bonds will undoubtedly carry. The
attendance in the city schools exceeds
| a thousand and it is estimated that
applicants for admission to the Higf
/ School next September will reacf
nearly 200, and present accommoda
! tions are scarcely adequate for half a
many.
The result Of the discussion wa
that the following resolution wa
adopted:
Resolved, that the mayor Of tn
city Of Aberdeen, S. D., be requested
!, to call special election Of the voter
of said city for the purpose Of voting
upon the question of issuing bonds ii
