President Graham is receiving ma
terial for the University new build
ing. The men have just finished UNI
loading a car of steel to be used ID
construction and practically every-
thing else that will be needed for the
building is now contracted for. With
the opening of spring work can be
commenced again on the building.

plans from being carried out is the
matter Of securing laborers. Every
stonemason in the city will doubtless
ly be busy at the opening of the
building seaso and it may be a diff
cult matter to secure men. Architect
Dow is looking after some masons for
President Graham and thinks he will
be able to supply the demand for men
on the University building.

would be held in Alexandria, COM
mencing Tuesday. It was expected
that the new court house would be
completed in time for the February
term, but the building will not be
completed now until about the 1st of
June. The floors in the building
were put in by a sub-contractor and
after an examination by the COM
missioners they declined to accept
the work, and the floors through the
entire building will have to be taken
out and put in again. The floors
were made Of cement mixture and
the work was said not to be well
done, and as a result the putting in
of the rev floors delayed the finish
ing of the building.
