CLASS OF 1SU4 furnished the
literature reading-room like
a home library. They gave
a beautiful cabinet, several
colonial chairs, a long
quaint bench, a table and
rug, a picture, and some
unique brass ornaments for
the cabinet and book
shelves. The room is very
lovely and an ideal place
for study.
There have been several
changes made in the East
Side high building this sum-
mer and fall. The third
floor has been finished off
into class and recitation
rooms like those on the two
lower stories, and a little
room over the office, not
yet finished, is to be a rest
room in case of emergency.

I'm the fiscal year that has
just closed the excess of income
over the ordinary expenditures
was nine millions Of dollars.
This does not take account of the
fifty millions expended out of the
accumulated surplus for the pur.
chase of the lsthmian Canal. It
is an extraordinary proof Of the
sound financial condition of the
nation that instead of following
the usual course in such matters
and throwing the burden upon
posterity by an issue Of bonds,
wewere able to make the payment
outright and yet after it to have
in the treasury a surplus of one
hundred and sixty.one millions.
Moreover, we were able to pay
this fifty millions Of dollars out
of hand without Causing the
slightest disturbance to business
conditions From President
Roosevelt's speech accepting the
republican nomination for the

 The letter embraces the mar ket news of the day, received by private wire, and will doubtless prove of interest and worth to many of our subscribers.
 One hundred and twenty-five names are added to our mailing list of parties living in nearby towns tributary to Newport by trading interests.
 This carries our daily circula- tion past the 800 mark, which makes the Independent a more valuable advertising medium than ever before. The daily and weekly Independent expect to reach a circulation of 2,000 be- fore the current year is ended.
