ARSENAL SALE.
Most OF Government Property Bought
IN by Prof. n. C. Weber and
E. E. BarthelI.
WILL BE KEPT FOR MILITARY
TRAINING SCHOOL.

Prof. H.C. Weber and wife and Hon.
z. E. Barthell and wife, of Nashville,
came down Wednesday to attend the
sale at the Columbia Arsenal. Prof.
Weber. it will be remembered, will be
the principal of the Columbia Training
School, and Mr.. Barthell is one of the
stockholders and trustees of the school.
The sale at the Arsenal was very
satisfactory. most of the property sell
ing for what it was worth, though
some good bargains were made. The
ranges lawn mowers, etc. were bought
in by Prof Weber and Mr.. Barthell,
and will be kept for the training
school.
The deed to the property will be
turned over to the trustees of the
school about next Tuesday or Wednes-
day. 1t has been made out, signed and
ready for delivery for some time, but
has been held in the government pos
session until the Arsenal is formally
abandoned by the government. This
will be on the Both.
8 AS soon as the deed is received. a
meeting of the trustees of the Military
Training School will be held at the Ar
senal for the purpose of deciding
whether or not the school will be
opened in September.
. The Trustees recently made a. requisi-'
tion on the War Department for a
Military Commander for the School,
but they were informed that the gov
eminent could not assign any Com
mander until notice was given that
the school had room and accommoda-
tions for $50 students. Some difficulty
may arise on this score which may
prevent the schools opening in the
fall. The main dormitory Will be
the three story stone building which
was used as the ordnance building, but
SO much work will be required in
altering it that it cannot be placed in
shape for at least twelve months.
The other buildings. even though they
can be arranged by fall will not ac-
$50 boys. 1t is believed,
however. that the government will
furnish commander as soon as the
school starts up.
