Rev. DR.. A. B. Marshall at Chicago, and
he Is expected to be present.
At a meeting last night repairs to the
church, which received damages that will
cost about $4,000 in the Saturday night
storm were considered. An element pres

case it would be necessary to raise the
money by mortgage. A committee was

But Parts of Two Buildings May Not Be
Used.
Every school building in Minneapolis will
be ready for occupancy on the first day of
school, with the possible exceptions of the
Adams and Emerson, and both of these
can be used in part. It is very likely
that several rooms on the second floor of
the Adams school will be ready to receive
children next Thursday, and certainly by
Tuesday, Sept. g. The entire building will
be completed by Sept. Is.
Only three rooms in the Emerson school
are closed as a result of the storm, and
these will probably not be repaired before
the latter part of September.
