IN THE PALACE OF THE SHAH.
Combination OF Very Costly Articles
and Trumpery.

anu ifuWpcTy.
The palace of the Shah OF Persia,
according TO Capt. Donald Stuart, In
The Struggle for Persia" Is an APP
palling combination of dinginess and
splendor, of squalor and luxury. One
of the most interesting rooms is that
filled with the portraits of all the mon
archs of Europe. In the next room is
his majesty's writing apparatus. Here
stands globe such as may be seen
In a schooLoom, except that the CONT
nents are made with gems OF different
color, and all the names of rivers are
marked in diamonds. On the walls
a painting by an old master is framed
next to a highly colored advertisement
OF a dealer in fish hooks. The throne
itself is sort of wooden bed, about
9 feet by 6, the woodwork covered
with diamonds, emeralds, rubies and
sapphires, some an inch long. The
value of the whole is estimated rough
ly at million pounds. On the floor of
the throne is a carpet SO thick with
pearls that the texture of the cloth Is
hardly visible, while a huge vase. SET
with turquoises and pearls, stands
side by side with a cheap urn, such az
Is sometimes seen at county fairs.

PLANS FOR
NEW SCHOOL
Will Be Submitted to Board of
Education This Week and
Bids Requested.
STYLE OF THE BUILDING
Special Attention Has Been Given to
Ventilation and Light Of the
Structure.

The board of education has received
word from l. H. and w. NJ Rapp, alt
Las Vegas, architects for the new $685.
900 school building to be erected in
this city. to the effect that the plans
will be completed this week and for
warded to Santa Fe for examination.
The building will be located on block
four Of the Ft. Marcy addition and will
front on Lincoln avenue. The struc-
block, 100 feet back from the avenue,
1870 feet from Federal street and like
distance from Marcy street, and 210
feet from the alley. This leaves a
space at the rear Of the building 210
by 36S feet, which will be converted
into playground and so divided as
to give an equal amount Of space for
girls and boys.
The building will be two and one
half stories in height and from outside
wall to outside wall 80 by 80 feet. The
foundation and basement walls will be
constructed of vitriied brick and the
elevation of red brick. The basement
will consist of two class rooms, toilet
rooms, boiler room. coal bins and other
storage rooms. The first floor will be
made up of four class rooms, with
doors off from rotunda approached
by Railways from the north, east and
south In size the rooms will be 26 by
SO feet and will be provided with war
drobes. The superintendent's Office
will also be on the first floor The
second floor will be similarly arranged
with the exception that a teachers
room will take the place of the super
intendent's office. The rooms on the
second floor will be of the same size
as those on the ground floor The
third floor which will be one-half story
in height, will be used as the assem-
bly, room, with seating capacity OF
400. In providing this room it was the
plan of the board of education to have
a room in which public meetings could
be held and also the school literary
and opening exercises.
A feature of the building is the fact
that light and ventilation have been
given particular attention. The class
rooms will be so arranged that the
light will come in from the back and
left side of the pupils, thus doing away
with any possibility of injury to the
vision. The ventilation has been
equally we'll arranged, and by the men,
bers of the board of education and
others who have taken an interest IN
the matter, is believed to be as per-
feet as could be wished for. The
building will be heated throughout by
steam.
AS soon as the plans are received
by the board, that body will advertise
for bids, and will make every effort
to close up contracts as soon as pos
sible. 1t is hoped to have the building
completed by the first of the coming
wear.

London, July 19.-In British official

are regarded as very grave interna.

is considering course to pursue. The
British law officers acknowledge
the right of the Russians to seize and
detain mails, provided only official
communications are taken, but they
take most serious view of the two
Russian ships patrolling the Red Sea,
and if any official protest ensues it
will be chiefly in regard to the pas

that there is absolutely no truth in the
story circulated the United States
by news agency that Great Britain
has informed Germany of the dispatch
of the British fleet to Alexandria with

illegalities in the Red Sea. 1t was
added that the movements of the Brit

Japanese Capture Fort.
N Che Foo, July ia junk with Rus
SLAMS and fifty Chinese on board ar
rived this afternoon from Port Arthur.
The Chinese say that on July 18th and
52th the Japanese captured and occu-
Yied, with four thousand men, one of
the eastern forts near Port Arthur. Be
fore reinforcements arrived the Rus
SLAMS cut off four thousand troops in
the forts and exploded the mines,
which resulted in the killing of every
soldier there.
The Chinese also report that the
night before they left Port Arthur the
Russian torpedo boat sank mer-
chant ship, mistaking it for a Japanese
transport. Many Chinese were on
board and all passengers were
drowned. If this story is true, the
steamer in question is probably the

hours overdue from New Chwang and
was reported as having struck mine.
