WESTERN UNIVERSITY
Makes Great Strides. Kansas Legislature ApprOprateS
$35,9OO for Prof. Vernon's School. Many
Improvements Will be Made.

An interview with President w.
T. Vernon Board of Trus-
tees of the State Industrial De-
partment Of Western University
met in Stanley Hall a few days
ago to decide upon plans for ex-
pending the s35,900 appropriated
by the Kansas legislature for the
use of the institution.
Extensive improvements will be
made during the summer. Plans
are being drawn for the compile
ton of Wards Hall and the con-
tract will be let during commence
ment week. In addition to that
a three story trade building will
be erected costing $4,000, the
buildings of the university will be
heated by steam and lighted by
electricity from a central plant,
gymnasiums for each sex will be
provided, and the university will
have a band.
The meeting was attended by
Bishop Grant, l.. w. Keplinger,
Green Keith, Corvine Patterson,
j. r. Ransom and Prof. w. T.
Vernon, president of the univer-
sity. Prof. Vernon said:-
"The progress of our institution
this year has been phenomenal
The present enrolment is 155
The building committee will soon
visit other schools to get ideas for
use in making the improvements.
''In the new $4,000 building
we will place the heavier trades
on the first floor and the lighter
trades for young women on the
second floor. The third floor will
be occupied by large auditorium
We have been handicapped for
several years because of a lack OF
accommodation for crowds at public
exercises. The auditorium will
also provide for our constantly in.
creasing enrolment, as well as
crowds.
"In addition to our present
courses we will teach young men
harness making, shoe making, and
blacksmithing. The young wo.
men will have a diet kitchen and
will be taught cooking according
to the latest improved methods
laundering, millinery and domes
tic science, or practical house
keeping. John Stanton, the state
architect, visited the school last
Saturday and will prepare plans
for the new buildings"
This will give us an institution
calculated to do much good for the
youth of the race.

Mrs. Hattie Ward of San Fran

the late John B. Reinhardt for 90
years withdrew her suit against
the estate of Reinhardt in Judge
Seawells court on the 14th inst.
Her attorney stated that compro-
mise had been reached whereby
for consideration the plaintiff re-
hnquished all claims on the estate.
Mrs. Ward was left $1,000 in the
will, but the smallness Of the be-
quest made her mad and she sued
the estate for claims for services
aggregating nearly $4,000. Rein
