NEW COLLEGE "PREP"
SCHOOL NEAR THE ~"

Of particular interest to all East
following Monday Professor A. D. Hall
will open a college preparatory school
at the corner Of Fourth street and
Thirteenth Avenue Sc. Professor Hall
has been well known for many years
on the West Side of the river as the
principal of the Minneapolis Classical
School. Boys preparing for any eastern
college have saved time and expense
by going to the Classical school for reg
uIar class work or private tutoring.
Year after year boys have been pre-
pared for West Point, Yale, ETC., and
have always passed their examinations
among the highest. This last year three
pupils Of the school entered for the
West Point competitive examinations
and all were successful.
Another advantage to East Siders
and university students in particular
is the fact that Professor Hall will
organize classes on Sept. 25 to study
the subjects in which most of the uni
versity freshmen are conditioned. There
will be classes in Latin, English. mathe-
MATES and physics, and probably sew
eral others.
The school will offer the regular AGA
demic course and has special advantages
for work in chemistry, manual training
and historical reference reading.
Professor Hall is also widely known
thru his summer travels in the Vel
lowstone Park, in which he has made
several interesting new Hfinds'' and
in which he has obtained some extraor-
dinarily beautiful and rare photo
graphs. s,g

MINNESOTA COLLEGE
HAS FORMAL OPENING

The formal opening Of the Minnesota
college took place Friday evening IN
the new building which was formerly
the Minneapolis academy, at the cor
ner of Harvard and Delaware streets
Sc. All members Of the board of di-
rectors were present and besides a large
number Of new students and friends of
the college. Addresses were made by
Rev. Mr.. .Rafe of Red Wing, and Drs.
T. K. Petrie and D. O.. Stone, business
manager, both Of this city.
Professor Wahlund, principal of the
piano department, gave a most interest
ing lecture and demonstration OF the
Vergil system Of piano playing. This
new system of instruction is a remark
ably fine one, particularly for older
persons, as it is practically the appli-
cation Of psychology and pedagogy. to
piano playing. By this system the tire
some practice is in a large measure re-
deemed from it's mechanical character.
There were several solos by the in
structors of vocal music at the college
and by Mr.. Engstrom and Miss Loe of
Minneapolis.
The second school year Of the Mime
sofa college began Monday under the
best of auspices. The new building has
been renovated from top to bottom and
particular care given to the furnishings
Of the different departments. There
are three separate schools in the col
lege, those of business, music and col
|lege preparatory.

CENTRAL AYE. BANK,
OPENING MONDAY

The new Central Avenue bank, which
was organized only few weeks ago,
will open its doors Monday morning for
business, at 2407 in Tousley block, on
Central avenue NE. The main owners
of this bank have been for some time,
and are still, closely connected with the
Minnesota National bank. The bank
opens with the best of prospects and a
capital Of $4,000.
A. D. Clark, president Of the Mime
sofa National, is to be chairman Of
the board of directors. Mr.. Clark has
been connected with the National bank
for thirty years, and is widely known
because of his real estate interests in
this city and in smaller towns turnout
Iowa and North Dakota. He has also
been for some time interested in sew
eral other prominent banks in this city.
The vice president Of the Minnesota
National, L. S. Williams is to be presi-
dent Of the Central Avenue bank J. d.
Utendorfer, formerly with the First Ma
tional, is vice president, and Martin OF
terness of Willmar, Mimi, has been
chosen as acting cashier.
The other members of the board Of
directors are all well-known business
men of the Fast Side.
The bank s. quarters. which are now
in process of renovation, are seventy
feet in length by twenty feet in width,
and are being fitted entirely with ma
hogany furnishings.
The new undertaking. is in no way a
venture, and promises to be an assured
success from the very start.

NEW PAYING IS
PROGRESSING
OWNERS UNANIMOUS
IN PRAISE OF WORK DONE.
Estimated Cost of Work Along Central
Avenue Is OOO-Threat of Iniunc-
ton by Dissatisfied Owners Not Dan
gerous-Work to Be Finished as Soon
as Possible. .... .#rs

Both upper and lower Central ave-
nues alike, are at present all astir with
big crews of Workmen tearing up the
old pavement and laying the new one.
From the steel-arch bridge to Fourth
street the new curbing has now been
added on the east side of the street, and
as fast as possible the old stone pave
ment is being torn up and drawn away
while the creosote is being laid. Fur
Their up on Central avenue, between
Eighteenth and Twenty-fourth avenues,
other crews of men have begun work,
leveling the sand cushion upon which
they are to place a fve-inch layer Of
concrete, and upon this in turn will be
laid the red metropolitan brick. The
Portland cement, which will add both
to it's smoothness and durability. The
streetcar company has also been at
work laying new ten-inch rails and paw
ing between them with sandstone and
cement, and have carried their work
now as far as Twenty-third avenue.
It is sincerely hoped that: the city
brick pavement up to Twenty ninth
avenue, but it is not probable that the
city can stand this additional outlay,
Few people realize the great expense Of
the work and the materials used in this
way. For instance, the estimated cost
of the creosote paving from the steel
arch bridge to Fourth street, surface
distance of $3.50 square yards, is
$22,95l. The work and material to be
used from Eighteenth to Twenty fourth
avenues, distance Of 14,507 square
yards, is estimated to cost So yard,
making a total Of $29,O34.
It has been intimated lately that
property owners were dissatisfied with
the work and the materials used, and
were likely to ask for an Injunction
against the city. This rumor is almost
too ridiculous to need denying, and can
in fact: be directly traced to certain
East Side owners, Indirectly interested
in delaying the paving.
The fact is that the Norway pine
blocks were unanimously accepted at
an advertised meeting of the Central
avenue property owners, and were de-
cided upon instead of the Georgia pine
blocks because they were proved to be
Lust as good, while there was 16 cents
difference in the price, There is not 8
doubt that the paving, which is SO wei

property owners, and should be to al
Of them, will go directly forward an6

as possible.
