WOULD INCLUDE LIBRARY
IN CITY HALL BUILDING
NORTH SIDE CITIZENS SUGGEST
NEW PLANS
Adverse Decision by Judge Trask in
Central Park Case Raises Hopes of
Those Who Would Have Municipal
Ediflce Erected on Free Site

With the announcement that Judge
Trask has decided that the city has
no right to build public library in
Central park. the promoters of the new
municipal building scheme believe they
have a strong argument in their favor.
Their plan now Is to erect a new build
ing and make 1t of sufficient size to
accommodate the library.
This plan does not meet with Libra
rian Lummis' expressed ideas. Before
Judge Trask handed down his decision
on the Central park proposition Mr.
Lummis said that he had plan for
building the library in Central park
whereby not a single tree nor object
of natural beauty would be sacrificed.
When he was Informed Of the decision
of Judge Trask he stated that the only
method to pursue now would be to get
together and find another site.
The library now IS crowded and the
need of more room is being keenly felt
every day. All the library directors,
as we'll as Mr.. Lummis, believe a new
library building should be erected and
they favor a separate building, to be
located as near the center OF the busi-
ness district as is feasible.

FIREMAN FALLS; BREAKS ARM
Richard HamIey Of Engine Company
No. g Hurt While at Work
IN Rnnf

While fighting a small blaze on the
roof of dwelling at 72O South Broad
way last night Richard A. Hamley,
a hoseman for engine company No. 8,
slipped on the wet shingles and fell
to the ground a distance of twenty
feet, sustaining a broken arm and a
bruised side as a result of the fall.
The fire was discovered in the kitchen
of the dwelling, which was occupied by
Mrs Georgia M. Murray, scalp spec
ialist, about 10 o'clock. Several COM
panies responded to the alarm and the
blaze was quickly checked.
Hamley was sent to the roof above
the kitchen and ordered to chop a hole
through to the wall beams. He had
just completed his work and was about
to descend when he slipped and fell to
the ground. He was attended at the re-
ceiving hospital.
The amount of damage by the fire is
estimated at $500.

CITY HALL TOO SMALL;
DEPARTMENTS MOVE AWAY
OFFICERS ARE FORCED TO SEEK
OTHER QUARTERS
Present Building Is Inadequate to Ac-
commodate Municipal Servants and
Electrical Inspector Beecher Is
Housed in Copp Building

Chief of Electrical Inspectors H. N.
rorters of the new city hall idea. Mr..
Beecher, with his corps of assistants,
was compelled to sacrifice his Saturday
half holiday yesterday and gather up
his departmental desks and chairs and
move to the suite of rooms 222 Copp
building, that has been rented by the
city for use by his department.
The office of the building superinten-
dent, where the electrical inspection de-
partment has been stationed, has be-
come SO crowded lately that the clerks
have touched elbows while working on
their books, and with additions to the
plumbing inspectors force, some one
had to get out. The electrical inspec-
tion department was made the sacrifl-
cial lamb and the rooms in the Copp
building were engaged for it's use.
Favors New Hall
"a new city hall building should be
erected where we can all be together"
said Mr.. Beeeher yesterday. This
business of scattering the departments
all over town is demoralizing. We will
have more room in the Copp building
and with the rapid increase in our work
the room is badly needed.
This month has been the busiest we
have had in the history of the depart
ment. We issued 1884 permits in Sep
+o-,boo o,,d +Iis ,,,aons ,,aorI1y onnn A.,
spections, as we always inspect at
least twice and sometimes three. times.
"It has required all the force to ham
die the business in spite of the fact
that an additional inspector was added
to the force a couple of months ago."
By heroic efforts late last night and
today the department expects
to be in shape to begin business Mon
day morning.

Members of Citizens Committee Go to
Session With "Blood In Their
Eyes," but Depart With
Smiling Faces

The citizens committee from the
schoolless Vernon district went to the
meeting of the board of education yes
terday with blood in their eyes, as
one member expressed it, and a few
moments later filed out of the room
with beaming faces, for their troubles
are now over
The board has placed the whole sub
ject in the hands of the building COM
mittee, with full power to act, and
sent the committee home with the
promise that Vernon Shall have a school
just as soon as it can be built.
The site recommended by the COM
mittee fronts 265 feet on Vernon avenue.
1t is to be leased for the school year,
with option to purchase within six
months for $4,000, and as the terms are
considered reasonable there seems to
be little doubt but that it will be made
the permanent site for the school, at
least this is the opinion of one of the
leading members of the board.
Enrolment 2s,45o
Prof. MonluX reported that the en-
rollment has reached the grand total
of 2S,45O, or nearly $3.50 more than at
the close Of the first week of school last
year.
The teachers committee made the
following recommendations, which were
adopted. That leave Of absence be
granted e. r. Young until November
27, Julia A. Carey until October 16 and
Lillian Williamson from October 2 to

That A. N. Hatherell be elected as

CHURCH SLOW IN
PROHIBITION WORK
REV. S. ]. CARROLL MAKES
ASSERTION
Declares That Licenses to Conduct
Dramshops Should Be Issued
Only in the Depths
of Hades

"There is but one place where a
saloon license should be issued and that
is in the depths of hell" warmly
asserted Rev. S. J. Carroll before "A
small audience last evening on the oc-
easion of conference temperance an
rliversary at Simpson auditorium.
Rev. S. ]. Carnes presided at the
meeting and Rev. G. E. Foster led the
singing.
1.-THE saloon,' said Rev. Mr.. Carroll,
'is the propagating place for gambling,
a hot bed for humanity and the sum-
ming UP of iniquity. No country has a
right to license to barter away the
health and lives of the people.
There's something alarming, as
shown here in such small audience,
OF the lethargy of the church. The
church people are not sufficiently
aroused in the cause Of temperance.
"Tf anything should arise to cause the
death of large number of people the
cause would be removed, but this in
temperance is allowed to continue with
