Openinu of Henderson Graded Schools
Monday, September nth, 1905.

1t is very important that all pupils be
present at the opening of the term. Lost
time at the beginning will affect the
progress and thoroughness OF the pupil s
Rotations and examinations during the
whole year. The pupil will he discour-
aged and the teacher will be hampered
from the disjointed conditions which will
necessarily exist if part of the lessons and
teaching have been passed over before
the pupil enters the classes. Pupils can
not as a rule do the work of nine
months term in five or six months.
Promotions depend upon efficiency and
not upon the closing of a school year.
The schools will DE opened in the old

Advertising is Business Information

AS an exchange APPLY says, when
one wants a particular commodity
one is much gratified to come upon
an advertisement telling where it may
be had, what it will cost and other
facts about it, The information is
in the nature of news, which is more
important to the person interested
than data concerning the cession of
Sakhalin or the status of the Equita-

this amending hunger for store news

While the fact that there was again today

the cause of much speculation and consider

The death of Sister Mary of st. Celina at

COMPLETION OF HOSPITAL
Work on MethOdists' Building VIII
BE Resumed and Institution
opened in spring.

Work will be resumed soon on the Meth
odist hospital at Thirty-sixth and Cunning
streets, and 1t is expected TO have 1t ready
for patients by spring The decision was
made by the board Of directors of the
hospital at meeting Tuesday night. 1t
is subject to the approval by mail Of
few Of the fifteen directors. who we're not
present, but there is no doubt as to their
attitude in the matter.
The erection of the main building and
the furnishing and equipment OF it and the
two buildings already completed will in
volve an expenditure Of 100000. About
$4,000 already has been spent in the pur-
chase OF grounds and erection of buildings.
The brilding to be put up this fall will be
four stories and basement, 3Sxs5 feet, with
a hexagonal addition of the same number
Of stories 5Ox50 feet at the widest points
The board Of directors expects to give
orders for structural steel within a few
days, and as soon as that can be secured,
ROCKFORD s. Gould, who have the con-
tract, will begin work.
Operations were temporarily suspended
last fall on account of lack OF funds to
complete the project without entailing too
great a debt on the hospital. With the
money on hand now and that which has
been pledged, the members Of the board
think that the hospital finances are on a
basis sound enough to complete the work.
The boiler house and laundry, two stories
in height and S3x7O feet, is one Of the
finished structures. The other is the
operating pavilion two stories In height,
and 56x47 feet The foundation of the main
building up to the water table was laid
last fall
The hospital is planned with view to
adding wings and ultimately increasing II
to about four times it's original capacity.

dence, 1852 Harvey street, tried to awaken

for which afiiiction 1t is known MIR, Thomp-

1t is stated that Mr.. Thompson retired
Tuesday evening apparently in good health.
He at least was in the best of spirits and
gave no indications Of illness.
He is survived by wife, who is now at
the s.. Bernard hospital in Council Bluffs.
The devotion between husband and wife
was of the strongest character, so much so
that friends spoke of the kindly attentions
showed by Mr. Thompson toward his af-
fiicted wife, whose loss of reason recently
had been the source Of much grief to him.
