Prof. E. F. Miller of Chicago. who
will have charge of the singing, has al
ready arrived. He will meet with
large number of singers for practice
this evening In the First Christian
church at 622 Topeka avenue.
The programme will open with
word picture of the enemy that must
be met and vanquished, giving some
details of his tactics and how he car
ries on his warfare. A very interesting
discussion will come up at three
o'clock on the subject "Our Friends:
Who Are They and How Modified ~
Prof. Crissmans who has been very
active in the Salina campaign, and
Rev. A NJ. Eells of Usage City, who
has had experience in the east, and in
the west as well. with Rev. J. l. Pat

church. who has been engaged with

years, will discuss the question.

much to do with the enemy in Pitts
burg. and Myron A Waterman of

connection with the custer suits in that
city, and John Marshall, who with
force and precision has closed UP the
joints in Winfield will tell of "Our
Foes" and how they may be success

Prof. Miller will do some singing in
the evening and special music will be
rendered by the chorus. Governor E.
w. HOch will deliver the address of
welcome. and the response will be
given by little Rosa Rhodes of Meade
county, daughter of the G. A. R.. who
will speak on behalf of the children of
Kansas.
The address which follows by Rev
Father Clearly of Minneapolis, will be
one of exceeding interest. Father
Cleary being one of the able men of
this country and an orator of unusual
ability and a man to whom too much
credit can not be given for the recent
Sunday closing in Minneapolis.
The delegates have already begun
to arrive and it is expected by tomor-
hundred in the city. The union ex-
poets to add to its force and increase
its vigorous campaign in press and
pulpit, and especially in the work of
law enforcement. Much advanced
ground has been occupied and many
victories have been recorded which
will be related at the convention.

SANTA MONICA

The need for two additional school
house buildings as well as modern
structure and equipment to replace the
wornout building and antiquated fa-
cilities on Sixth street caused the
Woman's club to bring the matter to
the attention Of the board Of educa-
ton with the result that a $6000o
school bond election has been called
for May 2. At the present time there
are three new school houses in course
of construction and with the further
contemplated facilities Santa Monica
will be adequately equipped for any
emergency. The Santa Monica Land and
Water company has donated site in
Irwin Heights for one of the pro-
posed structures and the other is
planned for the Sierra Heights section.

Building at Ocean Park

To keep apace with the times, to be
up-to-date and to encourage all new en-
terprises that knock at Long Beach's
door for admittance Is the chief reason
of this seaside city's rapid growth and
advancement The latest large build
ing for which contracts have all been
let and the foundation now being laid
is an immense skating rink. The Strand
Investment company, with a capital of
$4,000 fully subscribed, is behind the
enterprise. Such men of sterling char
acter and integrity as w. H. Buffers,
the newly elected president; ]. NJ Par
sell, vice president; A. M. Goodhue, Sec
retary and treasurer, including the
board of directors, B. II. Paul, John
DAILY, j. w. Jones, Charles Malcom, A.
M. Goodhue and VIM. H. Buffers, speak
well of the solidity of this big under
taking. The auditing committee is
composed of j. w. Jones, Charles NAL
com and Il. II. Paul. The architects,
Austin &s Broun, have designed mis-
sion style building 73 feet wide by 232
feet long.
Size of Building
The building will be As feet high with
q semi-circular roof, the front will be
plastered with rustic sides and rear. A
balcony will extend around the inte-
rior, but the front will contain two, and
are so arranged as to permit of double
boxes, one of which in all probability
will be devoted to a gentlemen's smok-
ing room. The bandstand which will
be work of art, and in finish and de-
sign harmonize with the interior deco
rations, will be at the rear end of this
huge building and near it a number Of
boxes and lockers will be arranged. The
floor will be of maple and highly pol
ished. 1t is the intention of the board
of directors to make this rink the fin
est in the, west in appointment and
furnishings, and if money can do it, it
will be done. The rink will be located
facing 80 feet on Ocean avenue and eX-
tending 232 feet west on Locust street,
and when completed the cost for lot
and building will be close to the $50,000
mark. Arrangements are being made
to have the grand opening occur June
/, and then Long Beach will be in the
dizzy whirl of the latest fad that is
now the great society sport from Maine
to California.
