The work on the Merrill Institute
 building is progressing very rapidly and it is thought that it will be fin ished in at least three months, while the contract allows four for the com pletion of the work. The Prather Con-
 struction Company. of Fort Smith, has the contract, and is employing a large number of laborers in order that the jobs may be finished quickly. The whole lower floor will have a tile flooring, as we'll as tile floor for the swimming pool which at first was in tended to be foored with cement AL so a large marble staircase will lead from the lobby up to the second floor and game room.
 Over the swimming pool will be made another floor, inserted, so to speak, between the first and second floors. On this floor will be game room of the same size as the swim ming pool and bath rooms combined, as large and elaborately fitted game room as is liable to be found in any Southern headquarters. All kinds of games will be played here, everything from checkers to billiards and pool. This entire floor will be devoted to the game room alone.
 The lobby on the first floor will oc- cupy the whole part of the floor not occupied by the natatorium and bath rooms. This is the entire space for merly occupied by the barber shop and old office.
 On what is now the second floor there will be offices for the board of directors, and for other officers of the Association. Where the auditorium now is there will be a large gynasium

Church-Building Commit tee is Active and Plans and Specifications Are Being Prepared.
OLD CHURCH BURNED

The trustees and building commit tee of Carr Memorial church have de- cided upon the plans of their new church building which is to be erect ed at the corner of East Sixth avenue and Dakota street and which is to take the place of the old Carr Memo rial church which was destroyed by fire February 13. J. w. Dutton, the local architect, is now drawing the plans and specifications, and in few days the building committee will be '1ready to advertise for bids. The house is to be a neat brick, built on modern plans, with auditorium, Sun day schoo1 room, ladies' par1or and preachers study. Many subscriptions have been secured by the members of the soliciting committe and ye they are not more than half through their work, and it is to be hoped that by the time the canvas is completed enough will have been secured to pay for the new building.
 The people in the East End are greatly interested in the movement and ask the cooperation and help of all and further say as the building is to be in memory of that grand and good man, Reverend John F. Carr, who had so many friends, it is to be hoped that all assist in erecting this suitable monument to his memory.

HON T & COMPANY '?@ sesyed %sst Ave

One feature of this gymnasium will be that it will be free from posts, as the galleries will be suspended by steel posts from above
 On the two higher floors, for an. other floor will be added, the Y. M. .. A. dormitory will be situated. Each of the beds will be in separate rooms, this also being a new feature. Also the number of beds will be greatly increased, as the other departments of the Y. M. c. A. must necessarily grow with the membership. . On the side of the swimming pool On the ground floor marble shower baths will be placed, in fact the whole inside of the natatorium will be built of marble and tiling. The reason for making the bottom of the pool of til- ing is because it will be so much easier to keep clean. Water will con stantly be flowing through the pool. instead of having the water changed at stated intervals as was at first in- tended.
 To keep up this large Y. M. c. A. the force will be practically doubled, and several well-known Y. M. C. A. workers will be brought here from other cities The Y. M C. A. here is one of the large ones in the United
 States. ranking fourth among the railroad associations.
