Of the Burlington Commercial club, in

IL note what you say in regard To
the difficulties which have arisen with
reference TO the state fair project, but
it seems to me that they will pretty
much settle themselves, il the first S2O,-

rest Of it will come OF itself If any is
needed beyond $4,000. My own no.
tion would be that the grounds them
selves might perhaps be mortgAged, and
then the parties purchasing them might
lease them to the commission for a peril
cd Of years, with the privilege IF inu-
chase, the amount TO be paid on the lease
being sufficient to pay the interest on the
mortgage. There is no question but that
the fair would stay wherever it ID once
started.
Il do not know how you are getting
on with the subscriptions, but hope
you win succeed in raising the $4,000.
and that You viii let Mr.. Whitney know
the result before he comes to the meet
ing Of the commission next Friday at

we would meet for the purpose Of look.

CROSBY HIGH SCHOOL
Superintendent Tinker Suggests
 Way 10 Improve Buildinge

In a communication to the board of education last evening, Superin- tendent of Schools Tinker said the time is past for postponing the build. ing of large addition to the Crosby High school and that far from being the institution that it ought to be it is far away behind the times owing to its cramped accommoda' tions. The communication in full | follows:
 To the Board of Education:
 Gentlemen: I would submit the following report as to the existing conditions in the Crosby High schoo and submit suggestions as to the best way of providing for the present number of students and for the flu ture growth of this institution. The building as originally planned con- tains ten class rooms each of which accommodates forty-nine pupils The growth of the school within re. cent years has been so rapid that many other rooms which should have been left for their designed uses have been equipped for school room purposes, for which use some of these rooms are i'll adapted. One large recitation room has been made into school room; the school library has been scattered in the various rooms and this room is now used for class room; two large basement rooms which were intended for recre- ation rooms are now used for recita- tion rooms, in one of which rooms it has been necessary to use the cleo tric lights nearly every day. Thus a building planned to accommodate 490 pupils has had crowded into it 630.
 With further crowding it will be too much to expect that the present standing of the school can be main tained. Despite overcrowding and handicaps due to the lack of the best possible arrangement, the school work has been of a steadily rising excellence and at the present time, along the lines offered, is credit to the community. Within it's limited scope the school is doing all that it can do for it's pupils, but it seems to me that in the consideration, of in- creased accommodations the ques- tion of a broader curriculum and consequently greater usefulness, ought to be considered.
 We lose more than 100 pupils every year because there is no phase of our work that appeals either to them or their parents. I believe that if we had strong course in manual or technical training, in- cluding domestic science, sewing, etc, for the young ladies, we could in few years increase the attend ance to at least 900 pupils.
 I certainly feel that the~~city is not giving our students all of the advantages that they have a right to expect. Taking the year 1905, the last for which I have reports, I find that the New Haven high school reg istered 1,746 pupils, Hartford high school 1,13S pupils, while Water bury registered only 492. Now these figures are all out of proportion to the difference in population and is due to the fact that Hartford and New Haven offer to the student an

BOARD OF EDUCATION
Bad Application For Night School
 in DUggan Building.

The board of education held meet ing last evening, Vice Chairman J. J. Mcdonald presiding. The project to build another school house in place of the present Lincoln building on Sperry street was discussed ill con versational manner. One member re- ported that the Plume property, io- cated on the corner of Johnson ave- hue and Waterville streets would make an excellent site. It would cost $40,000, but the board thought it could be bought for less than that and also that any school building site should not cost more than $25,000 for the simple reason that to put any more money into such a proposition would make it impossible to build or furnish an adequate building.
 A cross walk from the central en- trance to the Webster school was rec commended and application for posi- tions as grade teachers were received from Miss Nina F. Bigelow and Miss Anna F. Whalen, both out of town young women. They were referred to the committee on teachers for the pro- tection of local applicants.
 The resignation of Miss Catherine Bohan of the Croft school was ac- cepted.
 A petition to open a night school in the Duggan school house was referred to the committee on teachers. Tie petition was given a favorable dis cussion, it being said that hundreds of young men and women who work in the shops till 6 o'clock find it ab- solutely impossible to attend the school in the School street building. The signers to the petition numbered about 100 and were all Poles and Lithuanians.
 The Granite Construction company, the contractors of the Driggs school addition applied for an extension of time to complete the job, having ex- perlenced several delays during the summer on account of lack of mater ial. The matter was left over to the next meeting. The time limit for the contract expires on November 15.

Coat, out of Ida Ledford. Both sire
and dam were famous race horses, and

months of congestion would end and the
