Tuscaloosa, February 26.-(Special.)- l. Mayor ". M. Faulk Is in receipt of the following information from Representa- tive J. H. Bankhead In regard to our public building
 Replying to your letter of the 18th inst. ill which you inquire as to the prospects for beginning work on the government building In Tuscaloosa I beg to say that I called today at the office of the super vising architect to ascertain what pro- gress was being made I was told that a sketch for the building would be sub mtted next month, and that soon there after complete and detailed plans and specifications would be made and ap- proved, whereupon the department would call for bids. 1t Is estimated that it will take until June 1 to complete this prelim- mary work and advertise for bids, and that work will begin promptly upon the acceptahce of bid for the construction
 "The department Is pursuing the policy of first letting contracts for extensions to buildings already erected before taking up those in the class like Tuscaloosa, where the location is secured, but a building tOlllpltle IS 10 pc eIeCIeu. on dCCOhll Ol the large number of items in the last public building bill, there will be some necessary delay in letting out the con tracts for construction"
 This indicates that Congressman Bank head is giving bur interest at Washington his usual prompt and careful attention
 Colonial Danes Meet.
 ha of Colonial Danes at Mobile this year it was decided that $50 would be given toward erecting boulder at Tuscaloosa In membrance of the Indian Chief Tuscaloosa, for whom the city is named. A condition was that the citizen and members of the Civic Inn provement society would arrange and beautify a suitable spot on which to erect this boulder. The Ladies having this in charge contemplate erecting the monu- ment on a part of the grounds of the pub lie schools, which have already been very much beautihed through their efforts. Tuscaloosa people generally appreciate this liberal offer on the part of the Colon ial Danes.
 Dr. B. r. Giles and Miss Bullock of the Central college faculty have just returned from Selma, where they went to be pres ent at the marriage of Miss Evelyn Daniel to MT. T. l.. Nichols of that city. Miss Daniel is most pleasantly remembered here, where she was a bright pupil and gifted musician at the Central college for several years.
 A very enjoyable musical recital was rendered at the Central college tonight by the pupils in vocal and plano. The pro gramme included a number of both beau- tiful and difficult numbers, and the pleas ing manner in which they were rendered showed the competent training of the young ladies in both departments.
