The old frame building, which is now
serving as a school, is entirely in
adequate for the large attendance and
to near the stree car racks which keeps
the pupils from their studies.
The site for this new building will
be chosen within a few days and work

OFFICIALS VISIT CITY
Chicago Men Watch Work
on Railway improvements
at Gary Yesterday.

A number Of prominent Lake Shore
and c.. l. S. & E. officials were in Gary
yesterday took over the elevations OF
tracks which are now practically COM
pleted and to see the work which has
been done on the new depot. Most OF
them came to Chicago and were shown
about the scene of operations by the
local officials. All of the party had
lunch at the Gary hotel and spent a
little time looking about the city.
1t is not known whether or not the
visit of the officials had any special
import other than to get a general
idea of how the work in this city has
progressed. Among those here were:
General Superintendent J. Kirk of the
c.. L. S. & e. after whom the Kirk
yards were named; J. Reynold, one of
the head engineers and other notables.
The full party was as follows: A. ].

GUN CLUB WON'T
DEED THE COUNTY
Bridge Across the Calumet
at Toleston is Held up
by Millionaires.
MUCH FEELING STIRRED up
Gary Business Men Righteously
Angry at Attitude of Toles-
ton Gun Club.

All that is now holding up the con-
struction of the bridge across the Lit
tie Calumet river for which the county
council recently appropriated $4,000,
is a little strip of land 500 feet in
length just north Of the bridge which
the Toleston Gun club refuses to deed
to the county. They are the only ones
who refuse to give the land to the
county for the widening of the street
and their action is the subject of wide
condemnation on the part of all the
business men in the city.
Broadway To BE Widened.
In order to widen the bridge it was
found necessary to widen Broadway
south of the bridge, and ali of the
property owners in order to have this
done were willing TO give the neces-
sary strip off from their land. When
the Toleston Gun club was approached
on this subject, however. they refused
to give anything without remuneration.
Now the appropriation stands idle be-
cause of their action. In the rainy
season the Calumet overhows and
makes access to the city an impossi-
bility 70 the south end. Every minute
that the Toleston Gun club hangs on
this important move they are doing an
injustice to the business men in Gary
and particularly the real estate men
who have holdings in that end.
Time Can't Bring EN- To.
One of the hardest boosters of the
bridge proposition. T. W. EngIehardt,
said yesterday that everything had
been done to bring the club to time but
| that they had refused to consider any
thing where the giving of the land away
was involved

GenerulD Demand

Of the Well Informed of the World has
always been for a simple, pleasant and
efficient liquid laxative remedy Of known
value; q laxative which physicians could
sanction for family use because its COM
ponent parts are known to them to be
wholesome and truly beneficial in effect,
acceptable to the system and gentle, yet
prompt, in action.
In supplying that demand with its ex-
cellent combination of Syrup Of Figs and
Elixir OF SIENNA, the California Fig Syrup
Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies
On the merits Of the laxative for its remark
able success.
That is one Of many reasons why
Syrup of Figs and Elixir of SIENNA is given
the preference by the Well Informed.
To get its beneficial effects always buy
the genuine-manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale
by all leading druggists. Price fifty cents

~skYscRAPERs OF ROME.
Ancient Regulations Regarding tho
Height Of Tenements and Palaces.

Ancient Regulations Regarding tho
Height Of Tenements and Palaces.
THE 'skyscraper is no modern in.
vention," says a St. Louis architect,
well read in the history Of his profess
sion. "In all the ancient cities where
brick or stone was available high
houses within the walls of the city
we're very numerous because OF the
lack Of ground space for building.
In the days Of Augustus the tene-
ment houses In Rome became so high
as to be dangerous and laws were
passed condemning a number of ten
ement rows and ordering them to be
taken down, while at the same time
q law was enacted limiting the height
of all future tenements to 100 feet.
For palaces and public buildings
there Vas nj limit.
After the burning of the city in
Nero's time the streets, which before
we're no wider than Jul alleys, were
made broader; some of them, through
the business part Of the city, were
forty feet Wide. and some of the great
thoroughfares were sixty.
1.-THE tenement height was lowered
to eighty feet. and as a consequence
the city spread far beyond its walls.
The average height of a ceiling in a
Roman tenement was a little over
five feet; the windows were open
holes in the wall. stopped in cold
weather with board shutters. So the
worst modern tenement Is a palace
compared with the s~kyscraper home
of the pool when the empire vas at
its best.

Price Of Wives.

Wives are still obtained by purchase
in some parts Of Russia. In the dis.
trict Of Kamyshin, on the Volga, for
example. this is practically the only
way in which marriages are brought
about. The price Of a pretty girl from
a we'l-to-do family ranges from 800
to 5000, and in special cases a much
higher sum Is obtained. In villages
the lowest price Is about $25.
