got out of order and the boat came

BIG MARKET
TO BE BUILT
ON SMITH ST.

A large, new market building will
be erected on Smith street. The
plans are being rapidly completed
and will be placed In the hands of
contractors for estimates In a few
days. The building is to be located
on the Boynton property. The pro-
jectors have had the idea under con-
sideration for some time and with
the acquisition of the old Kempson
property. which they recently pur-
chased, the scheme has become fea-
sible. John Noble Pierson & Son
have been selected as the architects
and they have designs for a hand
some, commodious structure.
The entire building covers nearly
half an acre 1t contains, besides
seventy-five booths and stalls. two
stores, restaurant retiring room g.,
ladies tea room, and superinten-
dents Office.
The building, which has the mean
dimensions of 160 feet by ITO feet
with q 80 feet by 100 feet extension,
is to be as nearly freproof con-
struction as possible to make 1t. The
walls are to be brick or partition
block, the roofs will be reinforced
concrete or steel. The floors will be
concrete throughout. There is to be
two entrances, the main entrances
on Smith street, and will be of terra
Gotta and pressed brick, two stories
high. BY an ingenious arrangement
of lights the outlines of the build
ing will be strongly marked after
dark and will be part of the pro-
posed illumination of Smith street.
The main entrance will be strikingly
handsome in a style of architecture
not in use in Perth Am boy. Room
for this will be made by tearing
down two of the old buildings. There
will be two double doors in this en-
trance. On either side will be a
store opening to the street and to
the market The other entrance
will be on State street, and will be
for the accommodation Of farmers
or people driving in from the coun-
try. Sheds will be provided.
It is the intention of the pro1ec-
tors to have a main building for Pc
destrians only. Large stalls are run
throughout the entire length. The
stalls are to be on either side of the
aisles in rows and are arranged TO
suit the demands Of the merchants.
One eommendable feature of the
layout is that all stalls are arranged
so that they demand attention from
everyone passing through the build
ing. The different marketmen Will
be arranged in sections. Gas ana
electric lights and steamheatfng
plant are part of the design. A re-
frigerating plant is to be used for
storage purposes. Each booth Will
be connected with the private
switchboard for telephone. Market
lists will be prepared each week.
Delivery wagons will be furnished.
The idea is a large one and every
detail has been thoroughly worked
out. Customers will be given large
choice in purchasing. Several of
the largest merchants in town have
approved the scheme and special
provision has been made for their
accommodation.
The building has been treated
with proper consideration for all de
mands as to light, ventilation, fire
protection and convenience to the
public. Booths and stalls are to be
supplied from a large store room
and strict sanitary code will be en-
forced.

WOULD MAKE A
WHITE WAY0n!
SMITHSTREET

Plans to make Smith street, between
State and High streets "a 'Great White
Way similar to the one started in
Newark recently, are being formulated.
John K. Sheehy, member of the firm
Of Cannon & Sheehy, is the leader In
the idea and he has held a number Of
conferences with officials of the Pub
lie Service Corporation. At the pres
ent time his plans are in abeyance,
awaiting an estimate from the light
ing company. Inspector Chandler was
here last week and gave Mr.. Sheehy an
estimate for lighting Smith street from
State street to High street with illum-
mating arcs fifty feet apart all night
long. Mr.. Sheehy and some of the
other merchants in the block do not
favor paying for lighting the street all
night. The merchants would prefer to
burn the lights only until II or 12
o clock at night.
"The Public Service Corporation, -
said one of the merchants this morning,
SIS trying TO cover the whole city with
ares and have merchants and residents
pay" he disapproved Of the sugges-
tion to keep lights burning all night
Mr.. Sheehy says that he proposes to
have this one block, in which he is To-
Gated, lighted first and then merchants
in other sections could follow.
The plan has worked admirably in
Newark, where sections of Broad and
Market streets have literally been made
light as day.
If the plan is adopted by merchants
along Smith street, fancy iron poles,
arch-shaped at the top, will be erected
about fifty feet apart and that section
of Smith street will be illuminated to
perfection.
Mr.. Chandler will probably be here in
day or two with the new estimates.

CHILDREN RUSH FROM SCHOOL 4
AND FALSE ALARM OF FIRE SOUNDS
Pupils in Panic as
Heavv Wind
Blows.

When the fire alarm sounded box "a
at Smith street and Watson avenue at
2.15 clock this afternoon a mild PAN
ic was caused among the pupils In
school No. 4. The alarm sounded just
as small hurricane of wind, hail and
rain swooped down ON the city.
According to Miss A. E. Van Nuiss,
principal of the school, the alarm sound
ed before the excitement in the school
started, while another version is that
an employe at the ear barn, seeing the
pupils running out and crying Fire, -
pulled the box.
Miss Van Nuis said that the recess
was just over and the scholars were
fling up from the court to their
rooms. Suddenly the terrific wind eaus-
ed the court door to blow open and the
hail and rain beat inside. At this in
stant. she says. the bell started to ring
and one of the boys yelled Fire.
This caused no little excitement and
about fifty of the small children ran
to the street.
The fremen were unable to tell who
had turned in the alarm. They found
the box open and, as there was no fre,
returned to their quarters Some OF the
firemen say they saw about 200 children
outside of the school when they arrived.
Storm Fierce One.
The storm, while it lasted, was one of
the fiereest ever seen here and the fire.

drenched before they returned to the
building. They were soon quieted after
the fire alarm ceased ringing.
Along the shore and out on the water
the storm was menace to the safety
of boats. The fremen had hard time
and one fell from the Lincolns' steam
er on State street.

An overheated stove at the home Of
Mrs. Mary Westlake, 12 Maple street,

William Westlake, eighteen years old
son of Mrs. Westlake, was about to
retire when he detected the odor of
smoke. He went into the hall and
found smoke pouring from one of the
lower rooms. He rushed down stairs
and found the woodwork near the stove
on fire. BY that time he was almost
overcome with smoke and his cries
brought help. With the assistance OF
Mr. Lynch and Mr.. Hoos, the blaze was
extinguished.
