Special 10 THE EVENING JOURNAL.
DOVER, Del. oct. 15.-The State House
building commission made a decided
change in its program at its mseting here
yesterday afternoon. The advocates Of
a new administration building to cost all
of the S62. 500 appropriation won out, and
the scheme to restore" the Old state
House by changing IL back TO its colonial
appearance, with hip roof and massive
windows. was temporarily abandoned.
The commission decided definitely upon
its plans and instructed the architect 10
prepare all final drawings and specifica-
tions and blank proposals in time for a
meeting Of the commission early in No
vember, when bids viii be asked for.
There was mistaken apprehension
about the so-caled restoration of the
state House. Some Of the commission
thought that the law required this to be
done and a new ireproof library TO be
built al within the bounds OF S625o0. The
law. however. makes no provision on COM
mand whatever about the exterior Of the
State House, but merely provides for such
changes as will give more room and tend
to facilitate the business Of the state Of
fees. This will now he done.
The interior alterations TO the present
state House, too are to be entirely diff
ferent from those first proposed The
commissions final plan provides for the
following new accommodations:
The governor 10 vacate his present Of
fees, and the State Treasurer to va
cate his office
The secretary OF state to move 10 the
north side of the present State House and,
after alterations utilize the entire side
Of the building, even TO the store room
OF the custodian, and the present room
occupied by the staircase. This will give
him vault room. desk room and reception
room enough to provide for years to
come in the care OF the states archives
and the corporation records
The Governor to take the entire south
side Of the present state House, for his
reception and audience rooms and his
private office.
The judiciary and State auditors rooms
TO be vacated and turned into the new
suite for the Governor.
The old State library quarters to be
converted into legislative committee
rooms. reached by a private rear stair
case from the Senate
The new building to consist OF an ad-
ministration building in the front and a
modern library building in the rear.
The new building to occupy the site OF
the old Jump property. its front to be
fifteen feet back from the present build
ing line. with grass plots and cement
walks and coping extending TO the steps.

occupied by the State treasurer, with am

auditor, with ample room for his records

Yes" remarked the st. Paul man
to a friend from Chicago. as he
stood arrayed in his blanket suit and
! adjusted couple Of buckskin chest
! protectors, there is something
about the air in this northwestern
climate which causes person not to
notice the cold. It's extreme dry
ness" he continued, as he drew on
pair OF extra wooden socks, pair
OF Scandinavian sheepskin boots and
some Alaskan overshoes-'its sx-
trsme dryness makes = degree OF
cold, reckoAed by the mercury,
which would be unbearable in
other ATTITUDES, simply withdrawing
here. have suffered more with the
cold in Michigan, for instance he
added, as he drew on pair Of
goatskin leggins, adjusted double
fur cap, and tied on some Esquimax
earmuffs-''in Michigan or Illinois
we will say, or anywhere south Of
or above, than l have here with it at
As to so below. The dryness of our
winter air is certainly remarkable
he went on, as he would couple of
rods of red wooden scarf about his
neck, drew on a fall cloth overcoat,
a winter cloth overcoat, light buff
falo skin overcoat, and heavy
polor bearskin overcoat; mo, if you
have never enjoyed our glorious
Minnesota winter climate with its
dry atmosphere, its bright sunshine,
and invigorating ozone, you would
scarcely believe something l could
J tell you about it.. The air is SO
dry" he continued, as he adjusted
his leather nose protector, drew
down the brim of his cap,"it's so dry
that actually it seems next to impos-
sible to feel the cold att all. We can
scarcely realize in the spring that
we have had winter, owing to the
excess dryness of the atmosphere.
BY the way" he went on, turning to
his wife, "just bring me couple Of
, blankets and those bed quilts and
throw them over my shoulders, and
hand me that muff with The hot
soapstone in it, and now I'll take
pull at this jug of brandy and
whale oil, and then if you'll have the
girl bring me my snow shoes and
iceberg scalingsticks, I'll step over
and see them pry the workmen off
the top of the ice palace, who were
frozen yesterday. tell you we
couldn't be going out this kind of
weather 500 miles further south,
where the air is damp and chilly.
Nothing but our dry air makes it
possible. Chicago Tribune.
