as an addition to the present large

given over to the clerical staff. They
will be equipped with desks for 1000
clerks.
For the purpose of ventilation and
additional light the plans provide for a
court running between the present
building north of Bank street and the

second story and run up to the top.
The contracts call for the completion
of the extension next May, and it Is
probable that the outside shell will be
finished by the beginning of next win
ter. There will be an entrance in Bank
and an entrance in Academy street,
which will meet in a general corridor
running the width of the building, and
one on Broad street.

HIS TALE OF HARD LUCK
GETS HIM HIS RELEASE.
George Lakes Story Touches
Judges Heart.

When George Lake, of II Hunter
street, was arraigned in the First Grim
inal Court today he related a tale of
woe that procured his discharge on the
accusation of disorderly conduct that
had been lodged against him by his
wife. Lakes father died last Wednes-.
day. and. getting permission to remain
away from his work until after the
funeral, he claims to have gone to his
home for the purpose of changing his
clothes. He alleges that he was refused
admission to the house, because of a
dispute he had had with his wife, and
that as a consequence he was obliged
to attend the funeral of his father in
his working clothes.
His wife failed TO appear today to
press the complaint. and as a conse-
quence he was discharged. His wife
appeared in the First Precinct station
Wednesday and swore out a warrant
Tor his arrest. Hearing that such a
warrant had been issued, Lake gave
himself up at the station house last
night, and spent the night in a cell as a
consequence.
