school, but was discarded on account Of
its insanitary condition; then it was used
for long while as city pound pen, but
soon abandoned because of its lacking
in sanitary qualities, and finally it was
turned into a fire department station, for
which it has been used for several years.
The place referred to is the building in
which the fire-fghters, horses and appa-
ratus of .Greener station department No
g. are housed at the corner of Third ave.
nue. and Fifteenth street. A motion was
made by Alderman Jack Greener at the
council meeting last night, asking for
unanimous consent instructing the finance
and fire committees of the City Council
to proceed with the construction of new
quarters, a letter from Fire Chief A. V
Bennett urging the construction of a new
building also being introduced. President
Harry Jones told of how a new building
was authorized several years ago. but
that the work had been delayed at the re-
quest of former Mayor Ward, the city be-
ing financially pressed at that time He
urged unanimous consent, which was
granted.
