Union, Feb. 16.-Cnion is without a
school building today, as the result of
a fire which destroyed the high school
at 10 o'clock this morning. The gram
mar and primary grades also had quar-
ters in the building, which was six
room brick structure. The loss is $780,
600, and the school district carried in
surance of $500.
Pupils Had Been Dismissed.
Fortunately all the children had been
dismissed after school convened this
morning, because of the failure of the
heating plant to properly warm the
rooms. This fact probably prevented
a panic, with probable injury to some
Of the students.
About 10 O'clock the roof of the
structure was observed to be ablaze
and before the fire company reached
the scene the fire had gained such
Roadway that the building was Quilted
before the flames We're controlled. The
structure was completely ruined and
will have to be rebuilt entire.
Loss is $4,000.
While the building was not new. it
was a substantial brick structure. The
older portion was erected in 1876, and
ten years ago a new addition was
built
1t is probable that plans will be
started at once TO rebuild and that
more modern structure will be erected.
1t is thought that school will be re-
sumed in temporary quarters in various
parts Of the town as soon as the nee
essary arrangements can be made.

there has been scramble for the place.
There are two very active candidates
for the place-Carl Skinner, of Clin-
ton, and a son of Ben Salinger. of Car
roll. 1t is announced, however, that
Colonel Bousquet will not make the APP
pointnlent until after the primary cleo
ton.
The office of attorney general is kept
busy Strengthening out the tangles in
the primary election law and its adj
ministration. All sorts of questions
come to the front. In this connection
it is found that there is widespread
misunderstanding of the rotation feat
ure of the law. The rotation for state
offices Is a rotation by countiee, so
that in one county the name Of one
candidate appears first, then in the
next county another, and so on. But
for district and county offices the rota-
ton is by townships and precincts and
is based on an alphabetical list instead
of on a list made up numerically as
in the case of coutnies.
It is probable that none Of the state
officers will go to Washington to assist
in the placing of the Harlan statue in
entirely in the hands of Senator Cum
Minis. No program of speeches will be
arranged, buth this will be deferred I'M
til after the placing of the kirkwood
statue when general eulogies of both

ators.

cause much trouble 10 very many OF

relating to proper administration Of
city affairs, and moral questions have
cut little figure. 1t is hard for some
OF the candidates to see how any issue

the Barber Mr.. Forsen appeared to ex-
cellent advantage, probably to better ad-
vantage than previously in New York

fine regard for phrase, besides bringing
out vividly the innate cyncism of the
character.
Nine. de Pasquali was, perhaps unex-
pectedly successful as Rosina, infusing
the part with life and fun and singing it
with considerable skill. Mr. Bonci, as
D'Almaviva; Mr.. de Segurola, as Basilio,
and Mr.. Pini-Corsi as DR.. Bartolo, re-
peated their we'll known impersonations.
In the evening Verdis Aida" was sung
under the inimitable leadership of Arturo
Toscanini. Mr.. Slezak was a magnificent
looking Rhadames, and Nine. Destinn gave
TO Aida all the beauty of her splendid
voice. There was new Amonasro In Mr.
Dinh Gilly, who again showed his excel
lent artistic calibre, singing with fine tone
and acting with barbaric force. The Am
neris was Mile. Flahaut.

voted to the oft sung Tales of Hoffman," !"

tion and Mr. Dalmores as Hoffman,. In the
