meeting for the Bridge school district
IN the sehoolhouse on Monday oven
ing. the legal voters of the district di-
rected and authorized some alterations
IN the building, which it is expected

the seats in the room being taken and

ed the meeting to order shortly after
o'clock and asked for nominations

elected ard took the chair, and Clerk
Arthur NJ. Cebleigh read the warning,
which stated that the special meeting
was called to relieve the congestion at
the school building and to transact any
other business relating to the district.
In answer to a question from the
house, Principal Irving E. Elmer and
Committeeman Davis furnished figures,
stating that Lis had been the average
attendance, and by rooms from the
highest grade down it had been 10, Fl.
20, ~, 25 and %.
No Need of New Site.
Daniel Lynch took the floor and
spoke of a new schoolhouse meaning
from $4,000 to 10000 to the district,
while from $1,000 to $4,000 in repairs
would put it in modern shape and
there was no need of buying a new
site.
Committeeman Davis was asked to
explain what the suggestion was that
was to be offered, and he said that the
congestion had been in the primary de-
partment, where there had been so
many children that they had not all
been able to attend two sessions day.
He felt the board of education had
been fair with the districts and the plan
which had Teen arrived at was to make
a recitation room where, the primary
department has been Mr.. Davis
claimed that it was taking eleven years
to graduate the children from this
school, where it ought to take only
nine.
Not Asking for New Building.
Acting School Visitor Frank II. Foss
was present, and upon a suggestion
from Principal Elmer he addressed the
meeting making a clear statement of
the way the town school boardl ooked
upon conditions at the school. He sale
it was their purpose to rearrange the
grades, putting three grades in the SEN
iOr room, with two teachers for them,
and it was the cheapest thing to do to
build a covered stairway from the sem
ior room down to the primary room.
This would then be Principal Elmer's
would be moved into the room in Bill
lings'> hall. This would enable the
children to get through as they did in
other districts and would enable all
the young children to come to school
at the same time.

ADDITION TO REAR
OF WAUREGAN HOUSE.
Handsome New Grill Room for Men
Will Replace Two Small Ones-Five
Rooms for Displaying Samples.

The Parker Davenport company is to
build a $4,000 addition to their hotel,
the Wauregan house, in this city, the
contract for which work having been
let on Monday morning, and it will pe
started at once. The addition will be
at the back of the hotel. 1t will be
25x88 and of brick, three stories in
height.
The building will be 25x1s in the
basement, which section runs up three
stories high, but on the foor coree-
spending to the street level the add
ton will be much longer and portion
of this will be supported on spilins.
In the basement the room will be used
for the storage of coal. On the main
floor the two present rooms of the
the addition will permit the charging
of the grill to 25x59, making a hand
some new department of the hotel.
There will also be two small private
dining rooms on that floor 12X14 in
size. Another important improvement
will be the addition of three new sam
pie rooms for the display of goods by
drummers, which will make five in all
at the hotel. This will bring them on
the main floor and obviate the neees-
sity of carrying the heavy trunks to
the second floor. On the top floor of
the addition the room will be used for
the keeping of provisions.
The grill room will be finished with a,
rathskeller effect with a wainscotting
about six feet high, red tile floor and
loaded glass windows. There. will he
wood beams and cornices in the ceiling
and the room will be lighted by cleo
tricity. 1t will be done in chestnut
and stained it is thought a silver
gray. There will be five hooks in the
grill with settle effect and stationary
tables between. The entrance to the
grill will be in the center of the roor1
and when completed it will be one of
the handsomest in the state.
This work is the forerunner of more
extensive changes ON the main floor
which it is probable will be taken up
next spring. In this change the re-
building of the lobby and Broadway
entrance and Office section is conten-
plated

Several Days Before The Expedition
Will Leave Italy.

London. Oct. 3.-The lapse of an
other day leaves the Turco-I Italian wal
without further development. There Is
no confirmation of the alleged bonn
bardment of Tripoli, which appears
unlikely to have been begun, as it will
yet be several days before the ex-
peditionary force is ready to leave
Italian shores.
Apparently the italian government
is apprehensive that the Turkish fleet
may he able to hamper the passage of
the transports and great precautions
are being taken. The expedition will be
started from ports in two seas, rather
than from south Italy and Sicily, in
order to minimize that danger, and
evidently Italy is in no hurry to get
the expedition on the way
Another reason for the delay of war
like operations is the continuance of
the Turkish cabinet crises. Clearly the
Old ministers are remaining in office
against their Will and are unable ia

line OF action. 1t is even reported thai
