| and too barren to meet the require
ments of the most approved schools,
with ample play grounds and gar
dens.

sell the present grounds ind build
ing and use the proceeds for the

purposes being five per cent. The
present assessed valuation in this
district is $215, 700, a bond issue of

gal limit.

is $1,5O0 and for the two tracts
comprised in the Hackett-Sandwith

Cement Co., was in the city this
week in consultation with Mayor
Capron and Attorney Irwin regard
ing the condemnation proceedings
for right-of-way over the compapy's S
property and as to the publics right
to Trout lake, the hearing Of which
matters are to come before Judge
Joiner next Tuesday. Mr.. George
sought for an agreement to have
the hearing postponed, but as this
would mean months delay, and
as he could give no good reason for
putting it off, it was thought best
to have the city's rights understood.
SO that those in charge would know
as soon as possible what steps should
be taken. So next tuesday the
whole proposition will be gone
over, in order that Judge Joiner
may render a decision in accordance
with the facts. Until then COM
ments are out Of order.
