SET A DATE FOR
BUILDING START
Board Decides to Break Ground
for Manual Arts Struc-
ture in April.
ON SITE NORTH OF SCHOOL
Addition to Public School System
viii Cost 500, OOO-EIim-
mate Dead Languages.

A new Manual Arts building is an
assured fact and ground will be
broken the 1st OF April. This was
decided at a special meeting of the
board Of education last night, called
for the purpose of considering rough
plans. Another meeting has been
called for next Thursday night at
which time the board will meet with
the architect who will draw up the
final plans. The tenants, whose
homes are on the site of the new
building, have been ordered to yacate
by March 1st. This site is just
north OF the high school building, on
the northeast corner.
The new building, which is to be
10 feet square, will be three stories
in height. The basement will be on
u foot and a half under ground, SO
that there will be plenty Of light.
FIRST FLOOR PLANS.
On the first floor which is really
the basement will be the printing
room, forge shop. wash and locker
rooms. heating and ventilating rooms
foundry and machine shop.
il had been planned to build q
heating plant in n separate building
just east Of the high school building
but owing 10 the fact that the play
ground Of the Lincoln school is none
too large at the present time. it wai
considered advisable to incorporate
this feature in the manual arts build
ing. Although il has not been def
nately decided, there is stronl
probability that an Independent
lighting system will also be install
ed in the arts building. which will
furnish illumination for that struc
ture and the high school building a
well. The general inside dimension
OF the various rooms and shops will
be 80 x34 feet.
SECOND FLOOR DETAILS.
On the second floor will be tn
mechanical drawing room, office,
dark room for blue printing ant
photography, free hand drawing
room, a stock room in one part o
which will be a dry kiln, a room 70
the saws, iointers, etc, wood sho
and turning room. Instead OF a sol
id wall, the saw room will be sep
arated from the wood shop by
glass partition, so that the instruc
tor while in the wood shop may Loo
into the saw room and keep a clos
check on the same. The wood sho
and turning room will be separate
by a steel curtain, which will enabl

MILLIONS OF SERFS
STARVE IN RUSSIA
Suffering More General Among Peas
ants Than Since the Famine
Of 1891

LondOn.-Famine conditions in
Russia due to the failure of last sum-
mers crops, continue widespread ac-
cording to latest advices received by
the London relief committee, which
has issued an urgent public appeal
for funds. 1t is !conservatively esti
mated that 100000 peasants are
in a state of destitution, and the COM
mittee states that suffering is more
general than in any similar calamity
since the famine of 1891.
"In some of the Bashkir villages" T"
writes one correspondent, where no
relief has yet been supplied, the peas
ants simply lie down on the floors of
their huts and patiently wait for
death"
parents are praying for the death
Of their children so they may not see
their continued sufferings," writes
another. They themselves, are Of
ten tempted to end their own torture
by suicide"
The older peasants declare the COM
mittee have noticed the absence of
help from abroad.
"In 1891" they say, people came
to help us everywhere. even from
America. Where are they now"

flying machines. all in excellent con-
dition and ready to be piloted wher-
ever the patron may direct. Actual
air line transportation may be said
to have begun, as it is possible to hire
a "taxiplane" for a trip anywhere in
the United States.
1T makes no difference where the
passenger wants to go-if its New
York, its all the same-the aviator
will take him, and they'll arrive In
New York, if the machine will get
there" said Manager Adams, in
charge of the flying field I'VE have
plenty of machines and a number
of clever aviators and we'll attempt
to carry any one TO any place they
want to go. It's not generally Known
but it's a fact that we're here and all
ready to serve the public"
There's practically no danger and
why shouldn't one start to New York
in an airship? It couldn't be any
more dangerous than starting TO
Europe in the largest ship afloat Men
have lost their lives only in attempt
ing unusual and record breaking ex-
hibitions, while the long, overland
trips have been marvelously free from
fatal or serious accident"
