bidding FOR THE
NEW Girl School
A. S. Reed & Bro. Co. Sub
mits $4,000 as the
Lowest Price
WILL GET WATER
FROM NAAMAN'S CREEK

Bids have been received for the
erection of the two new cottages for
the Delaware Industrial School for
Girls at their new site In Brandy
wine hundred. The A. S. Reed and
Brother Company OF this city. was
the lowest of seven bidders and their
bid was $4,000 for the two build
ings other bidders were w. d. Had
dock and Company, John u. Heaiy
and Son, and w. Howard May, bids
having been asked for from ten con-
tractors. The price is for the two
cottages to house 72 girls and the
superintendent, officers and teachers.
The buildings are OF stone and the
bid includes the plumbing and FIX
lures, hardware and fire lines and
hose. It does not include heating,
electric wiring or electrical fixtures
for which separate bids will be asked
AS the bids have been submitted to
the building committee. but not TO
the managers Of the school the con-
tract has not yet been awarded
Within few days bids will be sought
for the other items of interior construc.
ton. and also for the water supply and
sewage disposal systems. Il is proposed
to use Naaman's creek as the source OF
water supply by using a hydraulic ram
for pumping. 1ne water has been found
TO be sufficient in quantity and OF good
quality, but TO insure the purest supply
a slow sand filter will be built. The sew
age will be tested by the most approved
scientific methods.
Herbert w. Hatton. of this city, the
consulting engineer for the school, will
advertise for the bids. No plans have
been made as yet to start the build
ling, but the overcrowded condition OF
the present school at rwenty-lifth and
Market streets makes il necessary that
the new building be ready as soon as
possible.
Within the last few days two more
girls have been committed to the
school by magistrates, and the build
ing designed for 30 girls now houses
81, crowded together in such way as
to render Il difficult to obtain the
best results.
Inasmuch as \the managers feel
bound to receive all who are COM
mited to the institution, the problem
OF housing and caring for the girls
Is increasingly difficult

4EyERYWOMAN.-

Many plays Of many kinds have
won success. but IL Is doubtful
whether there has ever been another
produced more subtly significant,
more deeply impressive, or more
wonderful in its appeal to senses than
the dramatic spectacle, Every
woman" which Henry W. Savage will
disclose at The Playhouse Friday and
Saturday with Saturday matinee.
The play is symbolic, dramatic. II
is an allegory; it Is poetry; it Is the
story as old as the world Of living
breathing men and women, and 1t Is
the story that is as fresh and new as
youth and beauty must always be
Il is the story of every woman seek
ing love and finding il only after
devious wanderings and long suffer
ing. trials and disappointments.

Fire Chief Elmer Thompson and

Early Morning Explosion
The explosion occurred at 2 o'clock
Sunday morning, awakening the
townspeople from their slumbers and
being distinctly heard by farmers
six miles away.
Flames broke out Immediately fol-
lowing the blast and spread rapidly
in spite of the best efforts of the
volunteer fire department, which was
early on the scene Fire Chief Thomp-
son one of the first to arrive when
the alarm was turned in. He was
standing in front of the building oc-
cupied by the Holtan restaurant,
when the explosion occurred, lifting
the entire roof from the building and
burying Thompson in the debris.
Herbert Farmen, another volunteer
fireman., was struck in the head by
falling brick, dying almost Instant
".
The flames spread rapidly to adj
joining buildings and soon the whole
block was in flames.
Matt Wire, the local miller, VINO
lived in apartments over the Holtan
restaurant, managed to get his wife,
two daughters and a son out Of the
building with difficulty. The flames
were then playing along the north
wall of the building. 4
\ Fire Department Powerless
The fire department was powerless
to stay the work of the flames, which
soon reached the J. E. Lund Hard
ware store, adjoining, and from there
spread to the Citizens State bank
and the Jackson & Emerson's Mer-
chandise store The four buildings
destroyed represent loss of $22, 900.
4 The loss on the stock and fixtures
will reach $4,000, all of which il
partly covered by insurance.
The cause of the fire is matter
of conjecture, but is believed to have
been caused by a charge Of nitro
glycerine or gun-cotton. The fire
marshal's Office has been notified and
an investigation may be ordered.

Alfalfa Seed Nav
Now Be Obtained
J. E. Neil Receives Thirty Bushels
of Seed For Redwood Coun-
ty Use

j. E. Neil, County Agricultural
Agent for Redwood County has re-
ceived within the last few days thir-
ty bushehls Of alfalfa seed for use
by Redwood County farmers. This
is the first introduction of any con-
siderable quantity of this seed in the
county and is sufficient to sow about
a hundred and twenty-five acres.
Each acre sown should, with proper
care, produce three and one-half
tons Of hay which sells at SIS per
ton, netting $50 for each acre sown
with alfalfa.
BY little simple arithmetjc ii u
easy to see that this sum, when one
figures interest taxes and expenses
on land valued at $500 per acre and
still leave q small profit aside the
benefit the soil derives from the crop.
This would seem to be about as pro-
ftable crop as Minnesota farms
viii be able to find.
The seed il being delivered to far
mers at twenty cents per pound and
many agriculturists are buying
enough to sow at least small patches.
