Special to Times Republican
Hampton, April 14.-Tho the building
season Of 1915 is yet young, building
operations have commenced and at
least two commodious additions to

inclined approach will be provided BY
which autos can be taken to the base
ment. Work on this building was COM
menced while the weather was yet
very cold.
During the past few weeks workmen
have been busy Transforming the old
Hartman hall into flats for tenement
purposes. AS a public nall, the place
has not been profitable for years, and
lately with the scarcity Of houses and
rooming places, this was deemed the
best purpose to which tosput the place.
( The work son the lutheran hospi-
tai was resumed as soon as weather
permitted. False work was built and
the forms placed for the cement of the
first floor. This is finished and the
false work Is being moved up to serve
the same purpose for the second floor.
The walls are nearly completed for the
first story and work is progressing
rapidly.
