C0LORED ANNEX SOON TO BE
COMPLETED.

There have been a number of anx
ious inquiries from colored people re
garding the completion and dedica-
ton of the new annex for coloreG
people to the MaSsie Memorial Hos
pital, in this city. The inquirers
were in the main, those whose SER
vices were exceedingly valuable in
the drive" that made the annex a
possibility.
By/a little research THE NEWS
has discovered the cause of the delay
in opening the annex, and hastens TO
give it to the public. The building is
practically completed, and only
awaits the arrival Of long-delayed
shipment of electrical supplies neces-
sary for part of the equipment, in
order to be thrown open for the re
ception of patients. Water standing
in the recently cellars
and basement had also to be gotten
rid of, and until this work has been
accomplished the opening of the all
mex will necessarily be delayed.
The work is being fastened as RAP
idly as possible, and the annex plac-
ed in first-class condition, awaiting
the opening day. The delay of the
| electrical supplies, caused by a con-
gestion of freight, which has existed
| for some time, and rush for the
very same kind of material at the
| factories, has really been the main
| cause of the delay, but this will soon
be thing of the past, and the insti-
| tuition will be opened on time.
