The request of the boys that they have
A gymnasium In tht new High school
building will be granted. This was decided
upon nt a special meeting of tho Hoard of
Educntlon yesterday afternoon. It will bo
In tho hall designed for n drill room, tho
celling of which In only ten feet high. To
overcome tho difficulty of tho low celling
as far as possible, the beams at tho end
of tho hall under tho stage In tho audi
torium will be cut away and the celling
cut out. An additional height of three
feot will thus bo obtained at this end of
tho hall and will allow for the placing of
parallel burs, ladders and rings. Tho
space under the stupe will be fmxl3 feet.
The matter nas brought before tho board
by Mr. Sargent, who said that a number
of the parents of tho High school boys
had coino to him with requests thai ar
rangements bo mado for a gymnasium In
the new building. He referred to tho fact
that if the board had acted on his sug
gestion at tho tlmo It was suggested that
tho celling of tho. drill hall was entirely too
low and had raised It thrco feet by In
creasing the height of the walls of tho
building that much, the hall would have
made a far better gymnasium.
While tho matter was under discussion
Architect Schoeutgen suggested the feasl
hllty of cutting out tho celling from under
tho stage In tho auditorium. Tho expense,
ho wold, would not bo large, and It was
tho only plan whereby thu hall could be
utilized nt all for thu purpose of a gym
nasium. Tho matter was disposed of by referring
It to Chairman Sargent of tho committee
on buildings nnd grounds and Superintend
ent Clifford, with power to net. This means
that tho hoys will have a gymnasium.
Tho architects wero Instructed to pre
pare plans for tho approaches to tho
school and the retaining walls around tho
grounds.
In tho matter of blackboards for
new building, It was decided to have
tho
tho
same as In use in tho graded schools.
Miss Ollvo Thompson, teaj-her in the

What I he Pnrkn Cost.
Tho nnntinl report of tho Hoard of Park
commissioners nas been prepared by Sec
retary Phillips and will ho presented to the
city council Monday night.
Tho period covered by tho report Is from
November 1, 1899, to November 1, 1900. The
board spont $5,113.03 In Improvements and
maintaining tha parks, and tho surplus
on hand at November 1. 1900, was $879.01.
Iho expenditures were divided among the
parks as follows: Falrmount, J3.C11.C3;
HayllBS, $148.76; Cochran, $517.19; Lake-
view, $130.62; miscellaneous, $398.85. The
largo expenditure for Falrmount park wan
caused by tho erection of a new brtdge over
tho high cut at n cost of $1,100.
Tho revenue for tho curront year, It Is
estimated, will be $3,500, and all ot this
will bo needed for the running expenses of

ments. Tho board has under discussion the
advisability of asking a 2-mlU levy for next
year.

Dear Silt: We have been keeping house (or five yeats, and are never without
Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. We find nothing to equal it for stomacli trouble, and
my children like It as well as candy.
One night recently my wife was giving a dose to Wilraer, our baby (one and a
half years old), and Nelda, our little girl (four years old), r.ried for some, too. Her
mamma told her she didn't need it, and thru she said: "Can't I lfck the spoon ?'
It is so pleasant to take, the effects are so good, we hate to be without Dr. Caldwell'i
Syrup Pepsin. Yours truly,
