Mcotlnp3 of Board of Education.
The board of education held a
regular meeting on Monday even
ing and an adjourned meeting
Wednesday night. R. W. Grant,
the Lincoln architect, was present
Monday evening. The board
also had a proposition from a Arm
of architects in Chicago. Mr. Grant
made several different propositions
to the board regarding his plans,
and the board finally decided to ac
cept the following: If the bonds
carry the plans to be accepted if
the contract is let for not more than
$23,000, Mr. Grant to receive as
payment for the plaus and specifi
cations two and one-half per cent
of the contract price, and if his ser
vices are needed at any time dur
ing the construction of the build
ing he is to come here and receive
eight dollars per day lor his ser
vices. The per cent for the plans
and specifications is just half of the
per cent usually charged by arcln
tccts.
A framed sketch of the proposed
building will be placed on exhibi
tion in one of the store windowp
The plans were described at some
length in Tub Triuunk several
weeks airo.

legal voters to make the call for an
election legal but it was decided to
iidjourr until Saturday night and
in "the meantime procure more
signers in order that no question
as to the legality of the call might
hereafter arise. The board can

Hound House Improvements.
Jno. Lanktrcc, the head of the
ridge and building department.
came up from Omaha yesterday to
oversee the work of re-building the
round house. One gang of builders
came up Wednesday night and
another gang came up last night.
In addition to these men a number
of local men will be employed and

work as the additional space in the
round house is very much needed.
The amount to be expended on
the round house is $15,000. The
stalls lor the new engines will be
lengthened forty feet . This will
necessitate the rebuilding of the
walls. The ro'of twill also be
raised to accomodate the 1700s.
