REMODEL OLD HIGH SCHOOL STRUCTURE Addltlea Also Badly Xeedea to Either Atii B or 8toi4 A?f Balldlaas to Arranimo. date Paalls. i To provide for the continually Increasing number of children the cttjr schools will be one of the important matters to come up for discussion at the semi-annual meeting of the Board of Kducatlon. Report from the prlclpals of the several building- ihow that nearly all the schools In the city are taxed to their capacity and aeveral of them are Inconveniently crowded. To relieve thla congestion the board will be called upon to take some action In the near future. Hotli the Aven-ie B and Second avenue schools are overcrowded and an addition will have to be built next spring- to one of those building. Which one has not yet been decided upon, but In all probability It will be at the Avenue B school. A four room addition will be necessary and If It Is decided to build It at the Avenue B school. It Is likely that an old wing containing two rooms will be torn down and a new six- room aaaiuon erected, j no wing contain Ing two rooms at the Avenue B school was erected on tbe ground without any base ment and the rooms are damp. To tear down this wing and erect a new addition of six rooms It Is estimated would entail an expenditure of about $15,000. Members of the board state, however, that no matter what the cost the congestion on the Avenue B and Second avenue schools will have to be relieved as soon as possible. May Tso Old High School. The advisability of uaing the old High school building as a ward schcol again will come tip for discussion at tonight's meeting of the board. It Is believed that at a cost of about T10.000 the building-, which although erected more than twenty years ago. Is still In first class condition so far ss the walls and foundation are concerned, could be low ered and remodelled Inside. It Is believed tbe grounds could be graded down and the building lowered, provided with new floors rtnd generally repaired Inside so as to make It available for a ward school. To construct i a new four-room building In that district It la estimated would cost at least $12,000. By using the old High school building as a grade school again the congestion at the Bloomer, Washington avenue. Third street and Pierce street schools could be relieved In the most satisfactory manner. In the event of the old High school building being used as a ward school the boundaries of the other four schools named would be Changed. Since the opening of the school year this month the board baa received about seventy applications ' for transfer of pupils to schools outside the district In which they reside. For Instance, parents of pupils liv ing o Fifth avenue and within the boun daries of the Eighth avenue school have applied to have them transferred to the Washington avenue and Bloomer schools. Pupils attending the Third street school have applied to be transferred to the Bloomer school, and so on throughout the entire city. Heretofore the board has en deavored to comply with such requests, but this year, owing to the congested condition prevailing In almost every building, all re quests have been denied. Never Mind the -Water. The North Eighth atreet school will be reopened this morning, although the water Is still In the basement. In the event of a sudden cold snap tho committee on build ings Is of the opinion that by constant pumping the water can be kept below the level of tho boilers so that the building oaa be heated If necessary. It Is estimated that It will take at least two weeks to get all the water out of the basement of this bulld , ling. Constant pumping during the last J few days at the other schools In tho flooded districts has had Its effect and the oom tnlttee . stated yesterday that the heating plant could be operated In all the buildings If required. The committee has received word that danger of shortage of coal need not he feared now as the contractor has re ceived word that eight cars at least will be received here todsy or Tuesday for the ochoola. Secretary Rosa, while not having been able owing to tho flood conditions prevail ing In parts of the city to complete the i school census, will, at the meeting thla f evening, make a preliminary report. The V board this evening will appoint a secretary Wor the ensuing year, and Secretary Ross will undoubtedly bo reappointed, there be ing no other applicant for tho position in the field. Colored Taesplaaa to Jail. Three members of the Al Bashor Old Plantation company spent Sunday behind the bars at the city Jail. The company, the members of which are colored, arrived at the Union Paclfio transfer shortly be fore midnight Saturday. The three ar rested ore Carrie Bmlth, Gertie Holty and Robert Gllmore. Gertie and Carrie have both been making goo-goo eyes at Bob. and Gertie seemed to have won out for tho time being. When the company reached the tranafer Bob handed Uertie his mandolin to hold for htm while he hunted a refreshment coun ter. Carrie objected to Bob thus showing favoritism to Oertle and a mix up between the dusky females followed. Oertle struck Carrie over the head with Bob's mandolin, which great' damaged tht instrument, but apparently did not hurt Carrie any. Bob jumped into the game to rescue tho re mains of his mandolin, when Special Officer Gullfoyle arrested the trio and called the patrol wagon. At the city Jail the police had consider able trouble In preventing another hair pulling match between the women, but Gertie, who had become so wrought up over the fracas, fainted In Sergeant Whit taker's arms and this put an end to the fight. The women refused to occupy the same apartment and were given separate rooms on the second floor, lesterday the women had become more tractable and were willing to kiss and make up.

ROCKEFELUR PURSE BEHIND THEM Skip Dandy aad Fred Thompson Clear a Halt Million In First Seasoa aad riaa Bis Things for Fotnre. NEW YORK. Sept. 19.-3peclal.)-Loom-ing up in the world of geniuses or dsring Just now sre the figures of two young men from the West. Frederick Thompson, designer of the Omaha midway, and Elmer S. Dundy of Omaha, who came to New York last fall with more brains, dash, pluck and enterprise than cash, and are now closing tip the sesson with $1,500,000 profits and with more millions In sight for successive seasons. John D. Rocke feller, too, has taken a peep at the plans of the young wlxards.of the West and his millions are now back ot them and there Is no limit. Frederick 8. Thompson is 30 years old. bul looks ten years younger, a mere boy in appearance, but with a clear eye. quick step, ringing self-confidence and buoysnt spirits to bear him up In his dsring woo ing of Dame Fortune. Thompson Is an srchltect and was born In Nashville. Tenn. He rose rapidly in his profession and at 3 he designed and constructed the build ings of the Nashville exposition. He next designed and constructed the mldwsy at the Omaha exposition and later built the midway at the Buffalo Pan-American ex position. Meanwhile he had formed a part nership with his friend, Elmer 8. Dundy, son of the late Judge Dundy of Omaha, and a hustling genius and organizer like himself. The two, having gleaned a vast amount of experience at Omaha, came to the metropolis to test daring and amblt- ous plans for attracting the attention of the i 5.000.000 of people who live In and around Greater New York. Rockefeller Opens His Coffers. The young men had . cash and plegdes of cash of not over $300,000. Their plans contemplated an outlay of about $1,000,000 before the returti of a penny could be looked for. They must have more cash. They had a friend who was a director In the Rockefeller bank, the National City, and to him they went. The power behind the throne was consulted. John D. looked over the plans and slsed up the two young ohaps who conceived them, and finally he gave his approval. This was enough and a world's fair city planned by Thompson began to grow at Coney Island. The Rockefeller coffers were opened and the million that was spent was secured In no way save, by notes given by Thompson and- Dundy 'and faith In the enterprise. Five Millions Attend. There were msny predictions of dire dis aster and while the friends of the two men were civil they were shy and a settled cast of Incredulity rested on their counte nances when the subject of success wss mentioned. Put the men from the west "had the stuff' In them and went ahead. Twenty-two acres In the heart of Coney Island were built over with a series of novelty shows and the whole was called Luna Park. The numerous buildings were grouped about a large lngoqn and court of honor. In the 'center of which Is 'a huge tower 200 feet high, the whole studded with rowa of Incandescent lights. The same electrical scheme Is carried - out on 'the other buildings and at nlgbt -the park pre sents a scene of electrical magnificence lit tle short of the famous night display at the Buffalo exposition. The park at once attracted the attention cf tho greater city and tho park will close Its season next Sunday with an attendance from the mid dle of May to the day of closing In excess of 8,000.000, an average dally attendance of over 30,000. The average expenditure of each visitor has been 35 cents and the re ceipts have been In excess of $1,600,000. This has enabled the projectors to take up every note, pay all expenses of the fair snd leave them $500,000 to the good with a plant on hand worth $1,000,000 that will mean millions In the future. More Cash for Next Year, Bo hsppy have the Rockefeller Interests been at the outcome that the Rockefeller strong box has been pledged to finance any future plans of the young men no- matter how extravagant they may be. A com pany has been Incorporated with a capttnl of $10,000,000 and $2,000,000 are to be spent next year In new attractions and additional buildings- One feature of next year will be the reproduction of the magnificence of the great Indian durbar and 1J0 elephants and 600 natives of India will be brought over. In talking to your correspondent tbout the plans for the future Mr. Thompson said: "Our success has been so great here that we are going to other cities and try the Luna Park Idea. Chicago, Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore, St. Louis, Cincin nati, Milwaukee, St. Paul and Minneapolis and Buffalo all present opportunities which we shall not neglect. We will put all our energies Into our business here next year, but in 1905 we will extend our operations to all the cities named or as many of them as we can get at. Secret Is a "Cleaa Show." "It isn't hard to understand human na ture and furnish amusement for all classes of people. We have millionaires and their wives come here in their automobiles and plain everyday working people and both classes get an equal amount of amuse ment out of the place. Clean and whole some amusement is what (he people want despite the talk of a lot of mlngulded man agers who think that nothing in the amuse ment line will succeed unless a lot of women In scanty attire are to be seen kick ing up their heels and other senseless and worse nastlness. The cardinal rule here Is decency and cleanliness and It is my ex perience that Americans every time prefer that to shows that are off color. I said when I came here that the 5,000.000 to 3.000, Out people who come here every summer for amusement were true-blue Americans and loved what Is clean and wholesome. I have found this wholly true In all my experience everywhere and Coney Island's crowds are no exception to the rule." Mr. Dundy shares his partner's views and the two seem to have the vast majority of amusement lovers In the greater city on their side. Little of Cora lajarea BlOrX rALLS, 8. D.. Bept. 20.-8peclal.)
