MAN BUILDS PORCH CHAIRS FOR HOME AT NIGHT SCHOOL Class in Wood Working Spends Time Making Useful Furniture to Add to Comforts of Houses. Enrollment in the night school -will continue tonight and tomorrow night, when all classes will be open from

7:16 to 9:15 o'clock. A large number enrolled last night, and many of the Instructors reported that all of their pupils of the first term would be back. There were also several new members In each of the classes, and school officials predict that the enrollment rec ords will be broken by Friday night Class work will begin tonight, and classes will be open tomorrow night for the benefit of those who wish to enroll at that time. Classes will meet aaln on Friday night. Beginning with next week all classes will meet on Tuesday and Friday evenings at 7:15 o'clock. Continue Fall Work. In many classes the work will be tinuation of that done last term. In most of the vocational classes the pupils have started on some practical line of work which they wish to continue. In the wood working classes under Mr. Hybarger, most of the men are building articles. of furniture for their homes and they will continue on the .ume pieces. As - many of the other classes, the twiil. is trying to make the work suit u.v. individual needs of each pupil, a.:d instead of putting in the time on small models and exercises, Mr. Hy burner believes in spending the same amount of time on articles that will be really useful. One man was making a set of porch furniture, another n hall tree, while a third pupil was proudly showing his wife a part of a piano bench that he was making for the home. Others among the pupils of last term have enrolled in other lines of work this time, with the idea that it will be better to get a smattering of several different subjects. School officials anticipate an enrollment of about 800 by the end of the week. KNIGHT TEMPLARS nrrinmO INST&i Ilrrllltnj 1 Ul U 1.1 IV George a. ; 4. caimem Command Treat for Members.

ENGINEER ADVISES MODEL BUILDING

Fred Charles Directs Atten tion to Experimental Block in East End. The report of City Engineer Fred Charles shows that Richmond has 68.183 miles of streets, only 5.64 miles being brick, and 2.444 miles cement. There are 27.137 miles of 6treet made of gravel or boulders and 21.666 miles of macadam streets. Richmond now has 48.220 miles of sewers, their be ing .88 of a mile of sewers built the past year. Mr. Charles in his report writes: In transmitting the annual report of this department for the year ending December 31, 1914, I desire to thank you and the other officials for courtesies and co-operation rendered. and the members of the department for faithful service and interest in the work. As you see, we have succeeded in paving some of our principal thorough fares which have long needed it. Especial attention is called to South Nineteenth street, which is built as a 'model street.' Concrete sidewalks curbs and gutters, and roadway; sewer and water connections to each lot; underground conduit for telephone and electric light; ornamental street lights in center of parkway. Truest economy will result from building our streets in this manner; first, the underground structures, complete, and then a permanent roadway pavement. "We have made good progress on the Morton park sewer system, al though it is not completed in time to be included in this report. "I would again call attention to the need of adequate relief sewers in several parts of the city. North E street can be relieved by constructing a sewer in North Twelfth street, which can best be done In connection with an undergrade crossing of the railroad, which has long been desired, and would add immensely to the safety and convenience of the public, and result in eventual economy to the railroad, and increase the property values north of the tracks. The filter beds at the sewage dis posal plant should be enlarged. The I growth of that part of the city has increased the duty of these beds. A sewer system and disposal plant is needed for the region west of West Ninth street, from the National road north. "Attention Is again called to the necessity of painting the river bridges. This has been neglected for a number of years, pending a decision as to whom the duty properly belongs, the city or the county. But it must be done by some one, or the deterioration will be beyond repair. "The. Street Railway company has finally extended its tracks from South H street to South N street, under tha supervision of this department, as well as in North Nineteenth street from G to J street, but the crossing at the P., C, C. and St. L railway thereby is still in abeyance. "I wish again to emphasize the advisability of planning tha next season's work In the fall and winter, so as to let the contracts as soon after January 1 as possible, as thereby better bids can usually be obtained, and a longer season allowed for the construction work." CITY MAY INSPECT ITSELF IN MOVIES Films of Scenes Along National Trails Include Views of Richmond. Motion pictures taken across the country recently by members of the National Old Trails association and the Faidley Motion Picture company probably will be shown in Richmond the latter part of this month by the advertising committee of the Commercial club. The purpose of the pictures Is to boost interest in the Natinoal road and old western trails by promoting their us in making the trip to the western coast in automobiles. The committee gave $100 to the movement. A moving picture theatre will be hired for a day and probably two shows Elven. A lecturer nointing out i places of interest along the route ac The committee t, vwvn n ,h niot nrPR taken around Richmond because of the unusual scenic effects obtainable here. ' Jr LICHTENFELS DUYS HAIR GOODS STORE The stock and fixtures of the Dent & Boosveld ladies' furnishing and hair goods store at 1010 Main street, were j purchased by Ray Lichtenfels yesj terday afternoon, Mr. Lichtenfels said today that ho 1 waa not ready to make public his j plans, but that the store would con- ! tinue to run as usual for some time. ! "Later on I expect to close out the 1 stock of the new store and by that ; toJU lmva m v nlnnn rtefinitplv tn mind," he said. FAMILY FRUSTRATES ATTEMPTED SUICIDE Because members of the family prevented Mrs. Nancy Stevens, 50, wife of William S. Stevens, 922 North Eleventh street, from drinking more than half an ounce of carbolic acid, what is believed to have been an attempted suicide, failed. Although Mrs. Stevens is badly burned by the acid, the physician who was called said she would recover. Her suffering is intense. Mrs. Stevens, who went to a i drue store and purchased the acid. had nothing to say regarding her motives.

WAYNE LOSES $6,500 ON TAX DISTRIBUTION State Returns Less Than County Submitted for Gen eral School Funds.

Wayne county 1b loser by more thau $6,500 in school funds sent to the state and apportioned to the counties according to the number of school children, the annual distribution of state school funds for 1915 shows. By having higher property valuations and fewer school children, this county Is helping to the extent of about twenty-five per cent of its state common school tax collection to support other counties' school systems. The county sent to the state $27,754 in 1914 and will receive tomorrow $21,243 as its share. The state pays $1.98 for each school child enumerated. The enumeration in 1914 in Wayne county was 10,728. The previous year the county sent $27,000 to the state and received in return in January 1914 $20,536.84, a loss equal to the loss this year. The appor tionment was made on the basis of $1.94 or four cents less to each school 1 child. The enumeration then was 10,-! 685. j The number of children enrolled in t the schools is not figured in the enu-1 meration. All persons between the ages of six and twenty-one are counted as school children. The school city of Richmond will receive more than half of the money sent by the state. The last enumeration shows 5,803 persons of school age in the city. This will bring the amount due the school city to almost $12,000. Last year $11,728 of Wayne county's share of $20,500 went to the Richmond schools. GOUNCILMEN THANK TREE COMMITTEES Tho Mtin.i'noi chricttnoo Tma er,Tr.

MOVE TO LEGALIZE BOXING IN ILLINOIS SPRINGFIELD, 111., Jan. 5. The first move to bring about legalized boxing in the stato of Illinois will be i made today at Springfield when a bill 1 permit a snort in the states of Wiscon- . . sin and New York, will be referred to the legislative bureau upon the opening of the legislature, The representative who has framed the measure is Edward Santry. perhaps better known as Eddie Santry, who a little more than a decade ago was one of the greatest featherweights in tha world. He was elected to the legislature last November. RUSHING BUSINESS INCREASES RECRUITS The theory of Recruiting Officer Abbott that the more rushing general business is the better are the enlist raents in the army, is borne out, he says, by present conditions. Tha more depressed business conditions have become and the more men thrown out of work, tho poorer the enlistments, is the rule. Corporal Abbott said enlistments have been falling off steadily. "If a man has a good .lob and wants to join the army he will quit his job but if he doesn't want to join the fact that he has not had a job for months does not have any effect on causing him to enlist," the recruiting officer said.
