?f-l 'si FLOOD DID A Complete History of Johnstown's Stricken Schools. I -ME. COLLIKS GRAPHIC EEPOET. The Jr. 0. U. A. H. HaTe Eaised Oyer $1,800 For Education. THE EXACT CONDITION OP THE DISTKICT About one month ago the State Council of Pennsylvania, Jr. O. TJ. A. M"., issued an appeal to the subordinate councils for contributions to a fund to aid the public schools in the Conemaugh Valley. Up to the present timel6S councils have responded, and there is in the hands of Stephen Collins, of this city, who is the State Vice Councilor of the order, about $1,800. Yesterday Mr. Collins returned from Johnstown, where he had a conference with the representatives of the various school districts, and he gives the following as the result of his inquiries and observations : In the first place you must understand that what is known as Johnstown is really several different boroughs, iz: "Woodvale, MiHville, Conematigli borough, Cambria and Lower Yoder. Conemaush station, on the Pennsylvania Railroad, is in EastCone maush borough. Mineral Point is in a township. In August or September an appeal was sent out by the School Board ol Johnstown, askmgaid for their public schools. Seven fine buildings had been used for schools be fore the flood, all but one or which had been flooded more or less, two were washed away, two were burned np a'ter the flood, and two were badly damaged. Before the flood tlieir property was very valuable, and their debt ol flU'.UUU was comparatively small, .but after the destruction ot their property it was csnsiderably in excess ot the maximum al lowed by law, and they could issue no bonds nor borrow money in any way. Their State appropriation could not lie increased until next year, and their assessable prop erty hnd decreased from about fl.300,000 to about 5500,000, and the owners of these va cant lots WERE BET POORLY PREPARED to pay taxes. Their appeal to the friends ot free education resulted in but few contri butions. Immediately following the circu lar issued by the Johnstown board came a like appeal sisned hy the boards of the other boroughs in the flooded district ask ing for their share of aid. Since then it has been learned that only three other boroughs really need the assistance of the charitably disposed, viz: the boroughs of Woodvale, Conemaugh and Cambria, and to a less ex tent. Lower Yoder. 'While the last named suflered very little loss, they have been saddled with about 250 pupils from the other school districts, and their funds are inadequate to the demands. In Johnstown they have succeeded in repairing some of their school buildings, and now they have 4 rooms in operation under charge of 25 teachers. "With all the money they have been able to scrape together, including the insurance received for the burned buildingb they will be able to run these 21 school rooms for a term of about five months, and to prolong it to eight months, as desired, will cost $3,000, and 1,300 scholars are now in attendance at these schools. In Woodvale their elegant brick build ing, valued at f 18,000, was completely washed away, with all their furniture and books. In all these boroughs the text books are furnished to the children by the school boards free of cost. The Woodvale district had a debt of S5,C00. They will need $700 additional to run the two rooms which they are fitting up in a wooden building for a six months' term. Tfieycan run the schools when fitted up for 115 per month. Conemaugh borough needs $1,200 more to take care ot the COO children enrolled. They bare spent $3,500 in arranging temporary quarters. Last year they had 4S0 pupils, and the parochial school had 420. Now they all or what is left of them want to attend the public schools. Two hundred and fifty dollars per month will meet run ning expenses. In Cambria borongh they need $400 addi tional to meet a six months' term. KEGITLAB CONTRIBUTIONS. County Superintendent J. W. Leech, of Ebensburg, is custodian of the iund sub scribed by the public and the various t-chool districts in the State, but he has re ceived only Sl,100, which he divided among the districts named above, outside of Johns town borough. D- J. Jones, Auditor of the Cambria Iron "Works, is custodian of the fund contributed to the Johnstown borough schools. He has received less than 2,000. These amounts are spent, and fC.000 more is seeded. It was hoped that the fund from the Jr. O. XT. A. M. would reach at least $3,000, as that sum would educate about 2,300 children for two months. The Jrl O. U. A. M. did grand work for the sufferers immediately after the flood.and subscribed a large sum of money nearly 58,000 besides two carloads of provisions, and were the first to establish headquarters in the town, but they are pledged to support end maintain the public school system. As only abont half of the councils have responded, many of the richest having taken no action as yet, the fund may be greatly in creased. Contributions should be made promptly and liberally, and where councils have money ther should remember that the Johnstown schools need it badly. That is what their money is for and they should remember the filth" object of the order. All funds should be remitted to SteDhen Collins, Superintendent of Mails, Pittsburg, Pa.

A Seven-Story Structure Handsomely Fitted np Thronghout The Annual Meeting of the Company. The stockhqlders of the Fidelity Title and Trust Company, of Pittsburg, held their annual meeting yesterday in the new build ing on Fourth avenue. "The report of the year's business was presented, and showed a very flourishing condition of affairs. The election of directors resulted in the choice of the same 15 who have so ably conducted the interests of the institution. The list re mains: John B. Jackson, Albert H. Childs, James J. Donnell, E. M. Ferguson, Reuben Miller, Robert Pitcairn. J. Bayard Henry, E. M. O'Neill, David Kobinson, William Scott, Charles E. Speer, H. S. A. Stewart, C. L. Magee, J. Levering Jones, Wm. H. Staake, ot Philadelphia. General connsel, Geo. Shiras, Jr. The company has one of the finest situa tions for business in the country, occupying the basement, first floor and nearly all the second floor of the seven-story building. The granite walls and inside fittings of the place show that at last a thoroughly fire proof bnilding has been pnt up. At the same time Mr. Jackson, the President, showed that on each floor an automatic fire reel and hose were provided, so that each in dividual office was protected. The main office is finished in mahosrany, the counters and desks having been specially designed lor the company. All the floors are finished in hard wood, and the plumb ing, electric lighting and gas fitting aie on the newest and most perfected designs. Each floor is fully fitted out in such shape that the resources are complete in them selves, and the crippling of any one floor does not affect those above or below it. Climbing to the height of the seventh story, which gives the elevator man a rest and gives the explorer an opportunity for appre ciating a rest, the first thing to' strike the visitor is the observation of the principle of utility in the architectural design. The building proper is isolated from all probable or existing shading edifices by the design, which affords ventilation and light, no mat ter how closely the place is built around. The floors are formed of steel beams and arched with tiles. All exposed parts of iron used in the building are covered with fire-proof material. The partitions are all of brick or tile. No wood whatever is used in the construction of the bnilding, excepting window and door frames, doors and floor coverings; all moldings are of cement. The upper floors are for offices, and furnished with every modern improvement and con venience fast running elevators; set basins in each office; toilet room for ladies' exclu sive use; electric light (Company's own plant); Cutler mail chute, with TJ. S. mail box on first floor. The most finished and perfect piece of work in the country is the vault on the first floor. It is isolated from the walls from its foundation in the basement to the beautifully curved roof in the office room. The walls are of chilled steel and bolted throughout from side to side and top to bot tom. Before entering the vault a high iron barricade is watched by a care-taker, who must recognize every person who asks en trance before he turns his key. Within the vault another watchman stands who has to open the outer door to the drawer required with a master key before the visitor can in vestigate the contents of the space he has rented through the medium of a private key. The spaces rented number away up into the thousands, and cost from $5 per annum to 550. Some additional boxes of larger capacity are now being planned which will cost $100 per year. As to what the contents are of these boxes no one can form an idea outside the indi vidual who rents the spaces. Deeds of prop erty, marriage licenses, bonds, titles, family records, family plate, family ancestral trees and mortgages form the most common class of the contents, while what else may be sealed up in the recesses of the vault cot even the president of the company, J. B. Jackson, who acted as guide through the premises, could even surmise. The safe is one of the largest in the country, and the product of home brains, with bright, cheer ful coupon rooms for the accommodation of renters of boxes and storage vaults, all fur nished with every known convenience, the vault itself being lighted bv electricity and furnished with the most modern locks and contrivances for the safety of the valuables of its patrons. The basement shows about the greatest amount of power in the smallest space in the city. The concentration of power shows the most accurate engineering ability, the seven-story elevator cables being operated in a space of about 15 by 6 feet. The dyna mos and the steam boilers are also placed and contrived on a multum in parvo princi ple, but Mr. Jackson showed that although the gas played its part in keeping up the heat of discussion under the boilers, the company had provided for all emergencies by building a very comfortable coal bin in the corner, containing from 12 to 15 tons of coal. Even the electric light was looked upon with a certain amount of suspicion, for in the dynamo room itself, glaring with a. cold eye of hostility do wn upon the revolv ing brush, was an artificial gas jet running on half time, in case the electrio arrange ments shonld slip a cog or break a band. There are two Crane elevators in the build ing, and two. Westinehouse dvnamos with a Russell engine furnish the power, the cost of the building complete being $350,000, and is, as will be shown by the annual state ment, a paying property, over two-thirds of the offices being now leased to leading com panies of the country. There are some peculiar statistical features connected with the immense vault which may be interesting. The safe is composed of fully 1,000,000 pouuds of metal and alone cost $75,000. It has sufficient space within lor 6,600 average boxes, and provision is made for supplementary room when re quired. In rear of the vault are two sets ot apartments on different sides of the build ing, the one side beine for ladies and thn 'other for gentlemen, where they can exam ine documents, sups, oonos, or transact any other business in the strictest privacy. The same rule is observed in the iront of the office, where the ladies' window is Jar re moved, not alone frpm hearing, but sight, from the other windows in the counter. At yesterday's meeting the following statement was presented, showing not alone the business done within the past year, but also the keen appreciation of an essentially business community, like that of Pittsburg of the necessity of such an institution. The report read: Liabilities Capital. $ 500,000 60 Undivided profits 63,189 93 Deposits 008,059 30 81,163,249 28 Assets Real estate and vault 277,487 40 Record plant. 90.506 03 Bank balance, cash &. aemand loans Mortgage loans f 92,386 8tf Collateral loans 178,633 88 Interest accrued, not due. 6,157 92 122,26183 277,208 58 375,210 00 Bonds and premium ., Furniture and futures 10,513 98 Premiums and lees due 10,053 40 81,161249 28 The re-election of the directors indicates that the same officers will be replaced at the next directors' meeting.
