Question ns to Bite to Bo Elxod During tho Coming Weok Relief Applications Made. At yesterday's regular mooting nt the poor board there was a general dis cussion ns to tho best location for tho now almshouse which It Is proposed to oroct at the Hillside Homo and It was finally decided to huve tho entire bonrd visit tho premises within tho next week and ngreo upon tho best site. Tho homo committee hnd already chosen a site on a knoll nbout 1,000 feet south of tho present buildings, but this action will not bo binding. Tho plans for the nfcw buildings pro pared by Architect E. H. Davis havo been approved by the board and bids havo already been advertised for. They ate to bo opened at the next meeting. There are to bo three separate build ings though nil will be practically con tinuous, as they will bo connected with corridors. The two main buildings will be constructed of brick. Those will bo two stories high. Tho third building will bo of brick construction but will bo only one story high. It will be ISOxlO feet in size. All three build ings will havo a capacity of -100, which Is almost as largo as the capacity of the present buildings. The Mnin Buildings. Tho two main buildings will be used for tho homing of male and female paupers, and the smaller building will bo used as a kitchen and dining room, They are to bo erected in extended or der and will have a total length ot 450 feet. Home Idea of their size may bo gained when It Is taken into consider ation that there will be no less than four-fifths of a.mllo of wall. The members of tho bonrd are chary about giving out any estimate of the cost of tho now buildings, but It is un derstood that thoy figure It will bo not lois than 5150,000 and perhaps nearer $175,000. Some of the members are inclined to favor erecting them piece-meal, one building one year and another the next, but it is unlikely that this plan will be adopted. Architect Davis estimates that the work of construction will take at least a year so that If work is begun next spring they would not be ready for occupancy until tho summer of 1901. An issue of bonds is to bo authorized to pay tho cost of construction. Tho foundations of tho buildings will bo constructed of concrete and this work will bo done by the Inmates. The purpose of erecting tho new buildings Is to keep tho insane and sane inmates separated, it being the general concensus of scientific opinion that Insane patients improve more rap idly when left by themselves. The new buildings will be used entirely for pau pers, but nro so planned that they can be utilized for tho care of the insane In the future should this ever become necessary. The present buildings nt the homo are greatly overcrowded. Superintendent's Report. Superintendent Beomer's report pre sented at yesterday's meeting showed that there are at present 489 Inmates at the home, classified as follows: in sane males, 130; sano males, 1.11; in sane females, li;5; sane females, Ci.
