FRIDAY EVENING, JUNE 27, 1919. °*-K,S2K!ffiS B l33&> < ?Sߣ> HOME EDITION CAPITOL PARK EXTENSION WORK STARTS SEPT. 1 Board of Grounds Aims at Beginning Bridge Construc tion by That Time OFFICE BUILDING, TOO j Plans and Specifications For Great Development Are Well Under Way Work on the State street memorial bridge, the office building to be erected: in the Capitol Park extension and the ' beautification of the extension zone by • September 1, is the aim of the Board of Public Grounds and Buildings, Su perintendent Shreiner said to-day. The Legislature has appropriated $750,000 for the bridge, the city will contribute $300,000 and the railroad a considerable sum, running the total well over the mil lion-dollar mark. An appropriation of $1,250,000 for the improvements of the park zone, the construction of terraces and for an office building also has been : made and will be signed by Governor Sproul as a part of his legislative pro gram within the next few days. The Board of Public Grounds and Buildings is completing as rapidly as possible details and specifications for the : bridge and as soon as these are com-1 pleted bids will be advertised four weeks, according to law, and the con tract let. The architects believe that it will be Sept. 1 before the contractors will he able to put spade to ground. The work will start at Thirteenth street, in order not to interfere with State street traffic more than is absolutely necessary, and plans have been made for the running of a temporary street • car line up along the side during the operations. Next the abutments will be undertaken and finally the construction over the railroad tracks. The Board has been asked by the Pennsylvania Railroad to sell to it 26 feet of ground along the Seventh street side of the railroad right-of-way, in order that it may straighten its tracks there and lay three more. This the Board ap pears to be disposed to do and the mat- I ter will be taken up very soon. The plans of the bridge call for an additional arch to the east, so that the lfennsyl vania RaiH-oad may have a' total of 20 tracks instead of the 12 now in use : there. This is to protect its future growth. Park Extensions With regard to the l'ark Extension developments, the terraces and the pub lic building will be started about the same time, late this summer. Every effort is being made to rush the building, which will be of granite, to corres • spond with the Capitol, of handsome I design on the exterior and of a plain, l business character on the interior with i out any of the ornate furnishings which I characterize the Capitol itself. Prob lems of heating the building, the present steam plant being now operated to ca pacity, re-laying of water mains tn State street and the sewage system ot the park zone are all matters to which the architects and engineers are now giving their attention and will report to the Board shortly. The Bridge The bridge is to be made the Penn sylvania memorial to the "Citizens of this Commonwealth who served in the military and naval forces of the United States in the late World War." Mem orial pylons will be erected at the west ern end of the bridge in which will be placed tablets containing the names of all Pennsylvanians who participated in i the war. The bridge, approaches and pylons j are to be built in accordance with plans i and specifications prepared by Arnold j W. Brunner and J. E. Griener, which j have been approved by the Board of j Public Grounds and Buildings. All con-] tracts are to he let by the Board to the: lowest and best bidders. A superin-] tendent of construction may' be em-| ployed. Harrisburg will be charged with the roadway and sidewalks, the protection ] of all water mains or conduits under the present line of State street and the | preserving, protecting and policing of! the bridge. Harrisburg must provide by ordinance that the property paral-| leltng the bridge from the line of the; Pejjnsylvania Railroad Company east wardly for one block, north and one' block south of the bridge shall not be I hereafter put to any use which in the; judgment of the State Art Commission; shall damage or detract from the struc ture. The present use of the property shall not "be affected l>y this provision. Under the terms of the other bill the Commissioners of Public Grounds and Buildings are authorized to erect, con struct and complete ready for furnish ing an office building in Capitol Park and to provide for the necessary filling, grading and terracing in connection with the building. This building is to be constructed in accordance with plans of Mr. Brunner, which have been ap proved by the commissioners. A super intendent of construction may be em ployed. This building is to be erected in the Capitol Park extension, the 29 acres which have been acquired by the State on the east side of the Capitol build ing. With the Memorial bridge, the new office building and the landscape work which is to be done, the settings for the Pennsylvania Capitol will be among the most beautiful in the coun try. Harrisburg is co-operating with the State in the beautification of the cap ital city. The city will see that all buildings abutting on Capitol Park will be erected in harmony with the State's plans. A new city-county building for Harrisburg is to be erected. It is prob able the Pennsylvania Railroad Com pany will put an ornamental passenger station somewhere near the park, If not facing on It. All North street prop erties are to be set back 20 feet as a part of the beautification scheme the city Is helping to work out.

The real mother advertised for two days In local papers for some one to adopt or board little "Eugene," but not an answer came, and Mrs. Meyers Nell son, wife of Captain Nielson, who makes a specialty of this sort of charity, of fered her services.
