Senator Bruce doesn't exactly speak. He sputters, with a pause between ever two or three words.

It is as if he feels that having lost valuable time on each pause it's up to him to get out the next couple words rapidly to make up.

Tvnth of Work will begin immediately on erection of a large one-story storeroom building by the Stanley-Crandall Company on the vacant lot adjoining the Tivoli Theater, West Patrick street Announcement to this effect was made this morning by W.

Clinton McSherry, local counsel for the company. Contract for the work was awarded to Hahn Betson, this city, builders of the theater. The lot en which the building is to be erected adjoins the theater site on the east side. It has a frontage of approximately 30 feet. The new structure will have a depth of about 72 feet.

The lot is at present obscured from view by a large sign used by the theater for advertising purposes. The front of the new building will conform in appearance to that of the theater. Plans call for construction of a center entrance, with a display window on each side. Light will be provided through skylights. The plans do not call for the storeroom to open in the theater lobby.

The new store will be occupied by Dr. Thomas M. Williamson, who will conduct a soda fountain and drug establishment. The present store of Dr. Williamson on Market street, has been leased to the J.

J. Newberry Company, who take possession in the Fall. The proposed West Patrick street building is expected to be completed about July 15, according to present plans, Its erection will constitute a material improvement to the block.

He intimated he was remaining in Peking pending the outcome of a decisive battle which tie, expected to be waged at Liuliho, 35 miles to the southwest. Chang recounted his efforts since he took over the reins of government at Peking 17 months ago to maintain peace and protect foreigners. He gave assurances he was arranging such protection and would continue to do so in the immediate future regardless of his personal whereabouts. Although the dictator's address and the reply by the Dutch Minister, W.

The dictator's assurances of protective arrangements in the immediate future were received as a hopeful indication that the expected handing over the capital to the Nationalists will be accomplished peacefully.
