THURSDAY. LOT BEING CLEARED For the New Carnegie Library. Perry R. Conn today began the re moval of the two buildings on the site of the Carnegie library, on Ferry Street, to the lot on Third street the corner building to be at the west side ot the lot and the building on the alley to be at the east side ot the inside lot. This leaves the Ferry street lot 67 by 101,W feet for the library, which will be placed in the middle of the lot, facing Ferry street. The size of the building is not yet determined, but it will need a depth of at least 55 feet, and the frontage will probably be more than that. The liberality of Mr. and Mrs. Young in giving the Ferry street lot for the library will be generally appre ciated. There will be ample room for a neat lawn at each end and the main entrance and step3 in front. Plans for the structure with evidence of the transfer of the property will be, when prepared, transmitted to the Car negie people for approval, before ac tual work can be begun on the struc ture.
