WASHINGTON, Oct. 24.-Vhatever the
unworthy taunts flung at Philadelphia
they do not hold Rood with tho strenuous

WEST PHILADELPHIA
HOSPITAL SOON A FACT
Committee Has Several Sites in View
from Which Selectfan "Will Bo Made.
The committee In charge of the now
$100,000 hospital to be erected In West
Philadelphia has formed a boundary
within which tho Institution will be lo
cated. It has concluded that a site be
tween 63th street nnd 11th street. Darby.
and Chester and Elmwood avenues, would
best meet the requirements of the Indus
tries and residents In the western suburbs.
Four of tho flvo sites, ono of which will
probably be chosen within a week, are
unflcr consideration.
The Hcv. Allan Bnlllle, tho organizer or
the hospital association, stated that mora
than J10.C00 of the money necessary to
begin operations vns subscribed nnd that
ho expects to rocclvo In subscriptions
about 115,000 within a month. He also
Mid that aid would be rendered to tho
organization by women's auxiliaries which
would bo quartered In Lansdowne, Colwln.
Darby, Sharon Hill, the 40th Ward, Elm
wood, Clearvlew, Mount Morlah and other
sections.
"To servo the Industries In the vicinity
Of the hospital," said Mr. Ballllo, "we ex
pect to maintain an exclusive ambulance
for that purpose, ono whoso sole duty
shall bo to care for tho Injured of the
factories and mills." It Is thought that
progress hi the future will be rapid, as a
reorganization has taken place.

21ST WARD SITES
PROVE ATTRACTIVE
TO HOME BUILDER
Picturesqtie Wissahickon and
Roxborough the Scene of
Many Handsome Suburban
Dwelling Operations
The 21st Ward, especially the Wissa
hickon and Boxborough portion, has n
most picturesque sluntlon on the bank
of the Schuylkill Itlver on one side nnd
n flno slope on the other" side, rising to
quite an elevation, -nidge nvenue makos
o fine diagonal sweep through the section,
breaking 'lie streets laid out at right
angles, Probably nowhere have streets
been projected with moro difficulty over
great ravines nnd etony hillsides.
A large tract of unimproved land lies
in tho section along the Kalrmount Park
line, to which attention wns drawn some
six years ago by the opening of the Wnl
nut lane concrete bridge over tho Wissa
hickon, which shares with tho high
bridge over tho same stream the honor
of being ono of Philadelphia's most ar
tlstlc structures of the kind.
The Walnut lane bridge placed tho 21st
Ward In touch with the well-dcvoloped
Germnntown section; all that wns needed
were troiloys, which were promised as
soon as tho streets were ready for them.
The trolley plans have so far failed
to develop, so that the section Is In a
wnltlng attitude. Tho E. n. Clark Com
pany Is building a neat residence on tho
north side of Walnut lane, cast of nidge
avenue, nnd on the west side an opera
tion of 21 dwellings Is under way at Ter
race street.
In the central section, among tho fine
residonco streets, are Lycourn avenue,
Green lane and East Lcverlngton street.
Here the dwellings range In value from
JC000 to 110,000.
NUMEROUS IMPROVEMENTS
On the north aide of Lyceum avenue
near Dexter street four attractive dwell
ings are in course of erection, three of
which havo been sold before being fin
ished. On the south side of Llvezey ave
nue east of Ridge avenue six dwellings
of tho bungalow type nre being built by
owners on lots comprising one-quarter
acre each. Those nre opposite the hand
some Schmidt Mansion.
On Harmon road west of nidge avenuo
Keller Brothers, builders, are putting up
a number of dwellings at a range of price
from $3500 to 110.000.
There are a great mnny elevations In'
itoxDorough. A climb up the steep street
to ono of theso points of vantage will
nmply repay any ono In the vlow that
meets tho eye. The river In the Mana
yunk sections Is bordered by tho busy
mills. Tho built-up portion of the town,
dotted here and thcro by sharp point?
of rock anil open spaces, whero condi
tions are too rugged to tempt the layer
out of streets, or the builder. Further
on, more open development, nnd then
suburban condltlqns, while far boyond
stretches the country with flno old trees
nnd the hazy blue line marking the hori
zon, enn be seen.
Values aro still low enough In this sec
tion to afford an opportunity for the sub
urban home seeker to obtnln what he
wnnta at figures which aro much below
thoso prevailing In many other localities
less favorably situated.
IMPORTANT MORTGAGES nEXTORDED
Mortgages recorded on AVednesday,
Thursday and Friday of this week show
trust companies loaned $3)3,800, building
societies $327,200, and Individuals $22S,O0O.
Several large ones were recorded, vis:
30,000 on southwest corner 25th and Al
legheny nvenue.
$30,000 on Nos. IK-4 North Front atreet.
$54,000 on north aide of Columbia nve
nue, 250 feet west 61st street.
$(5,000 on northwest corner of Broad
and Lombard streets.
The last mentioned was In connection
with the transfer of the First United
Prrsbyterlan Church to Frederick II.
Ketser, who purchased tho ground and
Improvement for $S3,1S0. It Is assessed
for $90,000.
The general situation, as voiced by real
estate men In all parts of the city, Is
dull. Very few properties are being of
fered for sale at the auction rooms, own
ers apparently not wanting to have them
put up on such a narrow market.

BLIND FOR A YEAR; SEES
Aged Woman's Cataraot Removed by
Physician.
It Is doubtful whether there Is a hap.
plor woman In the city today than Mrs.
Anna Hawkes, 79 years old, of 1218 Provi
dence road, Scranton. Pa., who Is able to
see again after being blind for a year,
and will be able to read the finest print
with the aid of glasses.
Dr. TV. Campbell Posey removed a cata.
ract from the woman's right eye yester
day. When a nurse at the Howard Hos
pital removed the bandages she saw her
husband, John Hawkes. who Is 81 years

"Thank God," murmured the old man.
when Mrs. Hawkes gave a little cry of
gladness and exclaimed, "Oh, John, Isn't
It' wonderful? I can see again."

Party Lines Broken by
'Wets' and 'Drys' as Cam
paign Through State
Draws to Close.
WILMINGTON, Del., Oct. 2.-Congress-man
Franklin Brockson Is temporarily
back In tho State from Washington work
ing for his re-election nnd the election
of the Democratic ticket, an woll. The
Congressman haa mado many addresses,
but Is not attempting to duplicate the
performance "bf his rival. Secretary of
Slate Thomas W. Mil'lor, Republican nom
inee who Is to speak each afternoon and
night except Sunday for tho remainder
of tho campaign.
Drookson Is defending tho course of
tho Democrats and endeavoring to Bhow
that present business conditions nre duo
to other causes than a Democratic ad
ministration, while Miller Is charging tho
Democrats with Incompetency In handling
the affairs of the country and in giving
In to England on the Panama Canal
matter.
In the meantime J. Hall Anderson, Pro
gressive nominee for Congress, Is also
moving about at a lively rate, telling
the voters that tho only organization com
petont to put real reforms Into effect is
the Progressive party.
"WETS" AND "DP.YS" DRAW BATTLE
LINE.
Both tho Democrats and Republicans
express themselves confident of carrying
the election, but there Is a fear among
home of the Democrats that the hard
times are going to send some voters over
to the Republicans. Normally, Delaware
Is Republican by a small majority, but
the doubtful quantity Is the Progressives.
The most doubtful pottlon of the ticket,
however. Is the legislative .section. The
Democrats want It so that they may
block any effort to turn Wilmington into
the hands of the Republicans through a
new city charter. Tho Republicans would
llko to frame the new charter or pass
upon the one which has been framed. Tha
Progressives have no hope of winning the
Legislature.
What niakes tho Legislature donhtfnl
Is the attitude of the "wot" and "dry"
forces In various parts of the State.
The "wet" Interests will be just as
active as the "dry," and "wet" Repub
licans will vote for a wet" Democratic
candidate In case their own party candl-
usie is a ary man.
Tho reason for the, contest between the
"wets" and "drys" over members of the
Legislature Is the peculiar provisions of
the Btate Constitution. For Instance,
Kent County at this time Is "dry," but
should a majority of tho members of tho
Legislature from Kent County nlone sign
a paper demanding a new vote 011 tha
question of license or no license In that
county, tho Legislature would be fon-p.i
under the provisions of the Constitution,
to again submit the question.
As there are five Senators and ten Rep.
1nl.HUvM wrn that county It would
."ht,ne,C.M8ary fr Wet3" to havo
.?.. ot ,,em' regardless of party, to
havo another vote taken. whll nn th
other hand, should the "drys" have elghl
they could block any attempt' at resub
mission. The same Is true of Sussex
County and of rural New Castle County
while In Wilmington, a district by Itself,
the number would be even smaller.
Have you a difficult room to light?
An awkward location for a wall bracket,
or
A design of your own you wish de
veloped ?
Our 33 years' successful experience will
solve your difficulties. We will do it
well and at moderate expense.

Practically Ever)' Important
Thoroughfare in City Has
Pot for ' Contributions.
Clothing Gifts Pouring In.
Any person in the city of Philadelphia
who hasn't heard of the strenuous cam
paign which tho Child Federation is
waging to collect Christmas gifts for the
foreign orphnned and destitute children
will not remain In such Ignorance after
today, for, scattered nround on. practical
ly every Important thoroughfare In the
city are Roy Scouts standing guard over
contribution bowls, advertising the cam
paign nnd collecting funds for It at the
tamo time.
Ono little scout of a cnlcutatlve turn of
mind, stationed up at 13th and Chestnut
streets, who gathered In 30 cents during
tho first five minutes of his vigil. Is try
ing to figure out Just how much his bowl
Is going to contain by tonight. Ho thinks
he's going to establish a record.
At any rate, It Is expected the proceeds
from the street contributions will help
materially to swell the J130O the federa
tion already has collected
Tho Christmas ship pavilion this morn
ing looked llko n veritable bowor of blos
soms, for florists of the city, whfiso goods
nre too perishable to send across the sea,
donated huge bunches of American Beau
tics and great yellow chrysanthemums,
to give pleasuro to the workers striving
so earnestly to gather In gifts for the
children.
With flvo days still remaining In which
to rocolvo donations, success already Is
writ "largo upon the Christmas ship ex
pedition. Each day brings more con
tiibutlons nnd the outpourings from tho
parcel post wagon which stops ever so
often In tho City Hall courtyard these
days aro rivaling In Interest those taken
from the Black Maria.
Ono little boy, who gave his namo as
Joseph Hendrcn, came all the way from
Roxborough, Pn to bring two coats for
"tho little orphans." He didn't care who
got them, Just so It was a little boy nnd
a llttlo girl.
All hands are uniting to help. Railroads
nre carrying tho gifts to the Jnson free
of charge. Somo department stores arc
delivering them from private Individuals
to the pavilion nnd others aro doing the
packing free. The Greek .Government has
oftorcd to receive gifts for tho Ser
vians rind Montenegrins at tho port of
Salonika and deliver them, free of charge,
and tho British and Norwegian nnd
Swedish Governments will co-operato In
getting the Russian quota across the
Finnish frontier. Grent Britain also will
deliver tho gifts to Belgians In tho
Netherlands.
BRUMBAUGH FEELS
CERTAIN OF VICTORY,
HE TELLS AUDIENCE
Campaign Which Has
Taken Him All .Over State
Assures Him of Support of
the People.
PITTSBUHGH, Oct. 24,-Although Pres
ident Wilson was speaking: hero at the
same hour, a large number of persons
attended the reception given Dr. Martin
O. Brumbaugh, Republican nominee for
Governor, at the rooms of tho Brumbaugh
Citizens' Committee, 713 Liberty avenue.
Doctor Brumbaugh arrived here at noon
and was met by a reception committee,
headed by William II. Stevenson, chair
man of the Citizens' Committee.
Doctor Brumbaugh. In his speech, re
viewed his tour of the State and predicted
victory. He said, In part:
"In tho last eight weeks I have traversed
counties of this State, and have made
from 3 to 11 or 12 addresses dally and at
times have spoken on the Sabbath. I
have been received with great courtesy
by the people, who want In the ofrlce of
Governor a man to whom they con look
for a clean and honest administration.
"After eight weeks of campaigning and
after looking beneath the glare of the
red lights, I can safely say that I have
nvi ua leaai uuuui as to the outcome
of this election.
"I would slander no person In my cam
paign, for a candidate ought to conduct
himself during his campaign as ha would
If elected to the office. I have tried to
teach righteousness and decency during
my campaign. Some people have said
that my platform Is nothing but mo
lasses for files to catch on. I wnf t.
say that I don't put out molasses to
catch any of the dirty, nasty files. 1
did put out a set of principles which I
believe ought to catch any red-blooded
man In Pittsburgh or any other city or
town In this State.
"I wish to thank this committee for
Its patriotism and Its work of establish
ing headquarters In this city for tho
furtherance of my candidacy.
"I am In favor of tha conservation of
human life and I am of the opinion that
the widows and orphans should be given
an income. More and stringent child
labor and women's legislation Is needed
In tha Btate, and If elected to tho office
of Governor these measures will get my
hearty support. I always have been and
am, still strongly In favor of local op
tlon." Jjoeomodi!e
