acres; It Is made up of 26 separate prop
erties, as follows: 11 on Chestnut street, .1
on Sth street, 4 on Ludlow sticet, S on 6th

Some estimate of the vnliiu of the prop

from tho following:

It was a flvc-story brick building, used
for ofllccs.

change hands. Their history to present
owners Is Interesting.

It Is hard to estimate exactly what this
ground can bo obtained for.
The Inrgo mntble dwelling on tho
southeast corner of 19th and Chestnut

Is likely to become the site for a largo

the Philadelphia County Medical Society.
The pioperty stnnds on a lot with 101 feet
frontago on Chestnut street by a depth

Should tho proposed building be erected.
It would make the return of active con

of this large property which has been so

MRS. DONALDSON WINS
SUCCESS IN TREMIERE'
"Million-Dollar Bride" Scores
Triumph in Musical Comedy
in Wilmington.
Mrs. Evelyn Hunter Donaldson, former
wife of Keith Donaldson, lias stepped
gracefully from tho limelight of domestic
differences Into tho more lucrative lime
light of the theatre, accomplishing the
transition, according to those who saw
her danco last night In a new musical
comedy at Wilmington, with considerable
savolr falre.
Persons who Insist on being absolutely
rorrect might say that Mrs. Donaldson
reached the glow of the footlights by
virtue of the advertising she got aH a
result of tho difficulties at 2003 Chestnut
street, the home of her grandmother,
which caused the "million dollar brldo"
to spend a few hours In a cell at Centrnl
Station some tlmo ago.
Be that as It may, Sirs. Donaldson ap
peared last night In what Is described as
a "daring dance" with the new comedy
at Wilmington. It was the "premiere"
of tho comedy, which Is entitled "Little
Mary Mack." Plays opening at Wilming
ton, Trenton and other points outside of
New York Invariably havo a. "premiere."
Nearly all of those responsible for the
play are Phlladelphlans, but that comes
In later. Mrs. Donaldson's Initial stage
appearance came but a few hours after
she had visited the courtroom of Judge
Brown, at City Hall, and after Judge
Brown finally had decided that her little
seven-year-old daughter, Dorothy, Is to
remain under the care of her grand
mother. Mrs. Elizabeth H. Donaldson.
Returning to the subject of the muBlcal
comedy, Mrs. Donaldson's "darlnff dance
was performed with John Jarvis and. ac
cording to a phlegmatlo correspondent,
'she shows much ability," The book
and lyrics of the play were written by
Delbert D Davenport, of this city, who
heads the corporation producing the play.
The muslo Is by Newton Ashenfelder,
who is of this city, and Sigmun Romberg-
The play was a success at Its
'premiere."
Girl Locked Out on Roof
Miss, Sally Manvers, tired of the day's
exertions and. oppressed by the heat,
went. up to the roof of her apartment
house on Lexington avenue, New Tork.
She fell asleep, and a careless JnKor

RELIGION AND LIQUOR
MIXED BY EXH0RTER
Negro Disappears With Collec
tion Found Drunk, Says He
Can't Understand.
"Ah'm Jes so full up wlff rcllgin Ah
don' know wat to do!"
That Is tho only rcison Charles Cam
phor can give for his unusual action. He
Is a somewhat ardent Negro, and over
since he "struck the pike" at the evange
listic meetings of the "Black Billy Sun
day" he's been talking religion 'day and
night.
The only thing that troubled Camphor
was that there "wusn't 'nuff peepll gltttn"
rellgln." Therefore, he felt It his duty
to start evangelistic meetings on his own
account. And so Evangelist Camphor de
clared he felt Inspired to go after tho
moths sent out by tho devil. He explained
his Inspiration to Sarah Monahan, a sty
lish but devout Negress, of JS35 Kuter
street. She told Camphor If he didn't
preach wlien he scented religion liko that
It would bo unfair to the "kermunlty."
So the Inspired preacher called a meet
ing in his home at 19th and Naudaln
streets. It was packed to the doors. "Hal
lelujahs" and "Amens" mingled with
soul-stlrrlng hymns, and when the meet
ing was at white heat Camphor told those
assembled It was time to show their ap
preciation by "hearty contribushlns." He
took a pudding pan and circulated. The
jingle of the coin as it struck the pan
sounded Just as sweet as the hymn which
was sung by Miss Monahan. After Cam
phor circulated through the audience he
went out to address an overflow meet
ing and the congregation sang while It
waited for him to return.
The worshipers would have been sing
ing yet if they had not gone out to look
for Camphor. He was found at 10th and
South streets. He was overflowing not
with prayer, but with liquor, the police
said and soma of the congregation sur
rounded him.
The Interest was Increased greatly for
the reason that several had missed their
pocketbooks after Camphor accidentally
had "brushed by" at the meeting. The
evangelist was arrested by Policeman
Betts, and tn his pocket was found a
purse of his choir leader, Miss Monahan,
It contained $3.
Camphor told Magistrate Haggerty at
the Utb and Pine streets station that lie
rouldni. understand It 'tall. "Of course,
we wus all stttntlln' clost," he admitted,
"but I Jlo, can' undderstan' It 'U1L"
neither could the Judge. o he held Cam
paor la t$Q0 tall tor, court.
COMPROMISE HOUSING

which will be a compromise between tho
extremely divergent views of t'oimcllx ami
tho Philadelphia Housing Committee, will

ference In the ofrtce of Director Zlcgler,
of the Department of t'ubllr Hrnllh nnd

Willi the desire of the Councllmanlc com
mittee already before him. he will be
able to work out a measure acceptable
to all. Governor Brumbaugh announced
yesterday nt Harrlsburg that all fac
tions must bo In accord before the At

to tho approval of a compromise measure.
Following the conference yesterday, ex

DR. RICHMOND'S FOES
ELATED AT VICTORY
Rector's Opponents Think They
Have Succeeded in Fight to
Remove Him.
Opponents or the Mey. George Chalmers
Richmond believe Uab have scored a big
victory today In fltolr long-drawn-out
struggle to have him removed as rector
of St. John's Kplscopal Church, 3d nnd
Urown streets. Their Joy comes through
tho nntiotinrement of Blihop nhlnelamter
that he lins declared the action of Sir.
MMimond in dismissing from membership
in the church two of the vestrymen null
and void.
These vestrymen are Charles A. Brown
and William T. Hamilton, two of the
chief opponents of tho rector, with whom
ho has hnd frequent tilts during tho last
year. Tho Bishop has decided that tho
men are members of the church, and their
friends say they ore legal members of
tho vestry, which this week adopted a
resolution asking the ecclesiastical au
thorities to remove Mr. Richmond from
the rectoishlp
Mr. Richmond, however, l In no wise
fenrful of the ultimate insult of his ef
forts to have the men's memberships nn
nuled. He s.lld today that the letter he
has received from Bishop Rhlnelander
advises that his action in dismissing the
men was declatcd null and void on tech
nical gtounds. He has, thctcfoie, writ
ten tho Bishop a reply In which he Pays
that ho will i-jcpkiin his charges against
he men to the Bishop In a future letter
In such a way that tho technical error
may be overcome
