erl for the very decided alienee when
Mr. Dickson completed the rending of
too report.
In presenting the report Mr. Dickson
said that the committee since its ap
pointment a year ago had served through
a business period of crisis uud gloom,
and though in a number of meetings
it bad considered the matter nothing
could be done until the present pUn
was presonted. It was an opportunity
for accomplishing a long desired end
und the report was off-red for at least
consideration and lie hoped adoption.
The location, hesitld, is excellent, with
the route between the two proposed
bridges and the trend of business mov
ing in that direction. It was presented
In the form of an addendum to the
subscription.
Air. Davidson stated that the plot
was being sold to the board for its pnr
chase price and the gentlemen associ
ated with him would not make a penny
on the consummation of the proposal.
IT IS A MOMENTOUS MATTER.
' Luther Keller and S. Goldsmith ob
jected to immediate adoption of the
report, the former alleging that tbose
present were a small proportion of the
total number of members and that it
was reully a momentous question in
which cautiou Bbonld be exercised. Mr.
Goldsmith argued that the board
should not be obliged to occupy the
whole of the two upper flors.
The apparent disposition to quibble
over the report brought Mr. Dickson to
hii fot, and by bis speech ot ten min
utes' duration and the remarks of Cap-'-in
May later, the meeting was in
fluenced to m ike an affirmative de
cision. Mr. Dickson said;
Tbisbonrl is twenty-live years old and
for iiflreu yean has been hoping that
something would revive it and phi e it on
a plane witn similar organizations of
otter cities. Primarily tue board served
a purpcse in forming safe cicdit among its
members, but of lute years what has held
it together has teen the spirit of patriot
ism. Now, with tur I'llicieut president
and secretary, what is our opportunity?
We have come to a crisis. I'm not a
blower nor a croaker, but when we can
reiure audi a valuable property for t!U0
per foot when laud on Washington ave
uue, the old Presbyterian church parson
age for example, sells for $T5U a foot, wo
would be foolish not to affirm this report
The bull has just begun to roll in Scran
ion. If every pound of coal is exhausted
here in the next twenty year.', onr city
will yet be the premier citv of her class.
Hence, it behooves us to move and moye
quickly. Wheu will we again be able to
locate a building on the moat favorable
Bite in the city and secure the land at cost?
Now is the accepted time aud the day of
snlvation: alter the details of tho report if
you will, but don't "throw itout of court."
CAPTAIN MAY'S REMARKS
Captain May relinquished the chair
to Mr. Keller to occupy the floor for
the first lime since he bus been uresi
dent. II aittii the board s burden might
bs taken irom Its shoulders by money
raised by others and the offer is so lair
that he lu-couuturt lor it only by snt:
posing the building will enhance the
vulu of properties in wluoU tue gen
tit-men are. interested, ine erection of
such building for the board
of trade will be -said, sssist in
uernetnating the solidity of the
city. During the year the board had
been instrumental in securing the f-
voraUo vote for bridges aud Darks;
had made tho cbeapuess of ' culm fuel
known throughout .he country, and
now it should make Hs grandest effort
in considering favorably the proposal
to establish himself in its own home.
Following these remarks bnt few
members responded "aye" and all re
trained fiotn saying "no when Mr
Dickson's motion to adont the report
was repented by toe chairman. At Mr.
KelUir's suggestion a rising vote was
called and tho response was nnamuiour.
After the nieetirir Mr. Davidson an
nounced that i3."). OW in subscriptions

Eeleot Council's .Streets and Bridges
Committee Against Competitive Plans.
The streets and bridges oommlttee of
select council last night decided to
report adversely npon the resolution
directing the city clerk to solicit som
petitive plans for the proposed bridges
in order that the aity engineer may be
able to have an opportunity to oonsnlt
the various methods ot constructing
bridges.
It was the seme of the meeting that
the project was good on and would
bate been quite expedient two or three
month ago, bat it would be perilous
now for I bo reason that it might oc
casion indefinite delay in the construc
tion of the bridges. "

a number of years Mr, Soart has lived
on this side and was in all that time

character. He is of more than ordinary
intelligence and has nt various times
contributed articles on current topics
o the newspapers. During the late
Prohibition campaign in this state Mr.
Scart sent an article to the newspapers
against the umendment to the consti
tution and subsequently had it bound
in pamphlet form, which he sold at the
rate ol 25 cents each.

stated that on Snuday afternoon he en
ticed three little girls, their ages being
not over 12 years, into a shauty In the

Other News Notes.
A well pleased audience in the Jack
son Street Baptist church last evening
stoned to the farewell concert ot the
American quartette, which is about to
bet;in a tour of Lnglaud aud Wales uu-.
der the direction ot Professor Huydn
cvans. The programme of ten num
bers wns enlarged by Miss Julli Allen.
the violinist of the party, who, by re
quest, played a Welsh air with much
tlect. This, with the addition of sev
eral encore numbers, completed an
evening's entertainment that was care
fully varied and highly appreciated.
Miss Cordelia Freeman, the contralto
ot the party, was warmly greeted by
friends, who knew her as the daughter
of Rev. D. K. Freeman, former pastor
of the Washburn Street Preahy terian
church. Her voice evinces much cul
tivation, hut is rather on the order of a
mezzo-soprano. She sang with excel
lent effect Mrs. Tom's ''Waiting
Heart," with violin obligato by Mifs
Allen. It was in the duet with Miss
Kaiser that Miss Freeman's voice was
heard to best advantage. The number
was Abt's "Ilurp of the Winds,"
and its blending of soprano
and contralto . effects was excep
tionally felicitous. Miss K titer's sing
ing of Bishop's "Hear the Gentle Lurk"
gave this gifted soprano abundant op
portunity to display the resources of
tier voiee. A particularly noticeable
featnro was its volume nnd register.
Miss Kaiser's enunciation was excep
tionally clear nnd her trills and runs
true and well modulated. Mr, Burns
and Mr. Anyl, always favorites in this
city, were in superb voice, and the vio
lin playing of Miss Allen has seldom
been heard to snoh advantage.
The party this morning will take
train for New York. They will maki
the outward voyage in the stanch lo
rn nil liner, City of Berlin, Captain
Wntkins. The concert tour will be
initiated at Cardiff and contintio fix
weeks, including the principal cities in
Wales and possibly several in England.
During the tour Miss Kaiser will con
tribute letters to The Tkiuu.ne de
scriptive ot the quartette's reception
and interesting incidents of the jour
ney. The City of Berlin will lift anchor
ut 10 o'clock tomorrow, morning.

SODA WATER A NO SODA CRACKLRS.
Hard Taok on a Chain for Sunday Sodn
Customers,
"Judge Gnnster's opinion virtually
gives us permifslon to sell soda water
on Sunday," said a central city drug
gist yesterday. "If It is legal to sell
soda on the Sabbath as an accompani
ment to a lunch there is nothing to
preveut ns from selling on Sunday aud
living within the pale ot the law, for It
is an easy matter to furnish a lunch."
"B;fore next btinday you will see a
lnnch table in that bay window. Sus
pended above that lunch table will be
chain and attached to that chain will
be a lunch. For 0 cents you can have
all that lunch you care to eat nnd a
glasB of soda besides. For 10 cents
you will be furnished with a pi?ce ot
cake and soda."
What will your chained lunch con
sist of?" naked the reporter,"
"Well, 1 think hardtack will be the
most lasting," he replied.
This plan of meeting the peculiar
demands of the law iu thttcase ot sell-
ng intoxicants has lived in Bostou and
it is claimed stood the test oflaw, The
local druggist states that it is not so
much to evade the law us to show up
ts absurdities, that lie is starting a
