Yesterday's Tribune told of Hie
shameful and deplorable condition of
the Young Men's Chrlstlun Association
building, and already there have been
many letters received from generous
persons asking what could be done to
rectify this condition. The .remedy Is
offered In the present plan for raising
a fund to Finish und Furnish the build
ing. chance for tho Children.
If any young boys or girls choose to
do a good act they can give some kind
of a home entertainment or club to
gether, or collect money from their
friends. Then If these little ones care
to write a brief letter about It The Trib
une will gladly publish It.
While even so small a thing as 1
cent or even a postage stamp will be
received and acknowledged, there are
many who can afford 10 cents, $1, $.",
$10 or $100. A few of these large en
closures will soon swell the fund, but
whatever sum the sender thinks he
or she can afford will be Just ns grate
fully acknowledged In The Tribune's
columns as a check for $100. The daily
acknowledgments will be for money
received up to C o'clock on the previous
evening.
In INN" tho association building was
only partly finished and furnished by
the Judicious expenditure of $:i.00O. Since
that yeur there Iras been no outlay ex
cept to I:p: ; the building und Its con
tents In repair. The members pay less
than one-half of the yearly expenses;
the balance Is supplied by generous
Scrantoii men und women. When it Is
considered that It costs about $!i,000 to
run the association one year, the
amount subscribed during the last
seven years may be readily ascer
tained. What It Doesn't Need.
The nssoelatlon Is not hamperpd
through want of space, snlurled olliclitls,
reading matter, free educatlonul facili
ties, entertainments and that sort of
thing. Of these It has nil It needs. Hut
It does need decent furniture, pleus
Ingly decorated walls, comfortable bath
rooms, a renovated gymnasium and
many other things of a like nature.
Now wlK-n It Is considered that Its
benefits .no enjoyed without restriction
upon religion or nationality, rich or
poor, when It Is considered Unit In a
given number of years It hns accom
plished more good than any similar or
ganization In the world, It does not
Heein possilde that a Sernnton public
will stand Idly hy while the association
is In need.
What the Young Men's Christian as
sociation hns done for hundreds of
resident nnd strange young men In this
city Is too well known to Invite argu
ment. It quite uaturally follows that
a debt Is owed to the association. There
is now an opportunity to square the
obligation.

THEY WERJUMKRS ONCE.
Duvls Says Miss Wilcox Slundcrcd Him.
He Wunts to Uccover S,(M( from the
lady Who Sued Him for llrcuch of
Promise.
Herton K. Dnvls, a Providence con
tractor, yesterday began proceedings
to recover damages from Miss A. Muy
Wilcox, who, he charges, has slandered
him und Injured his reputation and
business. He usks $5,000 damages.
Miss Wilcox resided' with relatives
near the boarding place of Mr. Davis,
and they became fast friends and Mis:)
Wilcox alleges that Mr. Davis some
months ago asked her to become his
wife and she consented to do hlni that
honor. The ceremony was never per
formed, and about a month ugo Miss
Wilcox begun proceedings against Mr.
Davis for breach of promise nnd mimed
$10,000 us the balm necessary to bring
peace to her lacerated heart.
lii a newspaper interview bearing on
the breach of promise ense Miss Wilcox
Is quoted as follows: "lie (referring to
Mr. Davlsi made Indecent proposals to
me which I resented us any honest wo
man should, nnd this is the reason that
lie broke the engagement." This state
ment is the foundation of the present
suit for slander. Mr. Davis says that
the statement Is wholly false, but that
nevertheless Miss Wilcox persists in
spreading It broadcast to his great In
Jury, lie says that he conducts a con
tracting business amounting to $50,000
a year, and that the stories that are be
ing put In circulation by Miss Wilcox
have seriously uffected Ills business.
When the breach of promise suit was
begun against him his attorneys, Hols-
lander & Ynsburg, succeeded In having
the capias in the suit nbated. which put
an end to the action. It lids not since
been re-coniiiieiiced.

HE ONCE BEFRIENDED HIM
.
For an Honor I.oun of $500 Thirty Years
Ago .Millionaire Curcy I'ojs It a Hun
dred Pold-Story Reads Like
a Honiuncc.
An unexpected and unusual good for
tune which smacks more strongly of
fiction thnn reality lias fallen to the lot
of Dr. Allen N. 1ete, editor of the
Sunday News. He bus been willed $50,
U0U by a California millionaire of Loii
Angeles, who had been befriended hy
ir. l,oot( over thirty years ugo. At
that time Dr. I,eete loaned Henry H.
urey r,uo. Mr. Corey disappeared and
nothing was heard of him until Mon
day, when Dr. 1 te received from
the deceased's attorneys a letter telling
him of bis good fortune.
The details of the uli'ulr reveal nn
Interesting story.
In Newurk, in lSCl', Dr. Leele binned
Carey $500, which the latter used In
opening a billiard parlor. The business
proved unprolltiible, was attached by
the sheriff and Cnroy disumieared to
iarts unknown. Within a few years
Dr. I,eeto abandoned any prc-vloun
hopes be might have had of hearing
from the man he had befriended.
Contents) of the Will.
The letter from Hie California attor
neys hud been sent lo Newark and for
warded from ithat city to Philadelphia
and then lo Sernnton. It rtaled that
Mr. Carey left an estate valued .it from
0,000 to $1,000,000, and at the time of
his death was considered one of the
wealthiest ranch owners of the state.
The letter contained an uhrtl.lot from
Mr. Carey's will which read us follows:
"And 1 furt her beiiieath to Allan N.
l.i'i te, who, over a iiuarter of a cen
tury ago In Newark, N. J., advanced
me $500 (to which 1 uttiibute my for
tune) the stun of $50,000, which 1 con
sider a fair return for Hie acconnnoda-
loll."
It was further provided that in the
event of Dr. I,oeto being dead the sum
was to be delivered to his heirs. If
there were no heirs the money was to
have been given to such charitable in
stitution us the executors deemed
proper.
Dr. Leete wired the attorneys Moiubvy
evening that be had received the letter
ind would leave for Los Angeles as
soon as lie could arrange proper proofs
of Identification. To this message he
received the same night a telegraphic
acknowledgement.
Yesterday Dr. I,eete was engaged In
