city the amount of funds needed seemed
appallingly great. However, after con
tinued deliberation It was decided to
ask prominent nrchltecls to mihmlt pre
liminnry plans, and after careful con
sideration thov of Architect Kdwnrd
31 Davis, then of the linn of Davis
& Hnupt. were selected.
The Peck Lumber company secured
th-- contract for construction, nnd work
was begun on tho foundation that
fir. Peter Stlpp having the stone
work In charge. Then camo on
the serious llnanclal depression, nnd
It was thought advisable to give
up hpe of erecting tho super
structure until some definite promise
of funds seemed assured. On th ' sum
mit "f the beautiful slope for months
laj the stone base for the building nnd
every malinger and friend of the Home,
realizing Its over-crowded nnd poorly
adapted accommodations for Its pres
ent needs, grieved over the enforced
delay.
Finally, one winter afternoon, Just
before dusk, a lire broke out In the
old building, and but for the provl
dental day light and the prompt assist
ance of lire companies, neighbors nnd
friends a most horrible catastrophe
would have resulted. Tho old ladles
and the little children were scattered
about the town, nnd It was not for
somi time thnt repairs wore complet
ed pi rmlttlng their return. In the
mianwhflo a house near by was rent.d
as temporary quarters.
PIIODI'CTIVK OF GOOD.
It was on the day following the fire
when n prominent resident of the city
declared: "Now Is the time for you to
get funds for your new building." Act
ing on his suggestion nnd by his ad
vice, a meeting was called, which was
atiw.ided by many citizens of wealth
nnd influence. At this meeting $S,000
was pledged In a few moments. Messrs.
John Jermyn. William Council, O. S.
Johnson, W. T. Smith, John Clelnnd,
J Attleus P.obertson, J. Ben. Dlmmlck,
I.. A W'atres and Henry llelln, jr., be
ing tho first un the list of subscribers.
Following this other subscriptions
were secured, enough to warrant th.
continuance of building. Tho work
worn on, nnd now although hampered
by lack of funds It has so far
progressed thnt the splendid new Home
will be ready for occupancy Jan. 1.
To accomplish this the property now
In use has been heavily mortgaged,
nnd this expense has, of course, add
ed to the burdens carried by the man
agement. Vet looking at the Inautlful
structure on its proud eminence and
realizing the need of Its space and
sanitary arrangements. It Is felt by
those most closely Identified with the
work that anxiety, labor and sacrifice
have been well expended if thus the
reward may bless the efforts.
The new building, exclusive of the
left wing, which will not be added nt
this time, is rapidly approaching com
pletion and will cost nearly $03,000.
It Is n most Imposing struc
ture. Architect Davis has soared no
trouble to make it In every way suited

to the, needs of Its Inmates for n Ions
tltno to come. The nrchltecturo Is
French Hennlsannce, noble In propor
tions and dknlllcd and substantial In
effect. No "frills" will be found any
where. The most rigid economy ltns
been exercised In the niattor of decor
ations, although the materials used
have been the best obtnlnable,
UIUGK AND STONE.
Tho building Is of red brick, with
white sandstone trimmings, many largo
hnndsome windows and wide verandas.
Tho stntely beauty of the massive, yet
graceful, turrets, mnlto It distinctive In
stylo nnd tho frontnge toward the up
per vallev affords a magnificent pros
pect. The extent of tho building as It
now stands Is 123 feet front, with n
depth of 140 foot, giving accommoda
tions for about sixteen old ladles and
seventy children, besides those In
charge, nnd tho corps of servants.
The Interior Is admirably adopted to
the needs of such n family. The old
Indies' rooms, ench 0x13 feet, are In.
cated on tho first door, senarated by
n corridor from their pleasant dining
room. A largo slttliiB room contains
a huge fireplace and will be furnished
In a fitting manner. These npartments
look out upon the broad piazzas nnd
are the sunniest und brightest Imagin
able. Tho left lower room on tho first llonr
Is to bo the private sitting room of the
much loved nnd respected mntron,
Mrs. A. K. Walker. The second lloor
lower rooms are to be devoted to her
use nnd that of her sister und assist
ant, Miss Solomon, whose faithful,
gentle presence Is so much appreci
ated in the Home.
THE FRIENDLESS.
The great reception room, Sfixlfi feet,
will bo a source of much Interest, not
nlnne for Its charming location and
outlook,' but from the fact that this
npnrtment will contain the one really
ornnmentnl feature of the building;
not, after all, an extravagance, but a
lovely memorial appropriately gracing
this splendid structure and giving the
keynote of Its purpose and lofty Ideals
to all who enter tho doors.
MRS. CONNKLIVS NOBLK GIFT.
This memorial Is in the form of a
mantel, twelve feet In height, reaching
to the celling nnd occupying nearly the
entire space of one side of the room.
The design Is Gothic nnd It Is richly
carved. Mrs. William Council is the
donor who places it in the Home for
tho Friendless In memory of the two
daughters, Mrs. Mattle F.dgar and Mrs.
Mary Dlmmick, who went out from the
world early, leaving a tender, blessed
memory of beautiful lives unselfishly
spent for others.
They who always had a kind word
for the old and feeble, for the little
children, for the desolnte and weary,
will now look down benisnnntly from
elaborate medallions set above the
great open fire-place, and the little
ones nnd tho used who gaze upon tho
smiling enrven faces will be told of the
two who have gone away, never more
to weep or sigh over earthly cares. Ap
propriate Inscriptions fill the upper
corners, below which in qunlnt letter
ing Is tho text: "Faith, Hope and
Chnrlty, etc.," while Immediately above
the fireplace Is Portia's tribute: "The
quality of Mercy Is not strained. It
droppeth as the gentle rain from
Heaven upon the place beneath."
The ledge of the mantel Is upheld by
four heads In full relief, two at the
right, little children with waving hnlr,
the others at the left of aged women,
their kindly wrinkled faces looking
forth with an air of retrospect and
contentment. Above these rise pillared
niches renching almost to the celling.
At either side of the fire-place are
richly-carved, high-backed seats, giv
ing a cosy, home-like appearance to
this beautiful ingle nook, with its
mosaic facing nnd hearth.
The mantel Is exquisite In carving
nnd ornamentation nnd Is entirely the
design of Mr. K, II. Davis, whose pet
Idea It was to have this unique nnd
rarely beautiful piece of furnishing in
the building which W his pride. All
who tnke an interest in the Home of
the Friendless will be glad that Mis.
Council has made It possible to afford
this feast to the eye and satisfaction
to the nesthetlc tastes, beneath that
shelter which receives so manv who
have missed tho refinements and the
loveliness of life.
LOCAL, DICAI.F.HS KEPKESENTED.
Groat satisfaction Is expressed by all
who have viewed tho interior of the
new building at the completeness which
characterizes the arrangements. The
heating, supplied ly P. U. Scott, is ad
mirable. The Indirect system Is placed
In the dormitories, elsewhere tho direct.
Tlio plumblncr, furnished by Hunt &
Conrell, is considered to bo r.s near per
fection ns sanitary modern devices can
provide. Solid porcelain sinks, etc.,
with porcelain lined bnthtubs, are used.
The combination chandeliers are sup
plied by C. U. Scott. Simplicity pre
vails In tho design, wh'.ch Is of brush
brass In o'd Flemish stsdo. The benu
tlful Gothic lanterns at tho entrance
ale 'if wioucht Iron.
The Ih-rnstcln Iron beds and tho mat
tressPB have been ordered of the Scran
ton Hoddlng Co. Tho old ladles' rooms
w ill be furnished by various societies
and Individuals. Forty dollars Is es
timated p.b tho cost of ono of these
rooms. Among those who havo signi
fied their intentions of furnishing them
are the King's Daughters of Elm Park
nnd of Grace Reformed churches, tho
Girls' Friendly society of St. Luke's
church, tho "Spinsters," Trinity Luth
eran church, and many managers. Mr.
Daniel Sllkmnn, before his death, ex
pressed a deslro to furnish the old
laillir' sitting room In memory of his
wife who preceded him to the grave but
a short time. His wishes will be carried
out by his chlldi'on, Tim children of
Mr. and Mrs. W. W. Wlntnn have alho
stated that they would like to furnish
it mtinorlnl room. Mr. J. L. Stello will
lit up un apartment In memory of his
Isto wife, who was one of the most le
loved nnd valued mouthers of the broad
f managers. It is probable that sinco
so many deBlre to provide for tho old
ladles' rooms that tho managers will
decide to furnish ono ot tho receptlen
rooms Instead,
ENCOURAGEMENT TO OTHERS.
It Is hoped thnt many friends will
offer to endow beds In the chllftrttn'a
dormitories. There nrc those whose
little ones have gone nwny forever from
tho homes whero they wero cherished
and who can perpetunto tho memory
of tho loved nnd lost by contributing
to the support of a bed which will be
called by the name so dear. Others
can give a moderate sum for o. par
ticular piece of furniture to bo desig
nated by the donor. It has been hoped
that some largo organization such ns
tho brotherhoods, or different orders
might propose to tit up tho dining room
wh'lch will entail considerable expense.
Mr. Chnrlcs Schlatter has already
given hardware for tho doors, etc., to
the vnluo of more thnti $G00, and this
generous gift has been much appreciat
ed. When the great opening of the n"W
building takes pplnco It will be n su
premo delight for H1030 In charge to
point to one und another token of nf
fectlnn and remom'branco of the poor
nnd desolate and say "Such or BUeh a
friend gave this to the Home."

THEATRICAL ATTRACTIONS.
Young .Mr. .llnyo.
When Frank Mayo dramatized Mark
Twain's quaint story of southern life,
"PiHld'nhe.id Wilson," ho gave tho stage
one of the most delightful citations of
recent years. After he had delineated
that character with consummate skill for
a time he went to his eternal reward and
It was thought that "Pudd'nhcad Wilson"
would disappear permanently from tho
staife.
Mr. Mayo's son decided that such should
not be the case. He would himself essay
the role his father had made famous. It
was no cisv tnSk ho set before himself
and ft Is creditable alike to his ability
and ambition that he Is measurably suc
cessful In his impersonation of lovablo
Davo Wilson who has worn tho village
name of "Pudd'nhcad" m long that ho
looks upon It as , distinction. It would
bo manifestly unjust to the young man
to draw too fine a comparison between
his work and that of his lamented father,
but it can. be said In all candor that
tlioso who saw young Mr. Mayo last
night wero most agreeably surprised. His
work was natural and true.
Supporting him Is a capable company
of players who assist In reproducing tho
delightfully droll people of Dawson be
fore tho war. The stage settings and cos
tumes are beautiful and historically cor
rect. Tho play will be repeated tills after
noon and evening at the Lyceum. A largo
audience eaw the performance last night
notwithstanding the unpleasant weather.

Manager Pltou makes a specialty of
placing clover people In the minor roles
of his production, and the result is a

excellence, quite unusual with tho aver
ago play producer. In tho performance
of "Tho Cherry Pickers" an excellent
example of this kind Is afforded. The cast
this season contains sucn well-known
players as Ralph Delmore, Robert T.
Haines, Nat Jones, 11. V. Ferguson. Kd
wnrd Poland, Frank Inslee, CJeorge llren

three-act musical furoo comedy and tho
fun never lags for a moment, but keeps
up to the very last, whllo throughout tho

and high class specialties are introduced

city, against the adoption of the pro
prosed general treaty of arbitration

the sincerest love of our country, the

RAGING PRAIRIE FIRE.
Two Itanchcs Are Destroyed nnd
Others Are In Hunger.
Clayton, X. M Xov. 2C A prairie
fire is sweeping over tho country south
of this point. The crass is very IiIkIi
and there has heen no rain for weeks.
The course of tho fire Is throuuh the
great cattle range helt, and for more
than two hundred miles there Is no
harrier In Its path. The wind Is blow
ing very hard from the north.
Thousands of sheep nrc In danger
nnd are being rushed to places of safe
ty. Should the wind chnnse to the
south, which Is now indicated by clear
ing skies, the danger will not be so
great, otherwise there is no estimat
ing tho probablo destruction. So fur
only two ranches have been destroyed,
but many uro now exposed.

It can bo expressed In two words
"perfect health." No woman enn look
well when she Is mndo constantly mis
erable by distressing weaknesses nnd
ailments. These things destroy tho
complexion, bring gloominess nnd blues,
nnd, In addition to tho misery created
render the woman unattructivo. No
man can appear well, work well, or do
well who Is not feeling well, Imnglno
any man or womnn trying to be pleas
ant or attractive when troubled by
headaches, tired feelings, und dizzy or
benrlng down sensations. It Is simply
Impossible.
