TALK BY MISS TOOHEY.
Bpoko on "Women of Shakespeare"
Before Historical Society.
The members of the Catholic His
torical society last night listened to a
talk on "The Women of Slmkeflueure,"
toy Miss Knthorlnc Toohoy, of "VVIlkes
13rre, who knows Iter Shakespeare well
untl who can Impart her thoughts and
Ulcus of his works In it manner neither
pedantic nor yet too uunffectcd.
She spoke of Shakespenrc's women us
being the Ideal embodiments of till that
Is beautiful and reilnlnir In true worn
nnhood. She nntil.V7.ed the moods nnd
passions of sonic of the more familiar
of ShukespcurVs women, Including
Ophelia, Juliet, the two Portias, and
HoBultnd, the most altogether charm
ing of till tho galaxy. .She took up the
character of Iuly Macbeth ami sought
to show thnt the woman was not bad
nt heart, but was II red by ambition Into
goading her husband Into the murder
of King Duncan.
Miss McCabe, of Carbondulc, u tal
ented young woman, who has recently
returned from, a three years' course In
the, Now England Conservatory of
Musk, sang two soprano solos, one be
fore and one after Miss Toohey's ttllk.
She has u wonderfully clear soprano
voice of wide range and great (legibil
ity, and charmed all who heard her.
Miss McCubc may bo heard In a song
recital In this city some time In the
future.
iTLEQD WON THE MATCH.
Secured Two Falls from Fred Marks
Last Night at Bicycle Club.
Didn't Seem to Half Try.
Dan H. McLeod, recognized as one of
the real big men In the wrestling world,
made his second appearance at the
Scrantou Bicycle club last night, and
won a match from Fred Murks, of
Brooklyn, a husky youth of 22 years,
possessed of a splendid physique.
A crowd of over 'MO, which Included
some of the best known men In the city,
was present when the two men stepped
on tho mat shortly after 9 o'clock In
answer to a call of "time" from Hcf
eree Hugh Keentin. Marks Is several
Inches taller than McLeod, who Is
short and stocltj-, and seemed tci be
in a little better condition.
McLeod wus the aggressor from the
start and kept Marks on tho defensive
throughout the first bout. McLeod
tried the rushing tactics for which he
is famous from the start, but Marks
didn't seem to be phased much by
them. Critical observers say, how
ever, that McLeod didn't half try to
put Marks down during the lirst bout
and the ease with which the latter
slipped out of what looked like fatal
holds would seem to justify this state
ment. One time in particular McLeod got a
nasty leg and arm bold on him and
kept apparently trying to force him
down by sheer strength for nearly Ave
minutes. All of ti sudden, nobody
could tell exactly how It was done,
Marks was on Ills hands and knees and
bad a hold on McLeod. The crowd
mude the welkin ring with cheers and
handclapping:. Everybody could see
that McLeod was going to win out
finally and so nobody was particularly
surprised when he finally put Marks on
his buck at the end of sixteen min
utes. The second bout was a shorter one,
and McLeod this time seemed to get
right down to business. He turned the
gentleman from Brooklyn half way
over on his back just after five minutes
had been called, and then forced his
shoulders down by resting the whole
weight of bis body on the under man's
chest.
Last night's match was for a side bet
of 5:100 and the net gate receipts.

to view at closer range the results of

Commencing at the public and rail
road bridges, which parallel South
Washington avenue, at the Intersection
of Beech street, the destructive nature
of the Hood becomes at once apparent.
Both bridges have been undermined,
and the abutments rendeied unsafe, so
that traffic Is retarded, lieyond this
point, other evidences of the .wreck
show by the quantity of timber, fence
posts and rails, chicken-coops and other
miscellaneous articles that have been
swept from their mooiings on the up
lands. FOUNDATIONS BATTERED.
Tho foundations were battered from
underneath the McGlnnls house, which
is located at a point just opposite where

MUCH NEEDED BUILDING IS
NOW ASSURED.
President Truesdnlo for the D., L. &
W. R. R. Co. Has Given $10,000
Toward Erection of a Now Build
ing Provided at Least $15,000 Ad
ditional Bo Scoured It Is Proposod
to Erect a Building That Will Cost
$30,000 Present Membership of
the Association, ,
For some months It has been known
that the building movement ut the
Railroad Department of 'the Young
Men's Christian association was pro
gressing, Nothing has beqn said about
it, however, as newspaper men have
been steadily assured that there wus
nothing ready for publication,
The turn In affairs came yesterday
morning, when Secretary AV. AV. Adair
returned from New York, with a let
ter and subscription from President
Truesdale, of tho Delaware. Lacka
wanna and AVestern Railroad com
pany, In his pocket. ' The subscription,
which wns made at a tecent meeting of
the executive board, pledges the sup
port of the company to tho extent of
jio.000 and a long-term lease of the
present excellent site at a merely nomi
nal rental. The only condition attached
Is the railroad department shall raise
$15,000 from other sources, which the
management Is confident they can do.
The history of the building movement
of the railroad association is quite
familiar to the people of Scranton. It
began some six years ago, during the
sectetaryshlp of F. AV. Pearsall, at
which time u fund of over $2,000 was
raised among the men. This has been
augmented since by subscriptions ag
gregating $2,600, so that the department
has a fund of about $5,000 on band In
cash and pledges. It Is hoped to erect
a building costing not less than $30,000,
and the committee has resolved to in
cur no debt. It will be necessary, there
fore, to raise at least $15,000 in addition
to the funds already on hand, If the
plans are carried out.
A BRICK BUILDING.
The building will be of brick and
stone, and three stories high above the
basement. It will contain shower and
tub baths, bowling alleys, shuffle-board
rooms, lavatories, lockers, and boiW
room In the basemoji. The llrst lloor
will provide reception room, public and
private olllee, reading room, coat room,
social room, correspondence room, nnd
library. On the second floor will bo
found the assembly ball, class rooms,
committee rooms, etc. These will be so
arranged that additional room will be
available In the assembly hall when
necessary, by opening sliding partitions.
The upper floor will be taken up with
thltty bedrooms for trainmen. These
will be furnished to members of tho
association at ten cents a night, and
will prove a boon to the tired train
men. The growth of the Scranton railroad
department during the past two years
has attracted mucb attention In the
association world. Less than two years
ago the department bad but 2S5 mem
bers. By three months of earnest effort
It was Increased to G33. Every depart
ment of tho work begun to flourish ac
cordingly, and It became the popular
thing among the men. The year just
past was the most gratifying in its hls
torv. THE MEMBERSHIP.
A membership of 1,002 was recorded
at the close of the year, and the gen
eral work had practically doubled. The
financial condition was prosperous, and
the religious work was making itself
felt on the men's lives. The manage
ment felt that the time bad come to
renew its plea for a now building, which
they did, with tho above result. A few
weeks more will witness the passing of
the little red building at the "Y," that
has so many years done duty us the
home of the department. Temporary
quarters will be rented, and the work
of building will be pushed as rapidly
as possible.
Friends of this practical Christian
philanthrophy who are willing to aid in
securing a new building are asked to
send their subscriptions to the build
ing or notify the secretary, nnd they
will be waited on by representatives of
the building committee. ,
A joint meeting of the committee of
management und the building commit
tee will be held In the association hall
tomorrow evening at S o'clock, when
specialists will be present to organize
tho building campaign.
As soon as the additional fund re
quired Is pledged, plans and specifica
tions will be received, and the contract
awarded for erecting the building.
