HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH NRIIUHD'S DREIM IS REALIZED 111 IICK Famous Sculptor Reveals His Clois ters in New York For Charity Special to The Telegraph New York, Dec. 6. George Gray Barnard, the Pennsylvania sculptor of the famous groups in front of the Cap itol at Harrisburg, and who has lig ured in a number of sensational inci dents in connection with the contract and its carrying out, has at last real ized the dream of his life and erected a sort of Gothic shrine on the heights at Fort Washington avenue and One Hundred and Elghty-firat street, New York city, in which ti place his Gothic art treasures gathered by him in the south of Granee. . Barnard did not expect to reveal the unique building to New York for .several years, but in view of the neeus of French artists he has decided to open the "cloisters," as he calls the museium, to the public for the bene fit of the destitute wives and children ofc French sculptors who are serving at the front. For the first month an admittaace fee of $5 will be charged except upon Saturdays and Sundays, when the fee will be |2. 'So long as money will be paid to help the wives and children of the French sculptors at the front, so long shall I allow a fee to be paid at the door, and when this condition no longer exists the chapel will be free to all." Will Sell One Weco The sculptor will sell a wonderful fifteenth century Virgin and Child lor the benefit of the French families, but the exhibits and the cloisters themselves will be kept intact. Those who have been in the very plain, bleak, brick structure which he has built with so much enthusiasm, jnar vel at i, for the building, which Is unique and without a counterpart in the world, is largely Barnard's work. Scarcely a brick in It but has been thoughtfully placed by him. Some times the bricks have been placed and replaced until just the right feeling fofr the arch or the line has been ob tained, for Mr. Barnard and his work men have been woorking in the an cient way, trying to secure a fitting background for the ancient carvings. These carvings, which comprise the pillars and capitals of the cloisters, as well as virgins, saints and martyrs In the round and in relief, are in the loftiest vein of Gothic art. Has Chtirclily Appearance A description pf the cloisters notes that the side aisles of the cloisters cor respond in this setting to the aisles of a church and the enclosure of the cloisters corresponds to the nave. The interior is in fact perfectly churchly in spirit, and there is no lieason why, were it consecrated, Mass could not be celebrated in it. The main altar contains a fine antique painting on gold, and- above it is a gallery which would serve adlmarably as a place for a concealed choir. There are two side chapelsc, one of which contains one of the greatest treasures of the collec tion, a twelfth century carving of the Chirst in wood of exquisite preclous ness of workmanship, and some old stained glass taken from the Cathe dral of Toul in 1870. The second remarakble early Pieta in wood. In the center of the nave is the tomb of one of the knightly crusaders with his shield and his chain armor beau tifully carved. Most of his capitals and columns come from the shrine of St. Michael |de Cuxa, of the ninth century, and it will he remembered that when the French government heard h had bought th remains from the peasants, who used them in their barnyards and celdurs, there was a great outcry and their confiscation was threatened. Housed where they are they represent the triumph for Barnard's prsistence, and help to make up a building which is Barnard in exery brick and drop of mortar. • Buy From Home Merchants Urges Commerce Chamber "Be cautious reardlng placing or ders with agents and nonresident dealers," was the warning issued to day by the Ilarrisburg Chamber of Commerce to-day.

In the opinion of the officials of the Harrishurg Chamber of Com merce buying from home merchants is the safer way.

VPP»^\ / tyJOHW FLEMINGWLSON < {{&))(( )) V p|^Wi PETROGRID DOES NOT iff FILL OF LODZ Austria Reported to Have Asked Russia For Terms of Peace Hy Associated Press London, Dec, 7, 11.85 A. M. —A com parison of the reports from Berlin and Petrograd leads to the conclusion that the Germans agalri occupy Lode, from which city they were driven on their lirst retreat from Warsaw. Berlin makes positive announcement that Lodz is in their hands, while Petro grad admits that the situation there la desperate. if the fall of the city is.a fact, it In iicates that communication with War saw again Is seriously menaced, but a 'emiolflelal statement from Petrograd leclares that the Russians are strong nough to hold the invaders in North •ni Poland and will content them telves with doing this while devoting •heir main energies to the reduction of i Cracow and the invasion of Hungary, DECEMBER 7, 1914. Hungary, according to reports from the Russian capital, is the weak point in the arinor of the Teuton allies. These messages from Petrograd say I that even as early as the tiipe of the fall of Lemberg, Austria asked Russia for terms of peace. The story Is again revived in Petrograd in the form of u report that the Hungarian prime min-> ister, on a recent, visit to Emperor Wil liam, demanded better military pro | tectlon for Hungary, lack of which i would cause the loss of the kingdom. Diplomatically interest is centered in Home, where the statement of | ex-Premier Glolettl that Austria planned war against Servta In 1913 j has caused something of a sensation.
