q Club Room for Young Men.

Mr.. EDITOR -" Wisdom resides
with old men,, but in young men is
found much strength" Undoubtedly
the wisdom of the old must direct the
strength OF the young into proper and
profitable channels. The right sort of
club-rooms would be blessing to the
young men of Smyrna. Perhaps
thoughtful citizens may establish them /
when the good likely to accomplished .
has been brought to their attention.
lst.-What kind of club-roOms are /
needed? The club-rooms should be of |
a social nature, free from evil influ- /
ences and surrounded by healthful !
moral atmosphere. They should not be |
Il church. Several departments are
necessary. A reading room, where
leading papers and periodicals could be
found; room for games, where chess,
checkers, dominOes and possibly bill
lizards might be played; a sitting
/ room, where conversation might flow
unannOyed and unannOying,-thes to-
gether, would form popular and inno-
cent place of resort. The freuuenters
of the ciub-rOOns should he regulated
! by strict rules; for instance, no pro-
family, no gambling, no tippling, no
I Quarreling. Such rules are necessary
( to make club rooms pleasant. The
control of these rooms should be in the
hands Of the "old men who have
wisdom"
2md.-Is such an institution desirable?
Home is the best of all cluh-rooms. If
young men had all the wisdom of the
old, no other club-rOOm would be de-
/ SlraOle. But we must take the world
as we find it; we must consider our
young men as they really are. At
present our 0ar-rOOmS are the places
where young men cOngregate Bar
rooms are not moral places, they are
not pleasant places, young men do not
fancy them altogether; but they are
the only convenient places spending
an evening sociablv together. Bar
rooms, however, are very expensive as
well as disagreeable club-rooms. Such
club rooms as described would beat
them on their own ground BY estab-
llshing such rooms, we can do much
toward Keeping young men in those
paths of rcctitude that lead to prosper
lty and happiness.
: 3rd.-Is it practicable? Why not I?
1t would not be expensive after the
rooms were once furnished. Several
young men have expressed a desire to
; see such rooms established, and have
said that they would be more than
) willing to help defray expenses One
said it would be a good investment for
him at one dollar u week: for he now
spends Il greater sum in bar-rooms. A
similar sentiment prevalent. Suitable
G rooms could be obtained. A man of eX-
r ecutive ability, one liked by the young
t men and trusted by the old, could with
| little difficulty. organize some such i'll
: stitutiOn as the writer has tried to sug-
gest. The attention OF philanthropiC
citizens is invited to the consideration
{ OF this matter. II.

Holiday
Goods
AT
Wananaker's

One quarter in the store is pc
culiarly a Holiday quarter, a gift |
quarter; a place where just a
little use is made the vehicle for
great deal ofluxury. tits full
now; full Of wonders; full of
pretty things; full of silly things;
full of surprises; full Of what no.
body expects; full of whatevery-
body expects; full, as it has been
full near Christmas time before.
Beginning at the very centre
OF the store, next north are two
counters, oneof themvcry large,
and one half as large, filled to
overAowing with perfumeries
and other toilet articles and i'm
plements. We positively must
not begin to mention names,
nor even classes. The only
way to get away from these
miraculous things is to break
away.
Next northwest is a collec-
ton of small things that people
used to luxury will recognize
under the name small leather
articles. About the biggest
thing there is a portfolio or
wrlung-case. POcket-books are
thecommonest. Butsuchpocket-
books Oh, yes, you can get
! good substantial pocket-books
there, with not cent of ex-
travagancc in them; but natu-
rally we are thinking of the
brighter ones. Leather isn't
fine enough. They must enamel
it, paint it, deck it out with silk
and shining silver and gold.
Every year people get worse
and worse. Every year they
must have stranger and stran-
ger things. Silk, plush, velvet
and fur bags are there, with all
their pretty and handy and cum
ming iastenings. But we must
hurry on.
Next northwest are writing
papers. Here's room for {

THE NEW BaIDGE.

Another difference Between Bust.
ness Men and tho levy Court
Committee.
Another conference was held yester'
lday morning between the Levy Courts
Committee on the new bridge at Third
street, and a number of business men
who are interested in the matter.
Among those present we're Charles
Warner of the Philadelphia, Whining
ton and Baltimore Railroad Company,
Captain Smith and David Connell of
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Com
pany, Ira d. Lunt and other represent
atives of the King Iron Bridge Com
pany of Ohio, George Sellers and George
ii. Pegram Of the Edge Moor Iron Com
pany, Philip Quigley, Colonel Euoch
Moore, Jr., and Levy Court Commits
soners Silver, Wier, Bright, Ellison,
Mshafty and Morrison.
| Colonel Moore stated that he had
made critical examination of Third
street bridge, and found it in a very
bad condition. He thought that by
spending s., 900 or $4,000 the bridge
might be rendered serviceable for two
or three years more, but under no Cir
cum stance could it be made to last any
longer If the repairs are made, 1t will
| be necessary to have the draw off for at
least three weeks while they are being
done.
Mr.. Z. Warner said that In his opin
| ion 1t would be more economical to
build a new iron bridge, than to under
take to repair the old one He was op.
posed 70 changing the location of the
bridge, as it would be directly against
the interests of the Philadelphia, Viii.
mingtou & Baltimore Railroad Com.
pany. If the location should be
changed, it will injure the company's
wharf property, and they would claim
heavy damages. Captain Smith was
of the same opinion.
Co,onel Moore stated that there is not
any objection in the lower part of the
city to changing the location of the
bridge. ,
Mr. Quigley was opposed to placing
the bridge at rourtn streer, az he
thought that it would prove disadvan-
tageous to boats, on account of the bend
of the creek In that vicinity.
Colonel Moore said that by making
some slight repairs to Third street
bridge it could be used until new one
is completed.
Mr.. Sellers was opposed to torebuildipg
Third street bridge, as he thought 1t
would obstruct carriage travel for at
least six weeks, but persons on foot
could cross at any time in the boats.
Mr.. Pegram was in favor of building
a new bridge at least thirty feet wide,
and then it would afford room for both
carriage and railroad travel. Captain
Smith ard Mr.. Warner who represent
the interests of the p. W. ~ B. Il. II.
Company were in favor of postponing
the further consideration Of the matter
for thirty days, as they thought that by
that time they would be prepared to
make some proposition.
After discussing the matter in pri-
vate session, the committee decided to
accept the proposition.

Love ana Desperation.

A somewhat sensational suicide oc
Cured near Indianapolis, Ind, on
Monday. Henry Helgenberg and Ella
Winning, both Germans, have for sew.
eral months been devetedly attached to
each other, but their marriage has been
prevented by the parents of Hell elgenberg,
who objected because of the youthful
ness of the parties, the young man being
but seve lteen and the girl nineteen.
Sunday afternoon Helgenberg hired a
horse and buggy and, in company wiCE
his Ella, went to German picnic near
the city, where they stayed until even
ing. They then drove six miles further,
purchased a quantity of laudanum,
which they divided equally, swallowed
the potion, turned their horses head
homeward, started him down the road
and they lay down in fence corner to
die. The quantity taken was not suffi
cient to produce death, bnt caused them
to sleep soundly until daylight. On
awakening they repaired to the village
Of Green wood, purchased large quan.
tity of morphine and laudanum and
swallowed it. They then lay down by
woodpile. Helgen berg died, but the
girl recovered and walked twelve miles
to the city. She avows her determine
tion to kill herself at the first opportu-
nifty.

Upon investigation into the affair, it
was ascertained that the row was be-
tween a colored man and his wife. Ex.
citement ran high and others were
thrown into the melee. The irate col.
ored woman made things damp for the
whole crowd by throwing water vigor.
orously, The matter was amicably
settled and no arrests were made.
