delegates from other orders and others
were pressed into service TO aid in the
routine work.
= The afternoon was spent in receiving the
reports of collectors but the results of the
canvass were not given to the press.
Charles +. Crocker's appearance among
them added to their enthusiasm. rs well as
their collectors, ability, and results nave
been little more encouraging. One OF
tile collectors deserves special mention for
his example to his colleagues. Henry Mar
Tin frcm the first has done more downright
haid work than any of the others, and he
has done it under circumstances and with
a zeal that put the others to shame.

extended propositions to be set on foot

time | am in favor of giving the Sketch
Club a chance to show the public what
critics may do and l can assure them IN

far that viii not meet their tastes.
"Tlis is not all talk, L assure yOu; for
us,uey may be plenty, and the erection of
another arch was proposed some time ago

upon Is being praised by nearly every body;
but to suit all tastes various designs and
