The Manufacturer, paper published in
Philadelphia, gives some Interesting facts
concerning the Schuylkill canal. The
canal company was incorporated on March
6, 1915, with capital of $500, coo and was
opened from Port Carbon to Fairmont,
llO3 miles, in 1876 The canal had 20
locks so feet long and II feet wide, and the
trench Of the canal had depth of 8 feet
and was SO feet wide. In 1918 it was
predicted that it would be possible
in time to send 10 600 tons Of coal per an
mum through the canal, but in 1860 AZ
years later, the canal carried l 36G 687 tons.
The capacity of the boats first put on the
canal was 29 to 30 tons each. In l845 and
as the canal was enlarged second time
| snd,the capacity Of the boats we're increased
| TO lS0 tons. The railroad war rates event.
ually caused the canal to succumb and in
1870 the Philadelphia s. Reading Railroad
Company leased it for 800 years, on con-
! dition OF its paying three per cent. interest
on its preferred stock and one and a half
per cent on its common stock. But in
wrecking the canal the railroad company
almost destroyed itself The terms were
/ reduced and the railroad company con-
tinued to retain the.canal. but in 1856 it
wanted to return it to the former owners.
| This offer WAS declined and the railroad
company has since struggled along with
the white elephant on its hands, repeated
efforts to unload having failed.

THE CHARLESTON BUILDING.


The architecture is somewhat unique.
The front of the building consists of
pressed brick, with the main entrance
pillars Of the first floor and the arches of
all the windows of rough stone; the Or
namental panels and pilasters are of red
terra Gotta, as well as the gable end.
But while the Young Mems Christian
associations have been going ahead the
Young Women's Christian associations
have not been idle. Members of the
Christian Endeavor societies that
thronged Manhattan island recently saw
the splendid New York headquarters of
these earnest workers, and now the
Brooklyn contingent is well housed.
The new home Of the association is To-
Gated at Schermerhorn street and Flat
bush avenue.
1t is only half dozen years since the
Young Women's Christian association
of Brooklyn was organized. 1t has &C.
cupied pleasant rooms in the Johnston
building, at Fulton street and Flatbush
avenue, most of the time. A number of

the beginning. The late ex-Congress-
man Simeon B. Chittenden, a short time
before his death, gave TO the organiza-
tion plot of ground rs by 100 feet as a
site for building. 1t is on Schermer-
horn street, between Flatbush avenue
and Third avenue. Two years ago Cor
nelius D. Wood offered 1926, 900 to erect
building on this site as a memorial to
his wife, who had been deeply interested
in the work Of the association. The
offer was made conditional upon the
raising of 100000 as an endowment
fund, and subscriptions to this amount
were obtained. Mr.. Wood subsequently
supplemented his gift by adding $4,000
to the building fund and lot 20 by 100
feet to the site.
The building is 81 stories in height,
with facade of light colored pressed
brick. Broad arches span the windows,
which are grouped in threes, save in
the second and third stories, where sin
gle broad ones fill the archways.
The building is finished in oak in the
lower floors and pine in the upper. 1t is
well lighted on all sides, and provided
with fireproof staircases and elevator
shaft and ample fire escapes. The en-

unostentatiously that an outsider must
necessarily be surprised at learning the
details. Members of these organize
tons were among the first TO aid the
Chicago fire sufferers. Others fought
and fell in battling the yellow fever ep-
idemic that devastated Memphis and
that section of the south. The active
workers are volunteers in almost every
plan for doing good 10 their fellows.
They have missions for soldiers and
sailors, in prisons and hospitals, on the
frontier and among the Indians. The
colleges and universities of the land are
proud of their effective societies, and
one of the most powerful branches of
the Y. NJ. c. A. is composed exclusively
of railway men.
AS for the Y. W. 9. A., it has special
work in connection with hospitals,
schools and asylums, the securing of
employment for deserving women and
the establishment of free lodging
houses where they may rest secure from
the dangers of q big city.
So great seems 10 have become the in
JeTeSJ III LulS movement. WHICH may DC
termed se1nireligious and semiphilan-
thropical, that funds are constantly be-
ing placed at the disposal of its leaders,
and, as before remarked, this appears to
be the building era Of the two kindred
associations. Ii is quite awhile since
the New York Twenty-third street
branch was erected and equipped at a
cost of half million dollars, and it now
has rival in the splendid Harlem estab-
lishlnent. Of late Germantown, Phila-
delphia's handsome suburb, has put up
a fine structure, which, when thoroughly
furnished, will, it is said, be the best ap-
pointed Of its kind in the country. The
front is combination of Pompeii brick,
dark porcelain and Indiana limestone,
making a pleasing contrast with the
steep red tiled roof. The doors and bal
comics are framed and capped in copper.
The ground floor is taken up with stores.
The main entrance is under an arch OF
fourteen feet span, which leads to stair
way, giving access to the bowling rooms
of the association and the auditorium ON
the second floor.
The interior comprises reception hall,
