Tuesday nieat that facade Of house Of John
larvads mother IN StratlOrd. Avon be reproduced
here, lie has sent FOR photograph Of the historic
Old building. There Is doubt. however, as 10 whether
the idea Is feasible II 1t Is not. honse with colonial
facade such rs Is seen OF some OF the old buildings

None Of the committee Is at liberty TO say who
made the subscription OF $50, 900. which. with the
,OCO before raised. viii enable the club 20 spend
100000 the elite and house. only $4,000 can
be raised on mortgage, In accordance with "A reso-
luton passed by the club. That leaves deficit Of
about $1,000. This may be- raised by subscriptions
Or taken from The regular funds Of the club. the
amount OF the mortgage may be increased 10 $40, 900

gifts of $4,000 which their club has received. The
alumni Of Harvard in this city are only half
numerous as those Of Yale. taking the representation
of each institution In the University Club iais

the alumni fund.- and also subscribed generously Tor
the new gymnasium.

much time he might to the duties Of the place on
account Of his social. business and official affairs
There Is no covert attack on Frederic Il. Coudtrt
the president. in the ticket which Mr.. Grams
