Anuradhapura and other places of great
antiquity. To those who know CevIon
only from the Sunday school books of
their childhood a knowledge of the
wealth, be auty and intelligence of this
island will be revelation. The main
court comprises central octogonal nall,
with two wings running, respectively,
north and south. The court partakes
largely Of the Dravidan style of archi-
lecture prevailing in the ancient tenn
Piles of the Singhalese throughout the
island of Ceylon.
TWENTY THOUSAND CUBIC FEET
OF the beautiful woods of the island
were used in the construction of the
cours, embracing twenty-five varieties,
among them ebony, ironwood, SATIN
wood, tamarind, calamander and other
hard and durable varieties. The flights
of steps leading to the four entrances
are adapted from designs from the
ruined temples. Cobra-shrouded fig.
| ures, carved in bas-relief on the ter.
minal stones, guard either side of the
approach. and in the originals were sup
posed to ward off the approach of evil
spirits. Small conventional lions on
| attached pillars at the side of the ter
minals, together with elephants and
bulls, are found in the original tenn
pie. Other carvings on the stones
are supposed to represent evil spirits.
At the bottom of the steps a large
carved slab, semi-circular in form, a
moonstone, in bas-relief. represents a
lotus flower open in the center, and
concentrie bands of sacred geese, foil
age. and figures of lions. elephants,
bOrses and bulls in the outer RUG. A
fabuloug beast, half lion and half
crocodile, is carved on the balustrades.

A WARNING.

There is Danger of Small Pox Breaking
Out Here.
There is no intention to create an alalm
among the people of this town when notice
is given that unless concerted effort is made
by the borough authorities and the people, as
soon as the weather permits, to cleanse the
town and take other sanitary precautions, we
may be attacke by small pox, or some other
disastrous epidemic.
The HERALD is keeping this subject fresh
IN the minds of the people as duty strongly
endorsed by the physicians,
All will admit that the town is in dirty,
filthy condition, sorely in need of liberal
use use of disinfectants and whatever the
cost may be it will receive the sanction of the
people as money we'll spent.
Let the Borough Council, in anticipation OF
the Board of Health bill now before the
Legislature, get down to work and arrange all
the preliminares for general reform in the
method of protecting the public's health
when the bill becomes a law
Let individuals act no,o. Let them begin
work by having cess. pools emptied before the
warm weather sets in and thus cut off one oi
the worst sources of complaint.
Let this warning be needed now. Small
pox has already attacked Reading and the
authorities are constructing pest houses as
fast as the carpenters can drive the nails
One pest house now contains thirty patients
and more accommodations are in demand
A medical corps has also been set at work
vacGinating all the children.
We have no time to lose. Remember the
old adage, "a stitch in time saves nine"

OF A. camps OF the town, Inc matter mas
been under contemplation for some time, but
it only developed into promising shape dur
ing the past few days and action taken by
the parties interested last Tuesday night
warrant the assertion that within short
time the first steps towards the construction
of hall will begin.
Committees appointed on site and building
have already done consider; bic decisive
work Yesterday Messrs. K. A. Davenport
and N. IL. Keller left for Reading to consult
with the owner Of the sites in view. The
result of the trip will probably not be known
until next week The committee on building
comprises Messrs. R. A. Davenport, S, W.
Yost and A. B. Lamb.
The societies interested have succeeded in
keeping the negotiations in secrecy up to the
past day or two, when the matter became
public property by street conversation and
discussion, and therefore 10 secrecy is violated
by announcing the project in these columns.
Although the project has goodbackiug aud
many friends it is not an exception to the
rule that touches all enterprises. 1t has OPP
position but those favoring it seem to have
such a good majority there is little doubt Of
its ultimate success if one of the sites in
view can be secured at a reasonable figure.
According to the plans hinted at the P. o.

this section of the state. 1t will be a hand.

be arranged on the first floor of the structure
From what can be learned by outside dis
cussions of the project there are two sites in
view one costing 50 600 and the other So 600,
and it is said the sentiment leans towards the
former.
Should the project develop into reality
the town will have a structure of which it
will be proud. It viii probably be built Of
brick On the first floor there viii be store-
rooms; a hall for entertainments, suppers,
&c, on the second, and lodge rooms ON the
third It will be heated by steam and il
Illuminated by electricity.
Some of the camp members say that be-
fore the plans for the building are finally
adopted they will suggest that the basement
Of the building be arranged for a gymnasium
and bath rooms The returns from annual
membership and fees for dressing rooms will
make quite a revenue.
The undertaking viii be large one, but
the large membership and reserve funds OF
the respective camps, together with the fact
that the membership embraces many Of the
most prominent and substantial people of the
town, will make the task a comparatively
easy one.
There is prevailing sentiment in favor Of
the project outside the membership Of the
order and there is little doubt that should
any Unforeseen abstacle arise the camps viii
receive ample aid from sources which they
now do not count upon.

last month a Hungarian was about to board

Deputy Tax Collector John Higgins inter

he had not been in the country long enough
to be required to pay taxes but rather than
60 to the lookup he proposed that Higgins go
with him to the store of Matt. Walucavage,
on West Coal street, and settle the matter
When in the store the man under arrest
handed the storekeeper tax receipt which
the latter said was correct. Higgins said that
the name on the receipt was not the same as
the one the man had given him. A warm
argument followed, during which the store
keeper struck at Higgins and, the latter
claimed, the man under arrest and another
