Meeting Last Night-Colleg Hill Prob
lem and the Parkway Discussed.
The Blackstone Improve ment Associa-
tion, with an eye to the city's welfare,
met in Wayland Chapel last evening and
discussed several important matters
which are agitating the public mind. 1t
was big meeting ana very enthusiastic.
A High School site on the East Side had
been selected, the committee reported, on
the corner of Alumni avenue and Hope
street, but no definite answer had been
recei we'd from the authorities to whom the
petition was presented.
Secretary Willard T. Hatch sub
mitted an admirable plan for a
viaduct road from Market square
to Benefit street, OF easy grade.
BY it the slope is heightened and the
grade would be but six and one-third feet
to the hundred. Mr.. Hatch did not think
counterweights for the car service would
accommodate the riding public and an
easy grade such as his plan provides would
prove most acceptable for street cars,
vehicles and pedestrians. A discussion
followed and a resolution was passed
and petition inaugurated, to be
submitted TO the City Council, for the
adoption OF some such plan. IL carried
out, it will be necessary TO take about
5000 feet from the Van Zandt estate on
College street.
The proposed Blackstone boulevard came
in for considera BILE discussion and the city
engineers plan, to be presented this even
ing, was carefully considered. reso-
luton was adopted TO the end that the
association favors more natural treat
ment of the center of the boulevard.

i have been look
ing over the un-

glancing them over,

like Christmas.

attached, silver candlesticks, dainty cups
and saucers, Dresden china frames
for portraits, china clock, trays
and ring stands, sets OF seals
and sealing wax, little Greek
lamps of silver; cut glass viniagrettes,
paper weights, stamp boxes, paper cut
ters, card cases, end expensively bound
prayer books are a few suggestions for
Easter presents.
Prayer books bound in lizard and snake
skin are coming to the fore, while prayer
books in ivory and in silver are very
handsome and expensive.
Among the Easter offerings, we have no
word to speak of candy, for that is never
regarded as old fas hioned and out OF date,
and the gift of a box of choice bou-b bons
would not be taken as an insult. Oh, no.
Eggs In silver, painted china, or the
blown shells dyed or decorated are apprs-
ciated by the wee ones who solemnly eat
all the eggs they possibly can on Easter
morning and compare notes with their
friends for a week to come. Physicians
have pronounced some OF the candy, and
colored sugar eggs as unsafe for children
TO eat, so look out for the babies at Easter
time.
The seasons millinery hasn't settled
into any definite, Interchangeable styles as
yet. The Dutch bonnets, walking hats,
English round hats, Trilby hats, Napo-
leon hats, turbans, and the big lacy
straw hats are among the spring hats
seen at openings. Flowers were never so
tantalizingly natural as this season. At
many of the openings / couldn't tell
which were the real and which the artif-
cial flowers, except by a near inspection.
Parasols! Gay, gorgeous, dainty, rich,
elaborate, and beautiful are the adjectives
that describe the wilderness of sun-pro-
tectors for this season. Some of the
parasols are entirely for effect, for they are
made OF silk tissue crepes,
chiffons and laces, so thin and
fairy-like, that they afford little
or no protection from the merciless
rays of OLD Sol, who spares no one; and
who cares no more for the pink and white
complexion of this seasons beauty
than for the parchment-like skin
OF an old salt. Artificial flowers
with their foliage are going to be
used as trimming for the shade and will
even ornament the handles OF some of the
daintier creations, and violets, of course,
have the preference. Some hand painted
moire parasols were gems, showing
French wreaths, Cupids and French knots,
and they are horribly expensive. Lace
sppliqued TO the moire back grounds
makes very rich effect. Rustic and nat
ural wood handles are CONNIE il faut,
though silver and Dresden china handles
will be carried.

A charming newcomer to Providence
Ogarita Mabel Stevens, a belle of Pittsburg
Pa, before Mr.. Dover wooed and won her
and brought her to this city. Mr.. Dover,
who is senior partner of the manu-
featuring jewelry concern OF Dover
X Pritchard is well known among
the younger business men about town
and is credited with being the happy
possessor OF one OF the best tsnor voices
hereabouts. SHOULDN'T wonder il his
fine voice contributed much to his sue
cess as a sutior to the hand of the charm
ing Pittsburg girl, whom, a little bird
tells me, be first met at Narraganset last
summer and at the earliest opportunity
urged his suit in far-away Pittsburg.
Mrs. Dover is daughter of ex-Councilman
w. &. Stevens OF the Oil City, at whose
fine residence on Grand View avenue,
Duquesne Heights, the wedding took
place. She is a member of Grace Episco-
pal Church, OF which she was prominent
in the Guild, and her rector, Rev. DIR.
Coster, tied the marriage knot and has
given her letter to Rev. Floyd Tomkins
OF Grace Church in this city, which Mr..
and Mrs. Dover will now attend. The
wedding journey began after an elaborate
lunch and closed with the arrival
OF the young couple in Provi-
dence on Saturday. Mrs. Dover
is personally most attractive and
she has been finely educated, being grad
uated from the Bowman Episcopal Insti-
tute at Pittsburg and prominent school
in Philadelphia. understand that, while
laying no claims TO boing "new woman"
she is thoroughly up-to-dste, is a devotee
OF the bicycle aud takes to baseball en-
Enthusiastically as about every wholesome
American girl does now a days.

Ups and downs of life.

Ups and downs OF life.
Clara Louise Kellogg. the sweet singer
Of years gone by, is living in utter poverty
in New York. She has long since lost her
voice, and her one time fortune OF
81 ,0O0, 900 has all been swept away through
unfortunate speculation.
1t is too bad, you say, but every day you
will see or hear some OF the strangest
things for which there seems to be no ac-
counting. well known actor was in
town the fore part of the week who
asked me il / could explain why,
after a careful accumulation OF years,
he had saved enough to pur-
chase 1900 house in New York into
which his family, consisting of wife and
little six year old boy were comfortably
located, that within a month the arch
angel, Death, should come along and
claim not only the boy, but in a week
after the wife and mother.
There are some things you cannot ex-
plain II you would, and there are Others
which you couldn't explain anyway. A
friend of mine was relating the incident
of how Duncan Harrison, formerly Sulli-
vans manager and co-worker on the
stage, had been kicked by the ex-cham-
pion in the back and off q piazza
TO the ground 20 feet below. For
the time he was psralyzed, a bone
being fractured in such way as TO press
against some portion OF the interior
anatomy. At the Massachusetts general
hospital he was successfully treated and
regained his health, but never expects to
be the man he was before the happen
ing. At the time of the assault the
papers referred to the matter as
an accident. But here is where the unac-
countable part OF human nature comes in.
The other day Sullivan, who Is stopping
with his sister in Boston, sent to Harrison
for the loan CT $40 and Harrison kindly
accommodated him.
Today a man is proprietor; in year
from now his former employe magnani-
mously gives him job. So the elevator
OF existence goes up and comes down
again. No wonder Mr.. Shakespeare re-
marked that Gail the worlds stage, and
men and women only actors" etc.
Under such circumstances IL isn't best
to fly too high, for il you have to
drop you won't have such long ways to
fall. IL isn't the most deserving who
get the prizes. Education and
brain force against opportunity
and superior muscle often is
second in the struggle for money, the
potent, all powerful thing TO which men
bow.
1t is happy thought, however, to
people who have disposition and tempera-
ment to withstand all the discouragements
OF life, and by laughing in the face of
frowning fortune, that they have some
ing which cannot be bought with silver
or gold, and wherever they may be in the
life elevator, up or down, it is all the
same to them.
The very worst sidewalks for pedes-
trians will be found in the city OF Bos-
ton. No wonder the chiropodists thrive
there.
But about the ups and downs OF life.
IL doesn't cut much figure, after all.
You don't have TO be way up or way down
TO understand that you are going through
life just once. 1t behooves you TO get the
best while you are going, and this applies
TO good many things besides food.
Shoes, for instance.

Every feminine has in her possession
relicts OF parasols whose handles have
been too pretty to consign TO oblivion
and the ASH heap; and any one with
little ingenuity could have a
parasol to match all OF their sum
mer gowns by ripping out gore OF the
old covering and using it for pattern to
cut the new cover. 1t is very easy, only
you must be careful to cut the cores alike
and to stitch them together in straight
seams.
