Smith & Dickinson yesterday pur-
chased the Paxton property, No. 1900
Chapline street, for the Carroll Club,
the recently formed Catholic social or
ganizat!on. The price paid was $16,-
600. The property is 67x132 feet. The
location is admirable and the building
is in every sense splendidly adapted to
the uses to which 1t will be put. 1t is
well lighted and ventilated, easily ac-
cessible, and in such good repair that
the cost of remodeling will be mater
tally lessened for that reason.
The directors of the club held a
meeting last night, at which the mat
ter of remodel:ng the building
was discussed in an informal manner.
Their plans have not yet been matured,
but were outlined In the rough TO a
Register reporter last night by DR.. c.
A. Wingerter, President of the club. A
force Of carpenters will be placed at
work Immediately in making such
changes, alterations and repairs as Will
be required for the immediate use Of
the members. 1t is expected that the
club house will be opened about the
middle of September or the first of Oc-
tober at latest.
The building will be fitted up with
reception rooms, parlors, library and
reading rooms. ETC. II is the intention
10 erect, as soon as possible, a large
hall in the rear, suitable for the enter
tainments of the club, the idea being
to also provide the Catholics of the
city with a commodiOus and well equip
ped hall for general use. The hall Will
be reached through an entrance on
the south side of the present building
in order that 1t may be reached without
passing through the club house. 1t
will probably be used for commence
ments, church festivals, etc. A modern
gymnasium and bowling alleys will be
equipped beneath the hall. The club
may also have a cafe, although that is
a matter to be determined at future
meetings of the directors.
I've propose" said President Win
gerter, Ito have a club house of which
the Catholics of Wheeling may well
be proud Subscriptions of stock have
been coming in rapidly, and we are
very much encouraged at the interest
which is being manifested. The club
will be thrown open to its members as
soon as possible"
