The Star will not receive further sub
scriptions for the rebuilding fund, now
that the association trustees have met ana
inaugurated their own plan of solicitation.

from day to day acknowledgment Will De
made In these columns of the SUBSCRIPTIONS
received by him by others of the asso-
citation. A tentative plan is now under
discussion that has in view the raising of
$5o.oO0. 1t is proposed to secure fifty sub.
scriptions Of $1,000 each. one hundred OF
$500 each. making 100000. and to raise
$4,000 in small subscriptions Of all sizes.
The contributions of Messrs. Warner and
Swaftzell, already mentioned, are pased
upon some such plan as this. At tomor-
rows meeting of the trustees 1t is expect
ed that some more definite arrangement
may be made and probably soliciting COM
mittees will be appointed and thorough
canvass of the city inaugurated. What
ever success this movement may have, 1t
is not expected that the association will be
enabled to do much more during the COM
ing fall and winter than to carry on the
religious work and to afford a meeting place
and general assembly room for the mem
bers. Unless exceptional good fortune is
encountered, or some already established
gymnasium is offered to the association,

work will be done after the summer season
is over. Meanwhile it is quite likely that
the outdoor work now being conducted at
Capitol Park will be continued.
