The magnificent building at the corner
of Eighteenth and Arch streets, Philadel-
phia, is a monument that tells what a
great charity Is the Women's Christian
Association of the Quaker City.

portrait is printed here, Miss Katherine
Kennedy. What she has done and what
she is doing for the benefit of other wo-

In all other institutions of this kind
more attention is given every year 10
teaching the laws of health and right
living, physically as well as morally. The
health of communities is more and more
frequently a subject of attention from
clergymen and teachers. An ailing, ner-
vous man or woman finds it more diff
cult to be hopeful and cheerful and good
than a well one.

RIVER STREETS FRANCHISE.
The Matter May Come Before COun-
ell Tonight.

The Matter May Come Before Coun-
ell Tonight.
The City Council will have the Central
Railroads River street ordinance to con-
slider tonight, but it is not certain if any
action will be taken. The matter has lain
low now until little is heard of the prop
osition, so that if anything is done, 1t will
be to get the matter off hands.
The aldermen who supported the ordi-
nance at the start have not changed their
minds and If 1t comes up tonight for
passage, they are sure to vote for it Their
belief is the city gets all it can ask when
the railroad agrees to the transfer charge,
and as it is important for the connection
With the Plant System to
be made soon, in order that
merchants may get the benefit of the
reduced transfer charges, the aldermen
consider it their duty to exert themselves
to have the franchise extended. If this
is done. the probability is the Central
will make the connection in short order,
as It will only amount to an extension
of its tracks, a short distance and through
lands the railroad will not have much diff
ficulty in obtaining
The house drainage matter will also be
brought up at the meeting by Alderman
owens He and Health officer LeHardy
have sheathed their swords on the recent
discussion of the danger to the city of
making the sewage outlets at the river
front. or. at least, they have come to an
understanding about the reasons Alderman
owens did not reply to DR.. LeHardy's
letter. which, it is stated, caused the COM
ment that appeared in the Morning News
on this subject. II is stated that Alder
man Owens and DR.. LeHardy ran to-
gether at Jones and Taylor street the
other night, the first time they had met
since the outlet war started.
Il understand your are trying to make a
personal matter of this discussion" said
Alderman owens.
"The man who said that is a -! re-
pled Dr. LeHardy.
A thorough understanding is said to have
been reached, however, before the officials
bade each other goodnight.
Neither the bond nor contract has yet
been signed by Miles & Bradt, but all
matters in connection with the commence
ment of work win probably be decided
upcn at to-night's meeting, so that the
contractors can start as soon as they de-
sire.

PARK AND TREE BOARD.
VIII Elect Chairman and Secretary
To-day.

VIII Elect Chairman and Secretary
To-day.
Acting Chairman Daffin of the Park and
Tree Commission, sent out a cali yester-
day for a meeting of the commission this
afternoon at 4 o'clock at its Office in the
city exchange. At this meeting the board
will be reorganized by the election Of
permanent chairman and secretary. There
are also several business matters Of inter
est awaiting the attention of the members.
The board as at present constituted con-
sists of Col. George A. Mercer and Messrs.
P. d. Dafin, c. s. Ellis, s. y. Theus and
Malcolm Maclean. OF these but two were
members of the original board, Messrs.
Daffin and Ellis.
Acting Chairman Dafin was DESTROYS of
presenting a report on the drainage work
at Laurel Grove cemetery, but as II will
not be entirely completed ror few days
will defer il until the next meeting. Mr.
Dafin stated yesterday that the work had
been very successful, and the entire fifteen
acres redeemed will be in excellent condi-
ton for cemetery purposes. The Council
made a special appropriation of $500 for
the work, and the expenditures will but
little exceed that amount The entire area
has been sub-drained to a depth of six
to ten feet, or deeper than graves are
ordinarily dug. The work has been done
under the plans Of the city engineer, and
has been daily supervised by Mr.. Daff1n.
II is the opinion of the acting chairman
of the Park and Tree Commission that
enough ground has been added to Laurel
Grove cemetery to meet all the city's re-
duirements for the next twenty-five or
thirty years, if not longer, saving the city
many thousands of dollars which would
otherwise have been expended for ground
elsewhere. Next year If the commission
Is retained and has the power, il is de-
signed to put the addition TO the cemetery
in first-class shape for cemetery purposes.
Streets will be laid ont trees planted, lots
surveyed etc at a cost estimated at
So 500, The city will then be able to sell
the lots and derive a considerable revenue
from the addition. 1t Is believed there
will be a large demand as soon as the new
ground is put on the market.

the construction OF tracks.
For the last three weeks Engineer r. A.

nothing further can be done. When all
the elevations are obtained, however, en-
eineers from the North will be sent here
for the purpose of laying out the terminals

will be here within week 10 take up their
part of the work. and It Is stated they
will finish all surveys by Dec. !. No time

On the Savannah side OF the river there
are many things to arrange, among them

Of the work will not be started, Of course,
until the government passes an act grant

only question likely to be raised Is as to
whether 1t viii be a draw bridge, and since
this IS the case, the act is sure to pass
