The factory foremen took advantage
of the first half Saturday holiday and

A Very Pleasant Surprise Party

On Saturday night the genial, good
natured engineer (Mr. Lane), of the
Sieg Mfg. Co., was treated to very
pleasant surprise party. Mr.. Lane and
class of truth knowers and seekers
were oonversing very pleasantly in his
home when the Windsor band ap-
preached and played some very sweet
music. To say the generous engineer
was surprised is but expressing it
mildly and he was deeply grateful to
them for this way of expressing their
esteem and respect for him. After they
had played some pieces very sweetly,
the band was invited into his house
and partook of refreshments. Such
occasions as these only tend to show
in what esteem the generous, noble
hearted engineer is held by these peo-
pie. After refreshments few more
selections were given and very en-
joyable evening was spent together,
the company departing at about 1920.
There were about so present.

Thayer Goes to Saltwater.

Link Thayer was taken to Saltwater
to serve the 20 year sentence imposed
by Judge Searle for the hold-up of the
Great Northern train near Carlisle. To
a man Of his age the sentence virtually
means life imprisonment. The sheriff
delayed his departure a few days to
enable Thayer to bid his friends fare
we'll. The prisoner has the utmost
confidence in the ability of his attor-
neys and still hopes for new trial.
He attributes his conviction to the fact
that public sentiment was arrayed
against him. and claims the Great
Northern used money lavishly to in
duce his witnesses to absent them
selves from the trial. This is Thayer's
first sentence to Saltwater, although
the other members Of the gang have
interesting prison records. The de-
tcctives regard him as the best man in
the lot and will be very much disap-
pointed if his companions do not fol-
low him to Saltwater.

Moreover, a committee was appointed

final and the new cathedral will be of
Renaissance design.
1T really made no difference to me-"
said Mr.. Flagg, (which design they ac-
cePted, though personally prefer the
Renaissance school. 1t seems to me
foolish to copy the Gothic styie of the
old cathedrals when the highest devel-
opment of architectural art in Europe
lies in the French Renaissance"
The plans for the new cathedral in
clude much more than the one great
place of worship. Twenty acres of land
out in the direction of Woodley, one of
the suburbs of the capital, have been
secured, and this has a frontage of 1000
feet on the Woodley road, the name of
which will be changed to Cathedral ave-
nue.. =.
The Washington board of street
opening has planned a number of fine
thoroughfares to lead out from the city
to the extensive grounds of the new
cathedral, and many Improvements are
being made in the neighborhood. On
the newly acquired property will be
built, beside the great cathedral, a the
illogical seminary, a boys and girls
school, two chapels, the bishops pal

canors and many smaller buildings.
The entire cost of the buildings planned
by Mr.. Flagg will be in the neighbour
hood Of 81 100000, the cathedral proper
costing upwards of s25oo.OOO
Miss NJ. E. Mann, a philan thropic
woman of this city. was the first to en-
dow the new foundation, and she gave
a piece of property in the capital for
this purpose. She and other Washing
nnians also raised the money to buy
the land. Only one other endowment,
that of Mrs. Hearst. has been received
as yet toward the immense sum needed
to carry out the elaborate plans made,
though the counsel for the founda ton
says that he has already drawn up wills
through which several millions of dol
lars will come to the cathedral founua-
ton when the testators die.
The new cathedral is to be built
upon an eminence overlooking the city

ture will be a landmark of magnitude

Prison Affairs.

The board of prison managers, in
their biennial report, gave a thorough
history of the binder Irvine business
transacted during the past two years,
saying in part:
we have increased the capacity OF
our Irvine factory from 1850, 900 to 81
100000 pounds per annum. adding new
machinery of latest improved pattern,
and making other important changes
for the gradual extension and improve
ment of the plant. We can say with
pardonable pride that we now have
one of the best Irvine plants Of it's size
and second to none in the United
Ltates. We have made gradual pro-
gress IN the quantity and quality of all
grades of Irvine manufactured, and our
product is now generally conceded to
be as good as the best Irvine that can
be found on the market.
Early the past season the conditions
were as usual Orders for Irvine were
sent in by dealers and in clubs, after
which prices suddenly jumped up. 1t
must be conceded by all fair minded
and honest men that to have Cancelled
the orders which had been received
would have been a great Injustice to
honest dealers who could have bought
elsewhere at the time orders We're
placed. at prices but little above the
prices finally fixed by the board OF
managers.
The fact that the Irvine industry has
been success to the state financially
and through it direct benefit to al!
the taxpayers. and by its competitive
effect has held down the prices of other
Irvine sold in the state, ought to be
proof that the affairs of the plant have
been honestly and faithfully con-
ducted

The clergy and descendants of Bishop

the parish register. A notable feature
of the service was the fact that the
book from which Bishop Satterlee read
the service was the same that had been
used by Bishop Claggett, and was pub

When it was decided to divide the
diocese of Maryland and the District
of Columbia into two sections an or
ganization known as the Protestant
Episcopal Cathedral Foundation of St.
Peter and St. Paul was formed, and a
board of trustees named. with Rt.
Rev. DR.. William Paret, bishop of the
combined diocese, at it's head. DR..

well-known ministers in this city. and
Gen. Casson, Col. A. T. Britton, Col.
Wilson, and eight other laymen, COM
p1eted this board.
It was decided to have plans drawn
at once for the proposed cathedral, and
DR.. Douglas, Col. Britton and Col. VIII
son were selected as building COM
mittee. To avoid the delays and an
noyances of a tedious competition, the
committee agreed upon Ernest Flagg,
of New York, as their architect, and he
was asked to submit two sets of plans,
one for a Gothic cathedral and one in
the Renaissance style.
The two plans were submitted in due
time, and the building committee were
unanimously in favor of the Renais-
sance style Of architecture The mat
ter was laid before the bishop, and he
added his approval to that Of DR.. Doug

will be 200 feet. Tie inside of the
cathedral will be built in cruciform, Of
course, and the dimensions of the in
terror are 224 by 176 feet The rotunda
il the center will be 2OS feet in height,
while the lantern inside will hang 1856
feet from the floor Of the church.
A better idea of the size OF the struc-
ture may, perhaps, be had from the
statement that more than $500 people
will be able to see and hear the bisho p
under the great roof. This is in ex-
cess of the seating capacity OF the
enormous Madison square garden at
New York. The cathedral will be
about the same size, though much
higher and more massive than the gar
den.
The entrance to the new cathedral
will be most imposing. The western
front will have great niche about so
feet in diameter, it's vaulted roof be-
ing lined with beautiful mosaics and
supported by series of Corinthian coll
umns. The interior of the main struc-
rure will be lighted chiefly from three
great semicircular stained glass win
dows in the transepts and nave. There
will also be IL windows in the drum
of the dome, which will light the up
per part of the rotunda.
The altar will stand in the center of
the apse, with semicircular window
pierced in the vault directly over it,
which, though not visible from the
body of the church, will throw bright
light upon the altar. At the end OF
the nave a pediment will be provided
for groups of statuary representing
Christ in Mercy, while at either side
of the great niche there will be smaller
inches for statues of St. Peter and St.
Paul.
Under the main dome, on the outside
OF the structure, will be a series Of coll
umns, each bearing a statue of he-
roic proportions. These statues will
represent the IL apostles and the IL
children of Jacob. The entire inside
of the church. except in a few places
where mosaics will be used. will be
decorated in freseo. SMITH d. FRY.
