AARON FRENCH.

Aarcn French, the prominent Pennsyl-
wanna millionaire who has taken Such an
active interest in the progress OF the
Georgia School of Technology has made
it possible for the doors of the school to
be opened to applicants for admission TO
the sub-apprentice class.
But for this generous donation from MIR.
French il would have been impossible for
any applicants TO enter the sub-appren-
tice class before october 1st. owing TO
the lack of POUNDS for the care of a great
er number of students than are now in
that class.
The giti of Mr.. French is a direct result
of the action of the last Legislature IN
refusing 10 make an appropriation 10 n
crease the facilities of the school inns
action was taken after a meeting If the
board of trustees had decided to admit no
more applicants 10 the sub-apurentice
class unless an appropriation was made
for the purpose.
Thus il is that Pennsylvania opens
to the young men 0f Georgia the Goors
of the Georgia School OF Technology at
which they woulG have knocked IN VAN
until October list
This last gift from Mr. French causes
the total amount of mis- dogai1ns TO
reach $1,000 the previous sums being u
the textile department which was n'dde
possible through his kindness and which
was named after him when completed.
The announcement of Mr.. French's GIt
was received with delight by president
Hall and the members of the board OF
trustees and will enable them TO carry
out their original plans and prevent any
delay i'm the progress of the school,
''The following telegram was sent 10
Mr. French:

PROPOSED GRANT MEMORIAL.
Bill Reported by the House Committee
ON Library.

The House committee on library has IA
vorably reported a bill making an appro-
priation of 5000 for the preparation of
plans or designs for a memorial or statue
of Gen. Grant to be erected in Washington.
The bill upon which the report is based
was introduced by Representative Mercer
of Nebraska, chairman of the House COM
mittee on public buildings and grounds.
The report reviews the life of Gen. Grant,
saying, in part: His errors of judgment.
his failures and Affections only mark him
as human. His great work shows the
touch of divine inspiration" His strength
of character, tenacity Of purpose and won
derful endowment are referred to. and IT is
pointed out that at all times grateful peo-
pie have erected monuments to the memory
of their illustrfous dead. That no monu-
ment or memorial has ever been erected at
the national capital to the memory of this
great man. says the report, seems almost
Incredible. The parks and reservations of
Washington everywhere reveal monuments
to great men, who served under Gen. Grant,
while he, the greatest Of them all, is not
remembered in this wAy.

SALVATION ARMY FESTIVAL.
Celebration Draws Crowds to Hall
on King Street.

Tn spite of the rainy weather good
crowds attended the special Harvest
Festival Meetings in the Salvation Ar
NV Hall on Saturday night and last
evening. Those who attended were
ouite enchanted with the transforma-
ton which the bare barn-like hall had
undergone. The members had worked
hard all day Saturday to produce this
effect they must have felt somewhat
repaid at the compliments given to
them.
Three arches of cocoanut palm
branches has been made in the front of
the platform while a bank of potted
ferns and palms had been formed in the
center before banana tree with bunch
of fruit hanging. From the middle of
the ceiling a Hawaiian flag hung drap-
| ed while other national flags were ar
tistically grouped on the walls On the
left hand side of the dais was to be
seen the well-arranged stall loaded
down with the gifts of Honolulu's mer-
| chants 1t reminded one of the old
| fashioned church fairs which were SC
| popular years ago.
/ Major Wood, who was in charge, in
opening the Festival on Saturday even
| ing said that he desired publicly tC
thank the kind friends of Honolulu who
had helped already by donations OF
i goods and cash to make the meeting g
success. Owing to the absence of Cap
tains Mathis and Mills the collection
was not yet completed, so that an
nouncement of the total raised coulC
not be made for another week. A good
ly sum is expected to be raised by thu
sale of the goods this evening and PEG
pie wanting bargains should not forge
to attend at the Army Hall this even
ing Amongst the articles noticed wer
dress shirts, collars, ties, half hose, la
dies shirt waists, under vests, bureau
covers, dolls and toys, biscuits an
| jams, candy, bicycle lamps, cola
) buttons, cuff links, bachelors comforts
darning baskets, ETC., so that the va
, riety of things should suit the needs O
. all classes.
