teresting account OF his recent visit t6
England, Ireland and Scotland, sayint
that he had visited many churcnes
schools and converts that the architec
tural and decorative designs or th'
churches in Ireland were by far the mos
pleasing 10 his eyes and tastes.

AT the meeting Monday evening the
shareholders will. no doubt, make an ef-
fort 20 limit the number of shareholders
for the new season. for. with fine weather
on same DAYS, the club will be free from
debt, which is perhaps $500. and that Is
for the fence about the grounds, and when
this Is paid for dividends will be declared
So far this season the association mas
paid about $500 on the fence debt.
The wise ones now claim that next sea

little surplus cash In It's strong box, and
as there will be no debts. A big dividend
will be declared. For the reason the
present stock or shareholders Will make
a play to limit the number OF sharehold
