Fayetteville. N. c., Oct 1.-The remains

Der of the company declined to sign the
government pay roll or to receive his pay,
stating that his enlistment of several

Work Begins on Building at

Plans are Now Being Arrange d---S,yen Thou

in Sight.
Especial to News and observer.)


Chapel Hill, N. c., Oct. 1.-At meet
ing of the Building Committee of the
Young Mems Christian Association, held
il DR.. Venable's office in the Alumni
Building, it was decided that work on the
building for the association should begin
at once.
During the past summer a canvass of
the State was made IN interest of the
building. This canvass, together with the
cash and notes which have been grad
ually collected for the past ten years
brings the building fund TO little over
$1,000. The purpose of the association
is to erect a $4,000 building.
The building will be of brick, but as to
the other details no final plans have been
agreed upon. Architect Milburn of Co
lumbia, S. c.. who made plans for the
Alumni and Mary Ann Smith buildings
has been written for and is expected on
the Hill in a few days The committee
will then meet him, presenting the details
they have agreed upon, in order that he
may arrange the plans Immediately In
the meantime Prof. Gore is communicating
with parties for brick so that the first
Shipment can be made within the next
out for the erection of the building in
order to save this expense several mem
bers of the faculty will take charge of the
work
There are many friends of the Univer-
sity, and others who are in sympathy with
this movement, who will add largely to
! the amount in hand during this fall.
Several of the largest subscriptions are
payable when the foundation is laid Mr.
E. Mcdonald, Jr., who has charge of the
collection of these notes is busy this
week sending out calls for the first pay
ment, which is due October 1st The
Building Committee is confident that the
funds for this building Will be raised this
year. For the last ten years this project
has been talked of. But matters seem to
be coming to a head at last, and Y.
NJ. C. A. Building for the University is
seen to be a reality
The association, as an organization at
the University has never been in such a
healthy condition as now The only draw
back to it's work now, is the absence of
home, permanent meeting place. This
drawback, however will soon be removed

(Specldl 10 News al4u ODSeENeE y
Greensboro. N. c., Oct. Last night
the big printing house of j. J. Stone &
Co., was notified that the Greensboro
Typographical Union had declared a strike
unless certain demands made on the COM
pany were acceded to. The company de-
clined to accede to demands made by the
union, though it expressed its Willingness
to employ union printers and to cooperate
with the union.
This morning out of the twelve men
employed only two, the pressmen, showed
up. Even the book binders who had a
large amount of printing prepared by the
force all of whom are union men, joined
in the strike and work is entirely suspend
ed. 1t comes at a serious time for the
establishment as it is. crowded with or
ders, having over $4,000 worth of work
on hand. The printers say that Messrs
Stone & Co., declined to agree to the
scale fixed by the Greensboro Typographl-
cal Union. The new scale of prices was
submitted to the various proprietors Of
all the printing establishments of this
city on September 1st- to go into effect or
October LIST. The printing firm declined
to adopt either the prices or the hours
as submitted by the union. The Stone
Printing Company men say that the firm
of its own accord has raised the scale of
prices, has always worked in hearty sym
pathy with the union. but has reserved
the right to employ men who can and
will do efficient work for the prices and
hours demanded Mr.. Stone says that
the strike is really to force the establish
ment to become unionlZed, and this he
absolutely refuses to do. This morning
one of the men in the establishment, who
is in the strike, remarked that be was
compelled to join it or would lose his
privilege of working any where else; that
he regretted it very much, and that there
were men employed by the Stone Com
pany who were getting s15 a week aid
earning five, and he thought the Stone
Company was not in fault Mr.. Stone
claims that as he gives union men The
preference it is incumbent on the union
to supply him with competent men WHO
will earn the increased wages, or failing,
that he has the right to employ non
union men who will not only keep sober,
but will do good work.
