SOMETHING RADICALLY WRONG.

There is something radically wrong
with the mail service between this city
and the metropolis, This office yes
terday received the Portland papers
of Sunday last. just tive days out on
a hundred route; and there are
other discrepancies to account for in
the same territory, such as the carry
ing by Of Astoria mail. and its return
on later trains from Seaside and 9TH
er points to the westward. Just where
the laundering lies cannot be pointed
out, but II Is becoming serious enough
to Invoke very definite inquiry from
the postal authorities charged with
the remedying Of such faulty service.
And we hope the investigation viii
begin without loss OF time.

That New Booklet.

BY far the prettiest thing evel
published in the way of souvenir
book for Greeley is the one just put
on the market by the Tribune. The
title, "Greeley Up-to- Date is en-
bossed upon a light brown cover in a
neat design. There are twenty EIGHT
illustrations of things in and about
Greeley. Many of the pictures are
absolutely new and have never be-
fore been seen in print any place.
The inside of the booklet Is SO
pretty that no word picture can do
full justice to 1t and it must be seen

The booklet sells at 25 cents a
copy at the Tribune office or at the

A Boy Choir.

Six months ago boy choir of
twenty members was organized In
the Congregational church with Miss
Kathryn Darby as leader and d.
rector. Miss Darby has had a
thorough musical education and has
had excellent results in training the
boys. The lads take so much inter-
est in the work and have practiced
faithfully. They sing old classical
music, much of it of the sixteenth
and seventeenth century, and one re-
cessional is a thirteenth century
carol. There is no music that
reaches the heart like the fresh,
sweet voices of young boys.
After next Sunday the boys will
appear in full vestments of chorister
boys and sing at every Sunday even
ing service. On Friday of next week
the boys will give Christmas con-
cert on which they have put many
weeks of hard work. They will be
assisted by the church choir and Mrs.
ID. d. Hugh.

Picture Is Not a Likeness Of

Directly underneath the Mcclure
portrait is modern signature OF
Mrs. Eddy, which might give the
impression that it had been written
on this photograph by Mrs. Eddy.
This of course could not possibly be
true since the portrait is not like
ness of Mrs. Eddy and never was in
her hands. Beneath one of the
genuine portraits appended to this
statement, we publish facsimile OF
Mrs Eddy's signature as she wrote
1t in 1882.

Greeley may shortly have one of
the finest, if not the very best sani-
tarium in the country. and one of
the best tuberculosis sanitariums in
the world. Such, at least, are the
plans of d. A. Camield and DR..
George R. Pogue. The place will
be located on a part of the Arm
strong farm, southwest Of the city,
part of which was recently pur-
chased by ten Greeley men for
country club site.
The buildings will all be con-
structed on the most advanced prin-
ciples for treating the Illness, and
no patients except those in the ear
liest stages of the disease will be
taken into the place. These will be
required to take the most rigid care
of their expectorations-said to be
the only source of contagion in the
disease-so that there will be no
danger from this source.
The main building will have al
east frontage of l16 feet and south
frontage of lO6 feet. Each wing OF
the L will be about forty-tive feet
deep. On the east and south sides
of the building there will be a wide,
open veranda, for two stories, but
none for the third story.
Besides the main building there
will be four large pavilions, open
to the south, to permit free circula-
tion of air, and the heat and light
| from the sun. The sleeping apart
ments of these pavilions will be so
arranged that on warm nights the
beds can be pulled clear over to the
south edge of the building. and as
the nights grow cooler the beds can
be moved back away from the open
side of the building. The back or
north wall of the pavilions will be
solid, and this is really the only out
side wall in these buildings. In
stead of walls canvas curtains VIII
he provided on the south side OF the
building. These will be pulled
down about time for retiring and
again raised when the patients are
all In their beds. This will give
the same conditions as sleeping in
the open
In the center of each pavilion
there will be dressing rooms, en-
closed. and heated from the main
building, so that the patient can
dress and bathe in warm room.
The main building will also be
light and airy, and will be intended
for those who are too timid to sleep
in the Semi-open.
Besides the larger buildings four
or more cottages of two rooms each
will be built, for those who desire
more privacy.
The institution will not be one of
charity in any sense of the woro,
and only class of patients that can
afford to pay for the very best of care
will be taken in.
The grounds will be laid in
beautiful parklile effect.
The company will be capitalized
at $3.50, 900, most of which will even
tuallv be put into buildings and
grounds.
