rowbone, has just received letter
from Henry McCarter, of Greenville,
S. c., stating that Matthews had re-
Gently died at that place and making
inquiries concerning his wife and
two children, whom he had made
benefciaries of his will. McCarter
stated that Matthews owned several
farms at his death, but did not give
any estimate of their value or the to-
tai value of the property devised un-
der the will.
Mrs. Henrietta Matthews, the de-
serted wife of W. S. Matthews, and
Abraham Matthews, one Of their
children, are now living at Rocky

FINE NEW HOME
HUSTLE FOR SUBSCRIPTIONS
TO START AT ONCE
Reported In Pasadena That Architects
Have Already Designed Build
Ing of Pressed Cream
Brick

Special to The Herald.
PASADENA, Dec At was admit
ted this evening that the local Young
Mems Christian association, backed by
the state authorities in the organiza-
ton. is to start Immediately an active
canvass to raise funds for the imme-
date construction of a suitable build
ing upon the site recently purchased
on North Marengo avenue. 1t is also au-
thoritatively stated that the proposed
building will cost in the neighborhood
of $15O,00O and will exceed rather than
fall below those figures.
Immediate and drastic steps in the
plans to secure a new and suitable
building have been decided upon be-
cause of the shortneSs of time In which
to vacate given the association by the
B. o. Kendall company. which recent
ly purchased from the association the
building at the northwest corner of
Union street and Raymond avenue.
The Kendall company has given the
association until next June to move,
and in addition this afternoon the COM
pany announces that the construction
of new office and store building will
start Immediately upon the land upon
which is located the present athletic
field and basketball courts of the Or
ganization.
The association officials say that
they had better be up and doing or
they will find themselves out upon the
cold world with neither home nor lodg
ing place in which to lay their heads
and incidentally tub about 100 young
men each day.
The building will undoubtedly be a
fine one. Dormitories will be included
and the physical culture department
will for the first time in the history of
the organization have ample room. 1t
is reported that the plans for the pro-
posed building are already we'll under
way, but they have up TO now been
kept secret. 1t is said however, that
the building is to be built of pressed
cream brick and that the promoters
hope to secure some very large single
subscriptions, for which they have al
ready received something very like
promises.

verses from Henry Van Dyke. In
speaking of some of the features of the
associational program Rev. Mr.. Woody
said
Pedagogical methods are essential in
presenting denominational undertak-
ings, the promotion of fellowship in
the intimate acquaintance between the
churches comprising the body; more
preaching in the association and with
more earnestness; the magnifying of
the unity of the denominational work
more inspirational addresses to make
up for the deficiency in the range of
topics and more distinctive Baptist
preaching"
Following the address of Rev. Mr..
Woody Mrs. Ward sang "One Sweet
Solemn Thought
Rev. j. N. Field spoke on "Some
Characteristics of the Dispensation Of
the Holy Spiria." He said
What are some of the characters
tics of the powerful, invisible, infall-
able guide of the church IN Gods dis
pensation of grace? I contend that
God is no rival deity coming on an
isolated, independent mission. Christ
speaks not of himself. He is another
comforter, but not a second mediator,
redeemer, prophet, priest or king.
There is only one, and the mission of
the Holy Spirit is to reveal that one
to us. The Holy Spirit is his applica-
tion of the atonement to the hearts OF
believers. He operates in harmony
with the laws of psychology. He
operates in a manner naturally. He
does not sweep people into the king
dom by the wholesale, but as indi-
viduals and the Holy Spirit endows
the disciples of Christ with power on
high"
The session will open this morning at
10 o'clock. Rev. Robert =. Burdette

IBSEN ~ THE CAFE.
Sampled All the Cordials-A willing Writer
Of Autographs.


When Henrik Ibsen lived in Munich he
was a daily visitor to the Cafe Luitpold.
Naturally he was the object of much at
tention.
The most amusing thing about him was
the solemnity with which he used to write
his autograph for Americans who came
to the cafe. If they did not know of his
presence the waitress always informed
them. She was also willing to take cards
over to him for signatures and he always
signed them without question.
Frequently he wrote at his table and
there were usually pen and ink there. The
waitress would take over a card with a re-
quest for an autograph. Solemnly n
without glancing from his newspaper he
would put it down and write his name.
Then he would resume his reading with
out any further demonstration Of interest
in the proceedings. 1t vas very character
isticof his seriousness in all matters Of life.
When he first began going to the cafe
he started out by trying every one Of the
liqueurs on the bill Of fare. He ordered
one after another through the whole list
until he had sampled Ihem all. After
he had learned from expk aenoe the taste Of
every one he returned to his beer or coffee.
When he went to live again in Christiania
the mattresses in the Cafe Luitpold lost a
very lucrative visitor. They increased
very much the amount of their tips by their
stories about the great man and his willing
ness to distribute autographs.
