SIX COLLEGE CLUBHOUSE.

Joint Building For Organizations Of

A nine story house il q York for
college men. the lower laird OF which
will be common 10 the New York
graduates of six New England insti
tutions and the other six-nlnths ap.
portloned, n ninth apiece. to the grad.

latest idea In clubhouses. says the New

In East Twenty eighth street, says IL
has been received with enthusiasm by
New York graduates of the six instltu
uons-Amherst, Brown. Dartmouth

gy, Wesleyan and Williams. The New
York men who have attended each of
them now have clubs of their own, the
average membership of which is about
300 That number makes good sized
club but not large enough to provide
the advantages of the houses of the
Harvard. Yale and Princeton grad
yates.
Five hundred thousand dollars is the
amount which 1t is planned to raise
among the members of the six college
clubs for the new building. With 300
members to club, this means that
the composite New England organlza.
ton would start out with IA member
ship of 1900, and those interested in
the plan think that this number could
easily be Increased to $500 or 5000.
The additional members would be
drawn from graduates of the instltu-
lions named who do not at present be-
long to the clubs bearing the name of
their alma mater. but would do so
II the proper facilities for a clubhouse
were offered,
The site suggested for the house Is
In or near College row or Clubhouse al
ley. as West Forty-fourth street be-
tween Fifth and Sixth avenues has
come to be known. In the nine story
building considered there would be
room enough for billiard and smoking
rooms, bowling alleys, squash courts,
q large dining room, an assembly room
and sleeping apartments. To these
all members would have access, while
q fioor apiece would be reserved for
the preservation OF the half dozen col
lege atmOspheres. The maintenance
OF each Of the college floors would be
left 10 its frequenters. while the gen
eral administration OF the building
would be looked after by a house COM
mittee made up OF representatives OF
each OF the component clubs,
II the scheme proves to be a success,
It is possible that II may be initiated
BY graduates of colleges with INSULT

the relative values stated. McEuen
said it was n matter of hedging by the
council In order to let the Journal
man have the printing at any price.
He said there was no use of having
competitive bids II the higher priced
one was to get the work. He said
the whole thing was a farce. He
then demanded an aye and nay vote
in order TO put each man on record.
The motion was voted down, Barr,
Hedal, Bedell, Landt and Wright
voting nay and Rasimer and McEuen
voting aye for the lowest bidder.
The bids we're then referred to the
committee on printing which Mcl1uen
said was more powerful than the
council itself and the action was
done in order that the Journal might
get the work. MIR. Landt stated he
did not know the relative value and
thought it wise to look into the mat
ter and claimed he had no other
motive for his action.

Jared after weeks of incesSant labor
in preparation for the dedication of
the beautiful church which he had so
much to do with planning and build
ing. Mr.. Nicholson readily yielded
to the interviewers, and told how his
dream had followed him wherever
fhe went, SO that in any place where
there was a church at all noteworthy
from an architectural or structural
point Of view, he wanted to
Investigate its strong points and its
Weaknesses. Mr.. Nicholson did not
say that unlike many dreamers he
possessed the faculty of inspiring
others with his dreams and ambition
for achievement. That much has
been told in better ways the past
ten months.
Some time last winter Mr.. Nichol-
son went to Duluth to consult Mr..
Austin Terryberry, who, with num-
erous other architects from various
sections Of the country had supmit-
ted sketches or plans for a church.
Mr.. Terrybury won Mr.. Nicholsons
good will from the first by his will

mitted or suggested to him by his

went over details point by point, I'M

ing talk to certain timid people who
had feared that concrete might
prove unequal to the test it was put
to under the weight of several hun
dreds of human beings. Mr.. Mich
olson told how he knew almost every
block that had gone into the building,
and explained how the great weight
OF the floors and galleries was sup
ported by massive steel beams and
trusses ample for double the load
they would ever be called to carry.
He lead up with his talk to the intro
duction of Lieutenant Governor
Eberhart, who had responded to the
invitation of the church and come
up from Mankato the evening be-
fore. Mr. Eberhart congratulated
the congregation on their beautiful
building and paid his tribute to the
pastor, with a little side play in joe
ular vein at his associate on the plat
form. Secretary Schmahl. The
speaker of the day, Oliver w. Stew
art, followed with an address on the
subject of building, leading up to
the presentation Of an opportunity
for the congregation to pledge them
selves towards the unpaid cost of
the new church. Without begging
or undue urging the response came
in large subscriptions at first, and in
a very short tine it was announced
that four thousand dollars had been
pledged. Practically all Of this was
by members of the congregation.
A large audience was present in
the afternoon at the platform meet
ing. the pastor inviting Revs. Givler
and Chambers to seats beside Mr..
Stewart. After song and prayer,
the pastor explained the absence Of

character by their labor and self
denial they had labored in vain, and
that if the building of their church
did not help every other church in
the city. they had better not have
built a church at all.
A brief submission of the case of
the church as something worth help
ing to pay for, resulted in the mem
bers of the church and public
spirited citizens pledging an addi-
tional $4,000, which added to what
was paid in the evening makes the
total for the day in pledges and
cash in excess of $4,000. This beats
all previous records in this city in
the way of church or any other
enterprises.
Concerning the matter of ways
and means, it is particularly note
worthy that all of the labor on the
church, approximating $4,000, has

ing plans.
Just how Mr.. Nicholson managed
to convert his congregation to the
idea of replacing the little church on
Third street with magnificent and
costly pile like that dedicated last
Sunday, we cannot tell. But certain
it is that his testimony of Sunday
afternoon, that his..faithful flock had
supported him at every point of the
progress of the planning and the
building, speaks large things of his
congregation. The official board of
the church consists of Messrs. J. M.

bility of dispensing with the services
of high salaried professional con-
tractor. But from the first it was
observed that our parson was not an
easy taskmaster. Everybody had to
work and no one worked harder
than the boss.
After pile of the blocks-which
were of the twin type, Joined with
small steel rods to admit of the
proper air space-were corded UP
alongside of the church site, in ear
ly summer or late spring bee of
the farmer congregation was held
and the necessary excavating and
trenching done for the foundations.
These like the superstructure were
almost wholly concrete. The build
ing necessarily proceeded slowly.
owing to the continual interference
OF rains, the season being the worst
lof illdily years IN this respect. But
as possible compensation the con-
crete seasoned slowly and under
favorable conditions. The final
stages of construction were pushed
to the limit to get the church en-
closed so that interior work could be
prosecuted regardless of the ele-
ments. If the eight-hour law had
been observed by all workmen for
the last hundred days, there would
be a cherries pile standing TODAY
where a comfortable church has
been dedicated. But the people had
a mind to work, as in Nehemiah's
time, and day and night the indefa-
tigable pastor in overalls saw that
they worked to definite plan and
end.
The dedication service, like the
building, was very much as planned
There was some disappointment

been paid for, and paid to home
workmen, with the exception of
about $500 for special skilled work
men. $4,000 of this amount, in round
numbers, had been raised by the
the congregation previous to that
subscribed last Sunday, making in
all Sl2,500 practically secured for
the building fund. 1t will require
in the neighborhood Of $4,000 to final
ly free the church from financial
debt, when completed. The build
ing committee are not worrying over
this problem, but are-going forward
with the work of finishing up the
basement and putting the finishing
touches on the exterior as fast as
weather conditions will permit. In
the meantime the large auditorium
and gallery, seated for nearly 500
people and capable of holding nearly
1000 by little crowding, is not only
at the service at the church, but IS
stated by the pastor, will be at the
service of our good citizens for con-
ventions and gatherings Of char
acter suitable for presentation in
church.
The evening service comprised a
service of song followed by the COM
