PLANS OF CLUB IN DOUGLAS ARE HANDSOME
Mff Mhiff, Holden Puts Roses and Grass Into the Picture, Which Will No Doubt Be Realized Some Day.

DOUGLAS, Sept. 3.-(Special.)- Picture to yourself a house of the
 charming Swiss architecture-a cha let, if you please-low-lying with
 great solid timbers projecting, sup
 ported and adorned by columns of | rough hewn rock or cobble stones, l gathered from tine wantOn waste of l the hills, with a great spacious gal | -porch-veTanda-o whatever you choose to call it, according to the 1 particular part of the country from which you are sprung. extending | lengthwise of its frontage, painted in bright harmonious colors-all sur rounded by green lawns and reached by two trails of concrete walk from the road, the whole set of by the beautiful expanse of plains and be
 yond the low-lying but impressive
 mountains. Picture all this-or bet ter, go to the First National bank and see for yoursef-and you have a
 beautiful wash drawing done by Ar chitect Holden from the plans of
 the club house of the country club.
 There are several things in the drawing that have no place in MT. Holdens plans but no doubt in time a picture of the club house will con firm MT. HolCen's most roseate draw ings-even to the roses that grow about the club house-in the picture The artist has given the rough stone columns a setting of clematis, arbu- tus and other floral growths. They are seen entwining themselves about their big supports in an utter abandon of luxuriaRce, the while bursting into flower in a wealth of color A Ken lucky lawn of blue grass looks no DTettier than does that of the coun- try club as portrayed by Mr. Holden And the brush of the artist has made trees to grow and nearby are some great boulders which are also en- twined with a riot of vegetation.
 In front of the club house is a red automobile. Although this is suffi- cient for it's modification. its identiy is made complete by the fact that it is perfectly noiseIess machine. A number of young ladies, some of whom give un- mistakable evidence of being school teachers. are lounging about the club house. One has a golf club in her hand, another a tennis rack-all are talking. Some gentlemen are present they are listening. The party who are going in for a game on the court naturally use sentimental words in technical sense. One speaks of "thirty-love" and another of forty love" but those who do not under stand the royal game or tennis should not miSCOnstrue this purely technical talk with courtship since there is much said of "love"-and all on the court"
 Then another lady is being attended by a caddy with his bag of golf sticks He is the real thing such as you see in the funny papers, though 1t isn't as much fun for him as il is for the young gentlemen who in enjoying game-or about tO-with the young lady.
 It's all very pretty-this picture MT. Holden shows us. His brush does not touch the interior which itself is fine, as the Gobblers would say. Here is a little of what a glance at the plans shows the interior will look like.
 The main cub room will be g by 54 feet; the smoking room 13 by 19 feet; the ladies' room 12 by q feet; the locker room % by 2I feet with 200 lockers; the buffet 12 by 14 feet l The shower baths will be provided one for the ladies and two for gentle | men. The interior architecture will l be a continuance of the effect pro | duced by the exterior appearance. It | will be open timber work in the club | room with burlap wainscoting to. l height or nve Ieer. me IurnIsnfEgs I will be Of the mission style and tine i windows will be of the French type. 1 The piece de resistance of the club | room will be a great cheery open fire place. The smoking room will have | a beamed ceiling and will be done with Moorish design.
 It is expected the club house will be open for Thanksgiving dinner. |
