OCEAN GROVE, N. j., September IA, 1907.
AS result of investigations into the
matter by the townspeople it has been
found that number of changes have been
made In the original bylaws Of the Ocean
Grove Camp Meeting Association. These
appear in the eighth and tenth annual re-
ports, the only ones which were found to
contain bylaws. The discovery did not
come as surprise to the majority Of the
investigators. 1t is part of a subject upon
which Ocean Growers have been much
wrought up of late, and several meetings of
investigation into the doings of the assoc
citation have been called within the last
few weeks. The residents of the resort are
SO heartily tired of having no voice in the
running of their town affairs that radi-
cal change in the management Is likely to
be result OF the uprising.

RESIDENCE MODELLED AFTER
GRAND TRIANON

One of the finest works of archi-
lecture in the west will be the resi-
dence which c. A. Baldwin, the mii-
lionaire, son of Commodore Baldwin,
is building at Colorado Springs Its
exterior is modelled after that of the
grand Trianon palace at Versailles,
and the design is about the most am
bilious ever attempted by an archi-
teet here.
1t was reported at first that the
plans had been made by Stanford
White, but this was an error. The ar
chitects are Maclearen and Thomas
of Colorado Springs. Mr. Maelau-
rem was in Denver on Saturday on
business connected with this build
ing. He visited Versailles last year
in order to make sketches of the pal
ace. The result will be that Mr.. Bald
wins house will be an artistic and
faithful copy of the creation of Man

This will apply to the interior for
when it comes to comfortable living
the twentieth century can do much
better than copy from the seventeen
tn. Accordingly. the living rooms
will be modern in every detail. But
the decorations of the interior will
be carried out in the style of Louis
XIV.
The house will be the most elabor-
ate ana costly in Colorado, in this
part of the west. in fact, with the ex-
ception of General Palmer's residence
at Glen Eyrie. 1t Will cost 100000

tract and Doyle and Schwartz the

SENATOR rErruR LIBRARY

The late Senator Pettus of Ala

land to California in the early days
and engaging in placer mining, He
took with him on that long and ted
lous journey three books, the Bible
Shakespeare and Burns poems.
He said of them at one time not
long since; II read the Bible from
cover to cover; l read the side notes,
read the captions of the chapters;

and havn't forgotten them yet.
learned many of Burns poems by
heart and much of Shakespeare in
the same way too" Such reading
of these three books was an educa-
tion in itself. It is not likely that
many miners engaged in that search
for wealth spent their leisure in as
profitable a way-Indianapolis Star.

3 900 small jaws or hands. arranged in

planned 70 limit the membership to
about 300 or 1000 persons, who will be
assessed so much a year to pay for initi-
