Home in Washington for
Homeless Men.

As soon as the authorities OF the SAL

they say is needed, work will be start
ed upon a 100000 Citadel which, in
many ways will rival the Mills Hotels
OF New York and WILL the army au-
thorities hope. become the living-place
and club Of many OF the homeless
young men Of the Capital
According TO Col r. +. Holz. pro-
vincial officer in charge of the At
lantic Coast province OF the Salvation
Army. whose headquarters are in Phil
adelphis, there will be no difficulty in
raising the necessary money and he be
lieves that within a short time WASH
ington's Salvationists will have a nome
worthy OF the cause.
The citadel. as such Salvation Army
establishments are called. will boast
in addition to the usual bedrooms. etc,
a large assembly room where services
OF the local branch OF the Army may be
held. Provision will be made also for
rooms where simple games may be
played by the citadel's guests.
The national officers OF the army dis
cussed afNo at meeting yesterday the
coming tour of General Booth who will
visit Washington soon. A suitable hall
viii he hired for the occasion, and the
old but yirile leader will make an ad
dress 20 thousands as he did year
ago.
According TO the officers. Washing
ton shows more improvement from
Salvation Army standpoint than does
any other large city in the southeastern
division. II is probable that when the
citadel Is erected the headquarters of
the southeastern division will be To-
Gated here.
