TEARS ARE SHED IN
 I'M. C.A. BUILDING
L. J. Overlook and Others Join in Shower of Grief
 Yesterday


 There is no crepe on the door of the |. M. C. A., but several dishpans oi tears were shed at the association building yesterday. To an outsider, tho Glooms were in complete possession of the building. 1t was simply heart rending. Hundreds Of people visited the association lobby and reading room ev- cry day and all of these mingled their tears with those of the association 0r licials.
 L. J. Overlook strode into the lobby and passed the time O day with the secretary, but he had gone no further with the conversation before he was seen to blink his eyes and draw his kerchief from his pocket and wipe the falling tears away. But the tears came and he turned away. Other prominent citizens called during the day and what they saw, heard or sensed through other senses, called forth their tears to mingle with those of Mir. OY- erlock.
 Over in the corner of the lobby stranger peeped from the covers of his magazine and wondered IL IS like ly that be thought that some promi-
  association, had passed away, for each caller, when he had spoken a few words with the secretary, mopped away the falling tears and left the building. To the visitor it appeared an unconditional surrender to Captain Gloom.
 General Secretary Davis and his as sistant. R. B. Krebs, sat at .heir desks and allowed the tears to drop on large size ink blotters.
 No, Stranger in the corner reading magazine, no one is dead. It was mere ly cleaning day at the Y MIG. 4. build ing and all of the rooms were being fumigated with formaldehyde. The as- sOciation received it's new formalde hyde generator yesterday and the stuff that it generated was the cause of tears. and the joKe of it was that the mourners were like Tennyson: Tears. idle tears: I know not what they mean" Each man of them departed blaming old age for weak eyes.

John L. Cuneen of Chicago who has

He took up in opening the PROPOSE

which he said: rs there such a thing
as model saloon? Years ago, near
where | live in Chicago. there was a
man who took compassion upon the
poor working men that he saw going
into the saloons, leaving their money
and going home drunk to their families.
He said that he would start n model
saloon, so that the poor working men
could get their drink and go home So
Der to their families. He had property
and money to spare and he started his

was going to elevate the whole saloon
business of the United States, but three
months later there was an item in the
papers telling how the sheriff had
taken possession of the model saloon
the model saloon keeper having become
bankrupt. 1t is q peculiar characteris-
