new YORK WILL HAVE
A FIFTY-ACRE BUILDING
To Supplant Historic Madison
Square Garden

New York, June 23.-The only con-
ISOLATION that New Workers can draw
from the approaching demolition of
Madison Square Garden-Which at
last is to be torn down after rumors
of its sale have been current for years
is the fact that in return they are
to become the possessors of the great
est commercial building in the world
with more than fifty acres of floor
space. The building is to be as re-
markable in is way as the structure
which it succeeds. Each of its twenty.
five floors will have an area of two
acres, thus making it the largest build
ing in the world devoted to business
purposes. The center of the block will
be occupied by a large court proyid-
ing light and air for all of tn eotfices
in the surrounding structure. Pri-
vate roadways will lead into the court
so that all goods entering or leaving
the building can be unloaded inside
doing away with distractions on the
sidewalks Elevators large enough "a
carry a four-horse team and loaded
truck will raise and lower the heav
lest loads to and from the basement
level and the building will be equipp-
ed with many other features that
would be impossible for a smaller
structure. While the floor area of the
new building will be sufficient for a
good sized farm, it would be rather
expensive for farming purposes, as the
final cost is estimated now at $12,000,-
600, or $240,0 an acre. The disap-
pearance of the historic Garden with
the golden figure of Diana surmount-
ing its tower marks the final transition
of the Madison Square section as &
hotel, club and amusement center to a
commercial district CoinCident with
it's sale it was announced that its
near neighbor, the Manhattan club
would seek new quarters further up
town. AS to where the successor q
the Garden itself is to be located, Of
whether it is to have a successor, is
still undecided.

THE HELMET HAT is
HOLDING ITS own
Some Trimmings For These
Smart Affairs

New York, June pa much favor
ed little hat for going about generally
is a close helmet which is pulled right
down over one eye and has generally
an upward kink at the back, The
newest examples of these are designed
in white straw with black velvet lin
ing, and are trimmed sometimes with
a cluster of velvet lines, carried out
with the most relastic effect in the
acid-looking, greenish yellow of the
fruit.
Or a mass of pure white giant lilies
of-the valley or delicate silk harebelles
are set straight up in the front of the
hat as though a bunch of the blossoms
had been just released from the strand
of grass which had confined them.
A few velvet peoples or cornfiowers,
with big sheaf of grasses, is another
scheme which is rapidly coming into
favor, and these are used in many in
stances to decorate the lingerie hats
or the simple Leghorns.
Pretty PicOt Ribbon.
The old-fashioned picot ribbon rep
.resents a revival in the realm of sim
pie headgear which is more than well
come White glace ribbon with the
little edge in question, and worn on a
hat of pervenche blue, provides a
charming alliance, the great many
looped bow being perched almost on
the top of the crown, and spreading
out in all directions
Tall wired stalks" covered with a
mass of ribbon leaves represent an
other scheme, the crown of the hat be-
ing ruched round with the same
leaves; while yet another curious
fancy revival, which is, however, very
effective in a number of instances, is
the vogue for stalks of Indian corn,
the closely-packed grain being simu-
lated by the beads of padded silk IN
the yellow tone of the ripe corn, and
worn on the hat after the manner Of
the feather quill

THE DAILY CHIT-CHAT

to hear any more of the young mans
tale of woe.
But with me, along with the bulle-
tins, took a new born idea-the in
production bureau.
There must be other young men n
the big cities all over the country sit
uated as this one was.
There undoubtedly are myriads Of
young girls in the same position.
Now, why can't each city have an
introduction bureau, whose purpose
should be to bring these young people
together and introduce them in per-
fectly respectable way?
The bureau could be made up OF
representative from all the churches
all the young peoples societies, and
all the social settlements and similar
institutions in the city
A young person desiring its services
would be supposed to bring references
from some responsible person in the
home town.
These would be presented to the
secretary of the introduction bureau.
The bureau would then see that the
young man or woman was introduced
to other young men and women. Fur
thermore, through the societies repre-
sented in it and through parties and
entertainments which it could give
itself, the bureau owuld do all posi-
bic to see that the strangers had
plenty of healthy social life.
This is merely a suggestive outline
of the introduction bureaus makeup
duties and scope If such bureau
were ever really established it would
undoubtedly work itself out in its own
way.
Now is it really such an absurd and
impossible scheme?
Truly, | can't see it so.

Remedy Made from Garden

Color to Gray Hair,

4 feeling of sadness accompanies the
discovery of the first gray hairs, which.
unfortunately, are looked upon as heralds
of advancing age. Gray hairs, however.
are not always an indication of advanc-
ing age, for many peo9la have gray hairs
quite early in life OF course, it is I'M
natural and indicates that there is some
thing wrong with the individual. and that
Nature needs assistance in correcting the
trouble. The same is true of hair that

thinner every day. If everything is right
with Nature, the hair, even in compara-
slEeiy elderly people, should be long,
'i.lck and glossy, without even a streak
Of gray.
The ideal assistant to Nature in re-
storing and preserving the hair is Wy
eths Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy. a
clean and wholesome dressing for daily
use 1t not only removes dandruff, but
strengthens weak, thin and falling hair
ana promotes its growth. A few appli-
cations will restore faded or gray hair
to its natural color.
This preparation is offered to the
public at fifty cents bottle. and is
recommended and sold by all druggists.

1t is altogether proper and fltirr

made the old lion Of slavery that is

Hrsi to feel that the real Garrison,
EPhillips, Lincolr, Douglass, John
Brown, Lov'joy. Harriet Be. cher
Stowe, Julia Ward Howe, and thous
ands of others are here tonight, aid
'lng and abctliug US in our work for
'manhood rights. | go further and
say, that those who lived and died
~-fsf our freedom, are doing our cause
more good at the eternal bar Of inp-
tice than they could were they here,
hence how vastly important it is,
that we fit ourselves to receive our
.just and equal rights.
Within this God blessed and hal
lowed place, December 1885, John
Boyle o Reilly in that memorable
address OF his, before his colored
fellow citizens, said: "lf | were q

"manhood.' How true! and to help
make it better, is our m;ssicn here
