issued. Armed with the warrant Con

brought here for trial at the present

"The Central Labor Union, as reprS-
sentative Of the organized workers Of
this city, oppose such a cooperative
association because Of the fact that IL
denies the right OF collective fargain-

for years, and leaves the worker at the
mercw OF those employers who see fll

ligeg, who also did the panels az the
spring line and the octagonal panels
near the base.
But what VIII undeniably attract at
tention now, and much more attention
later from both visitors and residents In
the future, are four cartouches over the
doors In the corners of the ball room
These were done by Raymond NJ. Hood.
OF New York, who IS the architect Of
the new public rooms and ball room
suite OF the hotel in addition, and exc
cuted by NJ. r. Gulstl, the architecture
al modeller.
These cartouches constitute what the
English style a ripping study" for
they depict lovemaking; not the love-
making OF Humankind, but that OF the
birds, the fishes and the stars. Mr.. Hood
clearly Is possessed OF a penetrative
sense OF humor as well as Of the ar
tistlc. for n his anal cartouche he de-
plots two ealamanders embracing, while
the Man IN the Moon, serving as a back
ground. IS laughing IN fervid glee.
But these are not all the decorations
OF this delightful grand salon. The dec
Oratlye motives Of the elaborate ceiling,
with It's grea. pendant rOsettes, from
which hang p0nderOus carved wood
lighting fixtures, are the COlumbines,
the pierrots and the baubles of the
gay and luxurious period OF Natteau
and Fragonard.
While the detail OF the ball room Is
mostly OF the Louis XIV period. the in
spiratlon for It's effect was rather the

cuted by Mr. Gulstl, who modelled all
OF the decorative plaster. wood, stone
carving and ornamental work in the
public rooms. The work was done
from drawings by Mr.. Hood, but has
been executed with a great deal Of
originality.

done under the supervision Of Ernest

with low-toned tapestry and leather
coverings. In the ball roOme suite the
furnishings go TO the Louis NlNlh

Question naturally arises: TO whom
is Wilmington Indebted for this artis-
try? In answer 10 may be said The pro-
iect was in charge OF +. W. Russum,

The drive for new members for the
Harrisburg Chamber of Commerce
will end at noon tomorrow. but

before that time. All the eanvassers
were busy to-day concentrating their

who thus far have held back from

The members of the committee eX-
pect to boost the total of new men,
bers considerably before they meet
in the Harrisburg Club at noon to-
morrow to report the results of the
campaign. Several canvassers who
happened to meet this morning while
calling on their prospects, in eX-
changing notes on the results of their
canvass thus far. expressed them
selves greatly pleased with the re-
suits of the drive.
Some of the workers have been of
fered rather tlimsy pretexts by ELI
gible prospects who failed to respond
to their solicitations by joining the
chamber. Some of the prospects
appear to be holding back until 9TH
er men in their line of business set
an example by joining. "Others in
my line are not members, why should
l be-" said one man this morning.
Because other men shirk taxes
wouldn't excuse your doing it," re-
piled F j. Consylman, a member of
the committee, because other men
mistreat their families, would be no
standard for you. The man who
hides behind another mans failure TO
do his duty is hard up for an ex-
cuse. You should be an example to
your trade, not one of its prob
lems."
