ceiving very much encouragement and
donations have begun to come in. By
the time that the building is ready to
be begun, much of the money needed
will have been subscribed and the In
stitute placed upon a good financial
basis.
Up to this date the persona in
charge are able to give to the public
the names of the following generous
donors: Archbishop Christie, $500;
Rev. Hlllebrand, $300; Frank Busch,
$200; Rev. A. Lainck of Sublimity,
$100; and many others for the first
year $25 and who also have promised
a similar amount during the next four

These donations are Indeed very en

to the memory of the old pioneer that
had so much to do with tho founding
of our city.
Report of other donations will bo

committee expects to have operations

The "McLoughlin Institute of Learn
ing" will be mostly of stone with a
basement of concrete. The general
appearance of the building gives a
beautiful square effect and gives one
the impression of the Portland Li

contain five recitation rooms, a rec
reation room for the boys and girls
during the rainy days of the winter
and a hail for the different school
meetings, socials and entertainments.
