The Young Men's Christian Association has begun" a"5hovement to raise $45,000 by subscription to pay off the association's indebtedness and to provide for enlarg ing the present quarters. The work of the association has grown rapidly within the last year. Its membership Increased .to 105S, and the attendance of the night classes became so great that the building occupied at present has been found insuf ficient for the association's needs, being large enough to accommodate only GOO or 600 members. To meet this need of the association, President W. 2L Ladd appointed the fol lowing building committee to mature plans as to the amount of money needed and the nature of the improvements to be made: A. M. Smith, chairman; Robert Livingstone, Dr. S. A. Brown, Frank Day ton and A. L. "Veazle. This committee was In session yesterday afternoon discussing plans for making the needed improvements in the Y. M. Ci A. building at Fourth and Yamhill streets. It was decided to replace the frame wall of the two-story building at the corner with one of pressed brick, and to add one story to its height, thus placing at the disposal of the association a three-story building 100x100 feet square. The rooms of the additional third story will be used for the classes of the night college, whose quarters are now so cramped that one class has been meeting four times a week in a room in the basement, cold and poor ly ventilated. Room will also be added by the prospective changes for a new swimming tank, which has been greatly desired in connection with the gymnasium classes and athletics of the association. This will be placed on the ground floor, and the bowling alleys dropped to new rooms to be comfortably fitted up In the basement The gymnasium will be used as at present for an assembly hall and au ditorium in addition to Its regular uses, while the remaining space on the second floor will be adapted to the reading and social rooms. Secretary Stone said yesterday that a prospectus of the improvements and the association's plans for raising funds will be issued next week. The money will all be raised by subscription.

Lightship 50 has been raised 18 inches above where she lay on the beach, near "Mackenzie Head. The contractors have 35 men and over 103 jackscrews employed on the work, and think the most difficult part of the job has been accomplished. The vessel is now supported by three chains, which pass under her hull and are made fast to heavy timbers. As these timbers are being jacked up, other timbers are used to keep the hull in position, and thus a cradle is being formed. The work was begun February 20, and the time will be up April 3. After that date a penalty of ?100 will be exacted by the Government unless an extension of time is granted. The vessel will have to be raised sup- 15th Shipload 2000 yards of Bargains , latest style VEILINGS, Tuxedo, Brussels Net, Sewing Silt, Chiffon, Plain Veiling, Dotted. Veiling.

When this is done she will be hauled ashore by horse-power capstans, assisted by the donkey engine on board. She will thus help to pull her self along the plank roadway three-quarters of a mile to Baker Bay, where ways will be built for'her launching. The contractors report unforeseen diffi culties In their task so far, as the weath er has been stormy and the tides unusu ally high. The men have been working day and night, between tides, and the sand has given way under their feet as they placed the timbers down to operate on. They now have a plank floor as a base of operations, and as this bears down to the bottom, the sand oozes out, washing In again on top, with every incoming tide. The difficulty of obtaining a solid basis upon which to support the COO tons weight of the ship Is, therefore, evident. Allen & Roberts are the third firm to un dertake getting the vessel out of her pre carious position. Each of the other firms, It is said, lost about $12,500 in the attempt, so the snug sum of $25,000 has been sunk thus far. The present contract calls for $17,500, and a large proportion of this sum has been expended In raising her less than two feet, perpendicularly. The former contractors endeavored to pull her off the bar, with the aid of tugs, but the power used was not strong enough. "Want Car Service. The residents of Mount Scott have felt the Joss of the car service since the sus pension of trips by the old East Side Railway Company, and It Is reported they will petition the City & Suburban Rail way Company to extend the Woodstock branch on to Lent's Postoffice. There Is a good grade and a straight course through. If the company should conclude to extend the line. Such line would ac commodate Tremont, Tremont Place, Chi cago addition and Mount Scott. READING MATTER WANTED Boole and Magazine for the Boys In the Philippines. There should be generous and immediate response to the request of the Daughters of the Revolution for reading matter for our boys in the Philippines. A transport is expected to leave Portland within 10 days. Meantime gifts in the way of lit erature will be taken care of by Olds, Wortman & King, Fifth and Washington streets. Probably In more than half the homes if Portland there are books, magazines Ind illustrated papers too good to throw away, and still hardly worth keeping per manently. These are just what men in iamp most desire in the way of reading matter. Every one Is willing to con- tribute, but every one hasn't the facili ties for getting the gifts to the depot at Olds, Wortman & King's. It Is suggested that donors make use of any delivery wag ons which come to their dwellings.
