trlta of the Indian, typified by hia
welcome, with hands : outstretched,' to
the rirat white men to reach these
It la likely that If the memorial la

forts near tha mouth .of tie harbor of
jew ror. it wui be wen down the
.' Narrows, farther out tban tha great
atatua of Liberty. It will ba mag
iiificent In alsa but. aa la appropriate,
eoniething leaa In proportion than tha
Liberty atatua. .
i no natter is already berora con
gress In tha ahapa of bill permitting
tha erection of tha atatua without coat
to tha federal government.
Mr. Wanamaker bUnaelf la prepared
to give liberally, but It la deemed de
ferable to have contributions to tha
fund com from various aourcea. The
Order of Red Men all over the country
are enthusiastic In tha movement and
are rriy t contribute It la proposed
to oniain penny ' contributions from
aonooi children and otherwise add to
tha fund from many banda, Bo that
there will ba tha wider and deeper In

It waa last May that tha movement
for this great bronae statue to the In

Idea which Mr. Wanamaker had long
entertained, that of erecting; a herolo
statu to the Indian In New York har
bor. Every speaker strongly approved
it. the presa took It up, and now there la
ecarcely a state In tha Union from
which favorable sentiment has not been
evoked.''' : -!' r. .......'

Oood Work Ooas On.
The announcement that Mrs. K. It
Harrlman has taken up with enthusl-
fwm the work of her late husband In
connection with the East Side Boys' club,
which was one of the late railroad king's
pft hobbies, has developed the fact-that
Jlrs. Harrlman herself was .really the
inspiration of this work.
A good many years ago Mrs. JTarrt
man, then Miss 'Mary Averell, waa an
enthusiastic settlement worker. It was.
in fact, while engaged In this work, she
met young Harrlman and waa assiduous
ly and successfully courted by him. She
started perhaps the first social club for
working girls established In New York,
and was Its guiding genius. f
Mr. -Harrlman was much Impressed
with the good accomplished by this club,
and at Mls AvereH'a suggestion he
started a similar club for boys, which
Is still In existence. The good It has
done for those young fellows on the
East Side Is hard to estimate..
The Boys' club, at Avenue A and
Tenth street, has grown from the few
rooms, in which Mr. Harrlman estab
lished It, to a building of five atorles,
equipped with gymnasium, all aorta of
recreation rooms and serving 15,000
boya and young men. . i) i ' '. ,

The aplrtt of the Rocklea la about to
make Itself manifest In the great me
tropolis by a noteworthy addition to the
number of palatial iclubhouses In the
big city. - It will be the home of the
Rocky Mountain club of New York, and
It la expected that the early spring will
witness the breaking of ground for Ita
erection. One million dollars will be
the probable cost.
While the club is not yet in actual
possession of the site, the land has been
bought for a sum said to be 1200,000 by
two members of tha club, who hold It
for the action of the organisation, to
which they stand ready to deed it with
out any advance on the price at which
they ecured it. The aame man stand
ready to finance the building of the edi

action for carrying out the project. The
land comprises three lots, with a .front
age of 86 feet on Forty-fourth afreet,

The Rocky Mountain club has just
completed the, third year of ita exlat
ence. Its purposes are similar to those
of the Ohio society and others designed
to bring into touch with each other

"Knguan women nave been famous al
