PRINCE'S "PLAN.
ICepllos to a CrltlcUm on Ills Idea for n
Working (5 Iris Homo.
The subject of establishing n homo for
working girls has created considerable in
terest and discussion.
Speaking of the matter yesterday to a BEB
reporter Sol Prince said :
"My conversation with a representative of
TUB BEE has Docn the cause of some com
ment , and the World-Herald in nn editorial ,
calls my attention to the fact that such a
homo is already established by the Women's
Christian association and urges that there
should bo no rivalry but a unity of interest.
In answer to this I dcslro to dclino my plan
and position exactly.
"I do not decry or underrate the ef
forts of our noble women who are engaged
in the good work of ameliorating human suf
fering , bo they members of the Women's
Christian association , the Creche , the
Open JOoor , the hospitals or the Hebrew La-
dies"Aid society. God bless them all. They
nro all doing a blessed work. They are all
exemplifying the teaching , 'The greatest of
these is charity. ' Their existence is neces
sary , but not for the women to whom 1 refer
In my plan for a working woman's homo.
This homo should bo so conducted as to remove -
move all idea of charity , of religion or of
any dependence whatever in connection
therewith. Now , lot us look Into the matter ,
first as nn investment , and second as to
practicability. I propose that a lot should bo
purchased , not too far Jrom the business
renter , on which should bo erected a build-
ingcontaining200 sleeping rooms , parlor , bath
rooms , spacious dining room , kitchen , etc. "
' This building would cost Jto build , with
ground , approximately § .V,000. , Of the 200
rooms 100 should bo double , to accommodate
two pcoplo each , and 100 single. Thus , wo
have a homo capable of caring for 800
boarders. Now , a to the expense of running
sucli nn institution and providing good
meals , clean beds and bright , cheerful , sur
roundings. As nn old hotel man. I claim
that this can all bo done at a cost of $1.500
per month , including all expenses. "Now , lot
us add to this a fair interest on the
money invested say 0 per cent on
$50,000 , or $250 per month , which , added to
$1,500 , will make ? 1,750 per month. To provide -
vide for all contingencies lot us call it $2,000
per month. This would require a charge of
n little less than 17 per month for cich ten
ant. The parlor should bo nicely furnished
and provided with a good piano , and during
the winter months , at least once a week ,
pleasant entertainment could bo readily
afforded the guests by local talent , who
would , I am sure , volunteer their services.
No objection should bo made to any lady re
ceiving gentlemen callers in the parlor , nnd
I opine , that this alone would have a saluta
tory effect on the morals of some men who
would loam the lesson that a girl who works
for her living , however humble that work
may bo , is none the less n lady for that.
"To conclude , my Idea would bo to make
this , not a charity institution , but rather a
working women's co-operative association ,
whcro mutual assistance could bo rendered.
All the comforts of.homo could bo enjoyed ,
and incalculable benefits could bo mutually
secured to the poor working women of this
city.
I < ecturo on the Art i\lilblt.
Mr. 4V. 13. Curtis , formerly of Chicago , but
now a resident of this city , delivered a very
interesting lecture on the ' 'Art Exhibit at
the Fair , " to a small but appreciative audience
dionco at Young Mcns1 Christian
Association hall last evening , Tlio
siwakor dealt moro especially with the dis
play of liberal arts. His description of the
exhibits of the various nations was the
next thing to a personal view of the gal-
Tlio artistic arrangement of the buildings
and landscapes of the AMilto City received
some attention in the opening sentences of
the address. Mr. Curtis stated that the
art exhibit at the World's fair was fully 50
tier cent larger than that nt the Centennial ,
but ho was disposed to crjticho the arrange
ment. The pictures woroscattored all over the
galleries. These representing the United
States vvcro displayed In eleven different
rooms and tbo French exhibit was scattered
through nearly twenty apartments , The
catalogues were BO arranged that It was Im
possible to toll In which room various paint
ings were located nnd the visitor who wanted
to find a certain picture had no recourse ex
cept to search all through the exhibit.
Ono of the striking features of the nx-
hlblt WAS the absence of many of the works
of the old masters. The exhibition was de
signed to represent the work of the nine
teenth century and but few of the paintings
were of nn earlier date. According to the
judgment of the speaker. Germany , the
United 'States , Great Britain and Franco
ranked In the order immod in the compara
tive excellence of their exhibits ,
' Inillllrrrnt to DniiRar.
Complaint was mudo to the police last
night that the one-story frame dwelling at
1515 Harnoy utroot was unsafe on account it
the undermining of the foundation In ex
cavating for the now hotel at Fifteenth IXid
Harnoy streets. Tbo excavation reaches ido
the alilo of the house and the bank Is out
straight down for nearly thirty foot below
the stills of the buildlug. The bank is now
caving away , leaving the east side of bo
house without propo- support , and it Is
feared that ono of these Juno days it will
coma tumbling down Into the excavation ,
The bouso is occupied by n colored family
named Fields , who refused to move on
their dangarous situation was explained to
them , The building inspector was ad
of the clrcuuibtauces aud will investigate the
matter today.
AMBITION OF YOUNG HEARTS
Qlftddcnod by Promotion from the Eighth
Grade to the High School.
FAREWELL TO FIELDS OF FORMER STUDY
Progrnm of Kxerctiei nt Kollom School
Largo Clans nnd KvlUonco of 1'ro-

1'niilU Some Candid Atlvloe.
The eighth grade class at the Kellom
school gave a very pleasing and crodlUblo
Brogram yesterday afternoon , Itvas a
farewell to the teachers and pupils of the
school prior to tholr taking a stop higher
into the High school at the opening ot the
fall : term ,
fLt The principal of the school and Miss
Lucas , teacher of the eighth grade , had
both taken special pains to have the prepara
tions complete , and the event was very
much enjoyed by the visitors. After the
. . .
exorcises by the class , Dr. Duryoa was in
troduced and delivered an admirable talk.
Ho said , among other things , that ho hoped
the members of the class would go to the
High school next year , rather than bo sont.
Young people who were sent to school
rarely did as well as these who went. Ho
then touched upon the central thought in
work and recreation , saying ho had known
people who really enjoyed wont , although as
a rule : , it was natural to shrink from that
which : required the exercise of the will and
a good deal of energy to accomplish. Ho
hoped the young people before him would
learn to love mental work. When that had
once : become the habit of life , then the pos
sibilities for improvement were simply
limitless. The doctor struck sonic of the
folblos of fashionable society a fo\v vigorous
blows , nnd advised the girls of the class to
nut in but very little time before the look
ing glass or In the hands of the fashion
makers.
IMucatlon Uefore Crimps.
"Wo used to hear a good deal about this
alleged ovoreducation , " said the enthusias
tic ilivlno. "When I look nt fashionable so
ciety and consider how Unlit and trifling It Is
I am persuaded that It wilt bo a very long
time before wo.noed to fear anything like
over-education. No man can bo too well ed
ucated to bo an honest man and a good
father. No woman can bo too highly edu
cated to bo a true and useful woman and a
good mother. "
Ho cautioned the boys that they should
not sot their mark too high. Their chances
of being president of thoUnited States were ,
to say the least , rather slim. Neither was
it by any moans certain that the young men
before him would over become rich. If they
did they would probably have to go through
the same experience with nearly every ether
man in the country who had grown rich ,
"thoy would have to fall once or twice. "
But there is ono thing that they could bo.
They could bo honest aud useful men. This ,
ho held , should bo their aim. Ho wanted to
see each of the young people before him
resolve to make his or her mind a kingdom
in which they would have enjoyment of that
substantial and enduring kind that no dis
aster or failure in life could deprive thorn of.
In closing ho expressed a hope that every
member of the class would como to the High
' school next fall filled with a dcslro to make
the most , of all the opportunities there pre
sented for developing tholr minds and en
larging their fields of usefulness.

Notorious Bell Brandon , whoso euphonious
title has appeared on the police- record at
regular intervals for many years , Is again in

with intent to kill. The crime was com
mitted in ono of the cells of the city jail ,
whcro tlio pugnacious Boll was confined for

"Dude" Gibson , one of the minutes of the

afternoon for disturbing the peace. About 7
o'clock last evening the Brandon woman ap
peared at police headquarters for the pur
pose of liberating her friend. She was ac

nnd had no sooner explained the object of
her visit than she began to make things ex
ceedingly lively around the Jail. Jailer
Havoy finally put her out and she continued
her performance on tlio sidewalk outside.
After the matinco had continued a few
minutes Sergeant Whalen went out n'id ar
rested the exhilarated femalu. who greeted
him with n volley of profanity that
was audible n couple of blocks away.
She was locked In a cell with
the Gibson woman nnd loudly called
to Whalen to come down st.iirs as she wanted
to kill him. Nothing was thought of it at
the time , but it afterward transpired that
the woman meant business , as EMU ) 1114U tt

Uolnff disappointed In the appearance of
