Room lb?? for Y. M. a 1
An excellent suggestion, and one
which he ssje kM bean discussed
b r several ass*' of the city, vu
made this morulas regarding a lo
cal T. 0*. C. A. %>y Her. R. L. Qey,
pastor of ti? Flm Baptist Church
of Lhlfl <ttj.
f "Naturally. being a preacher. I
cannot help bnt be interested in the
T M. C. A. morameat/' said Mr.
G*7, aad I sincerely hope that the
project to esrried oat successfully in
the near future. There is no ques
tion bnt that *? need It.
"A number of gentlemen irere
recently discussing this question and
to Iced some exoellent suggestion?
regarding the best method of pro
cedure. Within the next year or two
the local school will be found too
?mall to accommodate all of the
students, and It will be necessary to
make other arrangements to teke
care of them. It is probable that
the present building will be used by
the grade? and that a new structure
will be erected for the high school.
"Now it has been suggested that
the city purchase the lot owned by
the Masons, and that a new building
ht erected there for school purposes.
Then, if 'the Mssons, Odd Fellows,
Pythlans and other secret lodges of
ahg ^plty would combine and erect
on# building or temple to be
ased jointly by them, they couM
probably be induced to jrlre orer I
two or three rooms for the use of
the general public sa a gymnasium,
reading room and for other means
of dtr?pton and entertainment.
^"iCTlot# west of the postofflce
would make an Ideal location for
t%fct Vf11*1"#! Ig rt*F eould be se
cured. I bellere they belong to Mr..
Havens.
?It appears to me that thi? scheme
would afford the best means for de
ciding the proposition all the way
around. It would afford s good Hit?
for the school house. It would give
the rarlous lodges bstter quarters
and It would give the young men
who do not belong to any order s
chance to secure entertainment and
amusement in clean moral sur
roundings."

JNew York. June 6.?A Washing
ton dispatch to the Tribune says:
Contrary to the policy which has
moved many army officers for the
last two years?that the United
States should step in and restore
peace and order In Mexico, if nec
(wary by an armed Invasion?the
best ogrinion among the officers now
seems to be that this is no time for
sending troops 4nto that country.
The offlcern make the point that
the standing army wonM be needeJ
as a nncleus for the real army
w hich would hare to be raised In the j
event . Of trouble with Germany It
would aot^e a good thing, they say,
for the government to hare to raise
an army in preparation for a war
with Germany while the regular
forces were busy In Mexico, and un
able to render any assistance in the
getting together of tha million or
more Aen to be radsed if the United

New German Note FloWxyl. *'
Washington. June 5.?President
Wllnun finished the new note to Ger
many yesterday afternoon and laid
It before the Cabinet.
After the cabinet meeting the
member? w??re unusually reticent
but there were ?orne Indications that
the note had not been finally dla
yosed of.
"We reach?*! no final conclusion
abmr. anything." said one.
In answer to questions Secretary
I Bryan replied
"I cannot divulge anything that
happen* In cabinet, meeting."
The meeting larted two hour?.
It Is stated. however. that the
' cabinet approved the note as a whole
Minor change* In phraseology may
me made to make it conform with
previous erprwodons In diplomatic
correspondence of the United State?.
The principle Ir fhred and unalter
able?that the United State? must
know definitely and promptly,
whether Germany Intends to Ignore
vfrtt and Hearah rights and continue
torpedoing vessels without warning,
or whether rules of maritime war
fare which have governed for cen
lurlea will be followed.
In German quarters here, dt Is ex
pected that the German reply will be
*?theld until Gerard has arrived and
explained 1he situation. Ms, It la
estimated, will take at least a fort
n'ght aa the boat on which the en
voy sailed wonld not bring him to
Denmark much sooner.
