This gave the BALDWIN Piano great prominence at home.

Death or Mrs. James Marksbury.

Mrs. James Marksbury, aged thirtyfive years, died of pneumonia Monday at her home 208 Maple street. The funeral occurred Wednesday afternoon at 3 o'clock. Dr. Tharp conducted the services. Interment at Oak Hill. Mrs. Marksbury leaves a husband and three children.

Ira Goes North.

Sheriff Canine last Tuesday left for Michigan City in charge of Ira McConnell who will begin his sentence there at once. McConnell stated that he intended to live strictly up to the prison rules and conduct himself as a model prisoner. While at the jail he gave no trouble and made himself a favorite with the oflicers there.

Arrested For Assault.

John Cunningham was arrested last Taesday on the complaint of his wife, who charged that he had been beating her. Sbe stated that he had, wholly without cause, attacked her with a knife indicting an ugly wound in her throat. He also struck hor several times with his fist. Cunningham was arrested and spent the night in jail. Wednesday he pleaded not guilty, denying the charge in toto.

What Dewey Did.

Last Tuesday fn the circuit court Mrs. Bridgie Dewey entered suit for divorce from Howard A. Dewey. She alleges that he would not provide for her and obliged her to live with his people where she was forced to do the washing and other menial work. She alleges further that she was ordered abouiTthere by his relatives and finally told to get out and leave,_advice which she followed last .October,

for $500 alimony.

Feeling Fine.

Sheriff Canine returned Wednesday from Michigan City where he took Ira McConnelllto begin hisi term. Mr. McConnell stated on the train that he felt better both physically and -mentally than he had felt for years. In the office of the prison he came face to face with Hon. E. H. Nebeker, one of the prison board, with whom he was well acquainted. Mr. Xebeker shook hands with him and greeted him very kindly. When Mr. McConnell had been withdrawn Mr. Xebeker spoke of him in the most kindly terms to the warden and deputy warden, something calculated to do the prisoner a good turn.

Couldn't Get License.

On Wednesday a young man named LaFrance and a girl named Rogers, both from Danville, 111., appeared at the clerk's office seeking a marriage license. It so happened that the-sheriff at Danville had telephoned Clerk Kennedy a few days ago to be on the lookout for this couple and to refuse them license because of a lack of lawful age. They were informed of the situation and the bride wept copiously. The couple ran away Tuesday and were driven in a buggy to Wallace where they engaged a second buggy from the liveryman there and came on to Crawfordsville. They left the^city to try their luck elsewhere.

John Blair's Church.

A special from Paris, 111., says: "The new Presbyterian church was dedicated in this city yesterday morning, the services being attended by abcut one thousand residents of this place. The new edifice was crowded to the doors, and it was found necessary to turn a number of people away. The sermon was delivered by the Rev. J. A Rondthaler, pastor of the Fullerton avenue church, of Chicago, and form' erly of Indianapolis. The dedicatory exercises which followed were in charge of the pastor, the Rev. John Allan Blair. The structure was built at a cost of about $40,000. "The pastor, the Rev. Mr. Blair, is a native of Crawfordsville, Ind., and during his pastorate the church has been enjoying an era of growth and prosperity. He is a graduate of Wabash college."

THE CRAWFORDSVILLE WEEKLY JOURNAL.

MASONIC TEMPLE.

Something Concerning the Handsome Structure.

The Plans Worked Out By Mr. Sharpe are of Remarkable Beauty and Have At­

tracted Much Favorable Notice From Those Who Have

Seen Them.

The readers of Tim

ouknal

are

enabled in this issue to see cuts of the two street fronts of our Masonic temple soon to be erected on the beautiful lot at the northwest corner of Washington street and Wabash avenue. The matter of erecting a suitable home for the Masonic bodies in Montgomery county has long been the dream of its devoted members, and the committee having the matter in charge has been quietly but persistently working for more than

one year to place the matter on a definite basis, and by the time another year passes it is believed they will be able to occupy their new home.

Some eight or ten plans were before the committee since the matter first began to assume shape, and resulted in the selection of the plans prepared by Architect W. P. Sharpe, of this city, as announced some days ago in fHb: Journal.

It is not customary 'to print cuts of the internal arrangements of buildings from the architect's office studies as the interior is. of course, where the hard study is expended, and its publication makes it the property of other architects. The exterior is often a matter of a

motif

long in existence in

various forms, and by a good designer is readily adapted to modern conditions. The Boston public library, for example, is an adaptation of the facade of Ste. Genevieve library in Paris.

The new Masonic building is in the French renaissance style of architecture and is to be of stone and pressed

brick. The main entrance is from Washington street and this front is to be modified by extending the porch along the entire front between the angle piers, and a slight modification is to be made of the windows of this front as both the committee and architect believe that an increase of relative lighting space is desirable in this elevation to render it still more in harmony with the side elevation. There will be a clear space for light and ventilation of about three feet on the north side along the end pavillions, and four feet between the pavillions. The cornice line»is fifty feet high and the twostory part of the building is 7lxl25feet. The Wabash avenue front is to remain unchanged. There is a ladies' entrance on this front and carriages may drive up to the curb stone, under cover of the marquise supported by bronze chains.

The entire first floor is for social purposes, no business rooms of any kind being provided for, and in this respect it is unique among Masonic temples so far as the committee has information, and they have heard from nearly every state in the union. A spacious hallway extends from the Washington street entrance, 1C feet in width, which, with the Wabash avenue entrance, merges into the foyer, which in turn forms the vestibule to the grand banquet hall in the rear. It is expected that the floors of the hall, side entrance and foyer will be laid in marble mosaic.

The main entrance hall opens through doorways into spacious parlors and-club rooms both for ladies and gentlemen on each side, with toilet rooms and gentleman's smoking room attached, and just before the hall reaches the foyer it expands into a grand stair hall having a broad winding Might upon either side, leading up to a mezzanine from which balconics overlook the parlors upon each side, and from which a musician's balcony overlooks the grand banquet hall. The mezzanine will be used for serving ice cream, for small amusement parties at tables, conversation parties and the similar gatherings. The orchestra will be seated upon the mezzanine during the holding of social functions. This idea of a mezzanine and grand stairway is, Mr. Sharpe's distinctive conception and was not so far as The

ournal

is informed—shown

in any other plan, and certainly was not likely to have been without borrowing the idea, as Mr. Sharpe showed it in a sketch more than a year ago. The committee has also given valuable suggestions which the arch-

ss

I tmmm

Washington Street Front.

itect has adopted in the mezzanine in its present form. This combined feature has served to give the entire work that element of unity without which any art conception is a failure when considered as a whole.

The grand banquet hall is 34 feet by ti6 feet in the clear with a vaulted elliptic ceiling 32 feet in height: the sides are oaneied in quartered oak five feet above the tloor with a shelf as the crowning mould for brick a-brack, etc. On entering' the banquet hall from the foyer one first sees the grand mantel directly opposite, behind which is concealed the spacious kitchen and serving room.

On reconsideration the committee unanimously decided to make absolutely no changes in the first story interior plan. From the mezzanine two broad stairways will lead to the second tloor wbich contain the two large Masonic lodge rooms and all property and ante rooms. The blue lodge room is at the corner of Washington and Wabash avenue, and is 41 feet by ob feet with a

balcony at the west end. The council chamber is 24 feet by 44 feet just north of the blue lodge room. The lockers for paraphernalia are on the floor over the banquet hall which is on the second story balcony level.

The lighting will be partly from artificial gas from side brackets, and the lights will be softened by ground glass. The principal lighting, however, is from invisible electric bulbs above the cornice resting in reflecting concave surfaces. This is the general system of electric'lighting throughout the building and about 600 lights will be installed. The classic columns, pilasters, cornices and friezes with the delicate effects in color and detail will be exquisite.

The tmoking room will have a mantel and will be finished in quartered oak, the ceiling having ornamental oak beams. The heating will be by direct steam radiation. It is safe to say that no Masonic home in the states of the central west will approach it in convenience, completeness or beauty, and it is believed that the money is now in sight to insure the building substantially as designed. The architect and draftsmen are now pushing the working drawings with the utmost vigor and hope to have them ready within four weeks. Bids will then be received and the work will be started at the very earliest day possible.

General Wallace on inspecting the

plans for the Masonic temple complimented the work in the highest terms, and mentioned especially the difficulty in showing such originality in the art of architecture, it being so exacting and conservative in its principles. An architect must have great regard for precedent in his profession, much more so than even in law.

FOR TWO YEARS.

The School Board Contracts With Superintendent Mlllls to Remain Here.

Wednesday the school board held a meeting and made a contract with Prof. W. A. Millis to remain as the superintendent of the Crawfordsville schools for two years more. Prof. Millis has agreed to accept the terms offered.

The action of the board will meet with the hearty and unqualified ap proval of everyone who has paid the least attention to the schools of this city, the change for the better being remarkable in all departments within the pnst few months. Not only has

•fr

Prof. Millis brought the schools to a high standard of excellence within a short time, but he has inaugurated a few practical changes which have resuited in a material saving without the least sacrifice.

A Tribute.

"She is dead'' were the sad words whispered gone to the home she with Christian fortitude sought to enter though loth to leave behind the dear children and loving husband, brothers and sisters and to-day we pay the last tribute of respect to her memory. Mrs. Susan Mark-bury. She was born in Bedford February, 1800, soon after came to Crawfordsville with mother, father, three sisters and one brother, Mrs. John Snyder, Mrs Mary Kaper, Mrs. Charles Galey, and Harry McKeown, and Agnes Britton, her maiden name was Susan McKeown. In July i890 was married to Joshua Marksbury. Three children were born to them now nine, seven and the baby, fifteen months old. Only a few days ago she was seemingly well, attending her sick

little boy. Pneumonia set in from a severe cold and death resulted Monday evening. As a Christian Mrs. Marksbury was prompt and efficient to every motherly duty. Teaching her little to love God and respect the teachings of our Savior. These little ones will soon realize the loss of their good mother. She was loved by all who knew her and will be missed from among us but by none more than her loving husband, that patriotic brave old soldier and the little offsprings left motherless.

A large circle of neighbors and friends brother and sisters have words of loving sympathy and prayers that are earnest and true to them for wife and mother who now rests in heaven. The funeral was conducted Wednesday by Dr. Tharp and burial at Oak Hill.

Horse Thief Caught.

Three weeks ago last Friday night the valuable horse and buggy of Frank Custer were stolen from the hitch rack in Darlington.
