EXPECT TO ERECT GOLDFINGER BLOCK IN JINETY DAYS Palais Royal Proprietor and Vaughan Heirs Refuse to Discuss Terms of Exchange, Said to be $125,000

More specific plans of Henry Goldfinger, who is negotiating with the heirs of the late E. G. Vaughan for the purchase of the old Vaughan building at Eighth and Main streets were learned today. It is said the deal -will be completed in a few days and that the purchase price is in the neighborhood of $125,000. Mr. Goldflnger did not discuss the transaction. He did not desire that anything be said publicly which might in any way hinder the negotiations which he now has on foot. He denied the report, however, that any theatrical men from Decatur, 111., or any other city were in Richmond today to arrange for the location of a vaudeville or motion picture theatre in the new building but that all negotiations which he has had have been with local men. It was learned that the store rooms, which will be sixty by fifteen feet in dimensions, will rent from $75 to $225 u month. As far as can be ascertained at present, all of the fifteen store rooms will soon have occupants. Alters Plans Some. The announcement of Mr. Goldflnger's plans yesterday was welcome information to hundreds of Richmond people who have condemned the dilapidated Vaughan building for years because of the shoddy appearance which is augmented by the fact that it is located on the central corner of the city. A solid new building of the proportions planned by Mr. Ooldflnger would give the entire business section a better appearance, it is said. It was reported today that Mr. Goldfinger had altered his plans and would erect a two story building and that the second floor would be taken by a hotel man who would convert it into a European hotel of high class. After the completion of the deal and the acceptance of architect's plans, construction work will be started with despatch. It is said part of the plans include the completion of the structure for occupancy in two and one-half months and not more than ninety days at most. The negotiations are being carried on entirely between Mrs. Lewis G. Reynolds, formerly Miss Mary Vaughan and Mr. Goldfinger, the attorneys for j the two not being actively interested but remaining behind the scene. Mrs. Reynolds and Mr. Goldfinger said the plans would be made public after the deed for the property had become the property of Mr. Goldfinger. CARD OF THANKS.

Open Season For

When Jigger Crop Becomes Ripe

l W i' Children Frolic Every person in Wayne county who has a relative or relatives, the more the better, is doing it. In fact, hundreds of them are planning and looking forward to it. The Browns, Greens, Blacks, Whites, Grays, Blews, Redds and all other colors of the rainbow are doing it on a large scale. Second only to them follow the Smith and the Jones clans, which are also doing it on an exstensive plan. Briefly, this is the open season for family reunions. Anybody can have a family reunion without asking the city or state any odds. No license or permit is necessary. To hold a family gathering only a few things are essential: A family, a gray-haired sire, two or more babies in arms, a wood or shady grove, a swimming hole, baked chicken, chicken fried, stewed chicken, chicken boiled, fifty-seven varieties of cake, pickles, pies and jelly, hard-boiled eggs and at least nine million jiggers. Evolution of Reunions. The first family reunion of which history tells was the return of the prodigal, with the subsequent killing of the fatted calf. Since that time the evolution of the family reunion has been very rapid. It is no longer necessary for a member of the tribe to leave the family roof and grovel with the swine, living on corn husks, to get the proper stage settings for a family reunion. Members of the clan decide on a meeting place, set the date and all Is ready. The country cousins come in their big seven-passenger cars, as do some of the more fortunate city brethren, although most of them are content to take an interurban or swelter along in a hot day coach on a jerkwater accommodation. Unlike any other event a family reunion does not transpire and then pass immediately into oblivion. It is preceded by a long period of anticipation and followed by pleasant memories, T LIVE STOCK (Corrected daily by Anton Stolle. Phone 131C) HOG3.

Reunions Comes

,T dm T. W lr in Shady Woods which feed the imagination until time to begin anticipating again. Days before the event is scheduled, mother begins fixing the things that are carefully stored away on the top shelf of the pantry until the time to fill the baskets. While mother cuts the thick slices of bread and spreads the yellow butter, the youngsters look on with hungry eyes and finally receive a "piece" when they promise to run out and play until time to start. Arriving at the chosen spot there is a superfluous flow of family affection, which spends itself in kisses and effusive greetings, but which generally ends, later in the day, by sister Belle telling brother Tom's wife how to rear her children. No reunion is complete without a few who attend for the first time. These visitors do not mingle much and are, for the most part, carried around by fond mothers, who expect the rest of the family, including bald-headed bachelor uncles to gush over them. Next comes the feed, which is the only true example of the community spirit, and plan in which all contribute something and then take out what they want. Snowy table clothes are placed on the ground under spreading trees, where young and old gather, squatting Indian fashion. Despite the myriads of bugs everybody is expected to eat everything offered, and to be lavish with compliments. Following the picnic dinner is a lull, broken only by the snores of the men who shade their faces with newspapers and sleep, and by the screams and laughter of the children as they frolic in and on the water. Then the sun sinks over the river, things are put into baskets and the meeting breaks up. As the last touring car chugs away every member of the family thanks his lucky stars that it's over, declares he had the time of his life, and begins to look forward to the next year.

IN MAKING ARREST Harvey Compton is in city jail this afternoon with a badly nicked head and Officer Lawler has another nick in his faithful club. "Harvey said I couldn't take him to jaid and I convinced him that he was mistaken," remarked Lawler as he washed the bloodstains off his hands. "He has been separated from his wife and he went to see her this afternoon at the old Akron hotel and took the baby. She called for assistance and when I arrived I told Harvey to beat it. I told him to take the baby if he wanted to as he had as much right to it as she did. He told me that he did not have to go, that he had no intention of going and 'that he would like to see me make him move on. I had had trouble with him before so without wasting any words I hit him over the head with my club and knocked him down. He kept right on flghting, how.ever, until I put the bracelets on him and then he tried, to kick me." Compton was brought to the city building in the police' automobile. Lawler shows no affects, of his battle. Compton is a Kentuckian. CITY STATISTICS Births. Mr. and Mrs. William C. Baldwin, 812 North Nineteenth street, girl. Deaths and Funerals. BENKDICT Rachel J.
