Loree and James Neilson to the College for Women, The young woman, who is Miss Mina Higgins, a graduate of N. J.

responded as follows: "Two public spirited 'men have done more for us all than any number of men without their. spirit; would or could have done. Nor is this the first gift of either. Since the College for Women first came they have been ardent, hard-working partners. When it scarcely seemed a college, so small and so informal it was, Mr.

Loree sent us the famous Quaker picture, which hangs. at, the entrance, ot College Hall. An original replica of Washington followed, and countless gifts of carefully selected books and pictures, to which it required not only money but infinite thought and affection. When the small classes grew homesick, Mr. Neilson came to cheer.

It was he who made possible the beautiful outdoor production of this year and last. The college was in need, and these two were friends indeed. Land, money, though, love--it is gifts of this sort which count in the world's progress. for themselves have they given, but for others.

A great deal of interest attends work which is now in progress on the steeple of the former St. James M. E. Church, now the Hungarian Fresbyterian Church, corner of Bayard and Schuyler streets. When the job is completed the steeple will be sixty-six feet shorter than it was.

The steeple proper, octagional in shape, was eighty-three feet in height, and it will be reduced to seventeen feet. For some time there has been discussion as to whether there was danger that the steeple might collapse in a high wind. A man whom a Home News reporter came across while watching the steeplejacks at work said it had been reported that the steeple was in danger of falling when he was a boy. He considered it perfectly safe the way it stood. The head steeplejack disagreed with him.

Lawrence Berghout of 360 Gordon street, Perth Amboy, who has the contract for shortening up the steeple and putting it in good condition again, said the job 15 one of the most ticklish he has had. It is so ticklish, in fact, that he could not get public liability insurance to cover it. RUTGERS PREP HAS GIFT OF $500 TOWARD GYM DEBT Announcement Made by Headmaster Kelly at Commencement TodayRev.

Formerly he WAS a sallor. He says the steeple oscillated a distance of five feet in a high wind, and all that kept rec. from letting go were eight inch bolts. When there was no wind, Mr. Berghout said.

the steeple stood well out of plumb. Had it let go. he said it would probably have landed on the Cathers residence across Schuyler street, toward the rear of which it leaned. The top of the steeple was 220 feet from the sidewalk. Near the top was a large tin g.obe and above the globe was a similar star.

These had to be lowered to the sidewalk, which was accomplished successfully a week after the work had' started. The globe is 50 large in diameter that it will not gO through an ordinary door. How to get this globe and the star topping it down was the problem. The steeple was SO wind-swept that erection of a scaffold was out of the question. Fifteen Tons of Slate Mr.

Rerghout, with two helpers knocked holes in three sides of the steeple at its Through these holes boatmen's seats were slung. and the work of removing the i slate rooting began. The slate alone weighed fifteen tons. After the slate had been lowered fn boxes into the belfry of the church, the top of the steeple WAS knocked away until there was room to admit the globe easily. Then the big -timber, ten which It rested, W8.9 lowered five feet at a.

time into the belfry and sawed off, the lowering and sawing operations being repeated more than a cozen times. Finally tole and star were guided over the Bayard street side of the property and lowered to the sidewalk. They are now being reguilded preparatory to re-erection on top of the shortened steeple. Berghout said that usually there was the closest kind of competition on steeplejack jobs around here, but that on this one he had 110 competition. Others looked at the job and did not care to tackle it Berghout said that one false step in his business was fatal.

A mistake would be likely to mean that he would to jail foe manslaughter it ERe did not go to the cemetery or the hospital. He fell a. distance of 160 feet once, he said, his life being saved owing to the fact that he landed on a maze cf telephone wires. He still has scars from the fall. The Bayard street job has called forth no little praise from people who know how difficult it was.

City Engineer Asher Atkinson told Berghout that it was the nicest of work he had ever seen. Others were equally enthusiastic. The sidewalks on Bayard and Schuyler streets adjoining the church have been roped off while the work has been in progress.
