Spooning Parlors. No longer shall the girls of Dobbs Perry blush at the dinner table when small brothers glance significantly at them and let drop naive remarks about the porch hammock being such a lovely spot?after dark. No longer shall these same small brothers levy a revenue of sodas upon their sisters' callers in return for promises not to hide behind the parlor piano. I Emancipation from the tyranny of 7 peeping eyes and bantering tongues has come in the form of a rendevious ^ opened by the Welfare association of Dobbs Ferry, at Main and Cedar * streets. * In daylight the new public club house opened by the association is an ordinary cottage, but at night its rooms become a number of spooning parlors. Dim lights, dark corners, soundproof walls that give out no telltale echoes and, above all, freedom from small brothers have made of this cottage a small corner of the Garden of Paradise. Miss Ruth Underhill, who is to supervise the discussions about the weather which will be carried on in the club house, has been busy during { the week issuing verbal invitations to young people whom she thought might like to visit it, with the result that the various rooms were crowded?in spots.?Dobbs Ferry, N. Y., dispatch to New York Times. ? * , S ? X ' t HOUSE YIELDS OLD COIN. British' Coppers Found Behind Wal Paper in Mansion. British copper coins more than 20( years old have been found in the olc Lobdel mansion in South Wilmington which is being razed to make roon for a six-story manufacturing plant. The coins were between the wal paper and the washboard in what was the parlor of the house, and wen found by Thomas W. Cunningham, ol South Wilmington, an employee ol t Vi c r>nm r>o n v Some of them were so badly worr that it was impossible to make oul the exact date, but the figures "170?" are visible. Other coins are dated 1775. The house was buill 140 years ago as the home of one of the pioneer members of the Lobdell family. INTERESTING PREDICTION. Concerning the Homes of the Future. I conceive the future homes of the people as separate communities, say blocks of a hundred flats or perhaps more, standing in a common garder which will be kept up by the estate, writes W. L. George, in Harper's foi June. Each flat will probably have one room for each inhabitant, so as to secure the privacy which is very necessary even to those who no longer believe in the home idea; it will also have a common room where privacy can be dispensed with. Its furniture will be partly personal, but not very, for a movement which is developing in America will extend, and we, too, in England may be provided, as are today the more fortunate Americans, with an abundance of cupboards and dressers ready fixed to the walls. There will be no coal, but only electricity and gas, run from the central plant. There will be no kitchens, but one central kitchen, and a central dining room, run?and this is very important?by a committee of tenants. That committee will appoint and control cooks and all servants; it will buy all provisions, and it will buy them cheaply, for it will purchase by the hundredweight. It will control the central laundry, and a paid laundrymaid will check the lists ?there will no longer be, as once upon a time on Saturday evenings, a hundred persons checking a hundred lists. It is even quite possible that the central organization may darn socks. The servants will no longer be slaves, personally attached to a few persons, their chattels; they will be day-workers, laboring eight hours, without any master save their duty. The whole system of the householder will be . grouped for the purpose of buying and distributing everything that is needed at any hour. There will be no more personal shopping; the wholesale cleaner will call on certain days without being told to; the communistic window-cleaners will dispose of every window on a given day; there may even be in the garden a communistic system of dog kennels. I have no proposal for controlling cats, for I understand that no man can do that , . . . but then there will be no mice in those days. BUFFALO FEARS BAPTISM. Animal Escapes From Corral and is Promptly Lassoed. An exciting buffalo hunt in Centra] park stirred the families of the zoc and brought thrills to the matutinal speeders along the bridle path. A baby buffalo, four days old, broke from cover some time in the morning and Bill Snyder, the head keeper of the park, found its mother crying when he reported for duty. Today had been set for the baby's christening. He was to be beribboned and presented with flowers and named Bill Cody, after famous Buffalo Bill. Maybe the little chap gol wind of the trouble in store for him or maybe it was his natural bent foi liberty that impelled him to looser an iron spike of his corral. At anj rate, about 8 o'clock in the morning the telephone in the arsenal police station began ringing and frightened riders declared a strange and fearsome looking animal was amuck or the bridle path. The baby looks like anything bul a buffalo, with his wobbly legs, flal feet and funny shaped big head. He scared people. Bill Snyder and z dozen intrepid hunters of Centra] park went out and lassoed the buffalo and now he will have to be christened whether he likes it or not ?New York Evening World. Willing to Please. A certain college president wore side whiskers. Whenever he suggested removing them, there was i division of opinion in the familyOne morning he entered his wife's dressing room, razor in hand, witl his right cheek shaved smooth. "How do you like it, my dear?" h< asked. If you think it looks well, ! will shave the other side, too." i A First Reading. * Collector?Did you look at that little bill I left yesterday, sir?
