1t appears that the reliet committee, who
have been busy for days in distributing
provisions, eatables and money to the poor
of the overfowed districts, are annoyed by
claims of quite a novel character. A few
owners of property have filed claims, one
for two Thousand, another for eleven hun
dred dollars, on account of damages to
their property during the food. Small
house owners have brought up claims
against the committee for the restoration
of hens and chickens, or their value, and of
damages from other causes. The persever-
ing claimants have become so obstreporous
that one of the charitable relief committee
is obliged to keep police officer In front Of
his store.

and twenty inches forward. There is a
large and conveniently fitted open cabin,
with curtains for sunny weather, and so
arranged by means of india rubber blinds
as to be impervious to rain or cold in time
