The Committee issued 1000 meal ticket,
and then shut down On the plan, as they
learned, beyond all dispute, that q gang Of
unprincipled scoundrels had imposed upon
them.
Senator Doolin neglected his own private
matters in order to assist the Committee.
The obligation will not be forgotten.
We have no personal acquaintance with
Mr.. Colerick. but have seen enough to bear
witness to the fact that he has lone good
work the past few days.
No man, in all our community, has per-
| formed better service than Max Oberfelder.
| lie volunteered to act in any capacity, and
Senator Doolin told us con~fidentially yes
terday hat MAJ was ''he-l on the end OF
. poker" and that he bull-dozed more peo-
pie ont Of moro money, in . less space Of
time, than any man he ever met with.

A larger mount Of goods, provisions,
etc.. were distributed yesterday than any
day since the fire.
We're We the proprietor Of q grocery
store, we should endeavor to secure the
services Of Mrs. Lambert MollnelIi and
Mrs. Julia Barnes as CLERKS. The manner
in which these ladies' handled and tied up
packages would have excited the envy OF
any dapper gentleman that ever lounged
over q counter.
No better committee could have been
selected for the distribution Of supplies.
and We studied their characteristics
closely. Probert was thoughtful and atten-
tive; Chamblin and Foley shave and conr-
teous und r the most trying circumstances;
George W. Baker. with the instincts OF a
lawyer. said but little, but carefully
scrutinized the faces Of the applicants,
and drew his own conclusions from their
stories, while Sadler's gruff but honest
greeting implied that he would assist the
needy. but was not disposed to stand any
nonsense.
San Francisco's contribution amounted
to about 81, 900.

plies on hand.
Mrs. ID. W.. Lcvan. Mrs. Judge Daven-
port aud Mrs. Fred. HASTEN worked faith
fully and patiently at all hours, both in
and out Of the Committee's rooms, and it
will be many a day befors their kindness
will be forgotten by those whom they
sought aud assisted in ont of the way
places, where others would scarcely have
cared TO go.
