Home for the Friendless.
Annual Donation Day-Large Attend.

Annual Donation Day-Large Attend-
 ance of Visitors.
 1t was annual donation day at the Home for the Friendless yesterday. A large number of ladies interested in this benevolent institu- street, Fair Haven) assembled there at p. m. The street in front was lined with the car riages of visitors. The different departments of the Home were visited and much interest and satisfaction was evinced. The institu- tion has been carried on now about fifteen years, doing much good, and is the means of relieving much suffering and of conferring persons, old and young. There are now about thirty inmates. They are of all ages some infants. Two have been adopted from the Home ill the last year. Others are adults. There are three women who are blind. One is @ colored girl, Lizzie Perkins, who is stone blind. She was born blind. She is nevertheless extremely useful and has feeble mentally and bodily, and the third is an old person, who is supported there by the North church. There was singing at the in stitution by the inmates yesterday. The oolored blind girl accompanied upon the me
 lodeon. She was formerly in an asylum for the blind. All the inmates were treated to
 refreshments and had very pleasant time.
 The total money results of donation day were
 not half as much as last year, when two hun
 dred dollars in money was contributed, and
 the supply of groceries was quite limited. In dry goods there was good contribution. No doubt many people would yet like to for
 ward goods or money to this deserving insti- | tution and any such may be left at the resi- dence of Miss. B. Hotchkiss, 13O Chapel I street, or at the store of D. s. Cooper on State street, and they will be forwarded to the institution. Recently when there was 8 deficit of $500, and that sum was needed to pay the yearly expenses, several ladies de- voted themselves to helping the Home, and raised the $500. Contributions in cast-of clothing will be gratefully accepted, as they can be made over into garments for the chil- l dren in the nursery and contributions in fannels will also be very acceptable also 1 bread and anything useful for the larder. The institution is under very efficient man. agement, and its prosperity comments itself \ to all interested in benevolent work,
