TIE TOWNSHIPS GROCERY ORDERS.
Samples of the Orders Given Applicants for
Help-A Discrepancy in Values.

For several months complaints have been
numerous of the manner in which the poor peo-
pie are treated. who are compelled to call upon
the township for relief. AS time has gone on
these complaints have become more numerous
and louder. Patrick j. Ryan, who is now a
deputy sheriff keeps grocery at No. l9l West
South street. Under former township trustees,
when orders were given to the poor for provis-
ions, the orders were good at any one of half a
dozen or more groceries for the amounts
they called for. Under the benefcent
sway of Mr.. Kitz no such option
is accorded to the unfortunate re.
cipient of township charity. Now every order

favors. will probably some day paas the domain
OF suspicion and enter the field of fact. 1t may
be that the day is not far off. Distance is not
the only enchantment in the pauper view Of this
grocery on the outskirts of Greenlawn cemetery
There have been complaints that the articles
of food furnished were not first-class, not even
second-class (but poor people have no right to
look Mr. Kitz's gift horse in the mouth), and that
So order should buy so little. Comparisons
similar to those that prevailed in beleaguered
Richmond during the war, when burgher would
take his money to market in a basket and return
with his family supplies in his pocket book, have
not been infrequert among the ungrateful
patrons of Mr.. kits admirably arranged elee-
mosynary system.
Yesterday afternoon Journal reporter was
shown and permitted to dissect two of the orders
recently filled at the township cooperative gro
Gerry. They are represented to be fair samples
of the twodollar orders as issued by Mr. Kitz
and filled by the only genuine and properly
accredited township grocer.
The first of these orders was issued to B. F.
Stevens, No. Fl Grant street, and reads fol-
lows. The values are attached by grocer, and
are fair retail prices for the qualities furnished

GRAND OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES ORANGE GIRL"
The Ford company gave Planquettes Orange

audience but the performance was not such as
is calculated to add greatly to the reputation of

as Nell Gwynne, part that affords her opportu-
mites to display her versatility as an actress
Mr.. Denham was amusing as the Beadle and
Mr.. Norcross's excellent voice was heard to
advantage in the part of Weazle; but
otherwise the cast was not especially good, for
both Mr. Peakes and MIR. Christie seemed to be
either careless or not well up in the parts they
were assigned to, and the chorus sang indiffer-
emily. The orchestra was discordant AT the
matinee this afternoon, for which the general
admission is only 25 cents, with so cents for
sofa chairs, FRA Diavoo," which is said to
be the company's best performance, will be
given, with Mrs. Wallace as Lady Alcash
