The Woman's Dispensary.


This excellent charity institution is located
in the large building, northeast corner Of ~
street and Maryland avenue. II is for the ben
eft Of women who are in need Of treatment
| and who are unable to pay physician. The
| necessity for such Q dispensary had been ap-
parent for many years. but it was not until
1888 that any steps were taken to establish one,
| when 1t was organized by large number Of
our prominent citizens. II was subsequently
incorporated under the laws Of the District OF
Columbia. Section of the constitution reads:
That the particular business and objects
Of said corporation is to establish and maintain
| In the District of Columbia free dispensary
for the treatment Of the medical and surgical
diseases Of women and children by physicians
who shall be women. Since 1t was first opened
1t has been highly appreciated by the poor in
every section Of our city. The attendance has
greatly increased during the past year and
every day between the hours OF IL and 8 o'clock
may be seen large numbers waiting their turn
to be treated. DR.. Jeanette J. Sumner is the
tention daily. She is assisted by Drs. Day. Sill
lers. Crosson, and Pulskanp. The board
OF directors are: DR.. Jos. L. johnson, presi-
dent; Mrs. Almena B. Williams, vice president;
treasurer; Jos. K. McCammon, DR.. Jeanette
j. Sumner, Mrs. N. r. Stroud, DR.. J. r. Brom-
well, and DR.. M. Muncaster. Owing to the
large increase in attendance during the past
year they have been considerably embarrassed
in the management for want Of necessary
funds. Aside from the $500 appropri-
ated annually by the District it has been sup
ported by private contributions. Any person
who may pay the sum Of IS may be elected q
contributing member Of the institution and il
entitled to one vote at the annual election of
directors.
In order to raise greatly needed funds for
carrying on the work Of this institution, an

The house Of Mrs. Susie johnson. at

The hired man had got up and built tie
fire, and then went out to attend to his
morning feeding of the stock, When a
little later Mrs. johnson went to the
kitchen to get breakfast ready she found
the whole kitchen abaze. The fire had
no doubt caught from the pipe going into
the chimney, it being close to the ceiling
and the ceiling being of flooring
readily kindlcd. Seeing that she could do
nothing herself to put it out, she gave
the alarm. The neighbors soon arrived
and went to work with II will and got
most of the furniture out. The house
was soon in ashes. 1t was fine residence
and uninsured, the insurance having run
out some time ago and was not renewed.
1t will be a big loss to her. 1t was but a
week before that the house of II. Shriver,

burned with household goods and all in =.
