Our people were quite enthusiastic

Send Your Check.

The Woman's Relief society is doing
good work in this city. The society
is greatly hampered and cramped for
means to do coed with. Still to show
that they have the sympathy of all
and the financial assistance of some,
at least, we are permitted to say,
without giving names, that one gentle
man sent in his check for 800, another
for s25 and another for so during the
past week. These sums came in good
time as the treasury was very low.
This noble band of women give great
deal of time, money and labor in hunt
ing up and relieving the distress of
tbs naked and hungry. They began
their work little more than a year
ago without dollar or an article of
clothing or food except what they per-
sonally contributed. At first their
field of labor was very narrow from
sheer necessity, but it has widened
until it now covers almost if not quite
the entire city. 1t is not claimed by
tnlS That they relieve all cases OF need
existing in the entire city, but they
know of nearly all cases and help them
so far as their means will allow The
ladies need further substantial en-
enlargement, and any cast off clothing
or bedding, provisions or fuel will be
gladly received, and if you do not have
any of these things then send them III
your check SO they will have the
wherewith to buy them. If all will
help according to their means there
will be no suffering from poverty in
our city. Send your contributions to
Mrs. Frank Ostrander, West End, or
Mrs. d. IL. Perry, East End. or to any
member of the society you may hap
pen to be acquainted with.

From the Leader.
1t is rumored that q meeting of the
Omaha and Northern Pacific officials
Was held in st. Paul last Tuesday. and
that the principle matter discussed
was the idea of establishing Il union
station on the East Side, and that it is
proposed to locate the same on Thomp-
son avenue and West Ninth street.
The Omaha company has found itself
compelled to build a larger station
in order to accommodate the amount
of travel, which has nearly doubled
this year. The Northern Pacific uses
the depot for their short line trains,
paving so much month for the PRIV
ilege, and it is now thought advisable
to build union station in central
location, from which all trains, includ-
ing those of the South Shore road,
would leave. However, nothing as to
the conclusions arrived at has been
learned, but good authority said yes
terday that among the improvements
next spring a large, substantial pas
seHger depot at the East End would
be prominent. The railroads are
aware or the growing Importance of
Superior, and her needs will be met
before the approach of another winter

" ell Done.

The Ladies Aid society, of the NJ.
f. church, at this end of the city, has
done good work the past year.
Through their different channels of
self sacrificing work they have raised
during the year ending last Wednes-
day, 1895, which amount has been eX-
pended in making the last payment
on the church debt and in repairs on
the church building. The ladies are
entitled to much credit for their earn
est work and great success. At their
annual meeting Wednesday evening
they elected officers for the ensuing
year as follows:
Mrs. Jane Pascoe, president.
Mrs. \. J. Davis, vice president.
Mrs. F. {. Jackson, secretary.
Mrs. j. Lutte. Christie, treasurer.

These COMMITTEES are composed of
six ladies from each end of the city,
and are chosen to act by the chairman.
The names will be published later.
The ladies are anxious to do good
wherever there is an opportunity and
to this end have decided to ask through
the columns of the papers that all
physicians and ministers report any
case of poverty or sickness where the
society can be of assistance, to any of
the above named ladies, and it is
thought with this assistance much
good may be done. The society has
been the rcceipiant of many liberal
donations from different citizens,
among whom may be mentioned the
names of Mrs Martin Pattison, A. J.
Howard and Geo. l.. Brooks. And
here let lis say that money is always
acceptable.
