LADIES RELIEF SOCIETY.


The Good Work 10 is Doing-The Or
phans' Home.
One OF the most favorably known insti-
tuiions of Seattle is the Ladies' Relief
Society. It was incorporated under the
laws OF the territory April 8, 1854, and
during its perpetuance has accomplished
so much good that today its name is a
synonym OF the beneyclence that the ladies
have extended on every hand. The poor
and needy of the city has been provided
with clothing. food and everything neoes-
sEry TO make life bearahe. During the
past year the true character and value OF
snch an institution has been very plainly
demonstrated. Directly after the great
fire the ladies went TO work with q will
and gave valuable assistance TO the general
reiiet committee. The poor and needy
were found, cared for. and made 20 believe
that they had something TO live for, the
noble example of perseverance, and forti-
tude taught them by good deeds OF the
society carrying them over the dark days
and starting them anew on straight road
10 prosperity. The motto Of the society is
to seek those in poverty and sickness,
not 10 be applied TO for assistance
In 1854 urgent demands were made upon
the society 10 care for the orphaned child
rem of the city, and q branch was insti-
tuted BY the society, devoted To that work.
The splendid building near Lake Union
was erected soon after, ladies employed 20
take charge, and many little ones have
since found home there. The first year
eight or ten children were cared for, she
second year, 1855, some eighteen or twenty.
while during he past year the average
number has been thirty. The object of the
institution is to care for homeless children
between the age of two and twelve. In a
great many instances widowed mothers.
who were compelled 20 work for llveli-
hood. have left their children there TO be
cared for. Little ones who have been
thrown on the county in every instance have
and cared for At the home. They are there
taught housework. and when old enough,
are sent 10 the public schools.
During the past year 1--WE children have
been adopted by kind families in the city
and country. The society is very partieu-
lar ia this respect II never allows a child
to he adopted unless the persons wanting
them can give excellent references and
show that they wiI make good foster
parents. Nearly ali Of the children have
been adopted in the country.
The following ladies constitute the board
OF officers Of the Relief Society: President.
Mrs John Leary; vice president, Mrs. ].

THE SEATTLE PoST0FFICE.
Astounding Increase In All Kinds of
Nail Matter.
Money Orders Amounting 70 s7o0,ooo-
Nearly GO. 600 Registered Packages
-sea,3s0 In Postage.

There Is no more certain statistical Their
monster By which population may Be ap-
prcxinatsd than the postoftice returns. A
deserted village needs no postmaster; the
records Of mail matter do not lie. The
condition OF the Seattle posfofhce : far
from satisfactory. notwithstanding the ut
most efforts of A. Nj. Brookess the efficient
postmaster, loyalty aided By Assistant
Postmaster Colquett and force which has
worked far beyond the hours the govern
ment viii pay for. The increase in busi-
ness during the past yeSr has exceeded al
expectations, although the pre-ordination
system hy which the amount OF the next
years business is based upon that of the
preceding year is always detrimental to
offices in growing eenters.
The business for the year 1859 cannot be
summarized into exact figures in every de-
partmenk, as they cannot be determined
for several days, the immense influx OF
matter having prevented the usual strict
record. At noon Of December 81 the post
nisster-generai autographed the postmaster
Of Seattle resembling the general orders,
and authorizing him to obtain temporary
assistance. By working on Sunday and
Christmas day all the registered letters
were dispatched, but the letter mails are
today tweEty-four hours behind delivery,
and1here are newspapers in bags which
arrived two weeks ago.
A comparison of the business for the
two past years viii show how such condi-
ton has arisen, Notwithstanding the fact
that on July /, 1850, the Office was raised
to the dignity of the first class, with its ac-
companying augmentation of force. The
years totals cannot be given, but the
figures for the month of November, 1855,
and those OF November, 1889, afford . suf-

The amount OF money covered by the

1859 can not be given for the reasons already
advanced, but the number issued up to
noon of December 81, 1850, can be compared

cause the data are complete and intelligent
parallels are possible.

The aggregate sum covered by these
money orders and those paid out at Seattle
in 1884 was s25s 6is.9S Two midsummer
months in 1889 alone gave an average of
$4,000 each; so that for the year the
amount involved can not be less than 5000

the money passed during November and
December was much larger than in the
earlier part OF the year.

The growth OF the schools of Seattle II
commensurate with that Of the city. The
total number 81 pupils enrolled ct the close
OF last term was only . few hundred less
than the enrolment Of Portland and about
double that OF Tacoma. The only reason
why Seaftle's registration is not several
thousand greater, Is the lack Of sufficient
school accommodation. Despite all
obstacles, there has been reguiar and
surprising increase in the registration and
average daily attendance and a CORES
pondsng decrease in cases OF corporal
punishment and suspension. The discs-
pline 81 the Seattle schools rs wei rs the
scholasship Is deserving OF the highest
commendaticn. New aehool-houses are
soon 70 be built and this coming term there
will be more accommodation and better
equipment fes both pupils and teachers.
The need for separate high school build
ing IS generally recognized and viii soon
BE- realized.
Progress Is likewise indicated in the rec
oras OF the University Of Washington.
where several needed improvements are
contemplated and are likely 10 be consum-
mated during the coming term.
