activity and preparation. The first floor
Of the mission begins to look like a store
house for provisions. Hundreds of bushels
Of potatoes and other vegetables, piles of
bread and focks Of dead turkeys cucumber
floor corners and tables. The turkeys will
be baked at the National Hotel and the ie-
mainder of the cooking will be done at the
mission. Applications for aid are coming
in by the score When the reporter called
this afternoon there was line of poorly
fed and worse-clad people in waiting.
These gave their names and addresses to
the secretaries. These memoranda were
turned over to the investigators, and, If
found to be worthy cases, dinner will be
served. A committee of ladies is at work
filling in the names and addresses of bene-
| ficiaries on the tags which will be tied to
the half-bushel baskets in which the din
ners will be served.

lions which have been solicited by the mis-
