A DESTITUTE WOMAN.

| To THE EDITOR OF The NEWS:
| sIR-Iwo weeks ago a colored woman
in quite i'll health stopped in at 40 Codding
| street, where she has since remained, a
| sufferer with cry sipelas and an abscess.
Several members of Pond street Church
Christian Endeavor Society were informed
| of the matter and made a visit to the
house, where they learned that the woman
| was in helpless condition and needed
both medical aud financial aid.
They gave her a little money and en-
deavored to get physician to call and
see the woman, but as there seemed no
chance for pay the call was not ] o 'ded.
Finally q physician gave one of the
members of the Society note of intro
duction to the receiving physician of the
Rhode Island Hospital. to see IL the
woman could be taken there. The wards
for patients with contagious diseases were
all occupied and the woman could not
get accommodations.
Application was made then at st.
Joseph's Hospital with ike result for the
same reason.
Those seeking comfort for the sick were
informed that II was a case for Mr.. Cum
mings, overseer of the poor. Last Satur-
day p. m. the case was made known to
bim. On Friday the city physician called
to see the sick woman, but did nothing
for her until Saturday afternoon, when
he called and dressed the abscess.
Since then he has not been near and
nothing has been done to alleviate the
poor woman's suffering condition.
Besides the inattention to the sick wo-
man the overseer of the poor has let her
remain burden uron the hands
of the poor people, where, on account of
the close compartments in a small house.
Is quite inconvenient TO accommodate a
sick sSrson.
From all accounts obtainable by the
writer IL Is one OF the most fiagrant cases
OF neglect inaginablo. II reports are
true, the overseer OF the poor has more
than once paid little attention to the
needs OF colored patients which came to
his notice. Duty is duty, and all should
receive attention from true officer duly
elected by the people

EARLY REGISTRATION.
Number Of Names on Books Larger Than
Ever Before.

Up to the present time some two hum
dred and fifty citizens OF Providence have
registered for the coming year. This
number is unprecedeniedly large; In fact,
many times greater than at the CORE
spending period in preceding years. The
commissioners said this morning that In
nsarly every instance the citizens W o
have registered early have stated that
they din so to escape standing in line for
hours as they were compelled to do during
the closing days OF December last.
II is thought that before Decen ber
arrives again a much larger proportion Of
the citizens will have registered than ever
tefore because of the disc omforts they
experienced by being compelled to stand
in line. A good many citizens who here
tofore have been under the impression
that the duty of registration could be
performed only in December have learned
that they We're mistaken, and that the
books are open from the first until the
last day of the year. Many of these will
also be among those to register early In
the opinion Of the commissioners.

gether for once on behalf OF the Cubans.
There we're "a of them, and In the same
way the six Senator'S who voted against
the resolution were not influenced by
anything else but their opiuions on this
particular matter. This six Senators who
thus differed from their brother Senator's
and misunderstood public sentiment
were three Democrats from the South
and three Republicans from the North,
including the junior senator from Rhode
Island.
There Is nothing in these resolutions
that circumstances do not fully warrant.
The war has been in progress year, and
1t may be said that never in the history
OF conflicts of this character has so great
progress been made In SO short a, time.
The Cuban armies inhabit, IL they do not
control practically, the entire island. They
have marched from Santiago in the East
to the gates OF Habana in the West.
They numrer, perhaps, forty thousand
men. II they have not driven the Spanish
troops OF the islind, yet do they control
the situation. If they have fought no
great battles they have suffered no more
defeats than did the armies of the
American revolution which somehow
wrested final victory from nothing else
but string of defeats. The resolutions
adopted yesterday recognized the fact
that the Cub ms are making legitimate
warfare against Spain and then, as rep

pie, who believe in republican form of

The ground was covered with snow;
not a human footstep was to be seen,
but after wandering here, now there,
Helen saw the flame of the fire, far
above her, and began climbing. After a
short time she reached the peak of the
mountain and saw the fire, round which
the 10 months were sitting. At first she
hesitated and was frightened, but soon
recovering herself she went boldly to
the fire, and stretching out her hands
warmed herself without asking permits

"What brings you here and what seek

"You have no right to question me,

know what I seek?" answered Helen
haughtily, and turning her head and
back to the fire she went toward the
forest.
Old January frowned and waved his
wand over his head.
In the twinkling of an eye the sky
was filled with heavy clouds, the fire
burned low and large snowflakes began
to fall, while an icy wind howled through
the mountain. In the midst of this
dreadful storm Helen began to curse
her sister and call on the good God, as
she knew the cloak could not keep her
body from stiffening and freezing.
Her mother waited impatiently for
her daughter. Every little while she
