IN NEED OF HELP.
Temporary Home for Soldiers Ask
for Donations,

An erroneous impression prevails that
the temporary home for soldiers 9th
street is not in need of further donations.
The home has been in successful operation
for two weeks, furnishing comfortable and
healthy lodging, wholesome and appetizing
food in abundance, and all necessary medi-
cal attention and medicines for such MEM
bers of the 1st Regiment, District of Co
iumbia Volunteers, as have no homes here,
and it has received the generous support
of the public. 1t will be necessary to main
tain this institution during the remainder
of the period covered by the furloughs OF
the soldiers, as they are yet in the service
and cannot leave until they are mustered
out, six weeks hence. Further contribu-
items of provisions and money are there
fore solicited by the ladies in charge, who
will be glad to receive them at the home,
No AZ 9th street northwest, at any time
during the day or evening, and to make due
acknowledgment of all contributions
Services will be held at the home Sunday
afternoon at 4 o'clock.
Donations, consisting of deicacies sub
stantial foods and cash, have been received
since last report from. the foowing "A

DIAMONDS FOUND IN OHIO.
Farmer Plows Up Gem Said to Be of
the Finest Quality.

Columbus, O., Nov. 3o.--While blowing
a few months ago William Taylor, a
farmer residing near Milford, O., found a
stone which has proven to be quite a
treasure Taylor took it to a diamond
cutter and when informed that it was a
diamond he was paid price that pleased
him, but he little dreamed of its real value.
Then the stone was taken to Europe and
placed before experts, who declared it to
be one of the finest ever found in the
world.
