Winter is approaching, and distress

disposed. Schoos yourselves to respond
liberally TO the appeals Of the Asso-
ciated Charities and other kindred or
ganizabons which best serve the pur-
poses Of charity. There are mndeserv-
ing and unprincipaled persons In every
community who do not hesitate % prey
upon the better side OF human nature.
Regularly organized societies make it
their business to ascertain who these
persons are and exercise all diligence
b prevent a miscarriage OF the offer
ings OF the fortunate to the unfortu-
nate. There are those who regard
charitable organizations as scarped and
scrimped channels for dealing out char
ity but experience has demonstrated
that even i'm the matter Of giving to
the poor and needy there is great merit
in system and discrimination.

DAUGHTER OF CUBA" TONIGHT

DAUGHTER OF CUBA" TONIGHT.
The stirring war drama, "A Daughter
Of Cuba" tells story that will never
be forgotten. Miss Jean MaWson, the
authoress, has succeeded in touching
on a subject dear to the heart Of every
true American, who followed the heroic
experiences Of the gallant Seventy-iDst
New York Volunteers, in their late
struggle at Siboney, where they SUI
fered from not only the hail Of bullets,
but the many other vleissitudes of war
She has so constructed her story that
not only the sober, sombre realities are
depicted, but many Of the humorous in
cidents which actually occurred are
also pleasingly portrayed. The play
begins at the beautiful home Of Captain
Price, OF the Seventy-frst, at Cornwall
on the Hudson, with which the first act
deals. The following two acts portray
the work of the famous regiment at the
front, and shows their great battle at
Siboney, with a Maxim gun in full ac-
ton, and the last act Welcomes the he
roes home, victorious and happy, as
well they may be after their gallant
work. "A Daughter Of Cuba" will be
at the Grand Opera House this evsn-
ing.
