The relief work of the police continues
with unabated zeal. Nearly one thousand
families have been assisted during the
three days that charity has been dispensed
by the police. This is Independent of the
relief which has been extended by individ-
uals and various charitable organizations
and societies.
The magnificent work done by the police
since they began 10 seek out the needy is
most praiseworthy, and only goes to show
what can be done with practical agency
for administering charity. About $500 has
been expended and 1900 people have been
assisted.
Were it not for the prompt and ready
aid given by the police it is believed that
scores Of suffering persons would have per-
ished OF hunger and sickness. Coal has
been stored in large quantities at all the
police stations and is being distributed
TO all who need fuel and are without means
TO purchase it This is one OF the most i'm
portant features of the work undertaken
by the police.
Some coal dealers have contributed lib

merchant alone donated twenty-five tons.
The work is being continued day and night,
and much suffering is yet to be relieved.
