The city Department of outdoor Poor

40 .oVSictS is rendering eNcclcnt ana.
Inc cold weather makes all help need
ed. There is undoubtedly much suffer-
ing IN Richmond. From $50 to $50 poor
people are daily assisted in one way or
another by this department, and about
l.S0O people are being cared for. The
office of the superintendent in the City
Hall is crowded every day by those
who are in need of fuel ana food. and
it is through his good Judgment and
discretion that the provisions made by
the city for the care of the poor out
side the almshouse do so much good
and so so far.
