Temporary Relief Society.

At the time of the first outbreak of
plague, when it was known that the
authorities had decided to burn the
infected districts in Chinatown and to
send the refugees into quarantine,
number of Japanese ladies got togeth-
er and organized a Temporary Relief
Society.
This society is most grateful to the
many kind friends for the hearty as
sistance 1t has received. BY their lib
eral donations it was able to provide
clothing and other necessary articles
to hundreds of destitute japanese who
were unfortunate in losing everything
during the great fire of January goth.
1t may be of interest to the gener-
Gus donors to know that the donations
received amounted to 1896.
Besides LILO garments for men,
women and children, 5SS pairs of I'M
derwear needles, thread, scissors,
combs, soap, ETC., We're distributed.
Now that the people in the detention
camps have been released, this society
will disband, transferring the balance
of its fund into the hands of the jap
anese Benevolent Society, an organi-
cation which is doing general relief

ESTABLISHMENT That Failed.

One OF the most hopeful signs Of
better tendency in the south was
furnished in the Georgia house Of
representatives when the Hardwick
bill, which contemplated the prac-
tical disfranchisement of the Negro
voters OF the state, was defeated by
vote OF l27 to 3. The heartiness
and almost complete unanimity
with which the lower house ruled
the measure out OF court are in re-
freshing contrast to the short
sightednesS and thinly disguised
hypocrisy that have disgraced some
other states.-Boston Transcript.
