OPEN WASHROOM
FOR POOR PEOPLE
Where Women Can Have
Utensils for Doing Work
TO SUPPORT THEMSELVES
Klndling Yard May Be Opened
This Fall.
70 SUPPORT THEMSEL YES

The Associate Charities has been in
corporated that the promoters of this
charitable organization could do more
and better work in helping the poorer
classes of this city help themselves and
that the idea for which the society was
organized. which has been followed out
TO some extent, could be carried further,
that Of giving needy ones aid by having
them earn all or a part OF what they re-
ceive. and also placing conveniences in
such manner that those who are willing
TO work may do SO.
For some time the directors and active
members of the organization have been
considering the plan OF the establishment
of wash room, with wash tubs and
boards, plenty of good hot water and all
the necessary commences for women and
men to wash clothing.
There are a number of women in this
city who make a fair living for them
selves and families by taking in wash
ing and there are number OF others
who would like TO do so but have not
the cash to purchase the necessary ar
ticles to do this work. In the wash
pect TO open this fall men and women
may bring their own and others washing.
and in this room they will be provided
with the tubs boards, soap and water
and other things necessary for the work.
A nominal charge will be made for the
use of the articles in order TO pay for
the heating and rent.
Another thing the directors hope to
establish this fall will De a kindiing yard
where all kinds of timber, such as old
boxes, broken boards and timbers will
be brought by the agents of the society
and here the poor but needy men can
chop up the kindling to pay for their
meals and lodging. The kindling will be
sold to pay the expenses of the organi-
cation. These are only part of the plans
which those interested in the welfare of
the society hope TO establish soon. The
wash room and kindling yard will be
opened this winter and other features
will be added as the society is able to do
so. There are societies like the one in
this city in every large city in the coun-
try and they are doing a great work
in helping people help themselves.

Advertise Wichita.

The regular meeting of the Chamber of
Commerce will be held a week from
Tuesday evening in the council chamber
and at that time the proposition to pro-
vide a special exhibit at the Worlds
Fair at ST. Louis of the products and
progress of Wichita and Sedgwick coun-
ty will be taken up. Many of the MEM
bers of the Chamber of Commerce have
talked about a Wichita and Sedgwick
been determined to bring the matter be-
fore the Chamber of Commerce and see
if concerted action cannot be held to make
a display which will be a credit to the
city and county and will truly show
why Wichita is a good place to live in
and invest money.
The advantages of such an exhibit as
an advertisement of this city and county
is of great Importance as display of
full line of Sedgwick county products
will show that the city is in a very
rich agricultural section and the manu-
facturers' products with some views and

The Worlds Fair display will be the
important matter to come before the
Chamber of Commerce, but a gas and
a railroad proposition will also be con-
sdered This is the first meeting the
organization has held for some months
although the board of directors have
met quite often. The regular meeting
time is the first Tuesday in each month
but as a number of the members and
some of the officers are out of the city
at present it was thought best to post
pone the meeting for one week. Every
member of the organization should be
present and fill the council chamber to
overlooking. There are nearly 400 active
members Of the Chamber of Commerce
and every one should turn out at this
meeting as the questions to be discussed
are of paramount Importance to this city.

Mr.. Bishop told the Eagle that six years
ago when he was running on the Pan
handle that there were tao farm houses
visible from the train between Kiowa
and Woodward a distance of seventy
miles. There were few sod shanties and
dugouts. but even these were rather
scarce. Now a large frame farm house
can be seen on every quarter and there
are many large barns and outbuildings
on the farms, and everything looks neat
and prosperous wonderful change
has been wrought By the law giving the
people free homes in Oklahoma
Six years ago four mail clerks were
required 10 handle tho mail on the Pan
handle. and Il was by-w0rd among the
clerks that as soon as the mail was

 Miss Margaret Finn of Winsted has returned home after visit with Miss Rose Starr of South Leonard street.
 Mrs John Mcclure and daughter, Beatrice, of Bank street, have gone to Canaan where they will spend the summer.
 This warm and dry weather is apt to make persons dry and thirsty, When persons feel thus they should at once seek a remedy for the benefit of their health. The best remedy is those temperance drinks which are sold al A. c. Walkers drug store. Here the finest soda is sold, the best of fruit juices being used. The ice cream soda is delicious.

 es Met and Organized. Right Rev Bishop Tierney was in
 Waterbury last night and met repre- sentative women of the several Cath ollie parishes at the Mulcahy Memorial and organized a society to be known as Daughters of the Queen. whose duties will be to assist the sisters who are to open a house on South Main street towards the close of the present month in helping the sick and needy members of the churches. Each par ish was represented by six delegates, nominated by the pastors and then answering the call in response to communication from the bishop. It was an enthusiastic meeting and prob- ably the most representative Catholic body that ever came together in Wa terbury, including as it did people speaking almost every language one
 hears among the residents of this
 town. Before the meeting was called to order reception was held during which Father Slocum gave the dele gates personal introduction to the
 bishop. Officers were chosen as fol- lows:
 President, Mrs John H. Kilduff of the Immaculate Conception parish.

 Second vice-president, Mrs Sarah J.
 Hayes of St Thomas's parish
 Secretary, Miss Jennie O'Neill of the Immaculate Conception parish. Treasurer, Mrs Peter Bauby of the church of Our Lady of Lourdes. The bishop gave the delegates an in- teresting talk regarding what will be expected of them as members of the Daughters of the Queen, which is a
 branch of charitable society estab- lfshed at St Louis years ago for the purpose of helping the poor and known as Daughters of the Queen of Heaven. He also talked at some length on the Sisters of the Holy Ghost who arc about to commence to labor in this field, asked the cooperation of those present and all others whose service they could enlist in support of the work those good women were about to
 undertake and hoped that in time the society would have a very large mem | bership. He wanted to see each one attend meeting to be held next Tues l day night prepared to add at least 12 names to the list and in this way start off with strong membership At the meeting to be held Tuesday va- rious committees will be appointed and other important matters attended 1 to. Four Sisters of the Holy Ghost will come here towards the close of the month and take up a permanent residence in their new home at the corner of South Main and Liberty streets.

BREAK IN WATER MAIN.
Sidewalk Torn Out Before Men Got It
 Under Control

Almost every housekeeper on Bald win street and vicinity was scurrying about this morning in search of water and for an hour or more business was rushing at the different wells. The trouble was brought on by the break ing of the main just north of Scovill' s bridge shortly before o'clock. Su- perfntendent O'Brien had a force of men on the ground early and managed to get water into the south end by means of other gates which necessi- tated the bringing into service of the Branch supply. It was a big break and tie water ragged about with such fury it tore out the walk before the men had time to get it under control. The people managed to get water wherever they could for breakfast and while nearly everybody succeeded, still a few got left and had to scurry off to work without their morning ablutions. The incident shows the value of a good we'll, even though the city water is in the house.
