midst. We all know that we have
such among us. A great deal Of work
can and is being done without money,
but much of the relief cannot be
done without paying for it. The mon
ey we handle must come from our
people who are more fortunate.
In October last we sent ont 662
circular letters to such whom the
committee felt could do something
for this cause. Of this number 164
have responded with various gifts to
this cause; u have sent regrets that
they were not able to do ANYTHING
This leaves 4S6 from whom we have
not heard. The amount of money
which we have received is 1862. .l6.
Out of this amount the bills of the
past four months have been paid.
Hence our treasury is low. The Sc
we're weather IS upon MS. We dare not
drop this work 1t will be such an
easy matter for each one who Is able
to bring relief to this worthy cause.
There must be many in our city TO
whom no circular was sent who will
be glad to do something. May we not
hear from you without delay
Do not lay this aside without. doing
what Your heart prompts YOU 10 do.
Send your remittance or subscription
to Mrs, Mather. 326 North Twelfth
street. Do this without delay. and
you will help to lift a great burden,
which now presses very heavily upon
the hearts of a few.

POTTER HAS HANDS FULL
ATTENDING TO WANTS OF THE
CITY'S POOR.
His Office A Good Place to Hear
Hard Luck Stories Many
Turned Down.

Township Trustee Potter is having
his hands full now answering the de-
mands of the poor Of the city III the
shape of groceries and fuel. He stat
ed yesterday that for the past month
or more he had received on an aver
age of twenty-five and thirty petit
tions a week for assistance. Many of
those applicants are ignored by Mr..
Potter as he says they are unworthy.
The trustee Office is good place
TO hear "hard luck stories and
many are pathetic to the extreme.
The cold weather has put many
'transients' on the move and each
day several of this class apply for
winters board at the County Infirm-
ary but all are turned down as the
law stipulates that none but residents
OF this county can be placed in the
Wayne County Infirmary.

FULL FORCE men WORKING
Fifty Thousand Pairs Have Been
Made This Season-Mr. Hen
ley's Prediction.

The roller skating craze which
is sweeping over the country with
much force is very profitable to the
skate manufacturing concerns and
the Henley Roller Skate Works re-
ports an almost unparalleled demand
fofr "rollers. I" Everywhere the fad
seems to be striking and the younger
generation is just as anxious to skate
as were their parents twenty-five
years ago and as Manager Bell of the
skate factory said, there are more Of
them.
Since early in the fall full force
of men has been steadily employed
in filling the orders and shipments
have been made to all parts of the
country. Orders come in calling for
ffrom fifty to two thousand pairs Of
all grades and up until the present
time the factory has been several
thousand behind its orders. This week
shipments of over a thousand pairs
were made to both California and to
Maryland, showing that the fad is
not confined to one locality but is
general everywhere. In all over $4,000
pairs have been made and shipped
since the Beginning Of the season. and
orders are OH hand for thousands
more.
N, C. Henley and Mr.. Bell both
think that in ashort time the craze
viii be equal to the one which pre-
vailed twenty-five years ago, and In
'lieations are that roller skating viii
he even more popular.

MAY HAVE NINE MEMBERS
Out of Thirteen On State Board
Beveridge Forces Still Hope
full. However.
Palladium Special Dispatch:

Indianapolis, Ind, January 12.-
Owing TO the fact that the Repnbli-
can primaries for the selection Of
delegates to the Republican district
conventions which will meet on Tues
day to select members OF the new
state central committee, we're held in
only a limited number Of counties to-
day, the returns can not be expected
to foreshadow the result with GER
tainty. But the tendency is plainly
towards James p. Goodrich, present
Chairman and if the conventions to
be held tomorrow follow the lead
which has been taken today his elec-
tion as campaign chairman is assured
and Vice President Fairbanks has
again won the control Of the commit
tee.
The contests in a majority of the
cities i'll which primaries were held
were very determined and both sides
succeeded in getting out heavy votes,
thus delaying the returns. In the first
district the influence of Senator
Hemenway and Congressman Foster
was eyerted in favor Of Philip Darby
and it is declared that he will be an
easy winner in the district conven-
tion. Darby is for Goodrich III the
second district Joseph Baar, another
Goodrich man carrier the primaries
as far as held today, and is regarded
as an easy winner
At Elettsville, the primary was
marked by great disorder and free
for all fight in which Thomas Ridge
was struck over the head with chair
by IL. II. Grant and severely injured.
The convention nearly broke up as a
result of the fight. The Third dis
trict will probably elect Joseph
Throop, who is for Goodrich, it be-
ing conceded apparently that the OPP
position to him will make but little
showing in the convention. Shideler
who is the Beveridge candidate will
probably have the support Of the
committeemen To be elected in the
Fifth, Tenth and Eleventh districts
with the Twelfth and Thirteenth in
doubt while Goodrich will control
the Sixth and Eighth.
In this district, where the Bever-
ldge and Fairbank men have been
making desperate fight to elect del
egates favorable to the candidates
for chairman. Both factions are
claiming the victory tonight but it
seems from the returns now in that
Ensley, who represents Bevefidge is
decidedly in the lead. The county
precincts, however, are still to hear
from and William Bosom the Fair
banks man does not concede his de-
feat. The best Judgment at this hour
with many counties not fully report
ed and some notreported at all, is
that Goodrich will have eight mem
bers of the committee If not nine.

TREASURY is GETTING Low
And Answers to Circular Issued For
Help Have Been Slow In
Coming In.

During the bad weather Of the past
few days the resources of the Associ-
ated Charities have been drawn upon
heavily and the committee has found
it necessary to issue statement to
the public in the hope Of getting
further help for the destitute of
Richmond. The appeal sent forth
yesterday follows:
This Association is not stock COM
pany. Tt is not money-making
concern. 1t is simply a number of
very busy men and women in our
city, willing, besides the other bur-
dens which they bear, to take upon
themselves this burden also, to be as
sociated together for the comfort and
relief of the poor and needy i'll our

RULES ARE NOW STRINGENT
When Freight Riders Come to City
It is Generally to Take Lodg-
ment In Jail.

The old time custom for the "ho-
boes' to journey from one end OF
the country to the other on freight
trains and the trucks OF passenger
ears is about done away with and
since the stringent laws have been in
force few transient "boes" have
been seen in this city. j. c. Trump,
who is captain of the police of the
Richmond division of the Pennsylva-
MIA Lines. says that the gents of
leisure give that road wide berth.
When tramp is caught on a Penn
sylvania freight train, 'bumming' a
ride he is conveyed to the nearest
lookup and usually gets the limit. In
stead of being kicked off by the train
men as in the good old days of free
rides and square country meals the
tramps find themselves up against
about ninety days of hard labor and
the idea is discouraging to the ma
iority Of them. .... - a.e
Richmond has not been the stop
ping place of tramps for years and
rarely are any suspicious characters
to be found loafing around. Much of
this is due to the railroad companies.
who provide detectives to watch
their trains and when the hobo comes
into Richmond he usually comes in
wearing a pair of handouts.
