FAMILY OF CHARLES \. PADEN IS
SORE DISTRESSED FOR COMFORTS
Fourth Death Within Seven Months 0CcWS-Friends Plan to
Assist at Entertainment in Stricken Peoples Behalf

-Four times within the last seven
months has the summons of death
came to the household of Mrs Charles
n. Paden. Last May the father and a
little son died on the same day from
spinal meningitis. A few Gays later
another succumbed to the same mall
ady. Yesterday morning Charles r.
Paden, an infant months old, died At
the State street orphanage, where he
was being kept by the mother. His
death was due to complications follow
ing an attack of the measles.
With all her misfortune, Mrs. Paden
is a cOurag eous woman. She struggled
to support her children after the death
of her father by nursing, and had
placed the child in the OrDhanage in
order that she might be free to go out.
She has three children remaining, the
eldest OF whom is 10 years old The
family is in destitute circumstances,
the sole support being the little that
the mother earns from nursing and ne
contributions of friends.
Charles n. Paden was a hard-WOrk

ing man, who supported his family by
day labor. He was industrious. but his
earnings were used up in the support
of the large family, so that when af-
Fiction came there was nothing LEFT
for the family's support Mr.. Paden
was i'll only few hours prior 10 lis
death from spinal meningitis.
BY benefit entertainment sufficient
funds were raised to pay some of the
bills contracted at the time of the
deaths of the three members Of the
family last May. There was no money,
however, for the support of the family
after that time. and the mother took
upon herself the task Of providing sup
port for her little children. 1t is pro-
posed that since trouble has again lis
tied the little woman that another ben
eft be arranged for and that by the
addition Of private contributions an
amount to make the remaining mem
bers of the family comfortable may be
realized.
The funeral of the infant who died
yesterday viii be held at II o'clock
this forenoon from the undertaking

When Mr.. Hammer left his place of
business he carried with him a small
bag containing some material from the

money. When his residence was
reached he stepped out somewhat care
fully, because of the fact that he was
disabled from rheumatism. When Jhe
robbers showed their guns in his face
he dropped backward. The cab do +
flew shut, but the robbers showed their
guns through the door and command
