Associated Charities Insists
That It Have $1,000
Working Fund.
HELD Meeting TUESDAY
ALREADY THERE IS SUFFERING
AMONG THE POOR REPORTED
AND WINTER WILL INCREASE
THE DISTRESS.

Unless $4,000 is raised by the finan-
cial committee of the board of asso-
ciated charities. that worthy organ
ization will disband as it was decided
yesterday at a meeting of the board
that it would be useless to conduct
the work until that sum had been Sc
cured for the purpose. The financial
committee consists of Benjamin John
son, Samuel Gaar. George Knollen-
berg and Walter Doan. assisted by
Timothy Nicholson and Rev. Parker.
The committee has been untiring in
its efforts to secure the necessary
amount but thus far only about 81 1000
in contributions has been secured.
There is considerable suffering
among the poor and needy Of the city
at present. The associated Charities
receive daily appeals for aid but can
not begin the charitable work for the
winter until $4,000 has been raised.
A particularly pitiful case is that of
a man by the name of Elmer Smith
who resides in a tent at the extreme
end Of South Fifth street. The man il
seriously i'll and is confined to his bed
and suffering from lack of proper food
and nourishment His wife is forced
to work in the corn field to provide
for her husband and their two small
children who are sadly In need of
clothing.

Of the city at this critical time. which

GOING TO ST. LOUIS
TO DELIVER LECTURE
Tells Palladium Reporter That
When He Reached Top Of
World Experienced the
Tired Feeling.

The real. original DR. Frederick A.
Cook, not merely 4 counterpart of the
noted man. whose name has been on
the lips of every man. woman and
child in this great and. practically in
every other portion of the world, for
the past month-the man who braved
the terrors of the frozen North, and
who was the first living man to wrap
the stars and stripes around the much
sought North Pole-passed through
Richmond at $40 O'Clock this morning
on train No. 81 enroute from New
York to St. Louis.
Only a few persons Of the nero
handful at the Pennsylvania depot
were aware Of the fact that the fam
GUS discove-er was on the train with
his wife and family. but the news
soon spread like wild fire and II was
with difficulty that the clamorinx
crowd was kept back until after the
train pulled out of the station.
Picture of Health.
DR.. Cook appeared the picture Of
health. He is greatly tanned and
bronzed from the rough exposure and
hardships endured In his long, sue
cessful journey of $4,000 miles and II
probably the happiest man alive. In
an interview with Palladium report
er. Dr.. Cook was literally bubblinx
over with enthusiasm. When asked
what his feelings were when ho fin
ally realized that he had been success
ful In his mission and planted Old
Glory in the field of ice at the top
of the world. DR.. Cook smiled and
said that he was really too tired at
the time to remember just what kind
of sensation he experienced. my
heart grew warm when I saw the flag
fly in the wind. NV spirits were high
and I shouted for Joy. while the aston

CROWDS A SAMPLE
Of HUNDREDS TO
COME TOMORROW
Besides the Exhibits and the
Agricultural Parade, VAR
ious Stores Were Magnets

HOLIDAY SPIRIT WAS
GENERALLY PREVALENT
At Noon Hour, Hungry Visitors
Made Wild Dash on Res
taurants and Hotels, Almost
"Swamping" Them.
Richmond is thronged with happy

Richmond is thronged with happy
thousands today.
These visitors have been drawn to
the Festival City from all sections OF
eastern Indiana and western Ohio.
The advance guard began to arrive
yesterday afternoon. However the real
invasion started this morning, bright
and early. Trains and interurban cars
from ever direction. arrived in the
city. loaded to the guards" In ever
section Of the city the welcomed in
vaders held forth. Exhibits were in
spected BY thousands and the princi-
pal streets were congested.
To give N idea Of the great crowd
that swarmed into the city, when the
hour for the airship ascension arrived
the South HI street grounds were pack
ed by thousands and at the same time
Main street and North E street were
so congested that 1t was difficult for
one to make his way through the
crowds.
Stores Are Attractive. :,
To hundreds Of the visitors the
stores in the various parts of the city,
especially on Main street and In the
north end. were magnets. And, be It
said in favor of these enterprising
SO attractively decorated and the
stocks they had to offer SO desirable
and reasonable in price. that it took
a woman with great will power to
resist their bandishments.
The crowd that swarmed about the
city today is just q faint hint OF the
thousands that will flock into the city
Thursday and Friday. The impression
has gone forth among the residents of
the surrounding country that these
two days will be the big ones" of
the Festival and they have made all
arrangements to help their Richmond
neighbors celebrate this carnival of
fall on those dates.
An Interesting Sight.
II was an interesting sight. to pa
sade through the business districts of
the city at noon today. Barkers In
raucous voices sang their wares; !;
good natured hundreds pushed and
showed, to the time Of blood-tingling
band music. to get into the various
restaurants and hotels for their meals.
In every eating place standing room.
even. was at a premium. Proprietors
of restaurants had made every ar
rangement to handle the big crowds,
but despite these arrank> vents they
we're virtually swept off their feet -
One thing that pleased the Rich
mond people was the way people from
the surrounding small towns and coun-
try districts Informed visitors from
more distant points that this was
''their fall festival"
They spoke truthfully, for Rich
monds neighbors have done almost
az much to make the celebration q
success as have the residents of this
city.
Tonight the entire police force and
the members of the local camp, Unit
ed Spanish War Veterans, will be on
duty to protect the crowds during the
monster automobile parade. This ev-
ent will be one of the most attractive
and spectacular of the entire festival.
It is estimated that it will be seen by
forty thousand people.

GOVERNMENT CLAIM
Mr.. Kelsey Does Not BelieUe IT
Hill effect Seaside Park.

Clifford s. KELSEY. treasurer Of the Ne
ponsit Realty Company and vice-president
Of The Realty Associates said yesterday
that no great part of the tract Of land on
which the city Is planning 20 build sea-
side park at Rockavay Beach will be
claimed by the United States government.
'As I understand it, said Mr.. Kelsey.
the governments claim is not resting upon
any grant from the state In 1903. but simply
on the ground that IL is an occupant there
I'm the form Of the station OF the United
States Lifessving Service"
The actual plot OF land upon which III.
lifessving station stands together with a
right Of way from there 10 the beach, a
stretch OF about one thousand 70 twelve
Hundred feet. would probably cover the
governments only claim. he thought. al
though he admitted that the policy held by
the Neponsit Realty Company from the
Title Guarantee and Trust Company guar
snteed the title. with the provision. "ex-
oepting property if any. owned by the
United States government
IF there had been snv cesson by the
stat 20 the federal government. and II that
cession had carried riparian rights. as has
been intimated." said Mr.. Kelsey, ''ths title
company would not have been so indefinite
about the matter"
The government he went on. wouldn't
take any mans land without compensation,
and the oniy thing II could possibly want
in that territory would DC plot for life
saving station and a right Of way to the
beach.
ION that point" said Mr.. Kelsey, 'the
government would not even necessarily
have 20 have a road. All that would be
necessary would he a space unobstructed
by buildings between the station and the
beach"
The Board Of Estimate will reconsider
the purchase Of the RockaVay tract at its
meeting on Friday.
