A VISIT TO POOR
WITH MRS. DEUTER
Salvation Army Woman Asks
"Prosperity' to eSe How
Poverty Is Living.

An invitation to become acquainted
with the destitute conditions of sew
eral families in the city has been is
sued by Mrs. Deuter, wife of Captain
Deuter. who is in charge of the local
post Of the Salvation Army. She
would like to escort party over the
city before the holidays and. while she
does not promise that any conditions
as-sbad as In some of the big cities
will be found. yet she infers that each
member of the party will be greatly
surprised.
Families, including seven. eight and
nine children, whose father only earn
between 50 and $12 week, are, from
necessity i'll clad and chartered in
small apartments. When the rainy
day comes in these homes by the
father losing his position or becom-
ing i'll, then is when the gray wolf
snarls at the door. For example there
is now in the city home in which
there are, besides the father and
mother, nine children, one very young,
all living in two small rooms. and
the family is so poor that it has but
two beds, the sleeping places for
those who are unfortunate enough to
be the last to bed being on the floor.
Captain Deuter, for several days
has been overseeing the cauldron
which he has suspended from tripod
at the corner of Eighth and Main
streets. The collections have been
large and it is thought $3.50 will be
realized altogether. In 1909 the col
lections were about $210. He and his
wife are preparing for the Christmas
distribution of food, fuel and cloth
ing among the poor. The children In
these families will be given toys.

A PROTEST IS MADE
BY Local Branch Of Print
erS' Union.

The Richmond typographical union
has formulated the following protest:
Believing in justice and equality.
we. the members OF Richmond Typo
graphical Union No. 301. vigorously
protest against a continuance Of the
government furnishing printed en-.
velopes free to individuals. and urge
our representative in congress to
work and vote for the bill now before
them, putting an end to such unfair
and unbusiness like methods. With
far more reason, the government could
also supply free farming implements.
school books, shoes, clothing and
other necessities. for the benefit
would thus go to the poor. while in
the use OF printed envelopes the ad-
vantage OF getting them printed and
delivered without cost goes to large
corporations, well able to pay Tor sup
plies to carry on their private bust
ness. Because an injustice has been
practiced is no reason why 1t should
continue. and we respectfully request
that this outrage shall be stopped.

SHOP LIFTING IS
WORRYING ! [: POLICE
Some Prominent Women Are
Said to Have Been Guilty
of the Offense Here.

Some women of high social stand.
Ing in Richmond are known by the
police department to be guilty of
shoplifting in local stores. Merchants
know who these persons are and on a
number of occasions these women
have, been approached by clerks in
various business houses and articles
which they have taken have been re-
covered. .< ~. 81
Merchants hesitate to prosecute
these women but it is said that in
the future prosecutions will follow.
Some stores have employed private
detectives to guard their stock. so
great has been the loss from Christ
mas shoplifting.
There has been a suggestion that
the police employ few plain clothes
merchant patrolmen whose duty it
will be to watch the stores of the city.
Superintendent Gormon declared this
morning that no mercy would be
shown any one arrested for shoplift-
ing.
mo matter II they do have wealthy
husbands or fathers to pay for the
things these women steal" said the
chief. they are going to be severely
dealt with. 1t Is ridiculous thing for
the police to be called upon to pre-
vent society women from robbing
Christmas display counters. It is the
worst thing we've ever had to con-
tend with
For several years this trouble has
been brought to the attention of the
police department about holiday time
but never before has it reached such
serious proportions as the present
season. Several stores have reported
losses aggregating more than SIS. As
soon as an example has been made Of
some woman the police think the shop
lifting will cease.
