Wednesday, DIST December, 1910.

The thanks of our townsfolk are due to
Captain Christensen of II NJ. s. Ingolf for
granting permission for the ships band to
play on the Wharf on Saturday evening, and
to bandma8ter Koefoad and his able must
clans for a great musical treat. The seve-
raj pieces of a we'll selected programme we're
rendered With a precision Of time and tone
and o completeness of expression which were
very greatly appreciated by a large audience.
q lines of rain was measured in Christian
sted on Monday morning.
The 5. s. Gujaqo for New York is duo at
Froderiksted at 6 o'clock tomorrow morn
ing and will leave at 7 q. m. The mail by
her will be closed in Chri8tiansted's Post
Office ut 4 o'clock this afternoon.
Last weeks fall of rain was rather wide
spread. St. Thomas had a good fan, about
which the st. Thomas Bulletin Of Friday
last has the following:
"After about "A hours of more or less con
tinuous rain the weather has cleared up
again. 1t has given the town a good wash
out, and incidentally made a worse mess of
the refuse from the gasworks furnaces lately
thrown upon some of the streets by way of
repairs"
West Enc had almost daily showers,
amounting down to yesterday morning to
ia lines, namely Wednesday SO lines,
Thursday 81, Saturday %, and Sunday 20.
We are glad to learn that many of the es-
tates shared at least equally well in that
welcome fall.

SAMPLE OF THE
CHARITY'S WORK
Only One Case Of the Many
Which the Good Wo-
men Relieve.

Tell you something Of the work we
are doing? If I were to talk "a hours
1 could not tell you OF the many prob
lens which confront us. From early
morning until evening a steady stream
of distress passes into our office. At
the county dispensary sad mothers and
sick children come to the baby clinic
to be comforted and healed. We are
busy every moment OF. the day"
This was the reply of Miss H. Grace
Franklin when asked something about
the work of the Charity association, of
which she is supervisor.
1t was a cold day, and out of the
driZzling rain came a mother carrying
a baby in her arms. The father follow
ed, carrying a seven year old boy. Both
children were sick and almost naked
and starving. The mother was scantily
clad and the father tired and hungry.
They were picture of restitution and
despair. They were admitted to the
consultation room and examined by DR..
Kluttz. He recognized in the woman
the mother of a child which had died
over a year ago of tubercular peritO-
nitis.
Jesus, the seven year old boy, was i'll
from typhoid fever and the baby show
ed signs of the fatal disease, which had
caused the death of the other child
The starved mother, the babies and the
father all appeared to have lost the
last spark of life. He seemed mere
machine. He had had no work for
three months, there was no food for the
children and they were crying with
the cold. There is one other child, she
is going to school seeking an education
in spite of the fact that she is often
breakfastless. Unless prompt action
was taken, there would be another fu-
neral and perhaps another case of tu-
berculesis in FL PaSo. The little fellow
IA months old was wearing a pair OF
worn out trousers belonging TO his
seven year old brother,
Now they are being cared for and
Jesus is improving He now sleeps in
a clean bed, clothed in a night gown,
has broth and milk to drink and his lit
tie brother is again dressed as a baby
and is being fed baby food. And the
charity is helping the man seek work.
This is the work which the charity
ball helps to keep up.

comedy company of over 80 people ar
rived in the city last night after a
long railroad jump from Oklahoma

contract Mr.. Teal went to all the east
ern cities and has brought back with
him line of productions that will be
staged here during his engagement.
He has producing for him this season,
A. y. linn, acknowledged to be. the
foremost popular priced musical COM
edy producer in the business. Miss
Frances Grey, who stages all the
dances. was ballet mistress at the New
York Casino for the past two seasons.
Teal, unlike most musical comedy
stars, does not rely on his own versa
tiiity to carry his productions through,
but has surrounded himself with a cast
of exceptional strength. The princf-
pals are as follows: Raymond Teal,
Geo. A. Burton VIII H. Cross, o. ].
Post, Ted Rose. Harry Castelberry,
Mable Darragh. Oracle Wolf, Corrine
Carkeek, Virginia Glenn Elliss and
Miss Topsy Gates. The chorus with

SAN BERNARDINO, Oct. 19.-Over-
come by heat and thirst, c. b. oliver,
a wealthy eastern mining man, and a
companion, T. Roberts, narrowly es-
capped death on the Mojave desert near
Needles, and owe their lives only to
the fact that the teamster they had
employed to drive them to mining
property near Dandy became worried
over their long absence, and realizing
that they were inexperienced in the
dangers of the desert, started out in
search for them.
He found Oliver struggling toward
camp, his canteen empty, and so ex-
hausted that he could not walk. The
mine owner was dragging his fever
fired form over the sands toward camp
in an effort to reach help and save
Roberts, who had fallen unconcon-
scious oliver had dragged his dying
companion to the rude shelter of a
clump of sage brush and left him tc
continue his fight for life in an effort
to secure help.
The teamster succeeded in getting
both men into camp.

PASADENA, Oct. 20.-Revel English
and G. e. Post will be the competing
charioteers at the New Years day
races at Tournament park, according
to reports last evening, which were
verified from several sources. 1t is
known that English has a string OF
horses from his ranch undergoing

has expressed the intention of defend
ing his title as winner of the races last

made in the Wasnington's birthday

other plans. The subcommittee is
composed of Herman r. Hertel, George
