Of the rules committee providing for

pend the rules so that a majority
might change or suspend the rules at

termined that it was a poor rule that
wouldn't work both ways and as it
had been provided that a majority
should rule in the matter of prevent
ing the smothering of bills. it ought
to take the same vote to do any
changing that might be regarded as
necessary in the rules under which
the House IS working.
There was considerable indigna-
ton among the Terrell Democrats
but little was said about IL by them.
Schoberth was well taken care of by

Miss PeddicOrd, the Secretary cf

that she has had MORE calls in the
past few days for assistance. than at
any time since the organization of

There have been much sickness,

been one large item, but the greatest
need of most of the poor, has been
for provisions and coal.
The people of this community do
not fully realize the Importance or
the vastness of the work of our As

are a few who are deeply interested
in the work. and through their efforts
this organization is maintained, there
are many who know nothing of the

All of us who are able, should take a
hand in this most excellent work.
The Secretary states that she can
dispose of all of the old clothing,
shoes, hats, and such like that will
be sent to the room in the Fraternity
Building, but that while these arti-
cies are essential and necessary.
still it requires money to buy coal,
groceries. medicine and pay for car

New York. Jan. 1l.-More than
$50,OOO.0OO in stock and bonds was
recovered from one of the smaller
vaults in the burned Equitable Life
Assurance Society building late

week. perhaps longer before the
great vaults of the society and the
Mercantile Safe Deposit Company
have given up their half billion or
more in securities.
Further examination of the gaunt,
iee-shrouded building, swept ON
Tuesday by fire, showed the vaults
are still intact. In the opinion of
those who made the inspection, an
opinion reinforced by the revelation
Wednesday that the smaller vaults
had kept their treasure safe, their
contents will suffer little. if any, but
buried as they are under hundreds Of
tons of ice and debris, it NAV be a
matter of weeks before it will be adj
visable to open them.
Meanwhile securities. variOpsly es-
timated in value from half a billion
to billion and half dollars, can
