Friends Property.

[ An organization meeting of the mem
bers of the auxiliary society of the
Richmond Guest House was held in
the Commercial club rooms last even
ing and plans were instituted showing
that in all probability a home will be
established in this city for working
girls.
According TO the members of the
society who spoke last night, the pro-
position lies with the public spirited
citizens of this community who must
promote the enterprises to raise $780,
900 for the proposition. This is the es-
timated cost of proposed grounds, bull
dings and equipment.
The fact that large number of per-
sons attended the first meeting of the
society was very encouraging to the
persons who are working for the prop
osition and it is expected that by their
united efforts home where the work
ing girls of Richmond will be afforded
the necessities and comforts of life
will be maintained.
n Option is Held.
An option is now held on the proper
church between North A and streets
and between Eleventh and Twelfth
streets which was used by the Rich
mond Business college. The present
building probably would be used by
the society until funds are raised to
erect a more modern structure.

meeting last night. Other officers elect
ed are, Miss Margaret Starr, vice-pres-
