Tell of the Needs.


The facts as to the dispensary's
financial straits were brought out
Tuesday afternoon at an open meet
ing held in the Chamber of Commerce
rooms in the J. NJ. s. building With
the express purpose Of putting before
the public that condition and enlist
ing aid, Miss Olive Bailey. the dis
pensary nurse, gave a splendid report
of the work of the Institution the past
summer. DR.. Charles T. Hansel,
medical adviser, set forth the prime
objects and accomplishments of the
diSpenSary and compared them with
those of Indianapolis and Kansas
City. Harry Engman and George
Robertson Of the finance committee
presented the financial status OF the
organization and made plans for the
support of the public. The meeting
was presided over by Mrs. +. O. Ket-
tring. president Of the association, and
attended by some 20 men and women.
For five years the dispensary has
been doing its great work in South
Bend, living as Mr.. Engman aptly
expressed il, from hand 10 mouth. 3"
The first three years it was kept open
only in summer. Last year it kept
open DOth summer ana winter and
the running expenses for the l.
months was $4,000. This year, un-
less aid is forthcoming Immediately,
it must go out of existence.
Assistance is Needed.
THE time has passed" said Mr..
Engman, when two or three men
and half a dozen women can stand
alone back of the dispensary. IT has
grown beyond US. In my opinion IL
is one Of the Worthiest charities of
the day, because it is the charity
which makes other charities unneces-
sary. The majorities Of our chari-
table organizations, worthy as they all
are, are devoted 10 correcting mis-
takes, 10 aiding the man who some
time in his life has had his chance.
The babies have had no chance and
il Is the object OF the Children's Dis
pensary TO give them that chance
10 start them right in the world.
OF the value Of the work done in
South Bend, DR.. Hansels comparisons
were eloquent IN indianapolis in
1910 in four such stations only 1876
children were cared for. The largest
number treated in any one OF the
four was 81. The South Bend station
cared for III with a mortality of rate
less than one percent as compared
with Il percent for Indianapolis. In
Kansas City III babies We're cared
for with a death rate Of II percent

The order was carried out at once.
The officer telling the story did
not know how many men were eX-

thought there were SO or 40 of them.
The men had been cut off from
the main body and were taken after
a desperate fight. So far as known
only two federal officers captured
since the lighting began have been
spared. The father of one Of these
was a major in the rebel army and
upon the appeal Of the latter TO Villa

Another pleaded that he had been

Many rebel soldiers are Tuesday
wearing fedcrals uniforms and over
coats taken from prisoners who have
been executed on the field.
Prisoners are forced TO strip before
being shot in order that the clothing

Suffragette's Victim
Sticks in Window 70
Minutes Before Freed
Labor Convention Locked in As
sembly Hall by Militant
Women at Manchester.

Special Gable to The Atlanta Georgian.
MANCHESTER, ENGLAND. March
24.-While the independent labor party
was holding its convention here today,
a number of suffragettes stole up and
placed padlocks upon the doors of the
hall. When the delegates attempted to
leave, they found the doors locked on
the outside. One enraged delegate
climbed out on the roof and paid his
compliments to the suffragette move
ment in picturesque language. Anoth-
er delegate smashed a window and tried
to crawl through, but he got stuck in
the aperture and hung head downward
for nearly 30 minutes, meanwhile
screaming and kicking violently.
The suffragettes had placed chains
across the doors. and hammers and
chisels had to be brought into play
before the doors could be opened.
Meanwhile the hungry delegates were
clamoring in the assembly room. One
man, who professed a sympathy for
the feminist movement. was set upon
by his companions and roundly beaten.
AS soon as they were released from the
assembly room, they selected the big
gest and stoutest delegates to act as
guards about the building during the
balance of the session.
