loss just after he got on the train and
at once made report of the matter
to Patrolman Jones. He could not fur
nish a description OF tho thief. but
said no recalled being jostled in the
crowd as he stepped into the Pullman
That he was tho victim OF a pick

SHELTER|NG ARMS
GETS ABOUT $1,000
Two Performances of angels in
Art" Net Large Sum for
, Charity Hospital.

Careful estimates By those in charge
place the net proceeds of the two per
formances of Angels in Art" given
at the Academy of Music on Tuesday
and last night for the benefit OF the
Sheltering Arms Free Hospital, at
something more than $1,000, remark
ably large percentage OF the gross re-
ccipts.
1t is explained by the workers for
this charity who managed the financial
end of the entertainments that this un-
usual proposition of the receipts to be
devoted to the hospital is due to the
unselfishness OF Mrs. Henry Wood and
the Baroness Won Krethschman, who
were responsible for the artistic beauty
of the performances.
These German women of gentle birth
now reside in Baltimore. where they
have become deeply Interested in tho
Baltimore Free kindergarten and Day
Nursery. In order TO help that en-
terprise. they undertake the manage
ment OF performances of Angels in
Art" for local charities In various
cities. receiving for their own ser
vices not ono penny. but stipulatine
that from the gross receipts $3.50 shall
be paid to the Baltimore institution.
a very small percentage is also do
Quoted for tho payment Of a royalty
to tho owners of the production
Thus tho Sheltering Arms will rcce.ye
for its lofty purposes $1,000, not all
of which comes from Richmond peo-
nile.

YOUNG MEN shown
THEIR CIVIC DUTY
City-Wide Campaign to Increase
Number of Voters Started
Last Night by Committee.

Banded together in a spirit OF pa
triotic endeavor. more than 200 serious
minded young Richmonds last night
began campaign which has as its
goal the civic welfare of the communi-
ty. For three days they will be en-
gagged In mighty effort to increase
the voting population of tho city by
II personal appeal TO every man who
has tho necessary qualifications OF a
voter. but who has neglected the pre-
liminary steps to exercise the right of
suffrage.
This movement was brought about
by the organization Of the Young
Mems Registration Committee. It was
determined by the members of the COM
mittee that the best method OF reach
Ing the delinquent voters was to go
out after them and by personal per-
suasion arouse in them a sense OF civic
patriotism.
Divided City Into Sections.
The entire residential section OF the
city had to be covered. and for prac-
teal purposes II was divided into
twenty-five blocks. with the precinct
boundaries as the point OF separation
y captain was appointed to a precinct
and ten volunteers were assigned to
assist each. Under the command OF
the captain the man will call upon
d CeFlaih NUMBER OF men cach night.
His record will show those who are
missed, and on the last night they
will be Cleaned up"
The movement Is strictly non-parti-
san, and there will be no campaigning
for particular candidates. The solo
object OF the committee is to get the
young men to 'pay up" Those who arc
not down on the poll books are urged
to Nremain at home tonight, or to-
morrow night 10 receive tho commit
tee. The visiting hours are from Gao
10 $3.50 T. NJ.
The 225 members OF tho committee
who went to work last night called on
approximately 5000 men, 1000 of whom
promised to pay their poll taxes be-
fore May 3. They expect to reach
the same number tonight
