When the workers in the campaign
left their seats in the diningroom Of the
Hotel DUPONT at noon yesterday there
remained almost S3S 900 to be sub

that every stone was turned Yesterday
afternoon by the workers. yet when
they assembled in the evening, only
Sl5,90229 had been collected.

to be gotten, and again the workers
sailed forth TO meet at, 1890 o'clock.

tribution he had previously made. he
would give another $500 If some one

announcement was greeted with a
burst of applause, and Stirling II.

| pusey and Jones Company, quickly
covered the sum. There were no
more $500 subscriptions. and Mr.
satterthwait started the ball rolling
again by saving he would give an ad.
