 lady called up the Associated Charities yesterday morning and said that she was very sorry that the fund had been closed as she had a sum of money which had been collected. She was informed that the fund had been reopened and it was only a short time until there was sum of five dollars received from her.
 Another added reason for the con- tinuance of the fund was the receipt yesterday of a letter from a gentle man, who sent in fund of fifteen dollars despite the fact that the fund had apparently been closed.
 The letter which was sent is as follows:
 Associated Charities.
 '"Enclosed please find check for fifteen dollars to be added to he Grace Illiff fund.
 I was sorry to note in Sundays Graphic that the collection would be closed today. The good people are just beginning to get interested and as this is a good cause, would sug- gest that you keep the subscription open indefinitely so that large sum may be raised, and after paying The expenses of the Chicago trip, the balance can be paid into the hands of some reliable person and be invested for her future maintainance.'
 "Very respectfully,
 "D. l.. FRANKLIN"
 While the story to the effect that the fund had been closed had deferred many possibly from adding to the contribution it is thought now that the fund has been reopened that there will be a large number who will add to it.
 According to the Associated Chari- ties it may be necessary to have a nurse go to Chicago with her and re- turned here to make the trip again to bring her back to this city. In that event, 1t will involve some ex- pense on that score. Just how long the little girl will have to remain in Chicago is of course moot question, as there has been no means of finding out how long it will require the specialist to remove the cause of her affliction.
 Despite the fact that the fund had been to all intents closed, there were some subscriptions T received yester- day and the Associated Charities re- ceived during the day sum of ap- proximately $20.0O.
 Those in charge of the work have been loud in their praise of the man. ner in which this city met the call for help and predict that there will be every opportunity offered the little child to completely regain her health
