BIG RAFT OF PILES ARRIVES.
Tug Toby Brings 315 s..icks for
Use Here.

For use in the false work under the
Pennsylvania Avenue bridge across
Rock creek and for the Eastern
branch improvements. the tug Captain
Toby came into port yesterday towing
a long raft of pine piling consigned to
L. A. Clarke & Son. There were 81
sticks in the raft and 211 of them were
delivered at Georgetown and 100 in
the Eastern branch for the United
States Army engineers.
Four long piles were taken to the
11th street wharf and will be used
there in making tests to determine
how deep down the piles for the new
wharves will have to be driven in
order to reach hard bottom.
Before the construction of the wharf
was given out a local firm of bidders
used a fifty-f1ve- foot pile in test, and
this was driven as far as it would go
without taking up. 1t is thought that
unusually long piles will have to be
used in the new municipal wharves in
order to find firm foundation.

ASKS ONE CENT FOR EACH
LETTER IN YOUR NAME
Managers of Institute for Blind Ap-
peal for Funds to Keep Concern
Running for Year.

Is your name worth one cent for each
letter in 1t?
If it is, just send enough to cover
your name. one cent per letter. to the
Columbia Polytechnic Institute for the
Blind. 1905 Fl street northwest, to keep
this institution running for the next
year. But if you are afraid the coins
will be lost, just send postage stamps.
It's just the same.
An appeal is being sent by the insti-
tute to raise from $500 to $4,000 to
cover the overhead expenses of the in
stitute. Accompanying the appeal is a
little envelope which says:
please inclose one cent for each let
ter in your name
Congress was appealed to last year
to give the institute $4,000 with which
to purchase machinery for manufacture
ing the articles now made by hand at
the institute, but it was knocked out
in conference. The provision for the
machinery would have put the institu-
ton on paying basis and the present
appeal would not now be necessary, it
is declared. AS it is. the employees of
the institution. blind persons, will have
to continue their work of making
brooms. Gaming chairs, etc, by hand.
Though we have made long. Wig
orous effort to secure from Congress,
during this session. an appropriation
of which we stand in great need" says
the appeal, I'VE have failed utterly to
obtain it.
The authorities Of our city, and men
in public life. both here and elsewhere,
have warmly testified to the meri-
torious character of this institution.
yet we are denied aid from that source
from which such aid could come.
I'VE do not want to suspend work
here. for this would deprive at least
eight sightless men and women of a
regular income upon which they have
come to depend and which has been
theirs for two years now, with no in
terruption."
