the judiciary committee OF the house
of assembly and brought up for a

Runyon was formerly one of the ad-
vocates of the bill, but at present

IMPOSTOR SOLICITS FUNDS =
IN NAME OF DAY NURSERY

Merchants are warned to be on
their guard when appeals are made
for contributions to the Day Nursery.
There is an impostor at work in this
city who has worked the same trick
before to deceive the business men in
getting donations. A woman wear
ing badge bearing the words DAY
Nursery goes into store and asks
If the merchant desires to make
contribution. Seeing the badge with
the words Day Nursery" the mer
chant naturally thinks the woman is
soliciting for that most worthy char
ity and she usually gets something.
This woman is fakir and should
be exposed. The women who solicit
for the day nursery in this city do not
wear badges. Besides, the real so
licitors are usually women who are
we'll known to the business men and
there ought to be no mistake made.
The activities of the impostor who
has solicited in the name of the day
nursery has caused the ladies inter-
ested in the local institution no little
embarrassment. Just at present the
day nursery is in need of funds. A
benefit has been arranged and the
ldQleS are SoIlcitlus duVus tne ueI-
chants for donations to assist in
meeting the expenses of the affair.
This is a most worthy appeal and
should meet with hearty support, but
before making a contribution 1t
should be made certain that the
money is given to the right party.
The ladies interested IN the day nur-
sery are always willing to answer
questions and will gladly tell about
the work at the institution. If the
solicitor is not personally known, do
not hesitate to make some inquiries.
If your suspicion is aroused notify
the authorities at once.

the Indignation of the Dutch people, as

cargo and that the news of the sinking
OF the steamer came Immediately on
top of an announcement that four
Dutch trawlers had been seized by the
Germans and taken to Cuxhaven ap-
parently heightened the Indignation of
