This will be a hard winter for the poor of R me. Many a bread winner 18 idle because of lack of work, and many a family heretofore in moderately < om fortable circumstances will suffer for the barest necessities of life. Already the relief funds of the city and county are running short, and private charity must be appealed to, or untold suffering will ensue. *•* There are quite a number of kind hearted ladies in the city who take a deep interest in relieving the necessities of the poor. Several have accidently come under my observation, and it renewed my faith in humanity to see these gentle women suffer inconvenience and even embarrassment in tueir efforts to alleviate distress and want among the Door and destitute. *** While a few instances come undei ob servation, the great maj >rity go on their blessed mission of relief unheralded and unknown. Many homes will be glad dened during the coming winter by these gentle ministers of mercy, but it will re quire united and systematic effort to keep thegiu t tpentre of hunger from the humble cabins of the poor. •»* The farewell banquet to Mr. A. W. Walton by the Masons of Rome promires to be a brilliant affeir. Mr. Walton has done much for Masonry in this section and it must be pleasant to him to know that his services are appreciated. How much better it is to honor men while they are living than to pass fulsome res * elutions about them after they are dead. What a wonderful institution is Mason ry 1 Having its birth in the remote daw n of antiquity, it exists today in every part of the world, among all nations and is a mighty power for good wherever its in fluence is felt.

The Search of a Woman at the Jail Result ed in a Find. | Amanda Craig is one of the women who assisted the Bell boys in their Thursday night’s hilarity, and who was sent to jail Friday. The Bells charged her and the other women with relieving them of about S7O. Yestetday Deputy Sheriff McConnell, Jailer Copeland, policeman J. A. Collier and others proceeded t make a thorough search on the persons of those in jail. In the hem of the skirt of the Craig woman was found ass bill. The search wa con tinued in a close and systematic manner and in spite of protests another bill—this time slo—was found. The woman had done her best to conceal it, and it is a wonder it was found. No more was found on any of those charged.

A Few Facts in Regard to Sanitary Plumb ing. Are you aware of the fact that thous ands of people die every year from being poisoned by sewer gas? The public is not aware of the fact that the most essential feature about a build ing is the plumbing work, and if it is not properly put in and properly trapped and ventilated it will cause more stctoutss and deaths than any bing else. Le ky joints in water pipes may cause damage to decorated ceilings, wall hang ings, floor coverings in a dwelling house and in warehouses, stores and cffioe buildings, may injure the goods stored i herein, or destroy important documen s. Leaky joints in the gas pipe system may destioy plant hf -, or injure book bind ings aud pic ure frames; they may also cause id health aud suffering an . some times death by asphyxiation; at other tun ;s dangerous gas explosions, and destructive fires may result. Leaky j lints iu the soil, drain, waste and vent pipe system, aside from the annoyance of toul odois, are tbefreq ient causs, by the introduction of disease germs, of sickness aud death in many a household. The importance of employing only the best skilled labor for such work cannot be overestimated. As regards the best way of doing new plumbing work, whether by day’s labor oj a fixed per centage basis, or by contract work, for a a ipulated sum, much may be said on both sides of the question. If an owner chooses for the work a contractor of good standing and unblemished reputation, who is personally known to him, and if this contractor has iu his employ a relia ble foreman and competent mechanics, a good job may be secured at a fair and not excessive price if crrried out by day’s work. An equally good j b may, however, be obtained iu mmy cases if the work is given out by contract, provided the owner has beforehand settled all questions of fixtures and arrangement, aud also pio vtded the woik is done in accordance with carefully drawn plans and specifications under the superintendence of some qualified disinterested expert of reputa tion, and prov.ded, finally, a few judi ciously selt cted and reliable firms of equal standing are invited to estimate on the work. Where the contractor is not known to the owner or architect ii. is always better to have the work done by contract for a fixed sum agreed upon. Where bids for work are publicly ad vertised it is generall unsafe to give the contract to the lowest bidder. W. B Campbell. McELREE’S WINE OF CARDUI for Weak Nerves.
