While preparing to start the fire In the furnace she found the furniture covering on the air box Just back of the furnace, where tramps had made a bed the night previous.

The KartryUon made in yfdtndav’* Herald that Augusta shall give the *••!- dler* wintering here a Christmas din ner ha* been »Idely rematlied upon, and a number of augeattona mad* aa to feasible plans for earrylng out lb> work The moat practical plan would be for the Army and Navy league and (the merebanta to eo-operate In collect - ing eontributtons. Of course It would not be possible to serve a dinner at the same hour to seven thousand men, but It la suggested that aome central depot be arranged for the reception of, supplies, and that a committee tie ap pointed to dlatrtbute these supplies among the various commissary depart ment In accordance with Ihe *ise of each regiment. The asslatanee of the various quartermasters In the matter of distribution would of c ourse greatly ex- j pedlte the work. A number of business men In speak Ing of the plan proposed by The Herald | declared that the dinner, aside from serving a hospitable purpose would prove of value as an advertlslntr me dium for Augusta. Not a soldier will be entertained who will not write home of the gracious hospitality of this favored hospitality. The merchants, realising this, are ready to do their part, and It only remains for someone, with rare executive ability, to under take the leadership in an enterprise which Is bound to be successful.
