Madrid, Sept. 11.—Twenty workmen
unions of the town of Bejar have ad
dressed a circular to the presidents of
American republics begging them to
provide ways and means to enable their
members to emigrate and establish
colonies wherever they may be wanted.
The reason they give for wanting to

of them skilled cloth-makers, are

around the city for the abattoir, and
It Is the intention of those backing the
enterprise to build there the large
$100,000 plant If the city will give free
rental for the first five years. This
concession is asked because of the nec
essary expense of extending the water
mains and railroad tracks, which will
be of permanent Improvement to. tbs
property.

...eetlng of the Investigating comml
and the board of health held Mon
afternoon, when .the matter was thor

be completed by the first of the year,
when the meat ordinance goes Into ef
fect.
EKM! TREASURY
LOOTED OF ITS ALL
From the homes of the Bisters of
Zion a great walling and gnashing of
teeth arose Monday and not all the
balm of Decatur street has served to
allay the anguish. The treasury of the
sisterhood has been looted and the em-
bessler Is still at large.
Mary Manly, who lives In 'the rear
of 460 Piedmont avenue, 1s the trusted
treasurer of the sisters. For years Sis
ter Manly haa been the watchdog of
the treasury which at the last auditing
contained $30 In coin of the realm, two
beer checks and a suspender button.
The funds were kept In Sister Manly’s
own boudoir.
The treasurer was absent Monday
afternoon when a strange negro ap
proached the house. To an tnqusltlve
neighbor he explained that he .was a
relative of Sister Manly and was going
In to tske a nap. Instead he took the
treasury, suspender button and all.
That Is why the 8lsters of Zion will
have no celebration at their anniver
sary next week.
