POOR ASK AID OF ASSOC. CHARITIES Large Amount of Sickness Due to the Changeable Weather.
POOR PEOPLE HELPED Sewing Schools for Women Held at the Society's Rooms. Contrary to what might be expected because of the unusual mild winter, more indigent people have applied for aid from the charitable organizations In Richmond than last year, and at present there is more worjc for the charity workers than they are able to take care of. Mrs. Elizabeth Candler, city missionary, states that there are more cases of sickness among the poor now than has been reported for many months. Because of the changeable weather the poor people have not taken proper care of themselves or they have either failed or been compelled to do without fires are believed to be the causes for the sickness have been reported in families where a widow is supporting her children and is compelled to stay at home and care for them. Other cases are where the father of the family is too ill to work and the family has no other means of support. Cases have been helped by Mrs. Candler among the negroes where tuberculosis has compelled heads of families to stop work. Very few applications for help have been made to the charity workers by foreigners. This is attributed to the fact that they can subsist on very little and are satisfied with less than the average American poor family. The foreigners take advantage of buying stale bread from the bakeries. One Polish family is being helped by the association, the father of which is dead and the mother is unable to provide for the children. Able bodied people have had little trouble in securing work. Only the most worthy cases are being cared for. One family is being provided for where the mother of the family is dead and the father is unable to work. The man has suffered two paralytic strokes following the death of his wife. Lessons in Sewing. One of the most encouraging features of the work of the Associated Charities is the sewing school ses sious which are being held every Saturday in the Associated Charity rooms on South Fifth street. The poor women of the city are there instructed in the making of simple clothes and are instructed as to the proper care of children. "The poor children have never gone to school looking as neatly dressed as they are at this time," said a woman who is one of those in charge of the work. HIS STOMACH TROUBLES OVER. Mr. Dyspeptic, would you not like to feel that your stomach troubles were over, that you could eat any kind of food you desired without injury? That may seem so unlikely to you that you do not even hope for an ending of your trouble, but permit us to assure you that it is not altogether Impossible. If others can be cured permanently, and thousands have been, why not you? John R. Barker, of Battle Creek, Mich., is one of them. He says, "I was troubled with heartburn, indigestion, and liver complaint until 1 used Chamberlain's Tablets, then my trouble was over." Sold by all dealers. (Advertisement) COAL MINE FIRE (National News Association) WILKESBARRE, Pa., Jan. 2. The worst coal mine fire of recent years is raging in No. 12 colliery at Plymouth Coal Co. A fire fighting corps has been engaged for 24 hours but have made no headway. Thousands of dollars damage has been done and the owners have called upon' expert mining men throughout the mining fields to devise means of extinguishing the flames. CONVENTIONS IN MUSIC. Rules Which Song Composert Seem ta Feel They Must Follow. Why is it that all our musicians in writing a nautical song invariably use a portion of the best known hornpipe es the introduction, "vamp," or counter-melody? Why do the open fifths la the bass always appear in rustic songs? Because it can't be belped, it eeems. Our popular Irish songs always have a bar or two of a well known old Irish melody or a drone bass, otherwise they wouldn't be Irish. The exhausted old Turkey and his partner,. the straw, come to the rescue of every "rube" song or dance that is perpetrated, and our national airs must run all through the accompaniment of patriotic songs to give them flavor." Because all of these things are "set" they are conventions. Why must every song end on the tonic note, with the preceding tone either the second or seventh of the scale, unless we except the detestable third or the hollow fifth? Because our audiences expect IL Should on of your composers in a moment of bravery or recklessness produce n score in which he disregarded these many conventions his first sight bearers would go awy remarking that the music was crazy. They do not realize that they expect to hear , the same old thing, served up a trifle ' differently, of course, but still the 'ame.

I The editor explains in his preface that, j while many Gorman nobles "out of court and material considerations: have not kept their blood pure, there are many good business class families which have managed to do so." By thus encouraging the proper pride of such families the pedigree book is doing much to eradicate the traditional envy of the nobles. It Depends on the Dog. Two Broadway business men met before a bar. They were good friends "I'm worried a little," said one. "My chauffeur ran over a dog today and killed it." "Oh. I wouldn't worry about a little thing like that," said the other. "The dog probably got in the way. These dogs are a pest." "But it was your dog." "What!" came from the second. "My dog?

IN FIERCE FIGHT
Luther McCarthy, the Cowboy, Claims Heavyweight Championship. (National News Association) LOS ANGELES, Jan. 2 Luther McCarthy, accredited heavyweight champion of the world, and Al Palzer. the man whom he defeated yesterday in one of the most terrific ring battles ever witnessed in Los Angeles, are resting today. McCarthy, outside of the few bruises, is almost fit to go into another contest. His big opponent is battered and sore and bears numerous marks of the punishment he assimilated yesterday. There is considerable comment among the fight followers here today over the action of Referee Charley Eyton in stopping the fight in the eighteenth round after Lalzer's seconds refused to interfere. For the most part the fans agree that Eyton's . action was justified, that Lalzer was in real danger of being severely hurt ' by the blows of his antagonist and ! that the Iowa man could no longer de- j fend himself. J "I stopped the fight because Palzer I was absolutely helpless. Eyton ex-; plained. "I did not propose to see the , big fellow subjected to useless pun-1 ishment. Palzer is all heart but he had no chance with McCarty." McCarty today, though pleased with his victory had a word of praise for palzer. "If there was ever a fighter who could take more punishment and come back smiling, I'd like to know him," said Luther. "Palzer seemed to have an iron jaw." Palzer, battered and bruised, is still game. He wants another fight. "I want to give McCarty credit. I was beaten by one of the best heavy weights. I did my best but it wasn't good enough. I'd like another chance though." CHANGES ARE MADE IN CLAIMS COURT (National News Association) WASHINGTON. Jan. 2. Following the receipt of the resignation of Stanley J.
