PLAGUE OF MOTHS INFESTS STATION
Millions of frogs and locusts were sent to plague Pharoah, ruler of Egypt thousands of years ago, but the king had incurred divine wrath. Today a plague of gray moths has invaded the Pennsylvania station to torment Stationtnaster Mayhew, who has tried to keep the station clean. Thousands of dead insects are scattered over the floor of the train sheds, where they have fallen after flying against the globes of the arc lights. In many places the floor is slippery with them. With the great strain of being cheerful to the hundreds of perHons who pass in and out of the station daily, Mayhew can not understand why this additional burden had been thrust upon him.

CHARITIES TO HEED APPEAL FOR WORK
The conference of Secretary Melpolder and Mayor Robbins Saturday relative to securing employment for applicants at the Central Bureau of
Charities, resulted in the calling of j
another conference for Wednesday of Mr. Melpolder, Mayor Robbins, Alfred Bavis and C. W. Jordan. Mr. Melpolder has several plans for action. The employment agency, should one be established, will be free to men who have lost their positions through no fault of their owu. It is possible that the city will help by appropriating money to do special work, thus giving employment to a number of men. There are no statistics as to the number of men who are not working. Because there is no clamor for work, some persons say that families in Richmond are not worrying over the period of slack employment. Others say it would be impossible for a free agency to supply all applicants with work in this city.

NEW CIVIC SOCIETY WORKS FOR BRIDGE
At the regular meeting of the Southwest Richmond Improvement Association tonight, a committee of three members will be appointed to act with
a similar committee appointed at the West Side Improvement Association last Friday night to work toward securing the South E street location for the proposed bridge. Other organizations of the city will be invited to appoint members to the committee and make it a city committee in favor of the E street location. Members of the two West Richmond civic societies feel that almost a county-wide sentiment has been aroused against placing the bridge at L street.
Feeling among persons directly af
fected by the proposed bridge Is intense.
Later it is probable that the South
west Richmond Improvement Associa
tion will hold meetings only once a month instead of every week.
