OUR OWN SUFFERERS Plenty of Poor People Without Ad- ding Industrial Tramps. MANY IN WANT THIS SUMMER It Will Probably Be a Hard Winter for the Poor. NEEDS OF LITTLE ONES While there are several hundred persons in the so-called industrial ‘camps in Mary- land and Virginia who subsist chiefly on food gathered from stores and private houses there are also a number of respect- able residents of the District who are in need of assistance, and they would probably be much better off if the food collected by the tramp paupers were given to them. During the hearing of some of the cases of aileged tramps in the Police Court Judge Miller has told them that Washington had its own poor to look after and the citizens could not stand being taxed to support the jor of all the states in the Union. Still they are taxing the people here for a great amount of their food, and the local poor have to suffer thereby, for there are some rersons who are willing to contribute to the com- monwealere who would hardly notice some poor man, woman or child who has lived here as a member of this community for years. Never before, for many years at least, has there been a summer when there were 80 many calls at police headquarters for relief as there has been this summer. There are by no means as many applicants now us there were during the severe weather last winter when so many thousands of persons were out of employment, and when clothing, as well as food, fuel and provi- sions, was in great demand. Then Chief Clerk Sylvester was kept busy atteading to the charity business in addition to the great amount of work done by the regularly organized citizens’ relief committee. Last winter the state of affairs with reference to the poor was something terrible, but the generous public did not fail to respond to the call for assistance and much suffering was prevented thereby. Then, the chief clerk received and distributed all sorts of articles and cash, although there was not @ great amount of cash to give away. Strong men, as well as women and children, called at the chief clerk's office and begged for a few dollars with ich to pay their rent for a short while and many such per- sons were assisted. But, as a rule, Mr. Sylvester, acting for the departm-nt, pre- ferred to give food, fuel and clothing in- stead of ready cash, and where such articles would serve the purpose they were given. In this way the persons who -ontributed were protected from impostors to a great extent, although there were undoubtedly some persons relieved who were not at all deserving. But this is always the case in charity work, and the most careful scrutiny cannot prevent it. Upon the whole, how- ever, with the careful investigation given by the police, the impostors were few and far between. There is no poor fund provided by Con- gress, and the poor of the city have to de- pend largely upon the public contributions, although ther> is set apart, to be expended under the direction of the police depar:- ment, the interest on the centennial inaug- ural fund, which amounts to about $1,400, end the average cash contributions amount to about $1,000 or $1,200. This nary winters, when there has been no lack of work during the summer months, but last winter, of course, was an exception. Then, as already stated, the citizens’ com- mittee rendered valuable assistance in the work of receiving and distributing dona- tions of food, fuel, clothing and cash. Little Ones Saffer. Chief Clerk Sytvester's experience in charitable work has shown him that when, in the winter months, Jarge donations ate received, there are scores of persons who and ask for sssistance simply because know there is something to give, while the summer the persons who apply are ‘ostly in distress and are persons worthy béen unusually la og hile the um rge, wil t means at the chief clerk’s command are small, he has rendered much valuable as- sistance and~saved many good™ the necessity of begging from ds and strany>rs for money to keep a roof over their heads. The majority of these who ‘are calling for relief at this season, says Mr. Syivester, are women, many of whom have children or aged parents “to support. With these people the innocent little children, Mr. Syl- vester finds, are the worst sufferers. Dur- ing the extremely Lot weather the babies need ice, good milk and many delicacies which money alone can get them; but their parents being unable to even raise the small amovnt required, the little ones have to suffer. One case came to his attention the other day, in which a man came here from a distant state, and brought with him his wife and children. He expected to get @ government position, but, falling in this, he wes obliged to fall back on the police, and was given relief in the shape of rent, food and fuel. Once helped, however, such people seem to think that they can depend on this source for assistance, and in some cases the family has to be supported for weeks. 2 ge BR of work and unabl+ to get employment, and a majority of them find a way to get some- thing to eat. Mr. Sylvester thinks something should be done for the babies and children of persons who are too poor ta provide their offspring with the necessaries of life, and one of these necessaries, he thinks, is a summer outing. A system of free excursions should be inaugurated, he says, and there should be a place where the mothers of the sick ones might take them to the country, some place in the mountains, or other cool spot, where a few days would bee them back to their normal condition. He thinks an inexpensive place of this kind would be an honor to the city and a blessing to some of the little sufferers. White Applicants. ‘Thus far this month nearly thirty persons have called and asked for assistance in the way of paying their rent, a thing unusual at this season. One was a one-armed man with a family, another a young woman who was the only support of an invalid father, and another in which a daughter was the only support of a family, and could not even earn $8 with which to pay her rent. It is singular that in the summer time almost all the applicants are white pengie, a colored person seldom appearing. r. Sylvester a ints for this by reason of a number of white persons, mechanics and clerks, being out of employment and unable to live as most of the poorer colored ones do. With this class of colored persons their work of hauling ashes, shaking carpets, white washing and doing other odd jobs must be done and they are the persons to do such work. Besides this they live on less than the average white person, and do not have to pay so much house rent. Then, too, they lend a helping hand to their friends, and if one of their number happens to be without a place of residence he finds no difficulty in getting a room where he either will not have to pay any ient or where the amount is so small that he finds no trouble in paying it. With last winter’s experience in the char- itable work, Mr. Sylvester thinks the com- ing winter will be even worse, if it is to be judged from experience in past years. He expects there will be just as many, if not more, poor persons next winter than there were last winter, but the people will not be in so goed a condition to render assistance. While recognizing the fact that the people of the city are charitable in the extreme, and are always ready to respond to a call for assistance, he realizes the fact that some of the charitable people taxed thom- selves to the fullest extent last winter, and this comi: winter they wil! not have any- thing to give, and then there are persons, he says, who have aided the Coxeyites in the face of local conditions, and this, too, will, no doubt, operate to the injury of the local poor. ee Bay Ridge on the Chesapeake.

The program this week inciudes some excellent .special- tles, notably, Brocks and Denton, the king banjoists; the Dalys, Duncan, the ventrilo- quist, and John A. Coleman. The living pictures are as attractive as ever, and the audiences this week have been unusually large, and have given expression to their satisfaction by encoring nearly every num- ber on the program.
