THE COMMITTEES Loving hands and hearts are working for the hungry host at Central Union Mission. Eight hundred families will be served with @ Thanksgiving dinner, and 1,000 men, wo- men and children will be fed at the tables of the mission. Today has been one of activity and preparation. The first floor of the mission begins to look like a store- house for provisions. Hundreds of bushels of potatoes and other vegetables, piles of bread and flocks of dead turkeys encumber ficor corners and tables. The turkeys will be baked at the National Hotel, and the 1e- mainder of the cooking will be done at the mission. Applications for aid are coming in by the score. When the reporter called this afternoon there was a line of poorly- fed and worse-clad people in waiting. These gave their names and addresses to the ‘secretaries. These memoranda were turned over to the investigators, and, if found to be worthy cases, a dinner will be served. A committee of ladies is at work filling in the names and addresses of benv- ficiaries on the tags. which will be tied to the half-bushel baskets in which the din- ners will be served. Wagons are today collecting the dona- tions which have been solicited by the mis- sion workers, or that have been volun- teered to the good cause. In addition to the feasting on the day of thanks, there will be religious services from 11 to 4 and from 7:30 to 9:30, The leaders will be B. D. Bailey, Geo. W. Havell, Percy S. Foster, Geo. W. Wheeler, Rev. J. D, Smith, Rev. Mr. Pos, W. E. Redding, Rev. Dr. Todd, W. C. McMichael. The Committees. : The Thanksgiving committees are as fol- lows: General Committee. B. D. Bailey, chairman; A.

Mrs. McMichael and superintendents, committees and workers at all of the branches, Many cases of destitution have been re- ported by the mission investigators. Bad weather will bring intense suffering to a large element. The scenes of last winter will be repeated with a darker coloring. The mission evangelist, Rev. J. D. Smith, told the following pathetic story this after- noon to a number of the sympathetic work- ers at the mission: “In my visits last week I found five families who had received official notice to leave their homes. Not one of them had @ particle of food or fuel in the house, and some of them had sold their furniture to get food. I spent all my own Ley to buy groceries for one of the when I carried the packaaentas Sie take . the woman was so overcome that she fell back in the chair unable to receive them.” ———_. WATER MAIN ASSESSMENTS. Mr. 8. T. Thomas, attorney for the Dis- trict, today rendered an important opinion to the Commissioners upon the question whether assessments for laying water mains can be levied against lots 1, 2, 3 and 4, in the subdivision known as Brookland, for water main in Bunker Hill road (these lots having already been assessed for a main in Providence street). The act of Ccngress to regulate water-main assess- ments, approved August 11, 1804, declares that: “Hereafter assessments levied for laying water mains in the District of Co- lumbia_ shall be at the rate of $1.25 per linear foot against all lots of land abut- ting upon the street, road or alley, on which a water main may be lat ete.” In his opinion, Mr. Thomas “ “In view of this statute my opinion ts the above lots may be assessed for a water main laid in Bunker Hill road, notwith- standing they have already been assossed for a maiu in Providence street. The statute changes the principle of assess- ment from area to front foot, and on the* principle of frontage these lots may be assessed for a main on both fronts.” copa Mrs. Wood Sues for Damages. Mrs. Sarah F.”Wood of 808 6th streot southwest today filed suit-at-law for dam- ages against the Washington and George- town Railroad Company, asking $15,000. It is claimed that on October 2 last, whilo Mrs. Wood was about to alight from a cable car at 7th and H streets southwest, the car was suddenly started and she wan thrown to the ground, sustaining @ violent concussion of fer right side and leg. As a result of her injuries Mrs, Wood avers that she has lost the carnings of her em- ployment in the Department. Herbert M. Locke is the attorney for the plaintitt. ——.—— Mrs. Banister Wants a Divorce. Susan Banister today brought sult for divorce from Clayton Banister. The mar- riage occurred in August, 1876 The com- plainant etates that they Ived together until May, 1887, during which time che was treated in the most indecent, brutal and cruel manner by her husband, with- out any fault on her part, and that he re- fused to support her and his four children. Mrs. Banister goes on to say that in May, 1887, her husband offered such indignities to her person that he forced her to with- draw from his house.
