Not a single Parasol was carried by us from last year. Therefore every one to be shown here is new. It would seem as If the ingenuity of manufacturers had been exhausted In the production of novelties of all kinds, but it has not, and never will be. The Parasols introduced this season are marvels of artistic skill and fnventive genius, and are truly in keeping with the advance and progress noted in all classes of goods. ‘This season's Parasols cannot fail to please, and they are strictly first-class in every respect and the prices are correct. THE LARGE SIZES AND MODERATELY LONG STICKS REMAIN IN VOGUE FOR THE COM- ING SEASON. As a trimming or for the entire Parasol, plain and embroldered chiffons are very fasionable. Round and star-shaped puffings, deep ruffles and an irregular drapery over silk are the most popular trimmings. White, pink, yellow, black, turquoise, cerise and ylolet shades are seen, with white predominating. All of these will be on exhibition here Monday. SILK PARASOLS COME IN STRIPED, CHECKED AND FIGURED CHANGEABLE TAFFETAS in striking color combinations, made on Japanese rods, with handles of foreign woods and small Dresden balls. Ribbon bows finish the handles and ferrules in preference to the rosettes and pompons of past Seasons. SUN AND RAIN UMBRELLAS ARE IN COLORED SILKS, plain and changeable, checked and striped borders. These are also made on Japanese rods with small handles. THE CARRIAGE SHADES OF THIS SEASON ARE PARTICULARLY BEAUTIFUL. Some are handsomely trimmed with chiffon; others with laces, ribbons, crepes and silks. ‘The plain lMned Shades of handsome Gros Grains, Taffetas and Surahs, with ebony handles, will also be popular.

The relief committee have decided that they will not hire any more men than 500, and some of these will undoubtedly be laid off when investigation shows they have no right to charity from the people of the District. The committee meet this after- noon to make the vsual appropriations for the poor and to consider the street work scheme of helping the poor. At 4 o'clock today the men who have been at work will be paid for two days’ work. They will be brought up by the overseers in charge of them in gangs of fifty. One day’s wages will be held back against each man as se- curity for the tools intrusted to him. ‘This will be paid to him on the last pay day. Outsiders Tried to Get Work. Five hundred men are doing charity work today shoveling the slush and snow out of the streets. The doors of the central relief committee's headquarters on Louisiana avenue yesterday were besieged by four or five hundred applicants for this work. All could not be taken, but as rapidly as the clerks could go through the labor of is- suing tickets they added three hundred to those already hired. The men who applied were glad of a chance to get a dollar a day. There were men from all over the District and there were scores who were not from any part of the District. Mary- land and Virginia contributed not a few, and some betrayed in their garb the fact of a recent residence as far away as the fishing shores of the Chesapeake. These it Is needless to say, did not get a job. None but our own poor workingmen: were to get work. These will all get 2 dollar for their day. The authorities say they could get thousands of men in half a day’s time at fifty cents if they were wanted, but_a dollar a day will be paid until fur- ther notice. To Be Paid Tonight. The men will be paid tonight at the com- mittee headquarters, on Louisiana avenue. Every man must sign a receipt for his pay. The relief committee will meet this afternoon at Judge Cole’s rooms in the city hall to make the necessary appropriation of funds and arrange for further relief work. It is not unlikely that the force of charity laborers will be considerably in- creased next week. Those who have been at work this week still have three days’ service to perform in the coming week be- fore they will be laid off and others given a chance for their slice of the charity funds. Applications for Help Decreasing. One gratifying result of this employment of deserving poor laborers is the almust complete cessation of calls for help in certain parts of the city, where the most distressing destitution prevailed. The po- lice report from nearly all the precincts a surprising falling off today in the number of applications for relief. In the northeast, where there was a g@@at deal of poverty and perhaps a larger proportion of cases needing aid, the police say the pressure is almost entirely removed by the employment of idle men who had families to support. The thorough acquaintance which the po- lice have with the laboring men of the city makes this statement interesting and reassuring. The Collectio: Nearly Done. The collection of gifts by citizens of clothing, ‘boots and shoes, groceries and other articles of charity will be complete tonight, so far as the systematic canvass of the city goes. Unavoidably many places have been passed by and not a few in- quiries reach the committee every day frem people who have bundles that have been waiting a fortnight to be delivered. Some of these undoubtedly occur where, from oversight, those who gave failed to put their address upon the blanks. AS a signal instance of this way of doing things Mr. Gardner showed a blank today where ‘some coal dealer offered to sell in quarter-ton lots stove coal at $1.50 per quarter ton, instead of $1.60, the regular price, and to give with each such lot a gratuitous contribution of 25 cents’ worth cf pine kindling. This was undoubtedly a genuine gift, kindly intended, end if it can be traced to its author will result in doing great good, but no name was signed to it, and the committee are at a loss where to look for the donor. The commitiee wagons are cerrying out large supplies of goods to- day, as usual, to the police and Associated Charities. Charity Entertainment. An entertainment for the poor, arranged by Miss Edna Nalley, was given last night by the Rays of Light, a club composed of the following boys and girls, from eight to ten years of age: Eugene Merillat, presi- dent; Edna Nalley, treasurer; Minnie Dier- kin, secretary; Florence Stevens, vice pres- ident; Helen Murray, Lily Heller, Eddie Caroll, Walter Sacs, Jennie Dierkin, at the residence of the vice president, Miss Flor- ence Stevens, 62 I street northwest. The program consisted of musical and literary exercises, which were very interesting. There will be a pound party at the Four- teenth street branch of the Central Union Mission, No. 2304 lith street northwest, Monday evening, for the poor. The young people of the Gunton Temple Memorial Church will conduct a gospel service after the pound party. Those who cannot come are requested to send donations to the branch or notify the superintendent, John E. M. Gantt, 1217 T street northwest, and they will be called for. Meetings will be held Wednesday and Friday at the same hour. The Wednesday evening service will be in charge of the young people of the Fourth Presbyterian Church. Miscellaneous Notes. Thursday the relief committee furnished the ladies of the Loyal Legion 1,000 yards of canton flannel, to be made up by their force of sewing women. The Loyal Legion has employed a number of women in this way all winter, and has done much to as- sist people who would have been loath to accept downright charity. The force of men employed by the Asso- clated Charities cleaning snow in the coun- ty has been increased to 120. Twenty were put on yesterday in the northern part of the District. One force was set to clean out Whitney avenue leading from 14th to 1vth streets, and another to digging out drifts on 14th street. - There were 109 calls for aid at Central Union Mission yesterday against 185 the day before. Mr. John B. Wight was highly gratified yesterday when there came in from the government printing office the magnificent gift of $773.85 for the poor. This is *he largest contribution of money from any one government bureau, and reflects great credit on the craft. The Star's Fund.
