UNIDENTIFIED MAN IS FATALLY STRICKEN Collapses From Heart Disease and Dies Before Reaching Hospital. A gray-bearded little man, com- fortably dressed, who appeared to be fully seventy-five years old, suffered a fatal attack of heart disease on the street today, dying before he reached Casualty Hospital. He was stricken while passing the northeast corner of 12th and C streets northeast about 9:30 o'clock. Residents of the vicinity in which the man was stricken were unable to identify him, and information ob- * tained by the police suggested that he may have relatives in Baltimore. It was said he had been seen in this city by social workers as long as six weeks ago. Written on a piece of paper found in the dead man's pocket was “Mrs. Rendgen, 2438 West Baltimore street, Baltimore,” and “Mrs Ball, 117 W street,” this oity. Mrs. Carleton Ball of the W street address, who is interested in social and charity work, recalled that she had seen the man_ about six weeks ago and referred him to the Asso- clated Charities.

One Dollar - Money Back It Dissatisfied Wild Race for Silver Ledge DAWSON CITY, Y.

MANY CONTRBUTE T0 FUND FOR CANP The appeal of the Salvation Army for donations of $15 to cover the ex- penses of a poor boy or girl to the Fresh Air Camp for a two weeks' out- ing is meeting with a ready response, according to Rudolph Jose, chairman of the citizens' committee engaged in a campaign to raise the $30,000 yearly budget. The Salvation Army's mail. fur- nishes an interesting study in human nature, says Brigadier David Stitt, local commander. Many contributions are anonymous—a one, two or five dollar bill inclosed in an envelope. Where letters accompany the dona- tion they are always most sympa- thetic of the good work the Army is doing. “From the widow of a G. A. R, ofi- cer,” was the line penned by a shak- ing hand and pinned to a bill. One letter received with a substantial contribution was written on hos- pital stationery. “Will you kindly re- quest prayer for me in your meeting that 1 may be healed,” was the con- tributor’s plea. Another wrote: “Kindly accept this small contribution for your campaign fund. I wish that it might be $200 instead of but this is all I can Miners Stage ions received are said s’ committee to be most, but the wish was ex- larger number of per- sons might make their contributions at this time without w one to make personal W, the Cellar Stairs— is not only a doubtful form of exercise but it’s the least satisfactory way of keeping your home sup- plied with hot water.

No danger threatens in the food situation -during Shrine week and the period of swelling population preceding it, but for convenlence and economy home- keepers are urged to lay in an ample supply of food staples be- fore the rush begins. The advice to do this is given by the proper committee, and it ought to be easy to follow the advice. It is believed that families will save Fancy Sugar Cured BREAKFAST BACON Buy a strip or any part of one. You'll have bacon when you need it. Per Ib., 23¢ money and time. It would seem reasonable to stock the pantry with ten days' supply of flour, bacon, ham, sugar and such canned and package goods as it is the custom of the family to use. The indications are that Washington will be crowded as it has never been before, and that demands upon the wholesale and retail food supply houses Wwill be extraordinary. There is no likelihood that food shipments into the District will be checked, and the pros- pect is that all the food needed will be in storage here or on the rails in the freight yards or close at hand. but there will be diffi- culty in_local distribution, and supply houses may find some trouble in keeping an adequate stock of provisions in their storerooms or on their shelves. There will certainly be a great buying rush, and there is apt to be a good deal of confusion. Freight will not be discharged In those vards at which con- signees are in the habit of re- celving it ' Those freight termi- nals will be given up to the park- ing of sleeping cars chartered by visitors to the Shrine convention and festivities. Freight trains will be unloaded at the Ben- ning_ yards and at other out- lying terminals requiring a long haul to places of wholesale dis- tribution. There may be difficulty and de- lay in retail distribution. Transit through the streets will not be as easy as in normal times. Stores are taking on extra em- ployes, but so many firms and shops are reaching out for extra labor that already a shortage is felt in men and women qualified to wait on customers. It will be very easy to avoid possible em- barrassment in the home kitchen and dining room by laying in the necessary stock of food before the crowd comes.
