SUPPLYING HOME COMFORTS AN ENTERTAINMENT FOR THE HSENEFIT FUND. Food, Medicine, Nursing and Neces- sary Assistance Afforded Unfortunates at the Camps. A very pleasing and successful muslcal, 1it. v and social entertainment was given last evening at Turner Hall, on Eighteenth street, for the benefit of the soldlers’ fund of the Catholic Truth So- ciety. The sale of tickets was large and the result will be a substantial addition to the working capital of this deserving organization. The programme was well selected, be- ing largely devoted to patriotic songs and instrumental numbers, which were greet- ed with generous applause. Among the selections were a well executed war song | by Miss Ella Donlon; a tenor solo, “‘Just Before the Battle,” by Robert Saxe, | which was heartily encored; songs by a glee club from Camp Merritt; a recita- | tion by Harry Stafford; a very pleasantly rendered patriotic m)ni by muiss Tillie Ma- honey; f. v dancing by Annie and Mabe a well executed piano solo by Quajada; artistic dancing by Margie McGivary and Annie McNeil and a soprano solo by Miss Adelaide Haubold, with guitar accompaniment.

Where are the minions of the {lfustrious Isaiah W. Lees when the town is overrun with these agents, or rather, hat are their instructions in the prem- cents. Ogden was on party_or signed to - ses? But the officials of the Government, when doing the work of Lees, seem total- 1y regardless of his methods of procedure from start to finish. In the eyes of one who is familiar with the way things are done in the upper office at the City Hall it seems remarkable that the advice of its superannuated head was not asked but after the capture was made what, to Lees, is the most important part of the affair, was wholly neglected. When Ma- inr Moore was asked about the matter he did not puff out, don a supercllious and condcs('(‘mlinlg smile, spit all over the walls, and_tell all about how “I" did it. He seemed, on the (‘nntrur{. to have a general aversion to dlscussing the mat- fer, and simply sald that he had acted upon instructlons, gathered evidence, had the tickets seized and that was all about 1t. Different people do the same things in widely different ways. ——————— St. Ignatius Sodality.

The organization for which the enter- tainment was given is laboring with high- ly gratifying success in providing neces- sitfes and comforts for the soldiers at L'am[S Merritt and the Presidio.

Another feature of the good work of the Catholic Truth Society is the furnishing of postage stamps to all who have letters to mail. As a result of this from 2000 to 2000 letters are posted every day.

The greater part of the forenoon and of the afternoon session was given to fur- ther discussion, each section being taken up and passed upon. There w few slight changes, but the only one that the press committee declared was of general public interest was the effort to change the amount of the death benefit. That was allowed to remain at the s fixed in_the old constitution, namely, $150. Rev. Father Cummings, at the after- noon session, delivered an addr did also Past Grand President Mrs. Ragan, each dwelling upon the work that the grand body has already done and encouraging the ladles to continue in the good work and expand their mi. on..

A younglady in New York City relates the curious case of he¥sister who suffered from a sort of nervous dyspepsia—that was what the doce tor called it. She was despondent low-spirited, inclined to imagine all sorts of things. One thing especially seemed to be in her mind ; that was the idea that abscesses were forming in different parts of her body.' ‘The sister who tells the story had found Ripans Tabules a specific fort eadache, and generally bad a supply on hand. One day, more in oke than in eamnest, she said to the afflicted one: “Tty theses they'll cure you.” Well, she did try them, and strangely enough the, Tabules did cure her. The despondency left her.
