Home. The bids were as follows: J.
B. Woolscy & Co., 1174; Green Kidge
Lunger company, f-H9: John Benore,
SITE the Peck Lumber company, $195.
The Contract was awarded to the low
est bidder.
The number of poor people applying
for relief was greater than usual, and
more of them came from the South
Side than any other section of the city,
this condition Is due to the idle steel
mills. Some of the people told har
lowing stories of distress, in some
cases not having at home more than
half a loaf of bread and no coal to keep
a lire going. Unless the mills sturt up
and furnish the people of that section
with work there will undoubtedly be
much privation and suffering this win
ter, and the poor board will be kept
busy dealing out relief.

granted $4 a month for two months on
account of having been mnrried re
cently to a man who already had a
wife und when she found that out she

the latter's three children, are staying
with her and they have no one to de
pend on. Mrs. Mulherin Is sicklv nnd
Mrs. Feeney is foil old to go out and

be It ft to Dr. Paine, but the doctor
didn't want it left to him. He said he

THil learned thatNlquor was sold by
Mlrm. Feeney without a license. Mrs.
Feeney Indignantly denied that she
ever sold a drop, but she admitted that
her daughter did, and she added, "But
she wus sickly and couldn't work, and
what could tho poor girl do?"

SHE SEEKS DIVORCE.
Mrs. A. D. Spencer Charges Her Hus
band With Cruelty and Wants
a Separations
Tho expected Spencer divorce pro
ceedings were instituted yesterday,
when the wife, Mrs. Emma Spencer, by
her next friend, Reuben N. I .a Bnr,
brought suit for a separation und ali
mony from her husband, A. D. Spencer.
They were married Feb. 21, 1801, and
lived together until April of the present
ytar. The grounds for the divorce are
cruelty.
Mrs. Spencer charges that on the first
day of April and ot divers other times
her husband turned her out of doors
and otherwise treated her cruelly,
making life with him intolerable and
forcing her to withdraw from his house.
8. H. Price and I. H. Burns are Mrs.
Spencer's attorneys.

INSANITY IS ALLEGED.
Attempt to Break the Will of the Late
Mrs. Bevan.
The property of the late Rev. Dr.
Bevan, who' founded the now nourish
ing Penn Avenue Baptist churc h, back
In the sixties, was the bone of conten
tion in a contested will case before
Register W. S. Hopkins yesterday
afternoon.
When Dr. Bevan died he decreed that
his property should go to his wife, Mrs.
Marv L. Bevan. and at her death to
his daughter Miss Mary E. Bevan. The
mother died recently and In her will,
written' bv her own hand, she cuts off
her daughter with only the real es
tate, which, of course, she could not
deprive her of, and leaves all the per
sonal property, with the exception of
$1,000, bequeathed to a nephew, R. L.
Lewis; to charities, such as the Home
for the Friendless, 29 East Twenty
ninth street. New York; the Society
for the Education of Colored Persons:
the Baptist Publication society, in
Philadelphia, and to various home and
foreign missionary societies.
The daughter brings a contest al
leging that the mother was Insane and
that the best evidence of her insanity
is found in the fact that she gave to
strange persons what was rightfully
the property of her daughter, who had
always cared for her and to whom she
wan devotedly attached.
Attorney A. D. Dean represents the
contestant and Attorney Mllo Wilson
defends the will.
