They were mar ried at DePere, Wis, Sept 5, 1869, the husband being now aged 72 and the wife 73.

This report, to gether with additional Information se cured from other commissioners abroad, forms the basis for the appeal which the above committee is making for $35,000,000 this year to save the lives of war's victims in those coun tries where the situation is most dire. The headquarters are at 13 East 40th Street, New York. If America could be given but a glimpse of the childhood of Poland," says Dr. Davis, "the millions of dollars that are needed would be forthcoming instantly. The common lot of literally thousands of these youngsters, both Christian and Jewish, makes strong men weep and has actually been the cause of a number of Investigators for various organizations leaving the coun try before their work was completed. Walk down the streets In certain sections of Warsaw, Vilna, Eovno and other cities in Eastern Europe and you will see mother after mother, them selves emaciated, carrying children who are apparently Infants of a few months, but in reality are five to eight years old. For years they had no milk, and all the other food procurable has been sufficient only to keep thenj alive. Undernourishment has been so long continued that the little bodies are stunted, rickets being a common afflic tion, and many of them can never be restored to normal health and strength. The lives of thousands can still be saved, however," the doctor told the Jewish Committee In hi report, "if food is rushed over quickly. It is in the name of the pitiful chil- ; dren of Poland, the babies of Christian as well as Jewish parents, that I urge you to make your appeal to America for the funds that will restore their birthright to these little ones." New York. Included In the more than $8,000,000 worth of supplies sent abroad by American Jewish relief agencies thus far this year were sev eral hundred tons of "kosher" meat. The steamer Ashburn, which left here some time ago for Danzig, carried 500 tons of this commodity, while . the Huacbuca, which has just sailed, 0 carrying a smaller consignment to Con stanza, Rumania." Unusual interest attaches to both these shipments. Prominent Jews of this city Inspected the first cargo. Jewish rabbis blessed the barrels of meat as they were lowered Into the ship's hold. The meat was a gift from tne Jews or America to tneir co religionists In Poland and other parts! of Europe. These European Jews have! eaten virtually no meat in five years for their religion prohibits them using meat other than that killed by a rabbi and in an orthodox manner, and "kosher" meat has been unobtainable. Among the other supplies sent In these regular shipments are oap, clothing, shoes and shoe-repairing ma terials, large quantities of notions, medicines, hospital supplies and a long list of additional articles, every one of which is lacking la the war wrecked countries across the Atlantic Funds to continue these regular sail, ings of relief ships are now being sought by the American Jewish Eellef Committee, whose headquarters are at 15 East 40th Street, this city. Louis Marshall is chairman and Henry H. Bosenfelt director of this organiza tion. Campaigns are scheduled for this fall in some twenty states, and It Is expected to bring the total contribu tions for Jewish relief this year up W. $35,000,000. .
