CHARITY.

LOTTERIES FOR HOSPITALS: REJECTED,

London, May 18. The contro- versial question of re-sing money for hospitals by means of lotterici was brought up in the House of Commons to-day by a Bill which aime at authorising such lottorica. The Bill was sponsored by a Conservative member and opposed by a Liberal,

The House, by 181 votes to 88, refused leave to introdues the Bill The spokesman against the Bill pointed out that in the first Irish sweepstake, cut £708,000 raised, only 181,000 went to hospitals. This method of raising money, he said, would "poison, the well of charity

| and smear cupidity, with a thin

| veneer of charity."

"The Good Samaritan," he ad ded, "would have occupied a very different place in history if he had discharged his account to bis neighbour by spending his twa pen nies in n Jericho Eospital sweep."
