VERY Bic MONEY
ON SMALL JOBS
The Grand Jury Looking
Upon the City and County
Hospital.
DR.. Stable Explains About That
Rich, Costly Velvet
Carpet.
The Attempted Bribery of Dr.. Dodge
by Milkman Frank Marty
Also Inquired Into.

The Grand Jury was occupied all day
yesterday with an inquiry into the at
tempt on the part of Milkman Frank
Marty to bribe Supervisor Washington
Dodge in his effort to secure a renewal of
his contract 10 deliver milk to the City
and County Hospital, and also into the
alleged misn anagement or misappropria-
tion of funds at the City and County Hos
pitai.
Dr. Dodge himself told how Marty ap-
preached him in the matter declaring he
would give $1,000 tor the contract.
Captain Reddy, superintendent of the
Aimshouse, and Colonel McCIung. the
bookkeeper, also told how Marty offered
them money without any consideration
on different occasions while delivering
milk there under The old contract, which
money they refused to accept.
The jury will continue the investigation
at the next sitting.
In the other matter a great mum bef of
witnesses were called, among them DR..
Hart, chairman OF the hospital ommittee
of the Board of Eealth, ex-SuperIntendent
Stable, Steward Edmonds and ex-Steward
Robinson and his son, formerly assistant
steward, and ApOthecary Hickman.
The inquiry developed the fact that
there had been at least ridiculous mis-
management, with indications of worse.
The testimony of ex-Steward Robinson
went to show that not enough money was
allowed the hospital to carry it on prop
erly, and that in the face OF this fact work
was undertaken calling for many times
the sum in hand. In this way, he said,
money was frittered away. The sewerage
of the hospital was simply an invitation
TO disease, he said. He had tried to make
some improvement in certain of the drains
and taken fever in consequence that laid
him up for months. He said that in lay
ing the new drains the old drains had been
allowed TO remain and we're nuisance to
the health of the people about the hospi-
tai who were not already sick. He said
that the hospital was a bankrupt affair;
that the beds and bedding were old and
dilapidated and that no appropriation
that could be obtained on the score of re-
pairs could put the institution in order.
DR.. Hart testified TO much the same
thing.
Steward Edmonds told how big money
had been spent on small jobs.
DR.. Stable was asked about that velvet
carpet which was bought out of the hos
pital fund and put down in his own
house He said that when he took the
superintendency he called for new car
pei for the cffice. as the one on the floor
was very shabby. The Supervisors said
there was no money and DR.. Stable took
carpet out OF his own house and put it
down in the office. When he went ont of
office he would not take the carpet which
had been in the public service so long and
the Supervisors allowed him to buy new
carpet for his house to take the place of
the other.
The whole matter was referred 70
committee for thorough investigation
and special report.

by him that there was none, for If there had
been it would surely have been noticed oy

result.

TROUBLE COMES D0UBLY.
Health Inspector Dockery's Father and
Brother Both Dangerous Ill.

Health Inspector Dockery's Father and
Brother Both Dangerous HI.
Health Inspector Dockery is meeting
with series OF misfortunes which have
awakened the sympathy of all the officials
al the new City Hall. Some time ago Mr..
Dockery's father fell seriously i'll and he
has been considered TO be in critical con-
diiion for some time. Mr.. Dockery has
passed all the time he could spare from
his official duties with his father. Re-
Gently lie communicated with another son,
his brother. Rev. Father Dockery of New
Orleans. The last named gentleman ielt
as deeply as the Heath Inspector and
iourreyed all the way from New Orleans
10 this City that ne might be near his
parents bedside.
Rev. Father Dockery had hardly arrived
in the City when he also iell sick. 1t soon
became apparent that he, too, was seri-
ously i'll. Late last week the Rev. Father
Dockery went TO the German Hospital,
where an extremely painful operation
was performed on him. Yesterday he
was considered 10 be dangerously sick.
Mr.. Dockery is thus doubly distressed.
His father does not know OF the danger
Gus illness of his son. Rev. rather Dockery.

it were much to be desired that the
church should not be made a place of

established etiquette of the house of

immemorial. But it is natural that
it should be best preserved by those

judicial. 1t discards contemptuous

sparingly. All direct attack is avoid

He went inside a few moments, and

What did you lose?'

How much was it?''

"Ah. hal" said he of the mustache,
..now my little girl here you are!' and
he held up the loveliest sash Alice had
ever seen. She knew it was not hers,
for it was far broader and more lovely.
Yet when he said. II suppose it is

out her hand well, I'm glad you
found it, little girl said he. Alice
bowed, she did not dare to speak, and
as she neared the door her parcel SEEM
ed to grow heavy and burn her hand.
She opened it and looked at the sash.
How lovely it was! Strange! she
seemed to see through it, and there
was her mothers face, while voice
said 1.-THE truth is sure to save. and

Up went her head She walked
straight to the impressive young man
and said:
This is not my parcel, siri My rib
bon was half this width, and not nearly

The young man looked surprised and
cleared his throat He forgot to pull
his mustache, and said respectfully, 1

the door and held it open for her as II
she had been great lady.

happy and begged that the tuck should

who had been grandma's sweetheart
fifty years ago.
He declared that Alice was repro

brought out string of rare old pearls
and fastened them around Alices neck.

Too hot to breathe the whole day long;
Tco hot for signing or for song;
Too hot to cast the baseball scores,
To quarrel with your creditors;
Too hot to leaf on hills or plains;
Too hot to travel on the trains;
Too hot for fishing in the stream;
Too hot to drift, too hot to dream;
Too hot to mark meath sultry skies
Insane thermometers that rise;
And while the lurid moments fly,
To hot to live-too hot to die.
