changed. The nurse has her duties as
well as the physician and she is at his
right hand for work and is trained to
DO 1t successfully.
Your responsible positions as nurses
bring you in contact with many rough
places and much depends upon your
success by the preparation you have

WOMAN PLEADS
To SAVE BLAKE
IN BOSTON SHE lNTERCEDES
FOR PRISONER
Having Followed Man She Loves to
California She Precedes Him East
to Stifle Prosecution Of
Possible

1t was learned last night that
Thomas A! Blake, alleged embezzler of
$4,000 worth of securities, belonging
not meet his mysterious young woman
friend at the Arcade station Wednes-
day afternoon, but Travelled alone in
the company of the Boston inspectors.
1t was asserted by a police official
that Mrs. May Richards" went to
Boston last week with an expressed in
tention of settling the amount Of
Blakes alleged defalcation.
If the handsome young woman Is the
Boston woman whose name has been
coupled with Blake's. as has been in
timated in eastern dispatches, it is
said that she is easily able to make
good the alleged shortage.
When Blake left Boston, April so, a
beautiful young widow, the pet of
ia. hionable Back Bay society, also dis
appeared. She was known to be
friendly with Blake.
When the young man was arrested at
Long Beach he was in the company of
pretty young woman who gave the
name of MAY Richards"
Her Visits Ceased
During the first few days of Blake's
incarceration his companion was con-
stant in her visits upon Blake and
then suddenly disappeared.
Wednesday afternoon, it was sup
posed that she would accompany Blake
on his journey east, but she was not
on the train, according to a detective.
1t is believed that she is now in BoS-
ton endeavoring to stifie prosecution of
the man with whom she eloped.
If she is the wealthy young society
woman she is supposed to be, police
officials express the belief that her ef-
forts may result in finally freeing the
man she loves
Blake was confidential clerk for
Hornblower & Weeks for six years. His
alleged larceny occurred last year, in
order to make good heavy investments
in the stock market, it is claimed.
Woman Was Shocked
gBlake admitted to a reporter that his
companion was ignorant of his alleged
embezzlement when she left Boston
and was greatly shocked to learn of
the charge against the man for whom
she forsook society.
She told police official that she
would do everything in her power to
free Blake and while here aided De-
tective Captain Flammer in recovering
a portion of the alleged stolen securi-
ties.
1t is firmly believed at police head
quarters that Mrs. May Richards" is
even now pleading with the Boston
stock brokers to forego criminal prose-
cution of their former clerk.

LOCAL MILK AND MEAT INSPECTION.


With increased knowledge of bac-
teriology and corresponding appre-
citation of the important part which
germ life occupies in the existence and
spread of different diseases, special
emphasis is coming to be placed upon
the Importance and necessity of hav-
ing food supplies, and particularly milk
and meat products, free from contain
ination by disease germs. A thriving
western city with which we are ac-
quainted which has gradually evolved
from a quiet rural hamlet to busting
manufacturing center has lately decid-
ed on an inspection of all milk and
meat which are to be sold in the corpora
ton. The city council was led to take
this action as a result of the discovery
of a considerable number of tubercu-
losis cases and the discovery that some
diseased animals were being killed for
the local market, eight hogs which the
home butcher was too busy to handle
being killed and dressed in a local
packing plant which was under gov
eminent inspection, it being found that
one of the eight hogs was badly dis
eased. The incident cited simply goes
to show that the day is not far distant
when a sentiment touching the danger
to public health from contaminated
sources of food supply will be aroused
to the point where it will insist on the
careful inspection of these two impor-
tant food products-milk and meat.
And there is no place this gospel needs
preaching more than in the smaller
cities all over the country whose dairies
and slaughter houses have not as yet
been placed under official inspection.
While some states provide for the kill
| ing of all dairy animals found affected
with tuberculosis, the matter Is usual
| ~ left as a matter of option to indi-
vidual communities, while in none Of
them, so far as we know, is there pro-
vision for the general inspection OF
beef and pork and scientific examina-
| ton of dairy herds. The day is near
at hand when there will be county or
district official whose duty it will be to
| look after the meat and milk inspec-
| ton of every town in his territory.
