L0vELORN GIRLS WILL
y RESUME FINISH FIGHT
STRANGE PUeILlsTIc ENcoUN.
TER SCHEDULED
It's to Be the Real Thing This Time
and the Quaker Police Won't
Be in on the
Secret

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. SCI win fight
her any time she wants to finish it,
Emily McNally.
Il am lady, but am not afraid of
her. "-Catharine Flynn.
Some time in the near future, possibly
as soon as arrangements can be made
without the ken of the Germantown po-
lice, Catharine Flynn and Emily Nc
Nally, who take care of looms in Dob
sons mills, Godfrey and Stetson avenues.
Centerville, will finish their interrupted
prize fight of Thursday night for love
and honor.
There is no doubt about the spirit Of
the girls. Both Emily and Catharine de-
clared yesterday that their fighting blood
is up, and each says that unless the other
retracts certain things about a certain
George" the hundreds of employees of
the mill will be privileged to see gem
uine fight to the finish.
Centerville is stirred from center TO cir
cumference over 1t all, and nothing but
the interrupted battle and the coming
fray were talked about in Dobson's mills
yesterday.
Friends Once, but
Both girls are pretty brunettes Emily
is Is years old and Catharine is year
the mill for several months. Catharine is
an orphan and has been in this city since
the first of the year. Both girls say they
were bosom friends for long time. II
Catharine had piece Of lace or a new
skirt, and Emily wanted it, she was privi-
legged to take the things and welcome
"She certainly looked good to me for
long time, said Emily.
They boarded with a friend in Nara
cnfk efr t.. f1o - %
Centerville, but Emily was taken away
by her mother. and then boarded with a
friend in Stenton avenue near the mill
Previous to the separation Emily and
Catharine both thought George, who is 21
years old and also employed in the mill,
was the candy kid" And it wasn't long
before jealousy Of the green-eyed type put
the relations of the two girls 9on the
fritz
OF course the other girls in the mill
about 700 of them-were just itching to
see Catherine and Emily get still more
jealous. 1t helped pass the time away.
So they told Emily all sorts of bad things
that Catharine had said about her, and
vice versa.
Finally Emily said to Catharine: "see
here. Catharine. you have gone far
enough. George is going to go with me
just as long as I want him. If you don't
shut up I am going to lick you"
Like fun you are'' replied Catharine;
''if 1t comes to fighting l can hold my
end up"
Now Worse Than Ever
"Then meet me at Haines street and
Stenton avenue after the mill closes
Thursday night" replied Emily.
The two-round battle, interrupted by the
police, is history.
Catharine was rather sorry for her part
of the fight when she entered the mill
yesterday. and wanted to make up with
Emily But Emily stuck her tongue out
at Catharine. Then Catharine said 10
Emily, "You hussyl" and 1t was all on
George won't discuss the case. He said
.'Just count me out Of this. That goes.
See?"

Cocoanut Milk for Burns.

THE milk OF a fresh cocoanut liz
the finest remedy on earth for burns"
said Antonio Gilardi of New Orleans.
Several years ago l happened 10 be In
Central America shipping fruit to the
United States. While there first
learned that the socosnut milk was
the very best medicine in case OF bad
burns. In a severe case where the
flesh is so badly burned that it sloughs
away from the bone the cocoanut milk
will relieve the pain and stops the In
dammation- knew many people in
Central America who had used the
milk for burns and pronounced it ex.
eellent."

believe that it is salutary that We
should know definitely and think
much of Kentucky's present edu-
cational standing as compared with
that of the rest of the Union. In
a bulletin issued sometime since
by the United States Bureau of
Education, tables were given
showing the rank of each State ip
per centage of illiteracy of the
population 10 years of age and
over. This is considered a fair
way of estimating popular litter
acy, because it has been found
generally true that person reach
ing 10 years of age without learn:
ing to read or write does not there
after learn to read and write.
Ranked by her foreign white pop
ulatlon, which is of course very
small fraction of her whole popu-
latlon, Kentucky stands in this
list of fifty States and Territories,
twenty eighth from tn top.
Ranked by her colored population
she stands thirty-frst. Ranked by
her whole population, including
colored, foreign white and native
white, she stands forty-second.
Ranked by her native white popu-
latlon alone, she stands forty-third.
In other words when she is de-
prived OF the help given by the
colored population and by the for
elgn white, she stands eighth from
the bottom of the list of City
States and Territories. Georgia,
with her Georgia Crackers, stands
above her; Arizona and Oklahoma
stand above her; Mississippi and
Florida stand above her.-M.

her request for Schubert's "Serenade.
