Mayor Bingham on Tuesday,
August 18th, peremptorily remoy-
ed Julius G. Vogt as superinten-

Mayor Bingham issued a state
ment that no matter what hap
pened politically or otherwise he
would give all of his time and en-
ergy to remedy the terrible condi-
tions which exist at the City Hos

At noon Mayor Bingham receiy-
ed report from the committee of
physicians appointed by the Jeffer-
son County Medical Association to
examine the City Hospital. This
committee consisted of three of the
foremost physicians of Louisville.
They made q thorough examina-
ton; the conditions boggar de-
scrlption and say they can only be
compared to the prisons of bar

the wards and departments are in
"A frightful condition. The condi-

they were charged to be Il wear
ago, when Paul Barth's Board of
Safety forced DIR. Jouett Menefee
to resign as inferno because he
tried to remedy the frightful CON

After receiving the report ofthc
physicians Mayor Bingham said:
i received that report today.

Mr.. POSTMASTER and Gentlemen:
This is very happy occasion

have listened with a great deal of
pleasure to the remarks of gentle
men who have just preceded me.
You have asked me to respond to
a subject that should appeal to the
heart of every Southerner and l
should have declined had it not
been that my loyalty and zeal to
such charming and respondent
characters babe me arise TO the oc-
casion, however humble my

yet been found that equaled that

Girls" For as nature has given
sublimity unto the beautiful violet
and majesty unto the snow-capped
peak, 50 too upon her, nature has
smiled, leaving crimson hue upon
the dainty cheek and twinkle in
the loving eye. Her presence
lends enchantment and a charm in
every land and every cline, wheth-
err summed at the tropics or chilled
at the pole. The Southern Girl
has temper easily rufiied, but Il
spirit of forgiveness far greater:
always of the happiest and sunni
est disposition with a smile for
every friend, nevertheless con-

filled with animation and vivacity,
always raptured with the world.
Through her lifely voyage, when
eager winds are kissing every sail,
whether in mid-ocean or amid the
breakers of the farther shore, she
is ever seeking IA blessing to be-
stow, a burden to share; unselish
in all things and at all times.
Some may not see the superiority,
the advantage she may have, or
notice that she alone can entertain

A message has just been re-
ceived by Professor Elton Full

Department of Agriculture, and
was issued by order Of the secre-
tary of agriculture. There are
eight members Of the commits
sion, Professor Fulmer being
the only member west of the
Mississippi river.
1t is understood that the prin-
cipal work of the commission at
the coming meeting, will be the
consideration, and quite likely
the adoption of definite measures
in the matter Of food preserva-
tives. The pure food law, as it
existed up to January LIST, dele
gated no especial authority to
the national commission, simply
making illegal the use of "un-
wholesome" preservatives. This
fact has, in the past, hampered
the commission in its work, and
also, the available amount of
literature and experimentation
on the subject did not justify
drastic measures. However, the
new law which became effective
January LIST, last will enable the
national commission to take def
mite action.
The personalities which are
most commonly used, which

the commission, has Investigate
