A Persian Dancing GIRL

A Persian Dancing GIRL
Jasmines tangled in her hair
Ebon hair that loosely hangs,
Looped with silver surpent fangs
Swaying in the scented air.
Silken sandals on her feet
Tiny feet that trip in time
To the tambourine, the rhyme
With the tinkling music sweet.
On her olive-tinted breast,
Turquoise trinklets, jewels, rings
Lovers tokens-gifts from kings,
Jingle gayly, never rest.
Now she gives dizzy twirl
To the measure of the dance
Quicker than stolen glance,
Glides the. dainty, graceful girl.
Just beyond the eager throng
Lazily her lover smokes
With his rivals, telling jokes.
Spiced with strains of Persian song.
Idly waiting-well he knows
How they hate him, every one,
In the garden of the sun
He has picked the fairest rose.

 A. C. Kingsley presents this demand on the County of Santa Cruz for the sum of 309.50 for account of indigent sick of santa Cruz County as per con- tract and as per items which are hereto annexed.
 Subscribed and sworn to this 2nd day of July, 1908 '
 This bill was allowed for $234.50. The $7500 bill could not be paid on account of an injunction
 You will observe that the St. Joseph's Hospital are being paid the same as if they had received the contract and only have to furnish board and lodging whereas they agreed not only to furnish board and lodging but medical attend ance, medicines, etc, as we'll. Naturally they should be pleased that they did not receive the contract Their bill of $l27 50 plus the bill of $500 for night nurse is all the county would have had to pay had the supervisors accepted the Sisters bid. Hence it is not difficult to see that the Board of Supervisors wasted for the one month of June $99 % of the peoples money without any excuse or argument therefor
 A petition was presented to the Board asking them to reconsider the matter, but there were but few people asked to sign it, for the reason that it was not thought it would have any influence on them but it will serve as basis for an appeal to the District Court in case the Public Examiner takes no notice of the matter.
