A HERO IN TOWN
YESTERDAY

A great captain made his appear
ance on Wenatchee avenue yester-
day afternoon. He was not a mem
Der of the United States army, nor a
Fcaptain of industry, but an idolized
hero in the world of sport-Lou Nor
dyke, captain of the baseball club at
Vancouver, B. C.. When his team de-
feated Butte last Saturday, the cham
pionship pennant of the Northwest
ern league was cinched by the Cana
dian city. With victory in his grasp,
and for the first relaxation from the
seasons terrific. struggle, Captain
Nordyke steals away from the scene
of his triumph, where he is the OBJ
ject of all eyes and his plaudits
shouted form thousands of threats.
Hundreds of crazy Vancouver fans
undoubtedly inquired why the i'm
placable Nordyke is not with his
men. When he returns today, they
Will learn that he took a run down
to the Wenatchee Valley to visit his
fruit ranch and look after the sale
OF his apple crop.
Two years ago Nordyke invested
his savings from his professional
baseball salary in a ten-acre piece of
the Henry Grass ranch in the War
rem flats near Cashmere. This was
rather an unusual thing for a profess
sional sportsman to do, and the met
ropolitan press has published many
stories about it. Nordyke is referred

manhood in the baseball world He
saves his money, invests it wisely,
takes care of his health and is an
all-round sensible fellow. At the
close of the season next week, he will
return to his ranch and remain there
for the winter until called back to
his position as first baseman and cap
tain of his team next spring.

The recent formation of The Con- crete Institute in Great Britain di- rects attention anew to the rapid in- crease in the use of concrete, plain and reinforced. Probably it is not too soon already to say that this quarter century marks the beginning of ar age of concrete. It is an age rather than the age, because long before the Christian era an age Of concrete began There was a time not so long ago that superficial thought had it that concrete vas q

Fifteen thousand beds and 6O0,- 900 patients, or 400 consumptives for every bed, is statement made to-day by the National Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis in it's investigation as to the need of beds for destitute con- sumptives in the United States. The most striking fact emphasized by the investigation is that, while the lack of beds for all classes of consump- tives is so manifest throughout tho country, the number of beds needed for advanced cases is far greater than the number needed for all the other stages put together. Of the 15 900 beds al present available for all classes of cOnsumptives, less than 5000 are for advanced cases. Com putting that there are at least 200,- 900 living cases in the advanced stages of tuberculosis in the United
 States at the present time, the need for | large number of additional beds for this most deserving class is evi- dent Dr John s. Billings of the health department of New York city estimates that ahout 50 to 70 per cent of the advanced cases are una bi" to provide for their proper care at home. This means that over 120,- 900 beds in hospitals for advanced cases should be provided. The need for accommodation for advanced eases is further emphasized by the fact that every expert and specialist has agreed on this conclusion. that consumption will never be eradicatod until the advanced eases of the cis- ease are isolated, either in their homes or in institutions. Dr Koch says, Every case of tuberculosis should be isolated as long as bariIIi are there. Dr Arthur Newsh0Ime. one of the best English specialists on tuberculosis. says that the only way in which the death rate from con- sumption can be reduced is by se- gregating all advanced cases, be- cause these are the centers of infec- ton from which the disease spread is.
