not know where Giuseppe liz now
Marry me and I will hang diamonds
round your neck"
Poor little Minetta, . helpless and
hopeless. fell an easy victim TO
Blanco. It must be admitted. though,
that he was deeply infatuated with
her girlish beauty. So they were mar.
ried and lived happily three months.
And then-Giuseppe came back.
Blanco had taken advantage of the
raw youths ignorance to have him
shanghaied aboard Chesapeake oys-
terman. He had thought the life
would kill him; instead Of which he
had grown strong. He came back to
hnd Blanco married to Minetta.
Pooh. that is nothing!" Blanco said
airily. Il thought you had run away.
1t was for your sake l married her.
Listen. Giuseppe, want an assistant
again. Stay with me and | will give
you ten dollars weekly"
This seemed fortune to Giuseppe.
And he would have worked for moth.
ing to be within sight of his beloved
Minetta. He felt dimly that the day
might arrive when he could help her.
Blanco had laughed quietly at his
triumph. He felt sure that his cum.
ming act. showing Minetta how he
despised her former sweetheart. would
make her despiss him too. But Minet.
Ia did not despiss Giuseppe.
Bisnco. watching them. saw that
the old love was only dormant. He
knew that. though she would not have
dared let herself ackno Wedge n.
Minetta still loved Giuseppe. He
dared not send him away, for hs
wanted to have him In his SIGHT con.
stantly.
He had tried In various wsys to
kill him. Once he teassd Nero ana
sent Giuseppe into his cage. But

The law creating the Kentucky Tu-
berculosis Commission at the last leg
islature provides also a plan for the
building Of small hospitals throughout
the state for the proper treatment OF
tuberculosis. The plan in brief is as
follows: The Fiscal Court of any
county may declare that county a dis
trict for the purpose Of building a hos
pital. Or. by petition, the question
may be submitted to a vote OF the peo-
Pile at any regular election. and. IL
carried. 1t Is then the duty Of the Fis-
cal Court to declare the county a dis
trict Any, group of counties touching
one another may declare themselves
single district for this purpose by
vote at any general election which
carries in each of the counties in
volved. Then. under certain restric-
tious in the law. the State Commission
names a considerable group of citi-
zens. men and women. of the county
or counties involved. from which
group the judges of these counties
name a District Board Of tuberculosis
Hospital Trustees. This Board then
asks of the Fiscal Court funds to be
raised In the regular levy Of taxes.
From these funds a site is selected.

DISPENSARIES!

A free dispensary Is a place kept
open certain hours Of the week with
a doctor and generally a nurse In at
tendance for the free examination of
those who need it's service. People of
means ought to go to their physicia ians
and pay the regular fee for such serv.
ice. Inasmuch as physicians always
render their services free to the needy
anyway. they generally favor the dis.
pensary as saving time. Sometimes
these dispensaries. or clinics. are held
tor all diseases and sometimes
for especial classes Of disease. such as
tuberculosis. or hook worm. or dis.
eases OF the sye. or nose and throat.
Such a dispeEsary is an advantage 10
the whole community. The needy feel
less hesitation about going there when
i'll than about calling a physician; con.
sequently maladies are often more
quickly diagnosed and put under con.
troll. and the contagious diseases are
then prevented from spreading. Espe-
cially in the case Of consumption, Il is
easier to get an examination OF the
children Of the family in dispensary
than 1t Is at home. The accurate in
formation which can be better secured
and tabulated In a dispensary than
elsewhere Is Of great service in any
general campaign for public health.
A free dispensary can be cheaply start
ed and maintained, because physicians
are always willing to give an hour or
two a week Of their time to that work
Are you ready to give little of your
money for IL in case one is started In
your community?

You See, It's This Way
By ED w. SMITH, CARS Eastern Fight Expert

Our own Fielder Jones, perhaps
as brainy q player and manager
as ever argued with an umpire,
also went away from here when
he was real good. and also our
own Jake Stahl stepped down and
out. but there is the excuse of
bad legs in the iatter's case.
n o 1T may be seen that NO mat
ter how much money they get
and accumulate they always
stick till the call Of the minor
league sounds brassy in their ear
Then they may decline to hear il
and seek other fields. But ii
surely seems as If 1t was "once a
ball player always ball player"
until there isn't a leg left to
start to first base on.
\ r
TOE sHUGRUE. the eastern
lightweight, and his manager,
y Tommy Lee, who have been
campaigning In Colorado along
with frankie Burns of Joisey for
some time now, passed through
the city yesterday on their way
home. They report little pros
perity for the battlers in Denver.
where something seems to be the
matter with the boxing game.
They can not explain exactly
what 1t Is. Shugrue boxed Dick
Hyland out there and claims to
have had all the better of the
battle, which was called a draw.
Shugrue waited out there for
Charley White to appear. but the
latter elected to take the wolgast
match In Milwaukee instead, that
financial way. to say nothing of
the chance he has to make a
powerful reputation by besting
the Cadillac man. which he con-
fidently expects to do.
4 CORRESPONDENT over I'm
~ Michigan writes to ask us
something about the knock
down that Jack johnson received
In his battle with Stanley Ketchel.
It appears that they are betting
on II over there. Perhaps the less
said about this little side issue to
that one sided affair would be the
better. There was a knockdown
In the final round-the twelfth
and 1t was scored by Ketchel, who
hattened the big black. But the
latter was up so quickly and then
Knocked Ketchel down and out so
rapidly that suspicion was created
at once that the Johnson knock
down was framed merely to make
the moving pictures of the battle
little better to look at It. At
least. that was the gossip at the
time. Ketchel never had look in
with Johnson.
