EVIDENCE IN GINGER
Case GROWS INTERESTING
Ripley Men Said to Be Implicated In
Investigation Being Made By Chief
Ort Into Ginger Sale By Col.
Ored Men Here.

The investigation being pushed by
Chief of Police Harry A. Ort into the
organized sale of ginger by certain
local colored men is. developing some
most interesting facts, local officials
said today.
Some two or three other colored
men have been questioned by Chief Ort
and from each of these men he has
obtained affidavits which are said to
contain most interesting information.
Aside from complete exposure of the
organization for the sale of ginger for
intoxicants which was headed by Ed.
Barlow, who is under arrest, it has de-
veloped that Barlow and otohers oper-
ated gambling place at Barlows
house in Cherry alley in which a reg
ular take-out was given Barlow and
both white and colored men entered
the game.
Evidence thus collected implicated 6
couple of Ripley merchants who are
said to have ben selling the ginger tt
various men who went to Ripley t
deliver it to Barlow here. All of thes,
facts, Chief Ort says, will be turned
over to the Federal authorities.

DODGE PRICES UNCHANGED.

Official confirmation of press dis
patches from Detroit announcing that
there would be no reduction in the
prices of Dodge Brothers motor cars,
has been received by McIlvain &
Thompson. the Dodge Brothers dealer
in this city. A telegram from G.. W.
Matheson, acting general sales man
ager, to the local dealer reads:
Dodge Bros. policy has ever been
to give full value for the price asked.
There will be no reduction in the pres
ent price of Dodge Bros motor cars,
newspaper reports to the contrary are
absolutely untrue"
Dodge Bros. announcement was no
surprise to u.s." said Mr.. Thompson,
I'm fact it is only substantiation of
Dodge Bros. principles. AT no time
have they ever demanded an excess
amount for their product. AS in The
past, they will continue in the future
to demand fair return for their eff
forts "The mere fact that the de-
mand for Dodge Brothers motor cars
is still greater than the supply, de-
spite the great expansion program at
the factory, has absolutely nothing to
do with the decision to continue the
present prices. In marketing their car
Dodge Brothers have never made a
point Of price and will never sacrifice
the quality of their product to enter
price competition

COOPERATION OF PARENTS
SOUGHT BY HEALTH OGF|CER
DIR. Reynolds Urges Parents to Call
Physicians mt Illness Of Children
To Help Stop Epidemics.

DR.. Frank Reynolds, Mason County
Health Officer, today issued an appeal
to the parents of school children in
the city asking that they take no
chances on the illness of their chill
dren.
DR.. Reynolds pointed out that both
measler and scarlet fever had develop
ed into epidemics in Maysville and
Mason county. He said the diseases
were in such mild form that the chill
dren were not made violently i'll anl
that in many cases the parents had
not seen fit to call in their family ply
sician. These children nevertheless
have the disease and go about the
neighborhood spreading the disease to
other children who may develop the
disease in more serious form.
The Health officer, in view of these
facts, urges upon all parents to call
their family physician as soon as their
children become Ill and keep them
from school until it is learned whether
or not they have the light form OF
either of these diseases. If the child
has either measles or scarlet fever, the
family physician will promptly report
it to the Health officer and quaran-
tine will be established. In this way
only, DR.. Reynolds sets out, will the
present epidemic be stopped.

FIRE PREVENTION
DAY IS OBSERVED
7 THROUGHOUT STATE
Maysyille Joins With All Cities In
Kentucky In Observing Fire Pre-.
ventiOn Day TOday-Yards and
Outbuildings Cleaned Up.
Today is Fire Prevention Day.

Today is Fire Prevention Day.
President Wilson called upon the
whole nation to observe the day and
Governor Morrow called on the whole
of the state of Kentucky to observe the
day. Immediately following those
proclamations, Mayor Russell issued a
proclamation asking all the good citi-
zens of Maysville to observe the day
by cleaning up their premises and
learning more about the fire depart
ment and its workings.
Fire Chief Ruliff Newell issued a
statement few days ago explaining
the origin of Fire Prevention Day and
why It was observed over the nation.
His interesting statement has created
much interest in the day and there has
been much cleaning-up in Maysville.
While the day is something new to
Maysvillians, there has been enough
interest in its observation shown to
assure the future success Of the day In
years to come.
Every parent should take time some-
time today to explain to their children
the location of the nearest fire alarm
box and Its number. Ask the child
about the alarm box every few weeks
30 as to keep Its location and Its num-
ber in the child's mind,
The fire department will likely make
an inspection of the city during next
week and where q cleaning up of sum-
mer rubbish is necessary will likely
issue orders to that effect so that
Maysville will enter upon the fall and
winter months with all Spring and
Summer accumulations Of rubbish out
of the way.
