INTEREST IN ROAD
GROWS HERE and
a SEVERAL ATTEND
Several Maysvllle People Win Go N
Manchester Monday Evening to
Lend Aid to River Route for
National Highway.

Much interest has developed In
Maysville during the past few days in
the concerted effort to be made by rep
resentatives Of river towns to per-
suade the powers that be to keep the
trans-continental highway to be built
through Ohio, along the river route as
at first proposed.
Because Of this keen interest Of city
and county authorities and local busi-
ness men, 1t is expected that there will
be a,number Of local people motor to
Manchester on next Monday evening
to attend a meeting to be held there
under the auspices Of the Manchester
Business Mems Club in the interest Of
the route.
b It is also expected that number OF
Maysville people will go to Cincinnati
on September 10th to attend the big
state meeting to be held there by Ohio
road enthusiasts.
Local members Of the Cincinnati
automobile club, and there are several,
will use their influence through the
club to have the road routed through
Aberdeen and these members will
probably petition the club to lend the
Aberdeen route their support. The
support Of such an organization as the
Cincinnati Automobile Club could help
wonderfully in keeping the route
through Ripley, Aberdeen, Manchester
and thence to Portsmouth.

SENSATIONAL ELOPEMENT.

The Flemingsburg Times-Democrat
says:
We learn that there was rather
sensational elopement from German
town Saturday. One Of our young So
ciety gentlemen had accompanied Miss
Helen Foxworthy and a girl friend
both Of Mt. Carmel, to Germantown,
and some time in the day a rival suit
or for Miss Helen's hand and heart,
one Mr.. Wright, of Lewis county, per-
suaded her to elope to Ohio and get
married, and which they did. When
the shades of evening drew on, the
young escort made desperate search
for his fair companion but was finally
made wise to what had happened and
escorted the girl friend to her home
with perhaps mingled emotions Of sor-
row and anger. Don't ask Raleigh Lee
anything about It.

ACTIVITY Of HEALTH De.
PARTMEAT LAST MONTH
County Health Department very Active
During Month Of August,
Report Shows.

DR.. V. d. Guittard, County Health
Officer issues this statement:
A brief summary Of some Of the ac4
tHities of the Health Department for
the month Of August Is given below:
Communicable diseases reported by
physicians Of the city and county to
the Mason County Health Department:
Diphtheria, 2; scarlet fever, 2; typhoid
fever, Z.
Reported In corresponding month OF
previous year: Diphtheria, 2; scarlet
fever, /; typhoid fever, 0.
Laboratory examinations. Drinking
water, 49, typhoid fever, 6; diphtheria,
IA; tuberculosis, Z; pneumonia, /. To-
tai laboratory examinations, AZ.
Number Of defects in school children
found to be remedied, 1885, newspaper
articles published, 33; city visits by
members of staff, 593; county visits
by members of STAFF, 76S; number cur
ative treatments given in the venereal
clinic, 22.
Number Kentucky sanitary tanks
built during month, 4; number repair
ed, 25; nuisances abated, 81; number
cases quarantined, s.
II
Public health nursing: Number Wis
Its to cases of communicable diseases
A; number talks given to groups OF
persons, s; number visits to give pre-.
natal care, 2; number visits to explain
and demonstrate infant hygiene. 10;
number homes surveyed, 56.
That part of the report showing @
marked Increase in the typhoid fever
rate over last year merits special com.
ment.
This greater occurrence of typhoid
can be ascribed to the drought ant
consequent lowering of all the sources
of water supply. This lessened supply
is more concentrated in respect to any
contamination 1t may contain. Every
case reported this month was water
borne and could have been prevented
by drinking only boiled water. Every
source of drinking water in the county
should be analyzed and proper pre-.
cautions taken If 1t is found to be con
| taminated.

pending execution Of the judgment for
sixty days. Judge B. j. Bethurum, who
presided at the trial ordered Bailey
taken to the Boyle county Jail at DAN
Vile for safe-keeping.
Comparatively few persons in Mt
Vernon knew that the jury had
reached verdict and when after a
time the sheriff announced that de-
cision had been reached, Judge BETH
rurm ordered the courtroom doors
closed and all persons not then in the
room excluded. Soldiers, who have
been on guard throughout the day
were stationed about the room in or.
der to prevent any demonstration
when the verdict was read.
Bailey took the verdict calmly, dis
playing no sign of his thoughts as the
verdict was read. He calmly watched
his attorneys as they asked that the
jury be polled and made the usual mo-
tions.
Bailey was taken to Danville undel

then are expected to proceed to CAM
