Appoints Woman Health Officer.
Special to Independent.
Little Rock, April 11. —
Though it took some head
scratching and deep thinking be
fore it was accomplished, Mayor
H. M. Jackson of Paragould was
Thursday afternoon advised by
Gov. Futrell, at the advice of At
torney General Moose to ap
point Olive Wilson, M. D., as
health officer of that city.
The last legislature, in its
health bill, provided for the ap
pointment of a health officer for
every town and city in the state.
The bill specified that the health
officer might be male or female,
black or white. The constitu
tion states that only qualified
electors may be elected or ap
pointed to office. Attorney Gen
eral Moose decided that the
health officer was not contem
plated under the Constitution,
and he volunteered to take the
legal responsibility of the ap
pointment of Dr. Olive Wilson.
Acting Governor Futrell then
telegraphed Mayor Jackson to
proceed with the appointment,
and Paragould will have the first
woman official in Arkansas.
Cost Morgan $60,000 to do
Right.
In 1904 the late J. Pierpont
Morgan was decorated with the
insignia of Knight of the Crown
of Italy as a testimonial of grat
itude of the Italian nation for
the Scolicope. The cope of Asco
li, a richly ornamented church
vestment, is a wonderful work
of art, and for that reason, as
well as its antiquity, had great
value. It is a semi-circular gar
ment ten feet long by ten and
one-half feet wide, divided into
twenty oval panels on which are
depicted scenes from the life of
Christ. It was given to the
town of Ascoli in 1228, and was
stolen in 1902. A couple of
years later it was discovered in
a London museum labeled as the
property of an American col
lector. The collector was J. P.
Morgan, who, as soon as he dis
covered that it was stolen prop
erty, returned it to the church
to which it belonged. He had
paid $60,000 for the garment.
Mr. Morgan in his zeal for col
lecting works of art, was very
frequently “stuck” by unscrupu
lous persons who worked off on
him imitations of rare specimens
at enormous figures.—Fort
Smith Times Record.
