During the past fiscal | year Mrs. Jacobs handied $4.63150 in | s that went to the support of families that might otherwise have been jens upon the county. ‘The method now employed is, when a destitute family is discovered, to make an investigation as to who is responsi- ble. In a greater number of these cases it i8 found that the condition is due to desertion of hjs family by a hus- band who has since contributed nothing | toward their support.

BELGIAN IS THREAT IN BALLOON RACE nett Cup Events and Holds Orizaal Trophy. By the Associated Press. | CLEVELAND, August 20.—If Uncle Sam's string of four consecutive vic- tories in the international Gordon Ben- nett balloon race is stopped, Capt. Ernest de Muyter of Belgium is looked | upon as the most likely contender to | & do it. De Muyter, who arrived in Cleveland yesterday to prepare for the start of the race Monday as the climax of a two-day aerial carnival, is consider- ably more experienced in the lighter- n-air classic than any of his rivals. He has flown in every race since 1912, has won four times and is the holder of the original trophy. Only Ward T. Van Orman of Akron, Ohio, who last | year gave the United States the first leg on the third award, has won more than once. Capt. Frank M.
