MARK BORUCK TALKS.

The San Francisco Spirit Of the
Times has the following under the
head Of "A Popular Subscrip-
ton:
A ten cent subscription is being
taken up in the Sta OF Nevada,
in aid of Mrs.. Pratt, who, for the
purpose of procuring money where
with to support her children, sub.
mitted to the knife OF the surgeon
and gave up forty-five square
inches Of skin from her thighs to
graft upon the leg Of a man who
had been injured in a railroad ac-
cident at Port Costa. She was
unknown to the man for whom
she suffered ain, torture and dis
tigurement, was neither mother,
sister, nor sweetheart. but gave up
her body for an absolute piotance
in parison of the part she
pl - he price Of sacrifice being
on nti bred dollars. We think
all u rcumStances were and
art IL rough and complete dis
gra utilization. Had the same
thing oeen done to Mrs. Pratt. by
"a band OF savages into whose
hands she was unfortunately
captive, the world would have
stood aghast and vengeance
would have been demanded and
would have been wreaked upon
them wherever found. But in
San Francisco, where there are
presumed to be no brutal murder
Gus savage tribes, where the
spires of our churches reaching the
sky, and from the pulpits of which
"Christ cruci6ed," who died to
save the souls of men, is eloquent
ly preached, but not one word
from the same pulpits in regard
to poor Mrs. Pratt and her body
scarified, and with our institutions
of learning and charitable intent,
and the various associations which
disseminate the gospel and dis
pense charity.
The mere fact of Mrs. Pratt's
consent to the butchery practiced
upon her does not palliate the
horrible circumstances in the
least, but on the contrary adds to
the enormi.y of this great out
rage upon humanity. For in that
acquiescence it clearly showed the
helplessness of her condition which
should have been deterrent
and not an incentive 10 the consul
nation OF the cruel and bloody
work
Money is collected here to pur-
chase flannel waistcoats for the
children in Africa; q woman may
come from India, and whine
around until she secures upwards
of seventy thousand in order 10
prevent young girls from marry
ing before they are born, and
dozen other Ridiculous things of
like nature done, involving a large
expenditure of money. But when
it comes down to a deserving and
estimable American woman and
mother in order to keep her chill
dren from starving she is COM
PEELED to undergo the smurderous
and savage infiiction to which
Mrs. Pratt was subjected. San
Franciscans are constantly boast
in- of what they have done, what
they are doing, and what they viii
do t. make their city known ut
home and abroad; and in the
case OF Mrs. Pratt they have toll
Grated an act that will cause the
name OF San Franciscan to be
execrated wherever full knowl-
edge Of the facts become known.
