CRIPPLED FOR LIFE.
Terrible Accident to Lad Of
Fourteen.

On the desk, near the entrance Of the Re-
ceiving Hospital, lies a large double slate.
Even the police ledger, down IN the City
Prison, but a few steps away, bears no sad
der records Of human suffering and misery
than does the hospital slate. A single line
only too frequently tells a story of the
brightest hopes wasted. Many a human
being is brought into the hospital only 10
leave it a hopeless cripple for life, despite
the best efforts Of the able staff OF surgeons
constantly in attendance.
Yesterday one of these sad records was
made on the slate. 1t read: Martin Kerns,
boy, 1922 Shipey street Extensive lacera-
ti0nS Of both hands. Amputated all fingers
of left hand amputated ring and little finger
of right hand. Left Stumps Of both hands.
Wrists ana arms wrenched and bruised"
This record meant that young Kerns is a
HELPLESS cripple for life, and can only exist
by the charity of the world.
BE is, or was, hard-working lad Of
about Il, and made his own living as press
boy at the factory Of the Bowers Rubber
Company, 400 Market street. While feeding
sheets OF rubber yesterday afternoon to two
heavy rollers both his hands we're caught be-
tween them, and he received the above
frightful injuries Every despatch was used
in taking him to the Receiving Hospital,
and quickly the Police Surgeon, DR.
Williams, aided by DrS. Enright, Berry
and O'Brien, were giving him their best at
tentiOn. The mutilations of the hands were
so terrible that amputati0n Of the crushed
fingers was the only course left
When informed that his fingers could not
be saved the poor boy was heart broken.
" You had better kill me at once. doctor.
Please kill me- I'm useless for life, useless
for life. Bow can [ work with only the
stumps Of my hands left? For Gods sake
put me out OF my misery" mOaned the un-
fortunate lad. Soon the chlOrOform lulled
him 10 sleep, and while he lay insensible to
pain the amputatons were performed lie
was then placed in cot in the hospital and
given every care. When he recovered some
what from the shock he asked If anybody
had been to see him, and was heart broken
when told no" About 9 o'clock his
brother came in, and 70 him the boy again
freely lamented his sad loss.
KerHs lost his mother some time ago and
lives with his steDmotheT and father at 1905
Shinley street. The boys case Is one that
fully appeals to the utmost sympathics of
the charitable. The Police Surgeons con-
slider it one oil the saddest that has come un-
der their notice for MANY a day.

the alarm boxes is recommended to prevent
so many false alarms. that are always more
or less expensive
An urgent request is made for 20 600 feet

sufficient numbers to protect all property.
Before the matter is finally disposed of
the Commissioners ask for hearing before
the full board that they may have fair

Their Stop at Lathrop VIII Send Them
Back to China.
Tam Gee and Tam Yue are two especially
unlacky ceIestials if what they say, added
to their present position. is true. Accord
ing to their statement they LETT this city, en-
route for Havana, on Sunday last. They
left the train at Lathrop to get something to
eat, and in turn the train left them when it
resumed its route. Under the circum-
stances they remained in Lathrop. Their
stay there became known to the Chinese
Consul here, All Young King, who sent
Special Officer Miller Of the Consulate to
LathroD to bring them to this city. After
the Tams had spoken to the Consul on their
return, they were by his orders locked up
in the City Prison and booked en- route to
China.
The Chinese Consul evidently thought
their story about being left by the train at
Lathrop a little gauzy, and may possibly
have concluded that they did not purpose
going on to Havana, but had made up their
minds to stay In California.

The Indictment Is valid.

The motion to quash the indictment
against Charles Seshmann has been denied
by Judge Trout. Sethmann was charged
with arson by the late Grand Jury, and the
motion to Quash was based on the fact
that Samuel Partridge, one of the jurors,
was nonresident. The Judge holds that
Partrldge's nOn-residence does not irvali-
date the indictment, because twelve jther
Jurors participated in the finding.
