CERTIFICATES OF DEATH.
Complaint Against officers of the CITY
and County Hospital.


and County Hospital.
A complaint was lodged at the Health
Office yesterday in relation to practice
at the County Hospital. 1t appears that
Joseph Moran, who had been drinking
too much, was sent TO the Home for
the Care OF InebrlateS, but there he be-
came so Ill that he was transferred to the
City and County Hospital, and there he
died.
Moran was member of Myrtle Lodge.
A o. U. W., beneficiary organization that
pays the sum of $1,000 TO the party or parties
named by member, who shall receive this
sum after his death.
Moran left widow and four orphans.
and before she could file an application for
the money she is entitled to receive it be-
came necessary to present proof of death.
This proof is the certificate of the attending
physician.
She made application through Michael
Farrell for such certificate, and when it
was filled out by DIR. j. l.. Milton he de-
manded the sum Of So for it. Farrell psid
the money, but not without murmur. for
he believed the charge to be outrageous.
ana then reported the matter at the Health
Office.
Health Officer Keeney lost no time in
hoidlng long-distance interview with DR..
Milton by telephone, and asked him by
what authority he had charged for the GER
tiheate. The reply was that he was acting
under the authority Of DR.. j. Z. lie Fevre
who is the superintendent of the bospitaI
and who advised him to make the demand
DR.. Milton stated further that it was the
hrst time that he had ever charged for such
service, but that IL was customary to exact
Ike amount for certificates of death.
Dr. keeney informed DR.. Milton in the
most emphatic manner that no one at the
hospltal had a right to charge for issuing
certificates.
Dr. Regensburger added that DIR. Milton
should return the So 10 Widow Moran and
not waste any time in doing so.

ITALIAN COLONY TROUBLES.
A New Benevolent Society Threatened
by the MnIcnnfania.

New Benevolent Society Threatened
by the Malconteuts.
There are prospects Of lively times ahead
Tor the Italian colony. The druggists and
physicians warfare. which so nearly rent
the Italian Benevolent Society In twain, is
Ike Banquo's ghost-it will not down.
Some months ago ID. C. Rossi and Joseph
Calegaris, both druggists. engaged In a
lively dispute over the favoritism that was
shown by the Italian Benevolent Society
toward Calegaris' establishment The dis
cussiOn was of virulent kind, and soon
several physicians were involved. II did
not take long before the laity joined issues,
and disSensl0n ran riot. The row was
transferred TO the courts in the shape of q
libel suit. R0ssi lost, and the warfare and
strife was temporarily abated.
Wearing his laurels of victory Calegaris
went to Italy, where he now is. for short
sojourn.
The same old strife has bobbed up again,
and II takes the form OF a new organization,
styled by its projectors as the True Benevo-
lent Society. This name alone is regarded
by the adherents of the old society as a
direct stab at them, and they look upon it
as an insult.
The new organization is fathered by d. c.
Rossi and DR.. Per0one, who have received
the c0-Operatio of others in their profess
sion who feel tn at they have been discrim-
mated against by the old organization.

Thrown From Their Buggy.

George KedOn and Edward Tracy met
with serious accident while out driving
last night shortly after 10 o'clock. as a re-
suit of which both men were taken to the
Receiving Hospital for treatment. .
Kedon and his companion were driving
along Howard street, and when near the
corner of Ninth the horse suddenly slipped
on the cable-ear track and fell. The sudden
stop preciptated both men over the dash
board Of the buggy. Kedon struck head
hrst on the cobbIes and is thought to nave
sustained fracture of the skull, while
Tracy is suffering from a badly confused
thigh.
Policeman Clifford caught the pluncIne
horse before 1t could do any further damage
and removed the injured men to the hos
pltal, where, after their injuries we're
dressed by DIR. Deane, they were tucked

PROVING AN ALIBI.
The Prosecution Had a Case That Wa.
Badly Crippled.


fAnkec kiade.
1t was case of chicken stealing, and the
prints OF bare feet were found in the sand
round the henhOuse. The LAWYER for the
prosecution was one who. If he had been
Napoleon Bonaparte, never would have
crossed the Alps; he would simply have
pulled them up by the roots and thrown
them over the paling. The prisoner was
an unknown tramp.
You saw you don't know anything about
this tbett?' quered the lawyer, fercely.
TnarS what L swOre TO, sir" replied the
tramp meekly.
'You were in the back yard of Mrs.
Slamtipp's house about supper time?''
"Yes, SIR
"Yoa know the position of the hem
house?"
"Yes, sir"
"You were seen on the road In front of
the house some time after dark?"
II was there, sir"
'.YOu were in the yard after darkp"
"Yes, sir, and after supper also sir re-
piled the prisoner, with q wan smile at his
innocent little joke in such a place
ana you were seen by the cook sitting
on the doorstep with your shoe off ?"
Yes, sir; there was q pebble in IL that
was too big TO get out Of the hole it got
in at"
"Now, cir, am going to prove that vou
made those tracks with your bare feet while
you. were stealing the chickens Of the plain
tiff"
"You. can't do 1t, sir" said the prisoner
mildly but firmly.
"And why not, pray?" asked the prose-
cutor with firm sarcasm.
Because, sir, I've got a wooden leg. sir"
and he gave Ii a kick that sent it clean across
Inc courtroom and almost knocked consta-
BILE senseless.
