A DISGRACEFUL DOCTOR.
A WELL-KNowN PHYSICIAN WHO
DESERVES PUNISHMENT.
An Aged Doctor who Grossly Insults
His Women Patiens-His Last
Victim Married
Woman.

There adorns the entrance of build
in this city the sign Of physician who
should have his certificate cancelled for
unprofessional conduct.
1t appears that about 10 days ago a
married woman, the wife of a we'll
known business man. who resides in the
same building with the doctor, was sud-
denly taken i'll and required immediate
medical treatment, and che visited the
physician's offices.
On the evening of the day of the visit
the husband, on returning to his home,
found his wife IN most excited frame
of mind She stated that ehe had called
upon the physician referred to, but felt
considerable worse and positively de-
clined to take the medicine prescribed
by him. The queer conduct of the wife
made the thus band sthink something of
an unusual nature had occurred, but the
sick woman xonld not give any ex-
planation of her strange actions.
On Friday last the lady in question
was attacked by another sudden illness,
which necessitated the immediate pres
ence of physician, and, much against
her desire, was compelled to call in the
same doctor. He WIS in her apart
ments but few minutes when the in
valid woman was compelled to order
him out OF her room on account of his
ineulting proposals and advancements.
He did not attempt TO leave the room
until she threatened to call for
help. This second gross insult
was too much to be kept q
secret. and on the arrival of her husband
Friday night she informed him of the
reason for her queer conduct after visit
ing the doctor the first time and also his
disgraceful and unprofessional actions
on Friday afternoon. The invalid wife,
knowing the temper of her husband,
who would resent the insults, was afraid
to mention the fret dastardly attempt of
the physician, and not until ne
endeavored to take advantage Of the
suffering woman the second occasion,
did che make known her suffering.
The infuriated husband, on hearing
the tale OF his wife, was Immediately on
the war path, and all day Saturday the
doctor made himself conspicuous by his
absence. In some way he had received
notice that a good thrashing was in
store for him if ne appeared at his Office.
The meeting no doubt would have been
disastrous one for the aged doctor
who is married man, and the father of
grown-up children. 1t seems it is not
his fret attempt at such vile assaults
upon unprotected and sickly women who
are his patients.
sometime since the mother of we'll
known young business man of this city
was also grossly insulted by the same
doctor. At that time the son would
probably have laid the amorous doctor
up for repairs tor awhile if it had not
been for the pleadings of his mother,
who did not wish any publicity in the
matter. This doctor went immediately
to the insulted woman and apologized,
to save himself.

THE SUPREME COURT.
A CASE DECIDED ABOUT THE BTU
MINOUs ROCK COMPANY.
Mr.. Meyer Greenburg Loses His Case,
Some Interesting Law Points
Brought Out in the
Decision.

An opinion by the supreme court in
the ease of Meyer Greenberg, respond
ent, vs.. California Bituminous Rock
company, appellants, was received yes
terday by Deputy Clerk Sesnon.
The action was to recover Judgment
for $4,000, the purchase price of land
conveyed by the plaintiff to the de-
fendant, and to enforce vendors lien
and the appeal was from the judgment
and order denying new trial.
@. B. Johnson in the lower court filed
a complaint in intervention, and claimed
that the plaintiff held the property in
part as trustee for him and L. M. War
den; that the interest of the intervenol
was one-fourth of the property. He
denied that the purchase price of the
land was $25 900, but AYERS that the de-
fendant, corporation, as consideration
for the transfer was to deliver 1850
shares OF its capital stock, being the en-
tire capital stock that 800 shares each
were to 90 to plaintiff, Warden and In
tervenor johnson and one Uuderhill,
and 30 shares to Erneet Graves. Also,
that the defendant never delivered any
of the shares or other consideration,
and that no security was given. The
intervenor prayed that if it should ap-
pear that the sum of $25 900 was
the consideration, that a decree
be uttered in favor of the plaintiff, and
that if it appeared that the stock was to
be delivered, decree of foreclosure
be entered in favor of the plaintiff, and
that in either case the intervenor's in
terest be established to the extent OF his
interest in the land.
In the opinion it is stated that the
complaint of Intervention was served
upon the defendant and plaintiff. the
former making default that the plaintiff
denied all the allegations and his COM
plant was dismissed; that the cause
was tried by the court, and written find
ings filed, upon which Judgment was en-
tered; that at the date of the sale of the
land to defendant, the plaintiff held one
fourth of the property in trust for the
intervenor and that the latter, upon the
payment of one-third of the amount due
on promissory note for $2,9S7.60, exc
cuted by Plaintiff Greenberg, L. M.
Warden and the intervenor, would be
entitled to have 800 shares of the stock
issued to him by the defendant.
The court holds that the judgment
and order appealed from were erroneous
in that the defendant, being in default,
the intervenor was entitled to a decree
of foreclosure as prayed for. Hence the
Judgment and order are reversed with
leave to the intervenor and plaintiff to
amend their pleadings.
