Poor Little Carrie Wickersham De-
serted by Her Parents-How

- f, Wrecked.

Tho Wickersnam family was again
brought into notice yesterday BY the
exsmin alton in the superior court Of
Carrie, the 15year-old daughter of
James III. Wickersham. on a charge Of
insanity. About the time the feeble
minded little girl was being examined,
the mother. Carrie A., applied for a
divorce from her husband.
Several days ago the father OF the
girl removed her to the lodging house.
82S1a East Third street, where he said
he would pay her board. The poor girl
is partially paralyzed. and should receive
the best of treatment; she also exhibits
strong traits OF fee BILE mindedness.
The father. after leaving his daughter
there. failed to return, and his where
abouts 10 unknown. Carrie became
worse yesterday and had to be strapped
to q chair to keep her from doing injury
to herself and others. The lsndlady
telephoned the facts to the police sta
ton and Officer Bates went to investi
gate. He found the girl suffering
severely, and she had the appearance of
person afflicted with hydrophobia.
She would bite and SOAP like dog, and
her condition became alarming.
In the afternoon O complaint was
sworn to charging her with insanity,
and the examination took place in Judge
Smiths court. 1t was decided to send
the girl to the home for feeble minded
children. pending which she is being
treated at the county hospital.

AN UNBIASED RUMoR.

A Story Growing Out of the Govern
msnt's Delay.
A rumor was going the rounds yester-
day to the effect that ex-United States
Marshal Gard was short in his accounts
with the government.
The story grew out of the fact that the
government has failed to appropriate
the necessary funds to conduct the fed
eral department.. Marshal Covarrubias
took office the other day without any
government money with which to con-
duct it, and the fact was commented
upon by United States Attorney George
Denis before Judge Rose.
Since there were no funds Marshal
Gard had to issue certificates to those
who did work for Uncle Sam, and a
large number OF them are out, with lit
tie prospect of immediate payment.

THE HEALTH INSPECTOR.

Ceuncilmen want Reports That Give
Full Details.
There is q good deal of kicking over
the manner in which Meat Inspector
Hayden submits his monthly reports to
the council. He merely reports that he
has condemned 80 many pounds OF meat,
fish or poultry in bulk, without giving
any particulars.
1t Is claimed by members OF the coun-
Gil that a good deal of the effectiveness
of the health officers work lies in the
publicity that may be given to the
names OF the persons or firms who are
trying to sell decayed OF diseased meat,
fish or poultry. The report of the health
officer should, therefore. give the name
of each party whose stock is condemned,
in order that the public may ascertain
through the newspapers who they are
and take measures to protect them
selves.
