MISTAKES MAY BE MADE
President Warmers Opinion on the
Emergency Hospital Episode.
Dr. Smith Thinks Patients Should Not
Ask the Ambulance to Convey
Anywhere but to Hospital.

As stated yesterday IN The Evening
Times, Col john Tracy, superintendent
OF charities for the District, has under
taken an investigation into the case OF
Mr. PIiny Hough, published il u The Morning
Times yesterday. The Emergency Hospital
authorities declined to send Mr.. Hough
to his residence from the hospital, where
he had been removed from the Manchester
wharf in an unconscious condition
Mr. Hough was not to be seen yesterday,
on the advice OF his physician. and it
could not be learned whether he would
on his owr..aotion, ask for an investigation
of the case.
Mr. B. II Warner, president of the board
| of directors OF the Emergency Hospital,
was seen yesterday aud asked If he had
| had any explanation TO make OF the action
OF the Officers at the hospital or anything
| to say on the subject.
He said: Il saw an account OF the matter
in The Times this morning and I went
down early TO the hospital and heard
what the superint ntendent and resident
physician had to say. OF course, there
are two sides to every question. The
hospital is supposed to be run for the
benefit of the public and the ambulance
| is kept for emergencies and for hospital
| work.
Il may say that it is not customary
| for physicians to send for the ambulance
when patients are To be taken to private
| houses and this is well understood by the
a
| very well stand the strain very long if
| the ambulance were required to be in
service in cases which do not come under
the rules. In fact, the horse is already
worn out.
If there are any charges made it can
be assumed that they VIII be thoroughly
investigated. 1 do not care 10 say any.
thing further on the subject. 1 do not
| hesitate TO say, however, that in the de
sire TO make no exception TO the rules,
| mistakes may be made"
Dr. Smith, the resident physician. was
called on He said that he had already
given to The Times what he had to say.
He acted, he said, according to the rules
| OF the institution, and could say nothing
| further.
He was asked if there had ever been cases
where the rules had been relaxed so as TO
| cover n case of the nature of that OF Mr..
| Hough or kindred cases. He said that there
had been such cases. but that such eXten-
sion had ceased some time ago. as he pre-
suned on account of the abuse OF the prIyi-
| Iege.
Dr. Smith made the point that if the case
| OF Mr. Hough was an emergency case the
| Emergency Hospital was the place for such
| treatment, and that if some other treatment
was desired the patient should not require
| the Emergency Hospital to furnish the
| transportation, especially Is 1t was con-
| trary to the rules to do so.

der in a hundred that DR.. Pierce's rene
dies Will not cure promptly and peTma-
nently. No matter how serious the case
may be. no matter what friends, phyS-
clans and specialists may say. no matter
how helpless and hopeless the patient
may feel, if She will write to the Worlds
DispenSary Medical Association, at Buff
falo, y. Y, OF which DR.. Pierce is presi-
dent, she will promptly receive, free of
cost, such plain, straightforward. conf
dental advice as will enable her to cure
herself at home. If, as ii sometimes hap
pens, her case doesn't yield entirely TO the
remedies named, the records show that
by visiting DR.. Pierce's Invalid's Hotel
and Surgical Institute and placing herself
under the treatment OF the corps of skilled
specialists, who have successfully treated
thousands upon thousands OF cases, she
Will soon go forth well, strong and
happy woman. After years of experience
it has been found that there are very very
few cases, not durable by DR.. Pierce's
put-up medicines on sale throughout the
land and when such n case is found the
patient is not asked to indulge in further
experiments and expense, but is can
didly advised by DR.. Pierce as to her true
condition.

She is ENGAGED.
The Most Beautiful Woman in
New England.
Will Her Sons Be Statesmen,
Her Daughters Models OF
Perfect Womanhood?

If the half Of what has been said and
written OF woman's inhumanity To woman
were true, the girl whose, picture is here
given would not be living to-day AC-
cording to her own wordS,it was another
woman's letter that saved her life Good
Judges who have Seen this young lady

perfect specimen OF female loveiness in New
England
She is the embodiment of that type Of
beauty that springs from within and can
not be protra ycd on the artists mamma te
canvas or in a newspaper illustration any
more than it can be produced by outward
means on the face OF the living subject.
Personal CHARMS.
To her personal charms she adds accom-
pliShments and social standing The fact
that she is engaged TO be married may cause
susceptible young men TO lose interest in
her, but there are reasons why she becomes
of particular interest TO every woman in
the land.
When q girl is engaged she is preuar-
ing 10 make the history of the world
Whether her sons shall be statesmen or
Gay laborers and whether her daughters are
invalids or models OF perfect womanhOnd
depends chiefly upon the engaged girl her
self And this particular girl considered
herself fit subject for a madhouse less

Such is the confidence Of his fellow

by election TO the highest offices in the

State Senate and later TO Congress. Such,
however is the doctors pride and love
for his profession that he has since re-
pea tedly declined high office in order
that he may best serve the public by
serving his patients, who are scattered
over every State and Territory in

Shells Made Clean Hole in One and
Nearly w eut Through Others.
A test of two steel experimental plates
was made yesterday at the Indian Head
proving grounds. The first contained
chrome instead OF nickel steel
1t was 10 1-2 inches thick and was
fired with a velocity of 1,SS6 feet Il
second and the second, 1,7S6 feet. Both
made clean holes through the plate.
The second test was that of a seven inch
Harveyized plate with corrugated sur
face. The corrugation was the only new
feature to its construction, and its object
was to better observe the working in OF
carbon. Two shots from a siXnch gun
were fired, the first at 300 feet sec
ond, the second at 2,100 feet, Carpenter
shells being used.
The first shell was imbedded in the plate,
with the front nearly through; the second
shell went through, half of il dropping
on the rear side of the plate. Neither test
was considered important, and nothing
valuable was developed.
