DR.. Lesser WAS ARRESTED
For Practicing Medicine at Daw-
son City.
AMERICANS ARE BARRED
Physicians From the United States Are
Not Permitted to Practice Although
Men Are Dying for Need
of Medical Attention.

American physicians seem to be get
ting way the worst of it in the Klon-
dixie country. The January number Of
the Medical Sentinel, published at
Portland, Ore, reports that Drs.
Merryran and Lesser have been fined
$50 each fer practicing medicine with
out license in Dawson. DIR. Lesser is
a brother of Mayor Lesser of Anaconda.
1t seems that it is almost impossible
for American physicians to be per-
mitted to practice in that country
DR.. D. C. Newman writes as follows
on the status Of medical affairs in the
Klondike'
"In late issue you speak of physi-
clans wishing to practice in the Klon-
dixie region being requested to pass an
examination at Calgary. In this you
are in error, as only American grad
yates are required to pass this exam
ination, and unless the place of exam
nation has been recently changed, the
examination is held at Regina, the cap
ital of the N. w. T. Regina is a village
near the Manitoba border I spent the
summer in Klondike, leaving Dawson

tice in the United States unmolested,
and were for the arrest of physicians
who had been on the Yukon before any
Canadian physicians had arrived there,
and who asked ITO be examined as to
their fitness and. ability. Such usage
convinces me that as long as we allow
men with foreign degrees to practice in
the United States, foreigners will hold
our medical men in the same contempt
they do everything else American, and
l am hoping that ere long every state
will pass laws refusing to recognize
the diplomas Of all countries that 1e-
fuse our diplomas equal recognition.
II have visited some of the most ia
nous universities in Europe and de-
clare, without fear of contradiction,
that San Francisco, Chicago, Baltimore,
Philadelphia, New York and Boston,
have as good facilities for teaching
medicine, as well informed faculties and
better conducted hospitals and clinics
than any of the European me lical CEN
tiers, and I am convinced that once we
refuse to recognize foreign degrees
other nations will gladly enter into
reciprocity arrangements with us, put
ting American medical men on an equal
footing, that they, by their skill and
learning, have long since earned"

CONVICTED AND FINED.
Some Unusual Features in a vagrancy
Case.

Some Unusual Features in a vagrancy
Case.
Considerable interest was manifested
in vagrancy trial which took place
yesterday afternoon before Judge Fer
rell in the police court both because of
the personality ofsthe defendant and
because of some rather unusual feat
ures the trial developed. The defend
ant was James McHugh, the we'll
known football PLAYER. who became
considerable of a favorite on the Butte
gridiron in games in which he played
against Butte, with Reliance of Oak
land and the Anaconda team. The al
legations of the complaint which con-
stituted the charge Of vagrancy, were
that he had no visible means of sup
port and that he lived in and about
houses of i'll repute. In this latter con-
nection he was accused of being the
secretary of May Ryan, a we'll
known Galena street character. Nc
Hugh offered testimony to show he
owned $4,000 worth of property, and
both he and the woman went on the
stand and swore they never knew one
another and that he had never been
in the woman's house. but it was
shown he had been seen about the
variety theaters and on Galena street
and he was convicted and fined

NO ACTION TAKEN.
Leggat's Mining Operations Shake tho

Leggat's Mining Operations Shake the
Court House.
John A. Leggat's mining operations
on the little patch of ground west of
the court house is daily adding to the
damage of the county building. On
Monday two charges were set off in
the shaft and the explosions that fol-
lowed were terrific, and shook every
stone in the court house. A great patch
of plastering was knocked off the CELL
ing of the jury room and lot of it
was cracked and loosened in Judge
Clancy's court room and another eX
plosion will probably cause it to fall,
and it is likely to injure some one.
The plasterng that Is loose Is right over
the judges bench and the tables occu-
pied by the attorneys, witnesses and
stenographer. Some of the county Off
GERS are somewhat alarmed, and sew
eral requests We're made on the COM
missioners to have Mr.. Leggat enjoined
from continuing his mining operations,
but for some reason they have taken
no action.

YouMa,yBe
THE OWNER or A
Fine Sewing
Machine

If so, this should be of interest to you,
for you certainly want to take care of
it, be it old or new. So many people /
seem to think it is all right to buy any
thing that is labeled sewing machine
oil, and they could not make greater
mistake, for after using the so-called
sewing machine oil for a few months
their machine commences to run hard,
and before the end of the year it takes
a half horse power to run 1t, and by
this time possibly some INSCRIPTIONS
agent comes along and tells them the
machine is no good or is worn out, when
the fact Is all the machine needed was
to have this inferior Oil cleaned off and
oiled with first class oil to make 1t as
good as ever. Therefore you had better
take no chances, but buy that which
you know to be the best, the pure Elk
celsor Sperm Oil, warranted not to
gum. Try it and be convinced.
