Others.

Drs. p. B.. Wood and c.. Sullivan were
arrested today on warrants issued from
the county attorneys office charging
them with having fractured the law in
regard to the filing of their state board
medical certificates with the county
clerk and recorder. After the arrests it
transpired that DR.. Sullivan had NO GER
tificate. On being arraigned before JUS
tice Nichol he pleaded not guilty, basing
his right to do so on the ground hat he
was not a practicing physician, but was
simply engaged in the business of SELL
ing patent medicines, the same as a
druggist. He will be given a hearing IN
the afternoon of Oct. A..

told him Wood was not what he cracked
himself up to be and he concluded to have
him arrested.
Wood vas hauled up and questioned
and it was found that while he had a
certificate from the state medical board,
he had not filed it with the county clerk
and recorder. Complaint was then made
against him. Yesterday he filed the GER
titicate as required by law, but it was
pleaded not guilty.
too late. When arraigned today he

in the city that had not filed their certifi-

compelled to take action against them.
1t was simply an oversight on their part,
but nevertheless unless they complied
with the law the negligence would be ex-
pensive for them.
