DOCTOR LEAVES,
NURSES FOLLOW
st. Elmo Hospital Staff
Suffers a Quick
Shake-Up.
Superintendent Claims That
Physicians Wife Was
the Cause.

The st. Elmo Hospital. at Eighteenth
and Douglass streets, nesting under tn /.
shadow of Twin Peaks, has added an
other chapter to its record of misfol
tunes. The building passed from the
hands of its original owner, ''Nobby"
Clarke. Then it was turned into sani-
tarium and smallpox broke out among
the patients. OutbUildings to which the
patients had been removed were destroy
ed by order of the Board of Health. The
institution was subsequently changed
into a private asylum for the insane.
DR.. J. p. Frlzell was installed as resi-
dent physician, and with his wife took up
his ABODE at the hospital. All went along
nicely until. ii is alleged, DR.. Frlzell
wife began to usurp the attendance OF the
nurses 10 the detrIment of the patients.
superintendent A. Murdock objected TO
this procedure and an open rupture was
the result. DR.. Frizell and wife and three
nurses left on Monday night, and new
resident physician was promptly installed.
According to Murdock the st. Elmo
Hospital holds a commission from the
State Lunacy Commission which holds the
superintendent alone responsible for the
conduct Of the institution. He says he
instructed Miss Dugan, the head nurse,
TO notify the nurses under her charge to
pay more attention to the patients thau
TO DR.. FriZelrs wife.
On Monday night the climax came. DIR.
Frizells wife. says Murdock, wanted u
nurses attention that night. Miss Dugan
planned 10 the superintendent, who sus-
tanned Miss Dugan. The latter told the
nurses they would either have to obey her
or else leave the hospital. They chose the
latter alternative and went out with DR..
FriZell and wife.
Misses H. Crap. Mamie Brannan and
Mabel Read Were the young women who
left. Miss Read and Miss Brennan were
at the French Hospital at the time of the
trouble there with the nurses. and sew
cred their connection with the latter in
stitution at that time. Their places have
since been filled. DR.. James Bussing has
been elected resident physician, and Su-
perintendent Murdoch thinks that the
troubles of the institution are at an end,

EITHER DEAD
OR SHANGHA|EO
Queer Disappearance of
Harry McAfee From
a Schooner.
Only Trace of Missing Man
Is His Hat, Found on
Ronita's Deck.

William McAfee, residing at SIG Green
w1ch street, yesterday reported the disac-
pearance of his brother, Harry McAfee,
to the Morgue officials. The circum-
stances attending the disappearance led
to the belief that the man was either
drowned or Shanghaied.
The missing McAfee resides in the into
rior of the State and was in the city on
visit to his brother Thursday night he
went to spend the night with some
friends on the schooner Bonita. Shortly
after midnight he bade the party good
night and was shown to berth. Moth
ing more has been seen of him by his
relatives, but his hat was found on the
deck the morning following.
McAfee's relatives waited until last
night for him to return, then notified the
Morgue officials. The deputies think the
man may have fallen overheard AMI
drowned or that he may have been taken
by force and placed on board some ship
going out to sea. The police will be asked
to assist In the search for the missing
man.

MYSTERIOUS RoBBER
AT WORK AT FAIRFAX
Prowler Carries Off Much Loot From
the Home of Rancher
King.

SAN RAFAEL, Oct. 29-The mysterious
robber of Fairfax has been at work
again. Last night the house of Manuel
King, rancher living at the foot OF
Whites Hill. was broken into and more
than $500 stolen. The robber also helped
himself to a rifle, two revolvers and BIZ
cycle. So skillfully was the affair carried
out that none of the family were dis
turbed- Entrance was effected through
the kitchen door, the lock of which was
bored out.
The robber is supposed to be the one
who has operated in that locality for
some months. About two months ago
Sheridan Smith, wealthy rancher OF
Bolinas, was held up at Fairfax and at
the muzzle of a revolver in the hands of
masked robber was compelled to part
with all his money and valuables. From
time to time Italian and Portuguese
workmen travelling through that locality
at night have been robbed. Every effort
to erect the capture of the thief has so
far been unsuccessful.

Oil Men and Raiiro ads Fight.

Kankalee. ILL.,, July PA contro-
versy occurred short distance north
of this city the other day In which the
Standard Oil company and the Illinois
Central railroad We're opposed to each
other.
The site OF the cudahy oil refinery.
north of this city. built and disposed OF
last year to the Standard Oil trust, is
now a dreary waste. Nothing remains
except q half mile of steel rails lead
ing to the site of the refinery and radi-
ating thence to points where the tanks
once stood.
On Wednesday morning twenty la
borers of the Standard Oil company
began to tear up the rails. An Illinois
Central employee had learned of the de-
sign of the Standard Oil people and
informed the railroads local attorney,
w. r. Hunter. Mr.. Hunter promptly
wired to the Chicago Office and soon
after there was speeding 10 Kankakee
a special train bearing Superintendent
McCount. Roadmaster Dougherty and
Attorney John c. Brennan.
AS the Illinois Centrals men hove in
sight the Standard workmen tore up b
rail at the intersection of the track
that led into the disputed territory.
There was a short, sharp dispute be-
tween the captains of the opposing
forces. The Standard Oil company's4
men We're slightly in the majority. At
the suggestion of Roadmaster Dough-
erty the railroad officials retreated.
But they came back within a short
time, riding in an engine, and behind
that engine We're 100 of the heaviest
4 freight cars that could be found in the
! yards, which We're SPEEDILY distributed
/ over the disputed track, there to firmly
anchor it until the trouble is adjusted.

Yes. Waterloo, Clear Lake and Perry

How will these grounds be deter

Wei, the way they usually do in 9TH
err states is to select a number of these
suitable sites and then a proposition is
drawn up and submitted to all of the
towns. For instance, We'll agree that II
this city will deed a tract of land for the
use of the guard that the encampments
of all the regiments in the state Will be
held here for period of years. Now. Of
course, that means thousands of dollars
for the merchants of the town annually
so you can see that it Will be big thing
| for the place that secures it. Another
| thing in selecting these grounds, one ol
| the most important thing to be looked

is. We'll have good water supply, gooc
