WELL KNOWN SPECIALIST
LECTURES ON NURSING
DIR. Richard &. Cabot of Harvard Ad-
dresses Meeting of the California
State NurSCS' Association.


The California State Nurses Asso-
citation held a meeting last night at
Century Hail. 1918 Sutter street, and
during the session DIR. Richard c..
Cabot of Harvard University and the
Massac chusetts General Hospital and a
famous blood specialist addressed a
large audience.
In his opening remarks DIR. Cabot
spoke of the general advantage
women had over men in the field of
nursing, both from aptitude for deli
cate work and from intuitive sympa
thy. The method of instructing
nurses of the present day he deplored
saying that as they received much of
their instruction by free lectures the
students suffered thereby. The only
way to properly establish course of
education for novices is to include the
paid lecture. DIR. Cabot added, how
ever, that personally he had learned
little from lectures. All his knowledge
he had gained by working out his own
problems.
Many perplexing questions were
asked during the evening, but the lee
turer was equal to every emergency.
He closed with the plea for the nurses
to fix a certain standard below which
nurse could not fall without losing
her right to the title.

ing post at Northwest River on March
with a party of half breeds and dogs
conveying stores. They proceeded
south along the Labrador coast, travel
in the interior being impossible owing
to lack of shelter from the frequent
fierce snowstorms They journeyed
through all the fishing harbors along
the coast. finding shelter with the set
tiers when possible and making from
eight 10 ten miles daily.
A Long, Tedious Journey.
The party reached Battle Harbor, OF
the outer extremity of the straits OF
Belle Isle, Thursday last after travel
ing for over two months and covering
distance OF 4TJ miles. Ninety-fom
dogs were in commission during that
period.

LEwlsoHN KEPT FROM CELL
Writs Save Him After Refusal to Tes-
tifY In Gambling Case.

New York, May 1.-Two writs, one
of habeas corpus. the other of certio-
rari. saved Jesse Lewisohn from sleep
ing in prison cell
Twice adiudged guilty Of criminal
contempt of court in having disregard
ed judicial instructions to reveal what
he knew of Richard A. Garfield and
the happenings in his gambling house
in Forty yfourth street, placed under
arrest by one judge and committed
summarily to prison for fifteen days By
another. Mr.. Lewisohn escaped punish
ment only by the action of his lawyer,
who obtained the writs and had his eli
ent paroled in his custody until the ar
gument is heard on Thursday.
Before then Mr.. LewisOhn may find
himself face to face with more trouble.
In all likelihood his course in declinins
to answer the questions put to him by
the grand jury and thus defying the
new law for which District Attorney
Jerome fought will result in his indict-
ment. His conduct, it is asserted, will
constitute a misdemeanor. and on the
Indictment being handed down a bench
warrant may be issued for him, and he
may be arrested at once.
If this is done Mr.. Lewisohn will find
himself under three charges growing
out Of his defiance of the courts-ont
of contempt, on which he has been
sentenced to jail; another Of the same
character, on which he may be sen
fenced to another term in prison, and
an indictment for misdemeanor.
