Facts.

The British Medical Journal
states that last January the
Council of the British Medical
Association through a committee
among whom are Sir Lander
Brunton, Sir Henry Thompson,
Sir William Turner, Sir Victor
Horseley and Professor G.. Sims
Woodhead, asked every register
ed physician in England, Scot
land. Ireland and Wales to unite
with them in signing q petition
for the compulsory study of the
laws of health including elemen-
tary instruction on the nature
and effects of alcohol.
This petition has already been
signed by nearly $1,000 prac,it-
toner's in all parts Of Great
Britain. Recognizing the de-
generacy and disease from the
neglect and infraction of the
elementary laws of hygiene, the
petition also affirms the facts,
that ''much of the degeneracy
disease and accident with which
medical men are called upon to
deal, is directly or indirectly due
to the use of alcohol, and that
widespread ignorance prevails
concerning not only the nature
and properties Of this substance,
but also it's effects on the body
and mind" This seems like
worthy endorsement of the
American plan of Scientific
Temperance Instruction, IN the
face of the elaborate and labored
arguments of it's opposers.

LAUNCH OWNERS
DID NOT AGREE

Yesterday there was mix-up between
A. Foss, the boatman at the Commercial
dock, and Kirby Alger, who have been
running boats and launches 10 the cruiser
Tacoma from the Eleventh street bridge
An attempt was made TO prevent Mr.. Foss
from running his launches to the cruiser,
on the ground that he was violating a city
ordinance by calling the attention Of people
on the bridge to his boats He was threat
ened with bodily harm and the police
were notified that he was hawking without
a license. He wac taken TO the police
station three different times before tho
matter was finally settled and his innocence
fully established. Each time complaint
was lodged against him he was prevented
from selling tickets for mn hour This re-
suited in considerable loss to Mr.. Foss,
but added considerably TO the profits of
the other company.

made mad by a wound.
When RichGeld departed he left his pet
dog in South Tacoma. Thinking that the
dog might be useful in tracking his mas

with them. The dog stayed with them
several days and met his death in the
Quiniaut. He started to swim across the
stream and was carried by the swift cur

1t was not until three weeks ago that
the searching party was able to get through

Rchfeld had made his home the short
time he was in the woods in small cabin
near the South fork of the Quiniault river

lonely shack indications plainly showed
that he had gone on his daily hunt weeks
before and never returned. His provisions
were untouched and beginning to show
signs of age. His gun was gone and none
of his hunting paraphernalia could be
found.
The searchers believe that he may have
fallen into the Quiniault river, which is a
