where the murder occurred. The Jap
travelled about the country and took
orders for clothes and the money re-
ceived was turned in to the China
man at the shop. The partners had
frequent quarrels over money mat
ters, the Jap claiming on many occa-
sions that he was not getting a
square deal" Several months be-
fore the murder the partnership was
dissolved at the request of Arao.
who started in business for himself
on Post street, opposite the Audi
torium. After opening his own shop,
however, he continued to have deal
ings with Sam Chow, his late partner,
and bought goods of him. These
business transactions led to more
uuarrels between Crow and Arao. The
latter constantly claimed that the
Chinaman was not square in his deal
ings.
"Arao became more and more Bit
ter against Sam Chow and finally re-
solved to kill him." declared the
prosecuting attorney in his opening
address.
II object to the language" inter
rupted Judge Marshall, of counsel
for the accused. THE prosecuting
attorney should onl ystate facts
II expect to prove this fact
quietly answered the prosecutor
As this fact" clearly involves the
operation of the prisoners mind be-
fore the murder the prosecuting at
torney made it clear that Arao had
told the full story of his hatred of
Chow and his resolution to kill.
Having resolved to get rid of the
man he concluded had cheated him,
Arao prepared for the deed. He pur-
chased a large pocket knife a few
days before the murder. This knife
is a most dangerous weapon. BY
touching a spring 1t can be opened
! in the pocket and changed to dirk
or dagger having a blade about four
| inches long.
Arao was not certain what weapon
! he was to use in removing Sam
Chow from among the living, so he
also purchased revolver. and The
day before the murder he filed this
| revolver with cartridges and put siH
extra ones in cloth bag which he
carried in his pocket.

Safety In Proprietary Msdiolnsa

Replying to the charge that certain
popular proprietary medicines contain
narcotic drugs, an authority says:
Some years ago one of the leading
pharmacists of America, in connection
with some official work, undertook to
ascertain, by an elaborate inquiry in
representative cities of the country,
what percentage of physicians pre-
scriptions contained a narcotic drug
OF some kind. Out of 100000 repre-
sentative prescriptions, dispensed ia
drug stores in all parts of the United
States, 1t was found that 20 per cent
contained opium or some one of its
preparations.
Proprietary medicines are almost
invariably accompanied by the most
detailed and specific directions for use,
while the directions accompanying
physicians prescriptions are generally
very brief and sometimes illegible. 1t
is also true that but moderate pro-
portion of proprietary medicines con-
tain any poison or narcotic, and when
they do, it is generally in such small
quantities or so protected by accom-
panying antidotes. as to carry with it
no danger whatever"
