AS the result of vaccination little Noel
Gwynn, aged years. is dying of lockjaw
at the Children's Hospital.
His mother, Frustrated by the blow, is
waiting the end with sorrow eating her
heart out at her home. 2S0s California
street.
The little boy was vaccinated on July
2S by Dr. George W. BirdsaT. Up to a
week ago no symptoms other than those
which usually follow vaccination were
observed, but when DR.. w. B. levitt
and DR.. George Ebright were called in
Monday the baby was in the throes Of
lockjaw.
Brother physicians hold DR.. BirdsaIl
blameless- 1t is the universal belief that
the bandage covering the wound must
have slipped from the child's arm and
that some foreign substance entered the
wound and infected it,
Dr. Birdsall is heartbroken over the
affair. though those who understand the
conditions exonerate him. 1T is one of
those unfortunate accidents that some
times occur he said yesterday. Il used
the same vaccine on six other children,
but none of them showed any Ill effects
from it. The child in playing must have
disturbed the bandage. Some foreign
substance must have entered the wound
Il had nothing to do with the baby 5
case since last Sunday. so | can give no
opinion as to the cause. do not believe
that this is a direct result of the vac
cination. Tetanus usually appears with
in ten days or two weeks after wound
has been inflicted"
This statement is borne out by nearly
every medical authority upon the sub
jcct.
) The mother was in no condition to tell
of her babys plight yesterday. Her sis
ter, Miss Adeline Backhussen. said:
.sFor the first few days we noticed moth
ing peculiar The babys arm began to
swell and he was feverish and peevish.
We expected this and paid little atten-
ton to it. But the baby suffered from the
effects of the vaccination so long that my
sister telephoned to DR.. Birdsall- He al
layed her fears by telling her that the
child was suffering from some slight
stomach trouble
Last Monday we were sure that some
thing was wrong and called In Or. levitt.
Then we knew that the baby was suffer-
ing from lockjaw.'
The mothers grief yesterday was pitl-
full. She was told that she had better not
go near the hospital where her only child
lay dying. All day she remained in the
house in a state OF terrible suspense.
Every time the doorbell rang it sent q
chill to her heart. She feared that 1t
might be some one to tell her that the
end had come.
DR.. Levitt and DR.. Ebright would say
little regarding the case They pro-
nounce the baby's complaint acute teta-
nus.
The vaccine used by DR.. Birdsall is DIR.

used as several others. many physicians
in this city use it.

WIGS ARE WORN
DESPITE LAWS

VICTORIA, B.. c., Aug. pa strange
conflict has occurred in connection with
the trial of the American fishing schoon-
er North, ordered to be confscated by
Justice Martin in the Admiralty Court
for fishing within British Columbia
waters. At the last session of the Legis-
lature an enactment was made prohibit
ing the wearing of wigs in any British
Columbia court.
During the trial of the case Judge Mar
tin and counsel wore wigs, the Judge con-
tending the enactment did not apply to
the Admiralty Court, which has federal
jurisdiction. Legislators. however, con-
tend the enactment affects any court
which sits in British Columbia, and say
the Judge and counsel are liable to in
dictment for infringing the enactment
prohibiting the use Of wigs in British Co.
lumbia courts.

Mariner Sends Ball Into
Leg of Attorney Who Tries
to Take Up Sealnen's Fight
Special Dispatch to The Call.


SAN DIEGO. Aug. 26.-During the
last two days things have been ex-
tremely lively on the brig Galilee. the
snip that has been in the harbor for
the past two weeks with the party Of
scientists who are conducting mag
netic survey on the Pacific Ocean un-
der the auspices of the Carnegie Insti-
tute.
Yesterday afternoon six of the Cali
lees crew attacked Second Mate Canty.
against whom they had a grudge.
Canty did not retreat. but on the con-
trary advanced on his six opponents.
Without any useless preliminaries the
men were at it. Back and forth over
the decks of the Galilee they fought.
Then they fought down the gangplank
and on the Government wharf. Here
the mate had more room to maneuver
and in short space of time lie had the
six sailors, each of whom is a large
man. on the flooring of the wharf.
One of the, men was knocked out cold
and the balance were in sadly&ilapi-
dated state. The mate was tired as a
result of his exertions, but could have
continued the fight for some time
longer had it been necessary. Alto
gether the fight consumed the better
part of thirty minutes.
The ringleader of the trouble was
discharged sailor named Anton Olson,
who is much larger man than Canty.
olson called the mate a number OF vile
names and dared him to fight. In ex-'
planning the affair, Mate Comfy said:
Can a Yankee take such talk from
Dutchman?"
This afternoon the aftermath of the
fight came when c. j. Winters, known
as sea lawyer; Joseph Mayer and sew
eral other sailors visited the Galilee
with the intention of doing the mate.
The party boarded the Galilee with
Winters and Mayer in the lead. Mayer
was carrying a revolver in his hand.
Mate Canty, seeing that they had come
for trouble, procured a Winchester and
ordered them off the brig. Mayer re-
piled by swapping his revolver several
times at Canty, who replied by firing
two shots from the Winchester.
Winters received one of the bullets
in the leg, but this did not hinder him
from getting over the side of the yes
sell Later Winters was taken to the
Agnew Sanatorium. while Canty was
arrested and held under $1,000 bonds for
his preliminary hearing pext Thursday.
The Galilee was to have sailed to-
morrow afternoon, but as the mate is
under bonds and number of the crew
have been summoned as witnesses, she
will not get away for Honolulu for sew
eral days Mayer was arrested this
evening, and, with Canty, is charged
with assault with a deadly weanon.
