DEATH is DUE TO NEGLECT
Such is Verdict at Inquest Over the Tody
Of Michael hughes.
CITY AND COUNTY DENY RESPONSIBILITY
Each BIames the other and chief
DOnahue Says a EmphasiEes
Need OF an Emergency
Hospital.

That Michael Hughes came 20 his death
due to lack Of proper medical attention
was the verdict of the jury At the inquest
held Tuesday evening by Coroner Bradley.
The jury also recomme uded that the cor
oner make an investigation as to the rea-
son for the refusal Of the authorities at
the county hospital to admit Hughes to
that institution when II was known he
was sick and was sent to the hospital
Monday afternoon.
The evidence on which the verdict of the
jury was rendered WAS TO the erect that
Hughes received the best Of treatment at
the city iail by Police Surgeon Harris, who
lie an assistant of the city physician, and
that DR. Harris saved Hughes life Sunday
morning after he had taken a quantity Of
laudanum. Hughes improved and was
placed in a cell for Eafe keeping, but was
so sick It was thought best to send him
to the county hospital, although II was a
question If he should not have been sent
to st. Joseph's hospital as an emergency
case at the expense OF the city.

Civil Service.

In the general competitive ex-
animation held throughout the
state on January 9th, a sufficient
number of applicants applied for
positions as clerks, bookkeepers
and factory inspectors to justify
the belief that it will not be nee
essary to hold another examina-
ton for these positions for some
time. 1t is probable that anoth-
er competitive examination for
the above position may not be
held during the next twelve
months.
The number of applicants in
some counties for the position OF
game warden was insufficient
and within the next two months
another examination may be held
for certain counties.
The demand for attendants in
hospitals for the insane and fee
BILE mined is such as to justify
the belief that it will be neces-
sary to hold another examination
soon. Requests are being re-
ceived by the civil service com
mission from authorities IN con
troll of county asylums for names
of suitable applicants.
Thus far the Commission has
received an insufficient mum Der
of applications for positions as
dining room girls and women to
do various kinds Of housework
in the school for depent children
at Sparta, School for the Blind
at GAINESVILLE, State Reformatory.
and in the institutions for the
Insane and Feeble minded
These positions pay from $12.0(
to $1,000 month and give il
addition to that a comfOrtab lt
home aud maintenance.

Gus to secure a good list Of ap
plicants for this kind Of work
and invites the newspapers t.
