DR.. Abbott procured lever and man

the knee Joint is so badly sprained
that the young woman will not be

fashion, and II possible should be
proceeded against criminally; and
therefore II is advised that there
should be clause in these laws pro-
viding for such criminal action and
for punishment by Imprisonment as
well as by fine. But, as Is we'll
know, in a criminal action the law
Is strictly construed in favor OF the
defendant, and in our country, at
least, both Judge and jury are far
more inclined to consider his rights
than they are the interests of the
general public; while in addition it Is
always true that a mans general
practices may be so bad that a civil
action will lie when 1t may be not
possible to convict him of any one
criminal act. There is unfortunately
a certain number of our fenow-coun-
trymen who seem to accept the view
that unless man can be proved
sunny vi some particular crime he
shall be counted a good citizen, no
matter how Infamous the life he has
led, no matter how prenicious his
doctrines or his practices. This is
the view announced from time to
time with clamorous insistence, now
by group Of predatory capitalists.
now by a group OF sinister anar-
chistic leaders and agitators. when
ever a special champion OF either
class, no matter how evil his general
ife' is acquitted OF some one specific
crime. Such view is wicked whether
applied to capitalist or labor leader.

FRENCH REPULsE ARABS
Suffer Heavy Losses I'm Attack on
General Drnde's Forces.

Dchera bruues forCes.
Casa Blanca. Aug. 2l.-Another
fierce attack by the Arabs was made
upon General Drude's French forces
that are stationed In the outskirts OF
the city yesterday. A horde OF the
6esieging natives swooped down upon
the encampment. but the French
were ready for them, and the Arabs
were driven back with terrible loss
OF life, The Arabs are poorly
equipped for the tanatical warfare
they are waging, and they cannot
cope with the trained soldiers OF
France.
The temper OF the natives is ar
oused to the highest pitch, and It is
expected hat general uprising will
follow this recent defeat.
The possibility OF such an uprising
has nlled the foreign residents with
terror, and they are fleeing from
FeE. Morocco City aud the other dan
ser points, leaving their property
behind In their precipitate flight. II
s expected that a general attack
against a number OF prominent CEN
tsrs of foreign population will begin
soon.

Boat Capsizes, Throwing Occupants
Into the Swift Running Stream,
and Sweeps Them to Death.

Sacramento, Cal, Aug. 21.-Four
people, two of whom are believed to
be residents OF Oakland, met death
by drowning here yesterday after
noon In the Sacramento river, 800
yards above the confluence OF that
stream with the American river.
Two bodies have since been recov-
cred. Two of the victims of the
treacherous current were drowned
In an attempt to rescue the other
two.
Charles Palm and a girl whose
Identity is unknown, arrived here
yesterday with the intention of
spending their vacation with rela-
tives on a boathouse. The lad of
II years and the girl who came
here with him, said to be his cousin,
had crossed to the Yolo side of the
river In duck-boat. AS they were
about to disembark the bow of the
boat was carried under the flooring
OF the houseboat. The current Is
strong at this point and In a moment
the boat had capsized
Mrs. Charles White, the sister of
Palm, was alone in the houseboat at
the time and 1t Is believed that
hearing the cries of Palm and his
companion as they struggled In the
water, she ran from the cabin and
jumped into the river In the hope
of effecting a rescue. The shrieks OF
Palm and the girl we're also heard
by Emanuel Grigs, a fisherman who
lived In another houseboat a short
distance down the river. Grigs ran
along the bank to the White house
boat, where he saw the three strug-
Cling together in the water. With
out stopping to remove his boots he
dove In after them. He succeeded
In getting hold Of the two women
and was scarcely stroke from the
houseboat when he uttered an agon-
izing shrek and sank beneath the
water with the two women. who had
been clinging to him.
Mrs. White was about 20 years
old and had many friends on the
Yolo side of the river. At the time
OF the disaster her husband was alb
sent on fishing trip. Charles Palm
operated moving picture machine
in the Novelty Theater. Oakland. His
companion, who was apparently not
more than 16, is said to have been
an actress OF the bay region.
