It was reported at meeting of the

evening that the executive committee
of the Queens Hospital had granted
the amendment to the new rules OF

physician suspended by the hospital
should have the right of appeal to the
trustees.
The Medical Association, receiving
this report from its committee, ex-
pressed satisfaction at its adoption.
When the rules of the hospital We're

Medical Association was given an OPP
portunity to go over them with a view
to suggestions for amendments, and

LOST HEIRS.
Thousands of Pounds Held for Claim
ants by Court of Chancery.

!
| Not the least remarkable feature con
corning the unclaimed wealth held by
| the courts of chancerv and others i.
| that in some cases the next of kin have
| been missing for between one and two
| hundred years. There is, for instance
| nearly $4,000 waiting for persons who
can prove themselves to be relatives OF
| one Edith Goddard, who married S
| Trattman in 1922; while there is some
| thing of advantage to be learned by
the descendants of Ann, the wife OF
Joseph Mason, who died in 1776. The
descendants of James tombstone, too
who died at Daily, Ayrshire, in 1892
are also wanted.
Unclaimed funds are due to the I'M
known heirs of many persons who have
died intestate In South Africa. These
include. the estates of Edward Bevan
Thomas, G2,946; William Roberts,
91,974; Isabella Novella, e1,532;
George Neale, 6 ,445: Ernest A. Leh-
man. $1,000, and John Williams,
Ell, 102.
The trustees of an estate in Sunder-
land, which probably belongs to the
heir-at-law of Henry Moorhouse, who in
1926 was a captain in the army, would
like to find the person who is really en-
titled to the property. When Lewis
Moore of London died in 1887 he left
trust legacies amounting to $1,000.
These have now become payable, but
no one has comeforward to claim them
Matilda Cotton, Harriet Cook, Amelia
Masters, Elvira Weber Smith, wife of
lieutenant. in the navy in 1899, are
being diligently inquired for. They are
all heiresses to considerable amounts. A
sum of money is also payable to lisa
bella Corner, last heard OF in London in
1887, and Edmund Cooper, who left
England for New Zealand in 1868, is an
absent legatee.
Among other missing beneficiaries are
Herbert Billen, who in 1883 resided at
Croydon; the children of Mary A. R.

1t does seem that women have more

difficult for me to attend to them

way in which I found relief eventually
was by using Doan's Backache Kidney

BOXING GAME PAYS BIG PROFITS
FIsht Clubs at San Francisco Take
in Large Sums at Gate.

IN LbEke bu"H NJ OHtts
SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Sept. 26.-Profits
made by the boxing clubs here exceed all
expectations for the hot season. The gate
for the Attell-Horan and Gans-Nelson
bouts. both at Jimmy" Coffroth's arena,
exceeded $4,000 by a considerable margin.
When 1t is considered that San Francisco
has not yet fully recovered from the earth
quake and fire, and that the city itself is
small compared to Other boxing %centers,
the element of the population interested in
the game can be decided.
The largest gate receipts ever received
in Chicago wre at the McCoy-Ryan fight.
the sum exceeding $4,000 by a slight mar
gin. The fake fight between Jams and
Terry McGovern drew only about 81 900
less. So the report that the supervisors are
planning to shut down more strictly on the
larger proportion of the population turns
out to see the sport.
Eddie" Hanlon's claim that he is back
in form is received with incredulous
smiles. 1t is realized that he cannot pos
sibly be back to his old condition after so
long an absence from the ring. His battle
with Freddie" Welsh probably will not
attract an overly large house.
Stanley Ketchell is expected here daily,
this city rather than in Los Angeles. Re
ports from the southern portion of the
state, however, are to the effect that
his eyes are still so weak that he does not
wish to start work Immediately.
