Blindness Can be Pre-.

MOTHER SHOULD CALL DOCTOR
Secure Proper Treatment For
Newborn Infants and Save
Loss Of Eyeslght.

To guard newborn infants against
that terrible misfortune. blindness,
State Health Commissioner Dixon has
revived a state law passed some years
ago for Just this object, but never en-.
forced to any extent. This law, passed
June 26, 1895, is entitled AN act for
the prevention Of blindness, imposing
a duty upon all midwives, nurses or
other persons having the care OF in.
fants. and also upon the health officer,
and fixing a penalty for neglect there
Of"
Dr. Dixon declared today that If the
provisions of this law are carried out
there is reason to hope that one-thrd
of the cases of blindness which so
greatly diminishes the productive
value of the individual and too often
renders him a burden on society may
be prevented"
Letter to Physicians.
To ten thousand physicians through

er Dixon Is sending the following let.
ter:
you are probably aware of the fact
that the American Medical association
at It's last annual meeting authorized
the issue of the report of the commit
tee on ophthalmia neonatorum, which
forcibly called attention to the fact
that very large percentage OF the
cases of blindness which the state is
called upon to support is caused by
| that disease, and urged the necessity
| for organized and concerted effort on
the part Of the profession in all of the
states OF the Union to diminish this
evil That this appeal is most timely is
sufficiently indicated by a recent re-
port from the Pennsylvania School for
the Blind, which shows that in the
past eight years more than one-third
of the persons admitted TO that insti
tuition have owed their affliction to
this cause.
This department has. therefore
thought It desirable to revive a law
which has for many years lain dor
mant on our statute books, and a copy
of which Is herewith enclosed.

wisdom of entrusting the treatment Of

LAUNCH OWNERS SUE FOR
LIBEL AFTER COLLISION
Raymo's Proprietors Claim Virgnia's
HeImsman Rammed Their
Craft at San Pedro.
Ask $ff10

Al the result of an alleged collision
between the gasoline launch Raymo
and the gasoline boat Virginia at San
Pedro bay April 1S the owners of the
former craft have brought suit at the
federal district court to recover $1110.
William J. Vareil is proctor for e. X
Willard and George r.. Warren of Los
Angeles, owners of the Raymo. T.. E.
Napier is named as owner of the Vir-
ginia.
The facts as set forth in the paper
are as follows:
About p. m. on the afternoon OF
April 18 the Raymo was steaming OPP
posite the city wharf at San Pedro
bay preparatory to landing in order to
take more passengers to the warships
lying in that bay. The Raymo was
running parallel with the Eagle, an
other small craft, the latter being
slightly ahead.
The Eagle cut across the bows of the
Raymo, and the pilot of the latter with
difficulty prevented his craft from run
ming into her
While his craft, the Raymo, was thus
in a temporarily helpless condition, the
Virginia approached the Raymo in an
oblique course on the port side. De-
spite the warning signals to the con-
ginia rammed the Raymo at full speed.
The latter craft was towed to the wharf
in a sinking condition.
Consequently the Raymos owners
seek to recover $1110, together with
costs of suit, and ask the court to con-
denim the Virginia and her equipment
that this sum may be paid them.

ELEVATOR BOY HERO
OF FIRE IN FLATS
Youth Runs Car Up and Down Shaft
Until He Has Aroused or
Carried Out All the
Tenants

Bv Associated Press.
NEW YORK, April 23.-What prom
ised to be a serious panic in six-story
apartment building on Lexington ave-
nue., near Sixth street, was averted by
the quick wit and bravery of Charles
Laundy, an 1S-year-old elevator boy.
Fifteen families occupy the building,
and 1t contained nearly 200 women and
children, when Laundy discovered a
fire in the basement. Calling to anotner
employe to send in an alarm, he jumped
into his elevator, ran it to the top Hoor
and warned the tenants. He TOOK as
many as his car would hold, telling the
others to run down the stairs.
The alarmed tenants on the fifth floor
were then visited by the boy and an
other big load quickly removed. Laun-
dy continued keeping the car going UP
and down, and by the time the fremen
reached the building it was cleared OF
it's inmates.
Fireman McCleary was overcome by
poisonous gases while fighting the
flames, which were confined to the low
er portion of the building and were ex-
tinguished with comparative ease.

jump into the swirling waters of Sal

son Earle fall from Deer Park bridge.
She saw that the current carried him
into the branches of tree which had
fallen into the water, and that he
gripped the branches firmly, keeping
his head above water.
Then she got a long branch which
she reached to the boy. He caught hold
of this and was drawn to the band.
There is ten feet of water in the brook
Earle had started to see if he could

LOS ANGELES HERALD: FRIDAY MORNING.
OHIO

TOLEDO, o., April 23.-The twenty
wealthy lumber men of Toledo found
guilty of conspiracy in restraint of
trade under the Valentine antitrust
law, were resentenced by Judge Kun
Ter of the common pleas court.
The sentences were fines ranging
from $500 to $1,000, and in no instance
was a Jail sentence imposed.
AKRON-Service of the Central
Union Telephone company through the
northeast section of this city was tied
up for a week until linemen located
the trouble in a cable box at the top
of a telephone pole, where park squir-
rel had broken in and gnaWed away
the insulation.
The animal had a cosy nest inside
the box, with a large family of little
squirrels. When the telephone men
approached the box the mother showed
fight and rather than harm her they
notified the board of public service,
who sent a park man to remove the
nest.
WOOSTER - Announcement was
made by the trustees of the University

Goshorn now believes that he was
struck by a train and that the shock
temporarily unsettled his mind.

Charges were preferred against him
