PASSED OVER
A BAD LEAK

A case of incompetency of city
employees was brought to the at
tention of The Press this morning
by resident of the North Side. Ac-
cording to the statement a city pipe
inspector went his rounds in the
neighborhood and discovered a
minor leakage in the pipes of one
of the homes. He ordered it fixed
although the pipe was only leak
ing about ten drops to the minute
by the watch. A fragrant case of
leakage was discovered shortly af-
terward by the owner of another
home in the neiehborhood, through
which about 40 gallons to the min
ute were being wasted. This same
inspector who discovered the one
leakage of ten drops to the minute,
had passed over and o. KID this
other leakage of 10 gallons to the
minute, and the owner of the house
had discovered it within "a hours
after the inspector had said it was
o. X.

Another case Of "man's inhuman-
lty to man." with Or. w. @. Webb,
county physician, playing lead
Ing role, has come to the surface
at the Garrett hotel, on Main near
Division.
Or. Webb draws a big salary
from the Fraterna Order of Eagles
as their local physician. He is also
county doctor at salary Of 500
per month with an assistant at SIS
per month, paid by the taxpayers.
Yet in spite of the duties these
dual roles impose on Webb, he has
the time to take care of private
practive on the outside.
Friday night, Mrs. Knudson, a
woman ledger at the Garrett hotel,
was believed to be dying. The
dodgers kindly took charge of her
case and found that she was penni-
less and without the means to hire
a doctor She told them that her
husband, whom she said had re-
Gently deserted her, was a member
of the Eagles and that if they called
on the Eagles doctor she thought
they might get him to come to her
aid.
Two men were dispatched to call
the doctor, while two of the women
roomers did what they could to re-
lieve the woman's distress. She is
troubled with lnflammatory rheu
matism, which had gone toward the
region of the neart, and several
times during the night it was
thought that the woman was about
to die.
The men learned after they
started out that the Tagles doctor
and the county doctor were one and
the same person and they conclud-
ed that there would be no time lost
in getting him.
DR.. Webb, in a response over the
phone, told them that If they
thought he was there to take care
of every stranded Eagle in the
country they We're seriously mis-
taken. He flatly refused to come,
either as Eagle doctor or county
doctor, and in the final course of
instrumentation used very strong

GREAT SKETCH
At 0RPHEOM

The bill at the Orpheum this
week is one of pleasing variety and
the headline act. "The Sigh of the
Rose" an Italian sketch elaborated
from a poem often recited by Mr..
George Beban, Is way above the
average vaudeville playlet. Mr.. Be-
ban has long been known for his
remarkably lifel!ke delineations of
the Italian types and his sketch
this week displays his talent to ex-
cellent advantage. An Italian
father who visits a florists shop to
purchase rose for the grave OF his
child and who is arrested on his
way to the cemetery on suspicion
of being involved in a black hand
plot, is the theme on which the
sketch is based.
Asahi is Japanese mystifier,
who Is assisted by the Asahi quin-
tet, performs tricks that really
mystify. He causes jets of water
to squirt from the heads and hands
of his ASSISTANTS and from objects
on the table to the delight of the
audience.
Madame JEWELS manikins enter
tain the audience on a miniature
stage and the dolls present vaude-
vile sketches, dance and do other
stage turns in a grown-up manner.

Der of his own songs and Miss Ma

Still Another Complaint Against
County Physician Webb---
Woman's Story.

language in telling the committee
what he thought of their appeal.
WOMAN PRAYED TO DIE.
Returning to the hotel, the men
reported what treatment they had
received and there was genral in
dignation about tn place. The two
women sat up with Mrs. Knudson
during the night and labored with
her until morning, when ease
came.
Once or twice during the
night the afflicted woman got
down on her knees and prayed
that the Lord would peaceabIy
end her troubles, that she was
ready to go at any time, as life
held but little more for her.
From the woman it was learned
that her husband had deserted her
in Montana, taking all the money
they had in the world and leaving
her nothing but some household
furniture. She came on to Spokane
in an effort to locate him, and here
was taken sick after she had gone
to the Garrett hotel.
SOMETHING ABOUT WEBB.
1t will be recalled that DR.. Webb
was county physician when Carrie
McQuaigg died in the county Jail,
after the inmates had time and
again called for him to attend the
woman.
DR.. Webb was county physician
when Bozell died in the county
Jail. A call for physician had
been made for Bozell time and
again in his last days without a re-

Some men are foolish enough to swap

there are men who will turn their backs

the things that have been done by the

lor many wears. The Whitmans were
practical printers and newspaper men
and brought the Star up to high stand
ard OF excellence"
\ letter from Mr.. Elmer II. Walton,
editor of the Salisbury (AId.) Courier
and dated Oct. IS, reads as follows:
"AIessrs. S. Z. Whitman & Sons,
Gentlemen: We have always been
very glad indeed to receive your paper
and was sorry to note the fact that you
had left the Eastern Shore, but trust
you will have Il most pleasant and de
lightful time in Your new home. | am
quite sure that the Eastern Shores loss
will be gain so far as New Jersey Is
concerned.
With best wishes and kindest re-
CARDS, ETC."
1t is our desire to personally meet the
people as rapidly as possible and become
one of them i'll fact. The tasks of an
editor are very hard at the best-espe-
cially in Il locality that is entirely
strange and we are going to ask you
to bear with us until we have had the
opportunity to study and learn your
friends of the paper to send i'll at all
times any items of news that they may
know, thereby assisting Us to make The
Press more readable. We also invite
suggestions as to how the paper might
be improved and solicit communications
from our readers upon matters OF public
Importance. Tell us what is now run
ming in the paper that you would like
to see eliminated and what is lacking
that you would like to see appear. We
hope to have The Press enter regularly
every home i'll the borough and to re-
ceive an increased amount of advertise
ments from our business men. The en-
tire working force will be retained,
which will assure the trade the same
high h-class job work for which the Office
has noted reputation.
And finally to Mr.. Braun the retlr-
ing editor. who for the past six years has
been constantly at the helm and has
piloted the ship with remarkable success
over the tempestuous seas which un-
doubtedly he has had to encounter, we
wish to extend our best wishes for sue
cess in whatever field he may choose to
labor. Our acquaintance with him has
been very brief, but in this time we have
found him a thorough gentleman, and
the testimonials from those who know
him better, which have already been pub
lished. convince us that he is public
spirited man who will be greatly missed
in this locality.
If we are able, with your assistance,
dear patrons, to maintain the standard
he has set for us, we will feel that our
labors have not been for nought.
