For several months past the ladies'
OF this city who employ the Indian
girls from the Government school
south OF this city have been entering
complaints against a number OF
white men who are making life mis-
cradle for the little girls.
On several occasions th. girls have
been chased home by these brutes
and but for the protection offered at
the homes OF the ladies crimes would
have been committed. The matter
has become one OF such seriousness
that lady last evening phoned to the
Sheriff's Office for assistance.
OF all the contemptible business
that is the limit The glris, some OF
them not over twelve years OF age,
are entitled to as much il moi more
protection than the white girls They
need all the care that the ladies can
gve them, but to be threatened and
maltreated by such men as make this
a business it is crime that needs the
severest punishment

INDIAN GIRLS THREATENED
BY BRUTAL WHITE MEN
Carson Ladies Complain to Sheriff
of Unnatural Treatment of Help

The names OF couple OF the bold

the Sheriff In case OF any further
disorder on this score warrant will
be sworn to and nasty trial will bt

This matter has been going on 10.
several months. The ladies are hay
ing hard time securing the help OF
the Indian girls and the Superintend-
ent OF the Institution only lets them
out with the understanding that they
receive all protection possible.
1t has come to a pass where the
Indian girl is afraid to venture oul
alone as does the white daughter
They generally go in groups in OF
der to have protection and even this
has not prevented attempted assaults
The police can get as busy as thes
like on this score and make an ex
ample OF some OF the beasts that are
worrying both the ladies and the lit

The floor is laid in the usual man

gutter. When finishing the top of the
concrete, a straightedge is laid from
gutter to manger and with the point
of a trowel, grooves Oh channels are
cut the entire length. These should
be three inches apart and not over
half an inch deep, says a writer in

DAMAGES for a Sale of Morphine.

ffftt~
An important decision with refer
ence to the sale of morphine has re-
Gently been given by the Tenth Cham
bre Correctionnelle. A pharmaceutical
chemist having sold morphine without
a medical prescription to a student at
Nancy, the latter gave 1t to one of
his comrades, who as a result Of Ia
king 1t contracted the morphine hab-
it. The father of the victim then
brought an action for damages against
the chemist, who In his defense said,
In the first place. that he was respon-
sible only for his own action. but not
for the action Of the student who had
given the morphine to his comrade.
and In the second place. that he had
no direct connection with the injury
sustained by the consumer of the NOR
phine. The lower court upheld this
view. but the higher tribunal ordered
the chemist to pay 100 francs fine and
1000 francs damages on the ground
that a pharmaceutical chemist who
sells a poisonous substance without a
medical prescription knows that he is
liable for whatever misuse may be
made Of 1t, either by the first recipient
or by the next person who comes into
possession of it.-Paris letter to the
