WON HIS POINT
"sILk HAT HARRY" WORKS UPON
FAINT STOMACH OF CHIEF or
POLICE aEEMAN. y

j. G. Hoakum, who suf1xes his cog.
nomen with the degree Of NJ d. al.
though he devotes his entire practice
Of medicine to the removal Of these
pesky and sensitive little bumps ap
pearing on tender toes, appealed to-
the sensitiveness of Chief OF Police
J. E. Beeman this morning in order TIC
convince him that the nature OF his
practice did not demand his purchas-
ing, of license. DR.. Hoaku.-- APP
peared at the police station Just after
police court this morning. with his
tall silk hat, which had lost its gloss
through age, and the rest Of his attire
somewhat the worse from constant
usage. He introduced himself to the
chief and proceeded at once to pro-
mulgate the cause Of his visit. From
one pocket he produced whiskey
flask full Of a colorless liquid which he
declared was the only medicine neces-
sary to remove corns bodily and that
this constituted his medicine case.
To further explain his profession he
produced another bottle larger than
the first, carefully wrapped in piece
of cloth. This he brought forth to the
gaze of Chief Beeman, disclosing hun.
dreds Of picked corns of all sizes and
shapes, the fruits OF his labors through
out the middle west. Chief Beeman
took one short look at the choice bits
OF humanity and then informed DR..
Hoakum that II he would put that
bottle under cover he could remove all
the corns in Ottumwa he desired. The
chief was likened unto seasick per
son for few moments and declared
that he would keep an eagle eye on
corn doctors in the future and stop
the argument before the production Of
the evidence Of the M. DIS. powers
