 In the district court on September 29 Judge Fuller allowed the bill of exceptions submitted by Attorney Morton E. Stevens in the case of hte United States vs Joseph Campbell, who was convicted of murder in the first degree at Iditarod in 1912, and the case will now go to the circuit court of is now serving a life sentence at McNeil Island The crime of which Campbell was convicted was committed on the kusko- kwim river in 1911. It is alleged that he was the murderer of he Nelson brothers, whose bodies were found buried many miles from civilization, the convicting evidence being nearly entirely circumstantial, The attorney for the defense therefore hopes to be able to have the decision of the dis trict court reversed
 After some argument in the district court Judge Fuller handed down the declSlon that hereafter the official court reporter will not be obliged to transcribe his notes for the use of attorneys unless paid to do so This is a decision of importance to local attorneys, as the matter has been the cause of some debate in the past.

pointment was confirmed on Saturday
and rescinded today. She. has written the
mayor a letter dwelling upon the neces-

Mrs Lillian A. King. whom Mrs.
Thorpe recommends, will undoubtedly be

doubt about the necessity of creating
the office of night matron at the city
JAIL
Mrs. Thorpe gives the following reasons
for the presence of a matron at night:
Most of the arrests are made at night
when it is necessary for a matron to
search the women and girls; young girls
are often frightened and hysterical alone
the women prisoners take advantage of
the matrons absence to be boisterous and
noisy at night; it is an imposition on the
jailer to call him upstairs to quiet con-
tinual disturbances.
ITO give satisfactory service" declares
Mrs. Thorpe, "a matron must have rest
at night She cannot be alert in the day
time after being awake half the night

WOMAN TO HELP

tuberculosis Expert.

Berlin, April 9.-Fraulein Zoch, the
one person in all the world who shares
with DIR. Friedrich Franz Friedmarn
the secret of his turtle serum cure
for tuberculosis is now enroute to New
York to set Alright the difficulties of
the bacteriologiSt with members of the
medical profession and skeptics who
hesitate in placing confidence in his
discovery.
The young woman is said to he pos
sessed of marvellous personality. She
is wealthy in her own right, is by
turns quick of speech or decision upon
important issues, and then seems OK
tremely taciturn.
Visitors at DIR. F'riedmann'S labora-
tory, those who sought data on his
discovery frequently found a buffet
that kept them far away from the
young physician.
F'raulein Zoch, who is travelling in
cognito, will land in Canada and later
join DIR. Friedman.
Friedman at Providence.
Providence. r. l., April 9.-Dr.
FREDERICK Franz Friedman, the not
ed consumptive cure man, is at the
Narrangansett hotel, where he will re-
main for the next week or so and treat
all corners possible, regardless of their
financial condition.
There have been hundreds of let
tiers, kilograms and phone message
from consumptives seeking appoint
ments and many offers of huge sums
for treatment, but the doctor has not
determined upon any fixed maximum
or minimum charge from those who
can afford to pay.
I'm New York. said DR.. Sturm, his
aide, lone conSumptiVe offered $1,000.
We did not consider a $1,000 fee ex-
cessive. The fee of course depends
partly upon the financial condition CT
the patient, and upon other factors,
too, as our trip 20 the United States is
in no sense a mercenary one"
Arrangements have been made for
treating private patients in the hotel,
which opportunity was not afforded
the doctor in New York.
Tomorrow he give his first clinic in
the state sanitarium at Burrellville,
whose superintendent, DR.. H. l..
Barnes says:
Scientific men have not as yet suf-
ficient knowledge in regard to Dr.
F'riedmann's treatment to either in
dorse or condemn it. We cannot
even be sure that harm may not re-
suit from it. Whether the treatrI ent
benefits our patients or not, it will at
least furnish evidence which will allow
us to judge its value"
