.ORv|LLE HAROLD TO
SING HERE TUESDAY
Indiana's Son to Entertain
Local Music Lovers
At Coliseum.

Orville Harold, one of Indiana's
sons, who brought distinction to his
state, will sing at the Coliseum Tues
day night Once before he appeared
here, and the Gennett theatre was
packed to hear the famous tenor. Indi-
cations are that the Coliseum will be
crowded when the premier tenor ap-
pears.
Harold is not only a tenor of ex-
ceptional ability, but withal a man.
The appended incident which happen
ed in New York recently illustrates
vividly the kind of man he is.
Emma Trentini stepped toward a
nance of 'The Firefly" the other night
Harold, won't you come and sing a
song for Tony Colombo?"
While the auditors were craning
their necks to see whom the singer
was addressing, Orville Harold, who
has been graduated into grand opera,
began to sing I'm Falling in Love
With Someone" which he had sung in
Naughty Marietta" in which Mile
Trentini also appeared. The orchestra
fell in with him, and when he had fin
ished the applause was so great that
he stepped upon the stage and repeat
ed the song, while Mile Trentini dane
ed as she had done in that operetta.
If Harold is modest about his voice
and reputation as a tenor, Harry E.
Parrish, his manager, is not.
Absolutely the greatest English
singing tenor in the world" Parrish
declared to an interested audience of
music lovers. He will be recognized
as such the world over in few years.
Hammerstein has him now under an
eight-years' contract. and he knows a
star when he hears one"
The sale of tickets for the concert
Tuesday night at the Coliseum has
been large.
Richmond's music lovers hail with
delight his appearance here.

Innocent Charge.

On January 2. 1912. the mayor fined
George Becker 81 and costs for fall
ing to properly record a dog which
he owned. Becker protested that he
was innocent, but the court saw other
wise. Now Becker has found the neces-
sary evidence to show that he was
not guilty of the charge and the may
or is trying to figure out a way to re-
turn Becker's $11.
Becker found a receipt recently
showing that he had paid So as the tax
for his dog At the time of the trial he
could not produce the receipt and be-
cause he did not know that there was
a duplicate at the court house, he sub
mitted to the fine.
The mayor and city attorney Bond
believe Becker could be Reimbursed
by making an appropriation OF s11 out
of the city's fund, and they will bring
the matter up at the next council
meeting. There is no way by which
Becker's fine could be returned as IS

Fee splitting Is going on in Rich

time and will continue, | suppose, "
said local physician who refused to
permit his name to be used; there are
not many men guilty of it, but those
few who are have been very active.
1t is an injustice to the patient, dis
grace to the practitioner and blow
at the integrity of the profession. | be-
lieve every fee splitter should be dealt
with most drastically."
AS defined by local surgeons and
physicians fee splitting is a secret con-
tract between surgeons and the prac-
tftioner who refers the case to him
whereby the practitioner receives a
percentage of the fee paid the sur
geon without making the arrangement
understood to the patient.
Uproots Profession.
According to those anxious to uproot
1t from the profession, this breaks
down the integrity of both practitioner
and surgeon. The patient is made an
unconscious victim of piece of com
mercial bargaining. An incompetent
surgeon can buy practice by paying
higher percentage than competitor.
A practitioner will be led to refer
cases to surgeon which are not oper-
able. Often a higher price will be
charged for an operation than the
case deserves in order to enable the
surgeon to split with the physician in
charge. This practice, which was un-
animously condemned in the house of
delegates at the recent state meeting
of the Indiana association, is given
scant approval by Richmond physi-

Dr.. J. c. Blossom, president of the
Wayne County Medical association,
dictated the following statement to a
Palladium reporter
II have no personal knowledge Of
fee splitting in Richmond and have
never given or accepted, asked or of
fered division. The thing Is utterly
wrong in principle. 1t isn't common,
ordinary honesty.
ANY division known and authorized
by the patient cannot be called in ques-
tion, but where the contract is made
and kept secret it can't help but be
wrong.
The matter was discussed at our
Wayne county meeting three or four
months ago and the practice wholly
condemned"
II think there has been fee splitting
in Richmond" said DR.. j. n. kinsey.
''It always has been going on and al
ways will, suppose. don't think it is
an evil. l believe this agitation has
been started by dissatisfied physicians
who have themselves been guilty.
