HE NEVER DID MUCH
Ed Davis Only Shot Mexican and
Sold Liquor.

Because he never did anything but
shoot a Mexican and sell liquor, con-
trnry to the dignity of the state OF
Kansas, Ed Davis, colored. wants a
parole. He files application for the
conditional release this morning.
Davis has just completed his time
for getting into trouble in the Mexi-
can incident and is beginning on
liquor sentence. He claims that he
has a wife and two small children who
are dependent upon him for support.
The county attorneys office says that
Davis's wife and children are famous
for the number of times that they
have been cited in applications for pa

Ethel Davis, that Archie McCallum, a
North Topeka huckster, claims he was
frisked for $155 and later woke up in
a weed patch several blocks distant.

Joseph Hillstrom from two to ten
o'clock on the afternoon of January

took place in Salt Lake City. The
general belief at police headquarters

DOCTOR DID RIGHT
Chicago Physician Is ExOner-
ated in Baby Case.
COrOner's Jury Says He Was
Justified in Every Way.

Chicago, Nov. 20.-Six physicians
comprising a coroner's jury. have held
that DR.. H. ]. HaiseIden, who permit
ted an infant, Allan John BoIlinger, to
die when an operation might have saw
ed him to a life of unhappiness as a
defective, was morally and officially
justified in not performing the opera
tons which his conscience did not
sanction.
An implied disapprova1 of a course
wherein physician might determine
II it was or was not desirable for a
patient to live, was contained in the
concluding paragraph of the verdict:
I'VE believe that the physicians
highest duty is to relieve suffering,
and to save or prolong life"
The Verdict in Full.
The verdict in full follows:
First we find from the evidence
presented and from personal investi-
cation that Allan J. Bollinger died
from the effects of imperforate anus.
Second, the essential malformations
of the body of Allan J. Bo1linger were:
"Imperforate anus.
Infusion of the two kidneys into
one, located on the left side and with
a single ureter.
and of the external auditory canal.
"a defective development of the skin
over the shoulders, especially the right,
causing an apparent shortening Of the
neck.
Absence of all or part of the
coccyx, and,
Absence of the right testicle.
Third, the acquired pathological
conditions were:
Small extradural hemorrhages in
the spinal canal.
Small sub-pleural hemorrhages.
"a discharge from the nose and the
coroners physician reports an area of
hemorrhage in the pia mater in the
left SYLVAN fissure.
Fourth, we believe that a prompt
operation would have prolonged. and
perhaps saved the life of the child.
Fifth, we find no evidence from the
have become mentally or morally de-
fective.
Sixth, several Of the physical de-
fects might have been improved by
plastic operations.
Fully Within Rights.
Seventh, we believe that morally
and ethically, surgeon is fully within
his rights in refusing to perform any
operations which his conscience will
not sanction. We find no reason to
believe that the parents of Allan J.
Bollinger were deprived of the priv
ilege of consultation.
Eighth, we recommend strongly
that in all doubtful cases of this char
acter a consultation of two or more
surgeons of known reputation for skill,
ethical standing and broad experience
should be held to decide upon the adj
visa bility or inadvisa bility of operative
Ninth, We believe that the ply
sician's highest duty is to relieve suf-
fering and to save or prolong life"

Mr.. Fitzpatrick had entered into
negotiations with his publishers, but
they refused to publish the song with

Washington, October %, 1915.
my Dear Sir: Replying to your
letter of October 10, the president
asks me to say to you that he would
be very much obliged if the song to
which you refer were not published.
He would be very much distressed if
it were. L am sure you will fully I'M
