WEIGHT OF ENGINE USED TO

HEATING PIER.

Perched on the outer end of Keat.
ing's pier at Daytona Beach for over
an hour Wednesday forenoon. while
excited men were trying to rescue him
after over 100 feet of the pier had
fallen, was the trying experience of
l.. d. Curran, of Elmira, N. Y.
1t seems that an engine used on the
pier for the purpose Of operating a
pile driver was of more weight than
the pier would hold and over 100 feet
of the structure fell leaving Mr.. Cur
ran, who was at the time fishing, sep
arated from terra frma. A fish line
was cast out to him and after he had
caught the end of the line a rope was
tied to it and Mr.. Curran then hauled
the rope out and tied it to the remain
ing outward span Of the pier The
shore end of the rope was then mad"
fast and Mr. Curran worked his way
across the space hand over hand. 4
heavy surf was running at the time
and had Mr. Curran lost his hold, his
life would probably have been the
penalty.

contention that detectives should be per

by Elizabeth Hamilton Muncie, NJ. D., Phi.

In reference to Dr. Haiselden's decision
in the Bollinger case. can only remark in
the words of Shakespeare, THE quality Of
mercy is not strained
That Dr. Haiselden positively refused to
operate upon the Bolilnger baby under the
unusual circumstances proves he has done
a conscientious service to humanity and
greater service to the babe himself. Even
Job of old, who was not born defective,
cursed the day he was born and We cannot
help but believe this child would have done
more than Job.
'1f l am properly informed OF this Bol-

to a monstrosity and not child. This
fact exempts the physician from any
charge of murder Inasmuch as monstros-
tiles are not operated on in privates prac-

privilege should be granted to those In

ing the comment Of the nation.
Had the child simply a clubfoot. a
withered hand or a similar defect, this
physician would have done all in his power
to save the life as would any other con-
scientious physician.
THE various opinions Of DR.. Haiselden's
attitude toward this creature show the
readiness of the non-defective class to pass
Judgment without hearing. Those who
have called the good doctor murderer
