His desire to give costly pres
ents to Miss Octavia Mitchell of
Tacoma was the cause of b. f..
Nelson, former night agent here
for the American Express, steal-
ing packages of feminine wearing
apparel from express shipments,
according to Detective Captain
John Strickland Saturday.
Miss Mitchell was arrested Fri
day afternoon, on warrant
charging her with receiving stolen
goods, and admitted that Nelson
had given her more than 5000
worth of gowns, lingerie and
shoes, the police say. Nearly all
of the stolen articles have been
returned, through Miss Mitchell.
Nelson was arrested a week
ago at Seattle, after he had been
dismissed by the express company
in Tacoma. He is said to have
admitted to the police that he
opened packages containing spe-
cial shipments of women's apparel
to Tacoma stores, and removed
part OF the contents.

CITY TO FIND
COST OF LINE

To determine just how much 1t
will cost the city to build an ex-
tension OF the municipal car line
across the tideflats, Mayor Faw-
cett announced Saturday that he
would appoint Commissioner Gro
men and City Engineer Nicholson
as committee to make the sur
vey.
The estimate will be made at
the request OF T. r. & P. Officials,
who refuse to discuss the Ques-
ton Of paying per cent annually
on the cost of the line, until they
know just what the sum will be.
A. w. Leonard, vice president
OF the company, head Of the Stone
Webster syndicate on the ocast
w. II. McGrath, another vice pres
ident, and Supt. f. j. Rounds, dis
cussed the tideflats extension with
Mayor Fawcett Friday afternoon.
Mayor Fawcett declared Satur-
day that II the cost of building a
right of way on 18th street for the
extension was too great, he would
ask the county commissioners for
franchise on Lincoln ave., which
is now being filled in.

In such horrible form.

ISOLATION joining hands and even
perjuring their souls in desperate
effort to save and protect one who
committed so black a crime. In
my one years search l found one
man brave enough to face the scorn
of the medical trust by coming
forward and testifying to the
truth and from remarks over
heard at the trial which were
passed by other doctors it must
have been an ordeal.
l found any number who con-
domned the deed as absolutely I'M
justifiable but lacked the moral
courage to come forward and pub
licly declare the fact, thereby
helping to clean out the medical
association and making their pro-
fession the honorable body that
it should be.
Their expert testimony given at
the trial prove conslusively that
the doctors think we are ignorant
enough to swallow anything they
choose to give us.
But there is one thing we can
do. since the state laws are made
to protect the M. ID. and not his
victims. and that is we mothers
who desire the welfare and pro-
lection of our children can unite
into as strong If not stronger or

and rid ourselves of the nuisance

AGAIN AFTER
5-FOOT STRIP

A five-foot strip of land separ-
ating the Griffin Wheel Co. 3
plant from the end of a street in
South Tacoma, caused Stephen
Appleby, Tacoma banker, to ap-
pear before the council Saturday.
Appleby asked the city to con-
denim the strip and open the street
since the owner of the land will
not let the Wheel Co. cross it.
The city council refused, as it
had done once before, to condemn
the land and force property own
ers who receive no benefits, to
pay the bill. 1t agreed to learn
the owners price of the strip,
however, and may buy the land
outright to end the controversy.
The Wheel Co. has threatened
to move away IL the city does not
open the street.

A Remedy
EDITOR THE TINES.

EDITOR THE TINES:
Speaking of doctors, I have GER
tainly had my experience with
them and believe that 1t is high
time we common, ignorant people.
as they choose to call us, were
awakening to realization of how
absolutely we are at the mercy OF
the M. DIS and of bringing about
ways and means of protecting our
selves against the undesirable
practitioners.
Present laws make it almost i'm
possible for us to defend ourselves
In the slightest degree against any
thing doctor chooses to hand us.
He can come in your own house
and murder one of your family
then garnishee your wages and col
lect his price Of execution and you
cannot voice the slightest objection
tunless you don't care how much
energy you waste).
Last summer my little baby boy.
age four months. was sick with a
cold and slight fever and I called
In DR.. s. who proceeded to pre-
scribe medicine which he said was
harmless, but would pull baby
through all right.
After giving the third box of II
under the doctors instructions the
baby went into commissions.
then sent for another doctor
who, after examining the baby and
the medicine, told us the medicine
was calOmel and that the baby
was suffering from murcurial poi
soning.
The baby died the next morning
in horrible commissions, after hav-
ing taken So quarter-grain calomel
tablets in a week.
While the baby was in the throes
OF death and being unable to get
another doctor, we again called DR..
s., who arrived after baby had
passed away.
Not knowing that we had had
another doctor and thinking we
were still ignorant of the nature
of the drug and knowing also that
the baby had taken the So tablets
again asserted that "they were per-
fectly harmless and that the baby
could have taken them all at once
and they wouldn't have hurt him. /"
We brought suit against DR.. s.
and six doctors testified under oath
that calomel is perfectly harm less
and can be taken by the teaspoon
full without serious result. There
isn't a doctor book in existence but
which gives that statement the lie.
or course these men giving ex-
pert testimony all disagreed with
the written authorities and a few
were egotistical enough to claim
to be equal II not superior to said
authority, etc.
The second doctor we had, who
told us the baby had murcurial poi
soning (and by the way, he made
the same statement only much
stronger to two other disinterested
parties) testified under oath that
the baby died of gastroenterilis,
and that II was we who told him
we were giving calomel and that
he had never said the baby died OF
murcurial poisoning.
