HOW III -MEDICAL

UUAHU Mind Hit OF GOV. MARSHALL State Executive Expected to Haul Members of Board of Medical Examination Up on the Green Carpet. "'REGULARS" IN FJGHT j 4 AGAINST OSTEOPATHS Tangle in State Department May, Result in Wholesale Resignations Board Has Caused Trouble Before. (Palladium Fperlal) Indianapolis, July 14. The members of the state board of medical examination and registration are about to be called up on the green carpet by Gov ernor Marshall, and the air about the governor's otBce today la charged with a dynamic expectancy that might break loose at any moment It appears that the governor's troubles with tila at. fat m.rili-.l hnirrf. which be thought he had fixed so that It would stay fixed, continue to rise up Again to harass him and Keep him in hot water as long as It Is made up as It la now. Recently the governor reappointed two of the old members of the board, at the request of the school tnents were made under curcumstances which caused him to think they would be pacificatory. But In the very first meeting the board held after the reappointments, which was since the semi-annual examinations, held this week, the olJ fight against the osteopaths broke out afresh, and It Is not at all unlikely that the board will be called before the governor and given an official currying that will cause them to wish they had allowed the osteopaths to go their way unmolested. Charges and! countercharges are being made until the governor has wearied of the entire affair and would give a good deal to have the entire board off hit hands. Objeet to Osteopaths. The trouble began this week when 41 members of the class applying for license to practice medicine In this state signed a petition asking that they be examined In all subjects by some one other than Dr. John F. fipaunburst . representative on the board of the osteopaths, setting forth as their reason that the state board of Michigan was on the point of breakIng the relationship whereby a certificate granted In Indiana entitles the holder to practice medicine In Michigan without another examination, because Spaunhurst was a member of the board, and that other states were preparing to take similar steps. The members of the board opposed to the osteopathic school outvoted Spaunhurst. and his one friend on the board and granted the petition, thereby delivering a well directed slap at the osteopathic school as well as depriving Spaunhurst of something like $150 of the revenue derived from the prep, aratlon of questions and the grading of manuscripts. ' The action of the board almost stunned the governor. Before acting on the petition the state board had shown it to the governor and had asked him what It should do about It. The governor declined officially to Interfere, but sent word that personally he did not think the petition well grounded. He thought It was a frame vp against the school of osteopathy, which the law gives representation on the board, and that evidently the signers ahd been Induced to sign It by some influence that was opposed to the osteopaths, and that if they were not so Induced they were not warranted in arriving at the conclusion which they had reached concerning Bpaunhurst. This, the governor thought, would be sufficient to cause the board to halt In any steps contemplated to carry the petition into effect, but there was no halting.

AFFINITIES RAMPANT Thirteen New York Wives in One Week Charge Their Affections Were Alienated. STRICT LAWS POWERLESS. New York, July 14. Affinities continue .to. be a necessary evil in New York, if one were to Judge from this frequency with which they have been thrusting themselves into the matrimonial arena of late. This week Frederick Falding, a wealthy engineer, was charged by his wife In one of the local courts with employing the ingenious plan of legally adopting a 25-year-old nurse as his daughter in order that she might have a legal right to preside over his household and be near him all the time. The wife says she was forced out of her home, and that her husband turned over to the woman who displaced her all his valuable patents and rights in inventions he owned. Thirteen different cases in which wives averred that affinities had dethroned tbem In the affections of their husbands In one week is a record for even so strenuous a town as New York. And this in spite of the law, which makes it an offense punishable by six months imprisonment to be convicted of being a full-fledged, dyed-in-the-wool affinity. COLLAR BONE BROKEN. James Moss, while riding a motorcycle yesterday afternoon on North Seventh street, ran into a wagon and broke his collarbone and arm. His injuries were dressed at Reid Memorial hospital. LIKE FATHER, LIKE SON. BB1BBBBSMBS Eaton. O., July 14. A dozen or more race fights, occasioned by tho feeling engendered by the big Jet-fries-Johnson fight at Reno, have taken place at the County Childrens home. Numbered among the thirty-five inmates in this Institution are two small colored boys, who have been made the victims of the "scrappy" tendencies of the white boys. - Superintendent G. W. Hardin has been equal to the uprising, however, and has succeeded in quelling the near-riotous feeling.

ENGLAND SHOCKED BY AWFUL CRIME AMERCIAtl DENTIST

Scotland Yard Detectives Are Working on Case Which Seems to Show Existence of a Modern Bluebeard. ACCUSED MAN RECEIVED EDUCATION IN INDIANA Police the World Over Directed to Watch Out for Dr. Crippin, Who Has Disappeared With'His Pretty Typist. London, July 14. The finding of the body of a woman, or possibly the bodies of two women In the basement of the home of Dr. Hawley Crippin, an American dentist, aged fifty, in the beautiful suburb of North London, has developed what the police authorities pronounce a baffling murder mystey! Crippin has mysteriously disappeared and the police are also searching for his pretty young typist, Miss Ethel Leneve, who is thought to have accompanied him in his flight. Much secrecy is being maintained regarding the facts in the case, but two coffins were sent to Crlppln's home today, which led 'to the belie that two bodies were found instead of one as was first reported. Crippin married Kunigunde Makomaskl, an American actress, known on the stage as Bell Ellmore, in Philadelphia some time ago. She was born in Brooklyn. When she , married Dr. Crippin, in accordance with a provision of her grandfather's will he took the title of Baron Makomaski. The couple then came to London where the woman continued her stage career and acted as an official of the Music Hall artists' guild. They went to live at 39 Hilldrop Crescent, North London. She disappeared last February and Crippin reported her as having died while on a. trip to .the continent. Shortly afterwards a - second Mrs. Crippin was Introduced and was seen as recently as last Saturday at the Crippin home. Crippin has been officially charged with murder and mutilation and police authorities all over the world have been requested to watch for him especially in the United States. .Born in Michigan. Crippin was born at Coldwater, Mich., was educated in Indiana, and had subsequently received degrees from . several colleges, including Ann Arbor. He had practiced in several American cities as an eye and ear specialist and at one time was representative of the Munyon Homeopathic Remedy company at Philadelphia, . The Scotland Yard detectives theory Is that both the first and second Mrs. Cripplns were murdered and that Crippin disappeared with his pretty stenographer. All the women concerned were much younger than Crippin. The case is more mysterious than the Porter Charlton tragedy. Description of Crippin. Here is the description of the missing man: "Hawely Harney Crippin. alias Peter Crippin, and Frankell Crippin. an American doctor; aged 50 years; five feet three inches; complexion fresh; hair light brown. Inclined to be sandy and scanty, bald on top, rather long moustache; mark on bridge of nose; wears false teeth and gold rimmed spectacles; speaks with slight American accent; wears hat on back of head; Sir Melville MacNaughton the chief of the Scotland Yard criminal investigating department, who is directing the big force of detectives handling the case, today made another daylight examination of the premises, especially the cellar where the bones were found, which was photographed by flashlight last night after the mystery had been discovered. .; The bones which today were given to experts for minute examination, are apparently, according tofhe police first statements those of a woman of 27 years.' Bell Elmore was 33. Barring a mistake here is one of the most baffling phases of the case. If Bell Elmore was not the victim, who was? Where is Crippin) And where is his pretty wife? - Every route leading from London today is under close guard, and all ships that have sailed for America in the last few days have been communicated with, if possible by wireless, police taking the same precautions as they did in the hunt for Porter Charlton, the young American now under arrest In New Jersey, confessed slayer of his beautiful wife, Mary Scott Castle Charlton. Bell Elmore's maiden name was Kunigunde Makomaski. She was born in Brooklyn, N. Y, and took the name of Bell Elmore after going- on the stage where she gained a reputation as a soprano singer. Before 1SS9 the department of agriculture was simply a bureau. Before the fiftieth congress adjourned it passed a bill making the bureau a department and the commissioner of agriculture a secretary and a members Of the cabinet.

INSANE PATIENT . KILLED BY TRAIN Mrs. Mary Saunders, Inmate of Easthaven, Hurls Self Before a Train. SHE MEETS INSTANT DEATH

WOMAN HAD THRICE BEFORE TRIED TO TAKE HER OWN LIFE WAS THOUGHT TO BE RECOVERING FROM HER DISORDER. After thrice attempting suWde Mrs. Mary Saunders, of Anderson, an inmate of Easthaven. succeeded this morning, when she threw herself In front of east bound Pennsylvania train No. 14, due in Richmond at 9:55. She was instantly killed, but the body was not badly mangled. There was a wound on the side of her head, thought to be a fracture of the skull. The unfortunate woman was walking with a number of inmates on the lawn near the east end of the grounds. She dashed for the track as the train approached and the guard was unable to save her. The train was moving at a high speed and the pilot struck the woman a glancing blow, hurling her to one aide. Easthaven authorities state that the woman attempted suicide three times before being brought to Easthaven in 1907, but after she had been in the asylum several months she improved greatly and was released. She was returned here in April because relatives were forced to keep a constant watch to prevent self-destruction. It was stated at Easthaven that a guard was kept near the woman at all times because it was feared she would attempt suicide. However, her condition seemed to be improving and she would probably have been released in a few months. She was not classed a3 violent. The deceased was 53 years of age and made her home with a son at Anderson previous to being brought to Richmond. Mrs. C. C. Cain of 30S Kinsey street, is a sister. The body will be taken to Anderson this evening for burial. TAG DAYS UHDEH BAH Mayor Gaynor, of New York, Says They Are Not Nice For Young Ladies. NEVER TRIED IN GOTHAM New York, July 14. 'Tag Days" may be all right for the seashore or the country resort, but Mayor Gaynor thinks it is no proper divertisement for a woman or a young girl in New York, even though it be inspired by such a praiseworthy object as rais-l ing money for a charitable purpose. . i In tabooing a resolution of the board of aldermen designed to allow it in one of the boroughs, in aid of a hospital fund, the mayor said "the authorization sought was of doubtful legality and more than doubtful propriety. The practice of allowing women and young girls to accost strangers on the street and extract money from them, no matter how worthy the cause, should not be permitted." "Tag . Days" have never been tried in New York, but have proved successful mediums for the collection of money in a number of small outlying cities. : ANOTHER DIVORCE SUIT. Alleging that she has been abandoned and treated In a cruel and inhuman manner, Phoebe A. Mailing has filed suit in the circuit court for divorce from her husband, Charles Marting. He is charged with striking her and using profane language in her presence, also with charging her with violation of the marriage vows. They were married on May 15, 1902 at M uncle and the woman says he left her on March 8. 1910. THE OUTLOOK 287 Fifth Ave, New York, : Office of Theodore Roosevelt.
