The The Unknown Man Who Died From Morphine Poisoning at the City Rece:ving Hospital Tuesday Morning. sicians regarding the treatment usually | row happened th's way: administered to patients -uffering from a dose of morphine, the man should have been worked upon until he died, and should not have o:en put to bed under restoratives, as was done. Accordinz to Harrold Kinchner, land- lord of the house, it waa first known that | the man had taken pdison throuzh com- plaiuts made by George Wilson, a guest, He notifieJ the landlord that tie person | in the adjoining room was breathing so beavily t.at it was impossible to sleep. Kinchner heard the labored breathing, knocked on the door and the noise ceased. He returned to his office, but in a few minutes another guest made a complaint. lnvestigations were made, and it was seen that the occupant of the room had taken poi-on. Kinchner imm-=diately went for an offi- cer and had the ambulance called. The unconscious man was taken to the hospi- tal, but the efforts of the physicians were without avail and the man died within three hours. At the hospital Dr. James F. Kearney took charege of the-patient. At the end oi half an hour he was assisted by Dr. Gates. Dr. Fitzgibbon was in the room at the time but did not assist. Dr. Kearney said last evening: «] fvas not on duty last night but hap- pened to drop into the hospital. The attending physicians had stepped out for a moment, but did not return until after the arrival ot the patient. Wien the patient arrived I immediately went to work, and was soon assisied by Dr. Gates and Dr. Howard. After it was seen that nothing could be done the man was piacad in bed ana his death was awaited. He died shortiy afier.” Dr. Howard said the man was beyond aid wuen he arrived at the hospital, but that, though without avaii, all was done that is usually done in cases suffer- ing from morphine poisoning. He said: ““When the patient arrived he was first treated by Dr. Kearney, but I soon assisted him in an endeavor to resuscitate the man. When it was seen after two hours’ work that it was impossible to bring the patient from under ihe effects of the poison efforts at restoration were stopped and be died shortly after. Every- thing was don» that could be or is dor:e in such cases. The man had taken over an ounce of landanum and from his appear- ance the drug had been in his system more than an hour. His system had ab- sorbed so much of the poison that an antidote wrs without avai, and in my judgment it was 1mpossible to save the man’s life.”” ‘The treatment in such case,’” said Dr. J. B. Gallagher, “1s tokeep working with stimulants, antidotes and aruficial respi- ration until it is seer that the patient is dead or about to die. Many times a pa- tient is o far gone that it 1s impossible to even gainsigns of life; but, again, a man may seem to te dead, when treatment re- stores life. The success depends upon the patient and the amount ol poison taken, as well as the time the drug has been in the system.” The deceas2d registered at the Branch House about 4 o’ciock Monday afternoon and was in an intoxicated condition when he first applied for a room. He was dis- covered to be suffering from poisoning at 9 o’clock and was then removed to the hospital. During the afiernoon of the same day be borrowed $150 on a silver walch at a pawnbroker’s shoy on Fourth street and signed a receipt as Harry Spencer. When examined at the Morgue the name of Hayes was found on bis cloth- ing and it is now supposed that he isa gambler of that name from Portland, He bad a berth ticket from Portland en route to Butte City dated October 25. The body is still atthe Morgue awaitin g identifica- tion. The Receiving Hospital has no stomach pump, except an old one that has long been out of order. It has no bag of oxy- gen and no galvanic battery. These use- ful adjuncts to modern restorative hos- pitals, without which they are like Ham- let with Hamlet lelt out, Lavé been known to prove useful in restoring patients whose livey have been despaired of. On last Sunday nigbt the Italian Philo- dramatic Company gave a performance in the Bush-street Theater. The piece of the evening was entitled “The Hotei of the Vagabonds of San Francisco,” and was supposed to be a Lighly sensational comic drama. It proved to be more sensational than any of the members of the company dreamed that it would be, ior the play had not progressed far before there was a fight in real earnest, and as a result E. Bouini, one of the actors, has teen arrested for batteiy, and Arturo Biagi, the director of thé company, has been compelied 1o keep to the seclusion of his cause of a black eye which he got s. It was in the first act that the trouble began. Biagi, who was playiue the part of the landlord of :he Hotel de Vagabond, was insulted, so he claims, by Bonini and a friend of the latter's of the name of Trava-lio. Travaglio was not a member of the company, but was invited to take part to fill out the cast. Travaglio is em- ployed as acomposiioron the Messengero, an Italian paper, whose owner, Signor Ure<pk some time ago served three months in jail for maligning the editor of I'Italia, a 1.val newspaper. When Bonini, who assumed the role of th: poet in the play, came on the stage he asked Travaglio for a newspaper. Ira- vaglio handed him one, which he returned with the remark that it was nothing but a yellow journal or something to that ei- fect. Travaglio is a brother-in-law of Ed- itor Crespi, and he saw a chance to give the rival editor a rab. Taking the paper he replied tnat it was no good; thagit was the organ of t.ue clique. These words made Biagia’s Italian blood boi!, as that part of thedialogue had beed interpoiated by the (wo enemies of I'Italia, the paper with which Biagi was on friendly terms, When the curtain was rung down Biagi expostulated with Travaglio, but got no satisfaction. Biagi felt aggrieved and when tue curtain rose on the secona scene he was ready for war. As the landlord, he was attempting to collect his bills from his boarders, bnt with about as much suc- cess as the landlords of most bum hotels meet. He durned the poet, but Bonint proffered rhymesinsiead of *'rhino.” This was accoraing to the booz and would have been all right had he confined him- self to the lines of the piece. Instead of doing so, he got off some doggerei which related to Coliector Cassasa of the Italian Beneficiencia Soc.ety, who is now in jail for recklessly handlir g the funds. This added to tne wrath of Biagi, who was attempting to have tie puay finished without invcking the hostility ot any of the Italian coiony, and according to the statements of Bonini and his friends of- f:red the poet a gratuitous insult by tell- ing him to go to work so that he would be able to pay his hotel bills. These lines were not in the play, and as Binoni had been out of work for several weeks he con- sidered the advice as offensive, and re- tailated by telling Landlord Biagi to go and see President Cavagnaro of the Bene- ficiencia Socictv and try and get Cassasa out of jail. Biagi had a watchchain made of a brass chain used to loop back win- dow curiains and during the dialogue the chain_fell to the floor and was broken. He gathered the pieces up and renewed bis dsmand for the settlement of the board bill, and when Bonini stated that he had setiled the score with his verses he threw the chain away in disgust and in the direction of Bonini. At the end of the scene the men met in the wings, and a wordy war ensued, dur- ing which Bonini accused Biaga of cater- ing to the high-toned people, and re- minded him of the time when he was the friend of the anarchi-ts, “I am an enarchist,” said Bonin Iam not two-faced about it either. Two hours afterward when Biagi went to nis dressing-room to get ready for his journey home. Boniniconfronted him and exnibiting pieces of the brass chain sa'd: ~I am going to make vouswallow th.s.” He then sizuck Biagi in the right eye with hi fist and the actor f:1l to the floor. Bonini jumped on him and was proceed- ing 10 beat him when E. Maggio, a friend of the fallen man, interfered and pushed Bonini away.

A New Yorker, who lately went on an excursion to New Mexico with a loé of railroad men, in a special car, reflected that alkali dust and champagne always upset his digestion, and determined to buy a box of Ripans Tabules at a St. Louis drug store. *How do t| esesell?”henskedofflmdmg%is& 5 ‘“We sell a lot of ’em,” was the xgplfi ““That gentleman who just went out bought a box. He is Commodore J. E. M. Maury of New York, who ison this New Mexican excursion.” As days went by, our friend took a Tabule after each meal and one before going to bed, and was as regular as a top. So too was the Commodore. Ina ‘'ew days, however, most of the party suffered more or less from over-eating, over-smoking, alkali dust, want of exercise and indigestion. Nearly every one complained of constipation, and the Commodore, like a good angel, dgmduoed his box from time to time, and in every case relief followed hxsim ly minis- ns. * How does it happen,” asked the Commodore of our friend, *‘that you alone escape the inconvenience all the others suffer from? Only you and I escape.” But our friend was foxy and would not admit that he too was a slave to Ripans Tabules ; but all that carry them now when they go where meals are irregular and the water is bitter or poor.
