Tobin, wife of the prominent lawyer and clubman, is an- noyed over the loss of two suit cases | which she entrusted to the care of | Frank L. Carpenter, a hackman, on Friday afternoon. She engaged Car- penter's hack at the Third and Town- | send streets depot on Friday to drive her to the residence of Edward R. Di- mond at 2204 Pacific avenue, but when she reached Third and Market streets she stopped the hack and told Carpen- ter to take the two suit cases to 2204 Pacific avenue, as she Inteaded to do some shopping. { When Mrs. Tobin reached Dimond's residence she was annoyed to find that | tite hackman had pot arrived with the suit cases. After waliting for some time the police were notified and De- tectives Matheson and Mulcahey were detailed on the case. They found Car- penter late Friday night in a drunken condition and he could give them no ! information about the suit cases. He | was locked up in the City Prison till he sobered up. | Yesterday morning Carpenter said he remembered asking a bartender in some saloon to look after the suit cases till he called for them. The de- tectives took Carpenter to several sa- Joons he is in the hablt of frequenting, | but no trace of the missing suit cases { could be found. WARRANT OUT FOR ARREST OF FRANK FULLEN FOR FORGERY Police Have Been Searching for Him for Several Weeks, but Without Success. F. H. Colburn, 208 Parrott building, representing the National Bank of t Pacific, Claus Spreckels building, o tained a warrant from Police Judge |Mognn yesterday for the arrest of Frank L. Fullen, an ex-soldier. on a charge of forgery. It is alleged that Fullen presented a check for $1800 to the National Bank of the Pacific for payment. It was drawn on the First National Bank of Fairmont, W. Va, | made payable to Fullen and bore the signature’of “Thomas H. Fullen” The check was sent for collection and was returned with the information that Thomas H. Fullen's signature was a forgery. The police have been searching for Fullen, as he has been working other banks In the same way. His descrip- tion has been published several times in the Police Bulletin and a reward has been offered by the Bankers’ Assocla- tion for his arrest. It is said tl he | has obtained altogether about $5000 |from different banks by means of | forged checks. | he had been living, on October 4 in the WAKES EXAMPLE DOCS SUBIECT OF A BELLBOY, TO APPENDICITIS Walter Brooks Sentenced by Judge Dunne to Serve Four Years on Burglary Charge STEALS FROM A GUEST Other Prisoners Punished. Ineluding John MeCarthy, Who Receives Life Term Among the prisoners sentenced yes- terday by Judge Dunne was Walter Brooks, a bellboy, who was convicted of a charge of burglary. So many cases of bellboys charged with simi- lar offense have been in the criminal courts of recent years that the Judge determined to make an example of Brooks and he sentenced him to serve four years in Folsom penitentiary. In former cases, owing to the youth of the defendants, most of them received & light sentence or were allowed to go on probation. While a bellboy at the Dolores Hotel, 532 O'Farrell street, Brooks on February 4 entered the room of Mrs. Lucretia E. Liningen and stole some articles of jewelry.

SEYMOUR WINS JUDGMENT AGAINST THE FAIR HEIRS | Judge Hebbard Holds That Former Captain of Detectives Is Entitled to $11,100. Superior Jud:> Hebbard has entered judgment for $11,100 in favor of ex- Captain of Detectives John Seymour and against Mrs. Theresa Oelrichs and Mrs. Virginia Vanderbilt, heirs of the late James G. Fair. The judgment rep- resents the salary Seymour would have collected as manager of the SBan Fran- cisco holdings of the Fair estate had he not been discharged by the defendants vears prior to the expiration of ‘the contract entercd into by him with the late Charles L. Fair and ratified by Mrs. Oelrichs and Mrs. Vanderbfit. It was on June 15, 1802, that Seymour resigned his position as chlef of the local detective force to accept employ- ment as the manager of the Fair estate at a monthly salary of $300. This position he retained until after the death of | Charles L. Fair, when he was dismissed, Mrs. Oelrichs and Mrs. Vanderbilt hold- ing that the services of a manager were no longer required. Then Seymour filed suit, but Mrs. Oelrichs and Mrs. YVanderbilt con- tended that Seymour could not recover, as the contract upon which he based his action had not been reduced to writing. Judge Hebbard held, however, that the oral contract was sufficient and gave Seymour judgment. Seymour is now chief of the Weils- Fargo detective force. e Stout Ladies! 17 years ago I reduced my weight 53 pounds, 8 inches, walst 6 inches and hips 10 by a simple, harmless remedy.

Diseases of Human Beings Descend to the Lower Ani- mals in Various Forms SURGERY FOR BEASTS Glass Eyes, False Teeth and Artificial Limbs Supplied by Skilled Veterinarian —_— Epecial Dispatch to The Call. LONDON, March 24.—Dogs with false teeth and wooden legs and cats with glass eyes are the Jlatest things in veterinary science. Modern medicine has lent itself, especially through Dr. Frederick Hobday of London, to ‘the treatment of animal suffering, and ev- ery appliance that can add to the pleas- ures, subtract from the cares, or mul- tiply the comforts of animal life—to put the case arithmetically—is now brought forward by the veterinarian. For example, the X-ray machine is now used to locate swallowed pins and needles in the bodies of ailing kittens, while the iuventor's skill has been called upon to manufacture feeding bottles for nursing pupples. Dr. Hobday, whose letters of F. R. C. V. 8. and F. R. 8. E. stand for the most eminent degrees in veterinary practice, accomplishes many marvels in his methods of treating animals. For instance, with reference to supplying glass eyes to the animal world, he has bad some extremely successful results. The removal of the eyes of animails with the minimum of pain is accomplished by means of the usual anesthetics ap- plied as in human cases; while local applications of cocaine are also utilized. | After the eyes have been taken out, proper glass ones, suiting the kind of animals, are inserted and the animal goes about its ordinary avécation with apparent comfort, As a matter of fact, the insertion of a glass eye in the orbit of an aristo- cratic pug or Blenheim spanel gives it a rather distingue effect—almost mon- ocular in its impressiveness. Doubtless, | before many vears, it will be considered | quite the thing for dogs belonging to | the fashionable class to wear glasi eyes merely for their decorative effect. | There seems to be little attempt on the | part of the surgeon to relleve pain by | total annihiiation—as some animal lov- ers advocate in cases of severe injury— | but he strives to foster the spark of | life where it glimmers ever so faintly. In supplying cats and dogs with glass eyes, Dr. Hobday takes particular care to see that the two eyes of the animals match in color, size and other charac- | teristics. Cats are given eyes that have elongated pupils, while any amount of variety is obtained with reference to dogs, great and small. What is re- markable in this connection is the fact that the animals manifest no-discom- fort in using these substitutes for vislon; saving that they display great | | carefulness in avoiding danger to the ! artificial organ. In the insértion Ot glass “eyes into the' visages of bfs cat and dog friends, | the learned vetefinarian empJoys anes- thetics, of course, He has discovered that the ordinary means of anesthesia work- well .with. animals; but- chloro- form is more suitable to dogs than to cats; though the giving of chloroform | to pug dogs is not so easy, owing to | the blunted shape of the nose. A spe- clal cone-shaped muzzle, to which is | connected a vaporizing tube, bas beeén | designed by the surgeon for adminis- | tering animal anesthetics. The muzzle' |is formed of leather and fine wire gauze, land vapor of chloroform or ether is | pumped into it, the animal thus being | compelled to breathe it. | Doctor Hobday has found that the | larger dogs suffer no ill effects from | the administration of chloroform, which {1s safer than ether; but cats and young | puppies do not always survive thc ad- { ministration. For cats, he used a mix- | ture of alcohol, chloroform and ether. | In giving chloroform to upward of 1200 l‘doga at the London Veterinary College, Dr. Hobday only had five fatalities dur- ing five years; while in giving the an- | esthetic to cats he had three deaths out | of 120 cases. Under such circumstances, | 1t would seem advisable for cats to give |a wide berth to chloroform, in ‘epite of | their nine-lived endowment. ! Some very curious phenomena have | been observed in the anesthetization of {animals. There are four distinct | stages. The first.is one of. great sur- | prise &na alarm, and the animals usu- {ally hold their breath for some little | time, belng unwilling to inbale the | vapor. This is especially the case with | cats and rabbits. The second stage, in | which the animals are ifi a semi-con- | | scious condition, is accompanied by great excitement and violent strug- ! | gling, after which the patient passes |into coma. The next stage ensues, dur- | ipg which there is great danger from he possibility of paralyzing some of | the great vital centers, | It Is very evident that the administra- | tion of these pain-killers to animals { should only be done by persons well | skilled in thelr application.

In all his operations, Dr. Hobday has his restoratives ready in case there | should be any sign of failure of respir- | ation, or of the heart. The best medi- | cines for bringing about revival of ani- | mals in danger from death by anesthe- | sia are strong ammonia vapor, amyl | nitrate, hydrocyanic acid and strych- nine, Among the most interesting opera- tions performed by Dr. Hobday are those by which he supplies cats and dogs with artificial limbs, and sets thelr | dislocated tails. He has been so suc-; cessful in amputating the legs of ani- | mals and supplying them with new | ones that before long a wooden-legged dog will cease to be a novelty, while a glass-eyed cat will be a matter of | course. Many pet dogs are today going about in the sphere of the docter’s iafluence whose animal companions evidently do | not suspect that they possess artificial limbs. A few years ago, when a dog lost its fore or hind legs, the natural course was to put it out of existence with the least possible pain. A revo- lution has taken place in this treatment, | however, since Dr. Hobday came upon | the scene. He has manufactured legs | sultable to every kind of dog and cat. With regard to cats, it has been found that they do not “take” so well to artl- ficial 1imbs as do dog: ODD EFFECTS ON ANIMALS. Dr. Hobday records some very re- markable operations and instances sev- | eral cases where dogs with artifieial 1imbs seem to get on as well with the false members as they did with those of flesh and blood. He records one case of a valuable whippet hound which, by an accident, lost both its front legs. Its owners were at first in despair as to the future of the animal, but Dr.' Hobday constructed for it three sets | of artificlal legs, with which it man- | aged to get on famously. It acquired the habit of hopping about on its hind | egs after the manner of a kangaroo, and lived for many years under these peculiar conditions. i iels, bulldogs and Fox terriers, span! deerhounds have become patients of the doctor for various forms of artificlal limbs and the dogs soon learn to utilize | these substitutes to advantage. Every leg manufactured is made with the ut- most accuracy, and “just fits" each dog for whom it Is intended, Some falsé s consist of plain leather sockets, while | of are of siiver, rubber, chamols and vulcanite, or a combination of all of them, “It {s astonishing,” says Dr. Hobday, “to see how soon an animal can recon- ! same time. when the latter are off duty; and one These consist of a series of botties en- animal gifted with a limb of the more | cased in a bag with fur on the out- expensive variety displays the greatest | side resembling the supposed mother anxiety should any one deprive him,|animal.

Another extremely interesting work inaugurated by this surgeon is the in- troduction of false teeth into the mouths of dogs needing them. The same rules for dog-teeth are applied as those governing human beings. Quite a number of dogs whose teeth have be- come worn out through old age have received entire new sets, and ome collle has had its two incisors replaced with gold by American bridge work.

A curious -form of accident among greyhounds is the dislocation of the tail, and Professor Hobday has been very successful in treating this form of Injury. He usually subjects the caudal appendages to an X-ray machine, locat- ing definitely the”exact bone which may be out of place. He is thus en- abled to quickly reduce the dislocation, which is always done under an anesthe- tic. The X-ray machine is employed very extensively for all cases ot bone injury with the greatest success, One of the most Interesting sections |
