BY JAMES C. CRAWFORD. Three times within as many hours | of last Thursday afternoon were the | medical attaches of the Park Police | Station called upon to relieve Mrf. | Amelia Niemann of excess alcohol, and | after the third. successful application of the pump they emphatically declared that the task was becoming monotonous and they would not undertake it again even to preserve the woman's life. So to save them from possible opprobrium for heartlessness thé captain in com- mand booked her for drunkenness and detained her in custody. 1t was explained to Judge Mogan, be- fore whom Mrs. Niemann was ar- raigned vesterday morning, that lack of proper facilities to keep female prison- ers in proper seclusion was all that pre- vented her being held in durance _after she underwent the first operation. “But when the doctors kicked we just had to make room for her,” sighed Patrolman Foley, the complaining witness. Prior to their filing of serious pro- tést, it was alleged, the medicos treated the subject rather lightly, having greeted Mrs. Neimann's initial entrance to the station -with a cheery . ery of All hands to the pump.” - And when she was carried in‘a second time one of the scienfists airily asked her Sustodlan why she had not been eonveyed:to the Dutch windmill, where pumping:is per- formed by labor-saving- device. “Fhere was na badinage, however, when she, wag brought in the third time. “If this woman is released again to- day.” said the senior doctor to the cap- tain, “you must either accept my resig- nation or double my staff. We'll fix her up this time, but we cannot respond to any more encores. There i§ Hmit to'hu- man endurance, and a performance of "Fwas period is.more than we can give.” then the captain locked her up. Middlé-aged. and with a boy’'s cloth which comeliness had long been banished by riotous living, Mrs. Neimann whimper= ingly told the Judge that she deeply regretted having put the police and the doctors to so much trouble. - “And it never would have happened,” she averred, “if that lady in the next tent but one to mine had only let me dlone. But no; she wouldn't do it Every time she came to visit me she had a bottle of whisky with her. and when T told her I couldn’t stand more than a drop of it it she told me that a glassful wouldn't hdrm an infant, it was such good stuff. “After T was pumped out the first time she made me hit.the bottle again by saying it would prevent cramps, and after the doctors got through with me the second time she said I would sure- Iy die if I didn’t take something to strengthen up my stomach.” Mrs. Neimann either could not or would not remember the name of the alleged false Samaritan. Mr. Neimann, she . reluctantly stated, is managing a cigar-stand near wolden Gate Park, and . what he would think of hér con- duct she shuddered to surmise. 3 She was ordered to hiave him in court today. After sceing several palpably Inebo riated persons emerge from the gro- cery kept by William Reed, a cripple, at North Point and Larkin streets, Patrol- man.

Sterling Furniture Company SIXTH STREET, From King to Berry \ty-three San Francisco was not routed by the late disaster found renewed exempli- fication in the court of Judge Conlan, where Ali Hasson, an Arabian, accused his compatriot, Bedouin Solomon (booked as John Doe Sullivan), of hav- ing embezzled $85 which had been in- trusted to his temporary keeping. Ali testified .uat he was a mariner, and a few weeks prior to the afore- mentioned disaster sailed away to Peru, after leaving his. total capital, $85, for safe keeping in the hands of Bedouin, who then managed a fruit store on Jecond street. When the sailor returned to port he found his banker's place of business destroyed and the banker himself pleading that the $85 had been consumed by fire. Another inning of the case is set for today. . . D. C. Fuller, a strapping young ne- gro, asseverated that he did not steal the sackful of copper wire that was produced as evidence against him be- fore Judge Mogan. He was arrested with the sack in his possession early vesterday morning at Jackson and Stockton streets. “Et wuz dis yah way,” he explained. ‘Ah’'m eh reffagee at de Poseedeo, en Ah wuks dah till yist'y, wen a fren ob mine sez teh me, ‘Wy doan yo' strak fo' de job at Mission en Second? Dey wants cullud he’p dah.’ he sez, ‘eén 'yo'se sheah ob catchin’ on.’ Well, Jedge. sah, Ah gits up bright'n aihly in de mohnin’ en stahts teh walk teh de spot Ah mintions, en ez Ah walks ehlong Ah sees a loaded sack lyin' on de road. ‘Dat’s funny. Ah sez teh mahself. but Ah doan stop, but jes skips ehlong. “Bimeby Ah es anuddah loaded sack lyin' on de road, en Ah sez teh my- self, ‘Dat’s funny twice,’ but.

Dat’s de whole gospel trufe.” But he could not satisfactorily ex- plain several points of his narrative, among them the identity of the person whose advice he alleged he was follow- ing when he started out from the Pre- sidio. “I will give you until next Monday to produce your friend here,” said the Judge, “and vour failure to do so will not strengthen your defense. $ Meantime an owner of the wire is being sought by Patrolman Riley, and failure of his quest will not strengthen the prosecution. . . ‘When they were burned out of house and home on Duboee avenue John.

Complaint was registered with the Board of Health yesterday by some of the refugees in Jefferson Square that the cooking and sanitation were not as | good as they should be. Dr. D. F. Ra- gan, Health Officer, and Sanitary In- spector Hassler immediately investi- gated the conditions in the refugee camp. Their inspectors filed a report stating that the conditions represented did not exist. Dr. Hassler sald: “For a camp of over 3000 people, occupying such a small area of ground, our men found the con- ditions good. They advise the abolish- ing of the old-style latrine and the sub- stitution of flush closets.

We found that the san- | itation was not the best, but expect to | improve it as soon as we get to work.” The members of the Health Board feel that the criticism of Jefferson Square camp is unjust. They claim that the people expect too much, and say that the camp is being conducted as well as possible under the circum- stances.
