M4.atl for Dr. Seymour is one of the younger medical men who has already demonstrated his ability as an organizer and executive head.

He was born in Vancouver in 1894, the eon of Mr. and Mrs. J. R. Seymour, and as a member of that pioneer and highly respected family has a wide circle of friends in the city of his birth.

He commenced his education in the public schools and high school, and then went to the University of Toronto, where he subsequently gained his degree as doctor of medicine. The war, however, interrupted his studies, and answering the call to service, he went overseas with the 11th Field Ambulance Corps. At the end of hostilities he returned homo and completed his medical course at Toronto, gaining his degree in 1921. For a while he did locum tenons, and Joined the administrative staff of the Vancouver General Hospital in 1922, becoming assistant superintendent a year later, which position he has occupied to the present time. Dr.

Seymour was married in 1923 to Miss Margaret Cameron, daughter of the late Rev. Charles J. Cameron and Mrs. Cameron also of Vancouver, and there are two children of the marriage girls aged 6 and 2 1-2 years respectively. Although Dr.

Seymour is a novice at golf, he is a keen supporter of all healthful athletics; his chief hobbies being fishing and gardening, while his artistic tastes favor music. Several farewell functions are already planned to honor Dr. Seymour, and it is with many regrets that friends and business associates will bid "adieu," wishing him every success in his new undertaking with its greater responsibilities. The board of directors of the Vancouver General Hospital, at its last meeting, spoke in glowing terms of the ability and integrity of Dr. Seymour, stating that "Vaa-couver's loss, was Saskatoon's gain." The board will honor Dr Seymour with a dinner before he leaves the city, when the members will show their appreciation In some tangible form.

PRELIMINARY Charges of kobbery With Violence Are Laid Against Pair SHOW FOLK WILL GIVE TESTIMONY EVIDENCE OF VICTIM MAT TAKEN FROM HIS COT IN CITY HOSriTAL Drawling evidence of col ored circus hands and the mute testimony of blood-matted bed sheets and a cloth-bound hammer head, to which kinky negro hair and blood still clung, Joined forces in police court this mornine in an effort to make out a case of robbery with violence against Willie Harris and Willie King, a pair of giant negroes. SOUTHERN DRAWL While the southern accents of the colored showmen drawled on in court, William Young, 53-year-old negro hostler, lay on a cot at City Hospital where he haa suffered since July 24 with concussion of the brain, a fractured law, a deep cut In his head and laceration of the left ear drum. If his condition continues to improve he will be able to leave the hospital In a week or 10 davs. Meanwhile, his evi dence will probably be taken from his hospital cot. The case, which Is proceeding by way of preliminary hearing, was not completed at the noon adjournment.

Two more showmen were on their way here from Winnipeg but were expected to be on hand when the hearing resumed at 2 o'clock. After their testimony is In, then the court will probably Journey to the hospital for Young's evidence. Showmen who appeared this morning, five of them, came from Regina In answer to crown summonses and hope to leave the city this afternoon at 8 o'clock to rejoin the Johnny J. Jones troupe in Winnipeg. BRUTAL ASSAULT Principals in the drama, which had its beginning with a brutal assault on the negro hostler In a racing stable at the Saskatoon Exhib-i ition, have descriptive names and by these alone are they known to the majority of the colored show folk.

Young, victim of the attack, is "the goat man" to them because he has a pet goat which followed him wherever he went until their recent separation when the man went to hospital and the animal on to Regina and Winnipeg. KNOWN AS BOOB" Willie Harris, tall and thin, is "Slim," and Willie King is known as "Boob." George Williama, who was arrested with "Slim" and "Boob" and later released to return to his native Kentucky, went under the nickname, "The Spider." It Is charged that Harris and King attacked Young as he lay asleep In racing stable No. 108 early on the Friday morning of fair week, and that they stole about $9 from the hostler's trouners pocket. A roll of $193, which Young hid between two boxes beside his bed in the stable "tack room," was tendered as an exhibit in court. It was still in Its hiding place after the attack.

There were 10 witnesses this morning, five of them white and five colored. Besides the negro witnesses there was another colored man In court, a young law student from the United States. Neither Harris nor King was represented by counsel. George A. CruiHe, K.C., agent for the attorney-general here, conducted case for the crown.

The two accused followed the testimony of each witness closely. "Slim" Harris asked many pointed questions as ha conducted his own cross-examination of the witnesses, but "Boob" King replied only "No sah!" when auk r-d by Magistrate F. M. Brown whether he wished to address any queries to the men in the witness box. Stories of drinking and crap games on the night before the assault were graphically and humorously told by the negro showmen, but the bloody exhibits entered by the crown were grim contrasts to the moments of levity.

BLAZE IS CHECKED BY SPEEDY WORK Firemen Able to Extinguish Flames on Roof of Campbell's Cafe Due to quick work by firemen a blaze which might have reached serious proportions was quickly extinguished this morning.

Guests at the hotel, somewhat 1 fearful lest the blaze should spread, watched out of bedroom windows while the firemen used hose and exes.

WAGGENSTEIN! A naturalization certificate belonging to Andrew M. Waggen-atein has been turned In to the city police station where the owner may recover it The Canadian Freight Association recently gave notice that application would be made shortly to have the rates on bulk apples from British Columbia points Increased from 73 cents per 100 lbs. to $1.13 per 100 lbs. This increase, wholesale fruit dealers in Saskatoon consider would greatly decrease the demand for bulk apples. They contend that the increase would make the purchase of apples prohibitive to a large number of farmers.

The British Columbia packers are protesting against he increase in freight rates and In support o) their protest they point out that the existing rates are not equitable with those prevailing in eastern Canaiia. and that it is considerably cheaper to ship fruit from Ontario points over equal mileage than from British Columbia. They also express the opinion that, if the new rate Is put into ef feet, growers will not be able to find a market for their product. A wholesale house operating chain stores has issued petitions tc its customers for signature against the Increased rates. These petitions will be forwarded to the Board of Railway Commissioners, and the Minister of Railways.

Revision of the Vehicles Act by the traffic council has been left over until its next meeting, but It has been decided to request the superintendent of motor license for the province to arrange for regulations limiting the amount of express, to be carried on top of motor busses and livery car tc conform with the passenger caps-city of the vehicle. Still Shuffling The walkathon will be continued. This decision was arrived at this morning by employees and contestants who appointed a committee to take charge. In the meantime legal advice Is being sought by those left In the lurch by the decamping promoters to find out if there is any legal action which can be taken to compel them to complete their contract. In the meantime the contestants are shuffling around.
