ANOTHER BOGUS PHILADELPHIA UNIVERSITY.
Another application to the directory resulted In tne
ardno NJ tbe following announcement: "The Phiade.
nba university of Medicine and Surgery, South Ninth
at near Locust" Following this were tho names OF IA
Professors including secretary, treasurer, aud ehap
lain Subsequent inquiry revealed the fact that with
the exception Of tho treasurer the Faculty was COM
posed OF Professors emerS or IN d6Sentid The real
head manager and of tho institution was ascer
tained to be DR.. Paine Some years ago this gentle
man acquired by purchase number OF old and defunct
charters of medical colleges In Philadelphia, and by
means OF little lobbying and manipulation, managed 10
consolidate them under charter from the Legislature
OF the State The act OF charter obtained under the
representation that the institution was to bc for tho edu

The similarity between names OF the Philadelphia Uni
yersity OF Medicine and Surgery, and the Medical Uni
versity Of Philadelphia, will be at By any one
not perfectly familiar with the institutions, either might
be mistaken for the other When 1t Is known that the
laernancf is OF tho oldest and most honorable In
stutons the country tho object Of the other In select
ing which Is liable TO create cOnfusiOn Will be a
parent to tho reader Under the caption alluded to the
scholarships OF the institution have been advertised ex-
tensvely through the South and West and mistaken for
those Of tho Medical University Of Philadelphia, have
been purchased by hundreds under the impression that
they buying the scholarships OF worthy school,
few days Mt the College has always been sufficient to
convince the victims OF their mistake or course the In
stuon having been legally chartered redress or repa-
ration has been impossible Many students accordingly,
-
vesity while others have passed through the nominal
course Of lectures aud taken their degree About year
ago the subject Of the sale OF diplomas was discussed IN
connection with this College, since which time tho man
ager and proprietor has been exceedingly wary Being
of considerable acutcucss efforts to directly I'M
pcate him the sale OF degrees have failed 1t Is al
legged however, by persons who have made the effort to
obtain diplomas without attendance upon the lectures,
that DIR. Paine has off red upon the payment OF
certain fees variable according TO the circumstances OF
the asprant TO collie sae hOnors, 70 date back their
scholarships enable the holder to graduate In
very short time is fact upon record that students
who have utterly failed in their examinations at the
University OF Philadelphia, have obtained diplomas
within month Of their matrcuation at tho University
Of Medicine ard Surgery This Institution occupies a
very fair building and outwardly makes much better
show than its Eclectic neighbor, which Is doubtless
owing to its larger patronage, brouSh about by exten
svc advertising. BY the medical profession OF Phila-
dephia both institutions are ignored, as they must
necessarily be by every rghtminded physician conver
