An UncalIed-for Attack.

To the Editor OF the Star:
We feel, in justification of Francis N. Goble,
day watchman at the Courthouse, and In reply
to an article in last evenings Times, that it is
proper to say that the same is entirely uncaed for
and prompted by petty malice. Mr.. Goble, since
his appointment as day watchman at the Court
house. has at all times been attentive and faithful
to his responsible trust. He has never been miss
ing at his post. The gentleman (?) of the Times
should whenever he desires to use his columns,
either for or against an individual, go to the
proper authorities for his information.

'To the Physicians of Cincinnati:
"At the coming one hundred mile walk

such reasonable medical tests as can be made
without too much loss of time. The liability
to err when judging the pulse, temperature
respiration, etc, from distance is great,
and experiments thus made lack that scien-
tific value which personal examination will
