State Board Medical Exam, ners

At the last meeting of the State
Medical Society, the following
gentlemen were elected as Board
of Medical Examiners Of the State
Of California: Drs. C. M. Bates,
James Simpson, Henry Gibbons,
Jr., Washington Aver, r. H.
Plummer, OF San Francisco, and
Drs. g. Cushing and Agard, of
Oakland. Alta recent meeting of
the Board, the following officers
were elected: G. M. Bates, Presi-
dent; r. H. Plummer, Secretary;
Washington Aver, Treasurer.
The follow ing preamble and res
olution, introduced by DR.. Nixon,
were adopted by the Society during
Its session. We publish them by
by special request:
WHEREAS, In consequence ofthe
silence of the profession, the regu-
lar practice Of medicine Is very
generally characterized as alio-
pathy by the secular press, by Sec
ular dogmatists and sectarians, and
by the public at large; and as the
epithet all0pathy, applied to its in
dividuai members, through igno-
rance, to u great extent, was a
name introduced by Hahnemann
to give distinction to his hom@op.
athic dogmas; therefore,
Rescued, That we, the Medical
Society of the State of California,
In unison with the regular profess
sion throughout the world, do here
by utterly repudiate the name of
allopath, as applied to ourselves, or
allopathy, as applied to our prac-
tice. The regular profession of
medicine lie, knowing no sectarian-
ism in medicine, practicing no ex-
elusive dogma, or in any way re.
stricting its legitimate members in
the treatment Of their patients. but
on the contrary giving them the
fullest latitude to use any remedy
or any means whereby the welfare
Of The sick may be promoted, their
health insured or their lives pro-
loDged.

The Engineering Field.

Professor Trowbridge delivered q
lecture recently before the Society
of the School of Mines, Columbia
College, New York, In which he
reviewed the great triumphs
achieved by engineers during the
present century. He said that there
was an illimitable field of engineer
ing possibilities reserved for the
future. Young engineers Just start
ing out in the profession might
think that there was nothing left
for them to do except to copy the
works of their predecessors, but II
they allowed themselves to be dis
couraged by such an idea they
make great mistake. The field
was as large as ever, perhaps larger.
Sanitary engineering was only in
its infancy, and there was no doubt
that there were great changes to be
made in the manner of building
railroads. 1t was well known
fact that under the presen. condi-
lions a dead weight Of about two
and q half tons had to be drawn
over the road for every passenger
carried. This was certainly wrong,
and must be Yemedied. Four years
ago the matter was very fully dis
cussed in England, and the best en-
glneers there concluded that there
was no remedy. But the question
was nevertheless an open one.
Perhaps the elevated railroads
which had risen like magic In the
streets of New York would be the
beginning of a solution Of the prob.
lem. The demands of the future
would be for faster travel at cheap
err rates.
If any one said there was no
longer much work for educated en-
gineers they had but to go to the
top of the building 1.-THE School of
Mines) and look about them. From
that lookout they would see no less
than half a dozen great feats in en-
cheering going on before their
eyes. He referred to the Brooklyn
Bridge, the works at He'll Gate, the
elevated railroads, the Harlem
River improvements, the tunnel
under the Hudson River aud the
projected bridge over this East
River at Black wells Island, with
span the longest in the world.

Rev. DIR. Sold, the Rabbi of a
Jewish Synagogue at Baltimore,
says that 1T was the Martyr-Presi-

that when persons would come to
him with complaints he often gave
them his views in short and COM
prehensive parable. He would
thus often unravel an intricate and
knotty question by his keen and
lncisive wit. AS for instances:
Some Western gentlemen called at
the White House and harangued

about the omissions and com miss
Ions OF the Administration. He
heard them With his usual patience,
