WOMAN'S RIGHTS IN MASSACHUSETTS,. - A
question of nearly ten years standing has at
lest been disposed OF In Boston. It is the woman
question which has so long obtruded Itself into
the deliberations OF the State Medical Society.
Attempts have repeatedly been made to secure
the admission OF women to membership, but
conservatism, always of rigid type 10 this Or
ganization, turned coldly away each time from
the proposed innovation. Year by year pro-
gressive spirit has gained ground among the
ranks of younger members and last Wednesday
at meeting OF the council the board of censors
were very quietly directed to examine all
female applicants for admission. The young
members are very happy over their victory; the
older ones accept 1t with what good nature they
can, but Insist that it does not concern the pup
"a. and tie less that Is said about It the better
II is believed that very Few females memoers
will result from this decision.

case Of the death Of old Mrs. Laney Barnard of
Chittenango, on sunday morning, September

He testified that he found the most unmistaka-
Bile presence OF arsenic In the liver and kidneys,
also traces OF the poison in the tissues OF the

was conclusive evidence that 1t had been taken
during life, and SO much had been administered
10 the Old lady that 1t had eaten through the
.nUcuous lining and made a large number OF
ulcers in the tissues of the stomach itself. A
daughter OF the old lady, Mrs. Shrouder, and
her husband, George Snrouder. are now In Nor
risvtlie jail, charged with administering the
poison so as TO obtain possession Of her proper
ty. witness testified this afternoon that he
heard George Shrouder say, In reference to his
mother-fn-law few days before her death,
'.Tbe old wretch Amt fit to live and a good
dose Of strychnine will do her good Shrouder
said this just after he had made the statement
to bystander that the old lady had turned him
out Of her house and wouldn't let him use the
team or have share Of the property. The yer-
dict OF the jury was that Mrs Barnard came TO
her death from arSenical poisoning, and that
tie dose was administered by the daughter and
Son-in-law, Mr.. and Mrs. Shrouder.
