Women Students AT Yale.
Boston Advertiser.


1t has been currently reported that
Yale professors have established a
course of instruction for women, follow
ing the example of the Harvard "An,
mex" This runor is not entirely cor
rect. Professor W. q. Sumner of New
Haven, explains the matter in a pri-
vate letter as follows: "NO formal ar
rangemcntS for inStructing women
have been made here. 1t has always
been customary for women to attend
certain exercises they chose. .Ofcourse
they lived i'll New Haven or were at
school here. Professor Peck has had a
class Of women in Latin, but, | think,
men were in the class also, and the AZ
rangement was quite informal. No
women have ever attended any of my
classes | am sorry to say. We have
never made any formal arrangements
about women, but know of nothing to
prevent them from attending any eXer-
else here"

Scoring a Bulls Eye Through q Mans
Body.

An unfortunate miShap occurred yes.
tcrday at the new ranges of the Victoria
Rifle Club. between here and the Half
way House, DundaS road. Members of
the club were engaged in practice at
the 1000 yard range, and George Mar
getts was firing at the target when un-
happily the marker, George jenkins,
stepped in front and received the bullet,
which passed through his body and,
strange as it may appear struck the
bulls eye, which was beSpattered with
blood. A reporter of the Times soon
after the occurrence investigated the
facts and ascertained that it has been
the practice of the marker at the ranges
to wave red flag when he wishes to
repaint the target after number of
shots have been fired, or prior to ex-
amining it after the marksmen are
through firing. But in this instance
jenkins neglected to wave his flag and
exposed himself with the result stated.
The unfortunate man was carried to
the residence of Mr.. McNab Qocated
near the range), where he was attended
by DrS Griffin and RoSeburgh. Jen-
kins passed the night very fAyorably
aud to- day DR. Griffin has great hopes
that no will recover The bullet was
one OF Reming,on's $50 grains, aud en-
tered at the back below the shoulder
blade, passing out about AL inch halAM-
the i6TT nipple Alter looking where
the ball had struck the target, and see
ing that it was a bulls eye, jenkins
saws he felt a singing pain as if a
needle had gone through him. He
then yelled to the parties at the range,
for the purpose of letting them kG9w
that he had been struck and ran
down the ranges 240 or 250 yards and
as several OF the marksmen approached
him he fell over. lie bled but little
from the wound and there has not been
much internal hemorrhage. jenkins
has performed the duty Of marker ut
the ride ranges for nearly three years,
and has always been considered q very
cautious man. -Ham!lt0R (yas, : Times.

Imaginary Diseases and Imaginar
Cares.

The case that am now about to re-
late (wrtes an eminent physician)
shows how an imaginary cause may
make person sick, and how an imag-
mary remedy may cure. A young lady
in Western town believed that bristle
from her toothbrush lodged in her
throat, producing all the inconvenience
that would be supposed to arise from
such a cause, and which she insisted
would prove fatal if not removed. The
family doctor and other physicians of
good repute examined her throat and
assured her that there was no bristle
there. She persisted in saying it was
there, and continued to grow worse,
until a young surgeon was called in,
who, after long and patient eXamina-
tion with various imposing instruments,
such as physicians are wont to display,
declared she was quite right; that the
bristle was, indeed, in her throat, and
that the Inflammation she experienced
was undoubtedly due to it. He told
her he would have to return to his
Office. to get suitable instrument for
removingit, but in reality to inclose a
bristle from tooth brush in the instru-
ment he intended to use. He exposed
the throat to strong light, introduced
his forceps and, with many Intellectual
efforts and nippings of the throat where
the supposed bristle was lodged, he
finally drew forth the instrument with
the triumphant exclamation, Il have
it at laStr He showed her the bristle
embraced by the forceps, which she
viewed with the highest qualification
and delight. She keptit to show to her
friends and acquaintances as a convinc-
ing proof that she was right and they
were all wrong and provokingly obsti-
nate in saying that it was not in her
throat. She sounded the praises of the
young surgeon far and wide and loud
and long, until she had blown him into
fame. All would have ended well to
him if he had not in moment of weak
ness, to which most husbands are liable,
confded his secret to his wife. Being
burdened with the responsibility of
keeping it all alone, she sought friend
to assist her in the great undertaking.
1t proved too much for them both, and
soon found its way to the young lady
herself The disclosure produced q
sudden and violent revulsion of feeling
toward her champion. Her praises
turned to bitter abuse. She was cured,
indeed, but the cure was worse than
the illness.
