A Specialist on Trial.

Al a meeting of the National Medical AS
sociation held last night, the report of the
standing committee on certain charges pre-
ferred against DR.. Charles II. Bowen, a menu
Der of the association, for an alleged viola
ton of the rule of ethics, was presented for
consideration. The violation of the rule by
DIR. Bowen appears to have been that he has
prepared and published book, in pamphlet
form, setting forth sure treatment for GER
Tain zymotic and malarial diseases; that
thousands have profted by this secret treat
rncnt and been cured, and inviting the pat
ronage Of all similar sufferers, promising
them speedy and permanent relief, and an
nouncing himself on the front page of the
edition Us IL member of the National Medical
Association. The latter paragraph is the one
that meets with the disapprobation of the
association, and it was stated that if Dr.
Bowen wished TO indulge in II speciality OF
this description he should have withdrawn
from the membership of the association, and
not, by using the name given it the color OF
Endorsement to his work. The report recon-
mends that DR. Bowen be expelled from the
association. 1t was debated at length and
it was finally determined to give an oppor-
ftrnity 10 DR.. Bowen to make an explana-
ton, failing in which, the report will be
adopted at the next meeting.

What Would Have Been Considered By
the Board Of Education.
A special meeting OF the Boatd OF Ed.
ucation was called, last evening, to con.
slider the matter Of the Centre school,
but no quorum could be raised. AT
7:S0 o'clock the following members were
present: Messrs. Wilson, Caldwell,
Ankle, Wait. Bingell, Ebeling, Scbockey,
Maxwell and Todd. Eleven are re.
quired fora quorum, and superhuman
exertions were made to secure the lack.
ing two, but they were in vain.
The special object of the meeting was
TO take action upon the matter OF the
Fifth ward school. BY the contract for
the new building, the old house is to be
turned over 10 ther contractors on May
LIST, and the question was, what should
be done with the school for the remain
der OF the term. II was agreed by the
Board that The teachers, having be, n
employed for u year, were entitled TO re-
ceive the salary, and the argument was
advanced that the parents OF the school
children in that ward could legally claim
tuition. This matter was arRaed at
great length, at the last session, and .,t
determined TO search about and see II
suitable room coul! be obtained la
which to carry on the school.
The commissioners OF Centre district
we appointed TO make the vestigstion
and report last night, and the expects.
ton was that warm time would en-.
sue. However, as q quorum could not
bs obtained, there was no discus
sion. The committee had Q report
tady. II had searched about, and the
only available room was in the Parker
building, and it would not answer the
purpose. As it was important that the
graduating class should pursue its
studies, the committee recommended
that IL use the rooms OF the Board. and
that Prof Shepherd he the instructor.
Il was also recommended that the Com
missioners take charge Of the furniture
and fixtures OF the old school house.
TIE above would have been consid.
cred had quorum been present, but %
IL was, the members talked OF ever, /.
thing else. Finally, at o o'clock, M.
Wait moved TO adjourn. The roll WAS
called, and nine members answered.
Mr.. Caldwell moved to adjourn until
this evening, which motion prevailed.
Adjourned.

finished two dozen elegant and massive
leather chairs for the Governors apart

solid black oiled walnut, handsomely
carved, ana they are upholstered in a
very heavy aud durable quality OF
leather, of rich and beautiful red color.
This is the finest work OF this kind ever
