Dispensary and Hospital Physicians.

D1SpebS8ry anu HOSPITAL krnyS1Cl8nos
The faculties of the Indiana Medical and Gen.
trail colleges met the superintendents of the City
Dispensary and Hospital, yesterday. and elected
Drs. John B. Chambers, Allison Maxwell, Geo.
Cook, e. Hadley and l.. L. Todd as a board of
examiners to put questions in practice of medi-
cine. physiology, obstetrics, anatomy surgery
and materia medica to applicants for internes at
the City Hospital and for city physicians. Two
are to be selected for each place by competitive
examination, but subject to the approval of
fha superintendent and hospital and dispensary
board. Except L. L. Todd, none of these ex-
aminers have served before, and much satisfac-
ton is expressed at the composition of the
board of examiners The examinations com
mence after the graduating exercises of the col
ieges It is to be hoped the moral character of
applicants and ability to keep themselves free of
intrigues and desire for supremacy will be con
sidered by the hospital and dispensary boards as
we'll as the medical qualifications. The places
are worth about $500 year to the lucky stu
dents in either board or money. In earlier
days the City Dispensary positions were worth
from eight hundred 20 one thousand dollars.
This difference of $500 to $500 was made by
charging fees, mainly in of private diseases
or III quasi-criminal cases, where attendance was
imperative but silence desirable. 1t is to be
hoped that now, and in all future time, the City
Dispensary may be what its board intended
and the people demand--a free dispensary for
the poor-and that their wants may be as
promptly and cheerfully attended to as though
the gloved doctor was driven in q two-horss car
riage and charged and collected two-dollar fec
