AFATYoUNa woMANs TROUBLES
She Finds Many Things Too Narrow
for Her Immense Bulk.
From the Baltimore Herald

FROM Ule DQtJlHtOTS I16Tutu'
Considerable merriment WAS occasioned
at Camden station yesterday by an ebony
hued tourist, who might well have served
as a freak at a wel-regulated dime museum
The tourist was a 20-year-old girl of ele-
phantine proportions. She would certainly
tip the scales at $50 pounds.
This mountain of flesh edged up to the
ticket office and vainly endeavored to
squeeze in between the rail and the Office
in order to get TO the window TO secure her
passport. This she found was impossible,
and frown played about her fat face. The
ticket agent became cOnvulsed with laugh
ter, but finally subdued his hilarity and po-
litely asked:
"W here do you wish to go, MissT
Where do l wish to go~ repeated the
heavy weight. HIN, indeed; I'm Liza
Robertson, and Use gwine to Wash'ton."
When the ticket agent had pushed the
pasteboard slip through the window and re-
ceived therefor Liza's silver, the maiden
turned to find herself surrounded by a
dozen or mere curious people. On her way
to the train she encountered another diff
Guilty, for the rails at the gate were several
feet too close together TO admit the passage
of so heavy an individual. Gatekeeper
Seewalt was equal to the emergency, how
ever, and rolled back the gate several yards.
Liza's cheeks were crimson as red ban
dana when she brushed quickly past him.
She had some little trouble in ascending the
steps of the smoker, but finally got upon
the platform.
The curious Gro d had followed her. She
turned to enter the car door sidewise, but
not until her rather extensive hustle had
been moved considerably out of place could
she succeed in wedging herself through By
this time Liza was mad, and almost fell
into a double seat. She placed one elbow
on the window, the other on the rail at tho
other end of the seat, and groaned with
indignation.
The gong sounded the train pulled out,
and the witnesses of Liza's trials and tribu-
lations enjoyed hearty laugh.

with scaly sores, and the sight Of Que eye

division superintendent at Carlin, who re-
fused to compel the diseased man TO leave

the circumstances to the officials in this

that point Conductor Duff received tele-

to leave Edinburgh to get their education

Edinburgh, Boosting of the most perfect
school system in the world, had no place
where woman might study medicine If she
were so inclined.
There are now four medical colleges in
the United States, situated at New York,
Philadelphia, Baltimore and Chicago.
There are, perhaps, $50 female physicians

custom of foreign missionary societies to
pay for the education of young women,

MRS. CLEVELAND DID NOT SCREAM
But Promptly Went to the Rescue of
Her Companion in Peril.

From the Nelo York World.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 23-Mrs. Cleveland
had a very narrow escape day or two ago
from an accident which might have proved
serious in the extreme As it was, her COM
panion. Col. John NJ Wilson, commissioner
of public buildings and grounds, &C tualIy
plunged through a ceiling up to the waist,
and would surely have gone entirely
through had the joists of the floor not been
near enough to catch him by the arms and
break the fail. The actual damage done
amounted to only few scratches, but the
escape was very remarkable one.
Workmen are engaged in putting new
floor III the upper story Of the whlte house.
The boards had all been removed and moth
ing was left but the sub-structure, consisting
mainly of the old joists and the lath and
plaster of the ceiling. Mrs. Cleveland, after
long vacation, returned to the white house,
and, in company with Col Wilson, went
around to see the alterations and repairs
that were being made. They had nothing
but the joists to walk upon, and as Mrs.
Cleveland, holding the colonePs guiding
hand, stepped across from joist to joist her
foot slipped. In trying to save Mrs. Cleve-
land from falling the gallant colonel missed
his own footing ana stumbled from the
joists on to the lath and plaster. This frall
support gave way and he dropped through
the hole until the parallel 1Olsts cauSnt MIN

tween earth and sky.
There were several workmen on hand,
but before any of them could reach the spot
where the colonel fell he had raised himself
up and was again above board. Quick as
his action was, however, it was not 50 quick
but that Mrs. Cleveland, with the prompt
ness and energy for which she is distIn-
guished, had time to step across to the
sunken colonel and, catching him by the
am, helped him to the surface again. Those
who were present say Mrs. Cleveland did
not scream, as most women would have
done, but was as prompt and cool-headed as
if the accident and rescue had been all care
