significant fact about this is that
after he had quit the saloon business,

OF especial interest to the universal Yankee
ttion, inasmuch as chapter will be sue-
voted to the touching story Of the
of July QS76) by the prisoners
in the house of detention in St. Petersburg.
As early as the first week in June the three
hundred ''pOlitcals" therein confined began
to make preparations for the celebration by
requesting relatives who visited them to
send to the prison blne and red handker-
chiefs, red flannel underclothes, etc, and
before July 1St almost every prisoner had q
roughly made American flag, or a few
strips of red. white and blue cloth, and all
inch or two of candle. Hours before the
first midnight cannon annouced the begin
ming of the great national celebration in
Philadelphia, hundreds of flags and strea-
mers were flutteriDg from the grated win
dOws of the prison; and the prison guards,
who had never heard of the declaration Of
indepe ndence ard did not comprehand the
signi ficance on the remarkable outbreak,
were busy hushing the cheers and seizing
the streamers. At intervals through the
day flags were hung out, and at night the
prison windows were illuminated by the
per sistent celebrators of American indie
pendence.

Representative Hartpence, of Hamilton
county, recently introduced medical bill
in the Ohio house that has a ring of CON-
mon sense about it. 1t provides that every
person in the state practicing medicine shall
be required to have license or diploma
from some regular chartered medical col
lege or regularly Incorporated medical soci-
ETY.. A copy of this license or diploma
must be filed with the county clerk where
he resides. There is practical sense i'll this
bill Ii hits the nail squarely on the head
and is just what is needed. OF the bill,
the Dayton Journal says:
This is as it should be and is all that is
necessary. A bill vesting the power to say
who shall and who shall not practice medi-
cine in a prPjudiced board of medical eN-
aminers would be radically unjust and
should never be allowed to become a law.
II this bill can be pushed through and thus
knock out Other objectionable bills, We
thi:iR this wo Id be the proper course TO
pursue by all interested in keeping intact
the right OF any physician TO advertise in
legitimate and proper manner.
