The Woman's Medical College Of the

thirty-fve. This is the school which
was founded by DIR. Elizabeth Black

woman physician in the country. and of
which her sister, DR.. Emily Blackwell,
is now Dean. One Of the students is a
woman who lives up the Hudson at

To all appearances we are going to
have an Ibsen craze this winter. The
Tolstoi craze of last season in a sense
paved the way for enthusiasm over the
Swedish realist and Ibsen classes and

order Of the day. Ibsens plays have
not been put on the stage IN New York
yet in an English dress, SO that no such
controversy has been awakened as arose
among the critics last winter in Lon
don, but they are being played IN Ger
man at the Amberg, and that small
sized house OF amusement Is crowded
every evening. An Ibsen drama is by
no means exciting. II has no situations.
