Women and Doctors,

She was very sick and her husband
sent for the doctor. l think that ladies
have SO little to do nowadays that it is a
kind of way they have of amusing them
selves getting sick and sending for the
doctor. l don't believe we will ever
have female doctors to any extent. If
we do it will be mainly for children.
Men will never take kindly to female
doctors. suppose it may be an unjust
opinion, but can't fancy a man being
very spoony with doctor. There is a
distinct prejudice in mankind against a
woman who has anything of practical
nature, except about the house. He
doesn't mind it if she can hang pictures
and nail down carpets and sew on but
tons, but scientific woman is ALWAYS
viewed with suspicion. A male doctor.
for instance, always says it is the liver or
stomach, a female doctor would prob
ably say it was the heart, and she would
very often be right. The ladies don't
want female doctor. 1t is in some
cases the only chance they have to see a
man, when they are sick. However. the
doctor was called in, and he, of course.
Immediately wrote out prescription.
1t was for some pills, to be taken every
third day. He came again next morn
ing.

You can trust the average Haytian

Jacmel to Port au Prince by a single
messenger, without losing q cent. T., IN

Peace With All Nations.

BERLIN, January 1.-THE landtag
was opened today. The emperor, in
his speech opening the session, de-
clared that all foreign relations Of the
country were friendly. He said that
during his recent visits to friendly
sovereigns, he gained the conviction
thai Germany might confidently
cherish the hope of peace. Continued
blessings of peace are shown in a
gratifying manner by the improved
econ omic situation of artisans, and the
financial position of the country is sat

A Rainy Sunday,

Yesterday was truly a rainy Sun
day to be remembered. Rain began
falling at about a. m. and during
the day when it was not drizzling,
heavy rain fell, and all last night the
amusement of the weather clerk in
this way was kept up. Nobody
seemed to care to stir from their
homes. Churches were meagrely at
tended, the streets being in such hor-
rible condition as to be impossible.
The saloons even, did not have their
accustomed quota of Sunday soakers,
and none but the milkman, butcher
and the hackman, were to be seen.
This latter Individual was the only
happy one. He is always on a rain Y,
muddy day. Then he can ask and
receive whatever amount for fare he
may choose. 1t is either submit or
let it alone, and the poor pedestrian
can not help himself. The German
servant girl stayed at home in the af-
ternoon, although it was her Sunday
out. She could not get out and her
"schatz" could not come to her.
Even the quail hunters had bad luck,
those who braved the weather, but
the majority of them did not brave it.
They simply wrapped up their guns,
laid away their freshly loaded shells
and petted their faithful dogs all day.

A Disastrous Collision.

CLEVELAND, o., January 14.-Pas.
senger train No. s, east bound, on the
New York Pennsylvania and Ohio
railroad, collided with q freight train
near Kent, Ohio, this morning. Eight
people reported killed and six in
jured.
The particulars of the accident OF
the New York, Pennsylvania and
Ohio road, near Kent, o., as far as
known at the general office in this
city, are, that the third section of
freight No. s west, broke in two be-
tween Kent and Tallmadge. The
front end of the freight was
put on the side track, and
the fiagman was left at Tall
madge to flag the passenger train
No. s. east bound, then nearly
due. The fiagman imagined he heard
whistle signal from his engine to
return to the train, and did not per-
form the duty required of him. The
engines came together with fatal re-
suits to eight persons and injuries to
six others.

? cor Modesto,

For years Modesto Torres has been
one of the leaders in local politics and
welded considerable influence in city
and county politics. He was also at
one time an ardent supporter of the
present administration, but alas
Modesto being one of the independent
spirits, and refusing or failing to do
certain dirty work for the ring, seems
to have incurred the displeasure of the
king, and has been made to suffer for
not kneeling and licking the feet of
the master. C?) Torres was dismissed
from service, and orders given all the
other slaves to have nothing to do
with him, not to give him any assist
ance or employment. Being a sober
and industrious man, Torres has man
aged to secure odd jobs here and
there, and earned money enough to
support himself and family. But poor
Modesto is stricken down with sick
ness and for nearly month has been
unable to work, and at this present
writing is lying on his back unable to
rise from his bed. He has neither
money nor medicine, and it seems
that all his friends have deserted
him, for with the exceptions of the
county doctor who called once, and a
representative of the LIGHT, not
single white man has called to see
him. Truthfully can Modesto cry:
Had l served my God as I have my
king, he would not have forsaken me
in this, my hour Of need"

That's the Record.

Thousands of the Eclipse wind mills
and pumps have been erected in Tex
as by the f. f. Collins Manufacturing
company, of Houston street, San An
tonic, Texas, and all have not only
worked satisfactorily but have proved
a bonanza to those using them. These
have prOspered while others who have
not used this system have suffered by
failing crops and by loss and deteri0-
ration of cattle. The fact Is, this sGien-
tltic system of obtaining and MAIN
tanning a good supply of water, es-
pecially in the drouth season, has rec
titled the apparent disadvantage Of
the dry sections" and those who
need water should certainly consult
this firm as to the way to get it.

MACBETH AND MIRTH,
Goodbye oJanauschek and We'll
come to "A Night Off,"

Goodbye toJanauschek and We'll
come to "A Night Off,"
Madame Janauschek and company
left yesterday morning for Austin,
which is the next Texas city in which
they appear. Saturday afternoon as
"Meg Merriles,n she drew one of the
largest matinees of ladies ever
i'm the Grand opera house, and at
great as her first night. Macbeth"
Macbeth, and Mr.. Geo. ID. Chaplin as
Macbeth, presented well. The other
members of her support were but
medium fair in their parts. In Lady
Macbeth's invocation "Come you
spirits that tend on mortal thoughts,
ur sex me here, " was fine piece of elo-
cution, that elected great applause.
Macbeth's soliloquy, If it were done
when it's done" was also spoken with
great expression by Mr.. Chaplin, and
the dialogue between them in the con-
coction of the plot was also good.
Macbeth is Mr.. Chaplin's best role,
there is no doubt, and Janauschek
eXcels herself in this. The many good
points in the play were frequently
applauded and during the evening
Janauschek was presented with bas-
ket of cut flowers by one of the au-
dience.
\ SPLENDID COMEDY.
Manager Mullaly could not have
chosen better than to book such q
superb comedy as Dalv's Comedy
company presented at this play house
In MI 'nll al
the sombre Shakespearean tragedy,
the heart of the play-going public
was lifted and made light by the
comedy "a Night Off" Notwith-
standing the heavy rain that poured
almost necessarily all day long, the
advance sale of seats was quite en-
couraging and the members of the
company were all in fine spirits when
the curtain was rung up in the even
ing. Soon the house began to fill and
the largest audience ever seen at the
Grand upon a rainy night was soon in
the seats of the parquet, dress circle
and gallery, and laughing until it
seemed they would not beable to laugh
more. AS the play progressed peals
OF laughter sounded in such freQuen-
cy from all parts of the house as to Of
ten seriously impede the comedy. The
company is an all around good one.
There are no stars, or better, they are
all stars. There is not poor stick
among them, and it would be useless
to say which one was the best. The
play is truly American, it is homelike
and true to the life. Nothing is stilted,
nothing exaggerated, nothing vulgar
or stale, and not chestnut was spoken
the whole evening. In fact there is
no room for chestnuts in it. 1t cannot
be described with justice to any part,
nut must be seen to be appreciated.
The verdict of each and ali of the au-
dience last night was that it is the
best comedy and company of come
dams ever seen at the opera house.
The play will be repeated tonight.
