SLIGHTLY TWISTED.

The Demands of the Bricklayers Were Mis-

The statement that the bricklayers' de-
mand is for so cents day above the present
wages has been slightly misunderstood. Some
of the bosses in the county had been paying
their men 81 80, and the demands now made
are for an equalization The demands of
the bricklayers are now for 81 so a day,
nine hours to constitute days work, with
eight on Saturdays.
The action has been sanctioned by the
national organization. The bricklayers do
not anticipate any necessity for lockout or
strike. They say they are ready to meet the
bosses any time.

Prof. Packard, who has charge of the

He says the people have been so badly

selves as Americans. They talk Russian and
receive most OF their news from Siberian

in minerals, and that the land is not the

Advantage Taken by Butchers of a Slight
Rise In Beef Cattle

Advantage Taken by Butchers of q Slight
Rise In Beef Cattle
The next strike may be that by boarding
house, restaurant and hotel keepers, if the
price of meat continues to advance. Butter
is growing cheaper, and eggs are within the
reach of people of means, but the price of
beef has advanced fully 90 per cent. A
Diamond market butcher refused yesterday
to discuss the advance, but said, people
will find out all about it when thev buy."
Some people exhibit disposition to grow
angry over the discussion of the advance.
While admitting that cattle on the hoof are
33 per cent higher than year ago, they con-
tend that this is all the increased cost to
butchers, and does not give them the right
to advance prices so per cent.

Considers 1t a Nuisance.

DR.. c. f. Bingaman, of Penn avenue, re-
garded such an innovation as q nuisance
rather than as being of practical benefit. IF
medical men carried badges" he said, SIT
would be only source OF worry instead of
emolument to them, or of benefit to the pub
lie. You can fancy busy man on his way
to visit patients and liable to be called upon
to attend case, to the neglect of his own,
perhaps, just as serious. People have their
own physicians and call them in when re-
quired. In these days of telephone service
and quick transit a doctor can be summoned
and respond to call with sufficient readi-
ness. Such a scheme might do very we'll in
London or Berlin, or other large cities, but
it is not needed here. Ii will not be estab-
lished in Pittsburg."

ADoctor's Dislike of Advertising.

One well-known Penn avenue physician,
who does not permit his name to be used
gave the reason just mentioned as one of his
objections to the proposition. 'There has
always been distaste among physicians"
said this gentleman, "to everything ap-
preaching an advertisement Of their profess
sion. Even among German doctors, who
have an occasion to wear uniforms as a mat
ter of compulsion, this feeling is very
strong. Physicians in regular practice will
never adopt Distinguishing badge. To do
SO would be to place them on level with
men who practice without diploma, and
who would only accept the opportunity to
assume a status not theirs. Iquestion either
if the public would be benefited by the
adoption of the idea. 1t would be contrari-
wise, for no physician of repute would make
himself conspicuous by wearing badge,
carry them. 1 don't think any person
would employ doctor who advertised him
self and his calling by such means"
DR.. Thomas Mccain was inclined to
favor the idea of physicians having some
distinguishing badge. 1.-THE difficulty
would be" he said, 'to get all the medical
men to adopt them. Assuming that the
Allegheny County Medical Society were to
pass d law on the matter-which would be
disregarded as unconstitutional-not more
than one-half the medical men practicing
are members of that body, and its enact
ments would not control the remainder In
a city like this, where so many accidents
occur, 1t would be of advantage to the pub
lie to be able to recognize doctor on sight,
and much valuable time would be saved in
pressing cases. 1 consider it doubtful, how
ever, whether the matter could be brought
to the point of practical utility. The gen.
eral sentiment OF the profession would be

DON'T LIKE THE IDEA.
Physicians Not Disposed to Favor the
Adoption Of Badges
AS DISTINGUISHING TRADEMARKS.
The Scheme Night Suit Berlin and London.
but 1t Won't Go Here.
DOCTORS SAT 1T Is lMPRACTICABLE

The decision of Berlin physicians that
their coachmen shall wear white hats as q
distinguishing mark Of their masters pro-
fession, once more opens up the question
discussed here about two years ago-as to
the propriety and necessity for medical men
adopting some characteristic badge. The
matter is receiving attention in other cities,
but whatever the medical fraternity else
where may do in this direction, it is certain
that the idea finds little favor here.
1t is possible that PIttsburg physicians
would not oppose q suggestion that their
coachmen should wear white hats, or green
hats, or uncovered altogether for that matter,
if any sufficient reason was advanced why
they should. But in the case of local prac-
titioners it is difficult to provide any reason.
The number of medical men who own a coach
man and horses is very limited, and in this
country of full personal liberty and freedom
from the dictates of despotic monarch, no
regulation could be enforced which would
be efectual in bringing about a general
adoption of the innovation. The same
argument applies to the suggestion that
physicians might adopt some personal mark
or badge to distinguish them from the COM
mon ruck of humanity.
Couldn't Enforce Such a Rule.
If the Allegheny County Medical Society
were to undertake to pass law providing
that its members should wear badge, it
would not be needed on the grounds OF un-
constitutional interference with the rights
of the individual. The physicians who
favor the idea do 70 from motives of philan-
thropy. These argue that, peculiarly in
cItv whose people are so liable to accidents
as Pittsburg. it would be of great benefit to
the public that medical men should be
recognizable as such on sight. 1t frequently
happens that man hurrying for the nearest
doctor in an accident case passes half a
dozen on the street, the timely aid of any
Of whom might not alone alleviate much
suffering but perhaps save life. Younger
men are not averse to the idea, because it
would throw practice in their way they
would not otherwise obtain.
The objections raised against the use Of
Distinguishing badge by the older and more
conservative physicians are many. Chief
among them Is the advantage which would
be taken OF the professional emblems by
quacks and spurious practitioners. The
adoption of professional badge would, it
is argued, put these on an equal footing with
the qualified men, not alone to the injury of
the latter, but also to the danger of tine pu b.
lie, who would accept the badge as an evil
dence of qualification.
