"ShinnY" is Now On.

The boys in the northwest section have
stopped playing ball in the streets and have
taken up ''shinny." This is nothing like the
old-time game of handy or shinny, which was
played with stick curved at the end and a
small hard ball. The 'shinny" is played with
a small block of wood, shaped something like
a boomerang. and long fiat bat When this
block of wood is struck on one end with the
bat and goes whirling through the air neither
the player nor the unlucky passer-by can tell
where the thing is going to strike. Ball-play-
ing in the streets is bad enough, but this
''shinny'' is positively dangerous for the
block is heavy enough and sharp enough at
the ends to cut and bruise if it should strike
a person in the face. The police beats are
very long in the quiet northwest .s section and
their sport. Several residents, however, told
SUNDAY HERALD reporter yesterday morn
ing that they would make complaint to the
authorities and endeavor to have the practice
stopped.

Asthma Cured.

The mere fact that Bergen's Asthma Cure is
positive specific for asthma and hay fever is
sufficient to at once attract the attention of
sufferers as well as to call forth the admira-
tion of the scientific world.
We naturally feel proud of the fact that we
are able to present to suffering humanity q
remedy so full of merit, at the same time de-
void of all Objectionable features being ap.
plicable to all cases.
For bronchitis, cough, and tagging con-
sumption this medicine has no equal.
This medicine is cheaper, surer, and safer
than any other. For sale by

The Patent-Leather Shoe.

1t is only within the last year or SO that the
patent-leather shoe has been used to any great
extent for everyday wear. But it has grown
nightly in popular favor, and is to-day con-
sidered by well-dressed people as almost in
dispensable. Aside from the neat, finished
appearance which it lends to the well-dressed
person, they are very durable, and are made
in great variety of styles. There is no doubt
that they will be ''the shoe" for the coming
season, and in anticipation of the great de-
mand Messrs. Wilson 81 Carr, of 929 F street
northwest, have prepared for your inspection
the handsomest and most varied assortment
in this line of footwear ever shown in Wash
ington. The patent-leather shoe is somewhat
risky at best, but It's wearing qualities depend
in great measure upon the care taken OF
them. Messrs. Wilson & Carr feel safe in as
serting that their grade of $5 patent-leathei
shoes is not surpassed anywhere for the price
and the $3.50 and $40 grades can be relied
upon as being the best obtainable. Special
attention is called to these patent-leathel
goods. but they are prepared to show you {
complete stock in other lines of footwear, ant
would be glad to have the opportunity of do
ing so.

CORRESPONDENCE of THE SUNDAY HERALD.
PHILADELPHIA, May s. - What a shock it
would have given the ghosts of our grand
mothers could they have seen on last Wednes-
day noon thirty-seven female bachelors in col
lege cap and gown at the Academy Of Music, as
they marched on the platform, two by two to
take the Degree Of Doctor Of Medicine Such
wonderful changes for women have marked
the last decade! Statistics, that never lie ex-
cept by accident, assert that twenty-five hun
dred women in these United States have taken
their degree and hung out their shingles as
medical practitioners. Hence 1t is no longer a
novelty for women to graduate as physicians.
But it is novelty for the graduates to adopt
the English academic gown and cap. 1t
was more than the ordinary womanly tempest
In the teapot that agitated the members OF the
graduating class Of '9l Of the Woman's
Medical College of Pennsylvania when
a class gown was first talked of
While some accepted the innovation as a good
thing, others of the pretty maidens of good
old Quaker stock did not, but clung to their
simple gowns as they still cling to their plain
cosmopolitan Washingtonian by talking of
the first and second days of the week and of
the months numerically. For all that how
ever, these descendants of good William
Penn's colonists were never slow to keep step
with modern progress. The annual com
mencements of the Womens Medical College
is festal day with the mothers and daughters
who have enjoyed its advantages, the first
now for thirty-nine years. All its graduates
have not been from home, however. They
register on the alumn@ rolls from Maine to
California, including several from the Dis
trct of Columbia, of whom DR.. Ida j. Hell
berger and the late DR.. Anne E. Rice, with
DR.. Jeanette s. Sumner, are among the
number Dr. Elizabeth B. Reed, credited to
New Hampshire, is also resident of Wash
ington now, and one of this years graduating
class.
The Academy of Music held fine audience
on Wednesday last. The platform was no.
ticeable for the absence of flowers. The re-
forms introduced by these college women have
this to be said for them: the college gown and
cap prevent all envy on account Of dress
that might occur from difference in the finan-
cial circumstances Of the young women gradu-
ates and from some of the graduates receiv-
ing superabundance of flowers, while others
far from home and friends received none. The
bouquets and souvenirs were, however, dis
tributed quietly back of the stage after Che
ceremonies were over. DR.. Hannah T. Croas-
dale addressed the graduates in valedictory
not more than fifteen minutes long, but as
full of points as good housewives pincush-
ion is of pins. Then came the benediction.

The name of Thomas Alva Edison is a
household word throughout the whole civil

familiar to all. But his inventive genius
Is so prolific that it is difficult to keep pace
with it. The latest device of his is called

in combination with the photograph en-
ables the exact reproduction, on a minia-
ture scale at present, OF the movements of
any speaker, singer or actor, the actual
