A sucsestion for CITY rhssicsans.

The emergency which occurred re
Gently in a family living above Twenty
third street and below Fifty-ninth stree
should serve as a suggestion to physi
clans of that district. Shortly after l.
o'clock in the forenoon the wife an(
mother of the household referred to fel
and spralned her ankle as she was abou
to enter her carriage in front7of her resi-
dence. She was Immediately assisted
into the house and the coachman DIS
patched to the f nily physician.
He soon returned with the word tina
the doctor was out, and a round among
the medical Offices followed with TIT
same result. Every physician in tina
neighborhood appeared to have the samt
Office hours and not one could be reached
It was over. an hour before the suffering
woman got medical assistance, and thes
it was through her work III a certain
hospital that one of the surgeons wasdis
patched to Der relief.
1t would seem to be a good plan fol
doctors to arrange their Office hourswitl
some regard to those of other medica.
men in the same district, so that-one OF
two should be always on call, good az

Giant Chestnut Tree.

Probably the largest chestnut tree in
Connecticut stands in the town O EMans-
field on the land of Mr.. Whipple Green.
ItWaspointed 6ut4o me by Mr.. Nathan
Stark~eather. We visited it op:Aug.
27,s1s90. 1t is In an open pasture, about
three-fourtm of q. mile east from Mans
field Station, perhaps fifty rods from the
house Of Mr.. Green and not far from
the travelled road. A small brook runs
8 short distance from the tree. The
circumference is twenty-threeGfeet at
four feet from the ground. It is heavily
buttressed all around, and the trunk is
apparently sound. Four large branches
have been sent out;sthe lowest, ten feet
from the ground; measures sixteen feet
four inches in circumference and ex-
tends toward the northeast. The cir
conference of the buttresses, OF rather
of their roots, exposed above the ground
is ffty-four feet.
Some of the large and high branches
have been, broken, the result probably
of severe snow or ice storms, so that it
is not perfectly symmetrical. The di-
ameter ct the spread of the branches
from Inc northeast to the southwest is
! eighty-three feet, and from the north
west to the southeast 100 feet. Mr..
Starkweather estimates the height to be
eighty feet. 1t is 2 noble specimen of
the American chestnut: which has with
stood many years of winds and storms
and promises to live many years yet I'M
less attacked by the woodlands ak. Let
Us hope he will spare that ree.-Gurdon
W. Russell in Hartford Times.

A Query for a New York Club.

a paragraph appears in n of the
daily papers under this heading: Car
negie Complimented-The University
Club Entertains Him at a Banquet.
Following this is an account of the ban
auet. Mr.. Carnegie was, in the opinion
of the.reporter, apparently the guest of
honor. AS ne puts It, "the members IN
tertained Andrew Carnegie and ex-
President White, of Cornell university"
If the reporter thought as we do, tie
precedence should have,been thus, Sex:
President White, of~Cornell. and Mr..
Andrew Carnegie"
But why should the University club
entertain Mr.. Andrew Carnegie? He is
opposed to university education, and says
so very frankly. He wrote a series of
letters to the New York Tribune on Che
folly OF the higher education. He has
of course a right to his opinion, but,
holding such opinions, why should the
University club do him honor::-San
Francisco Argonaut.

mr.. Moren Mackenzie.s Income.

The amount of money earned by DE-
Morell Mackenzie during his thirty years
of practice must have been very large,
Within a few years of his commencing
practice Gin 1862 he was making $4,000
q year, and his income rapidly increased
as his reputation spread, TIL about 1917
he touched high water mark, with "tak.
ings'' of from $50, 900 10 $4,000 a year
an enormous figure for a practice. the
bulk os which consisted of guinea fees

poorraste of Two Enelishmen.

It is a common thing to see the Eng
lishman say o. write things which no
American would utter or put on record.
Lord Ronal Cover, representing one
of the noblest Of English houses, finds
no ST ame whatever in telling in his pub
lished diary how he used to write squibs
in the newspapers, satirizing his hosts OF
the day before because they let the smell
of dinner come into the hall. Mr.. R. l..
Stevenson is credited with a remark al
most equally graceful to the effect that
the reason Thoreau lever drank vine
was because there was no wine in Amer
lea fit to drink.
When we consider at how many houses
IN this country this live'3g writer must
have been a guest. and how cordially
the hosts musthave shared with him the
best they had, poor though it might be,

noticed a curious incident in a Broad
way car the other day. The car wasn't
exactly crowded. but there was only one
seat left. The car came 20 full stop and
! thought q lot of women would come in
looking for seats, and was debating with
myself as TO my chances of getting a

10 my surprise the newcomers were

ished that the car had stopped, for each
one of the trio walked with falterlng
step. Each one had white hair az well,
and it was apparent that the youngest was
at least ~ years old, while the Oldest may
have antedated him by ten years.
Seeing the single unOccupled seat they
all paused before It aud each offered it In
turn 70 the other.
"Sit down." said tho SO-year-old. Il am

Soon after the 7O-year-old and 75-year-old
got of the car, and before any of the three
had consented to take seat. Then, with
q sigh of content, the 80-year-old sank INTO
the place murmuring, 1--WE boys will be

AN EVENING WITH THE sPooKs.
Several Spirits Are Visible for Awhile
hut soon Disappear.


Mrs. Carrie NJ. Sawyer. the lady spirit
ualist, who has recently been holdinE
seances in this city, gave an exhibition OF
her skill as medium at No. 10 north
Fourth street last night. Several ladies'
we're present, and representatives OF tue
daily papers were also on hand 10 note the
wonderful experiments.
The medium commenced her manifesto
tons" by retiring into closet set apart
from the rest of the room by curtains
The parlor was darkened and Mrs. Sawyer
was tied with q rope so that 1t would nave
been almost impossible for her TO move.
One of the ladies performed on an organ,
and then the ghOstly white figures
appeared. One took the form OF
an infant and walked around near
the closet. The spectators could
hear the footsteps of the child on the
carpet. The most mysterious feature or
the entertainment was the appearance OF a
white mass about the size of a spool OIL
cotton on the floor. This gradually became
enlarged and fOated toward the ceiling
untli 1t attained the dimensions OF large
veil. Several figures. which appeared TO
be the size of full-grOwn men, loomed up
before the curtain which obscured the
splritualist, and there were one or Two
"spooks" which looked like women Inc
company could determine whether tine
spirlts were men or women, but they
could not see the faces distinctly.
Little Maudie." the interlocutor for
the medium, chaited necessarily with the
spectators. She always remained invlsi-
bic. but was decidedly loquacious. Some
of the other figures also talked, ana in one
instance the tones of man with heavy
baritone voice could be distinctly heard.
Towards the end of the evening the spirits
disappeared, and nothing could lnouce
them to show themselves again.
The newspaper representatives who at
tended the seance carefully inspected the
closet in which Mrs. Sawyer was concealed,
and Judging from its interior IT would
have been impossible for the spirituaIist
TO have moved in such a way as TO have
produced the figures. II she is ventrllo-
auist she is marvellous one, and has
wonderful skill in changing her voice.
