The emergency which occurred re-
Gently in family living above Twenty
third street and below Fifty-ninth street
should serve So a suggestion to physi-
clans of that district. Shortly after II
o'clock in the forenoon the wife and
mother of the household referred to fell
and sprained her ankle as she was about
to enter her carriage in front of her resi-
dence. She was Immediately assisted
into the house and the coachman dis
patched to the family physician.
He soon returned with the word that
the doctor was out, and a round among
the medical offices followed with the
same result. Every physician in that
neighborhood appeared to have the same
Office hours and not one could be reached.
1t was over an hour before the suffering
woman got medical assistance, and then
it was through her work in a certain
hospital that one Of the surgeons was dis
patched to her relief.
1t would seem to be good plan for
doctors to arrange their Office hours with
some regard TO those of other medical
men in the same district. so that one or
two should be always ON call, good as
well for the profession as for the laity.--

A Ginnt Chestnut Tree.


Probably the largest chestnut tree in
Connectie~t stands in the town of Mans
field on the land of Mr.. Whipple Green.
1t was pointed out to me by Mr.. Nathan
Starkweather. We visited it on Aug.
27, 1890. 1t is in an open pasture, about
three-fourths of 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
short distance from the tree. The
circumference is twenty-three feet at
four feet from the ground. 1t is heavily
buttressed all around, and the trunk is
apparently sound. Four large branches
have been sent out; the lowest, ten feet
from the ground, measures sixteen feet
four inches in circumference and ex-
tends toward the northeast. The cir
cumference of the buttresses, or rather
of their roots, exposed above the ground
is fifty-four feet.
Some of the large and high branches
have been broken, the result probably
of severe snow or ice storms, 80 that it
is not perfectly symmetrical. The di-
ameter of the spread of the branches
from the 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 a noble specimen of
the American chestnut, which has with
stood many years of winds and storms
and promises to live many years yet un-
less attacked by the woodmans ak. Let
us hope he will spare that tree.-Gurdon
w. Russell in Hartford Times.

There Is Vast Army of Busy city Peo-
pic who yorlt All NIGHT

There IL = Vast Army of Busy city Peo-
pie Who work All Night.
DID ION ever stand at Clark and Mad
ison streets after midnight Have you
any idea Of the number of persons who
look upon midnight as the world in gen.
eral does upon noon? Il is a vast army
that tolls while others sleep, and it keeps
busy great number of attendants.
For the benefit of the great number Of
night workers dozens of stores are kept
open nights-restauran drug stores,
baker shops and saloons. OF course these
are not patronized exclusively by the all
night workers. They catch the transient
trade Of that big community that loves
to roam about when other folks are in
bed.
1t is queer community, this night
crowd. First comes the actor fresh from
his nights labors. He may deserve to
be classed with the night worker, though
he disappears at or 3 o'clock. The men
of the boards are followed by the men Of
the tables-the walters of the big down
town restaurants which close between
1s and l. By the time these are well on
their way home comes the first phalanx
of the newspaper brigade, the "day" re-
porters for the morning papers.
These linger little and give way to
the first batch of printers. The printers
straggle along all through the night, for
they get of in gangs-increasing as the
night advances. With them, too, comes
u portion of the night editorial force
the men who have remained after the
departure of the reporters to edit the
work of the latter.
These all gather by ones and twos un-
til by O'clock, when the night reporters
cease their labors, the throng of printers,
of editors, of reporters, is a great one.
They are lovers of gossip and good
fellowship and gather in the various
down town resorts to break bread or sip
8 social glass previous to q tedious
journey in horse car. These cars, by
the way, are run for the benefit of the
many night workers.
Then comes the crowd of night ram
blers-men about town-and people who
attend dances. All these furnish liv-
ing to- the fruit venders, shot tomale"
and ''red hot" men, etc., as well as the
storekeeper
The vast multitude of early risers--
the dinner pail brigade-are hurrying to
their places Of daily labor when the last
of the night workers leave for home.
These are the newspaper stereotypers
and pressmen, the bakers, the telephone
girls and those who work in the all
night stores. Chicago Tribune.

and came out and blamed him for
locking his brother up. He warned
him away three times when Pugh
put up his fists and said "G--d
d--n you, hit me-" at which he,
Gibson struck him with his bare fist.
He used no weapon on him, and
they had always been good friends.

The Spring.


OF all seasous of the year, Is the one
for making radical changes In re-
gard To health. During the winter,
the system becomes TO certain ex-
tent clogged with waste, and the
blood loaded with impurities, owing
TO lack of exercise, close conflne-
ment In poorly ventilated shops and
homes, aud other causes. This IL
the cause Of the dull, sluggish, tired
feeling 50 general at this season, and
which must be overcome, or the
health may be entirely broken
down. Hoods Sarsaparilla has at
tanned the greatest popularity all
over the country as the favorite
spring medicine. 1t expels the ac-
cumulation of impurities through
the bowels, kidneys, liver, lungs and
skin, gives tO the blood the purity
and quality necessary 10 good health
and Overcomes that tired feeling.

ings of this week at 7:30.

Fay Mills for all.
7:30 p. m.-Farewell service.
MONDAY MEETINGS.
In the afternoon Rev. Kellerman
led in prayer and Mr.. Greenwood
sang 1.-THE Harvest is passing" Mr..
Mills chose for his text words re-
corded in John 11,2S: "The Master
is come and calieth for thee" and
drew an analogy between the death,
burial and resurrection Of Lazarus
and a revival of religion. 1t was an
earnest, eloquent appeal to church
members to take away the stones of
indifference, of secret sins, of bitter
ness, of any and everything that
separates them from God.
MONDAY NIGHTS MEETING.
The church was filed again to its
utmost, a number of camp stools
even being brought into use. Rev.
Mills took for his text John 11:39:
"Therefore they could not believe"
The evangelist said. Our theme to-
night is the most solemn we could
possibly take, the question whether
a man can be physically alive and
spiritually dead.
Up to this time $50 persons had
signed cards declaring their inten-
tions of leading q Christian life.
THE MORNING
prayer meeting was larger than ever
before. Mr.. Mills did not attend
these meetings. A reporter found
him at his hotel this afternoon and
this is
WHAT HE SAID.
"You have very fine town. The
people are very responsive, quiet
and attentive and very we'll be-
haved at all the meetings. Your
ministers are pleasant men. The
people would have filled building
three times as large and the after
noon services were unusually well
attended for a town of this size.
There should be some larger churches
built and when come again l trust
no one need be turned away. 1
hope to come here again before /
die, but life is uncertain. We go to
Tacoma, Los Angeles, Oakland,
San Francisco, Salt Lake, Denver
and st. Louis"
Mr.. Greenwood said the people
had sustained them well and been
very patient in the jam that took
place at each meeting. "The choir
people were willing and faithful and
did as well as in any town of its
size we we're ever inn
BUSY MEN.
Messrs. Mills and GreenwC cd
were eth very busy at their rooms
at the Willamette. They conduct
large correspondence, and answer
nlaLy personal letters of inquirers.
Mr.. Mills corrects proofs of his SER
mons for large number of religious
papers and also prepares them for
publication in book form. Their
stay in Salem has been a pleasant
one and that they have left an in
dellible impression for good upon
the community is the belief of
many.
