graduate OF the Glass or 1917, she deserved
recognition. Mr.. Moran thought that

The Years Work Reviewed-OMcers
Elected.
Special TO the jersey City Neaps.
TRENTON, Ocs. IA, 1s92.-The State
Board of Medical Examiners have been in
session for the past two days examining
candidates for medical diplomas. The
examination was held in the Assembly
Chamber at the Capitol. and twenty-four
students underwent the examination.
The result of the work will be made
Known In the near future. Among the
students Is one lady and one colored man.
The latter is from Atlantic City.
The report of the secretary as read at
the business meeting Of the Board proved
to be very interesting. During the fiscal
year ending in July there were 143 candi-
dates examined and Ill licenses issued.
The Board Is continuing its laudable
work of compelling quacks aud charla-
tans to leave the State. Nearly 100 Of
them has been forced 10 leave. But one
candidate, examined and rejected by the
Board, has appealed from It's decision and
carried his case to the Board of Review.
After examining his papers. the Board of
review sustained the action of the Board
Of Examiners.
Under the Midwifery law. passed last
winter, the Board has secured the regis
tration OF 202 midwiyes and has every
reason to believe that the law Is appreci-
ated by reputable midwives as well as bv
the medical profession at large. The
Board has alse secured an amendment to
the Medical law Of 1890. which exempts
lnternes OF hospitals and asyiums from
the provisions of the law, and giving the
Board power to review all Questionable
registration Of diplomas previous to
July, 1890, and TO inquire as to
whether the said registrations were OBJ
tanned by fraud or from fraudulent in
stitutfons. which latter amendment tends
to protect the people against a class of
ignorant mountebanks, ignorant in the
science OF art and medicine, but worldly
wise In the quilting Of the people.
At b election Of officers of the Board
DR.. II. 6. Wagner, of Somerville, was
chosen as President; DR.. William Perry
Watson, Of Jersey City. was reelected
Secretary. and DR.. Edward De Baum, of
Passaic. was chosen as Treasurer.
