TALKED OF BIRTHMARKS
Doctors Discuss a Matter of Much Curl
Interest.

Doctors Discuss Matter of Much Curl
Gus Interest.
DIR. Reid Alexander, the president of
the Topeka Academy of Medicine and
Surgery, called the meeting of the doc
tors to order last evening at No. 723 Kan
sas avenue.
The first paper of the evening was
read by DR.. ]. E. Minney. The subject
was Herpes Foster Opthalmicus," COM
monty known as shingles"
He brought a subject with him. 1t
was Mr.. William Bacon of Green, Kan,
and his eyes and face were affected The
disease is one where some part of the
body is improperly nourished and small
blisters form.
DR.. r. E. McVey said that this disease
was treated very differently to what it
was when he was young man. He
said that the remedy for shingles used
to be to put "bIack cats blood" on the
eruptions. or if the sufferer be well
fixed" to- cover the eruptions entirely
with gold. The doctor said laughingly
that these remedies seemed to cure the
case
DR.. J. L. Gilbert read paper an THE
Angioma of the Skin" He had some
microscopic specimens. He told of a
case of that which was under his care.
An operation was necessary, and the doc
tor preserved the tumors and exhibited
them before the society.
One form of angroma are "birth
marks" so commonly seen. One of the
doctors said that he didn't believe in the
theory that was prevalent among all wo-
men. that d child was pre-natally mark ed
by the impressions of the mother. lie
cited as an instance his own wife. One
day he found some very young rats.
They were hardly able to move. He
picked them up in his hands and went to
the house. Just for a joke he told his
wife to hold out her hands. She did so,
and he dropped the young rats into
them. sDo you know" said he, "my wife
said, my child will look like rat and
| could not make her think differently.
Just after the child was born she asked
if it looked like rat You all know my
son, and I'm sure he doesn't look rattys
| think it IS the mission of the medical
profession to dispel all these fears"
DR.. J. c. McClintOck read a paper on
hernia and cited a case.
DR.. r. Z. McVey and DR.. Stewart cited
a case in the discussion, and also DIR.
Schenck.
The following physicians were pres

ROW IN THE AMEN CORNER
Trouble in Methodist Revival Ends in
Discharge of the Offender.

A crowd of colored people from North
Topeka occupied the attention of the
police court this morning. The case was
that of Berry Elder, charged with dis
turbing a Methodist revival meeting
The testimony failed to sustain the
charge. 1t was found that Deacon j ohm
Jordan attempted to make a demonstra-
ton of his authority and Berry did not
accede to his commands quite so readily
as Deacon Jordan considered proper in a
common sinner.
There were various threats about de-
stroying the physiognomy of the deacon
and counter threats, but it was found
that they were made quite as decorously
as such things could be. The preacher
was present and said he was not dis
turhed in the least and knew nothing of
the trouble, so Deacon Jordan was COM
PEELED to pocket his disappointment and
ge Ensminger told Berry he was dis
charged
The notorious Ben Jordan, bootlegger,
was a witness for the defendant Judge
Ensminger asked him, while on the
stand: ''How did you happen to be at
church, anyway"
So" said Jordan, with an expansive
smile, 81 goes sometimes"

Kaw Valley Conductors Want Merit and
Not Age to Count.
At meeting of conductors, brakemen
and trainmen at the hall of Kaw Valley
division No. 30 of the order Of Railway
Conductors, at Kansas City, a vote on the
abolition of the seniority custom on the
Missouri Pacific has been taken, and the
measure carried almost unanin Ously.
Seniority is nothing more or less than
the promotion of men according to their
length Of service in the company. 1t is
the custom on western railways to do this,
but recently the men on the Rock Island
railway decided that merit alone should
be considered in the promotion OF men.
and the best men should go up whether
they had served the company ten years
or ten months The Missouri Pacific
railway officials will now be asked to
abolish seniority

walked into the restaurant between

the clerk 25 cents and instructed him to
feed the tramp, and explained that the
fellow had 'struok him for quarter to
eat on" and thinking it shame for q
man to walk the streets OF this city hun
CRY he wanted him fed.
The hobo seated himself at the ooun.
ter and after a olose perusal of the bill
of fare called for roset turkey. The
cents per order and that but 25 cents
had been left for his meal.

duction from the regular rate and as
sumed an ugly air in enforcing his de-
to the cashier, who informed the hobo
that for Q hungry man % cents would
furnish a good, healthy meal, at which
turkey or nothing" would satisfy him.
and, with burst OF profanity. walked
out OF the restaurant.
