DOCTORS AND ADVERTISING.
A Doctors Periodical Expresses Itself
on the Matter

There are advertisements and there are
advertisements. Some time ago The
Weekly had an article In its editorial pages
on medical advertisements or the adver-
tisements OF medical men; and this week
We propose to allude TO the subject again.
We believe there Is Legitimate field of
advertiser g for the physician. III physi-
clan through long years of practice and
patient study has devoted his time TO some
special lire OF practice and has arrived at
the point where his services are OF more
value TO the sick and suffering along his
particular line than the average physi.
clan, he has the right to let the profes-
sion know OF II, and there are Legitimate
ways In which he can do so. III he be n
literary man, he may prepare and read
papers before his medical society, he may
have these papers published in any medi-
cal journal he may wish, and, still fur
ther. he may, through reprints, reach
the whole medical profession and In this
way inform them OF any unusual successes
or failures he may have attained, OF of
any new treatment he may have instituted.
Again, he may enter into discussions
upon these subjects at his society meetings
and his medical brethren will not be slow
to recognize any unusual knowledge of
ability he may display upon the subject
OF which he treats. We would even go
further and allow hilA to insert his card
in the medical journals, stating that his
practice was confined to certain lines.
Such advertisements we unhesitatingly
pronounce as legitimate.
There Is one form OF advertising, that,
TO our minds 10 quite as reprehensible as
other forms OF newspaper advertising.
We allude TO the practice some medical
societies have of allowing the reporters of
the daily press to sit at their meetings to
report their doings and to publish them
In the daily papers. Such a mode OF pre-
cedure should be beneath the dignity OF
any scientific body; ii tends to lower the.
profession in the eyes OF the people and
10 defeat the supposed ends OF the So
clety. IL has been wonder to us many
times that the press did not see through
this thin deception and refuse TO print
the reports without pay, for surely they
do not publish them as news
ii may be proper enough for a member
10 prepare paper and present il before
his society," and the next day have con-
densed report of the article under the
writer's name appear in the daily paper
or for some fellow TO report a successful
operation, and TO read the next day In
the newspaper that the operation is one
OF great delicacy, and seldom performed
with success, but in the case reported
II was attended with perfect success; we
say, IL may be proper, but il does not
look so to the Weekly.
We know there IL strong feeling among
great number OF the profession against
such procedure, and more than once has
the writer heard the more quiet, unobtru-
sive men express their unstinted condem-
nation Of such mode OF action. Atlantic

NOT shaken.
Dunraven still Believes vaIkyr!e Can
Beat Defender,
WILL AGAIN CONTEST FOR CUP
After the Distant Shor Matter
Is Disposed OF

NV YORK, Sept. 27.-It is known that
Lord Dunrayen still believes that the VAL
kyrie IS faster than the Defender, and
that with clear course he thinks that he
could win In the kind of weather which
prevailed on the last two days OF this
years race. He wants 10 race against the
Defender again, and for the Americas
cup and probably will bs accommodated.
IL would be impossible for the New York
Yacht club TO race against the Valkyrie
for the cup until the race with the Distant
Shore has been decided, as Mr.. Rose and
the Royal Victoria Yacht club have a
prior right under the terms of the deed or
gift. But there Is no reason why the
Valkyrie should not sail for the cup after
the Distant Shore has been disposed OF,
and this Is what has been decided upon as
far as can be done without the sanction
of the Royal Yacht squadron and the New
York Yacht club.
The question OF the course has also been
satisfactorily arranged, and there will be
no trouble. Dunraven is willing to nc
cept the statement of the committee that
they will do their best TO keep the Sandy
Hook course clear, and now believes that
they will have little trouble in so doing.
VIII Not Be Sailed Ir Secret.
The public will be fully informed OF the
dates for the matches, and IL Is believed
that patrol fleet can be brought to-
gether which will keep the course clear,
even IL the captains OF the excursion boats
have not learned lesson flsm the races
this fall.
The Defender will be chosen to race
against the Distant Shore and the VAL
kyrie without doubt, as the owners Of the
latest creation of Herroshoff are fully con-
vinced that she is the fastest yacht anoat,
and as one yachtsman expressed himself,
"She is world beater." There Is no
likelihood OF any other yacht being built
TO try her fort tunes against the Defender
and as the Distant Shore will race some
time early In August, in all probability
the valkyrie III will be able to get her
races on 1T about the Same time as this
year.

OYSTER BAY, N. Y, Sept. 27.-The race
between the half-rater yachts, Spruce Nv,
owned by j. A. Brand Of the Minima
Yacht club Of England, and Ethelwynn,
Captain G. j. Field Of Indian Harbor
Yacht club, which was sailed yesterday,
ended In . very unsatisfactory manner
After sailing one round of six miles, Mr.
Field decided that he would not continue
the journey, because the wind was so
strong and the sea so choppy that the con.
ditions were not those in which half
rnter should sail. Nevertheless. Spruce
covered the entire distance, despite wind
and sea. When Ethelwynn quit she was
6m. SIS. behind. The action of Mr.. Field,
In giving up, occasioned many uncom-
plimcntary remarks. The race, which was
over course le miles In all, was the third

Colonel WcClure's Little Joke,

notice that my friend. the great
editor, Colonel Mcclure, is in the
south, says correspondent of the
Philadelphia Star. He was in
Birmingham the other day, where
he made speech to a big crowd
After having given the Alabamians
some eXcusable taffy concerning
their ability to produce iron at a
cheaper rate than we in Pennsyl-
vania can, he let himself loose on
the silver question. He said he
wanted to admonIsh Alabama of
the threatened coInbina ton of the
west and south on the free silver
issue against the rest of the country.
Their theory would entail injury
only on those pursuing the fallacy,
The men who are talking this doc
trine are either knaves Or fools.
That is precisely the way in which
the colonel talked when the propo-
sition was before congress, a year
and half ago, to repeal the Sher-
man silver purchasing act. He
told the people of Philadelphia
that the repeal of the act would
put an end to hard times, and he
denounced the opponents Of repeal
as knaves and fools. The colonel
at Birmingham wound up his re-
marks with the following piece of
extraordinary information:
Cali the populists, a majority of
the democrats and two-thirds
of the republicans in the last con-
gress dishonored themselves in re-
fusing to support. the president in
his scheme to save the country $l6,.
100000. The goldbugs. whom they
berated so much, had come in and
saved the country's credit and
charged Upper cent for doing SO"
We have been wondering whether
the colonel really believed what he
told the Alabamians, and, if he is
laboring under the impression that
they believed him. Since the de-
feat of Pattison we have noticed a
tendency in the great editor to be
eccentric in bis public utterances.
1t looks as if he had determined
to lift the limit from his imagin-
alton. That idea about the gold
bugs coming to the rescue
ofthe governments credit is good
a little far-reaching, but still good.
Marble Hill press., 1895-04-04

They, made a clean S6,00O,0O6 ou
of the transaction, but if it had mo-
been for the great love they bore
the country they might have done
some squeezing and raked into
their Golfers twice or three times
six millions.
The colonel should be a little
more careful in his. assertions, or
when he gets beyond Alabama he
may run up against some people
who are better informed as to
what is going On in the world than
are the Alabamians. If the colonel
is really deficient in information.
l will help him out. Two weeks
ago the same 4 per cent bonds, or
"Grover's," as they are called, were
worth in the open market Is per
cent more than the government re-
ceived from Growers English syn
dicate in payment for them. As
Colonel Mcclure we'll knows, the
London Economist knows all that
is to be known about the dealings
of the governments of the world
with syndicates and financial agents.
For generations it has made study
OF such matters, and stationed as it
is AT the center Of international
finance 1t has every possible facility
for comprehensive and accurate
information on the subject. Well,
here is what The Economist saws
OF the recent bargain Grover and
his man, Secretary Carlisle, made
between our government and the
syndicate: "The new loan has GER
tainly proved an immense success
for the syndicate. Speaking broad
ly, it was taken by them at l04 IL,
and its issue price averaged lis.
And now we see the United States
compelled to allow Intermediates
to earn profit Of over s5,00O,000
on a loan of S65, 100000.

The soldier who arrested Mr.. Davis
said he had a shawl thrown over his
shoulders when he first saw him.
81 reported this circumstance to
General Wilson, when returned to
Macon with the distinguished pris-
oner. The story was telegraphed
out from there and in the confusion,
by misunderstanding, the simple
fact of wearing his wite's shawl was
magnitied into a ridiculous story
that the president of the southern
confederacy was disguised in wo
mans clothes. [ have always

quently atpost reunions have made

that are sometimes pleasant to be-

| could, by allowing a false impress
sion, which I was unwittingly in
strumental in creating, to prevail.
The capture took place in forest
of pine trees near Irwinville, irwin
county, Ca, where Mr.. Davis, with
his small party, had pitched two
tents. The, party consisted Of Mr..
Davis and Reagan, Colonel Harris,
his private secretary; Mrs. Davis
and her sister, teamsters and few
unarmed soldiers. The larger fight
ing escort bad left him the dry be-
fore, and Mr.. Davis appeared very
pettish and blamed his wife, in my
presence, for delaying them. She
was on the way to her home in MIS-
sissippi and Mr.. Davis's separation
from General Basil Dukes cavalry
escort and the delay cost him his
liberty. All other prisoners except
the chief were paroIed. The fallen
as he then appeared, was
tallish, but thin-featured and ner-
vous, but very digniied and stately, |
and would pass as a high-toned gen
tleman in any crowd, while he was
dressed modestly, but unusually |
well for the time

How Davis Was CAPTURED.

The visit Of the Wisconsin state
commission to this city, says a
Chattanooga dispatch, to finally fix
the positions of tAeir troops at the
battle of ChickamA Auga in prepara-
tion for the locatiobfof monuments
has brought to light the real fact,
as to the capture OF. Jefferson Davis.
The head of the confederacy has al
ways been misrepresented as
dressed when taken prisoner in wo-
mans clothes and the enormous
hoop skirts then worn by the gen
tie sex.
Brigadier General Henry Harm
den, then lieutenant colonel Of the
First Wisconsin cavalry, is present
Us member of the commission and
denies the current stories as false
in this particular. General Harm
den, though now white haired vet
eran of seventy-three years, grows
indignant whenever he talks Of what
he terms the gross exaggeration of
very natural action by Mr.. Davis.
In relating the story he said:
"May 6. 1865, | was specially de-
tailed from Macon, with $50 picked
men Of the First Wisconsin cavalry,
the only command then with Spen-
Ger repeating carbines, by General
James H. Wilson to overtake and
capture Jeffetson Davis, who was
making his way in the path of Breck-
inridge and Benjamin south via
Florida to Cuba. Our course de-
scribed a circle, so that we were
overtaken by Colonel Pritchard,
who was sent out two days later
with the First Michigan cavalry.
The latter pushed ahead during the
night.as news Of 100000 reward
offered May 9Th had reached camp
before his troops LETT, but we came
upon them before day of May 10th.
They fired upon us in the dark. We
replied and drove them back, and
capturing Michigan cavalryman
FIRST discovered we were fighting
our own soldiers. Two of Colonel
Pritchard's men were killed and 4
humber wounded.
"Davis was encamped with a par
ty of forty or fifty and six rods
away from the skirmishing lines,
Just over little swamp and asleep
at the time but was wakened by the
first firing, and, dressing quickly,
stepped out into the door Of his tent.
As he did so private of the First
Michigan cried, halt but did not
know who he had captured I'LL
approached. The first man ! nd
