King Eng was born in Foochow to
a heritage of wealth and aristocracy.
Her grandfather, HUI, was a mandarin
of influerce. In the 10th year Of his
age he became a convert to the Jesus

by convincing, even coercive argu-
ments. also reluctantly embraced the
alien faith.
When quite a child King Eng was
placed in the girls boarding school at
Foochow, where, in time, she devel-
cped into a thorough student, ~evircing
marked artistic ability-an inherited
talent. Furtive peeps into the dispen-
sary and wards Of the adjacent hos
p:tal, however, determined effectually
her vocation to be, not art, but medi-
cine.
With that end in view the little
high-caste celestial maid. now in her
18th year, came across the seas, hav-
ing met and conquered bitter, deter
mined opposition. She Immediately
entered the Ohio Wesleyan university,
graduating four years later a master
of arts. Three years more of study
and the degree of doctor of medicine
was conferred by the Woman's Medical
college of Philadelphia, and also after
a brief postgraduate course by the
Philadelphia polytechnic. Then fol-
lowed several months of practical work
in the woman's hospital of Boston.
In December, 1895, DR.. HUI. fully
equipped for her life work, returned
to Foochow to assume charge of Lang
au hospital. A triumphant home-com-
ing it was. Mandarins and coolies,
high and low, met the ship, g to
pay their respects.
Her most priced successes, however,
are not social but professionl. One
instance is related of a coolie wheeling
his blind old mother 1000 miles in a
wheelbarrow to consult the woman

sonage in all the world. No figure in
the latter half of the nineteenth CEN
fury has SO obtruded itself into his
tory.
One of the most singular characters
that has ever been examined is certain
ly that of the victor of Solferino, the
vanquished of Sedan; more cosmopoli-
tan than French, at once a dreamer
and a man of action, by turns and even
sometimes simultaneously democrat
and autocrat, tormented now by the
prejudices of the past, and now by new
ideas, the representative of C~aesarism
and at the end of his reign the cham
pion for popular liberties, taking for
councillors men thoroughly antipodal
their antecedents and their doe
%trines, looking like a sphinx and not
always able to guess his own riddle,
active beneath an indolent appearance,
impassioned despite an imperturbabIe
indifference, energetic yet with an air
of extreme moderation, loving human
ity while contemning it, kind to the
humble and compassionate to the poor,
very seriously occupied with the idea
of lettering the material and spiritual
condition of the majority, victim of the
faults of others still more than of his
own, and better than his destiny.
The republic will always reproacf
the second emperor with having made
the coup d'etat and interfered with lib
erty. The frightful disasters which
concluded his reign cannot be forgot

was partially wrecked. but none of the passen-
gers were injured. The collision was due 1t Is
supposed, to a misplaced SWITCH but none Of
the cable road officials would say what the
cause really was
The cars which were in collision were No. 112
Of the Columbus-ave line, and No. 3S3 Of the
Lexington-ave line. At 7:45 o'clock the Colum
bus-ave. car. which we'll filled with passen-
gers. was going up Broadway. and had reached
point between Twenty-second and Twenty
third SITS. when the Lexington-ave. car, with no
passengers aboard, rounded the curve to be
switched back onto the uptown track for its
return to Harlem. The switchman at the curve
evidently mistook the signal Of the signalman
stationed at Twenty -second-st and threw the
switch so that the northbound Columbus-ave
car, instead of going up Broadway. as was in
tended. ran onto the Lexington-av track.
Both cars came together. end to end, with
terrific crash. John Shanley, twenty four years
old, Of No. J23 West Fiftieth-st., the grpman
Of the Columbus-ave. car, was thrown violently

saw that the smashup was coming. Mrs. Eva

shock, and was taken to an express office near
by. She revived in a short time, however and
refused medical attention. The gripman Of the
Lexington ave. car John Shields. was not hurt.
The headlights on both were smashed.
and the dashboard and front platform Of the
Lexington car were wrecked. Immediate
ly after the accident. the switchman who is
stationed at the curve and who is believed to be
responsible for the trouble. and the signal man
