severe cold. On her arrival in Bombay
she assumed the duties Of her position
in the Victoria hospital, but within a
year her numerous friends in this coun-
try and England were startled with the
news of her death. Thus persisted the
high hopes which her friends cherished
for her and the great ambitions which
she held for herself and which would
have resulted in this Slight and tender
woman accomplishing so great work
for her own country. I suppose no wo
man ever came to America who inspired
more reyerential love than did this wo-
man in every one who inst her, and
there were few dry eyes among those
privileged to call her friend-and they
were many-when her death was an
nounced. Her position alone as a ply
scian entitled her to respect and great
consideration, which, combined with
her tenderness and love for her native
country, seemed to justify the brilliant
representations for her future career
in India.
Since the breaking out of the famine
more and more the eyes of the civilized
world are being turned in the direction
of that unhappy land.
HUI King Eng, the only female Chi
nese graduate of an American medical
college, is the principal physician in the
household of Ii Hung Chang. She
studied medicine at the Woman's Med
ical college of Pennsylvania, and grad
uated with distinction. After completing
her studies, DR.. Eug returned to China,
and became one of the physicians at the
Woman's hospital, at Foo Chow, China.
She will go to London next year as the
only delegate from China to the Wo-
mans congress to be held in that city.
Dr. Eng was born in October, 1866, near
Foo Chow, and was chiefly educated in
her own country. She came to the
United States when 20 years of age to
receive further educational advantages
She was for several terms at the Wes-
leyan university, of Delaware, prepar-
ing herself with special studies for the
course she afterwards pursued at the
Womans Medical college, of Pennsyl-
vanig. DIR. Eng, until her appointment
as chief physician to the household of
Ii Hung Chang, was general practi-
toner, and ranked among the most sue
cessful in the Chinese empire.

"A club in Bombay has been a part of
the General Federation of Womcnis clubs
for several years, while from the re-

are coming from recently organized clubs
asking for admission to the Federation.
Columbia Ceylon, has a prosperous wo-
mans club which meets daily, and has
three departments, Sinllalese English
and dressrnaking, besides a section de-
voted to music. Mrs. Ellen M Henrotin,
who is apparently much better posted
about the feminine clubs of India than
with those of some Southern stakes, has
lately written an interesting article con-
corning the progress being made by
oriental women. Among other items,
indicating the rapid in. ellectual devel-
opment of these women, she says.
DIR. Joshee, a cousin of Pundita Ra-
mabai, was the first Indian woman to
come to the United States. She entered
the medical college for women and chill
dren at Philadelphia, and i'm three years
time took the four years course, going
from there to the college for women and
children near Boston. In six months
time she completed the years course of
post graduate work. She was a very
small, slight woman, who at twelve
years of age had been married. Her
husband had sympathized with her ideas
and had allowed her to leave India and
come 10 this country and enter the hos
pital. She was under the care of Dean
Bodley, who was devotedly attached to
her.
She was of pathetic and charming
personality, most essentially feminine,
and yet strong. She spoke beautiful En-
glish, and could also speak French and
German. 1t was at her invita-. ion that
Ra ma bal came from England, where
she was professor of Sanskrit of Chel-
tenham, to witness DR.. Joshees gradu-
ation from the Woman's Medical Col
lege of Pennsylvania. DR.. Joshee was
extremely anxious to return to India,
and a position in the Victoria hospital

accepted bef1e leaving the country.
her 3nu came over " ldhe IlGT pdCk
ITO Bombay. The night that she grad
uated will ever remain fixed in the minds
of those who were present at the exer-
cises.
When her name was called, the Slight,
graceful woman, gorgeously dressed in
her Indian costume, came forward, and
when the fact was announced to the au-
dience that she. a stranger. had taken
in three years the degree which Ameri-
cam women had taken four years to at
tain, a perfect shout of welcome and APP
prevail greeled her from the great au-
dience. Somehow she made the Ameri-
can women seem commonplace, and
there were many notable women among
them. I think her manner had much to
do with it--so modest, SO absolutely
lacking III any consciousness of self and
so anxious to please.
She seemed to regard her welcome in
America as a tribute to her country
not in the least to herself. She left this
country, and while on her trip home
stopped in London, where she took a
