Colored Women Doctors.
Letter in the Philadelphia Record.


Several years ago Mrs. Halle Tanner Dill
lon, graduate of the Womens Medical
College Of Philadelphia, and a daughter of
Bishop Tanner of this city, had the honor
Of being the first woman to pass the state
board Of medical examiners in the state of
Alabama. and later at Tuskegee, Alabama,
acted as practicing physician in the state.
Later Mrs. L. Hughes Brown Of North
Carolina, also graduate of Women's Medi-
cal College of Philadelphia, passed the state
boards of both North Carolina and South
Carolina, being the first woman of any race
to practice in both of those states. During
the past few months Miss Eliza Grier Of
North Carolina appeared before the state
board of Georgia. She passed her examina-
ton with honor, and is now a practicing
woman to arrive at this honor in that state,
and again the Womens Medical College Of
Philadelphia is honored by its graduate.
Now comes the word that Miss Emma
Wakefield, a lady of color, has the honor of
becoming the first woman to practice medi-
cine in the state of Louisiana, having pass
ed her examination with honors Miss
Lutte Lytle of Tennessee, and Miss Ida
Plat of Illinois, are successful practicing
lawyers in their respective states.
At the present time there are, I believe
but two practicing pharmacists of the fe-
male sex in Philadelphia; one Of these is
colored lady, Miss Julia Hughes of North
Carolina. now acting pharmacist at Fred
erick Douglass Hospital.

What People Say.


Uncle George Taylor: I saw it COM
ing.
]. d. Medill: The pops stsid at home.
There was not full vote in the county
by several hundred.
James Kesling: Well, like some other
pops, will have to take the oath Of al.
iegiance.
John Rudkin: II the newly elected
officers attend to their duties properly, 10
1900 they may be reelected when the
salaries will be higher.
Fred Miller: I never thought my
roommate. Ed Kelso, would get there.
On the whole am glad did not get the
nomination for state senator.
VIM. Lee, ST.. In some ways I am
glad and in some ways l am sad. But
we must get ready for the greater strug-
gle in 1900.
Representative Enalehart: did not
expect 30 big q landslide.
The Yakima herald. [volume] (North Yakima, W.T. [Wash.]) 1889-1914, 1898-11-10

DR.. Gum: Some OF the candidates
ran close against their opponents, and
had there been = full vote, the election
would have been somewhat different.
DR.. Frank: did MT look for COM
plete victory in the county, but counted
on half the repu blcans being successful.
g. M. Allen: The agricultural and la
Dor elements never will get together and
vote for their joint int tests.
Receiver Cannon: II is amusing to
hear the different excuses the fusionists
urge for their defeat. One blames single
tax, another the revised comparative
fusion statement, and another
Lewis attack on the war record of the
administration, and so on to the end of
the chapter.
Register Walter Reed: The people are
loyal, and the attacks made on Mckinley
reacted ana brought defeat.
Ira NJ. Krutz: In the First ward,
where l was inspector, noticed four.
teen ballots straight peoples party except
an Y for Englehart.
Commissioner Barge: The fight in
Spokane was between Wilson and Tur-
ner, and Wilson won.
DR.. Hill: 1t was famous victory.
I'll 20 over to Tacoma and participate in
the jubilee at the armory there.
w. H. Redman: A certain fusionist
told me two weeks ago how it would be
in Yakima county. and it is just so.
j. NJ. Henderson: The soldier boys
voted against Tucker last time but know
a good many that voted for him this
election.
Charles Carpenter: did not look for
so complete reversal as it is in this
state.
Sydney Arnold: What sommersault
1t was sure enough.
Geo. s. Hough: The attack on the
war record OF the administration did the
business for fusion in the main.
Mayor Fechter The underlying cause
OF the fusion defeat in this state was the
disgust with the effort to array class
against class.
Ex-senator Lesh: The cause of the
landslide in my judgment is because
James Hamilton Lewis unnecessarily
projected the war issue in the campaign
and for the further reason the fusion leg
islature lamentably failed in giving the
relief to the people they 80 piofusely
promised.
Thomas M. Vance: l almost wish
were Yakima Jones instead OF Vance
now.
A. H. Benson: The fusionists might
as well quit, for they will never get back
into power again.
Auditor Flint: General Apathy WAS
in.command Of Yakima's fusion forces.
Clerk Coe: The 100000 democratic
majority in Texas, makes me long for my
old home.
Sheriff Shaw: 1t went the wrong way
wrong.
Deputy Treasurer Donovan: There
were 200 populists who did not vote.
Vestal Snyder: am looking for that
old song, 'I've Seen Better Days"
HERALD: We were unfortunately
right in our prediction that il would be
cold day when Jack Shaw got left.

Military Courage.

The question of the comparative pro
portion of really brave men in any army
will probably never be determined.
Great officers ON the continent keep
their knowledge ON that subject rigor-
ously as professional secret and as
sumo rs certainty that all soldiers arc
brave. They know very we'll, however
that they are not, and when contiden-
tial will admit, rs Marshal Won Moltke
once did in public, that with great
number it takes discipline, and severe
discipline, too, to induce them to face
shells unshrinkingly, American officers
have been known to acknowledge that
of their men, who are rs brave rs any
i'll the world. 20 per cent would run
away il they could, and i'll every army,
even ours, which man enters only Of
free will, there is certain proportion
who literally cannot overcome their
fears. They are stricken with sort OF
paralysis The proportion is probably
not high III amy army, the majority, il
in health, being able to do their duty
and having intense motives TO do it, but
neither is the proportion high of those
who literally feel no fear.-London

was all ready he started the fan and
produced current Of air that was
ample to float n kite.
ct was great fun for young Rufus to
sit in the back parlor and fly his kite
in the front, and for time everything
went all right but ON an unfortunate
day Rufy, not satisfied with the amount
Of wind the fan was blowing, undertook
to make it blow harder, which IS some

Mr. Zingtocl, who, though rich, was

Between 1850 and 1878 it is certain
that some millions of blesbok, wilde

stroyed III the Transyaal and Orange
Free State. The slaughter was SO prodi-
gious and the variety of wild animals
SO great in these wild regions of South
Africa that the result made sensible
difference in the leather industry of Eu-
rope The markets Were filled with
skins which when tanned, gave leather
