THE GROWTH OF CITY POPULA. TIONS

The sudden growth of great cities Is the first result of the phenomenon of inn migration which we have to note. We think of this as essentially an American problem We comfort ourselves in our failures of municipal administration with that thought. This is a grievous decep- ton. Most of the European cities have increased in population more rapidly than in America. Shaw has emphasized the nicipal Government iH Europe" This is particularly true of great German urban centers. Berlin has outgrown our own metropolis, New York, in less than a generation, having in twenty-five years added as many actual new residents as Chicago, and twice as many as Philadel- phia Hamburg has gained twice as many in population since 1875 as Boston; Leipsic has distanced St. Louis.
 The same demographic outburst has oc- cured in the smaller German cities as we'll Cologne has gained the lead over Cleveland, Buffalo and Pittsburg,. al though in 1880 it was the smallest of the four Magdeburg has grown faster thar Providence in the last ten years. Dussel- dorf has likewise outgrown St. Paul. Be. yond the confines of the German empire from Norway to Italy, the same Is true Stockholm has doubled its population Copenhagen has increased two and one. half times; Christiania has trebled 1t: creased from 1S4 000 in 1860 to 450 900 in 1894 Vienna, including its suburbs, has growr three times over within the same period Paris from 1881 to 1891 absorbed four-fffth. of the total increase of population for al of France within the same period.-Pro lessor Ripley in Appleton's Popular Sci ence Monthly for March.

been aroused over this election for president, the supporters of Dr. Kerr claiming that Dr. Anderson had ps d the expenses of thirty-siX members to come to Fresno to vote for Dr. McNutt pr. MacMonagle spoke very feelingly in favor of Kerr, and said that while he liked and respected Dr. McNutt, he disapproved of the methods of Dr. An derson and Dr. McNutt in undertaking 8 to secure the latter's election.
 While the voting was in progress pr. s. o. l.. Potter, a supporter of Dr. Nc Mutt, and a member of the faculty Of the College of Physicians and Sur geons, and pr. MacMonagle became in volved in an alterc2tion. and Dr. Pot ter struck Dr. MacMonagle in the face with an umbrella. The blow was severe and made an ugly bruise on Dr. Mac Monagle's forehead. During the alter cation Dr. Potter had exclaimed:
 "Dr. MacMonagle, do you mean to say that I am a liar?"
 T did not call you a liar, sir, but if you wish to construe my remarks that way you may do so," pr. MacMonagle replied.
 instantly pr. Potter lunged at Dr.. MacMonagle with his umbrella, and, as Dr. MacMonagle lodged, the ferule of the umbrella struck him on the fore head. They were at once separated, and Dr. Potter attempted to bite the arms of the men who interfered and held him. Dr. Arnold struck at Potter to help MacMonagle but was re- strained and did not reach his man.
 Another encounter occurred in the melee between pr. Potter and pr. Arn- old, but was not serious.
 A motion was made by pr. Montgom- cry to appoint committee of three to at once investigate Dr. Potter'S assault and report to the society before the end agle opposed the motion, saying that he would personally attend to Dr. Potter, but the resolution was carried. The committee, composed of Drs. Pedlar, Robertson and Brainard, received the testimony of Dr. Potter and his friends.
 Dr. Kerr was elected president by one vote. forty-eight ballots being cast for Kerr and forty-seven for McNutt. Dr. Hodghead of San Francisco was. elected secretary over Dr. Cheney, the incum- bent, by a majority of two votes. Dr. Pedlar was elected first vice-president and pr. Cole of Los Angeles second president. Drs. Williamson, Wads- worth, Carpenter, Barbat, Kelly, Fris- bic and Dodge were elected as the Board of State Medical Examiners, with Drs. Woodward, Philip M. Jones and Howard as alternates.
 In the evening the society was ten dered a banquet by the San Joaquin Valley Medical Society. and an exceed ingly pleasant evening was enjoyed with these gentleman as hosts. Dr. MacMonagle responded to the toast After the War" He said he was still in the ring, though somewhat dam aged"

the acting ships eight or ten miles out in the waters of the gulf, and they have usually returned early next morning. Last night for the first time two cruis- CTS were assigned instead of one. This morning the Marblehead returned as usual, but not the Cincinnati. which had not been sighted up to nightfall.
 Inquiry developed the fact that a message was signaled to her from the flagship early this morning. It's import has not been ascertained on shore, but the answer was waved back, Still nine miles out. Will follow orders.'' What these orders were are known only to the commanding officers (. the fleet and the Cincinnati. The Cincinnati was most likely sent further out to gain greater command of the entrance to these waters from the Cuban side. This was the first occasion when the guard was kept on duty all night and the fol- lowing day.

ABUSING AN EDUCATION.
The Neglect of Self Culture Is a Ruinous Wastefulness of
 Adyantapes

In thoughtful paper on "A Waste of Education in the March Woman's S Home Companion, Brand Burner Hud- dleston speaks of the tendency of wo- men to permit their talents to rust out:
 Mental culture may be the most costly or the most valuable gift of par ents to their children, just as they care of 1t after they get it. It is certain that few would equally neglect a material property of like monetary cost as they often do their educations. This, too, when money is the very shortest tape line by which a mental gift may be measured. Perhaps it is due in part to the mistaken idea that when we have quilted the schoolroom we carry with US stationary fund of knowledge that will or ought to be sufficient for our future.
 Look at the piles of hard dollars and the illimitable hours of time spent ev- cry year in the study and practice of music alone; except for the good they are to teachers and to the makers of musical instruments, the half might as well be wiped out of existence at one clean sweep. A decent little eternity might be made out of the time. And this continues to exist and repeat it. self generation after generation in the very lace Ol tIie ldCl tudl iS incomparable addition to home life, and on that account, if for no more lofty or selfish reason, ought to be perfected and never neglected by women.
 How many of your women friends will undertake to entertain even the family circle with creditable per | formance? Usually their pianos stand | idle from the period immediately sue. ceeding their marriage until there art daughters old enough to be put at les sons; then the old folly will be re. | peated. What folly? Not the plac | ing of children to study music or any other accomplishment that is for theil good or that the purse will permit Let them have all the advantage! within reach, but also teach them ap preciation; the folly consists in foster | ing through example, and by taci 1 acceptance of the existing state O l things, the idea that it can be othel than a sinful waste of time to acquire a good thing and thec? neglect it. N | one has any business to learn thing | that is not worth remembering. It il | foolish from merely utilitarian poin of view Thus it may not be possible 1 or desirable for every mother to teacl her own children, though some coun | it a sweet privilege to do so, yet i pays them to keep thoroughly posted if only to judge of the quality of Worl being done by the teacher. and to sup
 ply that home co-operation which |
 so needful to the conscientious studen and the teacher"

LITTLE EAST SIDE PAGANs.
They Gamble and Know Less About Religion Than Young Pata-
 gonianS.

Magistrate Meade, in the Essex Market Court yesterday, applied the usual test to determine the knowledge of youthful witnesses as to the nature of an oath, with results which astonished him. He was called upon to apply the test by Lawyer Mandelbaum counsel for Bernard Raeder, proprietor of candy store at 77 Lewis street, who was arraigned on the charge of maintaining gambling resort in the rear of the candy store. Agents Agnew and Moore of the Gerry Society raided the store late on Friday night and found eight boys sitting around two tables playing casino. There was a pile of pennies in the center of the tables and packages of chewing gum and candy in front of the boys. The boys explained at the time that they were playing three-cent game and that two cents went into the "kltty" at the con clusion of the game. The kitty" they agents arrested Raeder and the boy card players. The ages of the boys ranged from 10 to fl years.
 When the case was called Tn the PoEce Court yesterday Agents Moore and Az new declared that they had witnessed no playing, but offered the boys as witnesses against Raeder. The first boy called be- gan to explain the alleged gambling. MT does not know he nature of an oath.

FRESNO, April 20.-The second days session of the State Medical Society was jailed to order by IF. Bard, the president, at 0 o'clock this morning. The attendance was increased over that of Tuesday S session by the arrival of about thirty doctors from San Fran cisco. Some twenty of these gentlemen were the guests of Pr. Winslow Ander- son. Prominent in the list of those who arrived last night were Drs. Rev. erley Cole, Winslow Anderso.. Farrell, Won Hoffman w. E. Hopkins, Ford and Adams.

Noticeable among the papers and or 3tior5 discussed were the following: Brain Surgery" by Dr. D. D. Crowley of Oakland, the discus sion being opened by Dr. BI -lnard of Los Angeles; "Strang"llated Hernia, or Report f Ten Cases" by Dr. Emmet Rixford of San Francisco: Where the Leg Should Be Amputated," by J.

Special Dispatch to The Call.

SEATTLE, April 20-The steamship Humboldt brings the official list of the dead recovered from the Chilkoot Pass snow slide of April 3. A number of new names appear on the list. They are:
 William Carroll. San Francisco.
 A. O. Anderson, San Francisco.
 Mark Welsh, Butte, Mont.
 Henry Yearger, Los Angeles.
 Jeff Sailing, Weiser, Idaho
 John Vogle, Los Angeles.
 Curtiss c. Turner, Omaha, Nebr.
 Albridge D. Bissell, Palarine, III.
 Thomas J. Wall, Hazel, s. Dak.
 Albridge D. Bissell is undoubtedly the A. A. Bissell mentioned in the first list as being a resident of Seattle. VII liam Carroll of San Francisco is prob- ably the correct name for w Carl of California, as given in the earlier lists.
 The only additions to the list of Se- attle dead are the names of Chris John son and Oscar Johnson. Several Seattle people whose names were in the first list of dead sent out do not appear on the late list. Among them are Ed Cook. George Overton, c. R. Homer, Con Riser, Weed Garrison and A. Chap pell. Some of these have been heard from and all are believed to be alive.
 Some of the bodies are still held at Sheep Camp awaiting instructions from friends or relatives in the States. Oth- CTS have been buried near the scene of the terrible disaster. In the new ceme- tery, provided by Colonel Anderson and the Federal troops, a number of mounds show where others have found their last resting place. A number of bodies have been brought to Seattle on the steamers and turned over to rela- tives or friends.
 Purser Twiggs says that on Friday night last the work of digging into the pile that lies across the trah and marks the site of the crowning dis aster of the most remarkable rush for gold the world has eyer seen had stopped Travel has been resumed, and no more bodies are likely to be recov- cred until the sun melts away the huge pile of snow that it is believed covers the remains of possibly a dozen more victims
