there are regions to which diseases
nave never reached, for instance. on
The SUBMITS of high mountain ranges

A WOMAN LAWYER.
Miss Alice Serber. Russian by Birth, Ad-
Initted to tho bar in New York City.

Miss Alice Scrbcr. "a Russian by Birth, Adj
mitted tothe Bar in New York City.
Under our liberal laws American and
English, German and Canadian. Scan
dinavian and Swiss woman have be-
ZONE lawyers, and this week the list
of nationalities was increased by Miss
Alice Serber, Il Russian by birth, who
was admitted to the bar in New York
city. ..
She Is graduate of the New York
University, and announces her deter
mination OF studying medicine SO as to
make Il Speciality Of medico-legal jur-
isprudence. If she succeeds she will be
the first woman in history to enter that
very difficult branch OF the profession.
1t is only of late years that it has
been possible for women to pursue
medico-leEal studies. Even after they
were allowed to practice medicine it
was several years before the doors of
tile courts were opened to them, and
even then the practical difficulties were
SO many as to prevent any of them
from making that departure. Not
that there has been any very great dis
elimination in the matter, because it
has been almost as difficult for men.
The standards Of the professions have
been raised SO high that student
must have thorough primary and
secondary education before he can en-
ter college. which is we'll nigh impos-
sible before the age of sixteen The
modern college course is four years !;
the course in medical schools is now
four years, and in the leading law
schools is three years This means
eleven years of study, involving large

rated by colored man who swore
that he saw the prisoner in the act OF

Colored Republicans Have Had Sur

There seems to be no longer a doubt
that leading colored Republicans Of
this county have resolved to enter next
years political contest with g. straight
ticket Of their own. This information
comes to the correspondent of the Daily
Press from man whose word may be
fully relied upon. Dissatisfaction has
been breeding In the ranks of the COLI
ored wing Of the Republican party for
many months. 1t is claimed that the
Mckinley administration has not dealt
fairly with the negroes in Virginia. and
for this reason they deem it the part
Of wisdom to act Independently Of the
regular Republican organization.
We have been fed on promises until
we are sick and tired OF thsm," said a
prominent colored politician to the
writer. I'VE have had all we want OF

to make ourselves offensive, but we dc
intend to take our own course here
after. Our people have been tools in

don't expect to, but neither do we ex.
