LIE OROu1uS MCOCAu5 VI L1S AOu dA-
nual session of the Wisconsin State
Eclectic Medical society was public
meeting held in the senate chamber
last evening. There was but small
audience present, the reason for
this being the fact that a Madison
paper had mistakenly announced the
meeting for a week later The pro-
gram though not as complete as had
been outlined, was nevertheless a good
one and interesting. An overture by
Bach's mandolin and guitar quintet
was the first feature of the program
and was warmly applauded. This was
followed by a violin solo with piano
accompaniment by Misses Alice and
Hazel Afford. It was a fine piece and
it's rendition credit to the young
performers. An address by Mayor
Hoven followed, in which the mayor
did the handsome thing, extending to
the visitors to Madison hearty well
come. This was responded to on be-
half of the society by DR.. Roedecker
of Wonewoc in genial and
happily turned phrases. A pleas
ing vocal duet was then given
by Misses Buell. and Clark. Prof A.
w. Strong of Chicago followed with
an exceptionally strong and interest
ing paper on The Medical Expert. A
piano solo by Charles Bolender was
the next feature. Another entertain
ing and very helpful paper was that
of Prof. R. l.. Thomas of Cincinnati,
his subject being Eclecticism. vo-
cal solo by DR.. Rossen followed and
was given generous applause. The
closing feature was a selection by
Bach's quintet, which was vigorously
cheered, ard an encore was given.
