COOKING OF HARD-BOILED EGGS
Homeopathic Physicians Hold Vary
ing Views-The Officers.


The last paper read at the closing meet
ing Of the Indiana institute of Homoeopa-
thy at the Denison Hotel yesterday after
noon on Clinical Medicine" caused quite
an argument among the doctors present.
and SKINNED milk, hard-boiled eggs and
plain water entered into the discussion.
The milk was said TO be the only cure for
constipation and the question of drinking
hot or cold water caused a pleasant cross
exchange of argument. Some of the physi-
clans believed in warm water. while others
said that warm water was not lit for a per-
sons stomach, as it would act on the stom-
ach the same as a hot bath would act on a
man-make the stomach lazy so that IL
would not perform its usual functions. The
digestibility of hard-boiled eggs also caused
a discussion. several of the physicians
claiming that eggs boiled seven or eight
minutes were as easy TO digest as a poached
egg. but before lne discussion ended the
r rem 6 ID a ,ea periaa a OF t esS h ~ POLITE The p T1ssr
clan who claimed the egg should be boiled
two hours said the yolk would then be
mealy and easily digested.

GAVE TWENTY-FIVE NUMBERS
Remarkable Performance of Herr
Observation-Disclosures Concerts.

Mr.. Joseph S. Baernstein. the eminent
basso who scored two conspicuous triumphs
during the past season as soloist of con-
certs given by the Amphion Club, appeared
in an independent song recital in the Pro-
pylaeum last evening before an audience
OF fair size. Mr.. Baernstein sang superbly
last night. and in addition completely won
his audience by his charming personality,
Sc that each fresh appearance on the
rostrum was the occasion for friendly
applause. Demands for encores came with
such frequence that the singer was forced
TO beg his auditors to desist. pleading
that the programme as arranged contained
more songs than any vocalist ought to at
tempt in a single evening.
Possibly, IL the audience had reflected
that Mr.. Baernstein came directly from
the music festival at Bethlehem, Pa, where
his voice must have been severely taxed,
1t would have perceived that his under
aking TO render twenty-five numbers in
one recital was a really remarkable feat,
and certainly all that reasonable folks
ought TO expect. The programme took a
wide range, including classics like the song
OF the blacksmith from Gounod's ''Phile-
mon ct Baucis," the song of Hans Sachs
from Wagner's 'Meistersinger,' the song
e. the d from M masieT: d Ann . g Roam and
Stranger" the suite of Schuber songs,
Rolling in Foaming Billows," from Hay
dn's Creation" Mephistophe!es's serenade
from Berliozs "Damnation of Faust" the
why DO the Nations so Furiously Rage"
from Handel's Messiah" and such dainty
love ballads as stenhammer.s Loves
Rosary" Van Der Stucken's The Sweet
est Flower that Blows" Tostis could T.
Hatton's Ito Anthea," and HayneS's THE
Ould Plaid Shawl" In addition Mr.. Baern-
stein gave several comical songs that
pleased greatly. among them being Fish
er's delicious "FalstaffS Song with It's
mortuary truisms. Slater's Tragic Tale"
OF the Chinese philosopher and his vexa-
tious queue. and Haynes's sparkling "On
to Philadelphia" ditty. To each OF these
widely divergent selections the deep. SYM

Since the decision of the Supreme Court
confirming the judgment of the lower court
in the Higgins case ii has been suggested
that the mayor should call a special cleo
ton TO fill Higgins's unexpired term as a
member of the City Council. Under the law
there is apparently no question that Hig-
glnsS seat in the Council became vacated
when he was convicted OF a felony. There
are some, however, who are objecting to
holding a special election because of the
useless expense il would involve. Mayor
Taggart said yesterday that he had not
arrived at any decision in the matter and
would not be ready to say what he intended
70 do before next week. He intends to con-
suit the city attorney before proceeding in
the matter
