Knickerbacker Hall

This institution is one in which leading
citizens of indianapolis take much pride. 1t
is an old established high-class school for
girls and young women. In 1897 the school
came under the management of the Misses
Yerkes. Miss Mary Helen Yerkes is the
resident principal and gives her personal
supervision to the work of the school Miss
Yerkes is at this time travelling in Europe,

September
The buildings are most favorably located
on Central avenue, in one of the most beau
tiful residence portions of the capital city.
They are spacious and modern, and are sur
rounded by large, attractive grounds, giving
space. such as can rarely be found in a city
school, for recreation and athletic sports.
There could hardly be better situation as
regards health and comfort. The school was
named for the late Bishop knickerbacker.
In 1901 a three-story brick addition was
erected, containing classroorns, practice
rooms, gymnasium, laboratory and studio.
So rapid has been the growth of this insti-
tuition that last September the school ac-
quired the large brick house south of the
school premises, and this building provides

opportunities for the study of mental and
nervous diseases. Each student before

work in obstetrics, and the college main
tans an outdoor obstetrical department in
connection with the college dispensary, and
in addition has the exclusive privilege of
permitting its students to attend the de-
livcries al the only free maternity hospital

the demands of the profession from year
to year for more thorough instruction by
extending its curriculum, building extern

requirements, and has been gratified by the
evidence of professional approval as shown
by the constantly increasing size of its
classes.

Indiana Law School.

The Indiana Law School was organized
for the purpose of giving to the law stu
dents of the middle West an opportunity TO
acquire a more thorough and systematic
knowledge of the law than has heretofore
been afforded them by any institution with
in easy reach of their homes, and especially
to give to those young men who contem-
plate the practice of law in Indiana the
same facilities and advantages which are
to be found in the Oldest schools of law.
From the date of foundation. 1894, to the
year 1859 the school was practically lee
ture school, conducted almost solely
upon the lecture basis. In the latter year,
under the direction of Professor Rohbach,
who had been called to the faculty, the
course Of study was modified and enlarged,
the methods of instruction were changed
and the school conducted upon the basis of
the case and textbook systems The hours
for recitation were placed in the forenoon,
and the two early hours were given to the
junior and the two later hours to the senior
class. The afternoons were set apart for
moot courts, lectures by special lecturers,
and for the investigation of cases.
The school, under this reorganization of
it's course OF, study and methods of instruc-
ton, is now pursuing the same methods and
is founded upon the same system of in
struction as is followed in the law schools
of Harvard, Columbia, Cornell, Michigan
and other leading institutions. These
changes have resulted in an increased repu-
tation for the school, not only among the
members of the profession and the law stu
dents of the State, but also with the oldest
and largest law schools.
The course of study covers a period of
two years of thirty weeks each, exclusive
of vacations, and the two classes have
separate and distinct instruction through
out the course.
The faculH is composed of James A Rob-
bach, A. NJ, LII. B., dean; Henry NJ. Dowl-
ing, A. B., LII. B.. James NJ. Ogden. Phi. b..

in 1898. DR.. Johnston located in California
after graduating and established lucrative
practice and made investments In oil landS,
which returned him neat fortune, and ne
later invested in profitable mining stocks.
He is now the president or the GRO Cop1a
Mining and Milling Company. and gives TO
the college enough OF this stock 10 realize
to the institution the amount OF So0,eu.
Particulars regarding this stock can be
had by application to DR.. L. c. Bedford,
who has visited and examined the mines.
This stock could not be purchased except
in connection with this enterprise of the
new college building. The new building
will afford additional lecture rooms and
hospital wards, whereby the students will
have the advantage of seeing the treatment
and operations in emergency cases, as well
as those patients who are carefully pre-
pared for the operation to be performed.
The new building is expected to be ready
for occupancy by the 18th of next Decem-
Der.
A thorough knowledge of anatomy, physi-
ology, histology, pathology, physical dag
noss and bacterioiogy is necessary as
basis for correct system of phySlo-me6tlcal
practice On Saturday of each week there
is lecture given by one teacher on some
subject in clinical medicine, and as far
as possible the clinical lectures are Illus
trated by cases from the dispensary, thus
making of practical value the instruction
of the week. The Physiological Free Dis
pensary is conducted in the college building,
and furnishes an abundance and variety OF
clinical material in the departments of gen.
eaV nose, throat, skin, nerves, genito-
urinary organs and diseases of women.
These cases are examined, diagnosed and
treated according to physio-medical prin-
ciples by various members of the faculty.
Senior students have the opportunity of ex-
amining. prescribing for and treating cases
under the supervision OF the superintend-
ent and faculty. The dispensary will be
better equipped than ever when the new
building is completed.
In this connection it is proper to call at
tentiOn to the fact that more than $4,000
shares of Orc Copa mining stock has been
sold for the benefit of the Physio-Medical
College, and persons who wish to secure
stock should apply at once as 1t will not
likely be on the market thirty days from
this time. Neither DIR. Johnston nor the
Orc iCopia Mining and Milling Company
have anything to do with the funds real
lied from the sale of this stock. Persons
securing the stock will not only benefit the
institution, but secure an investment that
will be profitable. Only the amount neces-
sary to produce the 5000 will be placed on
the market, all the stock, except that
sold by DIR. Johnston, is held by seven gen.
temen of large means.
Persons desiring particulars regarding the
PhytioM Medical College, or concerning the
stock of the Orc Copia Mining and Milling
Company, should address DR.. c. n. Har-
old, president, or DIR. G. T. Bedford, secre-
tary and treasurer

Within the city and afford unusual oppor-

1885, which resulted in the organization of
the University of indianapolis. 1t is hoped,
III the near future, to purchase suitable
!. grounds for the Capitalization of the four
&schoois now connected with the university
Until this is done the four schools, with an
enrolment of more than 1000 students, will
prosecute their work in their present loca-
lions. When the university is properly
housed in central location it is expected
other departments may be added, such as
music, pharmacy, art. technology, engineer
ing and pedagogy. The educational facili-
ties now so well started are destined to
reach much larger proportions as Indian
apolis increases its population.
With the opening of the Indianapolis
Technical Institute we will have added to
our already excellent facilities another
feature which will make us no mean city

nal takes pride in showing up the special
merits Of the individual schools and colleges
Such facts as we furnish will certainly in

have been in the past. to do part to ad-

University.

The Indianapolis Business University is
the Oldest and largest institution of its
kind in the State. Established fifty-three
years ago, it points with pride to the thir-
ty-fve thousand students who have gone
to the highest positions in the business and
professional world. The Indianapolis bust
ness men cannot get its graduates fast
enough. This is easily explained The
men who were educated in the school in
the early days are the employers of to-day,
and naturally give preference to those who
have received the same careful training
that they received. Now is a good time TO
enroll, and as soon as students graduate
good positions waiting them. The
