TRAVELLING MEDICAL SCHOOLS.
German Specialist. plan to 1,est.,.
In the Country Dlstricts for Al ),
.vnncement of profession.

The country medical practitioner In
Germany is to have an opportunity
to learn the latest Developments in
surgery and general medicine from .
travelling university that will bring
postgraduate instruction to the near.
est large town in his vicinity free Of
charge. Emperor William gave his
signature Monday to the plans for
this work, which will be paid for by
the government and by small contri.
buttons from medical societies.
Great specialists, such as Profs.
Lassar, Bergman and Rumpf. win
charge small fees for their services.
Prof. Lassar already has contributed
1000 specimens of skin diseases to the
museum which will be carried from
place to place with laboratory appli-
ances. The country doctor can thus
come to his neighboring city for q
week or two once a year and hear
the leaders of his profession explain
the latest processes for treatment or
see celebrated surgeons operate.
The idea of the travelling university
appears to have originated with tho
late Emperor Frederick, who used TO
talk to Prof. Renvers about it. Tho
Bavarian government already has
made limited use Of the suggestion.

5ou are willing to help me recover
the stock stolen from me, which can
be done for say 100000 at the out
side, will share it jointly with you.
BY liberal expenditure we can OBJ
tain practically complete possession.
II seems to me that it is to your in
terest to ally yourself with me. It
may be necessafNE do some fighting
in the courts, and 10 meet the con-
spirators at every point will require
money. If you will agree to let me
draw on you to the extent of 500, 900,
as occasion requires, I, on my part,
will agree to this: That within six
months we shall have exclusive pos
session, or if I faH by that time you
can have the equivalent of the $780,
COO advanced out of my stock"
Merivale replied promptly:
II would like to close this business
up as soon as possible. My mining
resources are all lying idle, and am
losing money every day. thereby. I
cannot wait six months. Make it
three months and state your agree
ment in writing, and / will see you
about it."
Franklin then wrote:
II accept your amendment, and
hereby obligate myself within three
months to secure possession of the
tract in county, Colorado, for
you and myself jointly, or, on failure
to do SO, to remunerate you out of
my stock OF condition that you will
honor my drafts to the extent of
s100, 000."
Meriyale answered laconically:
1T is go. Draw away"
This letter from Franklin to Meri-
vale may be interesting:
"Send check for $1,000 to Thomas
Morris, Yokohama, Japan. This is
for stock purchased through him.
Charge the amount to my account"
just before Fenton left Colorado
for Nilus he induced Meriyale to
write this letter to Franklin:
ut seems to me that if your stock
was stolen from you, the proper way
would be to steal 1t back. Can't you
find anyone with nerve enough down
your way to do it? The three months
having expired, shall come to Nilus
to settle matters at issue between US.
If by the time get there you have,
by hook or crook, got possession OF
the stock, all right. If not, must
have the 100000 worth of stock"

J1NGo BEGINS TRAVELS.
United States Finally Enticed In
big Cage at London.

The huge African elephant, lingo.
purchased from the zoo at London
for shipment to the United States
on the steamship Georgia was finally
enticed into his travelling cage. All
OF the day before he refused to be
tempted into the cage by food placed
therein, but hunger at last mastered
him.
lingo is 90 inches taller than the
celebrated Jumbo, and was sold by
the authorities of the London ZOO
because he was believed to have
reached the age when African ele-
plants become dangerous.
It was for the same reason that
Jumbo was sold, but in his case the
fear proved to be groundless. The
purchaser is reported to have said
that he would refuse 100000 for
lingo.
