NOT AFRAID TO AD-
YER TISE.
A Noted Doctor Who VIII Not
q Hide His Light.
(Albany Herald, June 26. }

DIR. Darrin has been at the Revere,
house for the past two months as a
specialist. During his visit here
the doctor has been the most talked:
Of professional man whoever visit
ed our city. This has been largely
the result ofsthe fact that, while he
is regular physician, and grad
uate of the most reputable schools,
he has dropped that Of professional
ethics which dictate that a regular
phys; clan shall not advertise his
skill to the world, and thus give
The masses an opportunity to get
the benefit of his superior ability.
There seems to be more and more
professio aai men in this enlighten-
ed age who refuse to hide their light
under a bushel, all on account of
false idea that If they make their
talents known to the world by use
of printers ink they must lose their
standing in their chosen profession.
DR.. Darrin is good example. of
what q free thinking, Independent;
American citizen can do
if he will not be a slave to code.
of ethics that is largely dictated
by narrow sel6shness.., He has ad-
vertised his skill for years, after.

New York, London, Paris and 9th

secret that he has made money very.
freely. This need not argue that
be has not given value received, as
far asit canbe done by any skilled
physician. This money, which is
the result of his skill in medicine
as well as advertising, he turns to
good uses.
He spends fortunes, in travel,
having made the tour of the world,
and visited all the countries of in
terest on the map. This travel has
probably enabled him to learn much
in professional way, but at all e.
vents he has had the enjoyment Of
it, and paid for it with his own
money. -
During his stay in Salem and AL
bany he has effected many cures, or
at least the voluntary statement of
his patients published in all the
papers so indicate. These persons
are known to the public, and the
fact that their statements are pub
lished in the papers gives an oppor-
tunity to investigate the cases for
themselves. One case where a
young man states that his hearing
has been restored from deafness, af. 4
ter having spent hundreds of dol
lars with regular professional spe-
cialists in that line, ought to COM
mand theattention of the public and
it is such facts as these that make
it possible for DR.. Darrin to have
the large practice that he does. Is
1t wrong TO advertise such results,
and give others similarly situated
to get like benefit? When this
question is honestly answered it
must be admitted that such work
is not only legitimate, but of the
highest character. It is useless for
SO called regular doctors to cry
down such work or try to legislate
such men out of a profession, and
every attempt at the latter will on
ly result in failure. The truth is
the public needs the best skill that
all the doctors can muster, and
ought not to be deprived of it by
silly code of ethics.

Portland, August the f-Seyen
TONS weight Of shrieking humanity
dropped from the eastern end Of the
Morrison-street bridge into the Will
lamette, at five minutes before 8
O'clock yesterday afternoon.
Two persons and it is feared, sew.
eral Others, were drowned. Az least
so were more or less injured, "a few
perhaps fatally, ~ ID
Without warning a rotten 5x12
inch timber broke short off at the
point where the bridge walk adioins
the roadway. 1t was the central
support Of 40 feet of the walk on
which were crowded fully 40 peo-,
pie. largely women and children.
Thesbreak occurred on the south
side of the bridge, opposite the Port
land Rowing Clubhouse.
A great throng had assembled to
see Professor" Lutz. the ''armless
wonder" swim the river from Kel-
logg's boathouse to the Rowing
Clubs float. From end to end the
Morrison-street bridge was crowded
with sp ctators. As the swimmer
neared his destination, surrounded
by feet of launches and row boats
the crowd naturally surged toward
the eastern end of the bridge to see
the finish. No such numbers were
assembled, however, as to cause
danger, had the bridge been sound.
Lutz was about so feet from the
float, swimming easilv in the midst
of the swarm CT small craft. The
antics OF four sportive Italians in q
skif had diverted the attention of
the crowd. This joyous quartet had
just given a burlesque exhibition OF
rowboat upsetting, in front OF the
boat house. when a scream was
heard from the bridge.
An Greg anian reporter on the We
randall of the boathouse turned 10
time to have a full view of the ca
tastrophe, not 40 feet away. The
people seemed to drop in lump, as
load of coal is dumped into GEL
lar. The fall from the top of the
walk to the surface ofthe water was
about 20 feet. It was broken by
two scows. or snail, floating boat
houses, directly underneath. With
q fearful crash the section o. walk
and its screaming, scrambling load
of men. women and children,
smashed through the roof of these.
The walk seemed to fall squarsly,
thus preventing people from being
crushed underneath. A few people
clipped off the western end Of the
fallen walk into the river, but we're
quickly dragged out. A lot more
were tumbled in a heap on top of
the debris aboard both floats, but
fully one-third plunged in bunch
between the floats, which were sep.
arated by about FIVE feet Of water.
That so many people could have
fallen into such a space without
stunning or thrusting number of
those underneath deep into the wa
ter, so that in rising they would be
caught under the floats, seemed in
credible, though for time is was
thought no one was drowned. The
river here is about 20 fest deep. A
