APPOINTMENT REVOKED.
DR.. II. w. Freeman Not Eligible to
Position Of Medical Inspector,

Acting upon the recommendation Of
Health Officer Woodward, the District Com
missioners have revoked the appointment
of DR.. Henry w. Freeman, jr., as one Of
the colored medical inspectors Of schools
for the reason, it is stated, that the physi-
clan has not as yet had five years expert
ence in the practice of medicine in this
District DR.. Freeman was notified when
he entered his examination that he could
not be appointed until he had completed
his five years residence next year. His
recommendation for appointment, DR..
Woodward says, was an oversight.
The law governing the appointment of
medical inspectors stipulates that four of
the twelve shall be colored physicians.
There is now no colored physicians on the
eligible list, so if one is to be appointed an
other examination will have to be held. DR..
Woodward communication in regard to
the matter is as follows:
IAN examination of the application of DR..
Henry W. Freeman, jr., for appointment
medical inspector of public schools having
shown that his experience In the practice of
medicine in this District dates only from
May 8. 1899, and that he is, therefore, not
eligible for appointment under the law pro-
viding for such inspection, l beg to with
draw my recommendation of the 21st in
stant for DR.. Freemans appointment to
the position named.
DIR. Freeman was permitted to enter the
examination. which was held because of
the fact that persons passing that examina
ton were to be eligible for appointment
within period of one year from the date
of the official report of the United States
civil service commission. and because DIR.
Freeman will have had the necessary five
years experience within that time.
He was duly notified when he was au-
thoriZed to enter the examination that
even though he should successfully pass
he would not be eligible for appointment
M ia or
his appointment was due to an oversight
on the part of this department incident to
the rather hurried organization of this new
service"

The conflicting stories that have been
going the rounds OF the press recently
regarding the relations of Deer Isle sailors
10 cup defenders have made so mucn talk
in yachting circles that it is refreshing
10 hear something direct from headqusr-
ters.

tatively on the topic 1t is Capt. +. p.
Weed, Of Stoningtop, who not onl,
knows every sailor on the island by name,
out is also largely responsible for many OF
he crews that In late years have been
selected not only for cup defenders blu,
also for other responsible positions in the
yachting world.
CAPT. WEED SPEAKS.
In recent interview Capt. Weed said !:
"rhe Deer Isle boys have been very sue
cessful 10 yachting, and the credit for
their success, apart from their own nativ,
soiiity, is largely due to G Oliver Istein,
Capt. Hank Half and Capt. Charles Barr
ruese gentlemen gave them the best
training that yachtsmen could have. Our
boys who have sailed in cup defenders
always received the best of treatment H.
every respect, aud everyone Of them are
more than pleased.
"Neariy all of the former crews are nov
masters or mates OF yachts and merchant
vessels. Seven OF them are masters of
yachts on the lakes, aud some forty oil
hem are masters of steam aud sail yacht
on the Atlantic coast
"NearIy all of our men are engaged In

Of shipping a crew OF Deer Isle boys for
