At the quarterly meeting on the 5th
of December, at Cheyenne, of the state
board of medical examiners, the board
will begin the preparation of its re
port to Governor Brooks and the state
legislature. The secretary, DR.. S. B
Miller of this city, has already begun
the collection of data to be used in the
document. The board is not required
to make report to the governor, but
matters of Importance demanding the
attention of the executive and legisla-
tive branches have arisen and the
members of the board say they cannot
in a better way reach these officials
than by a printed report, a copy of
which will be handed to each legislator.
Threatening the Law.
DR.. Miller, in discussing the work
of the board today, stated that he had
received numberless letters from all
over the country threatening the board
that the Wyoming legislature this win

physicians of whatever sort to prac-
tice what and where they please in
the state. That, as you must see, is

Effective Board Methods.

The methods of the board are unique
as well as effective. MANY instances
have been noted of men coming to the
state and going to out of the way
places, thinking to avoid the county
attorneys. They have found them
selves mistaken in this. Every physi-
clan in the state is registered, and the
moment n of these charlatans shows
up he is turned over to the secretary,
who in turn notifies the county attor-
ney. 1t is impossible to hide. The
physicians are protecting their own in
terests as well as those of the state,
and there is no deception practiced.
Many of the complaints reaching the
board are of patent medicine outfits,
who invade the state with an amuse-
ment feature, giving free entertain
ments in halls or in the open M then
selling their stuff on the strength of
the enthusiasm aroused. These have
had to CO."

An Austrian engineer. Herr Balder.

mountains near SaIzburg with a novel
balloon railway. 1T consists IF a
large captive balloon attached to a
single rail- which, in turn, is fixed
firmly to the side Of a steep noun
tain. whose preciptious slopes no oTh-
Ell form of railway could climb with
out making a series of serpentine
detoWS and passing through tunnels.
Under the balloon is a circular car,
seating ten persons. The wire cable
from the balloon passes through the
floor Of the car to a speed regulator
underneath, which is controlled by the
engineer.
The balloon remains balanced in the
air about ten yards above the rail to
which it is attached by a stout wire
cable, and it is moved up and down
the side of the mountain at the will
of the engineer. For an ascent the
balloon itself furnishes the lifting
force by means Of hydogen; for the
descent a large reservoir attached to
the balloon is filled with water at the
highest station and serves as ballast
