There is much joy in the ranks of women doctors and students in England at the decision of the Royal College or Surgeons to open it's door to women. The Royal College ot Physicians recent ly came to a similar decision, and be- fore long, when the necessary regula- tions have been made 1t will be open to women to take the degree of M. R. c. S." and "L R. c. P.." while they will also be able to attain the higher degree Of Fellow The London Ex- press quotes a woman physician on the new order of things; "So far as I am aware. every other body in the British Isles which gives medical degrees has already admitted women. Although the College of Physicians and the College of Surgeons have refused us admission, women have been able to take their degrees elsewhere and to practice as surgeons or physicians without troubl- ing about these bodies. But women felt that 1t was unjust that they should be held at arms length by these col Ieges, as a good deal of respect is paid to their degrees. and we are very pleased that the colleges have at last given way"

An auentIona Answered.

Youths Companion. In a book store in Georgia stands a glass tank filled with water, in which there is a single goldfish. Hanging on the outside of the tank is a placard, which contains the following answers to question which the proprietor of the shop had got tired of replying to by word oof mouth:
 This is a goldfish. It is alive.
 There Is only one of it We got 1t from a boy.
 We do not know where the boy got it. ! It has never died. | We feed it whenever we want to.
 It eats what we give 1t. That Is water it Is In. We get the water out of a we'll We do moot know how old if is

 We do not miss the water it drinks. We do not know how large 1t will grow. We can catch it. but do not want to-

The Bengal tiger was conquered. Japhet knelt down and kissed his hand. The general drew him close and the founding wept on his fathers breast at last.
 Old Bengal tigers are not conquered in A moment There were many bat ties between the royal old beast and his young tanner. But gradually the general became tractable. First ne learned to be proud of his boy ano such Is the contrariness of man. proud CT for his adventures as make be- iieve gentleman than he was of him for his honest career In quaker gatO as an apothecary.
 From pride his feelings gradually changed to affection, and though 1t re- auired great diplomacy to make b'm agree to Japhet's marriage with . Quaker he consented even 10 that The Bengal tiger was thoroughly tamo at last.
 The quiet. prim little Quaker girl had not viewed Japhet'g return to the fashionable world with satisfaction. Her fine eyes looked disapproval on, him. When he departed m response to the advertisement. she aad said;
 "Japhet Newlands, I will rejoice at everything that may tend to thy hap- | piness, believe me: but I do not feel | assured but that this trial may ptoNs too great and that thou mayst fall away from the right patn, which thou hast so lately entered. Indeed, I per- ceive that even now thou art excited with new ideas and visions of pride" ] Japhet thought of this remark or the little gray dove and smiled one, night when Mrs. Susannah came down the grand staircase of the grand house in which they lived with the general and asked:
 "Is not this a pretty dress?'
 "Yes, my dear" replied her husband, but, Susan, do you not think 1t is cut a little too low?"
 "Too low? Why. De Benyon. it's not half as low as your great friends. Lady de Clare and her daughter. wear their dresses. Indeed. I think should know. for if l have no other merit, l have at least the merit of being the best dressed woman in London"

 Though Marryat departed from the field peculiarly his own, he succeeded so well with his readers that while the story was running serially an ,Ameri- can vessel signaled to a British one in midAtlantic: Has Japhet found his father yet?"

WASHINGTON, March 26.-Iier-
bert Knox Smith, commissioner OF
corporations, has reported to the
president that there is no effective
method of preventing gambling on
margins and options and other stock
gambling devices, except by taxation.
A plan is now being devised to rec

alton that will make stock gambling
difficult, but it is frankly acknow-
lodged by high administration Off
Gals that they are disappointed in
not being able to find warrant for a

THE COPPER SITUATION.

The United States Investor prints
an exceedingly bearish view OF the
copper situation, not at all applicable
to the real conditions extant At this
time. Among other assertions is one
that the producers are holding for a
rs cent market. The producers are
doing nothing of the kind. They want
copper to fix around16 or IT cents,
fair price for everybody, and stay
there. That was their wish when
the market got away from them two
years ago and advanced to the top
figure. The big producers at that
time endeavored to check the ad-
vance and looked upon 1t as bad bust
ness, view that has since been con-
frmed. That their attitude was such
is not taken from heresay by the
writer but from personal declarations
from copper producers at that time.
The Investor errs in its review Of
the present situation in another mat
ter. that of the gloom 1t attaches to
Calumet & Hecla dividend reductions
and failure of Amalgamated resump-
ton to make all the stir that same eX-
pected. Because these companies are
not making money enough to keep
dividends at the high standard OF last
year on a metal market which has
been cut in two takes nothing from
the value of those copper stocks
which are earning good money on 13
cent copper. Neither is 1T apparent
been made in its dividend which is
that there is any kick coming on c. &
H. because of reduction that has
been made in its dividends, which is
still pretty fair one. High pay
ments in the previous two years. also
need to be taken into account. AS
for the Investors general attack on
copper shares. such performers as
Utah Copper and such as Cumber-
land Ely and Nevada Consolidated
soon VIII be, surely ought to be ex-
pected, inasmuch as cent copper
will allow them a margin of profit.
