MEDICAL PROFESSION
BADLY OVERCROWDED
Not by Survival Of the Fittest but by
Survival Of the Unfittest.

Chicago, Feb. 27.--"The medical
profession is overcrowded but is not
oyercrowded by the survival of the fit
test, but by the survival of the unfit"
This statement was made today by
Alexander Hugh Ferguson, president
of the Chicago Medical society, in an
address of welcome to members of
the American Medical colleges who
began three days meeting today.
with a population of about 10000
600 in North America, we have at
least 10000 persons who are legally
licensed to practice medicine" con.
tinued DR.. Ferguson. This is about
one to every 800 inhabitants. In Eng
land the proportion is one to 1850;
in France one to 2,175, and in other
countries the proportion is still more
favorable to the medical profession.
To sum it up, we don't need more doc
tors, but we do need better brand.
1T is my deliberate opinion that
this evil, which Is due to a large num-
Der of irresponsible medical colleges,
would be remedied by free medical
education. The latter must be stan
dardized, systematized and glorifled. "

NEW RULING IN
SELF DEFENSE CASES
CRIMINAL COURT OF APPEALS
REVERSES JOHN MULkEY
CASE.

Oklahoma City, Okla. Feb. ca
new ruling in regard to self-de-
fense pleas in homicide cases is laid
down by the criminal court Of
appeals Monday in reversing the
conviction of Jno. Mulkey of Carter
county, sentenced to ten years for
killing Dennis Lawson on Decem-
Der 4, 1908. 1t is held that the
defendants viewpoint as to the dan
ger confronting him must be taken
in Judging such plea.
In judging of the danger" says
the court, the circumstances must
be viewed as they appeared to the
defendant when he shot the de-
ceased, and though the danger was
not real but merely apparent, it
must be held that the homicide
was justifiable if at the time the
conduct of the deceased was such
under the circumstances as to reas-
onably induce the defendant to be-
lieve that deceased was about to
kill him or to do him some great
bodily HARM"
A still more advanced stand on
the same subject is taken in the
case of Henry Johnson, from Mus
kogee county, sentenced to four
years for killing David Hairless,
which is reversed on the ground
that if reasonable doubt existed
as 10 whether the defendant was
justified in acting in his own nee
essary self-defense, he should be ac-
quilted. The case of James Floyd.
convicted in Pottawatomie county,
of assault with a deadly weapon
was also reversed on similar
grounds.

CHAPTER FOUR.

The glow of warm June day
still fingered on the smooth lawn OF
the Grandport place. Beside the thick
hedge at the end of the garden
the tea-table had been spread. Nita
Parry, fresh and white, was serving
tea to the little company. Her broad
brow was not crossed by a line,
her composed movements bespoke
one who had fitted her world to her.
The man who sat beside her said
something that caused her lips to
curve in a pleased smile.

asked solicitously, leaning forward
towards her guest. AS she spoke

Mrs. Grandport, frail old lady who
had been slipping her tea and con
templating the gentle scene with
aged content, said:
"Nita | would like another cup
of tea, just the same"
But her daughter paid 10 atten.
ton to the demand.

terwards related, Il Just turned my

He was gone, and the old banker,
pondering his confused words. said
to himself something about unbal
anced and hysterical temperaments,
something of contempt, and that
night he told his wife he had seen
a ghost.
Parry, passing through his old
quarters in the outer offices, looked
about him with curious eyes, as he
might regard the fantastic furniture
of a dream. There were clerks at
the desk whom he had known and
spoken with daily for years, but he
did not speak to them. They would
start at the voice of the ghost. SO
the shabby figure with the lean
brown face went on into the street
where many men hurried to and
fro, and the babbe of multifarious
life dinned in his ears, sounding as
the roar of distant ocean.
