It is given in Al-Kulliyeh, the magazine published by the Syrian Protestant college in Beirut. To each of the graduates in medicine the oath was administered by the Turkish bead of the medical examining board. We cite a few of the pledges: “That when I am called at the same time by two different patients, the one rich and the other poor, I will accept the call of the poor without taking into consideration the money offered and will do my best for his treatment, and that I will never decline to an- gwer any call, day or night, during the reign of common diseases or of an epidemic or of contagious diseases. “That I will not ask extra fees from the patients and will not act against my conscience by exaggerating their sickness in order to get the calling fees. “That in case of a doubt as to the treatment of a patient I will not leave his life in danger through a failure to consult other doctors on account of my pride.” Modern Bookmaking. A large bindery may bave a capacity of 10,000 books a day. The resources of some of these binderies are won derful. There is an instance on, record where a publishing house took an or- der on Monday for a cloth covered 12mo. volume of 330 pages and ac- tually shipped 2,000 copies of the book on the following Wednesday. The type was set by machinery for the entire 350 pages before work stopped Monday night. Electrotype plates were made so rapidly that on Tuesday morn- ing several printing presses were set in motion. In the meantime covers were made in the bindery, and by Wednesday worning the binders had the book in band. Two thousand vol- umes were completed that day, and the edition of 10,000 was entirely out of the way before Saturday night. In modern bookbinding machinery, as in the production of printing presses, America leads the world.—Philadel- phia North American. Women Prisoners In Japan. The cells in every Japanese prison are practically sleeping dormitories, as the prisoners are engaged in the work sheds all day or attending lectures and lessons in educational subjects, de- portment and morality. The small Jap- anese woman prisoner is even taught how to serve tea properly, because the Japanese have grasped the fundamen- tal truth that whatever raises a wom- an's self respect helps to eliminate bad habits—in a word, to reform her. The keen zest of the prisoners in Japan contrasts with the hopeless, hunted look of our women prisoners in Eng- land. In Japan the women prisoners are learning, learning, learning all the time. They are given prizes and deco- rative rewards for excellence. They are being encouraged instead of re- pressed. Everything is done to instill a real desire for permanent reform.— London Express. In Memoriam. A policeman was entertaining some friends to an afternoon tea, when one of them, with an inquisitive turn of mind. happened to see on a shelf a glass shade, underneath which was a brick, with some flowers upon it. The friend. thinking they were me- mentos of some beroic deeds or were perhaps of some historical interest, asked the policeman why he kept that brick underneath the glass shade. “That brick.,” replied the son of the night, “is what I had thrown at me at the last election.” “And what about the flowers?” fur- ther inquired the friend. “Them flowers,” continued the po- liceman. with a smile that wouldn't come off, ame off the grave of the man that threw the brick.”—Pearson’s.

REUNION IS UNDER WAY Survivors of Federal Army Are Gath- ering at Atlantic City for Annual Encampment and the Attendance Promises to Be Very Large—Thou- sands Expected to Take Part in Big Parade on Wednesday. Atlantic City, N. J, Sept. 20.—The innumerable activities of the national encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic began when the national headquarters were formally opened on the Ocean pier at the foot of Ten- nessee avenue. The weather was not all that could be desired. The temper- ature was pleasant enough, but the heavy clouds that rolled in from the ocean made the air damp and indi- cated rain. Things were early astir at the pier. Veterans who had not seen each other in many years held reunions; there were expressions of joy to see old comrades again and many moments of sorrow when some soldiers learned that dear old friends had gone to their final rest. The big crowd already here was swelled by the inflow of thousands of veterans from all parts of the country on the morning trains. Blue and Gray May Meet. The reunion of the Philadelphia brigade on the Steeplechase pier and the meeting of Colonel Hilary A. Her- bert, a member of President Cleve land’s cabinet and a Confederate offi- cer, with Commander-in-Chief S. R. Van Sant of Minnesota and General Sickles is still talked of among the hundreds of veterans. It is probable that the proposition made by Colonel Herbert to bring about a great meet- ing of the blue and gray will be con- sidered during the week, with the ob- ject of carrying out the suggestion. The national headquarters opened with the first meeting of the executive committee of the national councll of administration. = Commander-in-Chief Van Sant and members of his staff were early-on hand to lend their aid in completing the preliminaries inci- dent to the opening of the encamp- ment sessions Thursday morning. Several committees of the Women's Relief Corps also held their first meet- ing. GOVERNOR CARROLL ON TRIAL lowa’s Executive Accused of Criminal Libel. Des Moines, Sept. 20,—In the Polk county criminal court Governor Car- roll was placed on trial for criminal libel on charges preferred against him by John Cownie, former member of the state board of control, and based on an article which appeared in the Des Moines Daily Capital purporting to come from the governor. Under the Iowa law the state must prove only that the governor author- ized the article and leave it for the jury to decide whether or not it is criminal libel. The defense of the gov- ernor to this will be the alleged truth of the accusations contained. This will be the governor's case and the testimony promises to be highly sen- sational. The state will offer testi- mony in rebuttal to that offered by the governor and the case will probably extend over two or three weeks. When the case was called there was a notable array of legal talent about the counsel’s table. LODGE HAS FAINTING SPELL May Be Compelled to Abandon His Campaign Tour. Boston, Sept. 20.—Following a slight collapse at the conclusion of a political speech at Norwood it is reported that United States Senator Hemry Cabot Lodge may have to curtail his cam- paigning this fall. Senator Lodge has been in some- what poor health for over a year and at the conclusion of an outdoor speech he had a brief fainting spell’ after retiring from the platform. He has fully recovered but the effect of his strenuous work on the stump thus far in the state campaign has sapped his strength. Oldest Ex-Congressman Dead. Kingwood, W. Va., Sept. 20.—James Clark McGrew, aged ninety-seven, who claimed the distinction of being the oldest ex-congressman in the United States, is dead at his home here. Death came unexpectedly from heart failure, following the celebration of his birthday. Fifteen of Crew Missing. Melbourne, Australia, Sept. 20.—The British ship Carnarvon Bay, from Liy- erpool June 20 for Sydney, has been wrecked on King's island. The cap- tain and seventeen men have been picked up, but a second boat with fif- teen men aboard is missing. Passale, N.. J., Grows Rapldly. ‘Washington, Sept. 20.—The popula- tion of Passaic, N.

St. Paul, Sept. 20.—Any movement to divorce the gas fitters from the plumbers will be vigorously opposed by the members: of the United Asso;] ciation of Journeymen Plumbers, Gas Fitters, Steam Fitters and ‘Steam Fit- ters’ Helpers of the United States and Canada, which began its seventeenth, Mennlal convention in this city. When Presldenc John R. Alplne\oti Chicéigo, predident of the association, declared the convention open he rang the curtain up on the largest conven- L tion of plumbers and gas fitters ever held. Nearly 400 delegates are in the session and more are expected to at- tend before the convention s in full swing. THREE MEN ARE DROWNED Superior.
