Wilshire talked last night to an inter- ested audience at Nationalists’ Hall about the friction which exists between labor and capital.

At the last meeting Dr. Mathews was a close second in the race for the presidency of the American Medical Association. Dr. Mathews has a wide reputation as an able and finished orator. PROGRESS IN SURGERY. Dr. Matthews in commencing his paper said it was the understanding that the paper on surgery should be devoted to a review of the progress in that branch of the profession dur- ing the year past. This would be too much of an undertaking for him today and would weary his hearers. Consequently he would confine himself to a discussion of but one phase of the subject, stricture of the rectum. fo trented at considerable length and in » masterly way the etiology, pathology, symp’ mology, dlagnosis ‘and treatment of ihe disease. His paper reviewed the doctor's own experi- ence in the treatment of many cases of this formidable disease, and was listened to with the greatestinterest by all tho audience, who appreciated its value. The treatments of the disease now, according to Dr. Matthews, are dilatation, incision, electrolysis, extirpation or excision, colotomy. and each in'turn was dis- cussed and its merits and disadvantages fully described. The reading of the paper was ited with applause and on motion of Dr. ancoast the thanks of the association were tendered to Dr. Matthews for his able paper. Dr. Frederick Homer, U. 8. N., introduced a resolution asking the appointment of a section of benevolence to care for the widows and orphans of deceased fellows. It was carried. A SECRETARY OF PUBLIC HEALTH. Dr. Comegys of Ohio, from the committee appointed yesterday on the question of me- morializing Congress to create a new cabinet official to be known as the secretary of public health, reported in favor of the suggestion. The paper rehearsed the duties that would properly belong to a secretary of public health ‘and recited the advantages that would neces- sarily result from the appointment of such a Public official. ‘The paper asked that the president of the association be authorized to appoint a com- mittee of five to memorialize Congress to this effect, and the report and resolution were unanimously adopted. Dr. moved a vote of thanks to the management of the journal of the association and recommended i continuance. | This was opposed by Dr. Hamilton, who objected to the association dictating to the trustees in the form of the recommendation involved in the motion as to continuing the present management of the journal. The motion was carried with an amendment that nothing in it should be con- sidered mandat mandatory. Dr. Marshall of Illinois read a brief from the committee appointed to formulate a plan for strengthening and perfecting the sec- tions of the association. An amendment to the constitution abolishing the committee of necrology was laid over for a = and after a few unimportant matters had 1 disposed of the association adjourned until tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock.

Why Ex-Surgeon General Hammond Did Not ‘Want It Served Last Night. Ex-Surgeon General Hammond appeared in the office of the clerk of the Police Court yes- terday afternoon and swore to the warrant charging Correspondent Wm. L. Crounse of the New York World with libel,as stated in yes- terday’s Stan. The warrant charges the publication of » certain defamatory and libelous article intend- ing to vilify and defame the doctor and bring him into public scandal and disgrace. The article, which is alleged to be false, is made part of the affidavit. It reads as follows: “The Limit on Doctors’ Bills. “$5,000 for Removing a Wen From the Sealp of a Senator's Wife. “Washington, The unanimous im- April jon among Washiny ton physic: ite ‘that Surgeon General William A Hews mon ral William A.

If for any canse one of these glands fails to work well the oil is likely to form a clot in_the follicle which holds the root of the hair. Nature's effort to get rid of this clot by inflammation is called a pimple, but if the clot isnot expelled in this way it may form the nucleus of a small accumulation of cheesy matter, which degenerates and causes a swelling. This is a ‘sebaceous wen,’ such as bothered Mrs. Stanford.

A.shoe should beso made that when first worn it is comfortable, when ‘worn all day and until worn out itis still comfortable, To produ-e a shoe Possessing these veduable qualities it fenecessary to have laste of proper shape.
