SOME INTERESTING PAPERS READ President Eliot's Brief Sketch of the Work of the Organization. RESPONSES TO TOASTS The decennial of the Medical and Surgi- cal Sociéty of the District of Columbia was celebrated-last night by its members by a largely attended meeting and banquet after- ward at the Ebbit House. The meeting took place in the lecture room of the Georgetown Law School, and during its ses- sion a number of interesting papers were read. Dr. Liewellyn Eliot, president of the society, opened the exercises with an address, during wnich he traced the early history of the society, its struggles and successes until it became one of the rank- ing old societies of the country. Member- ship in medical societies, he said, is an absolute necessity for physicians, since they serve to broaden his views by an in- terchange of ideas and the fostering of friendships.- It is through such member- ship that sanitary and hygienic laws for communities are encouraged. It is the doc- tor who demonstrates the source of pollu- tion of the wate: suppiy and the charac- ters of the different organisms, and it be- comes his mission to correct the same. Started With Six Members. The society waz formed October 30, 1888, with six members—Drs. Eliot, Chamberlin, Hazen, J. S. Harrison, Ober and George Byrd Harrison. At that time there was a field for a new society, especially one as organized, and papers were read and dis cussed in that spinit of justness and fair- ness which forms and cements triendships. Members were at first admitted slowly, and only after a searching investigation. Th members of the society held high po: in the medical bodies of the country, and left their impress of good work honestly performed upon everything they unde tcok. Dr. Eliot referred to the high cna acter of the papers presented at the meet- ings of the society. Many of them have been widely copied both at home and abroad. He cailed special attention and asked individual assistance in the collecti investigation of disease as seen in the Di trict of Columbia. In this work every prac- titioner can take his share, and while at first it will entail a littte labor, the pleasure and benetit “to the individual and to the profession would more than repay for the jabor expenced. Four hundred men work- ing together in this way would be able to present an array of facts relating to the morbidity and mortality of the District o! Coluinbia which would refute many of the slanders upon our cities. Very many facts are buried .betwgey the leaves of 4 physician’s call book, vefy many facts are but faintly remembered by reason of care- lessly kept case books. Ur. Eliot then read the roll of honor of the society, and men- tioned the names of those who met their death in the discharg® of duty. Other Papers Read. Dr. Landoa B. Edwards of Richmond, Va., discussed in an able paper the benefits to a community and the fgedical profession from medical examning bdards. Dr. W. W. Johnston of this city read a paper that was considered the gem of the evening. It was an intelligent discussipn of the relation ot health to education. “Phe speaker illustra ted his remarks witii a number of chart upon which he tracé@ the deveiopment of the brain. He did novbe.ieve in the pr em of compuisory education. A child should be carctully exammed before being sent to schodl.

RR NATIONAL MASONIC TEMPLE. A Committee Engaged in the Selec- tion of a Site. The committee appointed to select a site for the proposed National Masonic Temple, of which Mr. Matthew Trimb'e is chair- man, has announced that-preporals will be received from property owners for a site, centrally located, and thes ‘propesais will be opened November 12. Jt is believed that many offers will be received, anc it is set- tled that when a site, has-been selected and purchased active measures will be taken to commence the constructicn ef the building. There is already a yery-large sum of money in readiness to commence ihe work. ‘The highly successful fair, held last spring at Convention Hall, resulted in a fund of about $0,000, of which $46,600 is in the hands of the board of control, and the various lodges have already subscribed a total of about $60,000 additional, to be de- voted to the purchase of stock in the cor- poration which will control the building.

He pr tics to show that the losses im the recent war had been less than during the same period in the war of the rebellion, and said that, when the resu'ts of six months of war of the present day can be compared with the first six months of tne civil war, he was confident that the work of the army medical corps would be found above crit cism. He thought that the medical colieges should pay attention to the line of work which would fit physicians for service in case of war. H equipment and ington for the ine, and de- clared that the many advantages were not fully known to many members of the pro- fession. He said that it was wrong to send students to Baltimore and Philadelphia to study their profession upon the supposition that better clinic and hospital ‘ities were offered at those places.’ The students should be kept at home, where the facill- ties are equal to those of the other cities. The Banquet. After the adjournment at the law college building the members of the society and their friends, to the number of about fifty, participated in a banquet at the Ebbitt House. After discussing an excellent menu Dr. Eliot called the assemblage to order and toasts were responded to by Drs. Stone, Kelly, Kober, Edwards, Alden, Woodward, Bishop, Massen and Morgan. Hach speaker was happily introduced by Dr. Elot and the addresses were above the average of postprandial efforts. Dr. Woudward. who spoke upon “Public Health,” was decidedly interesting, and gave utterance ta some forceful and original views upon the sub- ject which he is daily dealing with as the health officer of the District. The success of the celebration, both as to the intellectual and gastronomic results, was due to a committee of arrangements compgsed of Drs. Clifton Mayfield, Presley Cc, Hunt, Elmer Sothoron and Llewellyn Eliot. —.___ BURROWS WILL BE DEFEATED. is the Prediction of Harry Smith, Ex-Journal Clerk. To the Editor of The Evening Star: Your issue of this afternoon contains a paragraph headed “Burrows in Michigan,” which is erroneous in Several vital respects, and, with your leave, I’ will briefly point them out. The articlé states that Burrows of late has been steadily, ‘gaining, and that his re-election seems,propable. The fact is that up to Saturdayijlast, the 22d instani, all nominations for the legislature had been made by the repubfitans save in Wayne county. The BurrdWs people, under the lead of Collector of €ustoms Rich, made a desperate fight, and oat af the fifteen mem- bers of the legislature fram Wayne county secured one, the remaining fourteen going to Mr. Pack, and, as a matter, of course, these votes will go toowhoever shall be final- ly decided upon as the apti-Burrows candi- date. The Michigan;delegation is an un- certain quantity. In, 1890, in addition to electing a democriitic ‘ governor, both branches of the legislature were dethocratic. ‘The state was redistricted for congressmen and a law passed providing that the elec- toral vote should be cast by congressional districts, which resulted in giving Mr. Cleve- land in 1892 five of Michigan’s electoral votes. In 1892 the republicans regained the legislature and elected their candidate for governor and repealed the law referred to. The year 1894, when Mr. Burrows was elect- ed to the Senate, was the great tidal wave year, and in the legislature, composed of 100 members in the lower and 32 members in the higher house, but one democrat was elected—“‘Donovan of Bay.’ In 1896, the presidential year, when an immense vote was polled, McKinley carried the state by 57,000 plurality and Pingree, for governor, by_ 83,000 plurality.

When the fact is stated that of this number over one- balf are in democratic or in close districts the value of this bit of boasting and brag- ging will be appreciated. I was at the state convention in De- troit on September 21, and spent three weeks visiting the larger cities of the state, and after nearly thirty years of campaign- ing in Michigan I predict that, owing to the bitter attacks made by the old “machine” upon Governor Pingree and by the equally bitter attacks of Governor Pingree upon the “machine,” especially directed against Sen- ator Burrows, there will be at least 45 dem- ocratic members in the legislature to be elected and possibly 50, and of this number Mr. Burrows will lose fully two-thirds, while the nominees pledged to Mr. Pack or against Mr. Burrows are from districts that are reasonably certain to go republican. Senator McMillan recognized this fact in his recent interview, and stated that if the democrats increased their vote in the legis- lature the vote of Senator Burrows would be decreased. Senator McMillan has never predicted the re-election of Senator Bur- rows, but if he had it would be of little value, for the reason that he has been ab- sent from Michigan since adjournment at his summer home at Manchester, Mass., and confesses that he knows nothing of the political condition of the state. He hopes for Senator Burrows’ reelection and that is all. He will be disappointed, however, for the legislature will either elect Albert Pack as Mr. Burrows’ successor or some other strong republican. I have recently received numerous letters from prominent republicans throughout the state friendly and otherwise to Mr. Burrows, who are not interested personally in the campaign ex- cept as good citizens, and the almost unan- imous opinion of these men is that Mr. Bur- rows will be defeated.
