self within tho homo of tho Now York
Academy of .Medlcinu, ouo of tho strong
est medical Mocletlt's In tho world. I
must hasten to say that this Institution
Is not. as uiany fondly tinitginu It to bo,
of mi educational charncter, except so
far as any scluntillc society Is mora or
less educational. It Is siiunly an associ
ation of sclentlllc men for mutual Im
provement In their profession.
Incidentally tlioy havo gathored to
Kothor a library In which thero aro over
00,000 Im)oI(h and pamphlets, and inci
dentally, too. they have bonetltetl tho
peoplo of this country by tholr notion in
tlmcH of epidemic. Nor must tho uni
form stand taken by tho academy In
favor of liberality and freedom In tho
profession and practice of medicine bu
passed over lu sllenco. Its niemlwrs
havo realized with wise Judgment 'at
the world has not stood still, and that
knowledge is not necessarily confined to
any man or sot of men They havo
thrown ojien tho door, tlioy havo listened
to nil earnest workers. I hey held up
the hands of tho medical society of tlio
state when it moved against tho ancient
code of ethics, rightly believing that tho
world had moved since this was written.
Tlioy have welcomed women Into tho
Hold of medicine, heartily and honestly.
They havo done much for tlio profession
which tlioy honor and which honors
them.
Tho Now York Academy of Medicine
Is, as n body of learned men, about
forty-four years old Tho building in
which It now is, and which bears tho
same name, had its comer stone laid on
tho 2d of October, I8S0. and was ready
for occupancy in the following year. It
la built on three city lots and is five
stories high. Tho architect was Mr. II,

brick and carved stone.
In tho basement of tho building aro tho
boilers for driving the ventilating fans,
dynamos and elevator. Hero, too, aro
tho Ventilating airways through which
air is taken from the roof, warmed if
necessary and forced into all parts of the
building. Tho kitchen is bore, for some
times thero are modest suppers givou by
some of the societies using the rooms or
by the academy itself In one corner of
the basement is the room where the
books are received and sent up by a sort
of dumb waiter to tho library above.

This library I okjii to all who may
legitimately use it without leferenco to

There are two small rooms, ono over the

In tho fifth Btory are the rooms given up
to the resident librarian, who is also the
superintendent of tho building. A largo

I have spoken of the section rooms.
These are rooms fitted up with seats,
platforms nnd places for the olllcers.
They are, In fact, small lecture rooms.
The academy is divided into sections,

Han KitA.Ncmco. Sept. 8(1. -A fow dnya
Ago I had occasion to visit Astoria,
which, like nil western towns nnd cities.
Inyscinlm to some particular point of nd
vantage over other towns and cities. As
torln claims tis her crowning feature to
be the only deep seaport of tho state. It
is also the headquarters of tho Columbia
river salmon Industry, and that alono
means vastly more than would seem a',
first glauco
If 1 were asked to glvo the plnco a dis
tinctive title I would call It the city on
stilts It Is on the south shore of the
Columbia, some twelve miles from tho
mouth of thi.t river, and some hundred
odd mites ftoui Portland It is snid to
be tho largest city in the country thnt Is
without a railroad. Many plans nnd
propositions have been inadu from time
to time to build a road to connect Asto
ria with the tmnscontiuental lines at or
near Portland, but so far nothing tangi
ble has come of them, though a lino is at
present under construction
With a rail outlet or connection with
tho great grain centers of the Columbia
tributary country, Astoria would at
once tnko Its proper position ns an im
portant seaport. Slnco tho government
lias put in Jetties nt tho mouth of the
Columbia the hitherto obstructive bar
lias been practically disposed of, nnd a
channel of ample depth for tho largest
ships to pass lu safety has boon created.
The town has n water frontage of
nearly six miles, nnd thero Is practically
no limit to its extension To reach deep
wnter, the docks and warehouses havo
been constructed several hundred feet
out Into the wnter, and the business
streets havo crowded down ns closo to
tho docks ns possible And this has re
sulted in several streets being literally
built on stilts or piles driven into the
bottom of the river nt tide lovel, nnd
blocks of Btorcs, tesldonccs, hotels and
btreet railroads nro constructed out over
the wnter If a slit woro cut between
the street enr tracks, similar to those
used lu cable lines, puengcra on the
cars could troll for llsh down tho main
business streets As it Is, tho streets
nnd sidewalk') all being planked over,
boys fish through tho cracks In the
streets and through crevices in tho back
yards
This part of the city has no need for
sewers, ns tho tides carry nil tefusouwny
twice In overy day The residences,
churches nnd other buildings aro extend
ing back on the hills, and streets arc be
ing graded up steep inclines, and when'
the water lino is walled up, ns it oventtt
ally will be. the Intervening space will
be filled in and terra firmn take the
place of the present plank road bridges
which now servo us streets. The wooden
structures, of which the town is chiefly
constructed, nre on piles. But brick
structures, of which thoro is now a sprink
ling in tho water district, aro erected
upon foundations formed by driving

The population is placed nt about
9,000 Two daily papers keep tho people
informed, and two or thrco banks look
after the money Tho principal indus
try, itsldo from an extensive lumbering
interest, is catching, curing nnd can

short, however and for this reason n
largo flonting population comes nnd goes
with th.e canning seasous.

Snakes In I'lku County.
Pike County, Pa., Oc. 1. Thero Is
always morev less spiritual enjoymont
in u wild country that is full to the brim
of quaint people and rattlesnakes Up
here in Pike county nature has toured
forth the rattlesnake with a lavish hand.
The rattlesnake to Piko county is what
the beau is to Boston nnd the onion to
Bermuda: and the native proudly rolls
up his sleeves or, so to speak, shufllos off
his boot to display tho mark of the bite
received years ago. And ho feels the
same peculiar thrill of ecstasy in this dis
play that a seafaring man does in show
ing the artistic tattooing that is, figur
atively speaking, u part nnd parcel of
his person It is difficult to understand
the temperament of a man who loves to
hunt rattlesnakes, and displays the same
enthusiasm in this pursuit that another
exhibits in whipping a trout strenm
A certain native of these parts manip
ulates them with great delight, and for
tho modest sum of three dollars will se

to sew Its mouth up with a needle and
thread with the breezy abandon of a
dressmaker Some men who nre strau
gors to tho country, nnd only ncqualnted
with the nlcoholic serpent, crowd around
these snakes when thoy nro securely
