The Ilomfflopathic Clinical society of

Emma J. Daniels , G. W. "Williams , G. G.

soli. A. W. Hartupeo amfE. T. Allen.
The paper of the evening , presented by
Dr. Daniels the of "
, on subject "pnou-
inonia , " exhibited much study nnd a fine
anpreciation of the rare delicate points
of diagnosis. Tlm treatment by hoimro-
pathic icme/Hcs vvns proven to" the satis
faction of the hearers of the paper to be
the most successful ct discovered.
Dr. Alien raised tlto question of a
specific cliaractor of the disease.
Dr. Williams thought it not at all con
tagious.
Dr. llartupec related several cafrps
treated alloiiathically wliich died nd
others of ii much more serious nature ,
which , under the school treatment , re
covered.
Dr. Dinsmoor declared pneumonia to
bo neither contagious , infectious nor
spccllic , but is duo to blood being
driven from the ponfhery to the lungs ,
and hence the treatment must be directed
to restoring the normal circula
tion by poulticinc nnd _ this
method proves thoroughly satisfactory
Ur. Parsoll believed in nrthoring closely
lo the .similimura and ventilation.
Dr. Sprague tliought that in hypostatic
congestion a "llaxseed Jacket" beneficial ,
l > ut in pnenmouia notha , whore paralysis
and collapse of uir cells are threatened it
is not advisable.
In typhojd condition , when the cells
are beeomingiiccluded and respiration is
rapid Dr. Williams would apply u. cold
jacket , on the principle that the sec
ondary effect is to cause congestion to
skin.
Jr. JJnrroughs advised hot application
to the chest , nnd to have it kept on.
Dr. Parsons spoke of his army experi
ence. He uses vorat. vcr. homaa-pathic-
ally.Dr.
Dr. Wood believed in Individualizing
his cases. Often used cold water compresses -
presses , sometimes hot ; room at seventy
degrees and plenty ot air.
Drs. Hancliott and Parsons wore se

An immense hit was scored last night
in Petrolla's "Carnival of Venice. " The
opera is sparkling from beginning to
end. Tlio music is exceptionally catchy
and the situations well planned. No one
would have dreamed from the smoothness
and precision with which the perform
ance went ofT , that it was a first night.
Notwithstanding its light character the
opera is extremely difficult , and unlim
ited time and anxiety were entailed in its
presentation. The chorus was perfect
nnd the grand march in the sec.ond act
was a masterpiece of drilling.
Abbott hud a soubrottc part iu wliich
the was charming. .Besides the several
pretty solos which the opera contains , she
sang the pxnnisitc lullaby from Ermine ,
with subdued accompanimcntof voices of
the refrain. Miss Annandalc'smnkc-up for
a spinster was a masterpiece aud not
oven Sol Smith Russell could huvo ex
celled it. Pniette nnd Mioholunu imper
sonated two fun-loving young oilicers.
Walter Alton was as dryly dioll as usual ,
nnd kept the audumco in cnntinual good
humor. Montcgritib acted the prut of an
cldcily beau with hpitiu JMfss Abbott
intends to protect her right to the opera
by having only the cnsonible music pub
lished , ruaervmg the dialogue. The re
port that them has uecm dimension in Ilia
rompany was emphatically denied.
Everything 1as pleasant ns possible.
