NOTES.

The fifteenth annual meeting of the Homeopathic Medical Society of the State of Colorado has come and gone. It was characterized by hard and earnest work and a general good feeling throughout.

The papers were good and freely and ably discussed.

The work of the several bureaux was well planned and the work of each session completed in the allotted time.

At the close, a vote of thanks was given the officers for the efficient work done by them to make the meeting such a marked

success.

Politics was not made prominent, when the hour of election arrived no slates were found to be in the field and the utmost good feeling prevailed over the result.

The President, Dr. C. W. Enos presided with all becoming grace and dignity. His rulings were fair and unquestioned.

The Secretary, Dr. Edwin J. Clark had the work well arranged and was present from the beginning to the close of each and every session. He was re-elected as he well deserved to be.

Dr. Clinton Enos, of Brighton not only came with a good paper, but brought his young wife with him, who regaled the audience with some fine singing at the public session.

Dr. Warren D. Howe came with his usual zeal and enthusiasm for the cause. He is a worker and believes in organization. It was very fitting that he should be chosen president; the Society will not languish in his hands.

Dr. C. F. Stough, comparatively new in the state, showed his familiarity with surgery in his paper on Injuries of the Hand and

their Care. He is associated with the well known Dr. W. C. Allen, for many years a leading Surgeon of Colorado Springs. Drs. Allen and Stough make a strong team, and if they build a Homeopathic Hospital in the Springs we will come to the opening and THE CRITIQUE will give them as good a send off as pos

sible.

Drs. Sheridan and Collins, the former from Florence, and the latter from Westcliff, were regular attendants at the several sessions.

No annual meeting of the State Society would be complete without the presence of Dr. Genevieve Tucker, of Pueblo. She was present and took an efficient part at every session.

It was not a drudge, but a genuine pleasure to attend such a medical meeting as the one just closed.

During the recent meeting of the State Society, a pleasant reunion of the Chicago Medical College men present was held at the Brown Palace Hotel. The following named doctors with their wives sat down to an elegant dinner propared for the occasion: W. D. Howe, of Cañon City; C. F. Stough, of Colorado Springs; J. W. Harris, of Denver; P. P. Collins, of Westcliff; H. M. Sheridan, of Florence; C. M. Beebe, of Denver,

To live to give pleasure to your fellow man "is living as you go." Such is the reputation held by Mr. W. T. Kirkpatrick, and justly so. Mr. Kirkpatrick is a business man of Durango, Colorado, holding the responsible position of agent of the Continental Oil Co. at that place. He is also known as the fish king of the state, having given to the state more fish from his private lake and hatch. eries than any other person. Through the good graces of Mr. E. C. Halsey and U. S.

The members of the Park Co. wish to thank these gentlemen for the kindness extended, and assure them the pleasure of catching the trout in the future by members and their friends will be again appreciated.
