THE JOURNAI, OF PHARMACOLOGY. 39 



©bituary. 



It is with sincere regret that we find it necessary to chronicle in this issue, the death 

 of C. A. L. Amend, who graduated from the College of Pharmacy of the city of New 

 York in in the year 1889, and shortly afterwards became a life member of the Alumni 

 Association : 



Mr. Amend, was born May 30, 1808, he attended and graduated from Columbia 

 Grammar School, and after graduation entered his father's business (Mr. B. G. Amend, 

 of the well known drug firm of Emier and Amend). 



When the above named firm was incorporated in the year 1897, he became one of 

 its directors. 



He was married to Miss Helen Frautwein of Hoboken, New Jersey, Oct. 22, 1891, 

 and the union was blessed with a girl who is now five years of age. 



He was also a member of the New York Ariou and Liederkrantz Societies, and was 

 the youngest of three sons of Mr. B. G. Amend, the president of the above mentioned 

 firm. 



He died on Friday, Jan. 19, 1900 at seven o'clock A. M. after a brief illness, of pneu- 

 monia, he having been able to be about the day previous. Always a hale fellow well 

 met, of sterling character and sunny disposition, his death has removed a good mem- 

 ber, friend, and citizen, and he will unquestionably be missed with regret, by his 

 friends, acquaintances, and all with whom he has ever come in contact.

'95 Notes. 



Now that I am temporarily relieved from m}' arduous duties, I take extreme pleas- 

 ure in chronicling the greatest of Alumni successes, the Fifth Annual Ball, held at 

 the Lenox Lyceum on the 31st of January. 



The hall, although quite spacious, was almost overcrowded ; most undoubtedly the 

 immense crowd of old members, many new members and a multitude of new comers, 

 comprised chiefly of the friends of the Association, indicated how steadily and rapidly 

 our Association is assuming vast proportions. 



Such members of our class who were not there, missed one of the most enjoyable 

 occasions of their career, and cannot begin to estimate or conjecture how successful 

 the afl^air really was. To any such let me add that by their presence at the next ball I 

 may be enabled to write of even a more enjoyable and successful occasion, if that is 

 possible. 



Among the many happy faces I saw there, I was enabled to recognize and greet the 

 following : C. H. Bjorkwall, H. B. Ferguson, R. Gies, R. Cordner, B. F. R. Dauscha, 

 R. J. Meighan, L. G. Sharnikow, and many others whose names I cannot now recall.- 



Although there is not a little work attached to my position as class reporter, I take 

 great pleasure in recording the whereabouts and doings of the various members of our 

 class, but unless I am informed of changes of residence and other happenings of our 

 fellow-graduates, it is next to impossible for us to be well represented in each edition 

 of our valuable Journal. 



I am always willing and anxious to act as your class reporter, and beg of you to 

 keep me informed of conditions, which you can do easily by mailing a line to 



Fraternally yours, 



Geo. J. DURR. 



N. B. It is with pleasure that we record the fact that on February 7th, George J. 

 Diirr, the reporter of the '95 notes, became the happy father of a Beautiful, Big, 

 Bouncing, Baby Boy — " Beautiful," beyond belief; " Big," physically ; "Bouncing, 

 because he will probably require lots of it ; " Baby," by birth ; " Boy," by behaviour,
