nected with the staff of Alexian Brothers Hospital, is a native of
Illinois, born at Keithsburg, September 21, 1864.
His parents are Calvin Siechrist and Mary Frances
(Sheriff) Orth, and as the name indicates, he
comes of substantial German ancestry. From the public schools he
graduated finally into Monmouth College, and in 1887 received from
the latter the degree of B.S. Soon afterward he came to Chicago
and was matriculated at Rush Medical College, from which he ob-
tained his professional degree in 1890. Still desirous of greater ex-
perience before entering practice, he secured an internship at Alex-
ian Brothers Hospital, under competitive examination, and remained
