DIR. KERsHNER's CASE.
Secretary Herbert VIII Give the Ac-
cused Hearing.

The case of Medical Director Kershner of
the navy is now before the Secretary of the
Navy. At the instance of the friends of
that officer he has agreed to hear an argu-
ment by his counsel before taking final ac-
ton. The hearing will take place at the
Navy Department in q few days. Both
sides will be heard. Judge Choate will
probably speak in behalf Of DR.. Kershner,
and the judge advocate general Of the navy
will represent the court which tried the
case.
Supposed Result of the Court-Martial.
This officer was recently court-martialed
at New York on two charges Of scandal
Gus conduct prejudicial to good order and
military discipline. One of the charges
was that he published official correspond
ence in violation Of the regulations, and
the other charge was that he committed
perjury in having denied that act AL
though not officially admitted, it is gen.
orally understood that he convicted
of one or both charges and sentenced to
be dismissed the service.
AS is well known, these charges grew
out of difference of opinion between Ad-
miral Meade and DR.. Kershner as to the
officers duty while the North Atlantic
squadron was cruising in the West Indies
in the spring: The surgeon refused to re-
spond to a call for medical aid from a mer-
chant vessel on the ground that he did not
wish to jeopardize the health of the officers
and crew of the ship to which he was at
tached. He feared that 1t might be a case
of yellow fever, and that his attending 1t
might possibly result in introducing the
contagion on the warsnip.
Now Under Arrest.
Admiral Meade reprimanded him severely
for his conduct, and the correspondence
between the two got into the newspaper
a most serious .offense in the eyes of the
officials Of the Navy Department. DR.
kershner has been detached from duty and
Is under arrest in New York, pending
settlement of his case. He has brilliant
war record and his many friends are en-
deavoring to secure a mitiga ton of his sen
tence. The case will eventually go to the
President for action.

Nordau on Wilde.


In word, Nordau forsaw and pro-
claimed, while as Yet the ak of English
justice had not fallen. that Wilde and
men like him belong 10 those elements
OF the race which are most ininical TO
society. Insensihie TO its tasks and inter-
ests, without the capacity 10 comprehend
a serious thought or a fruitful deed. they
dream only OF the satisfaction of their
basest instincts, and they are pernieious
through the example they set as drones.
as well as through the confusion they
cause in minds insufiicientiy forewarned,
by their abuse Of the word art, to mean

that IL could be only a question of a
short time when the healthy human in

volt and consign the perverted professors
OF the esthetic type of megalomania and
the malodorous preachers of decadentism
and diabolism 10 the penitentiary or the

Vacant Lots a. Agricultural schools


II Is often said by people IN our large
cities: Why don't the poor go into the
country and work? There is an abunG-
ancs OF work with the farmers. They
need help. and often find IL Impossible
az times 20 get what help they actually
need" The reason Is that the city Iaborer
knows nothing whatever about practical
farming. That is fully demonstrated by
the experiment now being tried by the
association for improving the condition
OF the poor. II is said that these people
are not only willing. bat anxious 10 work
but no farmer could afford 10 employ such
labor. They know nothing whatever about
putting In the seed, or how 10 take care
OF the crops. I'm planting potatoes often
putting I'm pieces without any eyes. and.
then again. putting In pieces with 1--WE
or six eyes: sometimes planting a foot
deep. at others only an inch. so that
they have 10 be watched closely and in
structed all the time. IL will be readily
seen that no farmer could afford 10 hire
this kind OF labor. as the seed and plant
ing time is one OF the most Importance.
IL ia hoped that this experiment will. in
a measure. lead 10 the education OF these
people in all agricultural matters. Many
OF them have expressed desire 10 20 to
the country. and some have taken hold
OF the experiment with view of learn
ing something about agriculture and
seeking home In the country.
