smells like peaches and cream, or the

Marriage In England.

Englishmen now, it is said, are emu
lating the French in the absolute disin-
clination to marry. When they do de-
eide to take this important step, they
now frequently insist upon that dot
which is part of the French idea of a
successful and convenable marriage.
The real fact of the matter is that the or
binary modern Englishman has no desire
to disturb his bachelor estate. If he has
no title, 40 special wealth, no great his
toric name to hand down to posterity,
single blessedness is good enough for
him. This state of mind is attributed
by many to the growing independence
Of women Possibly this is true, prob
ably it is not. M~ercenary spirits boldly
assert that marriages in England will,
ON the whole, never be successful until
women bring dots to their husbands,
since gold inspires respect if not love.
Marriage on a strictly business basis is
evidently the future for all English wo-
men to look forward to.--San Francisco
Argonaut.

AAeFaeoAo,

The expected has happened, and yel-
low fever has attacked our troops ct
Santiago. The first reports thay were
permitted to reach the publi6 were
dated July 1c, on which day there were
IA new cases. Within three or four
days after that the total number OF
cases to date was admitted to have
been upward of 900, so that it is certain
that the disease has been among the
troops for some time, probably having
attacked them almost Immediately
after the landing was made.
The policy, of sconcealment was
wholly justiffable at that time, for a
confession of the truth would have
served no purpose in protecting the
home ports, and would simply have en-
.couraged. the Spaniards to delay SUR
render, and would have caused unavail-
ing anxiety and discouragement at
home.
All the accounts OF the epidemic
agree. that the disease is in an unusual
ly mild form, by far the greater num-
ber of those attacked recovering after
the normal period of not very great
suffering. Among the sufferers were
very many of the Red Cross surgeons
and nurses, all of whom, so far as is
i known, have entirely recovered or are
convalesccnt. Many immune surgeons
and nurses are on the way now to San
tiago, and will be assigned, to the fever
hospitals Immediately upon their ar
rival.
l Now that there is no human enemy
in our way, our sanitary officers in the
conquered province have an excellent
opportunity to give to the world an
object lesson in cleanliness. And we
are perfectly confident that, with the
filth of Santiago destroyed the houses
cleaned and disinfected, the infected
huts burned, and our camps removed
to the hills as far as that may be pos
sible. Gen. Nomito Negro will follow
the lead of Gen.. Toral and WELD to the
inevitable.
i We have always believed that the
chief reward to our country for un-
dertaking this modern crusade against
the Saracen, and one that 4yill fully
compensate us for expenditure Of
blood and money, will be the liberia
tion of our southern, states from the
constant menace of yellow fever. We
are fighting not only for the freedom
of Cuba from Spanish tyranny, but for
the freedom of America from Spanish
disease. The accomplishment of the
first object is almost realized, and that
of the second is plainly in sight.
1t is NOT expected, however, that this
glorious victory can be won without
a struggle, and we therefore welcome
the battle which is now on, fearful in
deed that the loss may be heavy. yet
with no misgiving as to the outcome Of
the contest.-Medical Record.

PENSION ROLL GROWING.
Commissioners Evan. Predict. That /,
VIII Not Decline Very SOON
Spanish War Pensioners.

Washington, SEPT. 5.-The annual
report OF H. Clay Evans, commissioners
of pensions, was made public satur-
day. Following rs a synopsis of the
main points:
The commissioner says that the roll is
not only increasing in numbers. but In
value. 1t is believed that it will increase
from the war of the rebellion. as there
probably are 100000 ex-union soldiers liv-
ing who have never had pensions, and It
will increase in amount naturally by reason
of increased disabilities as provided by
law. The amounts paid out at the several
agencies for the year on account Of pen-
sions under the general laws were $751;
.75.SS3. and on account OF pensions under
the act Of June q. 1890. $66.255.670. The num-
Der Of pensioners in foreign countries at
the close of the fiscal year was 4.371. hav-
ing increased 309. The total amount paid
to pensioners living abroad was $685.
Pension claims pending June 3d. 1928.
numbered 635O59. The commissioner is con-
fident that there are not over $4,000 of thes !,
0nvalids and widows) that are genuine
original claims The others are cases
where the claimants are already pensioned.
