It Is unfortunate that 20 many Of the
Spanish soldiers transported from San
tFago died en- the way home, but the
charge CT neglect cannot be tai,ly made
against the American commanders.
The death rate was very high In the
Spanish camps outside CT Santiago
after General Toral surrendered. The
Americans furnished these Spaniards
with food until arrangements could be
made to send them to Spain. These
soldiers were acclimated-at least,
more SO than our own. hundreds ef
whom were sick at the same time.
Rain failing in torrents and a scorch-
ing sun made the worst possible condi-
items for both armies. but after the
Spaniards surrendered they were fairly
treated by the Americans, rs they
themselves admitted. The chief rea-
SON why the Spanaards fell victims to
disease in such large numbers was due
to their poor physical condition. Be-
fore Santiago was invested there was
not enough food for the men. Supplies
were SO short that little rice and a
few other articles, but no meat, was
all that was available. When the men
were called upon to do hard fighting
ard combat the floods and the sun, it is
not surprising that i'm their rundown
condition fevers swept them off by
scores. The mortality among the
American troops would have been
mu6Il greater but for the fact that
physically they were superior to the
Spaniards.

i 1T was an unpfetentious life that

6S years ago as bride. and who enjoys
the privilege Of being everybody q

ness and influence were so happily
exerted upon her son Hart. The gar
den in front of this quaint dwelling

refused to receive it's pay from the
hands of colored paymaster there
were not wanting expressions of opin-
ion, both North and South, that its
prejudices should be humored and Il
white paymaster sent to pay it off; but
the authorities at Washington sensibly
decided that discipline must be en-
forced and the dignity of the govern
ment which made Major Lynch a pay
master must be sustained. The resi-
ment was promptly informed that if il
did not take it's money when it could
get it it would have to wait for it, and
with the prospect of being entangled in
interminable red tape before them the
disgruntled soldiers capitulated at dis
cretion The money was paid them

Characterization is all right. The
American people have shown a friend

They have expended hundreds Of lives
and hundreds of millions of dollars to
give freedom to the Cubans, and they
did this. too, without any, immediate
expectation of gain to themselves.
They promised to let the Cubans set up
an independent government if the ma
jority of the Cuban people desire it..
This promise will be kept.

Undoubtedly the people who risk and
sometimes lose their lives in mountain
climbing, as several notable cases have
recently been reported, might find mora
useful employment for their energies,
but, at all events, they show that the
energy is there. and that is no small
matter. Their energy is the same
restless impulse that leads others to
explore new countries, to achieve diff
cult undertakings and to advance civil
iZation. 1t is significant that most Of
these Alpine climbers are Anglo
SaXons, and, just as they conquer the
most difficult mountain peaks, SO their
race is conquering and already domi-
mates the world.

The hcottage plan" CT caring for the
insane, which, as practiced at Gheel, in
Holland, has been remarkably success
full in restoring the patients to health,
is to be tried in New York. The Hol-
land way of applying it is to take the
sufferers to the country, and there dis
tribute them in farm houses and viii
lagos, among people who will give
them careful personal attention, and
where they will be free from every
form of excitement. AS it is to be ap-
piled in New York, the patients will be
housed i'm million dollar group of
buildings, and looked after by state
employees. There is a great difference
between the two methods, although
they bear the same name.
