IT'S station. tents ere put up, the medical
cases are opened, and their contents
placed In readiness for use: an operating
table is improvised by placing two of the
folding panniers together. so that they will
afford place on which to lay the wound
ed while the surgeon Is working over them;
while the cook sets up his tent and makes
ready to prepare light nourishment.
The dressing places are intended to he
only temporary stopping places for the
wants are attended to they are conveyed
back to the ambulance stations in light
bamboo stretchers carried by the litter
bearers of the hospital corps. Thence the
ambulances carry them back to the divi-
sion hospitals.
The Hospitals Proper.
The hospitals proper are near enough
the base of action so that they may be
transported in army wagons and equipped
with q full outfit of medical and surgical
supplies, comfortable cot beds and other
conyenienceS which are necessarily lack
ing in the field. Here the wounded are
supposed to rest until they can be trans
ferred to permanent hospitals or to the
hospital ships, as will probably be the case
in the Cuban campaign.
In case the army moves so rapidly that
the army wagons cannot keep up, or in
such rough country that they cannot
easily make their way. a flying detach-
ment of the field hospital will be organ
lied, consisting of light ambulance and
medical wagons, which can go wherever
troops can march. They will carry every
thing that the heavier supply trains con-
tain, only in smaller quantities
The position of the army surgeon has
greatly improved of recent years. Lieut..
Col Forwood, assistant surgeon general T.
S. A, says: "The medical department now
stands about on footing with other staff
Evening star., 1898-05-07

departments. Its Supremancy in all mat
tiers affecting the health of the troops as
well as the care of those actually wounded
has been at length practically conceded
This improvement in the standing of the
army medical staff is due to the improve
ment In the service and in the character of
the men composing 1t. When the army
surgeon was drunken, ignorant fellow it
was natural enough that he should be held
In slight esteem. That he now occupies a
hlgh position in the estima ton and con-
ndence of the military authorities is the di-
rect result of his success in organizing and
extending the usefulness Of the military
medical service. -ar
Sanitary Conditions.
Not the least important respect in which
this branch of the service has been i'm
proved is in the sanitary condition of
camps. He is the sanitary officer of his
command, and his advice is to be sought in
the location OF camp and garrisons. in the
construction of buildings, the quality Of
food and clothing. and the general require
ments of cleanliness and sanitation He
must constantly guard against the enemy
IN the rear. which. in the form of fevers
scurvy. cholera and other diseases. has car
ried off many times as many fighting men
as were ever killed by bullets. The saving
OF lives from improved sanitary and health
conditions in camp and on the march will,
probably be one of the most Notable
achievements of the medical service in any
coming war
The position and work of an army sur
geon Is most trying. The legation of an
artery or the amputation Of y limb may be
q simple matter where there is ample time
and plenty of assistants, but when this has
to be done on the field. with hastily pre-
pared and deficient arrangements. with in
adequate help or none, In the midst of con-
fusion and hurry, and the claInor OF wound
ed men suffering on all sides from want Of
attention, in the night most likely, with
only a Pickering candle or two for light.
in the rain ard mud. with cold hands and
benumbed fingers. tired and exhausted from
overwork 1t becomes quite another thing
Hence. all honor to the army surgeons, who
have NOR work and less chance Of glory
than any other branch Of the servIca''

Further reports of the bush fires in Vic
toria show that the damage done by the
second outbreak was enormous. All through
the fire-swept region in Gippsand the in
habitants are suffering great privations
and in many other parts of the colony
things are nearly as bad Among the places
which were ruined is the township of An
glesea, about twenty-five miles from Gee
long, where the local hotel and the Anglican
Church were burned out. The township at
Ferntree Gully narrowly escaped destruc-
tion, the energy of a gang of railway en-
pioyes saving it. but the beautiful Fern
tree Gully Park was simply swept away
by the fire. the trees and ferns being re-
duced to ashes
The newspapers are full of stories OF
narrow escapes and terrible experiences
Perhaps the most exciting is the story of
man called Whelan of Wild Dog creek
He was alone when the fire swept down
on him. He was soon surrounded by
names. and he rushed around looking for
break in the fire. He could find none but
seeing spot where the grass had burned
low ne determined upon a rush through
It. He had not gone far. however when
nc found his passage blocked by a sheet
OF surglpg flame and by falling timber All
hope of life seemed past, but, plunging
once again through corner of the fire.
Whelan ran for Wild Dog creek. The
flames followed him down the hill, and he
Jumped into the creek and lay full length
IN the shallow waters. The creek could
give him protection only while he Law i'm If.
EVEN then his head was exposed and his
halr was singed by successive tongues of
name which passed over the shallow wa
tercourse. All through the long hours of
.ne afternoon and night Whelan lay there,
not DARING to move, even though trees of
giant stature fell all around him. The wa

1t was Saturday night. and the squadron Of spain
Was at rest in the bay
Inc sun mad gone down on unbroken main
Where the waves were at play
ine SKY mad grown dark, and the air had grown
chill,
And the gun-mantled deck and the gun. .m.ntled
Ihe evening was merry with quip and with lest
With wine and with song
At the thought Of the foeman the heart in each
Beat full and beat strong.
He should feel .he full need Of the brave Snan-
fard's scOrn
He should find how Spain's ports-sbo,,d ba .ou.
IN the morn
Were defended.
Past midnight. The city is shrouded in gloom:
And black is the sky.
The harber is still. In the peace Of the tomb
The war ressels lie;
But beneath the dark batteries crownipo tho sbora
whose guns are asleep thaply dreaming of war;
There Is motion.
In the gloom. in the dark, past that threatening
With relentless design,
Recking naught cf the water beneath and before
With Its treacheIous mine
Far into the bay, beyond hope of retreat
Great Dewey has come with Americas feet
From the ocean.
1t is now Sunday morn. Hark. the note of a gun
With Its loud, angry roar!
Your challenge is tardy. The harbor is won
Our journey is DER.
From China on our course swift and
straight,
Ever urged by the goad of the ,nercless fate
OF the Maine.
do you ask US what price We demand for the
And our comrades at arms?
what sacrifice, ere our just wrath We restrain,
With its death-dealing storms?
The answer, IL answer to give you we deign.
Is explicit and briefs explicit and plain:
1t is-Spain!
Gun retorts upon gun; shell retorts upon shell:
And again, and again.
And the bark Of each iron -mouthed dog is a kuell
For many brave men.
In the roseate dawn with its sweet vernal breath
There is carnage and wreck: there's destruction
And despair.
And the soft tapping wave drinks the blood Of the
As 1t flows. as it drips.
And the harbor's deep cave Is a fathomless grave
For men and for ships.
And the proud Spanish forces shall perish or Zee
And the proud Spanish squadron shall litter the sea
And the air.
Give the spaniard his need: he has fought well
and long
in the face Of defeat.
He has proved himself brave; he has proved him.
self strong;
He has sunk with bis feet.
He dared to the end his implacable foe,
And died for the honor of Spain Let him 60
To his glory.
But to him who in vengeance shot straight to the
heart
or the enemy's hold;
Whose mission no fear Of the enemy's art
Could cause to grow cold;
Our voices. Cur hearts, in proud rapture we give;
And ever the mem'ry Of Dewey shall live
In our story.

Miss Elizabeth w. Bells recent portrait
of General Fitzhugh Lee, now on view at
Veerhoff's. is naturally subject of consid-
cradle interest at this time. On account of
the softness and delicacy of texture which
are characteristic of Miss Bells work, her
style seems to be better adapted to fem
mime heads, where 1t lends a certain charm
but Is somewhat unsatisfactory in the
present portrait because of the failure to
give an impression of strength, although
In other respects she has succeeded in max
ing a very good likeness.

Although she has ordinarily worked
largely in black and white. most Of Miss
Hattie f. Burdette's recent work in that
medium has had q more special tendency
in the direction of Illustration. The strong
decorative feeling and imaginative quality
which mark everything that comes from
her hands are much in evidence in sew
eral large decorative subjects she has
lately done in charcoal One charcoal head
Is particularly nice In it's modelling all the
lines being full of suggestiveness. Her
principal work for some time has been a
portrait in profile OF Julia Marlowe Miss
Burdette's treatment Of the hair and of
the flesh tints has been very satisfactory,
and though studied from photograph the
result is both a good likeness and an IDEAL
ly charming head.
