station in readiness to see those requir-
ing medical care. The apothecary and
nurses are also in attendance.
Those members of the crew who wish
! to consult the doctor form in line out
side the sick bay door and are called
| inside in their turn. The surgeon eX-
amines each person carefully, and, if
the case is mild, the required treatment
is entered in the apothecary's book.
Those cases of a more serious nature
are given immediate and personal at
tention. When it necessitates excusing
| the man from duty, his name and rat
ing is placed on the captains daily re-
port of sick and on an extra list in
tended for the executive officer and
officer of the deck. The latter report
is technically known as the pinnacle
list"
in warship, where the crew con-
sistS of from two to 500 men, some spe-
cial mark is necessary to designate
those excused from duty. For this pur-
pose each man whose name figures on
the pinnacle list is compelled to wear
white badge, bearing q red cross, upon
the arm. MalinSering on shipbOard is
unusual Each crew consists of a GER
tain number OF divisions, and the
necessary ship work is equally appor-
toned. 1t naturally follows that each
man of a division depleted by sickness
is compelled to do extra work, cir
cumstance which makes a shirker ex-
tremely unpopular.
1t is a matter of personal pride with
both surgeon and commanding officer
that the reports of sick sent quarterly
to Washington should contain as few
cases as possible. This in itself is
enough to cause the local medical de-
partment to labor zealously. The sur
Seon in charge not only attends sick
call, but he supervises the selling of
food by gunboats in foreign and home
ports as WELL He is consulted by the
captain on all questions concerning the
health of the crew, and his advice is
invariably taken.
One of the accusations made in the
case of the alleged bad treatment of
the i'll and wounded soldiers returning
from Cuba, and also those in camps,
was that poorly prepared and INSULT
cient food was served out instead of a
rational diet. This matter is carefully
looked after in the navy. Included in
the medical stores of each ship is a
quantity of canned foods, such as tap
loca, corn starch, etc. Liquors. wine
and malt extracts are also supplied.
When it is found advisable to give a
patient specially prepared diet he is
fed from these stores.
Previous to the Spanish
war, when it became necessary to in
valid a disabled officer or sailor from
foreign station home, the patient
was sent either on some returning
man-of-war or by regular passenger
steamer. The advent of the ambulance
ship Solace has substituted much bet
ter means. When the, Solace was in at
tendance on Admiral SIMPSONS fleet
she made several flying trips north
with i'll and wounded, delivering them
at one of the regular naval hospitals
The success of the idea was settled
conclusively. The mode of procedure is
as follows:

The provisions for transporting
wounded men to the temporary sick

as perfect as the construction of the

row passages, numerous partitions and
small hatchways make the task a diff
cult one. 1t is found bothersome
enough, even in drill maneuvers, to
lower well man down through two or
three decks, but when the excitement
of combat and the possible condition of
the patient are added, the work is
greatly complicated. The late war did
not afford sufficient experience to solve
the problem.

Domestic.

MAJ. GEN. MERRIAM has instructions
from Washington to erect hospital at
Honolulu and barracks for at least 1900
troops. First New York regiment consisting
OF 1900 men and 300 of the second
regiment volunteer engineers have been
sent as the first garrison on the island.
This force will be increased by the enlist
ment of battalion Of 400 men from Ha-
waiian military.
ONE Of the most disastrous fires that ever
visited Ogdensburg, n. Y, occurred last
Saturday night when the High Falls Sui
phate Pulp and Mining Company works
were burned. The fire originated in the
dryer and in an hour the Hugh Mill were
utterly consumed. The capital stock of the
company is $4,000 and bonded for same
amount in Potsdam. The loss will reach
100000. The mills were insured for $780,
600. The origin OF fire unknown.
THE war department has not yet made
out its list OF regiments to be mustered out
of service but has been in constant cor
respondence with the various sections of
the country upon the subject. AT first it
was thought that the demand to remain in
the service would prove embarrassing to
the department, but it is now believed there
has been a change in sentiment and that
the officers and men of the regiments that
see no possibility of further fighting are
willing to go back to their vocations.
THE steamer Belgc, which arrived at
San Francisco on Monday, brought the fol-
lowing graphic account Of the raising of the
American flag at Honolulu August II: pre-
cisely at eight minutes to twelve o'clock to-
day the Hawaiian flag decended from the
f1agstaffs on all the government buildings
and exactly at minutes to the same hour
the stars and stripes foated on the tropical
breeze from every official flagstaff. The
ceremony to-day was a most impressive
one. To hear the strains Of Hawaii
Ponoi," for the last time as national an
them to hear the bugle blow taps as the
Hawaiian ensign sank from its position and
to notice the emotion of many who had
been born under it and had lived their lives
under it was solemn. / ut then came the
bugle call for the raising of Old Glory, and
the strains of "The Star Spangled Banner
broke forth as that banner was unfurled to
the breeze. When the cheers broke forth
eyes that had been dim for a few min
utes became bright when the stars and
stripes blew out. The picture presented in
and around the executive building was
most striking. In the grounds and around
all the approaches were crowds of onlook-
ers, of varied nationality. Notably remark.
able was the number of Hawaiians With.
in the grounds the military and naval dis
play was fine Hawaiian troops, United
States marines, the mounted patrol, the pc
lice and the citizens guard presented a
splendid appearance"
