A New York Central Innovation.

George H Daniels, of the New York Gen.
trail & Hudson River Railroad has made an
announcement which is of a rather startling
nature, but 1t is one which ought to please
the patrons Of that great system and particu-
larry those who travel mileage books. The
circular reads as follows " =
Mileage books, good for 300 miles and 1000
miles travel, are now on sale at all stations
on the New York Central divisions and

available for passage on the main line of the
New York Central and of all it's branches and
divisions, including the Harlem, Putnam,
Rome, Watertown & Ogdensburg, Carthage &
Adirondack, Geneva & Lyons and the Adj
rondack Utica to MontreaD divisions.
Mileage books will be Issued in the name
Of the head of family or firm. and will be
available for the use of any member OF such
family or for any traveller forta firm. provided
the name Of such member or traveller is writ
ten in the book by the agent seli- in the
place designated. They will be red for

If the holder of such ticket desires to ride

CAPT. JOSEPH HALE is DEAD
POPULAR OFFICER OF THIRD REG
INTENT SUCCUMBS TO TYPHOID
After Fighting Throughout the Gu
ban Campaign-A Soldier
and a Hero.

The sad news Of the death Of Capt. Joseph
Hale, Company G, Third infantry, was re-
ceived at Fort Smelling yesterday. Capt.
Hale participated in the Santiago campaign
with his regiment, and there contract d
malarial fever. as did hundreds Of oher
brave soldiers. He has since been nurS ed
in a hospital in New York city. He was
about sixty years OF age. He served in the
Civil war, and afterwards joined the regular
army, with which he has been connected
ever since.
Capt. Hale. who was a major by brevet,
was the ranking captain OF the regiment,
and would have been promoted within =
very few months He was perhaps the best
beloved officer Of the regiment, popular alike
with his fellow officers and the enlisted men.
''There isn't better officer Of his years in
the army Col. Clague used to say, and
his name was never spoken but it called for
an enthusiastic eulogy from the colonel.
He was modest. courageous and courteous,
and the very embodiment Of chivalric hon
esty and integrity. Capt. Hale was a mem
Der OF the Minnesota commandery of the
Loyal Legion, and was often present at the
meetings.
The only surviving member Of the dead
soldiers family is a daughter, who is the
wife of First Lieut. Smith, Company B. The
remains will likely be inferred in New York.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 13-After devoting the
forenoon to hearing the testimony of DR..
Hoff, a chief surgeon of the Third army
corps, stationed at Camp Thomas, the war
investigating committee gave the remainder
of today to the reading of papers submit
ted by Secretary Alger, with his statement
concerning the conduct of the war. The
documents reveal the fact that Gen. Niles
recommended the occupation Of the Isle Of
Pines about the time Of the battle of San
tiago, and that Secretary Alger disapproved
the suggestion. 1t also appears that Gen,
Miles recommended that some point between
Santiago and Porto Rico be taken previous
to the beginning of either campaign. The
correspondence also developed the fact that
there was an apparent conflict of auth ority
between Gen. Miles and Gen. Shafter at
Tampa, before the Santiago campaign was
inaugurated.
1t also shows that orders were issued by
the secretary of war that in the event that
Gen. Shafter should be disabled by sickness
or other cause, the command of the troops
at Santiago should deVove upon Gen. Wheel
er, and upon the next in command in case OF
the disability of both Shatter and Wheeler.
DR.. Hof said the capacity of the division
hospitals often doubled and trebled. 1t
sometimes occurred that there were eight
men in tents which were intended to accom-
modate six, but there was delay in securing
tentage to for the increase o; disease,
which was Unexpectedly rapid. On one or
two occasions patients were necessarily placed
in beds made upon the floors, because Of a
temporary deficiency in cots. AS a rule the
nurses were without training, and this fact
occasioned some difficulty in dealing with
typhoid cases. Yet he knew Of specific
cases of suffering on this account. He spec
flied the case Of a afflicted with in
fictitious disease who had been compelled to
lie in the open air one night on account OF
the lack of tentage. The captain was sure
that no injury resulted, the weather was
pleasant.
DR.. Hoff said that the shortage in medical
supplies had continued for several weeks
but there was generally sufficient to meet
the immediate demands. He also said that
some acquisitions had been returned by the
Washington authorities because improperly
filed, and he was under the impression that
there had been complaints of some SUD ring
on this account. There was considerable de-
lay in securing flooring for the tents.
WAS there any deprivation on account of
the shortage of tents?" asked Gov. Wood
bury.
"It was so reported" responded Dr. Hoff.
'FWhose fault was it?'' was asked
'fNot mine," he replied. 81 did all that
could do"

They may not think they have dys-

DR.. Harlandson says the reason is be-
cause the stomach lacks certain diges-

Natures remedy in such cases Is to

ed business men who wish to secure
an Institute for their locality during
the winter season of 1898-99 should
send to this Office for blank petition
and letter of information. Any town,
no matter how small or how far from

tute, provided it is located in a farm

which meeting can be held.
The Institutes of 1897-98 were well
attended and more interest was mani
tested than ever before. A mum Der
of towns also held a Mid-winter Fair
in connection with the Institute.
From the correspondence and large
number of petitions, now reaching

of them a War Department
official said that it was found neces-
sary to build new wharf at Tampa,
it having been discovered that the old
ones were not strong enough to get the
heavy siege guns that Gen. Shafter
took with him aboard the ships. The

Red Cross Relief Entertainment.

The ladies of Hudson, having
organized a Red Cross Society, are
working to raise funds for the pur-
chase of necessary articles for 1.-THE
boys" who have enlisted from Pierce
and ST. Croix counties. They have
received official orders to furnish
these necessities and desire to send
them before the troops leave Chicka-
manga. Having no funds to purchase
material, the ladies of Hudson pro-
pose to give an entertainment in
River Falls, in Opera Hall, on Friday
June 18th.
It is hoped that the people of River
Falls and vicinity will heartily CO.
operate with these ladies, who are
trying to help our own boys, many of
whom have no mothers or sisters to
provide these comforts for them.
