appearance from that which they pre-
sentcd "A week ago. All lhe wounded
have been removed 10 the hospital
ships. most OF which are on the way
north, aud not single one of the
wounded remained here. The SUR
gical department now is only busy
with the wounds of the prisoners, who,
once dressed. have been taken back to
ascparate camp.
Dlsease-lnf ected Buildings Burned tn the
Ground.
All the buildings and huts before oc-
cupied by the natives. where it was
possible that germs of disease lin.
gered. have been burned To the ground.
The debris has been removed. fresh.
clean tents have been spread. and
bitches have been dug around each to
carry away the rain.
Cubans Sent to separate Camp.
To-day Che last batch OF Cubans was
sent to u separate camp ten miles dis.
tant on hill. None of their baggage
or belongings has been left.
The pier has been extended beyond
the surf, making landing place for
supplies. The wounded are easy. Many
of those who were only slightly hurt
have virtually recovered, and are
ready to go to the front again. In the
meantime they are working about the

are excellent Water from mountain

is first carefully inspected in the med

in order that the clothing may be re-
moved and fumigated before the mar
enters the surgical hospital.

X. X. BILLS.
The Total Amount of indebtedness
Ranges From $500 to $500.

The KarnivaI Knights are now look
ing toward the settlement of their af-
fairs and figuring upon their deficit.
I think that we will be only about
$500 behind" said A. w. Dana, but it
is very hard to tell as many bills have
not been presented and several bills
have been presented that will not be
allowed. Until the bills are audited it
will be impossible to tell how we stand
but I do not think the deficit is as much
as was at first supposed"
The figures have been given as any
where from $500 to 500 that the Karni-
val knights owe. There is some money
belonging to the Knights that has not
yet been collected and when all the pro-
ceeds from the sale of buttons and
carnival ball tickets is in the Knights
may find themselves able to pay the
larger part of their bills. 1t is not the
intention of the Knights to repudiate
any of their bills but to pay them in
full and the next move on their pro-
gramme will be to raise the money with
which to do it.
