Getting at the Facts.

William f. Curtis, the we'll known
journalist, has been making inquiries
on his own account into the conditions
at Montauk Point and chief among the
causes of trouble he places the intense
jealousy which prevails among the diff
ferent branches of the service. "The
medical men," says he, hate the COM
missaries, and both hate the quarter
masters, who reciprocate with feryor,
other in the hole The system is worse
than the men. The red tape that is re-
quired in every transaction, no matter
how insignificant, entangles the whole
camp. For example, when a surgeon
calls for food the commissary should
supply it and the quartermaster pro-
vide for its transportation. Between
the three there are innumerable requisi-
tions, Endorsements, permits, authori-
cations and all that sort of thing,
which take time and patience. For eX-
ample, when a lot of soldiers left a
transport the other day they were so
weak they could not walk, and brandy
was called for The supply happened
to be very low and the surgeon made a
requisition for more. The requisition
had to go through the usual circum-
locution, and it took three days to get
the brandy out of the storehouse. In the
meantime the soldiers might have died
had 1t not been for the Red Cross peo-
pie, who furnished all that was neces-
SnrU in five
He gives another example: Miss
Helen Gould gave Mrs. Ellen Hardin
Walworth $4,000 the other day to be
used at her discretion, and Mrs. Wal
worth decided that nothing was needed
more than a diet kitchen. She started
the wheels in motion, sent to New
York for trained cooks and materials,
and they were on the grounds three
days before she could get a permit to
erect her building. General Alger
found men lying on the floor in the
hospitals although there were carloads
of cots at the railway station,a mile and
a half way. 1t was explained that the
hospital authorities could not get them
out because they had no means of
transportation, and yet within plain
| sight were thirty or forty empty wag-
ons standing In line waiting TO be load
ed with wood for the regiment kitch-
ems. More than 200 men were without

would any advances he might have
made for war? Time alone can tell.
II France does not accept the disarma-
ment proposals, neither will Germany,
nor Austria nor Italy. But Great Brit

on the eastern question on the basis

conditions which he deplores as due
to the incubus of militarism in Europe
will be relieved to certain extent,
and at least the air will be clarified

The Educational Problem in Cuba.

The fact has already been noted that
General Wood has made arrangements
to open public schools in Santiago next
month on the American plan. This
idea involves the key to the successful
pacification of cuba.
According to a report issued by the
Spanish government in 1890 and cover
ing the year 1SSS-9-this being the lat
est official information available-less
than 2E per cent. of the inhabitants of
Cuba attended public schools during
any portion of the year. and, including
pupils in private schools the percentage
was only 3A per cent, or less than one
third the attendance in the public
schools of Spain itself, which is little
enough, goodness knows. Commission
er of Education Harris has compiled
for the New York Tribune a table
which makes clear the need of more
and better free schools in Cuba:

BEEFsTEAK WILL STAY.
From the Philadelphia Bulletin.

Professor Lilienfeld, a European scien-
tist, declares that he has discovered a
process by which albumen, which is the
essential elements in heterogeneous foods,
can be cheaply and readily produced by
artificial means, and his assertion has
aroused keen interest among chemists
and physicians abroad. The widest the
ories as TO the revolution in feeding the
world which may be expected to follow
are being broached by enthusiasts. Some
unbalanced persons are confidently pre-
dieting that the day is close at hand when
the cook and kitchen range will be ban
ished and humanity will so about with
it's dinner in the form OF tablet in its
pocket.
The London Lancet, whose right to
speak with authority on such matters Is
undisputed. pithily remarks that. even If
all that Lilienfeld says is true, no phys
iologist or sensible man is prepared to be-
lieve that practical food conditions will
be radically altered. 1t declares that lit
is absurd to think that the time will come
when we shall carry about complete
meal or a dietetic outfit for a day in the
shape of thimbleful OF powder, Ami
mai economy requires other things and
attributes besides the mere elements con-
cerned in making good the waste tissues
in the body"
This is not the first time that faddists
and cranks have prophesied that man S
| old-fashioned diet of fish, flesh, fowl,
vegetables and fruits was about TO pass
| away. Attempts to find substitutes for
the ordinary foods of civilization have
been persistent in the past; but they have
all failed. Various European govern
| ments, in the hope of getting rid of the
cumbrous supply trains which necessarily
accompany an army on It's march, have
experimental with compressed foods
which learned gentlemen have described
as containing all the elements required
| to sustain life. 1t has been found pos
sible for men to retain their health and
strength for a few days on these CON-
pounds; but prolonged trials have in
variably resulted in illness and collapse
| on the part of the consumers.
Nature will not be cheated out of all
her secrets. No matter how diligently
| scientists may seek to pry into the al
| chemy by which she evolves food for
humanity, the supreme knowledge eludes
| them. The stomach requires bulk, as
we'll as nutriment, for the processes ci
| digestion. The palate must be pleased
with food, or the system, under normal
conditions, rejects 1t. Mankind will still
| continue to crave and devour the juicy
beefsteak. the succulent oyster, the ape
| tizng roast fowl and all the varieties OF
food which the experience of generations
commends. There is no danger that good
cooks will lose their Jobs.
