Besmirching a Memory.

Lieutenant Richmond = :iobsaI.
the American who riskcd his life in
sinking the collier Merrimac in the
entrance to Santiago harbor, is
making profound and indubitable
fool of himself in his attitude toward
the female sex. The country is weary
ing of Lieutenant Hobson's inanity.
He is dragging the memory of his
heroic deed in the dust. That he
risked his life for his country was
noble, but seven other Americans did
the same and are scarcely heard of.
vhile seven million other Anne leans
would have done the same and given
their rigtt Gr'1 fcr tkC chance. Th"
American ration hopes that one oil
two things viii occur presently. either
that uobson marries some sensible
American woman who vii put sum
mary period 10 his promiscuous amor
BUSINESS, or that some outraged Amer
lean husband or brother hands Hob
son 4 good stiff punch on the jaw that
will have the effect OF waking him
