A Notable Meeting at
the Hospital Last
Evening.
The Address Of The Evening
Delivered BY Prof Vaughn Of The
University OF Miehtgan-Other
Local Events.

There was a notable gathering oil med
ieal men OF the two counties at the Calu-
met hospital last evening when Prof. Vic
tor c Vaughn, who is dean OF the depart
menr of medicine and surgery at the Uni
verslty OF Michigan and perhaps one OF
the most distinguished hygenic teachers
and writer's in the country today, vas
present and gave an address.
When it was known that DR.. Pomeroy
had made arrangements with DR.. Vaughn
to visit this city, the physicians OF the
county looked forward with pleasure to
the event and they were more than
pleased with the doctor and the able
paper he presented. Prof. Vaughn's sub
ject was The White Blood Corpuscle"
and the paper pronounced by all the
physicians as exceedingly interesting.
After the reading OF the paper general
discussion OF the subject by the physi-
clans was INDUCED in and after that the
wants OF the inner man were attended
to by Mine Host Jud p. North. OF the
Calumet Hotel, in very pleasing way.
Lemonade and ice water is said to have
been one OF the courses and the doctors
all say they never enjoyed an evening as
we'll for many day.
Beside the members OF the Calumet
staff, the other physicians practicing
about the city and the staff OF the Bige-
low syndicate of mines, there we're pres
ent Drs. McRae, OF Central; Hosking. OF
Allouez; Downer, Burnham and Neil
yeen, OF Hancock; Wheeler, Jones and
Mas, of Hougbton; Abrams, OF Dollar
Bay; Fischer and Orr. OF Lake Linden.
and Lunn, OF Marquette.
Dr.Vaughn arrived in the city on the
afternoon train yesterday aud is the
guest OF DR.. E. Fl. Pomeroy during his
stay. He was more than pleased with
the new hospital at Calumet and pro-
nounced it one OF the best equipped in the
country.

1T is NOT SAFE IN CUBA YET.
Season Not Far Enough Advanced t.
Send Troops There.

Washington, Oct. 22.-Reports receiv-
ed at the War Department from the
American military commissioners in Ha-
vana, indicate that the season has not
yet sufficiently advanced in Cuba to
make it even reasonably safe to send
any large number of American troops to
the island just now. According to the
last advices from General Wade, Presi-
dent of the American commission, it will
probably be December list before addi-
tional troops will be required in Cuba.
This statement in connection with the
assurances that the Spanish officials are
earnestly trying to complete the evacua-
ton of the island, has tended to reconcile
the authorities to a p0stpOnement of the
original date of the completion of the
evacuation month beyond the date
originally fixed upon. 1t is felt, how
ever, that there is 10 actual loss of
time upon this score, since the delay not
only affords opportunity to better ar
range and sift the troops i'll the United
States now being prepared for garrison
duty. but meantime the Hecker board,
now in Cuba selecting camp sites, will
be enabled to have almost every detail
of the camps arranged so that comfor-
table quarters win be in readiness when
the troops arrive.

Armistead Jones, Esq,

Raleigh, n. c.:
Dear Sir In answer to your inquiry
we would say that the Constitution of
North Carolina, Article 6, Sec. /, pro-
yidGs that every male person born in
the United States, and every male per-
son who has been naturaliZed, twenty
one years old and upwards, who shall
have resided in the State twelve months
next preceding the election, and ninety
days in the county in which he offers to
vote shall be deemed an elector. But
no person, who. upon conviction or con-
fcssion in open court, shall be adjudged
guilty of felony or any other crime infa-
nous by the laws of this State, and
hereafter committed, shall be deemed
an elector, unless such person shall be
restored to the rights of citizenship in
the manner prescribed by law"
The Constitution being the fundamen-
tai law of the State, it is very certain
that the Legislature has no power to de-
prive any one of the elective franchise
who is embraced within the above provi-
sions. Any act of the Legislature to
the contrary would, in our opinion, be
unhesitatingly pronounced null and void
by the Supreme court
The Constitution can only be amended
by Il vote of the people under the fol-
lowing provisions, article XIII, sections
/ and 2:
Section l. No convention of the people
of this State shall ever be called by the
General Assembly unless by the concur
renee of two-thrds of all the members
of each house of the General Assembly
and except the proposition, 'conyentitn
or no convention" be first submitted To
the qualified voters of the whole State, at
the next general convention III 4 mar
ner prescribed by law. And should a
majority of the votes cast be in favor
Of said convention, it shall assemble on
such day as may be prescribed by TIE
General Assembly.
Sec. >. No part of the Constitution of
this State shall be altered unless bill
to alter the same shall nave been
agreed to by three-fifths of each House
of the General Assembly. And tie
amendment or amendments so agreed 70
shall be submitted at the next general
election TO the qualified voters of the
whole State. in such a manner as may
be prescribed by law. And in the event
Of their adoption by a majority of the
votes east, such amendment or amend
ments shall become part of the Con-
stitution of this State.

MATANzAS is GRATEFUL.

Deep and Fervent Gratitude for Ameri-

Need.
Washington. ID. c., October 22.-One
OF the most fervent expressions OF graft
tude which has yet been uttered by the
residents of any of the Cuban communl-
ties that have fallen under the military
occupation of the United Government
was that addressed by the people of
Matanxas to the two officers of the Uni
red States army, Captain l.. Niles and
Major Albert Decatur Niskern, who Were
charged with the distribution of relief
supplies in that ADMINISTRATOR COM
munity. The text of the formal Fesolu-
ton of thanks as communicatedP to the
War Department is as followss

"Gentlemen-The 'Matanzas Central

pleasant duty of expressing to you the
gratitude of this city for the succor You
have brought us. The task is pleasant
and noble, indeed, but it is far above our
ability.
"Gentemen, you have had a good OPP
portunity to notice the difference there is
in MatanZas since your arrival. Previous
to it, crowds of men, women and children
wandered all over the city imploring
charity that we were not able to give.
and many were perishing in our streets,
Our hospitals and beneticient asylums
were unable to shelter the homeless and
Al fnp
poor and destitute, and to-day what a
contrast Everything seems to smile;
hunger is checked III its career of havoc,
and our hospitals have thrown their
doors open to the homeless. And beyond
this is the satisfaction of closing the
door to crime and to all the failingS into
which misery makes human weakness
fall. Thus, gentlemen, the relief you have
brought us is both material and moral.
I'm the name. then, of all those that
have been rescued from famine; III the
name of the city of Matanzas; in the
name of all that is holy and Christian,
we give heartfelt thanks to the American
people for their timely assistance which
is another link to the chain of love and
gratitude which already binds us to
them.
.On bidding you farewell it is our
earnest request that you convey to the
Government of the United States the
deep feelings of gratitude of the whole
city of Matanzas.
Very respectfully,
Your obedient servants.

The terms of yesterdays proposal are

gument will then follow and will carry
the matter possibly over to another
