ENLISTING ARMY COOKS.
To Be Subjected to q Medical Exam.
inatfOn-Must Show Their
Ability to Cook.

A general order has been issued by
the war department governing the en-
listment of army cooks, under the pro-
visions of the act of congress July z.
Candidates for these positions are to
be subjected to the required medical
examination for enlisted men, and ex-
amined as to their knowledge of meth
DDS and skill in caring for, preparin g
and serving food, particularly as to
the experience they have had in cook
ing for large bodies of men. Candi-
dates are also to be required to give
practical exhibitions of their ability
to cook, and none will be enlisted I'M
less the recruiting officers are satisfied
they are competent to perform the du-
ties inquired of them. Only one cook is
authorized by law Tor each company,
troop or battery, and the commanding
officer of each organization will super
wise the cooking and messing of his
men. An enlisted man already in the
service and desiring to serve as a cook
may be appointed and rated as such
upon his own application if he is sufii-
GENTLY proficient
Commissary General Eagan has long
advocated the enlistment of army
cooks, and is pleased at the prospect
of his views being put into practical
effect.

LESSONS FROM SANTIAGO.
Campaign Shows That Coast Defense:
Are More Effective Than
Warships.

The military and naval experts say
that several important lessons in ord
nance and Notifications are furnished
by the campaign against Santiago. 1t
is pointed out That the long conten-
lions between the relative merits OF
land Notifications and naval ships as
a means Of coast defense have received
much light by recent operations. When
Admiral Sampsonwas chief of the ord
nance bureau Of the navy department
he held that most effective means of
defending coasts was by means of war
ships rather than coast defenses. 1t
is said, however, that the Spanish de-
Tense of Santiago harbor has demon
strated that coast defenses are even
more effective than warships. The
batteries Of Moro castle, Sacopa and
the others, aided by the mining and
torpedoing of the harbor, was effective
in preventing the American feet from
entering the harbor, and this, despite
the fact that the Spanish guns were in
no sense fortifcation armament. It is
said by some Of the experts that if
MORO had possessed the large modern
fertilization guns, such as those pro-
tecting New York or Boston, it would
have been able not only to have defend
ed Santiago but to have done serious
damage to the attacking feet.

A Unique Craft.

The yacht, Do, owned by Charles
Ruggles, of Chicago, arrived here Thurs
day afternoon and continued his journey
down the shore Friday morning. Of
this unique craft the Two Harbors News
gives the following descriptions:
"The Do is not simply pleasure boat,
but was built to further a ph1lanthropic
work of it's owner. He is a man Of
wealth, interested in salt manufacturing,
railroads and pine lands, and discoverer
of one of the best methods to drive sat-
isfaction from money. His yacht is 35
feet long, 9 feet beam, and draws four
feet. It's upper works are of heavy can
vas, SO placed as to keep out the water,
and in high sea assist in maintaining
an even keel. The interior is marvel
of comfort and utilization of space.
Not an inch is lost, There is fine re-
frigerator, we'll stocked, which also is
used as dining table. A pantry, iron
and wood working tools, and other me-
cessities are provided in lockers under
the seats. The ingenuity displayed
everywhere for the safety and comfort
of those aboard is surprising. A full
description would require too much
space. She is propelled by a gasoline
engine or sails. A log is kept and all
the general practices aboard ship OBJ
served.
''The crew consists of from three to
four boys, whom the owner teaches how
to live right by making a good living
and observing creditable conduct. He
will not receive boy for pay, but is
looking out for poor boys who, might
otherwise be lost. If boy has manly
stuff in his make up he knows how to
find and cultivate it. His work is both
practical and grand. s.,. '.~s.-. 81
* ""The Do is built for ocean cruising as
we'll as lake, and has cruised along the
entire Atlantic and Gulf coast, and the
principal rivers of the country"

FIGHTING JOE" WHEELER.
A Sketch of the Man Who Will Lead
the Cuban Invasion.

Gen. Fighting Joe" Wheeler is one
of the most notable characters in con-
gress. The characteristics of the lit
tie warrior congressman are his won
derful and unvarying celebrity and
agility of legs, hands and tongue. AS
in war he was his own courier, so as
congressman he is frequently his own
messenger. A friend of Wheeler one
day remarked to an inquiring stranger,
who had observed the general bound
ing down a fight of steps and sprint
ing toward an approaching street car:
That's Gen. Joe Wheeler. He never
walks when he can ride or rum"
He is without peer in congress as
working member. He is one Of the
kindest men in public life, was never
known to refuse a favor or say an
uncharitab1e word even of political
opponent. This trait has given him
a wide range of popularity in and out
of congress. Yet with all his amiabil-
ity and simple readiness to do good
for others his courage was never ques-
toned, nor his patriotism ever doubt
ed. AS youthful commander OF all
the cavalry of the Confederacy he
made the stars and bars dreaded
battle flag. Gen. Wheeler entered
congress in 1880 and has been reflect
ed continuously ever since. It is not
doubted that he could be returned as
often as he decided to be candidate.
He was unseated in the forty-sev-
enth congress as a result of contest
by William M. Lowe, a greenbacker.
Lowe died a few weeks after being
seated and Gen. Wheeler was elected
to fill the unexpired term, and since
that time his service in the house
has been uninterrupted. He has
served during five congresses as senior
democratic member of the committee
on military affairs; was chairman OF
territories and is now prominent
of the ways and means COM
mittee. He always had charge OF the
academy bills. While serv-
ing on territories he reported the bills
for the admission of Utah, Arizona
and New Mexico as states.
The most important bill with which
Gen. Wheeler was ever connected
was that for the relief of Gen. F'1tz-
hugh Porter. He drew the bill and
engineered it through the house and
the senate passed it without amend
ment. When Gen. Wheeler first be-
became a member of the house there
we're in congress twenty-seven mem
bers who had served under him dur
ing the civil war. Among these now
in congress are Senator John I.
Morgan and Representatives Maddox
IF Georgia, Meyer of Louisiana and
Catchings of Mississippi. A close
has long time existed
between Gen. Wheeler and Gen. Scho-
field, late commander of the army.
Gen. Schofield was Gen. Wheeler's in
structor at West Point, when the lat
ter was a cadet at the military acad-
envy. Gen. Robert e. Lee said the
two ablest cavalry officers developed
by the war we're Gen. j. ID. B. Stuart
and Gen. Joseph Wheeler.

THE WAGING OF WAR.
Rules Of International Law That
Govern It.

A great writer on the laws of ma
| lions begins his monumental work
on International Law with the frank
admission: There is no internation-
al law" The reason there is no such
law that is binding on the nations is
found in the fact that only signers are
bound by any international agreement.
Any Of these may retire whenever
such agreement seems to clash with
her interests. There is no power ex-
cept the sword to hold them. AS
Crispi, the great Italian statesman,
said the other day: 'The European
concert is only sinister joke
The fact seems to be that the sup
posed individual interests of nations
clash too seriously to permit Of any
fixed understanding among them.
This point and the usual methods
employed in modern times for settling
disputes between relatively civilized
nations were clearly employed In
the contention between the United
States and Great Britain at the close
of our civil war.
The English government had for
mally pledged itself to neutrality in
the war, but allowed the Confederates
to fit out the steam cruiser Alabama
in one of its ports. The Alabama
committed widespread depredations
on American commerce When the
war was over the government at
Washington sent England bill to
cover the damages, at the same time
making threat of war in case the
notification to settle was ignored.
England knew we meant business,
and decided that it was better and
cheaper to pay for the Alabama's ex-
cursions than to risk war. The
commissioners of both nations met at
Geneva, Switzerland, to arbitrate the
differences between the two peoples
All the international law in the
world was of little value. 1t was
simply matter of reaching basis Of
settlement to avoid war, and com
premise figure of $15,OOO,OOO was
agreed on, which England paid. Sc
in the present contest between this
country and Spain There is abso-
lutely no provision in internationa
law which would authorize the United
States to interfere in the extermina-
ton of the Cubans. For the sake Of
humanity we step in to make might
right. When the sword is drawn anC
the battleships fall into line interna-
tional law slumbers.
