seph N. Miller. who hoisted the American
flag over Hawaii on Aug. IL last. will be
retired next Tuesday. after spending II
years In active service. Admiral Miller

viewed, Admiral Miller said:

us, both from a strategical and CONNER
cial point of view. h will be more APP
parent when the Nicaraguan canal has
been constructed, which i am sure VIII
be within 10 years.
From my experience on the 1sthmus OF
Panama I was formerly of the opinion
that IL an inter-oceanic canal was ever
constructed Il would be on the line OF
the Panama railroad. But further infor-
nation has convinced me that the most
practicable route Is through. Nicaragua.
and I further believe that the canal VIII
be built. constructed and controlled by
the United States and without interven-
ton or the assistance of any foreign
power

A. To be good. To obey the laws Of
God.
Q. Anything else?
A. Believe in the truth and live 1t.
Q. Anything else?
A. That keeps you pretty busy.
Q. What charge did you make?
A. We ask q shillings a week for
treatment.
Q. And you have two sorts Of treat
ment. Have you not absent treatment
as well as personal treatment?
A. Yes. but they are all one thing.
God inc Gods minds are one and the
same thing: God is always present.
q. Is there any limit 10 the number
Of patients you car treat at the same
time?
A. We do not limit God. He is inf
mite and He is good. He Is a living
we reflect Him.
Q. Then what you do for anyone
they could do for themselves?
A. Yes. IL they read the Bible.
Q. Is IL part of your creed to call In
medical aids?
A. / have never done so.
@. Surprising II Is a broken leg?

Now the cable brings the news that
both Miss Kate Lyon. who occupied
with Frederic for nine years the place
whence she had thrust his wife. and Mrs.
Mills have been indicted for manslaugh-
ter. It will probably go hard with them
for English Justice is exceedingly Sc
we're. Moreover. the London prosecu-
tors seem determined to drive the
Christian Scientists out OF the land.
Two convictions for manslaughter have
been secured against a father and
mother who called In q faith healer to
cure a child that died under this mode
Of treatment, hen proper medical care
obviously would have saved IT,.
The London newspapers edttoriaily
oppose any verdict that might mar

glad TO see them recognized. Macon
Russell was formerly first sergeant Of
my company in the 25th. He was one
OF the most soldierly men in the entire

great daring. I Ia him the other day

to the vital points. Definite notice will be
given that the United States will take

more than likely that the Americans Will
natly summon Spain to effect immediate
amicable adjustments. Should she re-

Tentative for America will be the con-
quest Of that territory at an increased
cost to Spain in the final settlement. and
possibly with the loss of Spanish life. IL
may be held that the Philippines. IL ceded

quate indemnity to the United States for
their war expenses already incurred ana
tina Spain ann expect as a legal or
moral right any monetary concessions.
Philippine acquisition by conquest. how

a treasure greater than a sum that Spain
may now accept as the basis of peaceful

Spain, being barren of territory or
cash to indemnify the United States. even
at this juncture. she would be stnl less
able to meet an additional expense to the
Americans in further operations in the
