Be careful and make no mistake when
you go to vote. The ballot this year has
been changed, and unless the voter
! uses the greatest care in marking his
ballot, he will be voting for the man he
does not want. Last election the ballot
Was printed with circle before the
name of the candidate, and you had to
make the X in that circle, but this year
the ballot is printed with square after
the name Of the candidate, and your X
must be made inside of that square. In
order to vote for the candidate of your
choice, you make your X inside the
square FOLLOWING the name of the can
didate-not BEFORE the name. Re-
member this.

GOES TO BAR HARBOR.
Mrs W. C. Whitney Travels in Spe-
cially Constructed Conveyances.

New York, July 25.-Made comfort
able by every cOntrivance which mod
ern medical science and ingenuity has
devised, Mrs. William c. Whitney
started on her journey from her cOun-
try home at ROslyn, L. L, to Bar Har-
Dor, where the doctors have advised her
to pass the remainder of the summer.
She was accompanied by her husband
and her attending physician and nurs-
es.
Mrs Whitney was taken to the sta
ton of the Long Island railroad in a
carriage specially constructed for the
journey. It is fitted with pneumatic
tires and has folding doors opening in
the rear like an ambulance, admitting
a cot with a pneumatic cushion in
place of a mattress. A special car
was at the station. She was lifted in
to it tenderly.
At Long Island City the car was run
on a ferrybOat and carried up the river
to Port Morris. where it was put on
the tracks of the New Haven railroad.
The journey to Bar HarbOr will be
made in short stages in order to IA
tigue the invalid as little as possible.
Mrs. Whitney suffered no i'll effects
from the journey to Port Morris.

WOUNDS EASY TO HEAL.
Army Surgeon Explains Effect OF
Mauser Bullets.

Washington, July 25.-Lieutenant
Colonel Charles Smart, surgeon VINO
was with the army before Santiago, mas
returned, and gives the following eX-
PLANTATION of the effect OF the Mauser
bullet:
THE Mauser bullets used by the
Spaniards in the battles We have had
in Cuba. make what surgeons call a
humane wound They drop the man
at the time he is struck and take him
from the firing line; but if they do not
kill him then and there he gets Vel.
"Of all the men wounded IN General
Skaters command I have heard of on
ly one case Of an amputatiOn of limb
as the result of a bullet wound. The
amputatiOns made there have followed
a wound by a bursting shell, where the
bone had been shattered.
1.-The Mauser bullet does not leave q
wound nearly so difficult to heal as DO
the bullets used in the Springfield rifle
During the civil war, when man was
shot through the lungs by a bullet from
a Springfield rifle he was almost sure
to die in a. few days or few months
from consumption or pneumonia or
some other affection brought on by the
wound. The Mauser bullet will pass
through the lungs and the patient Will
recover. It does not crush bones so
that amputatiOns are necessary. A
wound made by such a bullet, II II does
not affect a vital part, heals as readily
as would a slight cut
when the medical history OF the war
is written" continued Colonel Smart,
at will show the most remarkable re-
suits ever achieved in antiseptic treat
ment of wounds. Every regiment ex-
cept one under General Shafter was
provided with a small package marked,
First Aid to the Wounded This
package was carried in the hip pocket
by all the men. This was extremely
fortunate, because after the transports
discharged their passengers they sailed
away somewhere with the medicine
chests on them. When a, soldier was
Sl1.r1 a
first aid package carried by the SOL
der himself and, applying it to the
wound, completed the bandaging then
and there This antiseptic treatment
caused the wound to heal without the
formation Of pus and has shown Won
derful results

GOOD THINGS FOR BOYS.
Frozen Beef and Bottled Beer on the
Watermelon for Schley.

New York, July 25.-Bearing all sorts
OF good cheer not specifically included
IN her sailing orders, the refrigerator
snip Supply sailed from this port to
Join SIMPSONS fleet. OF both the SOL
id and substantial foods, and the lux
ur1eS uncOnSidered by the navy depart
ment, the Supply carried a very large
assortment, and, owing to the refrig-
Grating arrangements, everything is
sure to get to it's destination in good
condition. She has been ten days load
ing.
In those parts of the hold not spec
tally fitted out are piled the hardtack
canned goods, etc, which do not spoil
in warm temperatures. a large space
in the hold has been made into the
refrigerating room, and it is here that
the meats are carried, not merely kept
cool, but actually frozen stiff. The
temperature of the room is IS degrees.
The men who have been working in it
during the heat of the past week have
been obliged to exercise extreme care
in going from the outer air in to the
icy temperature.
In this refrigerating room are 100, 900
pounds of beef, all in hind quarters,
the largest of which weighs 312 pounds.
They were shipped from Chicago in re-
frigeratOr cars, which required four re-
lays of ice between the two cities, and
when they reached the navy yard they
were frozen to the consistency of hard
wood. In this condition they were
swiftly transferred to the cold room.
There are also other meats kept in
this room, but the beef is the stable.
The contractors who furnished it say
that it was sold at the lowest price ev-
er paid for first quality beef in this
country, and that their profit is entire
ly from the hides and bones. The meat
is, of course, supplied by the navy de-
partment.
There are 500 barrels in the cold room
not thus supplied. They contain bot
tied beer, and the Supply's officers, who
came up with her from Santiago not
long ago, say that if value is measured
by the intensity of demand iced beer
is worth about $1,000 a bottle down
there.
Ranged in long rows. on cakes of ice,
are thirty luscious watermelons, bought
by the officers as special presents for
their friends in the fleet. One of them
is for Commodore SchIey. There are
also unnum bered packa ges of tobacco
and boxes of cigarettes going to places
where smoking material is scarce.

Naval victory at Santiago.

On the morning of July 8, about $50,
the Spanish fleet tried to escape from
the harbor of Santiago, where it had
been bottled up by the American war
ships.
In a remarkably short space of time
after the Spanish ships were sighted,
every gun on the American battle
ships was manned and loaded and the
gunners ready for the word Fire
which would mark the beginning of the
battle. They had not long to wait, for
it took but a few minutes for the Span
ish cruisers to pass in single file the
wreck of the Merrimac, clear the har-
Dor, and dash for the open sea to the
westward. Pouring hail of shot and
shell the American ships closed in upon
them.
The well-trained American gunners
sent shot after shot surely and unspar-
ingly into the fleeing foe. In half an
hour half the Spanish fleet had been de-
stroyed, and in a little over an hour
the battle was finished, and CerVera'S
fleet a thing of the past.
We reproduce, with permission, a pic
ture from the issue of Harper's Weekly
for July %, showing the forward turret
of the battle-ship Iowa in action during
the destruction of Cervera's feet.
A u Inch projectile, sent with uner-
ring aim from the IOWa's forward tur-
ret struck and set fire to the flagship
Maria Theresa, the first of the Spanish
ships destroyed. Another 12-incher from
the Iowa crashed into the bow of the
leading much-talked-of torpedo boat
destrOyers, and caused her to turn
towards the shore wreck.
The Iowa then steamed to assist the
Oregon, Texas, and Brooklyn in their
chase after the remaining Spanish ships
but by the time she caught up with
them the battle was over. With the
same energy displayed in destroying
SPANS vessels, the Americans manned
their small boats and rescued the Span
ish sailors from their burning vessels.
