one account of HobsOn at the Me-
tropolitan Opera House, New York,
on the evening o: the 4th. runs in
part thus:
..Lieutenant Hobson delighted his
audience and discovered the posses
sion of an entirely unexpected talent
by proving himself to be an orator OF
much dramatic force. For more than
half an hour he held the audience
spell-bound, while in the simplest
language and with few gestures, but
with wonderful force and pathos, he
told the story OF his exploit in the
harbor of Santiago. Throughout he
made no reference to the part borne
by himself, almost the whole OF his
thrilling story being devoted to a
| eulogv of his gallant companions.
This young man comes honestly by
| the ..talcntn and ..force' with which
! he is accredited above-they are
| gifts by inheritance. But that which
| is most to be admired about him is
the rare and beautiful modesty which
he exhibited in this speech and which
| has marked his conduct and his con
versation ever since his release in

day, but a fine fellow who will veal

Doctors niStakeS.

Many women call on their family ply
SicianS, suffering. as they imagine, one
from dyspepsia, another from heart disease,
another from liver or kidney disease,
another from exhaustion or prOstratiOn,
another with pain here and there, and in
this way they all present, alike to them
selves and their easy-going and indiffer-
ent, or over-busy doctor, separate and dis
tinct diseases. for which he prescribes his
pills and potions assuming them to be
such. when, in reality, they are all only
symptoms caused by some womb disorder.
The physician ignorant of the cause of suf-
fering, encourages his ''practice" until
large bills are made. The suffering patient
gets no better. but probably worse, by
reason of the delay, wrong treatment and
consequent complications. A proper medi-
cine, like DR.. Perce'S FavOrite Prescrip-
ton, directed to the cause would have en-
tirely removed the disease, thereby dis
polling all those distressing symptoms,
and inStituting comfort instead of pro-
longed misery. This medicine enables a
sensitive. modest woman to avoid the I'M
necessary physician examinations" and
his generally useless and stereoty pc d

Vulcan and Potomac Ordered to
Search For Derelict.

Washington, Nov. S-A message re-
ceived at the navy department today
from Captain Crowninshield, chief of
the navigation bureau, who is in New
York, called attention TO the report
that the Spanish cruiser Maria Teresa
had been seen off Cat island. The cap
tain expressed his belief in the ac-
curacy of the report and suggested
TO the department that the repair ship
Vulcan, now at Norfolk, be sent to
make search for the derelict The de-
partment acted at once upon the Sug-
gestion. A telegram was sent to the
commandment of the Norfolk navy
yard directing him to place the Vulcan
in command of Captain McCalla, the
captain Of the yard, and send her with
all dispatch to look for the Teresa A
similar order was cabled to Captain
Converse at Guantanamo directing
him to send the wrecking tug Potomac
from that place northWard on the same
quest. She goes in charge of ]. E.
Craven, and the department believes
that she will be in the vicinity of Cat
island within SO hours. The Vulcan
was one of the vessels which was tow
ing the Teresa when she was supposed
to have foundered and the department
believes that she will reach the scene
of the wreck in about As hours after
leaving Norfolk.
Cat island lies about 80 miles south
east of the spot where the Teresa was
last seen, and it is said at the depart
ment if the vessel did not founder out
right within very few hours. after
having been cut adrift, she would al
most certainly have fetched I'D on the
shoal beach off Cat island, for the wind
and the tide set directly on that beach.
If so, the location is much more favor
able for saving the ship than the posi-
ton occupied by her off Santiago,
where the bottom was covered with
rocks and the wreckers worked at great
disadvantage. Captain McCalla was
selected for the task because of his
great energy and ability for this par
ticular task of work and the officers
declare that if any man can bring the
I Teresa into port he can.
/ 1t is the belief of naval constructors
I that the Teresa took water aboard al
! most altogether through the decks, and
not through the hull, as would appear
/ from the first accounts of the loss OF
! the ship. These decks were rude tenn
/ porary constructions and were entirely
unsuitable for rough weather. The
/ fact that the reports indicate that the
shin settleu by the head and that
water ran into the coal bunkers and
: thence into the firerooms goes to bear
! out the constructors theory. 1t also
tends to give color to the report that
the ship may not have foundered al
once, but have drifted ashore on Cat
! island. 1t is presumed that the wreck
| ing company which had the vessel in
| hand Will take immediate steps to re-
cover the ship if possible, in order tc
secure the large salvage which was al
most within it's grasp when the shiT
was cast Off
