The work cannot be adequately and

The Red Cross cannot do better service
than to furnish the necessary cooks. We
have the equipment, and need men and
women of the right sort to make use OF
it, We have in charge of our Second d.

been my privilege to meet. If he had men
as capable and willing as he, all would be

tary and inexcusable things are continu-
ally permitted The Red Cross furnished
500 buckets TO be placed at the side of cots
for repositories for offal; red band was
placed about each, and orders given that
none should be used for any other pur-
pose. But the amiable chief, seeing that
there was a lack of buckets for other pur-
poses. allowed this order to be disregard
ed, and so buckets used one day as re-
ceptacles for filth were used the next day
for drinking water.
when l called his attention TO this ma L

supply of buckets for other purposes. The
Red Cross sent twenty-four ice chests
with crooks for milk, the uses of which
were fully explained On visiting the
camp to see how they were placed they
were found distributed through one-thirt
of the wards, and not one of them fol

about this he said the matter was under
consideration, and would be attended tc
in a short time.
What is true here is true in many de-

Hence we have to deal with evils that the
money of the Red Cross can only lessen
but cannot remove. Yours very truly,

A KNEE-BREECHED MASCOT.
Fights With n Crack Regiment OF
San Juan Hill.

New York, Sept 23.-A veteran in knee
trousers is hard to find, but in Andrew
Lewis there is one Anxious to see the
front, the lad, who is only sixteen years
old, ran away from home and went to
Cuba as mascot of the Seventy-frst Regi-
ment.
Andrew halls from Lakeland Fla.
While the Seventy-first was stationed at
Lakeland Andrew often visited the camp
Col. Downs and his officers took such a
regimental mascot. An old uniform was
provided for him.
The night the Seventy-first received Or
ders to move to Tampa Andrew stole
from home and reached the Seventy first
camp just as the regiment had begun to
move. When the command was boarding
the transport Vigilancia the regular army
officers stopped the boy from going
aboard. He waited his chance and stole
on the ship.
He followed his regiment up San Juan
Hill while men were falling all round
him. While the fight was raging Andrew
was up a. the firing line, rolling cigarettes
The officers tried to drive him back, but
it was of no use. He slept in the San
tiago trenches and endured al the hard
ships of the campaign. He also helped
the hospital corps in taking care of the
wounded and dying. Andrew came North
with the regiment and parade1 up Broa l.
way to it's armory. He is now stopping
at Major Whittle's home at Mt. Vernon.

Lillian Russell Hopes for Divorce
From PeruGIni.

From PeruEIni.
New York, Sept. 23.-All the lawyers en-
gagged in the divorce suit of John Chatter
ton, otherwise Signor Perugini, against
Lillian Russell met in the Office OF Special
Master in Chancery Washington B. Will
liams, in Jersey City. yesterday. 1t was
expected that several witnesses called by
Miss Russell would be heard, but to the
surprise of Signor Perugini and his friends
Mr.. Minturn, counsel for Miss Russell,
asked for an adjournment. He said he
would like to have "A weeks delay, when
he would either present his evidence or
make a statement in relation to the case.
Mr. Williams granted the application,
but said that unless the testimony for
the defendant Were then presented he
would advise a decree in Signor Perugini s
favor on the ground of desertion. Miss
Russell brought a counter suit on the
ground of cruelty, but no evidence to that
effect has yet been offered by her. Mr..
Williams said that if Miss Russell allowed
the testimony given by Signor Perugini
Digby Bell, Miss Ellsworth and Mrs. Kate
Byron to go uncontradicted he would
have no option in the matter
An actress, who was present to give tes-
timony on behalf of Miss Russell, to
whose company she formerly belonged
but who declined to have her name used
before she had been placed on the stand
made a brief statement after the ad-
journment. She said she received a letter
last week from Miss Russell. In it the
writer said she would not oppose her hus-
bands suit. and said:
II am we'll out of this silly marriage, II
he gets a divorce, and / hope he will.
haven't the slightest regard for him. He
is only baby. Poor dear! His friends
ought to hire a nurse for him or make
him a captain In the Salvation Army"
When Signor Perugini was told what his
wife had said he laughed.

And earn their need OF praise,
And in the lighting tops" they tell
OF heroes true and brave,
But down below the water line
The stokers, too, / ween,
Are worthy of the poets rhyme
For keeping up the steam.
On deck the fighters bravely work
Mid bursting shot and shell,
And down below no stokers shirk.
But do their duty well.

Each has his duty, tits seen,
And the stokers, too. the battle fight
