| EXTRACTS from letter written by James
r. Judd son of the Chief Justice,
while engaged in Red Cross work
on the S. S. Lampasas, u. S. hos
pital ship)
July 49, in Santiago harbor-As we
near The fleet the Hawk, our convoy
dashed ahead to report to the Admiral
on the New York. The fleet was com
posed of seven or eight vessels and
among them the New York and Brook
lyn showed up proudly Our orders
were to enter the harbor as Santiago
had surrendered. These tidings were
received with great cheers by our sol
diers. We headed in right under MORO,
so close that it seemed as if a stone
could easily be dropped on us. Just as
we passed the castle two United States
soldiers jumped on one of the battle
ments and waved their hats exultantIy
proclaiming the victory was as we had
not realized it before. This was the
signal for tremendous cheers from our
ship in response. At the foot of MORO
lay the Reina Mercedes listing over to
the port side with half her deck sub
merged Several large holes in her
deck spoke we'll for the Brooklyn's
guns She did not look badly injured
and several of her rapid fire guns were
out of water We were all on the look
out for the Merrimac and were surpris-
ed to see her so far up the harbor
How she could have passed by MORO
without being sunk is wonderful in
deed. The passage here is very mar
row, barely 100 yards 1 should say, and
the Merrimac lies lengthwise in the
channel with several feet of her
smokestack and her mast tops, one OF
them splintered by a shot, showing
above water. The Merrimac has prob
ably been swung around to let our
ships pass
The hills are not as thickly covered
with vegetation as l had expected,
showing only bushes and low trees.
Near the shore we passed several beau
tiful cIumps of cocoanut trees and here
and there a beautiful Ponciana Regia-
blaze of red among the green.
Several block houses were seen on pro-
minent hills and at the entrance of the
harbor opposite MORO, the remains of
several batteries. Suddenly as we
rounded to, the city came in view with
a number of transports lying off the
wharves. 1t is only about three miles
from the mouth of the harbor to the
city and we were soon at anchor among
the transports. The food is very poor;
the stateroom is very dark, no lights
being allowed at night and we go
around, and there is hardly
any ventilation so that three or four
times during a warm night I have
awakened in a profuse perspiratiOn.
Now that we are here all the delays
and discomforts will be forgotten if we
can go to work and do what we came
for.
Guantanamo, July Cove stayed
only two hours at Santiago. Col. Black
got orders to go to this place, which
is about fifty miles east of Santiago.
We anchored. here just before sunset,
almost under the stern Of the Yale. 1t
seemed fine to see those four mystic
letters and DR.. Miller (Yale 'S8) and
felt like giving the cheer. 1 know very
little of what has been going on here

Attorney General w. 0. Smith said
he was much improved last night. He
is plucky. AS a matter of fact one side
of his head, body and an arm are badly
bruised His head is swelled on the
side, raw and painful. 1t is doubtful
that he will recover from this injury
in several days. Other injuries are
equally bad Mr. Smith takes the mat
ter in fine spirit, however, and is cheer
full over his hard luck. 1t may be a
week before he is out again

Not Your Schoolhouse.

An ideal country school house and
surroundings is hard to find. We call
to mind one, which we regret to say is
over the line in Minnesota, which is a
model. The building, perhaps 20 by
30, had a small tower and in the tower
a bell; both the house and outbuildings
were neatly painted; a substantial
board fence enclosed the acre of land,
patriotic patrons had planted few
nice shade trees and caring for them
they had become beautiful. A large
bed of flowers well tended and watered
was very attractive. There was moth
ing about this particular school house
more costly than with hundreds OF
others, but the taste and refinement
associated with it compelled admir-
alton from every passer by. Are child
rem better for having ST CHI a house to
study in? You say.

Comfort For the Sick.

When there is much fever, frequent
II bathing the face and hands and even
the feet helps to reduce the temperature
and soothe the sufferer. Small basins Of
granite ironware shaped like a half
moon can be obtained which facilitate
the task. A folded Turkish towel can
be placed to receive chance drops
d woman's hair should be combed
and plated once day, or it falls into
a distressing state of disorder. If braid
ed in two plaits. half can be done at
one time and the balance at another.
The eyes should be shaded from the
light not by entirely shutting out the
sunlight-the best disinfectant in the
sickroom-but by half lowering dark
green blind and placing a screen be-
tween the bed and the window.
The mouth should be carefully at
tended to. rinsing it with a little fresh
water after food has been given, wiping
the teeth twice day with a soft bit OF
linen dipped in mixture OF lemon
juice and glycerin and keeping the lips
anointed with pure vaseline to prevent
the skin from cracking.
The undersheet should be tucked be-
meath the mattress and firmly pinned
at the four corners to prevent wrinkles.
Each night and morning it should be
brushed and Strengthened and changed,
if the least soiled, says The Delineator
in suggesting these small items of COM
fort for the sick.

Windbreaks.

In no one thing have greater mis-
takes been made in the past by settlers
on prairie farms than in the planting
OF windbreaks. OF course ally kind of
tree set anyhow and anywhere is a
relief to the wearisome monotony of a
prairie landscape, still It is very rare
thing to find the grove or windbreak
set around the prairie homestead as 1t
should have been. The common mis-
take has been to plant the trees too
near the buildings and to plant them
too thickly and of the most worthless
varieties of timber. The timber belt
should be we'll outside the farm home
stead, where it will not be subjected to
the tramping of stock and the roofing
of hogs, for but few even of our hard
lest trees will live under such condi-
tions. The trees of whatever kind
they may be, should be given room
enough so that they will grow bushy
rather than tall, in order that the
grove may fulfill its mission as awind-
break.

That Home Tie.

We were talking with gentleman
from the state of Maine not long since
and asked him why it was, when agri.
cultural life was so hard, discouraging
and unrenumerative in that state, that
the people there were so reluctant to
come west and exchange their sterile,
stony hills for the rich aIluvial soil of
our western prairies. He said it was
the home tie-the attachment to the
old house, the old farm, the old friends
which kept these people there. We
have but little of this delightful senti-
ment here in the west as yet, but it
will come in time. Now, any man is
ready to sell and try his luck else
where if he can get his price.

Afflicted Summer Boarlers and Others
Find 1t Handy In Hot Weather.
Is there woman that in boarding
house or summer hotel, in the hottest
of the "dog days., has not groaned in
secret and openly over the heat Of her
room during the long afternoons, when
in negligee she has wanted nap or a
dolce far uiente over the latest novel!
To insure privacy the door must be
kept closed, and then ventilation, even
when there happened to be a transom,
was very nearly impossible. With the
door open curtain blowing to and
fro in the breeze was all but useless
No remedy for this evil has ever been
suggested. Afflicted summer boarders
have had to endure. and afternoon
lounging en- deshabille on hot afternoons
has been dreaded
But now, as the New York Herald
tells, there has been planned simple
device that will make rooms habitable.
1t is known as the 'hook and eye, and
in the country houses where it has been
tried works like a charm. 1t consists

half in length, with hook on one
end This bar is attached to ring,
which in its turn is fastened to a screw
plate On arriving at her hotel or
boarding house the guest has this screw
plate fastened to the jamb of the door
Of her room.
There is the "hook." The ''eye" is
simple ring of iron, also on q screw
plate. This latter is screwed on the out
side of the door, at any point desired,
but at such place that the hook being
slipped into the eye the door will be
held firmly opened for the space of a
foot or So The bar can be made longer
if wanted, its exact length being quite
immaterial. It is essential, however,
that shook" and "eye" be screwed in
place five to six feet from the floor.
From this bar a thin curtain is hung,
a filmy, thin curtain, just wide enough
to cover the opening, that passersby
along the halls may not see into the
room. That this curtain may not wave
hither and thither with the breeze it is
made with hem into which a weight
| is poured-sand if the house be at the
seashore, rocks and stones if it be in the
country.
When the apparatus is in place and
the curtain gently swings from the bar,
a good breeze is coming in over the top
that completely ventilates the room and
brings down the temperature most eff
fectually. At the same time there is the
most absolute privacy.

Turnips and Mutton Flavor.

A broiled chop of English South
down mutton represents the daintiest
and most toothsome delicacy produced
on English soil. Such chop is no
tenderer or fatter than that produced
in this country, but its superiority lies
wholly in its fiavor-a flavor impaired
to the meat by the turnips upon which
the sheepis fed. England is essenti-
ally the home of the turnip, the mild
winter, the cool, moist climate, and
the cheap farm labor combining to
make it one of the Istaple crops of that
country. The sheep is kept to utilize
the turnip, and the most delicately
favored mutton in the world is the re-
suit. Iowa is not a turnip country.
The heat and droughts of August and
September are almost fatal to this crop.
Corn-fed mutton is about the best we
can produce and while this is sweet
and eatable, it entirely lacks the fine
flavor of the English product.

Work and Art.

We noticed a young woman, per-
haps eighteen or thereabouts, few
days since, seated on sulky plow,
driving three fine grade Norman
horses and turning over three acres of
land day in nice shape. She wore a
short dress, pair of boys boots, sun
bonnet, and her hands were protected
by pair Of thick gloves; this was
work. We saw the same day another
woman fretting because she could not
match colors ON material for fine
dress; this was art, we suppose.
