i guraos que es un hombre de simpatict
aspecto, communicative y franco, inte-
iligente y active, y estas cualidadel
reune otra, que verdaderamente Sc hs
echado de menes durante muchos afioi
en- las anteriores autoridades: tai es la
de una plausible monomanfa por la hi
giene phblica.
Si las clases acomodadas, salvo hon.
rosas excepciones, no suelen tener ides
de 10 que son el comfort la hygiene,
"a que nivel habran de hallarse los
desheredados de la instruction la

Debiendo ser, POGO que Sc medite, y

pecial, resulta que Sc lie convierte en- ell
receptaculo do todas las inmundicias y
por 10 tanto en- un foco de infection
permanente. Hay tipo que sc queia
luego de que existe en- medic de la ca

que no 10 hace eomponer prontamente,
y entire tanto Sc olvida de que tiene en-
gu propia casa, junto al local en- que Sc
|confeccionan las sustercias alimentieias
un criadero de microbes 4 domicilio,
para ell uso patologico de la propia fa-
milia!
Cosa analoga acontece con los patios
y cuadras y orrales.
Pues bien, este captain benefactor,
que hace baetante falta en- otros muchos

Pero no queda en- este su trabajo: Sc

de Adam, que suelen vcstir los chicos
calleJeros, sc sustituya por otro mas en-
harmonic con la moral la decencia, y
pasando de los hombros los animales,
Intervene en- que haya un POGO de carl

que no Sc les maltrate injustamente y
que Sc los sustraiga del trabajo cuaudo

iCuantas veces hemos visto infelices

cidos de que viene cumplir una mission
civilizadora que no podra menos de
abrirse paso traves de la apatfa, del

this position was made in violation of the
law which provides that all the members
Of the board of general appraisers shall

members OF a party other than republican

campaign He incurred the enmity of his
former associates in the democratic Marty

ing the Palmer-Buckner gold democratic
party, Of which he became chairman of the
national co nmittee. Some time after the
close OF the presidential campaign he re-

gold democrats. and it is alleged that in
the last congressional campaign he took the

New Aspect of the United States in
Foreign Lands.

Mr. Thomas w. Cridler, third assistant
secretary of state and Mrs. Cridler have
just returned to this city from a several
months tour of the continent of Europe,
during which they visited Russia, Turkey,
Germany, France and England. Mr.. Grid
ler resumed his duties at the State Depart
ment this morning, and was so busy with
official matters that he had hardly time to
talk about his trip. He was enthusiastic,
however, over what he termed the new
aspect of the United States in foreign
lands Speaking on this subject, he said:
The very name America is held in high
est respect and esteem because of the posi-
tion the United States has taken recently
in planting its flag and establishing its
authority in various parts of the world.
THE war with Spain, the assumption of
authority in the far east, the work OF the
American delegates to the peace conference
brought the United States forward and
added materially to its prestige abroad.
In England l felt very much at home
1 will tell you of striking incident. Trav-
cling with on the train from London
to Southampton were a number of British
soldiers bound for South Africa. There
were demonstrations all along the way, and
frequently men, women and children were
to be seen waving the British nag in one
hand and the stars and stripes in, the other
THE peoples of all lands are awakening
to the reality that the United States is
now one of the strongest powers of the
earth.'

COMMANDER WOOD DEAD
succumbs to Typhoid Fever After a
Weeks Serious Illness
His Health Had Been Broken Since
His Return From ManlIa-His Dar-
ing Feat I'm the Battle.

Commander e. P. Wood of the navy died
at his residence in this city this morning
from an attack of typhoid fever. He was
one OF the war captains in the Manila bay
battle and commanded the little Pctrel
when she ran in under the forts at Cavi;e
and destroyed some of the Spanish vessels
at their anchorage. Since his return from
Manila TO the United States his health had
been broken and he lacked the power to
throw off the disease which caused his
death.
He had been seriously i'll for only a week
before his death. He was in charge of the
fifth lighthouse district with his office IN
Baltimore, but had been in the habit of
coming over 10 his home at 1865 New
Hampshire avenue, In this city, in the
evenings after the days work
His Daring at Cavite.
Edward P. Wood entered the naval serv-
ice as midshipman in 1863, being appoint
ed from Ohio. He was graduated in June,
1867, and became an ensign December IL,
1888; master March p, 1870, and a lieu
tenant March n, 1871 He was ordered to
command the Petrol December 16. 1896 and
1t was while in that command that he earn
ed the highest praise of Admiral Dewey
and his brother officers. The Petrol was
the tiniest of gunboats, and without pro-
lection beyond a steel deck
Because of her light draft Commander
Wood saw his opportunity to run the Petrol
close in shore off the entrance to the harbor
al Cavite during the battle. The Spanish
ships that remained afloat had sought shell
ter under the guns of the forts at Cavite
and Deweys ships could not get at them
from their stations outside. where they
were obliged to stay by reason of their
deep draft. The little Petrol, however,
steamed boldly into the harbor entrance,
sank the remaining Spanish boats and then
paid her respects to the Spanish forts so
effectually to silence them.
Rewarded by Congress.
The exploit was a remarkable exhibition
of cool daring and skill, and Woods bro
ther officers made no secret of their belief
that his feat was the most daring and
successful of any connected with the
memorable naval battle. The board of ma
val awards recommended that for his emil
nent and conspicuous conduct in battle
Commander Wood should be advanced ten
numbers in his grade, and although that
was a higher measure of reward than was
bestowed upon any other commanding Of
ficer Congress did not withhold it.
Commander Wood was detached from the
Asiatic station December 81, 1888, and COM
ing home, was, after a short leave of alb
sence, placed in charge of the Baltimore
lighthouse district.
Admiral Dewey has Cancelled all his pleas
ure engagements for the coming week on
account of Commander Woods death.
