AS DIR. j. f. Mccarthy is well known
to large number of our readers
we copy the following from the Special
Race edition of the Dubuque Daily
Telegraph;
Dr. j. F. Mccarthy was born in this
city in 1867. A few years later his
parents emigrated to Clayton county,
taking him along. Here the child was
sheltered in log cabin, the trees for
the making of which were felled and
hewn by his father. CLAYTON county.
then trackless forest inhabited only
by wild animals and not unfrequently
visited by Indians, was made the more
trying home for the child by the death
of his father soon after their arrival
by the guidance of good mother and
the spurrings of sheer necessity he soon
learned the value of persistent industry
Fond of books from early youth it wss
little wonder, despite his circumstances
that dawning manhood found him il
possession of sufficient education for
entry to college.
Though advised by no oracle better
than his personal inclinations (if indeed
1t could be said that man needs better
he began the study of medicine in thu
State University of Iowa. After tax
ing part of the course there he removed
to the medical department of the Uni
versity of Minnesota at Minneapolis
From this school he graduated in 1888;
and had the good fortune to be retained
the year following as intern in its hos
pital.
After finishing his internship DIR. Nc
Carthy opened an office in this city
where he has practiced ever since. MOI
being satisfied, however, with the Ordi.
nary training received in the medica
college, at different times during hi
practice, he has attended the Post
Graduate Medical College of New Y OIL
where he has completed five post. grad.
uata courees of study.
While his practice has been large
from the beginning he has never LOST
sight of the necessity and opportunit,
of keeping thoroughly conversant witt
the ARRANGEMENTS of his profession
His professional library contains mos
OF the latest medical works as well as
the latest medical journals of the day
Since its Introduction into his pro
fession he has made electricity spe
cial study and is now considered ar
authority on the subject.
DIR. Mccarthy is a democrat, though
not an extreme PARTISAN. He has been
entrusted with the office of cornt,
physician for three terms and wai
United States marine surgeon for Thu

ton.
DR.. McCarthy's residence and Officer
are on Eleventh and Iowa streets. Tt

no comment on their grandeur is JUST
fed: With their exquisite architectu

| To THE PEOPLE OF IOWA: i am
this day in receipt of a communication
from the Honorable Elihu Root, secre-
tary of war, inclosing dispatches re-
ceived from the governor general OF
Porto Rico, setting forth the devasta-
ton wrought by the recent hurricane in
that island, and from which quote as
follows: "The magnitude of the work
to be accomplished leads this depart
ment to supplement the appeal already
made to the mayors of the principal
cities of the country by more general
appeal and l beg you to ask the people
of your state to contribute generously
to the relief of the people of Porto
Rico"
This is the first official communica-
ton on the subject received by me, and
hasten to respond. i cannot better
describe the restitution and suffering
of the people Of Porto Rico than to
quote from the cablegrams to the war
department by Governor General Davis.
Not more than one-fourth OF the
towns yet heard from, but enough is
known to warrant the statement that
one-lifth of the dwellings on the island
are totally destroyed, and their owners
are without any shelter whatever or
any food beyond what has been saved
from the debris. The coffee
crop and most of the trees are ruined,
and thus reliance for support is gone,
Fully One-third of the people subsist
entirely on fruits and to a small degree
on tubers. All the former are destroyed
and much of the latter are rotting in
the ground. Death from fall
ing walls and drowning will number
more than thousand and may be sew
eral times that number. The state of
distress is very great, and when green
fruits saved from the debris is consumed
the suffering will be Intense"
