Female Nurses Endure Hard
ships in Cuba.
NO PAY IN THREE MONTHS
Miss Kilroy Writes That the Women
Nurses Are Obliged to Sleep
Three in Tent With
out a Floor.

Richard r. Kilroy, principal of the
Anaconda High school, has received
letter from his sister, Miss H. M. Kill
roy, who is one of those brave young
women in the hospital service at Ha-
vana. The letter is dated Christmas
day, and in some respects will be found
interesting reading for those who keep
tab on the affairs of the service in
Cuba. Miss Kilroy says:
II came South to Florida in August.
There / was head nurse in large hos
pital. When the 7th army corps moved
to Camp Onward. Savannah. Ga, I
went with them and took charge of an
emergency hospital. ] had a very nice
+. class of nurses. hospital corps men,
etc. On Sunday, the 18th, we left
Savannah for Havana on the United
rived here Thursday morning. Crowds
assembled to see us Off for the land of
yellow fever. There We're so female
nurses, doctors and hospital corps men
chosen out of 300, among whom was
and my six nurses.
I'VE are having a great deal of trou-
BILE about establishing our hospital here
the city is full of yellow fever. Cuban in
surgents and Spaniards, and we are
camped eight miles out of Havana.
The Cubans who were hired to unload
our provisions from the transports have
all struck, and we have been living on
hard tack and coffee-three in tent
without any floors-ever since our ar
rival. Talk about hardships-I can't
begin to tell you. This is Christmas
a and pf TIC how A,v,,
to come into town and get a square
meal We were all pretty faint and
hungry when we sat down to dinner
but we feel better now.
This has been grand experience for
me, and l will be all the better off for
it. They expect to do away with the
female nurses in about two months. If
it were not for that / think could get
the best there is. AS it is, however,
will have my contract annulled and go
out West to Montana.
This is a beautiful city, but so un-
sanitary and dirty. Everything is in a
ferment. I wish you could have seen
the thousands who stood on the
wharves when we left Savannah, and as
we pulled out everybody sang, Fare
WE'LL Farewell. My Own True Love-
I was sick nearly all the way over but
came on deck just as we were entering
Havana harbor, and it is sight to be
remembered. On one side was the ia
nous Moro Castle and on the other
with the moonlight streaming down
upon her, lay the wrecked Maine. 1t
was sight to see the people uncover
to man, and the ships crew sang,
How Sleep the Brave Then we all
forgot our sea sickness and we felt a
stirring patriotism within us.
''On the streets here people invite one
into their houses. if one is an 'Ameri-
cano,' and treat one to all kinds of nice
things.

for Eleven Years.
Father Demenez, who died recently at
Fort Benton, and who was we'll known
either personally or by reputation, to
nearly every Catholic in the state, was
formerly a resident of Seattle, where
for IL years he was chaplain of Provi-
dence hospital. The Post Intelligencer
of Seattle says of Father Demenez and
his work in that city:
Father Edward Demenez, who died q
few days ago in the st. Claire hospital
at Fort Benton, Mont, from injuries re-
ceived in railroad accident Dec. 49,
was an old resident of Seattle, where he
had many friends.
For IL years he was chaplain of
Providence hospital. Sister Superior
Eugene yesterday received further par
ticulars concerning the accident which
caused his death. He was on his way
from Great Falls, Mont, to Fort Ben
ton. riding in the caboose of freight
train. There was a rear end collision
and Father Demenez was the only one
injured. At first it was not thought
that his life was in danger, as only one
leg was crushed. He was Immediately
taken to st. Claire hospital, where it
was discovered that his condition was
critical. Despite surgical skill he rap
idly failed and finally passed away.
Father Demene4 was born in Bruges,
Belgium. about 81 years ago. On leav-
ing his home he came directly to Seat
tie and took charge of the chapel at
Providence hospital That was in 1884
He continued in that position until
three years ago. when he was trans
ferred to Fort Benton, Mont. 1t is a
sparsely settled country and he was re-
CURED to do missionary work in sew
eral towns.
During his residence in Seattle
Father Demenez became very well
known. He was an earnest. conscien-
tiious man and every one who came in
contact with him respected and adj
mired him. He was great worker and
did much toward the building of the
Brothers college. He acquired consid-

CONTEMPT OF COURT.
Doyle Disregarded an Injunction Issued
by Judge Lunt.

Doyle Disregarded an Injunction Issued
by Judge Lunt.
Colorado Springs, Colo. Jan s.-James
Doyle, mayor of Victor Colo, and a
wealthy owner of mines in Cripple Creek,
occupies a cell in the county jail here,
having been committed by Judge Lunt of
the district court for contempt of court.
His alleged disregard of an injunction is
sued by Judge Lunt against him not to
prosecute a suit brought by him at Coun-
ell Bluffs, Iowa, against James F. Burns
of the Portland Gold Mining company to
recover several hundred shares of Port
land stock caused Judge Lunt to order his
commitment.
Mr.. Doyle was in Denver when the order
was issued, but on learning of it took the
first train for this city and accompanied
the sheriff to jail. Mr. Doyle spent the
day in Jail and has seen several friends.
He declines, however, to say anything
about his case. His relations with the
officers are of the most friendly character
and he seems to appreciate the novelty
as well as the unpieasantness of his de-
tention. 1t is expected that an effort to
secure his release on a habeas corpus
writ will be made Tomorrow.

THAT CHRISTMAS STANDARD.
1t Attracts the Attention of People in
m Chicago.

~ Chicago.
And still they come. Ever since the
Christmas Standard was issued notices
of praise of it have been published
in nearly every newspaper in the Unit
ed States, and private letters to people
in this city have been received by the
hundreds. Among the more recent
press notices respecting the Christmas
Standard is published in The Hotel
World, publication issued at Chicago,
and one of the many excellent journals
who devote themselves to hotels and
the hotel business. The Hotel World
says:
1.-THE Christmas edition of the daily
Standard, published at Anaconda,
Mont. contained Sc pages 1t reminds
one of the Worlds fair editions of the
Chicago Tribune That such a paper,
containing so much Of interest about
Montana and it's resources, and besides
having the regular news and special ar
ticles found in metropolitan dailies,
should be published in the city the
size of Anaconda simply means that
one must still go West to see American
enterprise at it's best. Anaconda is one
of the wealthiest cities in the far
Northwest possessing the richest mines
of their class in the world, and among
the young city's attractive features is
the Hotel Montana, a house that would
not look bad if standing beside the finest
hotels of New York or Chicago"

Russia Is Hurrying Men to the East and

discover Il possible, some evidence on
the part of the Russian government to
give effect to the disarmament proposals
of Emperor Nicholas, says all his obser-

correspondent says:
LAT the naval dockyards I found fever

of war and marine have been inspecting
all the important military and naval sta

number of men enrolled in the army and
navy during the months of October and
November last were larger than ever.
