A REGIMENT BEFORE AND AT
TER. SERVICE IN CUBA,


DR.. Presley c. Hunt, who physically
examined the officers and men Of the
First District of Columbia Infantry, U
S. ", when the regiment was mustered
out in November, has prepared an in
teresting statement showing the condl-
ton of the men at the time, from which
the following is an excerpt:
II found marked difference between
the condition of the officers and men
80 per cent. of the former and 30 per
cent. of the latter able to perform i'm
mediate military service. Thirty-nine
out of $3.50 were confined to their beds
and were not examined.
II found, with the exception of three
or four, every man who had gone to
Cuba had suffered from the fever !
found that no matter for how short a
time they suffered, the fever was apt
to return.
II remember one day that out of
eighty men L sent three to the hospital
who had reported for examination, and
four others We're suffering from mark
ed fever Qo2 degrees to 1903 IL degrees)
at the time of examination.
"Of the men who had seen service In
Cuba, per cent. were improved by mil
itary service, 5 per cent. were in as good
physical condition as at the time Of en-
listment, IA per cent. were but slightly
affected, and, as a rule, the troubles
were not traceable to military service.
1.-THE general condition Of the remain
der of the men-70 per cent, 52S-was
as follows: Irritable heart, due to few
err, 1855; mitral reorganization, 4; chronic
bronchitis, 214; acute bronchitis, At,
phthisis, Washington Post.

FASHION, NOTES.


For several years exqustes have re-
fused to appear in new clothes at Eas-
ter, but this year it is rumored that
they will behave quite like common folk.
The Easter hat, too, will be more of
an institution than ever. The shirred
tulle hat will be satisfactory venture.
1t may be inconspicuous in color and
outline and yet it will be new. White
tulle hats, shirred and covered lightly
with black tulle and trimmed with a
plume or so, will be great favorites, but
don't imagine that white and black
separately or in combination are to be
the only shades for such hats. Mon
eyed women already have shown a

To the Editor of the Journal and Courier:
In your issue of March 6 you pub
| lished a communca ton from me rela-
tive to "Some Vexing Problems" in our
/ CONGREGATIONAL churches. The inquiries
and suggestions which have come to me
in various ways because of that article
move me to ask you to favor me with
a little more space to touch upon one
or two points raised.
A clerical friend stopped me on the
street in a neighboring city recently,
and said in substance, Il read your ar
ticle with much interest. l believe you
are right In regard to the ministerial
problem. In regard to the second prob
lem, the debt Of the benevolent and
missionary societies, there is an over
looked fact to be considered, viz, Con-
gregationalists are growing enormously
rich, but they are not giving to benev-
client and missionary purposes, as the
Lord prospers them. What is needed
is a concerted effort to move these peo-
pie to do their full duty" | do not
feel moved to make any reply to this
claim. | might have said, truthfuly,
| think, YOU are right in part, at
least brother, but only in part. Some
Congrega tionalsts are unquestionably
getting enormously rich" there is no
doubt of that But how about the
many? Is it not true that while few
are getting enormously rich the many
are getting uncomfortably poor? And
is not the core of the trouble really
right there?
The technical name of the malady
which is drying up the streams of be-
nevolence in our churches is therefore
undue concentration of wealth." In
this world of ours one man who is
worth a million dollars, even when ''his
praise is in all theCchurches'' will not
as rule contribute as much, or half
as much as one hundred ordinary men

WIRELESS TELEGR1PHY.

| For a long time there has been wire
less telegraphy between lovers and
some other impressionable people, but
the time is at hand when there will be
wireless biography between business
men. Wednesday morning the Lon
don Times printed hundred-word dis
patch, the first press message by the
new system The dispatch describes the
experiments on this new line of COM
municatio without wires or any other
visible connection between the two sta
tons The plan, which includes a
transmitter and receiver, which must
be in harmony, and the Morse method
of signaling, Is the invention of Gugliel-
ma Marconi, an italian scientist. He
recently obtained, after long delay, per-
mission from the French government
to establish a station on the French
coast for experimenting with wireless
biography between France and Eng
land: and now he announces the sue
cess of the undertaking. The stations,
one near Boulogne in France and the
other at the South Foreland, Kent,
in England, are about forty miles apart
it had been tried for a shorter distance,
an eighteen-mile stretch between Poole
and the Needles, on the Isle of Wight,
with marked success; but no such dis
lance as this between Boulogne and
the South Foreland has ever been at
tempted before.

fancy for having tulle hat for each of
several dresses. An all red hat of this
material will be voted all right. You
| remember the sad experience many
women had with the scarlet hat of a
season or so ago. Now they are likely
to try it again and to like it better,
Three selections from the new millin-
cry are shown herewith. The upper one
was small toque of shirred violet
tulle covered with English violets and
leaves A large rosette Of violet satin
ribbon was placed in front, and white
osprey fell toward the back. Below this
at the right is theater toque of black
chiffon and red straw. This was COW
cred with white lace and trimmed at
the side with lace loops and red silk pop
pies. The hat remaining was corn COL
ored straw, the brim draped with white
tulle and a wreath of nasturtiums. A
large white and yellow wing and bow
of yellow satin ribbon were placed on
the crown at the back.

THE ETCHED ARMENT4 Ms

Little has been publicly said lately
about the sufferings of the Armenians,
but that is not because their sufferings
are over or greatly decreased. Accord
ing to reports from Constantinople the
wretched Armenians are rapidly APP
preaching another period of acute suf-
ferins and famine. In Anatolia the dis
tress is due directly to the systematicl
pillage to which all Armenian families
have been exposed. Even after the hus-
bands and brothers had been killed, the
families had still their jewels, their fur
nture, their cattle, and other property.
When these, however, We're stolen or
sold they had no longer any resource.
Another contributory cause to the dis
tress in Anatolia is the deportation of
Armenians from Constantinople. Be-
fore the massacres there was a popula-

An attempt, under the guise OF fur

He referred particu- larly to peas, beans, spinach, and mix ed vegetables. These products were en- tirely unstable unless they were of a green color. He had known them to be sent to clubs for two or three weeks together without coloring matter, but they had nearly always been returned by the gentlemen to whom they were served. The clubs, therefore declined to use them. Vegetable colorings had been tried, such as extract of spinach, but had always failed. The vegetables colored in this way had an offensive smell when opened. The use of sulphate of copper in peas had caused great trouble in the grocery trade, but he did not think that copper in the proportion in which it was used was injurious to health.
