RICHMOND, Ind, Oct. 6. - Before the

mer the contract was let for new cottage

ready for occupancy by the first of the
year. A new cold-storage plant has been
in use since the 1st of August. Ground was
broken this week for two hospital cottages,
each to have capacity of thirty beds, one
for men and one for women. The new cot
tage for men will make 1t possible to take
in a number Of additional patients, and this
will in some measure relieve the jails and
poor houses. The hospital has been badly
crowded for some years. and there have
been no admissions possible OF late except
where vacancies resulted from death or dis
charge. An addition is to be made to the
laundry this season.

sharp blasts of a steamboat whistle
that attracted everybody's attention,
and the big Sandy Hook was seen
coming around the Olympia, her
decks crowded, and the weight of her
passengers all on one side, causing
her to careen until her port rail was
IN the water. The whistles were fol-
lowed by cheers and yells that would
have done credit TO a band of Com
anches. The Sandy Hook was with
in stones throw of the Olympia
and her passengers could see Dewey.
The yelling went on. The Admiral's
face beamed as he looked at the pref
ty girls who were in the crowd. He
walked over to the port rail and tax
ing off his hat he bowed. waving it
three or fonr times. Then such
shouting a. there was. Somebody
threw over the side Of the Sandy
Hook an immense American flag.
"Ah.' said the Admiral, its good
to hear americans again. And " h.
said, "there's the old flag. too" aud
be swung his hat once more.
As he turned away from the crowd

and be said: "Ah. me. / began being

then and so did his hearers. and the
Sandy Hook steamed on, her hun
dreds of passengers still shouting and

and time again, as if there were no
