SAVED BY FATHERS SKIN.
Painful Operation ON Patient EN-

That his son might live, David Lamb, Of
Philadelphia, has allowed ten long strips
of skin to be removed from each of his
thighs and grated upon the boys face
and neck. The sacrifice was a great one,
but the father is supremacy happy in the
fact that his act has saved the life Of his
child, and that he is now on the fair road
to recovery.
John, the son, who is years old, was

plosion Jan. 27 last. He was removed to
the Woman's Homeopathic hospital,
where the doctors pronounced his case
hopeless. Yet day after day he fingered
on, but suffering intense agony, for the
raw flesh was exposed on face and neck
and would not heal Several times it was
feared that gangrene would set in.
A week ago the father made one of his
daily calls at the hospital and INQUIRED
after his son. There is but one hope"

ROYAL COOKS.
The European Princesses Are Nearly
All Good Housewives.

The European Princesses Are Nearly
All Good Housewives.
1t would be hard to find In all Germany
a princess who is not good cook and
shousekeeper. For more than 100 years
the daughters of rulers in Germany have
been carefully trained In these arts En-
press Augusta Victoria took lessons In
cooking when she was young girl. and
she was also SO skilled as dressmaker
that even after she became empress she
had her attire made under her own per-
sonal supervision. Grand Duchess Louise
of Baden told her only daughter. Princess
Victoria, wife Of the crown prince of
Sweden, never to forget that every
woman. whether she lives in palace or
a cottage, should be a careful houSekeep-
er and perfect cook" Princess Victoria
did not forget this lesson, and there are
few better housekeepers or cooks than
she is.
Some of the princesses of England are
trained nurses. and the princess of Wales
Is skilled bOOkbinder. The queen mother
or Holland took care that her only
daughter, Wihelmina, should be careful
ly instructed in the domestic arts, and as
a result 1t Is said that the young lady Is
not only good cook but also an excel
lent laundress. When she was child
her greatest delight was to wash and iron
her own clothes. She also learned how
to. knit, but was not patient enough for
such work When 1 become queen I'll
see that the poor people, who work so
hard and get so little, are we'll treated" 4"
she said one day when she found that
do what she would. she made no progress
with her knitting.
AT the court Of Vienna the young peo-
pie are carefully instructed In foreign
languages. After Emperor Francis Jo-
Seph became engaged to Princess Eliza
beth of Bavaria, one Of his first acts was
to furnish her with teachers who were to
instruct her in the Italian. Hungarian
and Bohemian languages, and great was
his satisfaction when he was informed
in short time that his betrothed was
making excellent progress In those Ian
guages. The queen mother, however was
not yet satisfied. She remembered that
the emperor of Austria was also king of
Poland, and she insisted that the future
empress should also learn Polish.

The warning afforded by the shocking
death of Mrs. Dickins only adds to the
frequent admonitions to housekeepers TO
be extremely cautious in their handling of
volatile fluids for cleaning. 1t is depress-
ing TO note the regularity with which the
dangers of this practice are ignored. The
nature of the fluids is such that it is abso-
lutey unsafe to make use of them in i'll
closed spaces. The chance of ignition is
beyond calculation. Explosions have been
caused by the most unexpected means, a
flying spark from the chimney stepping
upon an unseen match lying on the floor
a leak of the yapors into a room containing
a live fame. and the like, all being recorded
as leading directly to death in this horri-
BILE manner. Yesterdays tragedy contribut-
ed still another means of destruction to
this list. 1t would seem beyond the range
of probability that just such another COM
bination of circumstances would ever occur
again. the open can of gasoline, the pres
ence of vapors in the attic room, favoring
instant combustion. the entrance of the
workmen from the roof. of all places, with
burning lamp. Yet it is by means of just
such abnormal conditions that casualties
occur, and it is for this reason that the
greatest precautions are necessary in any
use of dangerous materials. 1t is plain that
there is no safety whatever in their manp-
ulation unless it be in the open air. where
there is no possibility of the accumulation
of the escaping vapOrs and hence no chance
for sudden ignition.
Mrs DickIns is deeply mourned by very
wide circle. Her charitable works endeared
her to many vino through these endeayors
came 10 know the kindly side of her ma
ture. Her services last summer in behalf
of the families of the District soldiers were
of great value and will never be forgotten
by the community. 1t is doubly sad when
one who so accurately measures her oppor-
tunities for good works is thus suddenly
cut of by an accident which seems to have
been easily avoidable.

II Is clear from the report published else
where today concerning the establishment
of harbor lines in the Potomac at this city
that the engineering officers of the War De
partment are striving diligently to give the
capital a first-class water front in keeping
with the costly improvements which have
been effected. Gen. Wilson's representa-
tfcns to the Secretary of War, now laid
before the Commissioners. bring the mat
ter 10 the point of final action whereby
the harbor limits may be definitely de-
termiEed. thus leading to substantial i'm
provement in the near future in conjunc-
ton with the works which may be under
taken in rehabilitatins the wharfs under
the Supreme Courts decision. New
walls and wharf facilities will doubtless be
provided giving the city's edge far more
reputable appearance than it has had for
many years. The shipping here is not
heavy. but it will grow as the facilities for
the prompt discharge of cargoes are in
creased and the harbor is made easy of ac
cess al all stages of the tide. From an
esthetic point of view it is earnestly to be
hoped that a comprehensive plan involving
a generous expenditure will eventually be
adopted, ensuring the evolution of a water
front contributing directly to the city's
beauty. The opportunity at hand for this
effect is exceptional. The character of the
shipping is such that unusual attention can
be paid to the architectural features of
riveredge scheme. Park features are per-
misSihe which must be eschewed in other
large cities where business conditions de-
mlnd the use of every foot of the water
front for wharyes. heavy devices for hoist
Ing and large spaces for storing goods. The
subject is worthy of the most earnest con-
siitratiOn by both local and national au-
thOritics. whose interests are jointly in
VOWED. Meanwhile much is accomplished
by the determination of the harbor lines,
which fix the channel edges and limit the
extent of wharf construction. 1t is graft
flying To note that among the recommended
tons is one that the useless triangular
space south of the arsenal point at the in
trrseCtiOn of the two rivers. is to be eX-
c!rded from the harbor limits, thus prom
Using that eventually in the reclamat ton of
the remaining fiat lands this space may
be added To the park area The whole I'M
proNernent is now moving forward in vari-
Gus directions. Further work is TO be done
in the Washington and Virginia channels of
the Potomac. and il is confidently expected
that the houses next winter will grant the
money necessary to begin the long delayed
work In the Eastern Branch. Then with
park improvements on the reclaimed area
west of the city under way Washington

republican institutions. This episode re-
vea1s clearly the character of the insurrec-
ton. as in substance selfish movement by
a few ambitious leaders to further their
own ends. There is doubtless some sincere
sentiment among the army in favor of the
higher principles of Independence, which
has been festered by Aguinaldo and Luna
and others for their own personal purposes.
But there is abundant testimony al hand
to show that these leaders have persistently
lied to their followers, misrepresenting the
character and the purposes of the Amer
leans and seeking to create prejudices
which would offset the fair showing of the
newcomers for stable. liberal government.
in which the people should play a promi-
nent part. The disclosure of the truth can
not be long postponed. especially IL the fac
tons resort to assassination and dctatorial
rule to sustain themselves. This acquittal
of Luna's slayers is an eloquent revelation
of the true nature of the men who have
been so persistenly lauded by the Little
Americans as higher in their conceptions
and more noble in their aspirations than
are the majority of the people of the United
States.

ratification of the peace treaty. He said
that had the treaty been promptly and
unanimously ratified as 1t ought to have
been. there would have been no conflict 1t
was sent to the Senate early in December
and there was no outbreak among the ma
tives until February ), while the treaty
was not ratified until February 6.
The same sentiments which had interior
ed with the prompt acceptance of the
treaty and consequently complicated the
case in Luzon operated to deprive the Pres
ident of the means of coping fairly with the
situation thus created. The army reorgan-
ization bill was amended that the Presi-
dent was obliged to reduce the army at
once to 1850 men by discharging every
volunteer and all the extra regulars en-
listed for the war with Spain. He was
compelled early in March, therefore, to
undertake the reorganization of the army
in the face of a desperate insurrection in
the territory which the Senate had tardily
accepted.
\ Ciamor for the return of the volunteers
Immediately upon the proclamation of peace
caused a revival of this obstructive an
tagonisn to the policies of the government
by small minority of the people. Despite
these handicaps the President proceeded
with the work of reorganization. while the
campaign in LuZon was pressed with the
means available the volunteers being grad
ually returned to the United States and
their places filled by regulars. The situa-
ton involved serious dangers and required
extreme care. Quietly the work of recruit
ing went until when the rainy season
had set in the plans of the administration
We're fairly well advanced and the govern
ment was ready to give the commander in
LuZOn a sufficient force to carry out the de-
ferred mandate of the Senate and estab
lish sovereignty in the archipelago.
The Postmaster General sees matters
with the clearness of a man of affairs He
has accurately gagged the temper of the
people when he says that they desire above
all things the speedy restoration of peace
to the islands, and that they are willing to
uphold the hands of the government at
any cost. 1t is but right that an explicit
statement of the responsibilities of the ad-
mnistration be made now that the project
of recruiting has reached the stage of pub
hcity and definite organization, apparently
in response to a new clamor. but really in
the normal development of a comprehen-
sive plan adopted by the President imme-
Giately upon the passage of the mutilated
and inadequate army bill. Unthinking
criticism of the government in it's time of
stress, contributed to materially by its
opponents at home in the face of a public
enemy, finds justification in this plain
statement of the case by an official whose
estimate of the situation is verified by all
the recorded facts
