was unable to reach Manila on account
of the blockade and returned to Hong
Kong. A month later she landed in
Manila and was the first American wo-
man to enter the captured city. She
Immediately commenced her work as
nurse. The government offered her
position. If she accepted, it meant that
she must become a contract nurse and
serve in that capacity in some one
ward. She refused and became an in
dependent nurse. The Kansas regiment
was first in her thoughts. She cared
for the sick and wounded who needed
more than the passing care of the ward
nurses. II no Kansan needed her care
she went to the other regiments For
long time she was the only woman
nurse in or around Manila and with the
Kansas boys particularly she became

campaign A Kansas mother, who
sent two boys to the front, in speaking
OF her said: ''She was like a mother

recently brought home and buried with
military honors. Even her tender care
and nursing could not save him.
Miss SpradIin is earnest and untiring
in her efforts to establish the home.
"A Christian resort is greatly needed
to counteract the influence OF the 400
saloons in Manila" said Miss Spradlin.
"These 400 saloons were started by
Americans after the fall Of Manila and
are for the soldiers and sailors. They

How much different it would be if the
Christian element of the United States
had been as quick to extend their work
and what a different impression would
have been made. There is not moral
place of amusement for the soldiers in
Manila. There is not a religious meet
ing place where over 100 can be seated
while one saloon alone seats 400.'i
Miss Spradlin knows as well as the
soldier what it means to be under fire
She was in Manila during the outbreak
and there heard the hum of bullets for
the first time. When the advance was
started she was constantly on the firing
line until forced back to Manila on ac-
count of sickness. She followed the for

THE NEXT MOVE
In the Nicaraguan Canal Matter is to
Get Consent of Central Ameri-
can States-

Washington. Feb 7.-Secretary Hay is
determined that the state department
shall observe with the most scrupulous
fidelity whatever obligation may rest upon
it toward Nicaragua and Costa Rica in
the matter OF the construction of the
Nicara guam canal 1t has not been pos
sible to move in that matter pending the
removal of the obstacle in the way of
canal building, presented by the Clayton
Bu1wer treaty. There has not been the
slightest disposition to ignore the govern
ments of our sister republics in the mat
ter but. in the view of the department
it would not have been dignifed or safe
to make overtures to them before the
United States had acquired the power to
deal with q free hand the canal problem
so far as Great Britain was concerned.
Now, however, the department will ad-
dress itself to the governments of Nicara-
qua and Costa Pica, looking to the ac-
quirement of whatever privileges are
deemed essential to the cons truction Of
the canal and operation.
as the senate shall have ratified the
treaty and the notifications shall have
been exchanged, the department will ad-
dress identical notes to the great mari
time powers of the whole world to secure
their adhesion to the project for the per-
petual naturalization of the canal.

DEWEY ARCH FUND.
Concert in New York Proves a Finan-
ciaI and Social Success.

New York, Feb. THE concert in
Carnegie hall last night for the bene-
fit of the Dewey arch fund was a great
success in every way. Many society
people attended The hall was beau
tlfully decorated with pOtted plants and
ferns and on the stage the parterre Of
seats for the chorus OF 125 men and It's
women was banked with FERNS palms
and orange trees in bloom, while above
were long strings of myrtle and ever
green intertwined and dependent from
the wings.
There was an orchestra of sixty-five
pieces. Walter Damrosch conducted.
Madame De We're -Sapio sang the IN
hammatus" in place of Mime. Nordica,
who was i'll. The concert was a sort OF
welcome to Admiral Dewey and Gov
ernor Roosevelt, both of whom were
present On the first tier of boxes mid
way between the stage and the rear on
either side of the auditorium were
placed festoons of American flags and
evergreens- On the right of the house
was the box reserved for Admiral
Dewey and on the left the box for
Governor Roosevelt.
1t was $50 o'clock when the carriage
containing Admiral Dewey, Mrs. Dewey,
George Dewey, the admirals son, and
Lieutenant Caldwell, drove up to Car
negie hall There was no applause when
the admiral assisted his wife from the
carriage, though there was large
crowd on the sidewalk. The admiral

noticed. Shortly after them came Cow
ernor Roosevelt and his party. Cove
ernor Roosevelt got, a little applause.
When Admiral Dewey pushed aside
the curtains of his box he was immed-
lately recognized and some one cried:
Three cheers for Dewey" They were
given with a will. The one hundred
and seventy-five women in the chorus,
all dressed in white, rose and shook
their handkerchiefs. The audience did
the same. just then Governor Roose-
velt pushed aside the curtains of the
box on the other side of the house.
Some one cried: Three cheers for
Governor Roosevelt Three cheers
were given but with less Vigor than for
Admiral Dewey.
All through the performance there
were many callers at the box of the
Deweys and the Roosevelts. Admiral
Dewey often left his box to walk in the
lobby.
After the rendition Of the Manila

rosch in honor of the victory at Manila.
and which was led by Mime. Gadski, Gov
ernor Roosevelt spoke of the wisdom
of being we'll equipped for war. and

Washburn college was established in
1858 in the building that is now Jack

THE time will come when you will
look back with happy retrospect and
your minds will conjure up the mem

sweetest memories that will cluster
about you, as long as life itself. The
time will come when you can see how

PROPOSED RESORT.
Additional Information About T. W.
Beams Project.


In connection with the proposed Man
haitian Beach resort referred to in Mon
days paper. Mr.. Bean has issued the
following circular:
The Manhattan Beach Resort company,
of Topeka. Kansas, is being organized
for the purpose of creating a pleasure
resort within easy access of the city
OF Topeka, Kansas. The chief aims Of
the company are as follows:
FfrSt-To create an artificial body of
water (within five miles of the city) of
at least three-fourths by one-half mile
in extent.
Second-To stock same with variety
of game fish.
Third-To purchase steam launches
and pleasure boats.
F'ourth-To provide a bathing beach
perfectly safe for ladies and children;
also to provide for all other innocent
amusements usual to such places.
Thirty-f1ve hundred shares of stock
of the denomination of $40 each are to be
issued; fifty per cent to be payable
when ground is secured, twenty-five
per cent in thirty days and twenty five
per cent in sixty days from date OF
purchase of land.
Stock will be full paid and non-as-
sessable, the company being organized
under the laws of New Jersey.
It is fully believed that this can be
made a paying investment, when the
fact is taken into consideration that the
whole state of Kansas does not include
in it's borders a single lake that is open
to the general public. There is no
place within reach of this city where a
man can take his family and spend an
outing, whether of a day or a week. at
an expense within the average mans
means. The undertaking will afford q
place Of recreation at a very small ex-
penSe, and the absence of any other like
place of amusement will ensure liberal
patronage.
AS soon as all stock is subscribed for a
meeting of the stockholders will be call
ed and a. board of directors elected for the
first year. No subscription will be pay
able until the entire amount of capital
stock is subscribed for, and the company
thoroughly organized.
The income will be derived from the
and the various places of amusement
shooting galleries, bowling alleys, etc.
It is also estimated that from seventy
five to one thousand tons of ice can be
sold each year, and at the small sum OF
fifty cents per ton at the lake lit costs
not to exceed five cents per ton to place
in ice house, this will bring in a hand
some revenue alone. The Santa Fe rail-
way, whose headquarters are in Topeka,
depends entirely on Colorado for her ice
supply. During the past twenty-five years
there has been but two or three seasons
when ice could not be secured from a
lake such as is proposed.
Subscriptions for stock may be sent to
the undersigned, $40 jackson street, To-
peka, Kansas. and parties subscribing will
be notified of completion of subscriptions
and date of first meeting.

just like any other experience that we
have to undergo. If I lodged I didn't
know it." The heat was as severe as
the bullets. Scores and scores of sol
diers were brought in from the firing
line overcome by heat. In the cool
confines of the church she cared for
them until she herself suecumbed to
the climate and hardships and was sent
back to the general hospital in Manila
She found that her services were
needed at the regimenta1 reserve hos
pital as much as at the front. and
from that time she remained at the re-
serve hospital. She was general su-
perintendent and nurse.
Miss Spradlin will raise money for
the home by subscriptions. She pro-
poses to send letters to the soldiers of
the western regiments who served in
the Philippines. She will ask them for
small donations and will enclose let
ters from her for them to send to 9TH
ers who may be glad to help. She may
also sell the complete series of the last
issue of postage and revenue stamps
made by the Spanish government be-
fore the fall of Manila. There is a
vastly different condition in Manila
than in the United States as regards
the soldiers said Miss Spradlin.
There are no American homes there,
and the soldiers have no home influ-
ences as they had in San Francisco"
In speaking about the Philippine sit
uation she said, 1.-THE government can
do no different than has been done. We
have not sought the Philippines, but
we now owe the people there a duty
that we can not honorably get out Of
So long as the United States govern
ment has control of the islands Ameri-
can troops will be stationed there.
There is need for this home. The sol
diers and sailors should have a Chris
tan resort where they may obtain
meals without having to go to a drink
ing place. Baths, reading room, a place
of worship, recreation rooms, music and
instruction"
Miss Spradlin wears the white badge
of the Eighth army corps, the organi-
cation she is working for. When she
left for India her home was in North
Topeka; now she claims Manila as her
place of residence. She will remain in
Topeka for some time, at 1921 Clay
street, where she hopes to receive
funds for the Clara Barton home"
