steamer sassarra. Damaged.

The steamer Sassafras, Of the Colchester
Steamboat Company, which plies between
Baltimore and Havre de Grace, met with an
accident on Wednesday, which, 1T was thought
for time, would founder her. The Sassafras
which is taking the place Of the Susquehanns
during some repairs to the latter, arrived al
the head Of the bay at 7.9O o'clock, and, after
giving the usual whistle for the drawbridge OF
the Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore
Railroad bridge to open, started up the river.
Before the draw could be fully thrown off she
ran into IT, tearing away the pilothouse,
smokestack, steampipe and walking beam.
Captsin Kirwan, of the Susquehanna, and
Captain Tarbutton, Of the Sassafras, were
both In the pilot-house at the time OF the acct
dent, and narrowly escaped by jumping.
The steamer was beached on the Island Bar,
and afterwards towed to the Havre de Grace
landing, by the tug Thomas Champlin. The
amount Of damage cam 1t be fully determined
until q careful examination is made. She will
be towcd to Baltimore for repairs at once.
The accident caused an hours delay to some
of the passenger trains, and careful exami-
nation Of the draw was ordered before they
were permitted to cross.

history of the city on the susquehanna. 1t has
been said of him, that during the fish and
line" season, his services were more sought
than that of any other fisherman. The only

SCARCITY OF PHYSICIANS
Startling Situation in Porto Rico-Can't
 Support Doctors

San Juan, P. R., April 12.-The startling fact was recently made public that in many districts of Porto Rico, where the popula- ton reaches thousands, there is no resi- dent physician. For instance, Wayuya, a town of 1,500, must depend on the simplest remedies in case of illness, as there is no physician within call. At Utado the death rate is per cent. annually, and this is a days ride from Ponce through the noun tains.
 It appears that physicians have been sent to this district, but they refuse to remain, largely because no town is able to support one. As a result of this condition of things, the order providing physician for evry 800 people is now very difficult of enforce ment because the towns reply that there is no fund to pay for such services.
 The island is one vast poorhouse, and there are opportunities for charity at every step.
 Were s1O,OOO to be expended immediately for medicine and medical aid it would pos sibly save the lives of 5000 people, At one time the government considered the feasi- bility of assigning a physician to each town. at an aggregate cost of $SO,0O per year, but the funds for such an outlay are not available.

Beauty Hints.

large number of Birmingham women have availed themselves of the opportunity offered by Madame Fully to investigate her scientific methods of preserving and beautifying the complexion. Her apart ments at the Morris have been thronged with representative women who are inter- ested in Turkish baths for the face. The smoky atmosphere of Birmingham will eventually ruin the best of complexions but proper care will of course go a long ways towards preventing a permanently smoky and sooty complexion. As a bright woman said as she observed the face of another woman being cleansed of "Bir- mingham dirt" that she really felt that the outer cuticle ought to be removed be- fore she would ever feel thoroughly clean
 Almost every woman has used various creams upon her face, and as result has been mortified at the dirt that rubbed off, especially when she had just given her face thorough cleansing with water and soap. This scientific treatment that many women are taking up is not at all a fad but satisfactory method for keeping the complexion clean and in a healthy condi- ton, just as exercise and Turkish baths stimulate the muscles and nerves of the body.
 Madame Fully will remain in Brming- nam week longer and she will continue to give her talks and demonstration which are extremely interesting and instructive.
