CUBAN ORPHAN ASYLUMS.
American Trained Nurses to Be PIac-
cd in Charge of Them.

/ Major Frank J. Ives. Chief Surgeon De-
| partment OF Matanzas and Santa Clara
| Cuba, in recent report to Surgeon Cen
| eral Sternberg. calls attention TO the open
| ing in Cuba of several orphan asyiums for
the purpose Of taking care OF the hundreds
OF homeless Cuban children.
Major Ives has decided to place Amer
lean trained nurses in charge of these
asylums, and in response to a request for
such nurses. Dr. Magee. Superintendent
OF the Army Nurse Corps, has secured
the services Of the following women. who
will shortly leave for Cuba: Mary A. Gal
lagher, Of Boston; Miss Jeanette Byers
ard Harriet L. McCord, both Of New
York; Ida NJ. hatcher, OF Brooklyn; Annie
Z. Lee. Of Baltimore; Irene F. Entwisle
Of Washington, and Mrs. Eliza j.. Dadmun,
Of Boston.
These nurses are to have 10 connection
with the Army or the Surgeon Generals
Office, but viii be responsible to Major
ives. who is the superintendent oGIsor-
rectional and charitable institutions I'M
der the insular government. They will be
required TO live in the institutions, and
will be paid from the Cuban insular funds
In referring to the employment of Ameri-
cans at The head Of the Cuban orphan
asylum, Major Ives says:
What these institutions above all
things require is an energetic, capable
woman to exert general. what might be
called sanitary. supervision over the chill
dron; to detect early any traces OF the
various skin troubles so prevalent down
there; 10 isolate cases Of ophthalmia and
other diseases which are so common in
those institutions and in addition to more
CT less instruct the rest of the employees
in the modern methods In taking care of
children. There is no doubt but the pres
ence Of such woman would materially
improve affairs.
Secretary Root has just received from
General Wood a copy OF an order requiring
monthly Inspections of all charitable in
situations and hospitals that are supported
wholly or in part BY the State. Il is di-
rected that the inspections be made by
an officer under the direction Of each de-
partment commander. The order says:
II the department commander becomes
satisfied from reports to him that any in
stitution is incfiiciently managed it must
be reported at once"
