In a book on military hygiene, Assist
ant Surgeon Munson, of the United States
army, considers many subjects, and among
them the army canteen. From the Of
fetal reports he finds that during the seven
years prior to the Introduction of the cam
teen an average of 1.214 men each year
were admitted to the hospitals for alcohol
ism. For the six years that the canteen
was established in the army the average
number of men treated in the hospitals
for alcoholism was 92S, a falling off Of
sc per cent. For the first period Of seven
years the average number OF assertions
was 9lS per cent. Of the whole army;
for the six years of the canteen the
average assertions a year were 4.53 per cent.
"a falling off of nearly so per cent. For
the seven years prior to the canteen the
average number of soldiers making savings
through the paymasters was 1913; during
the six canteen years the. number was
$3.50. The surgeons book was written and
In type before the abolition of the canteen
by Congress, so 1t cannot be said that his
work has been inspired by that fact. Like
all other statistics taken from the records
OF the army. those prepared by Surgeon
Munson tend TO prove that the canteen
promoted sobriety and discipline.

who have been employed as scouts are
anxious TO continue in the service. and, be-
sides these thousands Of natives are said
TO be clamoring for an opportunity TO en-
list. AS General Macarthur said in zone of
his reports; Their employment, beside
other transactions which brought the peo-
pie into business relations with the gov
eminent. clearly brought an additional
force to bear in the termination OF the
war" Still another view of the case was
presented in the report of a subordinate Of
hcer who said;
The terror inspired by the Macabebes was
entlreiy out or proportion to the damage
they did or were capable OF doing. The
insurgents We're taught that hey could
rot always rely upon being able TO disguise
themselves as amigos in towns undisturbed
so long as IL might suit their convenience,
and the people discovered that the Ameri-
cans possessed 2 Way OF finding out their
secret conSplracies against the government.
The effect was most salutary.
The section Of the law above quoted au-
thorizes the organization of native troops
to the number of 1900. and it has been de-
cided to organize them TO the full extent OF
the law. thus relieving an equal number OF
American troops and introducing a new
and important factor In the Americanizing
of the islands. One of the features at the
last Inauguration of President Mckinley
was a battalion OF native Porto Rican
troops; the next Inauguration procession
may have a battalion of native Filipinos.

Rio Famous Shin

CHESTER, Pa, Feb. 23-The steam
ship RIO de Janeiro was one of a fleet
OF Pacific Mail steamships built at the
Roach shipyard in this city, although
she was not contracted for by the Pa
dtic Mail Company, at the time of her
building
In 1887 the late John Roach conceived
the idea that fleet of nrst-class Amer
lean ships running to South American
ports would .build up American trade in
that section and prove a profitable in
vestment, and he organized company
among his friends and built and equip
ped two fine ships for the trade as his
share of the capitalization. 1t was be-
lieved that Congress would aid the en-
terprise by giving the line a subsidy for
carrying the mail, and the new ships
City of Rio de Janeiro and City of Para
were built for the service.
The City of Rio de Janeiro was
launched on March 6, 1873, and just one
month later, on April g. the City of Para
was launched. This was great occa-
sion in Chester and President Hayes and
several of his Cabinet were present as
guests of the veteran shipbuilders Pres
ident Hayes stood on the deck of the
City of Rio de Janeiro and from this
point saw the Para slide down the WAYS.
In speaking of the loss of the City of
Rio de Janeiro. John B. Roach presi-
dent of the shipbuilding company said
The rapid sinking of the ship was
due to the fact that she was not built
as modern ships are, with water-tight
bulkheads dividing the vessel up into
comparatively small compartments At
the time the Rio was built this practice
of insuring the safety of vessels had not
been developed as it is today The Rio
was staunch and steady ship, SPLEEN
didly constructed and had proved her
seaworthiness in a dozen typhoons, but
the lack of water-tight bulkheads was a
fatal defect in case the ship struck a

Commissioners Of Other Counties VIII

Coming Sum-

The Canton -Steubenville electric rail-
way Is beginning to take shape, and
a movement has been made in Jeffer-
son, Carroll and Stark counties looking
toward getting q franchise over the
highways along which III Is hoped to
build the road.
Horace Lee, night clerk of the Conrad,
has received letter from Engineer
Richard II. Lee, of Carrollton, asking
him to see the commissioners Of Stark
county with reference to securing q
franchise through Stark county.
Engineer Lee has been retained to
survey the route, as he is perfectly
familiar with the ground, especially be-
tween Carrollton and Steubenville, hav-
ug but few years ago located a rail-
yay line over the same route, which,
owever, was never built.
Horace Lee also received letter from
James M. Ferguson, of Steubenville, the
promoter of the scheme. He wrote ask
ing Horace to see the commissioners,
but as the information in the letters
was not sufficiently definite, he wrote
to Ferguson and to his brother for more
specific directions.
The project is one that has been talked
of for some years and estimates were
at one time made as to the cost Of the
road When first projected 1t was con-
sidered feasible, but the hard times
coming on the matter was dropped.
1t Is possible that the line might go
from Canton to Waynesburg or to NAL
vern, nither of which has direct rail-
way communication with Canton or
Carollton, thence to Carrollton, the
famous Harlem Springs resort, Amster-
dam, Richmond and Steubenville.
The difficult part of the line to build
| will be from Carrollton to Amsterdam.
The route is hilly and rough, but Ensl-
| neer Lee claims to have found a way
through the hills over which the line
could be built without much trouble.
| Should the line be constructed It is
| thought that an electric railray will also
| be built up the Sandy Valley from New
Philadelphia through Magnolia, Mall
| vern, Waynesburg, Oneida and Min
erva, with possibility that it might be
extended on through Bayard to AL
lance, connecteing with the Canton
Alliance line there.
1t is claimed that there is ample
capital back of the Canton Steubenville
scheme, and that IL the franchise IS
granted il will be built the coming
summer.
Just as soon as additional particulars
are received, the matter will be brought
to the attention of the commissioners by
Mr.. Lee.

The apparent explanation Of the oc.

but he escaped from the officers and
when caught again the children had
died. A long sentence was nevertheless
given by county Judge.

Charles W. Bean, a wealthy farmer
living in Portage county has been
placed under arrest. William c. Steele,

ng advantage of him in a horse deal.
s3oth parties are well known throughout

doctor.
An attempt has been made to withhold
the case from the public. However, the
details have been secured, and they are
about as follows:

Squire Jacob II. Reigner, the prose-
cutting witness charges the defendant
with misrepresentation. He alleges that

complainant in part pay. 1t is averred
that the check was paid by the Dime

money in partial payment of the horse
1t is further alleged that the defen-
dant represented to the complainant
that the horse was sound and safe, in
every respect, and a good road horse,
safe enough for a doctor to drive. The
complainant alleges that the horse is
not as represented, and that the defen-
dant unlawfully and falsely pretended
to defraud the complainant.
A constable served the warrant on
Bean, and a hearing of the case will
occur in few days. The defendant
alleges that the horse is just az 1t was
represented to be and that he did not
defraud Steele, as alleged.
The case will be firmly contested be-
tween the parties, both sides having
employed able attorneys to conduct
their issues.

From a Staff Correspondent.
Columbus, Dec. 31.-William F. War
horst, a former Stark county resident,
who is soldie ring in the Philippines
and who was pardoned from the peni-
tentiary conditional on his leaving the
state forever, has written an interesting
letter to Guard w. II. Farrell. at the
prison hospital. He says he likes life
in rhe Antipodes and he expects to re-
enlist when his time expires.
Warhorst is a member of Company II,
Twenty-eighth U. s. v. l., and the fact
that soon after Joining the army he was
promoted to the position of sergeant
demonstrates that he has conducted
himself prperly. He was an excellent
prisoner and always obedient.
His letter was written at Calambo, P.
l., under date of November Is. A de-
scription is given Of a number of en-
gagements in which the regiment par
ticipated and had men killed and
wounded. At present the command is
doing garrison duty. In six months the
regiment will be returned to the states
and mustered out. Warhorst will re-
main in the service and will probably
be kept on duty in the Philippines for
an indefinite period.
DEMOCRATIC CLUBS BANQUET.
The South Side Democratic club Of
Columbus, will give a banquet on jan

ton scheduled for earlier in the month.
Hon. James A. Rice, of Canton, will be
present and make an address. Other
speakers will be Hon. ]. s. C. Black

James A. Norton. of Tiffin: Congress-
man John j. Lentz, Of Columbus, and
others.
MILD OPPOSITION TO FORAKER.
The opposition to the reelection of
Senator Foraker by the Anti-Saloon
league is becoming lukewarm and It is
altgether likely that the agitation
against the senator will finally be droo-
ped. 1t is apparent to the league that
Foraker will practically have the solid
support of his party and In consequence
of this the officials have about conclud ed
to give up the fight.
The prospective retirement of Lieu
tenant Governor Caldwell at the COM
pletion Of his term, the Anti Saloon peo-
pie accept as a victory for their organi-
cation, and they will bend their ener-
gies toward compelling the Republican
party to nominate candidate known
not to be unfriendly to temperance
| legislation in the event of Caldwell not
standing for denomination.

Mayor Farley, of Cleveland. has sub
mitted an ordinance to the Cleveland
people, for franchise for a street rail-
way concern that needs a renewal.
Both the Leader and Plain Dealer in
sist that the ordinance does not give
the city enough, but here are some of
the concessions asked:
Six tickets for 25 cents for IL years
and seven for 25 cents the balance of
the grant. r.E f..
The payment of one-half the city's
share of abolishing all grade crossings
on the company's lines, Of which there
are nine. This alone ia estimated to
amount to 5000, 900, and is really the
equivalent of cash payment to the
city of approximately that sum.
The furnishing Of free current to
turn all the city drawbridges across
the Cuyahoga river, of which there are
half a dozen or more. This would save
year, and is equivalent to cash pay
ment Of that amount.
The payment to the city of per
cent of the gross receipts the first eight
years, per cent the next six years,
4 per cent the next six years and per
cent the last five years of the grant,
this percentage to cover earnings Of
all lines outside as well as within the
city.
To give the city for a street a strip
of private right of way which the COM
pany now owns and operates on in the
vicinity of Wade park, worth probably
$4,000.
To file with the city the cost of all
extensions and to also file when re-
Quired by the mayor list of all stock
holders OF the company with the amount
of their stock.
To pave is feet of the streets and
maintain the same, sprinkle the streets
II occupies and perform all the other
requirements now made.

pany having the exclusive use Of such
streets as 1t desires, without consider
alton to the city, declines to accede to

Ex-President Cleveland is oX in an
other magazine article, and this time
he makes some sensible suggestions
along the line Of national reforms. Mr.
Cleveland says that the tenure of the
presidential Office should be increased,
and that it should be provided that a
president can have but one term. He
says that the first two years are given
up to getting acquainted and the second
two to running for another term, so that
q president is really president but one
short term. On that one he has a new
congress on his hands for the first ses-
sion and a very brief session of the
congressional body in the second ses-
sion, so he gets little out of that. Mr..
Cleveland has been there both terms
and may be said to speak by the book
He suggests further that the election
of a president be drawn closer to the
people, and his recommendation is tan
tamount to a direct vote for president
The utterance Is the most popular Mr.
Cleveland has made for some time.
