Lu1g, OF the navy, who was the medi
cal officer with the fret regiment of ma
rnes 10 the Pekin relief exposition. %
this march, he says, there was compare
lively little illness, majority Of the
cases treated being due to sun stroke
and an unusual kind OF disrrhes, which
refused to respond 10 the standard
remedies. A most remarkable feature Of
. hese cases of heat stroke was the rap
idIty with which 1the men recovered,
often without apy treatment whatever
The following day they would take
their places 10 the ranks again. Sur
geon Lung reports that on the expedi-
ton the regiment was singularly free
from gunshot Injuries, notwithstsnd-
ing the fact that 1t was exposed
20 the FIRE OF the Chinese on
several occasions. At the taking
OF Pekin three men we're wounded.
The report speaks on the inssoitary
condition OF the city OF Pekin and says
tha. typhoid fever, dlpntheria aud
smallpox were very common. 10 the
city vaccination Ia prscticed quite
largely by iaoculation from arm to arm.
In endisg his report Surgeon Lung
says: The most interesting feature OF
the expedition was the opportunity
furnished TO observe the quslities OF the

SLAMS were big, heavy, phlezmalic men.
