A CORRECTION.

The publishers Of The CONSERVATIVE
take this opportunity of making cor
rections in the article, which ap-
peared in the issue of July
4th, under the title of 'The In
proved Condition of Cuba Under Ameri-
can Administration, contributed by
Col. Edgar S. Dudley.
In note at the bottom of the first
column on page 6, it was stated that
Col. Dudley was Judge Advocate of
Havana, Cuba We desire to make the
announcement that Col. Dudley was
Judge Advocate of the entire island Of
Cuba Havana was merely one of the
several military departments of the
military division of Cuba, under the di-
rect command of Major-G General Brooke,
u. S. A., who was at that time, military
governor of Cuba. Col. Dudley was
serving on Major General Brooke's
staff, and later served upon the staff of
Major General Wood, U. S. volunteers.
He had charge of the civil legal work
in connection with the military govern
ment and construction Of the affairs
of the island. The attention Of the
readers of The CONSERVATIVE is also
called to the fact that the article is
dated at Havana, Cuba. At the time of
publication, it was understood that Col.
Dudley was stationed at that place, but
we are informed by him that the article
was written in St. Paul, MINI.
We are indebted to Col. Dudley for
these corrections and take pleasure in
making them.

THE NOISE HABIT.
BECOMES n Necessary Dissipation to
the Nervous Dwcller I'm
Large City.

The New Yorker in time contracts
what may be called the noise habit.
Noise with him becomes dissipation.
His nervous system demands it, says
Munsey's Magazine. This is illustrated
by the sensations and experiences
when he goes into the woods or noun
tains after a continuous stay in the
city for many months. His first feel
ing is one of loneliness; something
seems to have suddenly gone out of his
life. Every tree seems to say: why
have you been so hot and noisy, my
little sir?" His sensations are some
what akin to those Of drunkard who
has been under alcoholic stimulation
for a long time, and suddenly has his
drink taken from him. His whole
nervous system feels the lack of the
irritation of the city noise, to which he
has become accustomed. The still
ness actually appals and depresses
him.
The streets of New York are deep,
narrow channels, and they are grow
ing constantly deeper, as the buildings
increase in height. These large re-
flecting surfaces on three sides OF him
make the condition of the man in the
street like that of the workman who
suffers from reflected noise while he
hammers rivets on the inside of a
boiler.
